For Tybalt I had to get two pictures because I couldn't decide between the two, on which suited him the best. I don't have anyone else I am looking for at the moment, is there anyone else that you are wishing to see what they look like in my mind? :)

Lily is standing over me. I push myself up on my hands confused. I breathe in and my throat screams in protest.

"Are you OK?" She asks, but something in her tone makes me cautious.

"Yeah. Thanks." I say hesitantly. I don't know what's wrong with me, she's a friend. I cough slightly to alleviate a tickle in my throat.

"What's the matter with you?" She asks.

"Hm?"

"What made you like this?" She elaborates.

"Oh, um..." I start not knowing how to continue. "It was something I drank." I decide on being truthful.

"Oh, no, not that. I already knew that." She says, looking relaxed for the first time. "You look confused. Let me explain." She says smiling, acting kind. I don't say anything, waiting. "Well, I guess it started a couple of days ago. I was approached by Kyle, the teacher..." I clench my fist when I hear his name. She smirks when she sees this. "You know him? Outside of school?" She asks, already knowing the answer. I glare at her. She chuckles but continues.

"He told me a story about his life, and you. What you are. He also explained to me his aim, and what he needed to do. I offered to help him get there faster. I mean, have you seen him? Anyway I told him about this party and he devised a plan. Weren't you curious as to why Tiffany's dad came home early? Kyle was behind that. The drink? That was me, Kyle gave me the blood. He knew what you would do and techniques you would use, and told me where to stand."

"See how easy it is to get to your friends? All you have to do is offer immortality." Kyle decides to add.

"What has he promised you?" I ask, ignoring him. "Because whatever it is, he won't go through with it."

"He doesn't need to do anything."

"What's that meant to mean?" I ask.

"You see when he came to me, he asked me to get something. Your blood."

"Why? Why mine?" I ask.

"Apparently, it has properties that Kyle wants."

"What has this got to do with you?"

"While I get your blood, I can take some for myself. He says that it'll be better with your blood." She says reaching into her bag. Seconds later her hand emerges with a knife. I try to scuttle back, still too weak to stand up. She walks like a predator towards me, and to be honest she is one. She falls down on top of me, trying to stop me struggling. She lifts my hand up, bringing the knife to it. I feel a searing pain in my hand. I'm not going to let a human get the better of me - I lift my head up, head-butting her. She exclaims out and falls back and off me, having been knocked out. I sigh, brushing myself off. Still weak, I reach for her wrist and drink some of her blood. I drop it, and push myself to my feet. I look down at Lily, with a pitying look on my face as I hear rapid footsteps behind me. I turn, this time faced with Hunter.

Here you go! Hope you liked it! I will be posting the next part on Sunday. :)

Is that how you imagined Tybalt?
