[center][i]Life is an endless cycle, 
The same routine day in and out, 
It was exhausting as well as interesting [/i][/center]
[center] Time... [/center]
He was sick of the repetitive motions of life. Pale fingers reached up to card through silky black strands. It was night and with it the clock on the farthest wall seemed to mock him, it's constant ticking filling his ears. He had no desire to rise from the chair he sat in, his head falls back against the cushioned padding with a soft sigh leaving his lips. His home was silent and for that Kieran was grateful for, the sound of the front door opening had Kieran frowning. 

He preferred solitude then the company of others. 

Sky-blue eyes opened as the door to the room he was in opened, a soft snort drawing his attention to the left side of the room. Standing in the doorway was a young-looking male, his glowing emerald eyes focused on him. Kieran rose to his feet in one fluid movement and arched a silent brow, his guest raised one right back. Clicking his tongue on the roof of his mouth, Kieran moved forward to exit the room. The hand on his shoulder still him for a moment, sky-blue locked with emerald-green. 

“I'm going to wander around for a bit. Can I trust you here alone, Ryanair?” Kieran asked with a tilt of his head, the blonde vampire before him snorted softly and nodded. Kieran remained still for a moment before moving out of the doorway, his guest moving to sit in the seat he'd just unoccupied. As he made his way down the stairs to exit the house, Kieran wondered briefly why he'd bitten the male three years prior. Ryanair had been dying in an alleyway when Kieran had found him, he hadn't thought about it until after it was done. Exiting the front door, the vampire took a moment to scan the empty road. He didn't mind the small village he and Ryanair had moved to, it was silent and allowed them to move about as they wished. With a blink, Kieran began to walk down the cobblestone path.

He could feel the bond with Ryanair relaxing at the back of his mind. A small smile twitching his pale lips upwards as his mind wandered to the night he'd bitten the other. 

 [i]It had been a rainy night. Kieran had just finished drinking from someone when the smell of blood reached his nose. His pace slowed as he tired to pick up where the scent was coming from, his eye shifted to the right as he began to walk. His steps were quiet and quick, his cloak billowing out behind him as the rain lashed around him. Three streets down and two corners later, Kieran found where the smell was coming from. The male was curled up on his side, his wheezing breathes reaching his ears even with the rain pouring around them both. His body was barely clothed and several different wounds littered his skin, Kieran had paused for a moment. Taking the few steps left between them, Kieran crouched down and reached for the other male. Pale fingers gently parted wet blonde bangs away from the others face, Kieran noted that the others lips were blue and trembling. 

His heartbeat lurched at the touch, before slowing and returning to it's slow rhythm. Kieran moved his hands until a hand was holding the males neck and the other arm held his torso half-upright. Lashed and cuts were visible as Kieran brought the male closer,  he stilled when a soft sound filled the air. Blinking and pulling away slightly, sky-blue eyes met glassy emerald, neither moving for a moment or two. 

“I can help you.” He whispered softly,  a memory tugging at his mind of sand and sea-water. The male tried to pull away, only to still with what Kieran noted as pain raced through his body. The other blinked slowly as if trying to concentrate, blue lips opened as if to speak. A streak of lightning and boom of thunder had the male trying to curl up into a ball. Kieran noted then how small he looked, he must have been younger then seventeen. 

“How…?” Were the words that drew his attention from his musing, Kieran allowed his fangs to retract and his eyes to glow. The heart he'd been unconviously listening to, leapt into a jack-rabbit pace that Kieran knew wasn't good. He smoothed his features and with it the male relaxed in degrees, after a few minutes Kieran decided to answer. 

“Do you wish to live?” Was all he asked as he gently tugged the male closer, the smell of blood wasn't tantalizing now. He felt the other shiver and the sudden grip of fingers on his shoulder had him stilling. The flex of the fingers told him the others response, with a gentleness he didn't ponder until after, Kieran bit the other. The taste of his blood reminded him of someone else, the smell of sand and sea-water returning as he drank. After a moment, he pulled away and glanced down at the male. He was still now, his eyes blinking as he turned his head and nodded. Kieran removed his right hand and with at flick, he bit into his own wrist. He pressed it to the others lips and lifted the head in his other hand, the male bit and began to drink. [/i]

Coming to a stop where the road changed to grass covered fields, Kieran glanced up at the sky. After that, they'd moved and with it a new life had started. They were family to those who asked, cousins that hasn't seen each other in years they said. With a shake of his head, he checked the bond and found it lax which told him that Ryanair had fallen asleep. He began to walk once more,  the urge to go down to the beach he found a couple years back filled him. His hands moved to his pockets, where he found a small necklace. With a roll of his shoulders, he leapt up and continued his journey on the rooftops. The necklace acting like a honing device, he remembered the girl he'd met all those years ago. His first fledgling, the thought filtered across his mind as he continues forward. 

As he makes his way out of their town and headed toward the place where he met her, he allows his mind to relieve those moments. They'd been desperate, Kieran more on the hunger side then what his fledgling had needed.  He hadn't meant to bite her, though his limit had been reached and she was there so he did. As he neared the town that they'd met, he slowed his pace and jumped down from the current rooftop he stood on. He wondered how she'd react, with a shrug of his shoulders he began to walk. 

He could feel her here, maybe she could feel him as well.
