They removed most of plants and replace them with flowers. The place where I did my blacksmithing was demolished. A greenhouse stood where it was. The lone cottage not far from the main house stood as a reminder of the people that used to live here. I looked beyond the wall and saw the place where the gentlemen's club used to be. Not much has changed there. I turned to see that the rest of the family was here. Some were rubbing their eyes as they shook off their sleep. The others were yawning and scratching their sides. The sight made me laugh. They heard the sound and looked to see me. They ran like they had seen their grandma. I hugged them all and they sat down to hear what I have been doing. They were bummed they they didn't hear me scream at the sight of what was left of the cornfields. I saw that Anya was trying to say something but had no courage to do so. I asked her what was going on but she denied anything was going on. It was her daughter Elsa that blurted out that they were in financial crisis. They had accumulated some debt so they could lose the house if they couldn't pay. I happily ran to the birch tree that I made everyone swear not to cut down. I dug out the small treasure box. I took a few pieces of the jewelry to Anya. Mira promised to pay off the debt that very morning. To her calculations the jewels were worth at least five million dollars. That was more than the money they owe.
Finally the sun rose and I had to get to the motel. The others wished me well as I changed my looks to be the disguise me. I walked out to see my security waiting for me. They looked like they had seen me change my appearance. They seemed adamant on answers. I walked past them casually. They caught up with me. They politely asked me if the other vampires or werewolves can change their looks. I made it clear that it was something only I can do. They asked me what the others can do they can't do. I casually answered that vampires can view a person's entire memory with a drop of blood. Werewolves were able to replicate the physical traits of a person with a bite. This seemed to piss them off. I retorted that it was the reason I refused to tell them anything. They froze for a moment and then thanked me for being honest. One of them asked me which of the ones can climb walls. I happily replied, "Both sides can climb walls but werewolves have to destroy the wall to do it. Vampires can do without wrecking anything. The werewolves I see these days are small. The ones I had seen before this modification are three times larger." They froze at the thought of seeing such a huge werewolf.
I found myself standing in line for the van that took us to the place where the cornfields were. I extended my hearing when one of the werewolf decided to say something in my ears. I had a shooting pain in my head. I actually punched him. I swore like a sailor silently. I plucked a flask of blood and drank it. I felt my hearing get restored. I gave him an angry look before I walked off to hear what Mrs Anderson was saying.
We were told to help the locals build houses. They were building it in a place where a lot of awesome history had happened. I coughed as the teacher continue what we are supposed to do. I helped a few hammer a few nails and then I extended my senses to find the dead bodies. I looked at the dogs and approached them quietly. I scratched them behind the ear and commanded them to dig the corpses out. They shot out like a bullet and started to dig the bodies. They found a skeleton and one of the workers cried out dead body and we had to stop for the police to arrive to question the owner if they knew what had happened.
We had to go back to the motel while I went back to Valentina. The security followed me and I asked them to go back to the city. They made it clear that I had meddled in a missing person's case. I said that no one can prove I did anything so give it a rest. I stood in front of the door and changed back to me. They opened the door and cried out, "Sasha darling come in before you catch a cold." I walked in and they closed the door. Mira happily declared that they were officially debt free. I gave them the bad news that I am going back to Angel city but I promised to come back soon.
The next day we had to go back to Angel city. I was sad to go but made a promise to come back in three months. They hugged me with joy to know that I was still alive and kicking. It turns out Cain killed himself because his pain was too much to bare. They burned his body and scattered his ashes for good measure. I gave them all his before I left for the city. I was taken there in the car assigned to me by the vampire council. I didn't get an earful since there was no proof that I had done anything other than play with a few dogs.
I returned for the weekend so I was taken to a new penthouse that was made in my name. I looked out the window and saw two people acting weird. The security said that they will send someone to find out what was going on. I told them that there is no need since I came hear quite well. This pissed them off since they didn't have that either. I made a promise to keep my mouth shut. They noticed it and made it clear that they are not jealous. I made it clear that they will pass it along and trouble will start. So they promised to keep it a secret. I used used hypnosis to make sure they can't tell anyone. They found out about that gift a few weeks later. When they brought over a few of their buddies for a football match. They tried to complain but they would become mute. Or their words would slur or they will change the subject. Their friends were in a state of confusion. When they left Travis asked me if I had done anything to shut them up. I confessed that I did. I knew that they can't keep their mouths shut. They asked me which ones had the ability to do that. I smiled, "Vampires are the ones capable of doing this. You will delete all the footage and make sure not to save any. The purpose is to stay hidden. Not to whine about what you can't have to create more problems. If you have kept anything about me then destroy it now. After that you will forget what I did in Lush views. You will forget about Valentina. Delete the security feed now." All of them left and came a few minutes later. The kitchen had a slightly smokey smell to it.
I smelled the werewolves to tell them apart. They smell like pine trees, wet dirt and sweaty socks. The vampires smelled like olives and figs. I made them forget the whole I am different from them. I tried to be careful about what I do around. They noticed my behavior so they try their best not to be jumpy.
I was taking a midnight jog went I heard people from machine city talk about finding me. They were sure that I will fall into their trap. They were talking about they had old surveillance records of me. They spoke of having a lot of info of me as proof that vampires exist. So I followed the creep till I made him fall and collected a sample of the person's blood. I used it to see what the facility had. What I saw shocked me. They had vampires and werewolves locked up there for experiments. They even had photos of me when I was a cop. They had videos of me and my medical records. They knew that I was hidden away somewhere. They were trying to narrow the location to get me. This pissed me off.
I knew I had to break in. The trick was to keep him away while I do it. I approached him and hypnotized him into handing me his access pass and other items. I snuck in and destroyed my records. I released the vampires and werewolves that they were experimenting on so that they can be treated by the council. They knew it was me so they kept their mouths shut till they got to the safe house. I blew up the building for good measure. I made sure to check them for any sort of tracker. When I found one they simply dug it out. They were pleased to see both sides were getting along. I gave the creep back what I had taken. I made sure to wear latex gloves so he couldn't dust it for prints or anything. I made sure he didn't remember meeting me at all. I asked for a gun but one of the security used a captive bolt stunner and killed him. The old ones finally gave me a title Sasha the infiltrator. Personally I like to be just Sasha.
