Prologue:

Tecusa

"Help"I heard the shrill and timid voice of a little girl.Was she lost? What had happened?It had been so long since I have heard a voice especially a little girls,I searched for the little girl for her scent was easy to find.She smelled like strawberries, sweet and simple.I reached her and saw her.Tears were evident in her eyes and her hair was slick and straight

"What is wrong"I asked the panting little girl.her face was pale and and sweaty from running.Her heart beat was fast and was continuous, she was human.She ran her little fingers through her platinum blonde hair and let out a soft sob.Her innocence reminded me of a time I was once lost.I hadn't spoken in months and the words came out like fire and scratched my throat.

"I'm lost"she cried.When she spoke of her misfortune I too,tuned into her pain and suffering.For I have been lost all my life.Those were the first words I spoke after I was lost as well.I hadn't spoken in months and my heart was churning for the little girl that stood before me

Her eyes were timid filled with fear and the smell of it was evident.I stood up and gripped her small warm hand in mine,It gave me a remembrance of a time when I was too small to do anything,then that all changed

"Where are we going?"she asked.I pointed north,I could practically feel the civilisation but I knew I had to be quick,If I had gotten caught.God knows what they would do to me.

"Is that home?"She asked her voice scratching against her throat,I nodded and she gripped my hand tighter

"I'm Clover"She said,my eyes snapped to her.

"What?"I snapped.My head beamed toward her for an explanation,had I been found.The harshness of my voice hurt my throat.

"Clover, that's my name"she softly explained. Her pale cheeks and her light blonde hair that consisted of freckles on her cheeks

Although She has my middle name for her first name.We looked nothing alike but our feeling were another story.

"Tecusa"I introduced slightly,my voice had felt raw at my outburst.

"You don't like talking do you?"She said.I nodded a subtle yes.Her innocence was beguiling, She has no cares in the world.To be honest I haven't seen a human in months.I haven't made contact with one in eleven.As we reached closer to the near by town her heart began beating faster and slower in anticipation and relief.I reached the borders of town and I let her hand go.Her hand gripped mine for a couple seconds longer as if clinging for life.

"Don't you want to come?"she asked holding her hand out,I shook my head no

"Are you in trouble?"She asked.I nodded again

"I won't tell anyone I saw you?"she said.I gave her a thankful nod.I could feel all what she felt,my sense have been heightened since i've been around the first human i've seen in quite a bit.She felt sorry for me ,and the need to rip her throat had vanished

"Do not feel sorry for me"I said.I felt the necklace on my neck get cold and it glowed and I knew it was time to go

They were close

"Goodbye Tecusa"she waved.I reached into my pocket and gave her one of the five charms I had left.

"It brings good luck"I softly explained.My voice was so quiet it could have en a whisper,but he looked at me,notifying me she had heard.She smiled and took it graciously.She looked at it with magnificence and wonder.

I remember when I got my first charms and it is the one that remains on my necklace.The one that tells me when my kind is near.Whilst she stared at it I ran off before she noticed my departure and kept running.

It hurts every time,when I run not physically just in my mind.It makes me think that i will have to run for the rest of my life and I will never stop.They will find me and when they do,I will end up a killer,more than I already am.Running is my only choice and although it pains me every time, I know that i'd rather run than be there.
