- - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - Noah groaned as he stood up, feeling the kinks in his back that really shouldn’t be there. He had been out and about all day, first having gone to the beach to supposedly meet up with Lexi who then ditched him last minute due to some emergency with one of her friends, to saving some girl from drowning at said beach since the lifeguard had been too busy trying to hit on everything that moved instead of watching out for those swimming. He remembered the dazed eyes as he swam towards the surface and the thankfulness that followed. It was a good feeling but it had been an even better one when he put the lifeguard in his place. He had already called the number on the back of the lifeguard tower and reported him, not to be vindictive but to let his superiors know that someone could have died because of his negligence.
After leaving the beach he had gone for a run and then ran back to get his motorcycle. He had a few things to do this afternoon meaning that he had go to back to his house and clean up before making his way back towards town. Inside he took a quick shower before drying off just as quickly. He needed to get a few books to present to his class from the library which closed fairly early in a small town such as Mystic Falls. He also needed to grab his order from the bike shop as he needed a new helmet since his had gotten scuffed up when it had fallen. Long story.
He threw on a pair of dark wash jeans paired with a black belt. Also slid on a tight gray t-shirt and paired it with his leather jacket that he often wore when riding the motorcycle. Forgoing any hair gel since he needed to pick some of that up as well he threw on a beanie and his aviator sunglasses and he was good to go. The motorcycle ride took him a very short amount of time and upon arriving he parked at the community center, figuring he would grab something to eat later on that evening before heading home. He sat his helmet down but before he could go anywhere he heard a muffled noise from behind him.
Speeding towards where he heard the sound he muttered under his breath a curse that was not in any language that anyone could identify (unless one knew Romanian which not many people did.) Not even realizing he had slipped into a language that he and his brother had learned while still human specifically to cuss without alerting their parents. He saw a young girl, one he knew well, and one that he wasn’t sure why the hell she was in an alley in the middle of the day without a daylight ring and yet here she was and he was not amused. “Katheryn Anne O’Connor! What are you doing here?”

[/font][/size]atheryn 'Kathy' Anne O'Connor groaned. Buffy was going to kill her. And if Buffy didn’t do it, Angel would when he got home. She had officially made the dumbest decision in the land of decision making and here she was regretting it but at the same time she really needed to get out of the house. She had been cooped up for days between the sun and the fact that no one had the time to do anything recently with the craziness of Glory dying down so everyone getting back into the swing of training, patrolling, and whatever else it was that those people did. Buffy hadn’t wanted her to go out by herself which Kathy fully understood but at the same time she had taken care of herself for over two hundred years and could handle not being killed for a night or two on her own. She was grateful that the young woman cared about her but at the same time her own childish instincts were screaming at her to tell the girl that she wasn’t a child (even though she was) and that she could take care of herself (which physically she really couldn’t) but she bit them back, not wanitng to hurt the other woman’s feelings as she really did love her, she was just getting cabin or really house fever. This had led her to where she was now, in an alley behind the Richmond Community Center in the middle of the day. She had waited until the day was overcast (which seemed to be a good time) and had taken a dark black umbrella and gone out for a stroll, having never ventured during the day at least not in a good long while as it made her nervous, she had stuck close to home. She had seen a camp going on at the community center and went to investigate when her umbrella had been blown away by a gust of wind. If that wasn’t bad enough she had watched with dread as the clouds had moved quickly away from blocking the sun and she had only just made it into the shadowed alley before the sky had opened up and no clouds could be seen. It was with relief that she had spotted Noah though by the look on his face and the tone in his voice she maybe should have just waited silently until it got dark. “Uhhh…well, see, yeah, I have no good excuse. I thought today was supposed to be cloudy so I had an umbrella but it blew away. Don’t be mad?” She asked, her brown eyes large almost like a puppy dog’s as she begged him silently not to be mad at her. Word Count: 481! Tag: Noah Ryan Brennan!

- - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - He shook his head, sending the tiny vampire a harsh glare. “Seriously Kat…what’s going on in that head of yours?” He asked, knowing damn well he sounded more fatherly or brotherly than friendly but he didn’t care. He worried about this kid like he would his own child (should he have any which obviously he didn’t nor would he…vampires couldn’t and didn’t have children…at least not to his knowledge) and it was often said that if vampires could have heart attacks this young girl would have given him one a long time ago with some of the crazy stunts she had pulled over the years.
Example, the fact that she was hiding inside an alley during a sunny dale because she thought it was going to be cloudy. He shook his head and took off his jacket, thankful for once that he had been so large when he had been turned and thankful that she was so tiny so the jacket quite literally fit all the way around her. “Alright, I’m going to have to carry you but at least you’ll be safe. I would take my bike but that would be a bit difficult so you’re going to have to wait until we get inside and then we can have a lovely chat about moronic things to do for vampires without daylight rings.” He stated firmly before picking up the balled up Kathy inside his jacket and heading into the community center.
Once inside (ignoring the strange look he received from two of the workers) he made his way towards the hallway which housed the bathrooms before letting Kathy down and allowing her to hand him his jacket back though the look on her face was a bit disgruntled. “Now, do we need to have a big person talk about not doing things that are quite idiotic?” He asked, purposely talking down to her as if she was a two year old, something he knew she hated but really, what did she expect? What kind of vampire was she that she willingly walked into the daylight without a freaking ring or something to protect herself.
A pretty sad one that is.
“Alright, now that we’re both here why don’t we go grab some food and then we can have a chat about what made you decide to have to get out of the house today of all days and risk your life.” He told her before leading her towards the food court of the Richmond Community Center…
Fully anticipating a very interesting conversation.

[/font][/size]atheryn 'Kathy' Anne O'Connor pouted. She was a contradiction to the highest order. She was eleven and enjoyed being eleven because she tended to get away with more than most did since she had the childish face and personality down. Unfortunately it came with a downside and that was that she was treated like a child at times that she didn’t want to be. She was over two hundred freaking years old and yet she still was spoken to as if she was really only an eleven year old girl at times and it got on her nerves. Sure she liked being babied but then again there were times that she wanted to be talked to like an adult. She was a complicated little vampire. Kathy pouted continuously as Noah carried her inside and waited until he released her before she glared up at him. Her hair was a mess and she fully intended to go to the bathroom and fix it. She may only be eleven and may find boys stupid and immature (which come on, even if she was twenty eight or some random number she would still thinks boys were stupid and immature so really nothing was different there.) His speech about big people talk made her want to kick him in the shins but she refrained, knowing she would just cause a scene and she really didn’t want to do that in front of a bunch of people she didn’t know. If they were alone or if they were around people that she knew then she would have done it no questions asked but since they were in public she refrained, though it was more than a little difficult to do so since Noah was being such a gigantic jackass. She wouldn’t call him that out loud as she rarely cursed but still her point was made. “You go get enough food to feed an army; I’m going to go fix my hair.” She told him and stomped off towards the bathroom to which she took her hair out of her pig tails and brushed them out as best as she could with her fingers so that it didn’t mess with the curls. Once the knots were out she quickly put her hair back in pigtails and walked back outside, ignoring the looks about a child walking around by herself as she was used to those. She saw Noah with a bunch of food in his hands and rolled her eyes. “You’re a pig No.” She told him, sitting down across from him. “A big old pig.” Word Count: 454! Tag: Noah Ryan Brennan!

- - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - Noah watched as the young girl walked away with an annoyed look on her face and finally dropped the disapproving father figure look and chuckled, rolling his eyes at her ridiculousness. He found teasing Kathy highly amusing most times as she was such a tiny little thing yet had such a big personality. Kathy had always pulled at his heart strings and while don’t get him wrong, he was not amused with the fact that Kathy had put herself in this position but at the same time he understood that she had been alone for a long time so being cooped up all the time had to be getting to her.
Noah found a seat and shoved his bag on it, knowing that no one was going to touch it as he tended to have a ‘death glare’ when it came to his stuff and he tended to apparently scare people according to Lexi and Kathy both. Which was really amusing to both of them since apparently he was a big teddy bear. At least that’s what he had been told, he wasn’t sure that he would agree since he doubted that being a big teddy bear was something he should be proud of but whatever floated their boats at least in his mind.
Once he found a table and got his stuff stashed away and he went up and ordered a couple drinks (Pepsi for him, fruit punch for Kathy) and pretzels, nachos, and a plate of chicken fingers. He had a love for food as did most guys but it really didn’t do much other than give him a taste in his mouth which he enjoyed. He didn’t need food, it didn’t sustain him, but it also gave him a sense of normalcy that he had craved for a long time.
Seeing the tiny girl come back to see him with a frown on her face he couldn’t help but chuckle at her. “Oh relax kid.” He told her with a wink. “You’ll get wrinkles. Oh…wait…no you won’t.” He told her before standing up and pulling out her chair like the gentleman that he was before handing her the fruit punch he had gotten her and handed her the pretzels, one of the few things that Kathy actually ate. “And hey, don’t call me a pig, I’m a growin boy.” He told her with a fake accent and a wink.
“Now…sit…eat…and listen to me kid. What is going on with you? Something’s wrong or else you wouldn’t be out here during the day.”

[/font][/size]atheryn 'Kathy' Anne O'Connor glared. She didn't usually like being reminded that she wouldn't grow older but at the same time she had gotten over it over the years. She actually liked not having to worry about what she looked like, who she impressed. She was a kid, she was cute, and she could do weird and quirky things and not get strange looks for it. Well, no, that wasn't true, she still got strange looks for it but she didn't care. After all, who did she have to impress? The people she cared to impress already loved her and that was all that mattered to her. “I may not be able to get wrinkles but you can still get fat so I’d watch how many burgers you eat buddy…your starting to look a little chunky around the middle” She told him with a pat to his well toned stomach, clearly she was lying but she knew how anal Noah was about his physique so she always liked to kid him. She knew damn well that even if he had been human he would still have a good body as he’d work out every day of the week to ensure it. Kathy sat where her surrogate big brother told her to sit and waited for him to say whatever was on his mind. She knew that he didn't really want to have an 'adult talk' with her but she also knew that he wanted to know something and when Noah wanted to know information he wouldn't stop until he got it. She took the pretzels he offered her with a smile and bit into one right as he asked her what was wrong. Noah knew her better than most people so it didn’t surprise her that he was concerned. After all, who wouldn’t be concerned about a vampire without a daylight ring making her way into daylight hours? "I miss my brother." She whispered softly, so softly that if Noah hadn't been a vampire he wouldn't have heard it. "I know that's stupid as I lived without him for so long but he's been gone for two months and he's not contacted us once! Buffy says that's normal as he probably forgot his phone charger, which we learned he had since we found it in his room, and apparently he wouldn't even begin to know how to buy another one as he wouldn't ask for help and he doesn't know what kind of phone he has." She rambled on. "But seriously, how difficult is it to use a payphone? What if he's dead? What if he's hurt but none of us know it!" She rambled until tears filled her blue eyes and she looked to the older man, eyes pleading to tell her it was alright. Word Count: 483! Tag: Noah Ryan Brennan!

- - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - He glared at the young brunette when she commented about him being chunky though he knew she was kidding. Figuring he would play it up he quickly raised his shirt (noting with a smirk that two women stopped to stare at him) and pretending to look at his stomach, just to make sure there wasn’t actually any fat there. He knew that his body type couldn’t really change since he still looked identical (except for certain things) that he did on the day he was changed. He was more than grateful that he had been changed as a young adult rather than an old man or else he might have staked himself by now.
Smirking at the look on Kathy’s face he simply lowered her shirt (much to the annoyance of the two women who had been walking by if the looks on their faces were anything to go by) and simply stared at the young vampire until she sat down.
He waited until she had sat down before handing her the pretzels he had bought her, and then he simply waited for her to collect her thoughts. Kathy was normally a very outgoing child. Okay so he really couldn’t call her a child so much though she did look like one. Kathy was more mature when she put her mind on it than most of the adults that he knew but at the same time she still had that childlike quality about it and the spunk that made everyone gravitate towards her and feel an overwhelming sense of protectiveness towards her.
Waiting until she took a bite he asked her what was wrong and was surprised when she simply let the floodgates loose, telling him about how her brother hadn’t contacted her or Buffy (the blonde that Noah had met a few weeks ago when he ran into her and Kathy while they were shopping) and she was worried. He quickly stood up and made his way around the table so he could kneel in front of her. Pulling out her chair he slid it in front of him so they were facing each other eye to eye. “Katheryn Anne. Nothing has happened to your brother. He’s probably just trying to get done with whatever he’s doing quickly so he can come back to you.” He told her compassionately. He didn’t know where he had gone but he knew that he was out doing something which meant that he would have to be careful.
“Have you talked to Buffy about how much this is bothering you? “ He asked, one hand still on the chair and the other having grasped her tiny hand in his.

[/font][/size]atheryn 'Kathy' Anne O'Connor shook her head. “You don’t know that No!” She told him, tears welling up in her bright blue eyes. Eyes that were normally so full of life and mischief, however today if someone would have handed her a mirror (and should she had been able to look in a mirror) she would have seen how old her eyes looked. She truly looked as if she was every bit her age today, at least in her eyes that is. She was more than scared, she was terrified and yet she hadn’t shared those fears with anyone. “Angel would have never left me if he wouldn’t have thought that he would come back. So why has he been gone for so long? Why hasn’t he come home? Or at least why hasn’t he called? Something’s happening and I can’t do anything to stop it! Being a kid sometimes sucks so badly that it’s not even funny! I can’t do anything, I can’t help anyone, all I can do is run and that really wouldn’t help my big brother now would it?” She asked and while she didn’t realize it was everyone else did around her as they could hear her as she was almost yelling at this point. She realized it when people started looking at them and lowered her voice. “I haven’t told Buffy as I didn’t want her to worry too. I also know that Buffy won’t tell me anything as she’s going to try and protect me as that’s what Angel most likely told her to do. Angel and Buffy are crazy protective of me and I know that I’m going to hear about it when I get home if she happens to get there before I do.” She told him with a wince. She knew it wasn’t going to be pretty, especially if Buffy decided to tell Angel if he ever came home. “What if he never comes home No? What will I do?” She asked, a tear making its way down her small cheek. “I looked for him for so long and I’ve barely gotten to spend any time with him since I’ve found him. If it’s not been one thing and it’s another and I know that that’s the way his life is but what if he’s dead? What if he’s hurt somewhere and we don’t know about it?” She asked, throwing herself into Noah’s arms and crying out her fears. She needed to let it out and Noah was the best person to let it out to.

- - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - He sighed and stood, this time though he quickly gathered the young girl in his arms and held her to his chest. Looking around he realized that they were drawing a fair bit of attention so he quickly picked her up, allowing her to wrap her legs around him as if she was a toddler instead of an eleven year old (she was fairly small for her age) and made his way towards the ice rink which currently had no one in it. Upon finding a bench for the two to sit down at he set the tiny girl down and sat next to her.
“Alright sweetheart, it’s like this. Your older brother is older than both of us. Sure you two were turned around the same time but he was still over twice your physical age before he was turned. He knows how to take care of himself. I remember you telling me a few weeks ago that he had fought alongside Buffy for how many years before he left to go find his own way? And after that he fought all types of things. He’s probably just being careful and making sure that no one followed him back here in order not to put you and everyone else here in danger.
“I would do it.” He continued. “If my sister was still alive and I had to do something like he’s doing I would take the most awkward ways and do everything in my power to protect her, even if that meant pissing her off. I know you hate it and I agree that he should have called you but you also have to think about it this way. You and him have only been in contact again for a few months so he’s most likely not used to having to answer anyone again. Weren’t him and Buffy broken up for quite awhile too? He probably isn’t even thinking about how worried you are sweetheart. And I think that when he does get home you need to tell him exactly how you fee. Tell him that it’s bothering you that he didn’t think about you and the next time he leaves that he should check in. You need to tell him how you feel on this one kiddo, guys are pretty dense sometimes.” He told her with a wink, hoping that she noticed that he emphasized when, not if.
“Now, I have a suggestion. I say we blow this popsicle stand, and go back to your house where we can get you cleaned up and I’ll talk to Buffy for a few minutes, see if there’s a way she can get in touch with him. What do you say?”

[/font][/size]atheryn 'Kathy' Anne O'Connor sniffled. It wasn’t a shock to her when Noah picked her up and she did exactly what she knew he wanted which was to wrap her arms and legs around him so he could carry her much less awkwardly. They had done this more than once when she was tired and refused to walk by herself. Noah had always acted annoyed but she knew he really did love it. He had always been a huge fan of children and she knew from more than a few conversations that one of his biggest regrets about being a vampire was that he could never have kids of his own. She felt the cold from the ice rink chill her body but she didn’t really care one way or another as Noah sat her down on the bench, sitting next to her. She wiped her eyes with her fingers until she remembered she had a Kleenex in her bag in which she pulled out, wiping her eyes and then her nose so that she wouldn’t be sniffling every two seconds like she had been for the past few moments. She always got annoyed when people sniffled and refused to blow their nose so she always tried to make sure she didn’t do that too. Kathy listened as Noah recited what she had told him over the years and nodded along with him. Everything he said was true but that didn’t mean she still didn’t worry. “But why couldn’t he call me? Or send a text message, or drop into an internet café and send a damn e-mail!” She asked, though really it was more of a whine than an actual question. She knew what Noah said made sense but that didn’t mean she had to like it. And she didn’t, like it that is, at all. She thought it was stupid and she would be having words with her brother whenever he got his tall ass home. She giggled at Noah trying to be ‘hip’ saying let’s blow this popsicle stand but nodded anyway. “Okay.” She told him, standing up and letting him lead her out. She was glad that the sun had gone down, leaving it dark outside so that she could walk out instead of having to be curled up under Noah’s jacket again. “I don’t think it’ll do much good but at least you’ll be able to ask her yourself. Besides, I’m tired.” She told him with a pout. Word Count: 478! Tag: Noah Ryan Brennan! Outfit: Click here!--- for Kathy’s outfit! Note: Two things. One, do not let her come back.

- - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - He understood where she was coming from and figured that while he could continue to go over and over the reasons that her older brother wasn’t contacting her he should just shut up and comfort her. He knew how Kathy got when she was pissed or upset, and both of them he could tell she was at the moment. Realistically she knew that Angel was doing whatever he could to make sure that she and everyone else stayed safe, however she was still a young girl and that young girl wanted her big brother home and safe. He couldn’t fault her for that.
He was glad that Kathy agreed to let him take her home and was even more relieved that it was dark out. He led the young vampire to his bike, giving her his second helmet with a quick word of safety and then the two were off, heading back towards where Kathy had been staying with Buffy. He didn’t know the name of the house or the address but he did have Kathy yelling out directions behind him so it was good enough for him. Once they arrived he pulled into the driveway, making sure that he could get out and others could get in before hopping off and helping Kathy off before letting her lead him into the house.
He looked around briefly but no one seemed to be home. Kathy ran upstairs quickly to see if Buffy was around but to no avail. “Alright kiddo, well here’s what we’ll do. I’m going to go home and grade papers. You can either come with me and wait for AJ who is coming over tomorrow or you can stay here and wait for Buffy. Up to you.” He told her and wasn’t surprised when she said that she’d go with him and wait for AJ who was taking her out of town for a week.
Noah waited patiently for her to finish packing and then forced her to write a note to Buffy letting her know where she was. Once he was sure everything was how it should be he stuffed her bags into his saddle bags and then they were off towards his own apartment. He made a mental note to have a conversation with Buffy while Kathy was gone about Angel and where the hell he was. Even though he had said he wasn’t worried, a small part of him wondered if something had happened. This was not something he was prepared to tell the young vampire though.
Not unless he absolutely had to.
