Hours passed, and Lee finally woke up, her head pounding. Groaning, she sat up, her head immediately started to swim. She had no idea where she was, confused, she tried to remember what had happened to her before she got here. It was fuzzy for a second before her eyes widened.
"Gosh." she whispered, looking around her eyes wide. The door was right in front of her, and she slipped of the bed, walking toward it. Reaching out she turned the knob pulling on it. It didn't come open, and she cursed it, kicking it. What she didn't relize is she no longer had her shoes on, and her foot was now throbbing in pain. Cursing more, she bounced backwards, landing back onto the plush bed agian. After checking to make sure her foot was alright, she looked arond the room. The gray carpet was spotless, leading to a oak desk and a dresser nearby. There was another door by the the dresser that she thought must lead to the closet. After inspecting the room throughly, she went back to musing. Which one of the monsters rooms was she in and where were they? Were they going to kill her?

Damon sat at the dining room table. It was one of the massive, long ones shown on TV. Almost every seat was filled, discussion ranging from weather to mass murders to who got the best fuck in town last night. Damon was discussing with his father what to do with the woman, or rather how long was long enough to establish trust. He said 100 years, Damon said at between 1 week to 3 monthes. "I guess it is up to her." the father finally decided. Damon and his father, and anyone within earshot nodded in agreement.
Damon shortly dismissed himself and headed to his room. He had a tray of food and drink in his hands, but it was easily balanced in one. He unlocked and opened the door and set the tray on the table and looked at the now concious woman. "Good evening, Miss." he greeted and shut the door and sat in the chair accompinying the desk. "Are you hungry? Thirsty? Curious?"

Lee jumped when the door opened. She had been deep in her thoughts, for much time had passed since she woke up. Sitting up from where she was laying, she looked up at the man, then at the tray. "Where am I?" She asked, feeling it was a stupid question as soon as it came out of her mouth. The food smelled delicious, but she didn't trust it, not wanting to eat anything out of a house she didn't know, or offered by people who had just kidnapped her. Was it kidnapping if she was an adult? Would it be adult napping?
While she was thinking, the man was looking at her, and she jumped when she finally met his eyes. Scooting as far away from him as she could on the big bed, she regarded him over a pillow like a child.

Damon blinked at her, watching her movements. She'd been laying down when he'd sat down, and now she was hiding behind a pillow. "You are in my room and my family's mansion." he replied to her question. He stood and set the tray closer to her. "Eat. It's not poisonous. I can call over another kidnappy of ours that was let out recently to tell you that if you'd like." he offered and gave her a piece of information. They'd kidnapped before. "Now, if you do not mind my asking, what is your name and how old are you?"

((OH! I didn't make Lee a profile!! <smacks head>))
Lee looked at him suspiciously. She wasn't ready to trust anything he said, or anyone he planned on having tell her anything. They had kiddnapped before? The information hit her straight in the face, and she widened her eyes, reacting without thinking. Raising the pillow she thew it at him and the tray of food. "GO AWAY!" She shouted, slipping off the bed, and then crosing the room in haste. She pulled at the door, and found it open. Running out of it, she turned the first corner she found, and ducked into a room. Thankfully it was empty, and she hid herself in a dark corner. Seconds passed, and tears started to fall down her face. The shock of her situation, and how bad it could become was starting to sink in, and it scared the hell out of the twenty four year old college student.

((lol. i was wondering about that. i found a Lea by you, but then it wasn't this girl...))
Damon watched her run and didn't follow. He knelt down and began to pick up the fallen food. He set the tray of food on the desk and used one of his dirty shirts to clean up the liquids that had fallen. He hated when they kidnapped; they all reacted similarly to this. I don't understand...Don't we seem nice? he thought, thinking that he had been ruder than kidnapping her and forcing her to stay somewhere where she didn't know anyone and was under their control.
He walked out and followed her scent and stood out of site but outside the room she was in. "There is no escaping here, Miss. There is a barrier that will block you from being seen by other people, and that will block you from leaving the property." he told her softly. "It is best you get used to here for now."
"And you could always play with us if you get bored!" three voices sounded, belonging to children. 2 little girls, about 8 or 9 looking, and a little boy, about 10 looking, appeared in the doorway. They all looked human, and escatic about having someone new to play with.

Lee didn't move from her corner, pretending that they weren't there. Maybe if she could convince herself it was a dream, it would turn out that it was. Her mind was shutting down, overwelmed once more by the amount of information coming in it. It swam with questions, and fears, the child in her acting up after all these years of being the tough girl. She definently wasn't tired, after all, she had just passed out. Actually she wasn't sure she could even speak if she wanted to.
What was happening to the girl that beat up Alex in high school? That cussed out her one and only boyfriend when he cheated on her, and then dropped him on his ass outside her door? Slowly she was sinking, and she didn't know if she wanted to come back up.

Damon motioned for the children to run along. "You can play with her later." he promised them, and they smiled happily and ran off, playing tag. He walked into the room and watched her from the opposite wall. "You okay? You look worse than I did when the curse first set in."

Once agian Lee didn't move, her head balanced on her knees. She wasn't fine, but she wan't going to admit that to anyone, at the moment she just wanted to find this to all be a dream. After a few second's of silence, she finally looked up, her green eyes full of even more tears. "How could I be ok?" She whispered, glaring at him. "Monsters are real." Burying her face agian, she squeezed her legs tighter to her body.
Growing up as an orphan had been hard, she didn't even have the reassurence that her parents were dead, or just plain didn't want her. The people she lived with for years told her that social services just found her on the steps of a building. The same building she had been at this afternoon... Realizing that, she jerked, looking up at the man. She'd always had strange dreams... Could this be the reason?
((No, she's not their relative or anything like that, I'm just twisting the plot a bit))

((okay))
Damon frowned and stared at her. "I'm not a monster. Monsters are scary...Gargoyles aren't monsters, though by day we look monstrous." he murmured. He watched her warily. "What?" he asked, noticing the jerky movement. "Have I done much to make it seem like I'm going to hurt you, Lady?"

Lee looked up, her eyes focusing on him. If he was there when she was a baby, exactly how old was he? Was he always there? Questions swam through her head as she studied the man before her.
"No. I'm not scared of you. I just... Don't want this to be real..." She said quietly, loosening her hold on her legs.

"Oh? Why not?" he asked, intrigued. Most people he met claimed to want more interesting lives. Did this girl not want one? Damon held a hand out and played with a strand of her hair absently once again. He liked to play with hair.

Lee was suprised on how he went back to be so relaxed, even reaching out and playing with her hair. Her eyebrows furrowed, and she studied the guy in front of her. "It brings up a lot of questions about my life." She replied softly. "What's your name?" Putting her hand on his, she stopped him from playing with her hair. It was way too comforting, she had always loved her hair to be played with. It relaxed her, even put her to sleep sometimes.

Damon watched her movements, her putting her hand on his and stopping him. "Does that bother you?" He asked her softly, referring to the playing with her hair. "And my name is Damon. What is yours?" he replied to her question. Questions about her life? Like what? he wondered, but did not find it in his place to ask.

"No. I like it too much." Lee answered back just as softly, her hand still on his. "My name is Lee." She replied. Damon? Doesn't that mean demon? She looked him over, and found nothing really that explained why she really ran from him to begin with. It had to be the knowledge of what he was that shocked her, not what he looked like. He appeared so very human it was strange.
Releasing her legs without thinking about it, she moved closer to him. He radiated comfort, as he had radiated danger before.
