There's only one way to get past anxiety, in Leo's world, and that way used to be alcohol. Then he became a vampire and the sweet trickeling sensations of the beverage was no more. So what else could he possible do when he felt the wallowing smell of blood and internal juices between the walls of his so called home...?
He didn't actually remember what he did after he had entered the building. There was just this itch left in his memory, this feeling that things had been wrong and that he never wanted to return. Leo probably knew what had happened, what he had feared all the time; sarah had killed them all...all of them...even the children...the kid...
Yet another tear of blood ran down his cheek. Fuck...
Leo looked across the room. It was a bar in the neighbourhood, some time at night, probably near closing. But the guests wouldn't leave this bar. Not unless he carried them or they were taken to the morgue.
It would probably be wise of him to leave, but for the moment he failed to find a reason to why he should. He could close the bar, live here, feed of those who were still alive. He hadn't killed all of them after all, hadn't drained them either. Just poured their blood into his mouth like a drunk would pour several glasses of liquer down his throat without really caring of the taste, colour or age of what he was currently drinking. It was all the same. They were all the same, he tried to tell himself. What difference should it make that a human was dead, they're all so stupidly fragile anyways...can die any day, in numerous of ways. There's no evolution any more, if anything, he felt like vampires were the next step. Humans were merely prey.

Just after Baz had told Sarah to leave London, she had gone. She had been too hurt to think she could do anything else. But of course, as soon as she had healed up good she returned. She had been around, carefully watching them all, waiting for the right time to strike.
This night, she had been watching Leo, just getting there in time to see him as he rushed out of her old place. She could smell the blood even from where she was, and she knew what had happened in there. Unfortunately she hadn't seen who had done it, so she could not thank them, but this was just perfect. She followed Leo to the nearest bar, waiting outside, but very aware what happened inside. As the heartbeats slowly decreased, she went into the bar and walked over to Leo, not making a sound. She stood behind him, laying a hand carefully on his shoulder.
"Leo."
She just said, with the most affectionate and understanding voice, but could not hide her smirk, or the proud undertone.

Leo wiped the tear from his cheek and tried to hold back a sobbing sound. He went over to one of the semi-dead girls. She was probably under aged. Stupid girl, why do you visit a bar, don't you know you can get hurt? He thought as he held her head in his hand, the body felt weightless and without resistance in her limbs, much like a raggdoll. He opened her eyes, wondering if she could still see him. Felt the temptation to torment her and watch for a reaction in her eyes. Transfer his pain into her body, the supple helpless little creature in the hands of a monster.
Leo stroked her hair back and let the head go with a sigh, the body let out a gutural sound as it hit the floor. She was probably too drained to even have a consciousness right now. Leo wished he could be like that right now...simply be far far away, but he couldn't escape himself. He though, sitting down on one of the few barstools that were still standing correctly.
He was just about to sob again when a hand landed on his shoulder and he heard Sarah utter his name. His first reaction was very human: he threw up the blood that had accidentally slipped into his stomach earlier. The motion threw him down from the barstool and he landed on all four on the floor, with blood still dripping from his lips and hair. This was it, she had come to take her revenge...
"Kill me..." He said, simple and plain. It was over. He kept looking at the blood before him, didn't feel like looking at his creator and soon to be killer.

Sarah had not really expected Leo to throw up and backed away quickly to not get any blood splattering on her high heels. She frowned in disgust and checked she had no blood on her dress before reaching for a towel behind the bar to give to Leo.
"Don't worry Leo, I'm not going to kill you."

Leo frowned with some difficulty and tried to understand what the fuck she had just said. He looked up and saw the towel, looked at it for a while and then sat up to wipe his hands and face off. It only helped half by half since there was a lot of blood and it doesn't come off easily.
"But you killed the others..." he said with a sigh, not really knowing what else to say. Why was she even here? Could he just walk away or did she want something with him... Weird fucking bitch.

Sarah rested her hand on her hip when Leo had accepted the towel and then jerked her head a bit in the direction of Leo's place.
"You mean that? I did not kill them."
She smirked.
"You thought that I killed them. That's why you...?"
She nodded towards the blood on the floor and all over Leo.
"Oh, Leo I'm flattered."

Leo rose slowly and looked at her. His hair laid in bloody strangds dispite his attempt to dry the blood off. His gaze was blunt and his lips were slightly separated, like he had half by half dropper his jaw. After a moment of staring at her and lestening he sighed.
"Well, it doesn't matter, they're still dead." he then started walking away from her, quite slow though since his head felt heavy. He wanted to go out and find who ever was responsible, and take back his home. Perhaps the one responsible was somebody he could kill...

Sarah did not follow Leo, just followed him with her eyes. This was just the Leo she wanted to see.
"You want revenge, don't you? I know."

Leo stoped and turned his head towards her with, watching her with gloomy eyes.
"Yes..." He said, not really knowing what else to say. He didn't how to track a vampire, but perhaps bazz did...if bazz would forgive him for this bloodbath. He didn't feel like thinking about it...really.

Sarah took a step towards Leo and looked him straight into those gloomy eyes. There were more life in hers.
"I could help you with that. I know revenge."
She said it a bit carefully, like she did not really know how to approach it, but she still meant it.

His gaze hardened as she came in closer.
"I bet you do. For all I know you could lead me into some sick trap"
He watched her for a reaction and then shifted the weight on his feet, ready to walk away once again.

Sarahs smirk softened to a smile and she went even closer to Leo.
"Leo. I need no sick trap if I wanted to kill you."
Her face got serious as she continued.
"Which I do not. You are my childe."
She stroked Leo's cheeks with her open hands, not caring about the blood.

Leo flickered with his gaze as she mentioned that she could kill him without tricks. He looked at the floor for a swift moment and felt her hand hand on his cheek. When she called him her childe...it felt good some how...so comforting. But then again...
"You don't think you're a bit too late to realize that?" He said and looked at her again.

She let him go, careful not to get blood on the dress.
"We've had a complicated relationship."
She nodded a bit thoughtfully and then smirked again.
"You were a troublesome childe."

Leo nodded, he even smirked for a bit.
"I think that's an understatement"
Her backing off made him feel more secure.
"I don't even know who you are"
He said with narrowing eyes.
