History[]
In the Main Series[]
Dead Witch Walking[]
Nick met Rachel while fighting in the illegal rat fighting ring held by the wealthy and unscrupulous of Cincinatti. He was transformed into a rat as a punishment for stealing, and for several months he fought for his life against real rats until he was thrown into a fight with Rachel, who was a mink at the time. Trent Kalamack had entered her into the rat fights to scare her into working for him and swearing to secrecy about his biolabs. The plan backfired, however, when Rachel realized that Nick was a person as well, and after the initial fight they worked out a plan to fake that they had killed each other in the ring. When the staff hands went to retreive their "corpses" from the fighting ring Rachel & Nick made their escape into the larger building, chewed their way through the floor and escaped to Ivy's waiting motorcycle, where they returned to the Vampiric Charms church and bathed in salt water to remove their respective transformed states.
While trying to help Rachel obtain some ancient texts from a library, they are attacked by Algaliarept, who has been sent by Piscary to kill Rachel. Al takes the form of Ivy Tamwood and rips into Rachel, filling her with vampire venom and draining her of a great deal of blood. Nick manages to circle Al, who then feigns sympathy for Rachel (who is dying and mumbling incoherently from blood loss on the floor) and incourages Nick to accept a favor from him, saying he will take both Nick & Rachel safely through the ley lines so she can reach help before she dies. Nick agrees, not realizing that Al will also demand payment from Rachel. The demon returns Rachel & Nick to the church, where Keasley & Matalina work to save Rachel's life.
