"Keeping you under shades -- it's to keep you safe, Karla" -- Karla Beato.

Karla's POV.

December 2, 2013. Clifford Gunsolus's State -- 3:00 pm. 

"I have a surprise for you, Karla" Lisa tells me as she takes my hand guiding me through the halls of the Clifford's state. After she took me out of the cafeteria, she shows me around the state, we talk about a few things. Until, we were in the living room -- we took a seat for about 3 hours then she is guiding me somewhere. I am quietly following Lisa as I am staring down at the spotless wood floor. I see a few different color carpets as we walk through the dormitory's of Clifford's state. I listen to a few voices as we pass by "Good Afternoon, Lady Lisa" Lisa comes to a halt hiding Karla behind her. Karla looks up noticing two 12th Vampire Order Guards.

Karla stares at them curiously. They both were wearing grey suits with black none strip tie & black shoes. Karla could see their black shoes were polish. Lisa was staring at their movement, Karla hugs Lisa's neck, Lisa carries Karla on her back in case. Lisa stands up starring at the 12th Vampire Order Guards "Good Afternoon, Gentlemen" Lisa voice was one of confuse -- she didn't understand why they acknowledged her now. As Lisa is from the 14th Vampire Order, they don't talk to her what so ever, they are powerful than Lisa. As they are 12th Vampire Order Guards and Lisa is just my aunts maid.

Karla knows Lisa has a little fighting training, but she doesn't know much to take down a 12th Vampire Order Guards. The 12th Vampire Order Guards were at the end of the hallway. They didn't leave an open space for Lisa & Karla to walk by. That's why Lisa was nervously looking out for anything. The hall way was deadly quiet, Karla stares at the walls and doors in between Lisa & her, they look Victorian Era as everything in Clifford's State. The 12th Vampire Order Guards haven't move from their spot at the end of the hall way "If you don't mind -- we need to pass through. Could you step aside?" Lisa tries to form her words as nice as she could manage.

Lisa was keeping calm because Karla was there with her. Lisa would do anything to protect Karla Corestone. Even go against a 12th Vampire Order Guards, she didn't care as long as she could give something back to Karla. The two guards stare at each others as the move away from the path. Lisa was unsure to pass, but she speed pass them carrying Karla on her back. Lisa could see one of them giving her an smile with a wink following it. Lisa tries not to vomit after she saw the horrible sight. Karla was almost half asleep on Lisa's back. 

Lisa stops at a different room. This room was filled with Vampires wearing different outfits from different era's. Most of them were wearing Victorian Era outfits. Wide open and high windows on the right open doors going outside to the backyard. Two Big stairs cases at the front of Lisa and a few meters behind was the second one. Carpets were brown and sand red with designs of 12th Vampire Order symbol. on the left wall in the first level stand 4 wood tables with surprisingly for Lisa mirrors. Nobody was using them, but she knew why the mirrors where there. Clifford change his state on Loreine & Karla Corestone stay, so the mirrors would be there while they were there.

Lisa rolls her eyes "he is only considerate when Karla is in the picture" Lisa thinks to herself as Lisa sees old Vampires sat across the furniture spread out in the big living room. They were reading the Codex news paper. A magical news center for magical news or gossip about all the high families or their own races. Lisa stares at the front of a Codex news paper while it shows the lay out of the different news happening around the world. Lisa notices that the 14th Vampire Order was mention and she smiles proudly reading the content with vampire speed.

"Lisa, are we there yet?" Lisa finishes reading right after Karla starts speaking. Some Vampires turns their head around to finally acknowledge Lisa. Lisa finds it annoyingly that they don't have manners what so ever. The 12th Vampire Order thinks themselves to high, Lisa knows they are prideful, she hates her stay here. She will do whatever Karla's aunt ask of her, but she hates to be another day in the 12th Vampire Order. Lisa kneels down to let Karla come off of Lisa's back "Kinda, we have to walk from here on" Lisa replies softly as she knows Karla is half asleep. Karla slowly comes off of Lisa. Karla stretches her hands around as she curdle. 

Lisa stands up turning around. She stares at Karla giggling as she was so adorable. Karla's blue simple Victorian Era dress was moving as the wind came into the living room. Karla's brown long hair starts dancing with the wind as Lisa takes in Karla's vanilla cotton candy scent "Karla scent is like Vanilla and Cotton Candy had a baby and there she came. It was just like a forbidden fruit" Lisa thinks as she breath the familiar sweet scent. Lisa looks around seeing the Vampires staring towards them. Lisa takes Karla's right hand guiding her outside the living room. 

As soon as they came out Karla could smell flowers. Karla looks around as males and females Vampires walk around elegantly. Lisa is walking straight ahead holding onto Karla's right hand while smelling Karla's strong scent with the scent of flowers. Lisa was staring around making sure no 12th Vampire Order got bright ideas. Lisa has two very Sharp knifes around her waist in case she needs to use them. She has one that can scar Vampires skin to show that they tried to bite somebody taken. The order burns just like the sun making it impossible for them to move -- if use correctly. 

Karla takes in the landscapes of 12th Vampire Order. It looks almost empty; however, the simple view of it is breath taking as Karla loves simple things. Lisa stares behind her looking as Karla stares at the landscapes. Lisa knows every Vampire Order State has its own originality. There aren't two state's that look exactly the same. As is the 12th Vampire Order, they do everything within a budge. It all depends on what the Vampires within their own order do or whom do they work for. Lisa knows that people whom want protection would prefer asking a higher order than anything else. 

There were a few bushes here and there, but the more Clifford's state had was open space to run. A long landscape where Vampires sit down and have blood picnics, run around, or do something else. Lisa lets go of Karla's right hand to let her see the landscape clearly. Karla could appreciate the beauty of some Vampires couples -- even if their skin was clear and pale. Karla knows Vampires in higher Orders are more fierce & beautiful. Some Vampire Order's can be brutal in the way they do things. It took 12th Vampire Orders to notice Lisa & Karla as they were on their own little world.

Lisa was out of order as her outfit wasn't in Victorian era while Karla's scent was very captivating. Karla looks around the room trying to see if she could get a glimpse of Clifford or Jason. Karla sees as Lisa somehow has a milkshake in her hands. The milkshake she was holding was red as blood with a reddish topping. Lisa looks at Karla as Lisa sips her milkshake. Karla realizes what it is the moment the liquid make contact with Lisa's mouth. Lisa's eyes turn blood red as she finally puts some blood in her system "That's so good. I really deserve this milkshake" Karla giggles listening to Lisa's words as Lisa drinks her milkshake happily. 

Karla & Lisa start moving around the backyard of the Clifford's State. Lisa is seeing everything while Karla is searching the crowds of Vampires with her eyes. It can't really be call a crowd as there is only a few 12th Orders Vampires. There were more couples than single vampires. Karla is sitting down on a white metal chair as Lisa went off to look for something. Lisa comes back sitting down in front of Karla as Karla sees a Chocolate milkshake in front of her "Thank you, Lisa" Karla mutters as she drinks happily "No problem, Karla. I will have to take you to bed after we finish sight seeing" Lisa informs Karla as she nods. Lisa keeps sipping her milkshake as Karla & Lisa take in the simple beauty of this 12th Vampire Order State.

"I just got the notice that tomorrow you are going to school from Hana" Karla stares at Lisa as the Chocolate milkshake refreshes Karla "I do? what about Loreine?" Lisa's features change to dreadful; however, they quickly were change to happy "Loreine was call on by your father. He ask for her to come to a Sorcerer's council meeting" Karla nods as she didn't ask anything about what Loreine would think. Lisa places her empty crystal cup down as she stares at Karla "Jacob will be with you in school" Karla eyes went widely open as Lisa informs her the news.

 "Joshua won't be here until the 10th of December" Karla nods as she takes in Lisa's words, "You need to be protected as you are going into a Wolf territory. There is nobody better to keep you safe than Jacob" Lisa informs Karla as she sips on her chocolate milkshake. Lisa stares around same as Karla hoping that everything goes well for Miss Karla tomorrow..
