"I can imagine. That would be rather entertaining." Marina smiled. "I remember meeting Sage and she did not know about vampires."

Was her first encounter with a vamp Anthony? He furrowed his brow for a moment trying to remember if Anthony had ever told him how he had met Sage.

Marina tilted her head in thought. "There were a few there. I don't remember which one she found out about first."

Interesting. I love to watch people's reactions when they find out about us. I've seen just about every reaction possible. He smiled as they made it to a clearing. It seemed as though they had walked a ways.

I've had a few that went running for the hills they were so mortified. Others like yourself, accepted me easily.

Back in the seventeen and eighteen hundreds, people were fearful. They saw us as pawns to do the devil's work. The Salem Witch trials - had validity to them. Even today some are afraid of us. He smiled down to Marina; and thank you for kind words, my lady.

And I believe you are right. No matter how many centuries I live, there will always be humans that fear us. That in a way made Fyn sad, but it was just a fact of the immortal life that he had to deal with.

I sure hope so, human nature hasn't changed much in the past couple of hundred years. Yes some of the 'race' relations had gotten better, but it always seemed as if something new was popping up.

He looked up to his surroundings and smiled, even though he wasn't quite sure where they had wandered too. Any of this look familiar to you, Marina?

Mikeal reached a nice patch of soil at the crest of a hill where he summoned the the ground to open for him. He sank into the earth the way his old master had taught him, the healing way of the elders. Closing his eyes Mikeal slept.

Marina glanced around then softly laughed. "It looks like we're in the woods. Beyond that, no." She shook her head.

Fyn chuckled at Marina's statement. He looked around once again and they continued on their way. Maybe sooner or later they would figure out where they were. We'll come out somewhere, I'm sure.

Marina smiled. "Well, at least I didn't get lost alone." She tried to think of something helpful. "Well, I'll only know where we are, if you smell herbs or lots of animals. More than you should smell in the woods, anyway."

Would that mean we are near someone's place that you know? He wondered if anyone really did live out this far.

"Well, I would imagine Sage's cabin smells a lot like herbs. And if there are an over abundance of animals, we've moved back around to where the hunting grounds are. Which would mean we would be semi close to where I live."

"Or the beach. A section of the trees start off near the beach."

I'm sure we'll wind up somewhere. And if we near Sage's place, I'm sure I'll smell Anthony. They continued on, Fyn holding branches back so Marina wouldn't have to try and dodge them.

Marina nodded in agreement. "Eventually." She smiled small and softly thanked him for moving branches for her.

Fyn walked a bit in silence, knowing sometimes that quiet was welcomed. After a few more yards, he caught a whiff of ocean. We must be nearing the ocean, I smell the salt water.

This is true. They stepped out of the woods and onto the soft sand and looked both ways. Looking to the right, he decided that would be the way to go. Worst case, we can always turn and go the other direction. He smiled to her as he pulled out his sunglasses.

"I love the beach. So even if we have to turn around, I'm alright." Marina paused for a moment before asking. "Are you going to be alright in the Sun?" She knew some vampires were different than others. Some tolerated the Sun, while others could not. And she was unsure which Fyn was.

He couldn't help but smile at her thoughtfulness. I'll be fine for awhile. Luckily we have the daywalker vamp gene. He chuckled a little.
