Black and Gold: Hazel's P.O.V

   
       "Has anyone seen Leila?" I asked, I checked with Shawn earlier and he said Leila should be with Morani, checked with her, she said Leila never came, something wasn't right.
       In the elevator, something caught my eye, it was Lelia's promise ring....she would never go anywhere without it. Leila had been kidnapped, but, by who?
       As I exited the elevator, a old Chinese man entered, he pulled on his beard, he smiled at me, his smile arose suspicion in me.
       "You must be the one they call, Hazel...." The old man said, I turned to him,
       "Yes, why?" I asked,
       "Interesting...." The old man said before the elevator doors closed, What was that all about?
        I made my way to Shawn office. I entered in a huff.
       "Shawn. Leila is missing, she has been kidnapped." I said shaking, Shawn rose from his chair in shock.
       "He's back..." Shawn mumbled, I was puzzled,
       "Who?" I asked, Shawn went into a hidden closet and brought out what appeared to be a machine gun case,
       "Call Morani and Kyle tell them to meet me at the house in one hour, tell them to suit up and bring their weapons." Shawn said,
       "What's going on?!" I asked, Shawn shot a blood red look at me,
       "Just do what I tell you! I'll explain later!" He snapped
        As I made my way towards the break room, I encountered the old Chinese man again but, this time he smiled and waved at me. Odd old man...Upon entering the break room Morani and Kyle were just about to leave,
       "Shawn said to meet him at the house in an our, bring your weapons, apparently "He's back"", As soon as I said that, Morani and Kyle were gone. Who's back?!
        At the house Shawn explained everything to me, the old Chinese man I saw, he is a dhampir collector and he's tried many times before to kidnap Leila and we only have a matter of time before he figures out how she was created.
       "How do we locate where Leila is?" I asked, Shawn smiled,
       "A vampire is the best tracker you can have." He said,
        The search for Leila began.

Black and Gold: Leila's P.O.V

      
    In Winter Park, Florida four friends attend Full Sail University. These four friends are anything but normal college students. Leila Dupri is a royal vampire, Kevin "Hazel" Kawolski is a highly skilled wizard, Morani Mekenzie is a werecat and Morani's brother, Kyle is a shape shifter and major brainiac.
     They all work at Candy Apple company. Leila's half brother, Shawn owns the whole industry. Candy Apple Co. creates specially designed clothing and shoes. Leila is her brother's personal assistant. Morani is the eyes and ears of the designing department. Kyle manages the stock income for the whole company. Kevin is the underestimated intern.
     The legend of the Dupri family goes back millions of years. The Dupris were actually part of the vampire council during the 1600s. Shawn's  father was the chairman. It was law for each member to marry a human, turn them and expand to keep the council alive and going. Rumors of Leila's mother's secret affair with a human began to arise. These rumors were soon proven to be true, thus, the birth of a Dhampir, Leila. A Dhampir is  half human, half vampire. Dhampirs are rare and very hard to come by. The council demanded the death of the newborn child for the sake of the council's honor and pride. The Dupri's refused and fled to Florida forgetting how it was the sunshine state. The Dupri's were forced to adapt to such sunlight via sunscreen and live amongst the humans. On that day Shawn made a vow to always protect his little sister.

                                                                         Leila
     I heard my annoying alarm go off and that was when I knew it was 7:00.  I rolled over in a angry huff and turned that thing off. I got up and got ready for work. Ugh...being a vampire isn't what its cracked up to be. I head out the door (with my SPF suncreen) and meet up with my loving boyfriend, Hazel. His actual name is Kevin but, his friends call him "Hazel" because of his beautiful eyes. 
   On the way to work, Hazel and I come across Morani in a bush hissing  at a dog.
    "Morani!!!" I said, pulling her out of the bush, she looked up at me and said,
    "That mutt was taunting me!!!", I sighed heavily and let her go. Hazel chuckled.
    "Where's Kyle?" Hazel asked, Morani looked around,
    "Oh....I think he left already." Morani shrugged,
    "He was probably embarrassed that his sister was in a BUSH" I said, Morani raised a brow and shot me a dirty look.
    "So, when do you plan on telling Shawn about you and Hazel?, its about to be a year now." Morani asked gathering her things. Hazel let out a heavy sigh.
    "I don't know...." I said, Hazel stepped in.
    "Leila's her own person, she doesn't need to tell her brother about us." He said, 
     At work, Shawn was hard at work trying to come up with new shoe designs, being his personal assistant I had to keep track of everything he says or plans for future referance.
     "Knock, Knock, it's me." I said opening the door to my brother's office.
     "Your're late." Shawn said, that was his way of saying "Good Morning, Sis". I sighed, 
     "Is there anything you need me to do, Mr. Boss man?" I asked, Shawn looked up,
      "Funny. Very Funny. I actually need you to do a number of things..." Shawn gave me a cilpboard with a huge list of things needing to be done. I groaned. 
     "Shaaaawn" I groaned some more, Shawn looked at me, 
     "Some of the things on that list are actually meant for Morani but, she's going to need help. The other half is just some things to keep you busy. Have  fun!" Shawn smiled, I glared at him, asshole, I thought. I made my way towards the designing department on the 4th floor. 
        In the elevator, a old chinese man in a suit stood rather close to me,
      "Your not a full vampire, are you?" he asked, I was startled,
      "Excuse me?" I tried not to make it obvious that I was a anything out of the ordinary, how could he posible know?
      "You my child, are a dhampir, very rare and precious species." The man in the suit said pulling on his beard,
      "H-how can you tell? Are you some sort of seer?" I asked a little scared, The man smiled and unsettling grin,
      "No....I'm a collector" He said, before I could gasp the elevator was full with knock out gas, I began to feel uneasy and collapsed...
