Natalia watched as a man... no, a vampire, she could smell it... walked into the room. She didn't often interact with individuals similar to herself, as she wanted to lead as "normal" a life as possible. Other vampires, as far as she was concerned, were generally too ruthless. They attracted too much attention, as could be seen from the commotion down the street. She wondered if this guy had anything to do with it.

She shifted a bit in her seat. She knew that the other vampire could tell what she was. She watched him, subtly shifting her focus from Ezekiel to the vampire man.

Ezekiel put up his hair, and as he was doing so, Natalia watched the expression on the face of the vampire go from one of contemplation to one of shock. Wait... Could they have been? Oh, shit... She looked at the folded coat again, and noticed the faint outline of a suspiciously-shaped object. It looked like a gun. Damn it, I've gotten myself into another situation... I hope he... Oh, shit, what if he knows? Maybe he'll take mercy on me. Maybe he'll not...

She went to give him a knowing, warning look, but he had excused himself to talk to a young woman who had entered the diner. She feigned a bright smile again, and watched them converse. She glanced at the vampire while they were engaged and tapped her fingers. She also listened intently to what they were saying.

"What did I tell you about coming down here? Havent you seen the News? Vampires are everywhere, And their having a field day with this. I just got fucking ambushed right outside of here- it's not safe."

Okay, Ezekiel was definitely a hunter. Now, to stay on his good side. She watched as he visibly cringed, after he finished speaking. He also definitely knew that she was a vampire... But it was time to play it cool. Natalia relaxed, visibly, and straightened up.

"Hey, sorry, I just thought I'd introduce myself... I'm Nat!" she piped in, with a smile at Ezekiel's friend.

My only concern is to live through this day, her thoughts screamed.
