I observe and don't comment on Josie entering some kind of weapons vault in the basement of the alpha house. She selects her usual gun but I watch in horror as she empties the bullets and changes them to silver ones. "What are you doing?" I grip her arm firmly, her head whipping to mine as she holds the gun still in her hand.

"If it is a real threat..." She starts but I cut her off. No, the world could be ending but there would never be a reason to use silver bullets...not on our own kind.

"No...Does your Dad know you have these down here?" I can't help my tone be anything but horrified by what I am witnessing. Surely her parents would give her free range on these, or even let them be stored in their house. "Of course, how do you think I got them."

One by one she places each silver bullet within the gun magazine before loading it into the gun. She doesn't wince once from touching the silver bullets, no marks on her finger tips...not even a sign of holding silver. Which for our kind is one of the most lethal substances still around today that can kill us.
