It was late night at the Covenant, around 11:30 pm. Becca was setting up to go out on her patrol for the night. She finished zipping up her boots and pulling on her leather jacket. She checked over all of her weapons once more before she walked out of the armory. She took a sharp corner, nodding to a few fellow vampires before heading down a staircase, down another hall way and out another door that lead out in to an alley way at the back of the covenant.
She walked a few blocks before reaching her patrol area. She requested this are for one reason and one reason only, to keep an eye on Mathias' men. This was not only the are where he kept most of his watches up, but he also checked in on more often. She knew the reasons why were because of the vampire activity so close by. His crime group was starting to catch on to their spots and their investigations were starting to worry the covenant. They didn't want to harm innocent humans unless need be. They rarely hunted in this area unless in desperate need and only caused chaos when lycans crossed there paths.
Becca sighed as she found her spot on the edge of a roof. She slowly skimmed the area to get her bearings and then relaxed in to her watch mode, scanning the area below every few minutes while she watched across the roofs above. Her senses were on high alert, listening to every sound and taking in every smell. If anything seemed off she would be gone in a heartbeat to investigate.

The sounds of men shouting could be heard down below. Its source? Mathias and his men exiting out of a building, following behind a small group of staggering men. The men were rivals. Rivals whom Mathias had caught trying to steal from him. Their punishment? Death.
The men were positioned on their knees, concrete their only friend. Rain began to pour down as Mathias had all but one shot in the head, execution style. The last one had been the leader of the group. Matt had began to take off his shirt and jacket, becoming bare chested as he nodded to the man. The gesture were simple. A fight to the death.
He had one of his men hand the guy a knife and he balled his fist up. As the man came to his feet, he smirked and blew him a kiss. Sure, there was the possbility he may die, but he knew he wouldn't. He was highly trained in fighting. "Let's go."

Becca's head snapped to the commotion about a block from her. But what really caught her attention was one of the voices she picked up, Mathias. She quickly stood, running across her roof top and with quick, flawless grace she jumped to the next rooftop. She landed silently, moving across the rooftops in complete stealth. She was invisible to the human eye with her quick movements. She finally stopped on a roof above them, the darkness hiding her as she pulled the hood of her cloak up. She peered over the side and watched the scene.
Her stomach turned watching Mathias do the dirty work. She never imagined him killing someone, let alone execution style. It was something the covenant rarely did with out a trial before hand. But what really made her want to leap off that roof to stop the horror before her was when Mat took a stance to fight this man. She stared down at the man across from him, reading him, taking in his scent, watching his body movement. Rage started to fill her at the thought this man was about to harm her love, though she knew it was Mat's choice. She breathed, to calm herself, but braced to make a move if anything got out of hand.

The fight was over before it began. The man charged at him. And with a swift motion, Matt took into the air, jumping toward the man weidling the knife and hitting him square across the chin, knocking him out instantly. The man dropped to the ground with a thud and Matt stood over him, a smirk covering his face. He had the man dragged off and began to get dressed. It was a rather quick moment for him, not even getting him excited or short of breath. He sat on the curb and pulled his cell phone out, calling the one person that clouded his mind. He waited for Becca to answer as he looked up at the night stars.

Becca blinked and then smirked. Well at least she got to see first hand that he could take care of himself, that made her feel better. But what would bother her was this dark side of him that she had never seen before or would probably never see when he was around her. She watched him sit on the curb, taking out his cell. She suddenly jumped, feeling her phone vibrate in her pocket. Her foot slipped on the wet rooftop, causing her to fall backwards off the ledge and on to the roof. The ledge crumbled causing small rocks to fall to the side walk below.
She landed on her back and groaned lightly. She sucked in a breath before rolling over and reaching for her cell. She saw it was Mat and her heart nearly stopped. She scrambbled to ehr feet and too off to a few rooftops away. She sat in a dark, covered corner out of the rain and cleared her throat before answering, making her self sound like she had been asleep.
"Hello?"

He heard the small rocks fall and immediately turned his head in that direction. He looked up at the rooftop and frowned, swearing he saw something in the shaodws, but as Becca answered he shook his head. Perhaps it was his mind playing tricks on him. The dark did that to you. "Hello my love, were you sleeping?"

She smiled hearing his calm soothing voice, it made her feel better knowing he was okay. She continued with her fib.
"No, no honey....I only dozed off."
She faked a yawn.
"Are you alright? Is everything okay?"

He smiled and licked his lips at her voice. "No Im not ok, I miss holding you. That poses as a problem my love." He chuckled at his corny line and stood, pacing the sidewalk as he held the phone to his ear.

She gave a light laugh, but hid her nervousness now. If he was hinting he wanted to come over that night, now she had a problem.
"Oh really...Well I miss being in your arms."
She smiled now, she really did.
"Is something bothering you? You sound tense love."
She glanced around, checking her bearings.

He shook his head although he knew she couldnt see him..or so he thought. "No Im fine, had a slight problem at work, nothing to frieght over although. How long you gonna be up? I may stop by later tonight when Im done here." He leaned against the wall of the building.

She wanted to kick herself now. She composed and started to come up with a plan.
"I donno honey, I'm pretty tired, I had a long evening with my friends. Maybe another hour or so. When do you think you'll be here?"

He looked at his watch and smirked. "I can actually get there in twenty minutes or so, nothing much going on at work so I have nothing better to do." He placed his free hand in his pocket and bit his lower lip.

Now she really did want to kick herself. She stood and started to move across the rooftops as silently as possible, keeping her breathing steady. She jumped to the next roof over the sidewalk he was at, hoping he didn't see her.
"Okay honey, I'll um, leave the door unlocked for you. I'll either be curled up on the couch or in bed okay?"

He nodded, realizing once again she could not see him. A smile covered his lips. "Sure my love." He saw something go by over his head but ignored it, perhaps a bat or a bird. He shrugged it off and ended the phone call. He immediately got into his car and started it, pulling off with speed and skill, heading for an apartment he didnt know was empty.

Becca ended the phone call and stuffed her phone in to her pocket. She then took off at full speed. it would take her at least 15 minutes to reach her apartment and then she had to get in it, get all of her gear off, hide it and get in her PJ's and in to bed. She took steady breathes and stayed focus on her her destination, moving in a fast blur.
