This whole no hunting thing was beginning to take a toll on the little vampire. She had spent so many centuries acting upon the pure predator instinct of their species. Everything had been going just fine until she stumbled upon Sebastian. It frustrated her how her own creation seemed to deny that very nature that she was sure was in their right. Oh how he had tossed a wrench into her life but how she wanted to please him at the same time. Anna had gone so far as to find herself her own blood doll which cut down on her hunting significantly. It had, however, increased the child's boredom which could be seen as a worse scenario as her options for entertainment were limited.

Tonight was such an example. The child vampire had ended up wandering out of the South all the way to the North. The cold weather meant everyone was so bundled up keeping their head down that no one took a sideward glance to the little girl walking alone. Anna turned the corner and with it came bright lights and the sound of laughter. She wandered closer to where the gathered people were until she came to a low wall separating the street from the slick ice rink. Delight lit in her eyes as she watched the people slide by for a few moments.

Anna thought nothing of it as she went to the small hut where the blades were kept. "I want to ice skate; I need skates." She held out her hand in wait for those blades. Unfortunately, the attendant only saw a child without an adult. "Sorry kid, come back with your mom or dad. I can't let you out there on your own." With that he turned about to go back to cleaning the blades. The delight and anticipation in her eyes quickly turned to anger as they narrowed at the man's back. It was in these moments, mere seconds, where a very good and seemingly routine night could turn very very wrong for a person within Anna's presence.

Tonight would be the man's lucky night. That anger that welled inside of Anna was distracted by a familiar figure caught in the peripheral of her vision. A certain fae whom she had only met once with a very mixed outcome. It was this very fae that her childe held an infatuation with and claimed to marry. He may not have been a female but his presence alone took her Sebastian away from Sacrosanct, away from her, enough that he surely owed her.

Anna approached Dorian from behind, using her ability once close enough to seize his body in place. Why he was out and where he was going never crossed her mind. She quickly rounded him, releasing her ability from its hold on his body and with no words grabbed his hand to begin tugging him towards the rink. Only once moving in that direction does she offer the fae some form of explanation. "I want to ice skate."
