Now I know that I PROMISED that I wasn't going to leave you guys hanging for a year, but I broke that promise and did leave you guys hanging for a year. But I have my reasons why. First to some that didn't know, my grandma went into the hospital, right before I finished Different Way season two, then three months later, she passed away and ever since my parents and I have been making sure that my grandpa stays okay as the days and months ago on - the second reason is that I have been catching up on some stories I put on Hiatus while writing My Babysitter's A Vampire A Different Way Season Two and You Hurt Me, [that sequel is coming up soon, promise.] So yeah, I caught up on them, completed a few and now I'm ready to BRING one of my babies back! And oh! Here's the summary for the episode! Back In Fangs! I can't believe that I almost forgot about the summary, well you guys do need to know what's going to go down in this episode. So yeah. Again here is the summary for Back In Fangs!
The Summary For "Back In Fangs": Ethan, Benny, Amanda, Erica snd the others are BACK and they're ready to continue and finish Senior year and Sophomore year! After the whole Stern thing, they're ready to just continue with their lives, but Whitechapel has different plans for them. With the disappearances of people all over Whitechapel, the arrival of a mysterious student that's taking a huge liking to Rory and Jenny's little sister Chloe, the arrival of another new student, a new teacher, a new Vice-Principal, Amanda's having to deal with her brother who's about to go through his first change, the Vampire Council breathing down Benny and Ethan's necks about their relationship, Benny's worrying over what Ethan's answer will be, and all of this is happening at the same time the Dusk V fan-screening is set to premiere the very same week, and the new guy's helping with it. Who's giving Ethan and Benny strange Jesse-ish vibes, [who's aso back in town and is now working with the Vampire Council]. Can Ethan and the others figure out what's going on in Whitechapel this time? Can Ethan figure out what the new guy is? And how'll they handle their personal lives while doing this?! Find out in the first episode/first chapter of My Babysitter's A Vampire Season Three!
Gabe: *looks around and sees we're back to the Different Way Series, and throws a happy-excited fit* HEY GUYSS! WE'RE BACKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK! With brand new monsters, villains, new characters, new drama, new supernatural stuff and lots, lots and of course LOTS MORE! -oh before I forget- If you guys are looking for some Bethan authors/stories, you should really check out these two new authors that write for Bethan [and other pairings as well]. TriedOfBeingNice and MBAV fan66. They wrote some awesome stories.
Brandon: Hi guys! It's good to be back! And I'm going to continue what Gabe just left off with. If you guys haven't already checked out, The Voices In My Head by JustMe133, A Fairytale Kind Of Love by MBAV fan66, Fairytale Flummox by JDWrites101, Benny's Secret Lover [pairing's shush-shush] by TiredOfBeingNice. And lots of other stories, that I cann't name off.
Erica: Yeah, you guys should totally check those stories, they're like really, REALLY good. And oh it's great to be back, guys!
Rory: Hey people of the world?! How much has changed if you don't mind me asking? Not much on our side of things, how about your side of things guys? Anything happen since we have been gone from the fandom here.
Jenny: Rory, we haven't BEEN gone from the fandom. We've been here, just not for this series, and oh my god. You're so confusing!
Chloe: Sibling fighting, I hate it when they do this. *puts her fingers in her ears to block out the sounds of fighting*.
Erica: Sometimes, I wonder, which one of us has the better sibling relationship.
Amanda: Probably across between Benny and Gabe, and Ethan, Brandon and Jane. My siblings and I fight all of the time, [mostly my big brother and me] and Erica's siblings are at that age where they think girls are gross, yeah.
Me: Yeahhhh, okay. So nobody pay any attention to Jenny and Rory fighting behind us, right now. So who wants to do the not owning and owning crap stuff?
Brandon: It's called a Disclaimer, Bethan.
Me: Brandon. Don't. Start. Remember, I can call it what ever I want to call it. So who wants to do it?
Amanda: I'll do it, Bethan. *clears throat and pats chest* In no way does Bethan Forever own My Babysitter's a Vampire the series or any of the canon characters, such as, Benny, Ethan, Rory, Erica, Grandma Weir/Evelyn, Jane, Ross, Samantha, Sarah, Jesse, and etc. etc. etc. etc. from there guys. But however Bethan Forever does own ALL of the plots to her own episodes, the sub-plots, the original pairings, all of us OCs, so she owns I, Luke and Josh, Gabe, Brandon, Jennifer, Chloe and all of the other OCs I can't name off of right now. She also knows the titles to the episodes as well. And oh, of course we all KNOW by now if Bethan Forever owned My Babysitter's a Vampire, Benny and Ethan would totally be together by now and there WOULD have been a season three.
IN NO WAY DO I OWN MY BABYSITTER'S A VAMPIRE OR ANY OF THE CHARACTERS FROM THE SHOW, I JUST OWN MY OCS, THE EPISODES-SLASH-PLOTS AND ALL OF THE SUB-PLOTS, THIS TAKES PLACE IN AU OF THE SERIES, JUST SO YOU KNOW.
MBAV fan66: Oh, why thank you! I know that I'm really late in replying to your review. Late's better than. Never, I will reveal who pulled Stern out of the rumble, probably in the first part of the Season Three finale, as to why the teenager pulled Stern out, that will be revealed too. Yep, but she didn't get her first vision before Atticus turned her into a fledgling, so when the vemon entered her body it blocked her powers. It's going to happen Anastasia's going to return as the headmaster of the Vampire Council and Jesse is going to become main character and will be working for the Council. We'll see how that works out. Yep the Lucifractor awoken their vampire powers early. Yeah, it looks like Benny and Ethan are going to be more powerful than they are right now! Although, I can't reveal why though. Just not yet... I didn't think anyone was going to catch that. I just threw it in there and wondered if anyone was going to get it. I hope you enjoy the new season! It's going to be fun!
TeamEthanMorgan: Yes! That's what I was going for. Soooo much Bethan stuff/fluff. I'm sorry about leaving you hanging for so long. But hey, you will get to hear Ethan's answer at the end of the chapter, so yay! I hope you enjoy the new season!
The poll for what Jane's supernatural powers should be is still open, however, the poll for what Chloe should be has been closed, her supernatural powers will be announced soon, I will be dropping hints in this chapter of what she will be..
The reason why I brought in Luke and Chloe in the last season, is because. I wanted to give you guys a look at the new characters that are going to be in this season, a lot more then they were in last season. And they are going to be apart of the group after this season. And this season's going to be a little darker than the last season. But hey, EVERY other TV series, gets darker after the second season. So I'm aiming for that. The OC face-claims can be found at the end of the chapter and on my profile! Be sure to check it out!
Alright, I should stop talking and let you guys enjoy the new season/fourth installment of the "Different Way" series, I hope you enjoy, 'cause this season is going to be a good one. (or I hope it's gonna be a good one). Soooooo *drum roll* Without farther ado... I give you all the FIRST EPISODE OF MY SEASON THREE OF MY BABYSITTER'S A VAMPIRE! Enjoy my lovelies!
We could be Immortals, Immortals. -

Chapter One - Back In Fangs
Ethan's Point Of View - One Week Later - At Ethan's House
I didn't think there was a better way to spend, the last night of the two weeks off from school, than with sundaes on a Sunday night, somehow Amanda managed to talk me into making them again, I hadn't really had a sundae since the beginning of Freshmen year, because when we had them, we didn't pay attention to Jane like we were supposed to do, she ended up sneaking out of the house and things just went down hill from there, but things went up hill, because I met Benny and the rest is kind of just history from there.
Right now, Mom and Dad were out, at the new bowling alley (that they just built) for some couple's date night thing again, and since Benny was not coming back to babysitting Jane, just yet, Erica was out with Rory and his family for some dinner thing and Brandon was at Benny and Gabe's for a little while, it was just me and Amanda watching Jane. Yeah, I know, Mom kinda surprised me since the last time I babysat, the Tornado twins and Jane ended up drawing red doors all over the walls after running out of paper to draw the doors on. She told me as long as I watched Jane and didn't let her out of the house, I could watch her whenever my boyfriend and best friend couldn't make it to babysit Jane.
So, both Amanda and I were stuffing out faces with sundaes, listening to the rain outside the windows of the house (for some reason it decided to rain for the past week) while Jane was watching TV, the Dusk III Unbitten movie, talking to her friend Kimber about the fan screening that was showing later this week. The people that made the Dusk series, decided that they should continue with the series, after Dirk was discharged from the hospital after the whole Breath of Death stuff, so yeah. And also, Sarah has been driving Benny up the wall about seeing the fifth installment in her favorite book series. Benny however was not going to see the movie because one, Dusk in some way ruined his life and second, he actually just realized how damn awful the movies were.
"So, what are you and Benny doing about the Italy Vampire Council's like warning/threat?" Amanda asked me, while sucking the spoon with some left-over sundae on it, I froze as I went back to grab more of my sundae with my spoon.
And while I tried to forget about the Italy Vampire Council, I was still thinking about what the question Benny had asked me last week, after we got back from seeing the head Vampire Council in Italy. Benny had asked me to marry him. And I was completely shocked by the sudden proposal, it took me a while to respond and when I did, I told him that I would have to think about it and I'd give him an answer soon. I know it's bugging him but he doesn't say anything about it when we are together. So I try not to bring it up.
"Nothing much, actually. We were talking about when I should turn and Benny said it's up to me to decide when so," I trailed off, putting my spoon back into my mouth.
Amanda nodded her head, before groaning out some. Amanda has been acting strangely since she regained her powers back. I just couldn't put my finger on what was wrong, and she's refusing to see Grandma Weir about it, we all know Amanda by now, and she won't see Grandma Weir about it until it gets worst or something happens to her and we all have to bring her over there and get checked out by the Earth Priestess.
My best friend's really hardheaded.
"That's good, I like the fact he's letting you choose when you should drink human blood, it's another thing that makes him, different than the other guys, at least he doesn't lie to you," Amanda mumbled the last part, hoping that I wouldn't hear it, but I guess she sometimes forgets that I'm a fledgling vampire and I have super-hearing.
"You'll find the guy for you Amanda, just don't give up any hope." I told her, and that was true. I know that she was going to have some trust issues whenever she gets into a new relationship with somebody, but soon Amanda will learn how to trust the guy she will find one day. And yes, I do realize that I changed the subject. But my friend needed to know that she will find "the one". One day.
"Thanks, Ethan." She thanked me and smiled a little at me, before returning to her sundae.
"No, I think she is going to choose Collin, no way she is going to stay with Jakeward after what happened in the end of the Musical," Jane said walking pass me and Amanda on her way to the kitchen, probably to grab something to drink while Dusk III Unbitten was on a TV commercial break. "If she chooses Jakeward over Collin, I'm completely over Dusk. It's getting too stupid," she told her friend Kimber over the phone walking back from the kitchen with a water bottle in her hand.
Amanda clapped her hands. "Yay, no more Dusk!" Jane turned around and gave her a small glare before sticking out her tongue at my best friend who did the same thing. Sometimes I think that Amanda's like ten, the way she acts.
"Yeah, I'm still listening. My brother's friend was just being weird." Jane answered, taking her seat back onto the floor and throwing her blanket back on her, I chuckled lightly and Amanda just frowned at my sister before licking her spoon clean. I finished my sundae and headed into the kitchen to put sundae wear along with the spoon into the kitchen sink. When a loud bang sounded from outside, I looked up at the celling, in confusion along with my baby sister and my friend.
"What the heck was that?" Jane asked from the living room, before another loud bang came from outside again, then there was another loud bang with a loud whooshing sound and after that it was complete silence, I walked out of the kitchen and into the dining room, where Amanda was at, still looking up at the celling.
"Whatever the hell that was. It sounds like it's gone now," I stated with my hands in my pockets, Jane looked at me before going back to watching her Dusk movie, while me and Amanda looked at each other, with looks on our faces.
Jesus, can Whitechapel just stay quiet for more then just two weeks?
- Across Town - At The Movie Theater -
Nobody's Point Of View.
A teenage girl sighed out, as she checked out another box on her clipboard, looking at everything that was being set up in the movie theater for the huge Dusk V Hairy Moon, fan screening on Thursday, she continued to check out everything that was on her list. From Dusk tee-shirts, to posters, to the awesome Dusk V Hairy Moon buckets. Man this was going to be an awesome fan screening.
She looked at her watch, it was about ten-thirty, school started tomorrow morning and she needed to get some sleep. But she needed to make sure everything was here before she went home for the night. She was after all, the second in charge of the Dusk Fan Club.
"Mandy, maybe you should go home and get some sleep, you've until Thursday morning to do all of this," Daniel/her boyfriend told her, appearing from the back. After he had disappeared to clean the back about twenty minutes ago. Mandy shook her head, while writing down something on her clipboard.
"No, I have to make sure everything's here before I can go home," Mandy replied, shaking her head again before letting out a loud yawn, Daniel rolled his eyes. He had realized a long time ago that these Duskers and his girlfriend were very hardheaded, and basically did not give up on anything when it came to Dusk.
Daniel hopped over the counter, and took the clipboard away from the Dusker girl and held it over his head. Since Mandy was about four inches shorter then he was, so he had the height on his side, Mandy shouted a "hey!" when her clipboard was yanked out of her hand, and she tried to jump up to grab it from Daniel but she failed. "You need to go home, okay? I don't want to see you getting in trouble at school tomorrow for falling asleep in class because you didn't get enough sleep because you were stressing out over the fan screening for all of the Duskers in town." Daniel admitted, giving her a knowing look. The shorter girl gave a small pout, trying to guilt him into giving back her clipboard. But her guilt pout, didn't work on Daniel who stared at her for a few minutes, before Mandy gave into him and sighed out.
"Fine, you are right. Just give me back my clipboard and I will go." Mandy held out her hand, for her boyfriend to hand her the clipboard back, he studied her face and body before handing the clipboard back which she accepted and went over to the counter where her book bag and jacket rested at.
Mandy slipped her clipboard back into her book bag before grabbing her jacket and slipping it back on her body before throwing her bag on her shoulder, she went over to Daniel and gave him a quick peck on the lips.
"See you tomorrow morning at school," she said after pulling away, she smiled at him before walking over to the theater doors and opened them.
"Love you!" Daniel called out to his girlfriend who smiled and turned around as the door closed and blew him a kiss before mouthing "I love you too," and the disappeared from his sight. He grinned and returned to do his clean up and then lock up for the night.
Mandy tugged on her book bag, as she walked, returning her hands to her pockets to keep them warm from the cold night air/wind, and it also had rained earlier that night. Right after she had arrived at the movie theater- so normally when that happens it makes it cooler and makes the ground ice over sometimes.
"God, I hate this damn weather sometimes." The Dusker grumbled to herself, listening to the side of her high heeled boots hitting the wet ground as she walked towards her car which she parked in the alley way, close to the movie theater.
She began to feel around in her jacket's pockets, looking for her car keys when suddenly she heard a small noise from behind her it sounded like. Mandy stopped and looked all around her and. She saw nothing out of the normal, just the rainy covered ground, and she just felt the coldness of the night, with a sigh she took out her keys and started to mess with her keys to her car.
Damn it, I should really take some off these key-rings and other keys I don't even use anymore, Mandy thought to herself, getting closer to her car. Suddenly the same noise from earlier sounded out again, but much louder this time.
She jumped when she heard the same sound again, before walking faster towards her car and messing around with her keys until she found the right key that unlocked her car, she stopped at her car, her keys making small noises, because her hand was shaking lightly. Just before she could get it into the lock of her car, Mandy was yanked forcefully up into the air by something rather large with wings. And all that was heard into the quiet night -after that- was a hiss and a loud scream.
About ten minutes later, Daniel walked out of the back of the movie theater, after turning off all of the lights, making sure they had enough popcorn and other movie things in the back, making sure everything was clean and all of the doors were locked before he punched out and exited out the back. He walked down the alleyway until he reached the middle, where he spotted a familiar car still parked there in the alleyway, his girlfriend's car. She should be half way back to her house by now, this confused him a bit, but then thought she was probably waiting on him, so they could go home together. With a smile on his face, Daniel walked towards his girlfriend's car and opened his mouth to say that she should have not waited on him, when he spotted his girlfriend's book bag and car keys laying on the ground by the driver's side door of her car. Daniel bent down and picked up his girlfriend's book bag and looked inside, nothing had been taken from her book bag, then he went to put it on top of the roof of his girlfriend's car, when he noticed small red wet spot on Mandy's car, he touched it with his finger and then pulled it back.
His eyes widened at his finger and his mouth dropped open, in clear shock.
It was blood.
He looked around for his girlfriend, he was hoping that it was like animal blood and not his girlfriend's blood.
"Mandy!" Daniel shouted still looking all around him as the wind began to pick up and he still continued to scream out his girlfriend's name into the quiet and cold night. Not even hearing the sound of wings off somewhere near him.
The creature stared at Daniel, before growling showing the fangs in its mouth as it held onto the body of a female, who looked like she was asleep, but her neck rolled to the side showing off two fresh bite wounds in her neck.
It looked like Whitechapel was going to be a great place to finish what he started so many years ago. And nobody, and he means that NOBODY was going to stop him from completing his old plan now.
Haha, this was going to be good.
- The Next Morning - At Benny's House -
Nobody's Point Of View
Benny turned over on his right side, as he spelt peacefully. He had been sleeping good for the past two weeks, ever since he came in contact with the Lucifractor. Which came with some sort of downsides, he kept getting weird dreams of being in the past, with Ethan, the others, his family and Jesse. It was just something he could not explain, must have had something to do with the Lucifractor, he guessed.
And right now, he was having one of those weird dreams again, but this one was slightly different then the others. The other ones were all ways either about him drinking from cows and other animals or trying to keep his boyfriend/lover from drinking from people and trying to keep him from turning into Horace Black, their leader/founder of "Black's Church".
In the dream, Benny sat on a rock near the small river/lake, enjoying the peace and quiet. This was his favorite place to come to, whenever he wanted or needed to get away from the troubles and loudness of Black's Church, he could never get any peace there.
He sighed out lightly, as he looked down at his hands. The only thoughts that went through his mind right now was all about his lover, Ethan. Who was acting more and more like Horace, every time he went out on a hunt with their leader/founder.
As much as he hated how his lover was acting at the moment. He wasn't going to screw anything up because Ethan was the only good thing, that he had. In a very long time, and after everything he has been through. He needed this one good thing in his immortal life.
The young vampire sat there for a while, just enjoying the feel of the wind blowing and the peacefulness, until he heard somebody trying to sneak up behind him, Benny let his fangs slip out and then he snapped his head to the figure and gave a loud hiss, to scare the figure away.
But, as soon as he saw who the figure was, Benny retracted his fangs and sighed out, "I told you never to do that when my back is turned, Ethan!" he exclaimed angrily, he hated it when Ethan did that. And told him time and time again to stop doing it, but Ethan continued to do it, even after he said not to.
Ethan chuckled lightly, as his lover crossed his arms and looked away. He took a spot across from Benny on the rock, he stared at his lover, who continued to stare at the lake-slash-river. Not looking at him.
"Oh, Benny don't be like that, I was just like joking with you," Ethan tried to reason, Benny turned his face to him and gave him a look that basically said it all, which Ethan sighed out to before saying. "Fine, I am sorry for trying to scare you, is that what you wanted to hear?"
Benny just sighed and looked away, this had the makings of a fight coming up, but Benny decided that it wasn't worth it and just kept his mouth shut, "I just came to see what you were doing, and it looks like you're taking a break from the loudness of Black's Church."
"Yeah, I just come out here to get away from things from awhile, the quietness helps with the nerves," Benny replied, with a small sigh at the end, looking at the sun slowly setting, creating a beautiful sky scene.
Ethan nodded in agreement, staying quiet while keeping his hand on his leg near his pocket on his pants, after a few minutes, Benny moved over to his lover and rested his back against Ethan's chest. He took Ethan's hand into his and placed it on his stomach, as he stared at the lake-slash-river and the sky.
At this moment, the slightly older vampire decided that this moment, was the right one. To ask this question, he's been waiting to ask for along time now, he slipped his right hand into his pocket of his pants and felt around for what was in his pocket and then he found it.
"Benny," Ethan began to speak, as he pulled what he had in his pocket out and kept his hand balled up into a fist, so his lover couldn't see what he had in his hand. Benny looked at his lover, and at his hand, waiting for him to continue. "I've been waiting for the right moment to ask this- and well, just seeing the sky, the lake and the other things. I have decided that this is the right moment."
And with that Ethan opened his hand to reveal a ring that rested in his palm, Benny gasped lightly, and leaned up some and looked at the ring in his lover's hand. He could not believe it, Ethan was actually -really- asking him to become his husband?
He never thought that this day would come, when Ethan would ask him to become his husband. But it looked like the day had come, and it was today.
"Ethan," Benny breathed out, looking at the ring in his lover's palm and then at his lover, with a look of pure shock on his face. Since he never thought that this day would come.
"Benny, my love. Will you do me the honor of becoming my husband?" The dark brown eyed teenager asked, giving his lover, a look of pure love. Benny covered his mouth with his hand, staring at the ring and then at Ethan, before nodding his head "yes".
"Yes, yes, yes. I will become your husband, Ethan James Morgan," the younger vampire answered, nodding his head as he answered, smiling, as Ethan grinned and took Benny's left hand and slowly slid the ring onto his wedding-ring finger, Benny took a look at the ring before being brought into a passionate kiss by his lover-slash-now fiancé.
Benny's eyes snapped open, as his alarm clock began to go off. He looked up at his clock which read, Seven A.M, he had an hour to get ready for his first day back to Whitechapel High, as a full vampire and get to school, on time. With a low groan, Benny slapped the stop button his alarm clock and threw over his covers and laid there for a bit thinking about how sort of rough today was going to be, with acting normal around the others about him and Ethan and seeing how his hunger was going to react to being around a lot of blood filled teenagers.
Today is going to be complete hell. Or at least I think it'll be, who the hell knows? Benny thought to himself, before getting up from his bed to get this day started.
- At Amanda's House -
Amanda rubbed her lips together, as she finished with her makeup. She put her lipstick back into her makeup bag, before zipping it up and putting it back into the drawer, she messed with her -sort of- loose curls, for a second before a fist banged on the bathroom door.
"Come on, Amanda! I've to use the bathroom!" Luke's -her little brother by a year- voice shouted through the locked bathroom door. Amanda rolled her eyes and looked at herself in the mirror before unlocking and opening the door.
"Sorry, I had to use the bathroom, little brother," Amanda said, as Luke pushed her out of his way and slammed the bathroom door. She frowned and then just shook her head, the teenage/werewolf hormones. They were getting to be a huge pain in the ass.
Amanda walked into her bedroom and packed up her books and slipped them into her shoulder bag, she grabbed her cell phone and slipped it into her back-pocket before turning around and she found her older brother standing there, wearing a white tee-shirt and just normal blue jeans.
"Hey, little sister." Josh greeted, crossing his arms. Amanda raised an eyebrow as she walked towards him. Something was up, Josh hadn't greeted her with a "hey little sister" since she became a hybrid. Because he really disliked vampires and he really disliked the fact that she became one and was friends with them. So, basically they became sort of like immortal enemies.
"Hey, to yourself. So what do you want?" she asked, stopping in front of him with one hand on her hip and the other one on her door, of course her brother wanted something. She could tell by the way he was acting right now.
"What makes you think that I want something? Can I just have a talk with my little sister?" he shrugged his shoulders with a smile placed on his face, Amanda gave him a stare, her lips pursed out. If this was about joining the Werewolf Council. She sure as hell wasn't joining.
"If this is about joining the Werewolf Council, the answer's still. N-O, Joshie. No," Amanda told him, making a move to past her brother and walk the door when her older brother moved in her way. The hybrid tilted her head to the side before trying to go out the door the other way, but again Josh moved. Blocking her from walking out of her room.
"Okay, just what the hell are you doing?" she asked again, taking a deep breath in. Which she caught a whiff of a different smell which did not match hers, Luke's, Josh's and their parents', she used her strength and pushed Josh out of her way.
And when she did that, she saw a girl (about eighteen) standing at Josh's bedroom door, her hair was mussed up and so were her clothes and the hybrid also noticed that her brother's scent was mixed in the girl's scent.
The girl looked at her with widened shocked eyes and mouth hanging slightly open.
Amanda just chuckled lightly, as she noticed the slightly large hickey on the girl's neck. She tapped him lightly on his chest, letting out a small chuckle. "Next time, try not to talk to me, it's kinda a dead give away," she smiled and waved at the girl before walking away from them. The girl looked at Josh, who glared at his sister's back as she disappeared down the stairs.
Amanda walked into the kitchen, as her mother, Hannah Halliwell sat out pieces of bacon on a plate. For her children to eat for breakfast. "Hey, Mom," she greeted her mother, as she opened the fridge and grabbed her cup of blood, Hannah looked over her shoulder at her daughter as she turned off the burner.
"Hey, sweetie. How're you doing today?" Hannah questioned, turning to face her daughter who took a sip from her cup of blood as she grabbed a pair of keys, from the spot where they kept all of the keys to their vehicles that rested in their driveway.
"Pretty good so far, besides the fact my older brother acting all nice-y to me so he can sneak a girl out of his room and the house. But yeah, it's been pretty good so far." The hybrid told her mother who shook her head at hearing her son was trying to sneak another girl out of the house again.
That was like the tenth time this week, that boy has done that. But the first time he has acted nice to his sister just to do that. Sometimes, she didn't even know what was going through her eldest child's head.
"And also, can you tell Dad to have a talk with him about doing that? I mean werewolves are like supposed to mate for live and at this rate. When he does find her or him, he's going to break their heart 'cause he doesn't want to give up single life," Amanda said grabbing a piece of bacon off of the plate. Hannah nodded her head, agreeing to tell her husband about it later, so he could have a talk with their son.
Amanda smiled and went to walk out of the room, but was stopped by her mother's voice who remembered something important, she almost forgot to tell her daughter. "Oh wait! Honey. I almost forgot to remind you," she said, making Amanda turn around and face her mother.
"What is it, Mom?"
"Well, you know that Luke's been acting quite moody lately, and we know why he's acting like that. I just want you to keep an eye on him at school. Because his first full moon is coming up soon and I want to make sure that you're there for him in case he starts trying to change at school or anywhere else," Hannah explained.
"Mom, I can't help Luke through his first change, I'm not a full blooded werewolf anymore," Amanda pointed out, her mother made a noise and looked at her daughter.
"I know, but your father and I talked to the Werewolf Council and it turns out you can help him, with the change because you're still half wolf. And since you have been through the change before you can still help him,"she explained, with a look. Amanda sighed and crossed her arms.
"I only went through the change like three times before I got bit by Atticus, I can't really help him Mom."
"But still you went through the change, the wolf in you will know what to do, when it is time for Luke to change. So please promise, if Josh is not around when it's time for Luke to change- you will help him through it," Hannah looked at her daughter, who looked off for a second before nodding her head, giving in.
"Okay, okay. I promise, Mom." Amanda promised. Hannah smiled at her, walking over to her and giving her a kiss on the head.
"Thank you, honey. Now get going before you're late to school."Hannah waved her off, Amanda just chuckled, rolling her eyes as she walked out of the kitchen.
Hannah watched as her only daughter walked out of the kitchen with a sort of sad smile on her face.
Why did children have to grow up so fast?
- At Whitechapel High School -
Benny's Point Of View.
I never thought that I'd say this but, it actually felt great to be back at Whitechapel High. Yeah I know, hard to believe those words are coming out of my mouth. And without Stern here, it looked like the rest of the year was going to be pretty good without a hard-ass on our asses twenty-four-seven.
But I know that something supernatural is bound to pop up sooner or later. I just know it.
So, here I am, making my way towards Ethan's locker, where my boyfriend should be getting his books out of his locker, for first period. I walked a little faster towards his locker, so far so good with the bloodlust thing. I had a bag of blood before getting in my car and driving here.
As soon as I got closer to Ethan's locker, I spotted him holding onto his backpack and moving books in and out of his backpack and locker. And I also spotted, Brandon there with him, leaning against a locker next to my boyfriend's, talking to him about something. And that "something" is most likely- Gabe, my brother.
A small smirk appeared on my face, as I decided to sneak up on Ethan and surprise him. I quietly walked towards him as his back was turned to me talking to Brandon. And I made my move.
I wrapped my arms around his waist and pulled him against my chest and put my mouth next to his ear. "Guess who?" I breathed out, earning a small light shiver from my boyfriend. Who then let out a small chuckle as I planted a small kiss on his neck.
"Is it my handsome full vampire boyfriend, kissing my neck right at this very moment?" Ethan guessed sort of jokingly. He turned his head towards me and I met him half way and gave him a lingering kiss on the lips. After a few minutes of kissing, I pulled away and gave him a peck on the lips, before resting my forehead against Ethan's forehead.
"You guessed correct, and your prize was me giving you a very long lingering kiss," I replied, making Ethan chuckle and roll his dark brown eyes at me. Damn it, I just love those eyes of his.
"Okay, dudes. Stop sucking each other's faces off in front of me, it's kind of gross-ish," Brandon spoke up, reminding us that he was still there. And I just realized that he basically just stood there and watched as we made out with each other.
"Whatever, Brandon, mine and Benny's sucking faces off is just the same as yours and Gabe's sucking faces off, because we all look alike," Ethan said, as I moved my body around so that I was now standing beside my boyfriend with my arm wrapped around him.
"No it's not the same, we all may look alike, but we're different in some ways. So basically that makes it not the same," Brandon pointed out, a happy smirk on his face as he crossed his arms. He kind of has a point.
Ethan opened his mouth to respond when Gabe appeared out of nowhere and gave Brandon a kiss on the cheek. "Hey guys, so what're you talking about this time?" he asked us, since he misses things half of the time.
"Nothing much, just random things," Ethan answered, Brandon nodded in agreement and Gabe looked over at me with a look that said "It really was not random things was it?" I returned the look that replied "It really was not, but do not ask about it."
Gabe decided that it was time to change the subject and the subject was about if I was having bloodlust problems. "Alright then, so bro. How's the whole bloodlust thing going? Having any feelings to bite someone's ass yet?"
"Nope, there aren't any feelings to bite someone's ass, yet. So I guess that's good," I said with a small shrug of my shoulders.
"Actually that's good, I mean. Everyone of us has had feelings to bite something weird when we became full vampires. But you don't, I guess it is either because you were a fledgling longer and learned how to control the urges or something else, this is like Grandma's field of work not mine."
Maybe it was because I was a fledgling longer, but I remembered that Sarah told me about "Full Vampires"'s urges are like ten times stronger than "Fledglings"'s urges. Honestly, I've no idea, I could be in control one minute and then the next I would Vamp-out on somebody. You never really know.
I'm probably going have to ask Grandma about this later, since she is the "older and wiser" one. I just nodded my head, and that was when I heard the voices that belonged to our other two friends.
"So, yeah, I basically have to watch over Luke until his first full moon arrives," Amanda explained to Erica, as they walked towards us. Erica gave a quiet reply to the hybrid that I was not able to hear.
"Hi guys! How's everything this morning?" Erica greeted, holding her books against her chest, looking at us, while Amanda shook her head at her and asked all of us "What's up?" holding up two of her fingers, giving a peace sign.
We all replied back with "It's been okay". Because so far, this morning has been very boring so far.
"Did you guys hear the news?" Amanda asked, looking at us. I shook my head "no".
"No, what's the news?" Ethan asked back, looking at his two best friends.
"Well. With Stern gone, Principal Hicks and the School board decided to hire a new Vice Principal, she starts today, and they also hired a new teacher. Who's going to be teaching about "Myths" stuff." Erica answered, a new Vice Principal? And a new teacher?
"And she forgot to mention, that the Sophomores -aka- us have a class with our new Myth teaching, teacher for the rest of the year, you know what this means? MORE HOMEWORK!" Amanda exclaimed, leave it to Amanda to worry about more homework.
"More homework? Why is that?" Rory walked up, hearing the end of what Amanda had said.
"We've gotten a new teacher and a new class long with the teacher. So Amanda's upset that there's going to be more homework now," I explained, Rory frowned wrapping his arm around Erica's waist.
"I don't blame Amanda, because sometimes, homework makes me throw up." Rory agreed, nodding his head, I rolled my eyes, nice information to share with us Rory.
"Nice, Rory, just nice." Amanda said sarcastically, making a face at the goofy blonde vampire.
RINNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!
"Well. Looks like it's time to get to class," Ethan noted, closing his locker door. The others and me nodded our heads, and then headed towards Miss Daniels' classroom. Yeah, the same Miss Daniels, who was supposed to teach us about spiders that one time. But she had come down with some type of flu, so Mr. G had to take over.
As soon as we walked into Miss Daniels' classroom, we spotted Mr. G writing down "WELCOME BACK STUDENTS" on the backboard and along with what Miss Daniels was supposed to teach all of us students today.
Me and Ethan took our seats in the front, while Amanda and Erica sat together, and Brandon and Gabe did as well. Rory however sat by himself. Mr. G finished writing on the backboard and turned around to face the class, with his hands together.
"Alright, welcome back students! I hope you all enjoyed the two week break, because now we have to get back to school business, now, Miss Daniels was supposed to be teaching today, but at the last minute she called in because she had caught a nasty stomach flu, so until she's better. I will be taking over her classes for the time being," Mr. G announced, Gabe snickered from behind me.
"I think Miss Daniels catches nasty flus just so she wouldn't have to teach us." Gabe whispered to Brandon, chuckling lightly, Mr. G had heard Gabe whispering something to Brandon and cleared his throat and looked over me and at Gabe.
"Mr. Weir, what did you just whisper to Mr. Morgan about?" Mr. G questioned him. I looked at my brother who, looked kind of startled by the fact that Mr. G had heard him whispering to Brandon about Miss Daniels, but quickly my brother was able to come up with a believable lie.
"I told him that I hope Miss Daniels gets over the nasty bug soon, so she can come back and teach us wonderful teenagers stuff," Gabe lied, and it was a perfect believable lie. Gabe and I can lie about things really good, well. Because lying about things runs in our family's blood.
"Oh, that's nice of you to say Mr. Weir, I'll tell Miss Daniels you said that," Mr. G said, turning back to the blackboard. Gabe grinned happily as he did a small fist pump. He was happy that he had gotten away with his lie.
"Now, I need you all to open your books to page forty-nine and we will start on that topic-" he began to say, but was cut off, by the classroom door being opened making everybody look over at the door as some guy walked into the classroom.
And by "some guy" -I meant- the new guy. I had no idea that we were getting a new student, but then again. Whitechapel High never lets us know about new students. He was pale, he was around five-eleven in height, he had jet-black hair that hung slightly in his eyes, his eyes were dark brown, -all most black- and he wear black clothing, a long sleeved shirt and dark black jeans.
This guy just screams Emo.
Mr. G walked away from the blackboard and over to the guy. "You must be the new student, Principal Hicks told me about, what's your name?" he asks, but the guy didn't answer, he just handed over a note to Mr. Go who began to read what the note said. And then he reclosed the note and turned to the class.
"All right, everyone. I would like you all to meet Dracua, who just transferred from Transylvana Canada," huh. Okay weird I have never heard of Transylvana Canada, I guess it was one of those small towns, that never gets noticed.
"Everyone, say hello to Dracua," He added and the whole class replied with a "Hello Dracua", Mr. G smiled and pointed to the empty seat next to Rory.
"Please take your seat next to Mr. Keaner," Mr. G said, and Dracua didn't even answer him again, before moving towards Rory's table, as he pasted us, he stared at me and Ethan. But I felt like he was staring at me more, then he was with Ethan.
I felt a shiver run down my spine, as Dracua pasted me and Ethan, he stared at Amanda and Erica who stared back at him weirdly, he stared at Gabe and Brandon before sitting down next to Rory, who greeted him nicely and told him his name.
"I don't like that guy," Ethan spoke to me in a quiet voice, right after Dracua sat down next to Rory. And I kind of had to agree with Ethan on this, if I get shivers around somebody, it normally means that person is bad news.
"Yeah, I agree with you. There's just something weird about him." I agreed, looking over my shoulder at him. Dracua felt me staring at him and lifted his head up and caught me staring. I quickly snapped my head away from him and at the front of the classroom.
Something was up about that guy. And I am pretty sure, Ethan was probably going try to figure it out. Whatever it was, I just hope it was not anything supernatural.
But since this is Whitechapel. You never know.
-Later That Day With Amanda And Erica-
Nobody's Point Of View
Amanda stood at her locker, looking at herself in the mirror she had. She had not noticed this before, but now that she looked at herself in the mirror, Amanda noticed that she was losing some color to her face. It was strange that this was happening. But she reassured herself that it must be something to do with the Lucifractor blast and it would go away soon. Thank god, she was immortal or else she'd worry and stress out about this so much that her hair would go grey. Because of the worrying she did. Amanda started to grab some of her books out of her locker, before Erica appeared in front of her locker. "Are you ready for class?" she asked.
"Yeah, I guess," Amanda answered closing her locker with the two books she needed in her hand and the others in her bag, which she placed back onto her shoulder and began to walk with her friend to their next class together.
So, what did you think of that new guy- Dracua. Did you think he was cute or-" the blonde vampire tried to ask, before Amanda let out a snort.
"Dracua? He's anything but cute, he's not my type. And even if he was my type I wouldn't date him, I'm sure that I'm done with dating for awhile."
"Done with dating? Amanda that doesn't sound like you," Erica stated, Amanda sighed lightly.
"I know it does, but at least for right now I'm done with dating. Because I rather not get my heart broken again- I know it's apart of high school, but in the way Eric lied to me, I just don't want to go through that again and I need some time for a slightly broken heart," she tells her looking down at her feet.
"Amanda, not every guy is- Eric, but I do understand the point you're coming from, even though I can't speak for myself, I read a lot of teenage crap and looked it all up on Google, so I understand, but you know when you do start dating again- you can just date a normal guy and not a supernatural one," Erica explained, letting her nerd side come out.
"Yeah, that's ON my list. Date normal guys," she chuckled, agreeing with her friend as they walked into their classroom.
Both girls took their seats next to each other, and got their things out as their other classmates flock into the classroom along with their teacher/Mr. Wyatt. "Hey, did you notice that the seat in front of you is empty?" Erica asked, right after she noticed all of their classmates were already in their seats.
The hybrid gave a simple shrug of her shoulders and opened her book, she never noticed the student that used to sit in front of her had actually transferred out of the class, or out of Whitechapel High- but then again- she had a lot on her plate the last few weeks and just didn't notice it. And she thought that this meant, the new guy -Dracua- was going to be apart of this class, since- he was the only new student in Whitechapel, at the time.
Or so Amanda (and Erica) both thought. Everyone's heads looked up as the classroom door opened and then closed, Amanda was the last one to look up and when she did- she saw that the student that was -probably- going to be taking the seat in front of her, was not that weirdo Dracua- but some other guy.
Her eyes stayed on him, as he walked towards the teacher Mr. Wyatt, this second new guy was actually kind of cute, Amanda thought, continuing to stare at the new student, taking in everything about him. His hair color, his height, his eye color, etc. And for some weird reason, she couldn't find it in her to look away from him. Okay that was really, really weird. Erica looked over at her best friend, who continued to stare at the new student. She raised an eyebrow, she had no idea why her friend was staring at the new student like that.
"Ah- yes, everyone this is Casen Nicholson, he's a transfer student from America, so make sure to be nice to him. Mr. Nicholson take the seat in front of Miss Halliwell." Mr. Wyatt said, pointing to the empty seat in front of Amanda. The second new guy -Casen- nodded his head and moved towards the seat, Erica leaned over to Amanda and waved her hand in front of her face. Finally breaking up the whole weird-ish stare thing, her friend had going on with the new guy, aka Casen. Amanda shook her head and looked at the vampiress with a confused look on her face. Erica cleared her throat and threw a look to something still confused, Amanda looked around and found that the guy she was staring at was now like in front of her. He looked at the hybrid girl, before taking his seat in front of her. The younger blonde vampire bit her lip before leaning forwards in her chair, as Mr. Wyatt began to talk about war and whatnot.
"Hi, my name is Erica, and this is my friend- Amanda," Erica whispered to Casen -aka- the second new guy, because Amanda was in some sort of staring-trance a few minutes ago and did not hear Mr. Wyatt announce Casen's name to the class.
Casen looked at Erica, who was looking at her best friend, he followed her stare and saw the hybrid girl, had her head down and was writing something down in her notebook. "Nice, to meet you both. My name's Casen, in case you didn't hear," he told both of the girls, Amanda looked up from her notebook and gave a small hearted smile towards the new guy. -aka- Casen.
"Hi," Amanda greeted back quietly, before lowering her head again and went right back to writing in her notebook. He thought that was kind of weird, but he just ended up shrugging his shoulders and thanked Erica for the kind of welcoming, she gave him- before turning around in his chair, taking out his books and he began to learn about what Mr. Wyatt was teaching them today.
And meanwhile, Erica sat there with a small grin on her face. She was going to tease Amanda about the whole weird stare thing she had with the new student later. Right now, she needed to listen to Mr. Wyatt teach, because she did want to pass the Tenth grade.
- In The Lunchroom -
Ethan's Point Of View
I chuckled, lightly as Benny planted small kisses onto my neck. I tried to push him away so I could eat my lunch, but so far it was not even working. Even though, I hadn't answered Benny's question yet, we were acting like everything was perfect. Because actually it was, I don't know what is going through Benny's brain though, but something inside of me told me that this was trying to eat away at Benny. I only needed a few more days and then I would know, my answer. And deep inside of me, I already knew what the answer would be, but I still needed time to make sure though.
"Benny, stop it I'm trying to eat." I told Benny again, pushing on him again. But this time, he gave me a pout and the puppy dog eyes. Benny always did this whenever he didn't get his way, he use the "Adorable" pout and the "guilty-slash-cute" puppy dog eyes and get his way sometimes. But since I'm so used to the "pout and eyes" trick, I didn't give into it. I just gave him a look and continued to eat my lunch.
"I need to get a new guilt trick, because my other ones aren't working on you anymore," Benny mumbled and I chuckled lightly, turning my head to look over at my boyfriend, who was taking a small bite out of his lunch.
"Good luck with that, baby," I said, swallowing the food that I had inside my mouth. Before grabbing my water bottle and downing some water.
"I can't believe you nearly bit that girl's face off!" Brandon's voice exclaimed, as he and Gabe came into view, he was holding a lunch tray while Gabe just held onto his bag and his to-go-coffee-cup, which was filled with blood. How did I know that? I could smell it a mile away.
"Well. She was lucky that I didn't, she should learn NOT to flirt with my boyfriend, I'm glad she got scared when I showed my eyes and fangs and ran off shrieking about me being a freak and everyone looks and sees that I'm perfectly normal, and now everybody thinks she's a drama-queen, makes me laugh," Gabe's voice chuckled lowly, taking a sip from his cup.
Brandon rolled his eyes and muttered something underneath his breath walking towards me and Benny. And at the same time, I spotted Amanda and Erica walking towards us. Man all of my friends/brother like to show up on cue a lot. Don't they? The girls got to the lunch table first and then Gabe and Brandon got to our lunch table second. After all of our friends and twin brothers managed to get into their seats. And began to eat their lunches while Gabe just sat there watching, them, drinking his -human blood- meal from his on the go-coffee-cup.
"So what do you guys think of that new guy- Dracua?" Brandon asked, looking around the lunch table Benny stopped eating in mid-chewing, Gabe stopped drinking his blood meal and the girls of our group looked at each other. "So silence? I take it we all had weird feelings about that guy."
"Weird, feelings about who?" Rory appeared, in a flash, with a paper bag in his hand - oh God, do not tell me that there was an animal inside that bag, if there was. I hope that the poor little creature was all ready dead and not still half-ass alive in that bag. And a small reminder to myself- Kick Rory's ass for flashing in like that when humans are around. But luckily for him, nobody in the lunch room was even paying any attention to crap going on right at this second. Rory managed to put himself in the middle of Amanda and Erica, and put his bag on the lunch table. Benny and Gabe stared at it, the bag did not move so that was a good sign, Gabe leaned over and flicked his finger at the bag and it did not make a sound.
Okay, thank god. Whatever it was in the bag was dead.
"That new guy, Dracua." Erica answered her boyfriend, picking up her apple and taking a large bite out of it.
"No, actually I thought he was pretty cool, you know if he actually did open his mouth once in a while, but other than that. He seemed like a pretty cool guy." Rory rambled, Gabe all most choked on his blood meal.
Only Rory would think that this guy seemed pretty cool.
"He didn't seem like a pretty cool guy to me, just a huge like weirdo, he kept looking at me all during through Mr. G-slash-Miss Daniels' class, it gives me shivers just thinking about how his eyes were like staring into my half-cursed soul." Amanda shivered lightly, thinking about how Dracua's dark eyes stared into her half-cursed soul.
Erica, Brandon and Gabe all nodded in agreement with what, Amanda had stated about Dracua, everything about this guy looked and sounded really weird, even the place he transferred from sounded weird. Transylvana Canada? I mean seriously.
"More then a weirdo, the guy's seriously giving me Jesse feelings, giving me shivers and whatnot. And we all know if I get the shivers it means something bad is up with the person," Benny stated, with his hand on his water bottle.
"Benny, um- just because you have shivers, doesn't mean the guy's bad. You could be getting the shivers because Dracua's just a weirdo, or because the classroom was cold. Shivers are not all ways right," Amanda pointed out.
"Benny's right, Dracua is bad news and I'm agreeing with him," I agreed, with my boyfriend. Who smiled at me gently, and grabbed my hand from underneath the lunch table. Amanda snorted and mumbled, that I always agree with Benny, just because he's my boyfriend and I kicked her in the knee to get her to shut up.
Just then, Dracua entered the cafeteria with about five other students following behind him -talk about the "what the hell?" moment of today- they were dressed in black clothing, two of them were guys and the rest were females, and they wore sunglasses, and I saw that one of the girls was Mandy Fernandez, second vice-president of the Dusker Fan club, and Amanda's ex crush's -Daniel, Della's twin brother- girlfriend. She was hanging onto Dracua's arm, smiling widely.
Dracua must have felt somebody staring at him, because his head snapped over to us. And he stared right back at us, as he and his "group" passed through the cafeteria and over to one of the much larger lunch tables in the back of the room. We continued to watch them, as they sat down at the lunch table, talking quietly about something, we turned our heads back around and faced each other, with confused looks written all over our faces.
"Does anyone find it weird, that some of the hottest students in Whitechapel High- are like hanging around with the new guy - and are dressing all most like him?" Gabe asked, taking another sip from his cup of blood.
"See? Something's up with that guy, that Benny and I are going to find out what it is." I said, Benny looked over at me, with the look of "Really? I get to be in the whole research thing? Great" on his face.
With my super-hearing, I was able to hear Mandy, say that she needed to grab something to drink and would be right back to Dracua, who responded with an "alright", in a deep voice. And then she got up from the table, Benny looked over his shoulder at Mandy who was walking towards where they kept the drinks. I watched her as she grabbed a bottle of water and walked away without even paying.
As she was walking back to her table, Daniel -her boyfriend of almost seven months- walked into the cafeteria with Della and a few of their friends beside him. It only took him a second to spot his girlfriend walking towards her table, he quickly broke away from Della and made his way towards her.
"Mandy! Hey, Mandy!" Daniel shouted, Amanda held her water bottle to her mouth, watching the scene as Daniel caught up to his girlfriend and grabbed onto her arm and pulled her around to face hm. Mandy now faced her boyfriend with her arms crossed.
They talked to each other, and they talked to each other very quietly. Because it was so quiet that me, Benny and any of the others couldn't hear their conversation. I stayed their body language, Daniel seemed like he was worried about her and Mandy seemed like she was quite angry and pissed. For some unknown reason. Daniel said something and rubbed on Mandy's arm, who jerked away from his touch. He was rather confused and then asked her something, she replied something with a growl at the end and went to storm back over to her lunch table, when Daniel grabbed her arm and said "Mandy."
Mandy moved so fast, she was sort of a blur, she grabbed onto Daniel's arm and twisted it roughly and unhuman-ly, behind his back. "Whoa!" Brandon exclaimed lightly, after Mandy did that movement, Dracua and his small group were watching their member closely, as Mandy hissed something to Daniel. And then, she pushed him hard onto the cafeteria floor, busting out in laughter as her boyfriend landed on his face and Della cried out her brother's name and rushed to his side, as he turned over and holding onto his jaw, looking up at his laughing girlfriend. "And oh, by the way. We are through- done- over, for like. Forever." Mandy told him through her laughter, before walking away from her now -ex- boyfriend and his sister, and back over to her group at the lunch table.
"Bitch," Della whispered underneath her breath, as she helped her brother stand back up with the help of one of their female friends. "You okay, Dan?" she asked him quietly, walking him towards a table with their friend following closely behind them.
"Okay, did you guys just see what happened or did I daydream all of that?" Benny questioned looking at all of us. I nodded my head along with Gabe and Brandon while Rory, Amanda and Erica mumbled a little "yeah".
"She just did that movement kinda unhuman-ly," Erica said, chewing on her apple.
"Yeah, she did." Gabe agreed, placing his cup down, looking over at the table. Where Dracua was sitting at.
We all looked over at the table, where the group was sitting at, they were happily chatting with each other about something that was going to happen in a few more days meanwhile, Dracua sat there smiling so widely, then he spotted us looking at him ad his group, and sent a small smile towards us.
"Alright, there's something weird going on here." Rory spoke up, shocking my boyfriend and Gabe, 'cause they aren't used to it like Erica, Amanda, Brandon and I were. Let's just point out that Rory does have some smart moments. He just doesn't have them a lot though.
"When Rory agrees that something weird is going on, that totally means something weird is going on," Amanda pointed out, pointing her fork at Rory who stared at the fork and than at my best friend.
"Maybe we should do like a little research on Dracua and his hometown." Brandon suggested. Gaining nods from the both girls, Rory and Gabe.
" And stay away from Dracua for the time being," I supplied, as I looked over my shoulder again and staring at Dracua who was staring right back at us.
This guy gave me and Benny, the Jesse feelings. And we were going to get to the bottom of it.
- After Lunch, with Benny, Jenny & Sarah -
Benny's Point Of View.
I ran off after lunch to grab my books for that new "Myth" class we had today. Yeah, I know. I all ready had my books, well. I got them from Principal Hicks' office earlier after the first class, we had with Mr. G -aka- was supposed to be Miss Daniels' class. But again she called in sick. So now, I was at my locker, getting the books out of my locker and into my satchel. When I spotted a few lockers away from my locker, was Dracua standing at his locker. Dracua reminded me of Jesse, for some reason. I think it was the bad-boy/rebelish/evil dark aura, or the fact they dressed the same, or the fact that they both almost looked the same. The style choices, the dark hair and the dark brown eyes, that were nearly black.
Actually, now that I think about it. It was all of damn freaking facts. I shook my head, pushing all of that out of my mind and continued on grabbing my books and other crap. Until, I heard the sounds of heels and boots walking towards my locker and then it stopped, and I looked down to see a pair of black high heels and high-heeled boots at my locker door. And I knew those shoe brands from anywhere. I lifted my head up to find Jenny and Sarah standing there, my sort of -right now- best friend had her sexy-slash-flirty eyes going on looking over towards something or somebody. And Jenny was biting on her bottom lip with her arms crossed, staring at -probably- the same something Sarah was staring at.
"Who's that guy?" Sarah asked me not even breaking her eyes away from Dracua's figure. I turned around and stared at Dracua who was talking with a girl that was a Junior or I think she was.
"He's kind of smoking hot!" Jenny breathed out, licking her lips. I raised an eyebrow and shook my head at them. Seriously? How many times were we going to go through this with these two? They both go all hot-eyes over the new guy and they are over with the crush the next day or after they sink their fangs into the dude's neck.
"His name's Dracua, he's a transfer student. And he's in my grade, but I think he's between sixteen and seventeen, who knows," I answered, closing my locker door and straightening up my satchel that rested on my shoulder.
Jenny moaned lowly, staring at Dracua. Oh my God, am I seriously hearing this right now? "Dracua, hmm- that's a sexy name, he is so on my hot-list." Sarah grinned to herself, as Jenny's lips went up into a small smile and showed her fangs just a bit.
"Okay, this is getting a little weird for me. So why are you guys here?"I said questioningly, turning to look at them. The two older vampire girls snapped out of their lusted-trances and looked at each other than at me.
"Well. Since the Vampire Council are back in town, and you're now a full fledged vampire Anastasia asked us to give you this," Jenny held out her hand and Sarah handed her a letter with the Vampire Council's symbol on it and then gave it to me.
"It's something ALL new vampires must do, since you are all new in the blood and stuff," the shorter vampire added, I sighed and opened the letter.
I scoffed as I read this letter, it was basically telling me that I had no other choice then to go to a meeting and join as one of their members. I rolled up the letter and threw it into a trash bin, I wasn't going to follow their rules. But may as well go to that damn meeting thing they're demanding I go to, just so Anastasia doesn't send out any of her vampire guards/pets, to get me and force me there to her new little building for the council.
"I can't believe, they think I'm going to join their little club. After what they almost did to me and Ethan." I crossed my arms with the "pissed off/angry' look on my face.
"Honestly, you don't have to join. Erica had that choice and she chose to join. To see if she can get any information on supernatural crap you were fighting that week," Sarah stated, Jenny nodded her head.
"Yeah, just go tell them that you don't want to join the Council." I looked at them and then at Dracua, they were too busy staring at him. Seriously what kind of sexual lust feelings did he send out to these girls?
"Seriously? This is Anastasia, we're talking about, she's a pre-teen vampire brat that doesn't care about anybody else but herself," I pointed out, but the two girls didn't answer me as they continued to stare at Dracua. Shaking my head at them I said "later you two later", before walking away from them and my locker off to the "Myth" class.
Back at the locker, Jenny and Sarah were still staring at Dracua, when the bell rang, snapping the two girls out of the staring trance, that they were in. "Crap, we better get to the gym before Coach Swan has our asses." The brown haired girl said, getting a sigh and a nod of the head from the blonde.
"But, hey you get to see your man after two weeks,"she teased, and Jenny blushed, slightly embarrassed that her friend was teasing about her small crush on the -kind of youngish- Coach Swan.
"Sarah!" she exclaimed, only getting a chuckle from the other girl as she tracked towards the gym. Jenny followed behind her, turning her head to look at Dracua as she passed. At the same time, Dracua turned his head and his and Jenny's eyes locked, in sort of slow-motion, they kept their eyes locked as Jenny passed him before she turned her head away breaking the eye locking moment.
Dracua continued to stare at the girl as she walked away. For a second his eyes appear to change color in between brown and dark red.
She would be just perfect.
- In The Mythology Classroom -
I walked into the full classroom of my fellow classmates, my friends, my brother and my boyfriend/soon-to-be-fiancé-I-am-hoping-for-him-to-be. But no new teacher, are you kidding me? The teacher is late? Should I ride their ass about being late for class when she or he gets here? Like they do with me and all of my friends?
I took my seat at my desk next to Ethan and Amanda. I put my satchel on my desk, getting ready to open it when the teacher called for us to open our books to whatever page. "Thank god we don't have this class with the new weirdo," Amanda breathed happily, Ethan nodded in agreement and I did as well. Because none of us did not want to share a class with that weirdo Dracua.
"But we're sharing this class with someone else." Erica leaned in and joined the 'talk' we were having, Erica was sitting behind us, so she had to lean in and whisper what she had to say to us. Okay, now I am slightly confused as to what she was saying.
Ethan looked at his other best friend who looked over her shoulder at someone in the back of the classroom. I followed my boyfriend's glance over to where his second girl best friend was staring at and I saw this guy writing down something in his notebook. The guy was nothing out of the normal. He just looked like a normal old high school student.
"Why're we staring at him?" Gabe and Ethan questioned, the blonde girl who grinned widely. None of us ever liked when Erica grins like that, because it means she is up to no good. Or something like that.
"It's just because I stared at him for like five seconds and she has this like idea in her head that she's like going to set me up with him," Amanda answered for the blonde, looking back at her with this look on her face. I totally get where Amanda was coming from- after the whole Jesse thing I was ready to cut off dating completely too. -at least for a little while- Until mine and Ethan's eyes connected and the rest of that is history. I know that she's going to have trust issues because of Eric lying to her like he did. And right now, she wasn't ready for another relationship. But Erica just wanted her to be happy. I guess.
"It was more than five seconds, more like three or four minutes of staring," she corrected. Four minutes of staring? Well something was up with that. Only Rochelle, Jakeward and Collin stared at each other for that long. I speak the truth on that, because I actually ended up counting the minutes they stared at each other in the movies.
"You stared at him for four minutes?" Ethan looked at his other girl best friend, who's eyes widened and she moved her head around weirdly, before groaning out loud.
"Yes! I guess that I did. Okay?! Now shut up and stick your nose into your book." Amanda growled lowly, pointing at Ethan's book.
"Damn, Ethan. You should haven't awoken the beast within her," Brandon muttered keeping his head down looking at the book he had out on his desk.
I bit my lip to keep from laughing, at the scene right now.
Rory was babbling about something, Amanda was trying to keep from going all beastly on Erica, Erica was busy thinking about being a matchmaker, Brandon -I had no idea- Ethan was looking at me, with a dreamy look on his face and Gabe was staring at his all looked over at the classroom door when a woman in her early thirties, wearing a brown jacket, a dark blue shirt underneath it, business pants that were grey, she had a small carrier case with her, she had long brown hair and brown eyes.
She didn't even look at the class, as she closed the door behind her and walked over to the teacher's desk, she put her case onto the desk and then turned her back to the class, as she started to write on the blackboard. "I'm Miss Henderson and I'll be your Mythology teacher for the rest of this year," she announced as she underlined her name. Miss Henderson on the board and then she turned around to face us.
"And of course, I know what you're all thinking about why do we need to learn about Mythology? Well, I asked the same question myself. Since everyone in Whitechapel is in the supernatural kick- your school decided that you all needed to learn about Mythology. And this is where I come in, to teach you all about it," Miss Henderson said, clearing her throat. So, if you all would turn to page two-hundred. We'll get started on today's lesson," she added. I opened my satchel and took out the rather large Mythology book and put it on my desk, flipping to the page two hundred.
My eyebrows went down in confusion as I stared down at the page. Dracula? The first EVER like vampire in history. Dracula?
"Miss Henderson? I am kind of confused, Dracula's apart of history, and isn't a myth, so why's he being taught in Mythology class instead of History class where it belongs," Ethan spoke up, Miss Henderson crossed her arms with a smile on her face.
"Well. Yes, Mr. Morgan isn't it? I know Dracula's apart of history. But- there are some Myths surrounding Dracula, but we are studying the huge myth- the myth of Dracula being the first ever vampire in history." Miss Henderson answered. I should have known that'd come up. When somebody says something about Dracula, the first thing that comes to mind is; He was the first vampire in history or all of those Dracula movies, that kind of sucked but not the one with Harry Potter's godfather as Dracula, that one was pretty good. And for some weird ass reason, some people actually liked the one where Dracula went to New Orleans, I don't why though.
"But history states that Dracula was just a serial murderer- and not the history's first vampire," Erica pointed out, being all smarty pants.
"Yes, history does state that Dracula was just a serial killer, but whoever stated that in the history books- was clearly covering up something huge, so vampires could somehow live in the darkness- and actually a few Mythology seekers have discovered that the man in the history books was like a made-up cover-story, to cover up the real story, that does not begin in Fourteen-Fifty six like the history books and Wikipedia states. The real story begins in 1285 B.C, where a young Prince by the name of Dracu, has just came into power of his family's Kingdom after his mother and father died of a mysterious illness, he was around sixteen at the time of his parents' death. Dracu was slightly overwhelmed with the power and all of the riches that came with the title- but he got used to it rather quickly." Miss Henderson began. And this is one of those moments in TV series, where the person starts to talk and it goes to flashbacks, and the same person does the voiceover.
"Pharaoh Dracu loved everything that came with his title- the women, the commands, the armies, everything. But the one thing he lusted-slash-loved more then anything was the power and gold that came along with it, soon it basically took over his life. He commanded that his solders steal from the other Pharaoh's Kingdoms and murder anyone that got in their way. It worked, Pharaoh Dracu was getting everything he ever wanted. But still he lusted for much more."
"Dracu knew that he wouldn't be able to rule forever. Because he'd eventually have to pass over the throne to his heir and would die one day, but Dracu didn't want that, he wanted to rule forever. He wanted to be immortal. He searched for ways for him to become immortal, but could find none. But the Pharaoh Dracu turned to one of the most powerful gods. Anubis, protector of the dead. Dracu knew that Anubis would give him what he wanted. So that same night, Dracu prayed to Anubis to make him immortal and even more powerful and he'd be forever grateful to him." Making a deal with Anubis is stupid to do. Because he would twist it around on you.
"After Dracu went to sleep that night, Anubis answered Dracu, and accepted his deal, but Anubis twisted the deal around and sent a bat to seal the deal, that night. The bat flew into Dracu's room and bit him on the neck since it was the only place that was revealed to the bat, before disappearing off into the night. The next morning Dracu awoken with a thirst for not water, but for blood, he noticed that he was paler and his eyes were a dark red. He knew something was wrong, and that was when his female servant entered the room, she saw his eyes and went to scream for help, but Dracu sped over to her in some type of speed and sank his teeth into her neck, drinking her blood, after he was finished he saw his image in the mirror disappear completely, his eyes change back to his normal color and he saw he had what would later be called "fangs"." See told you that Anubis twists crap around on you.
"After sometime as an immortal creature, Dracu learned that he needed blood from the living to live, and he had powers that others didn't have, super-strength, super-speed, super-senses, the power to fly, his only weaknesses were daylight, holy water and garlic. And Dracu realized that he had the power to change others into what would be called Blood-Drinkers, than later be called "Vampires", after his female servant came back to life, as a creature like him but she did not drink blood and died two weeks later. So Dracu knew that whoever he turned needed to drink blood right after the changing- and with more people like him on his side, he knew that nobody could stop him. He changed his whole army into Blood-Drinkers-slash-Vampires, with them like their ruler, they were unstoppable." She sat on her desk and crossed her legs.
"That was until, some of the other Pharaohs of the other Kingdoms, found out that Dracu was the one behind the stealing's of their gold and other riches. They were angry and mad with what the younger Pharaoh was doing to their Kingdoms and ordered the murder of Pharaoh Dracu and his people. The Pharaohs's armies marched into Dracu's Kingdom and began to follow out their orders- Dracu was shocked by the sudden attack but didn't show it as he ordered his immortal army to protect the Kingdom, the other army, was confused as to why Dracu's army's wounds were healing so quickly and they continued to get back up after hits that were suppose to kill them, the two armies continued the battle with Dracu watching, smug at the fact his men were close to killing the army, but than- one of the men accidentally stabbed one of Dracu's men in the chest into the heart and was shocked at the man as he went down into nothing but ashes. They had found the weakness and began to do the same to the rest of Dracu's army. At the end of the night, Dracu had escaped into the night, watching as his family's Kingdom burned. There he told himself that he would get revenge, he changed his name to "Dracula" and began to change more people to become vampires just like him throughout his years as an immortal creature of the night." Wow, this is pretty good and I could actually see this happening.
"In the year Eighteen-Forty-Five, Dracula began to build an army, to take over the world. But some vampires didn't want that, these vampires just wanted to rule over other vampires. So, they came together to put end an to Dracula, they busted into Dracula's hideout and they fought Dracula's army, they easily destroyed them because they weren't as trained as these vampires were. They captured Dracula and put him on trial for what he had done, they found him guilty and sentenced him to spend all time locked up away from humanity alone and in the dark, Dracula was madder then the Mad Hatter, and told them that he would break out and finish what he started as they took him away." She finished.
Damn that was quite a freaking backstory. "What happened to Dracula after that- Miss Henderson?" I raised my head and asked her.
"Well, some Mythology finders say he's still in imprisonment, but some others have found clues that suggests that Dracula broke out of imprisonment and is trying to complete when he started all most two hundred years ago." She answered. I nodded my head and put my hand down and leaned back in my chair, as Miss Henderson opened her case, and took out some papers. "And you all are going to be learning about Dracula this week, and I strongly suggest that you all turn to books and not, Wikipedia." Cue the groans from everyone in the classroom.
Okay, so maybe this class was not going to be boringish after all.
- Meanwhile In The Girls' Locker Room -
Nobody's Point Of View.
Jenny grabbed the towel that was hanging on the towel hanger, as she turned off the shower. She let out a tired-ish sigh, wrapping the towel around her body, before walking out of the shower area of the girls' locker room. She passed some girls that were on their way out of the room, talking. She rolled her eyes as she made her way to her locker, where she found her friend at her locker, slipping her shirt back on. "I can't believe, Coach Swan made you run five more laps today." The brown haired girl chuckled, flipping her hair. Jenny scoffed, rolling her eyes as she took her hair out of the pony-tail she had it in.
"Well, I guess he wanted to see me all sweaty-hot looking." The blonde shrugged opening her locker, the shorter vampire giggled and made another teasing comment about Coach Swan.
"Shh. Don't make teasing comments like that in this locker room, you never know when Cassie and her crew are listening in on you," she said, making Sarah gave her a look that basically said "Really? Jen? Really?"
"Cassie and her crew aren't, they already left the locker room about ten minutes ago."
"Just no more teasing about my small crush on Coach Swan, okay?" Jenny asked her to do, and Sarah just rolled her eyes playfully responding with an "okay, Jenny". Jenny got out her clothes, shoes and her bag, out of her locker as her friend closed her locker and smiled at her lightly, throwing her back onto her shoulder.
"See you later, Jenny." Sarah called out, walking towards the exit of the locker room. Jenny called out a "same to you too, Sare", before the girl walked out of the locker room. She brought out her hair brush and began to brush her hair, not paying any attention to what was going on behind her.
The door to the girls' locker room, opened very quietly and a figure stepped into the locker room, closing the door just as quietly. The figure walks towards the role of lockers and stopped there for second, lingering in the background, but the face couldn't be seen. But the figure's shape could be seen. The figure watched Jenny as she began to hum lightly and moved her body slightly, until her leg accidentally knocked off one of her shoes on the bench, she groaned and put her hair brush on the bench and then bent down to pick up her shoe. As she did this, the figure quickly moved to the next line of lockers, making a small whooshing sound in the empty girls locker room.
Jenny's head jerked back to behind her -after hearing the small whooshing sound-, but she found nothing behind her. She just thought it was one of the girls from gym class, that had forgotten something in their locker and rushed out of there, making the small whooshing sound. She sighed, putting her shoe back onto the bench and slipping her brush back into her bag, before reaching out to grab her normal bra, when she heard the sounds of someone's shoes- or boots stepping into small spots of water on the floor of the girls' locker room. "Hello?!" She shouted into the seemingly empty girls locker room, she realized that, she basically did broke one of the rules in a horror movie "Never call out into a seemingly-empty place" rule. Jenny knew this rule because, she used to be a huge horror movie geek, until she became a vampire. There was a moment of silence before a rather loud scratching noise, sounded through out the locker room, making Jenny yelp and cover her ears, because of her super-hearing. After a few seconds the scratching sound stopped. She uncovered her ears and with a look on her face, she let her fangs slip out of their hiding place over her normal teeth, she counted to three before jumping out of her hiding spot, hissing showing off her fangs and yellow vampire eyes. Her fangs changed back into her normal teeth, and her eyes slowly returned to their normal color. When she saw that nobody was there, the teenager rolled her eyes and rubbed her forehead, honestly, she thought she might be hearing things.
Thump! Slam!
"What the hell?" she whispered, after jerking at the loud sounds. What in the hell was going on in this locker room today? She quickly made her way back to her locker, where the older Keaner sibling found her clothes, shoes and bag were on the locker room floor and her locker door slammed shut with a rather large fist dent in it, she frowned at the dent before getting down onto her hands and knees to pick up her things that were now some freaking how on the damn floor. A heavily breathing figure suddenly appeared behind Jennifer as she set her bag back onto the gym bench, she straighten her back up some and was about to get off of the ground. When a hand slapped over her mouth with a white cloth in the hand as well, Jennifer gripped at the hand that was covering her mouth, trying to pull it away with her vampire strength, but for some reason the person holding the white cloth against her mouth was ten times stronger than her, she muffed screamed into the person's hand, making the person grip onto her hair and pull her head up to look into their eyes.
The last thing, Jenny saw. Was a pair of dark red eyes.
And then it was nothing but darkness.
- A Little Whiles Later - With Chloe. -
Chloe Keaner pushed up her glasses, that were falling down to her nose as she walked towards her locker, holding onto her books and backpack, while wearing an over slightly sized pink rain coat-slash-jacket that her mother made her wear for today, since it had been raining for the past week and she didn't want her daughter to supposedly to catch a "cold". Sometimes, she kind of hated the clothing that her mother picks out for her. And sometimes, she wonders why her mother dresses her in sweaters and turtle-necks, or just long clothing period. It's probably because you are the baby of the family and she doesn't want you to end up like Jennifer, she thought to herself, sighing out, as she held onto her books tighter. Chloe continued to walk towards her locker, minding her own business, until. Some girl -aka- one of the Cheerleaders on the team walked right by youngest Keaner, and smacked her arm right down onto her books, which sent the books in her had flying onto the floor.
"Watch your step, there geek." She hissed at the girl, who mumbled out an "I'm sorry," and bent down up her school books. The Cheerleader scoffed and flipped her hair as she placed her foot onto one of Chloe's school books, looking down at the younger girl who stared up at her. The older girl just smirked, removing her foot from on top of Chloe's book. "And also, that jacket makes you look pregnant fat," she added, giggling to herself as she walked away, making sure her butt move side to side as she walked away. Chloe looked at the Cheerleader walking away and then at her book. With a heavy sigh, she picked up the book and stared at the front cover of her math book, how in the world was she going to explain the "Seven and a half" shoeprint on the front cover her book. She continued to grab her books and place them on top of each other, she reached out to grab one of the books that fell onto the ground farther away from the other books, when someone walked up to the book and picked it up. The person looked at the book before handing it to Chloe.
"Thanks," Chloe thanked the person, placing the last book on top of the others and stood up from the ground. The person picked up the books and handed them to the girl with glasses.
"It's no problem there, sweetie." He told her, waving his hand with a smile on his face, showing off his perfect straight and white teeth, Chloe felt her cheeks flush at hearing what he called her, but then she shook her head and began to walk away from the stranger. She didn't think, that the guy was going to follow her. "What is your name and why was that girl acting like a major bitch to you?" He asked, following behind her.
"My name's Chloe, and she is a cheerleader- the "major bitch" thing comes with the title. And because I am lower then her and a geek, so she can get away with bullying," she answered.
"Well, nice to meet you Chloe- I'm Dracua and girls that act like that back in my old hometown normally got their necks bitten off," Dracua said, Chloe stopped and raised an eyebrow at the choice of words the guy-slash-Dracua used.
"Bit? What do you mean by that?" Chloe looked at him questioningly, only Jennifer and her friend Sarah used words like that. Whenever they talked about people that used to tease and bully them when they were younger.
"Oh, I meant they got their butts bitten off by their parents." Dracua corrected himself. Chloe nodded her head slowly.
"Right," she said, before continuing to walk away and with Dracua still following behind her. Why was he so stuck on her, the completely nerdy girl with no friends and the not-so-perfect eye sight and hair? When he could go after other girls, like that cheerleader, or Sarah, Erica or even her own flesh and blood sister.
"So where are you off to? The mall? Because if you are, I would love to take you out," Dracua spoke, what, really? Did he really just say that or was she imagining it? And seriously? IS that all this guy thinks girls do? Go to the mall and get their hair and nails done? Although it would be nice to do that once in a while. But still.
"No, with that comment, you'll never get to take me out, because that's not what all of us girls do all of the time, I'm off to my house to study." Chloe snapped, walking faster leaving Dracua behind her standing there with a smirk on his face now.
Dracua stood there for a bit, until one of his members walked up and trailed her hand down his arm, getting her master's attention. She stared at him, smiling lightly. "What makes her so different than the rest of us? She's basically in the same shoes as the rest of us were," she pointed out, twisting and curling Dracua's hair with her fingers lightly. He stared at her, thinking to himself.
"She's in the same shoes, but something about her is different and I'm going to find out what it is after I offer her the deal," he told her, before walking away from her. The girl crossed her arms and stared at her master as he walked away. What could Dracua sense about Chloe, then her and the others couldn't sense? Well, whatever it was they were sure going to find out soon when Chloe took the deal, Dracua was going to offer her.
- Later After School With Amanda. -
Amanda was fumbling around with her bag as she searched for the car keys, she had dropped into her bag earlier and now it was lost inside her bag full of books and other random things. "Damn it, keys where in the hell are you?" Amanda cursed quietly, continuing to push the books and other things around in her bag, until she heard her keys moving and finally pulled them out of the bag and smiled happily.
"Hey, sis." Luke greeted, appearing next to his sister, smiling all happily and widely.
"Hey, yourself. So how was school for you?"
"Great, except that I'm having these cravings- is it normal to um crave a real breathing horse."
"I guess it is, I wouldn't really know," Amanda shrugged, she really wouldn't, since she had no weird cravings, mood swings -okay maybe she had mood swings but it's supposed to happen at her age- or any of the signs of the change, because it kind of happened so suddenly. Her eyes changed at Jesse's party, she growled and whatnot- then went home went to sleep and woke up butt naked with leaves in her hair and dirt on her feet.
"Oh, right- we all thought since you weren't showing any signs of the change, we figured that you wouldn't change so- I should shut up," Luke closed his mouth after seeing the look his sister was giving him. The Halliwell siblings turned down the next corner, when suddenly Amanda held out her arm, stopping her brother from going any farther. Luke looked at his sister in confusion, wondering why in the world she was stopping him, from going anywhere, but then he followed her eyes to what she was staring at, and that was when he noticed two men standing at the end of the hall dressed in black jackets, jeans and maroon tee-shirts.
They looked like body-guards, they were not from the Werewolf Council, so they had to be from the Vampire Council. "They look like they're waiting for someone, and I think that someone is either me or Benny- and I'll find out, just take the keys just in case," Amanda told her brother, handing over the car keys to him. And began to walk towards the two men.
"But, but,- but, Amanda! I don't have a learner's permit!" Luke whispered-slash-shouted to his sister, Amanda crossed her arms and took a quick look at her brother, before looking away and back at the two men. The two guards stared at the hybrid, as she stopped in front of them staring at them and they stared back at her.
"Look, if you're from- the Vampy Council or the Were-y Council. I'm not joining so you can shoo," she waved her hand. One of the guards raised an eyebrow at her.
"Are you Amanda Halliwell?" the one on the right asked, she gave them a look.
"Yeah, so what's it to you?" Amanda said questioningly. The two looked at each other, before nodding their heads together, they took both of Amanda's arms and began to lead her out of the school, with Amanda struggling to get out of their grip. "Hey! What are you doing? Let go of me," the hybrid tried to pull away from the grip of the two men. But to no use, for some reason the two men were slightly stronger than her. Amanda asked the two men where they were taking her and they just replied with a "To the Council". And no name of the street or building, they were taking her to.
Well, where ever the hell they were going. As soon as Amanda got there, she was going to have a little chat with the whatever-Council it was about forcefully pulling people out of school against their will.
- At The New Vampire Council Building, With Benny And Gabe. -
Benny's Point Of View.
As it would turn out, I wasn't the only one that had gotten a letter from the Vampire Council. Gabe had gotten one as well. Because I was now a full vampire and Gabe because he was never really a official member. And after all of the shit they are putting me and Ethan through, I was about ready to tell them that they could take these letters and shove them straight up their asses. I parked my car across the street from the entrance-slash-gate of the new Vampire Council Building, it was named "The Old Bennett Mansion", built in Eighteen-Ninety-nine, it was owned by the rich Bennett family, before they moved out of Whitechapel in Nineteen-Twelve. And now it was just a old building, apart of Whitechapel's history, perfect for the Council, since nobody even peaks around the mansion anymore.
Both Gabe and I exited my car, and then flashed across the street to the gate of the Vampire Council. Yeah, I know we could've walked, but vampire speeding gets us there quicker. I stared at the gate for a minute, before somebody flashed up to the gate and the person hissed at the both of us, trying to scare us which didn't work. And it was a male guard -I have never seen this guy before-, he had his fangs out and his eyes were bright yellow. His eyes bore into my eyes and Gabe's. Either he was new or was heavily on guard because of the whole Stern and Lucifractor thing that happened two weeks ago. "What's your business here, half-pints?" The guard asked through his fangs with his hand on the gate.
"We're here to see Anastasia," Gabe answered, holding up his letter and I held up my letter, showing the guard why we were here. The guard stared for a few more seconds before opening the gate and stepping to the side, so he could let us in, I rolled up my letter and walked inside first, Gabe followed behind me, we walked towards the building, listening to the guard closing the gate behind us before he flashed off in vampire speed.
"I think that Mason Lodge was bigger than this place," I looked at the Mansion, walking up the steps. Both buildings were around the same age, but it seemed to me that the Mason Lodge was bigger, but I could be wrong about this place though. Gabe shrugged his shoulders and opened the door to the building and let me inside first, I tucked my hands into my pockets and while my brother closed the door behind him. We began to walk down the long hallways, okay. So the inside was bigger then the inside of Mason Lodge, it did not look like that on the outside though. There was a lot of members walking in and out of some of the rooms holding books and whatnot, it was quite clear that they were still moving stuff around and getting everything set into place.
None of them even paid attention to us, since they were busy with unpacking all of the books, for the Council's library and gah, the other important crap for the Council. Eventually Gabe and I found the Council chambers doors, and how could we tell this? Well, because it had two guards both female, standing at the doors, with their backs straighten, their chins-slash-heads up in the air and their hands together in front of them, two large "V"s on the doors and there was voices talking loud enough for us to hear that it was Anastasia's, Grant's and somebody else's voice that I knew very well. But couldn't place who it was since they were talking lower then Grant and Anastasia were. It sounded like they were talking about disappearances all over Canada, something about a breakout. And something else about, it sounds-slash-seems to be happening or starting again. What was starting or happening again? And disappearances? With Jesse like flying around out there now, he could be behind it.
Since he did it once before, he could totally do it again, you know?
I was so caught up on listening to what was going on inside, Gabe had grown tired of waiting on me and had all ready pushed open the doors to the Council chambers, I jerked lightly, as I watched my brother walk into the chambers, I rushed in behind him, taking in how the chamber looked. The chamber looked the same as the old one, but this one was slightly bigger. It was still dimly lit in there, with some torches lit in there as well. Grant, Anastasia and the third person stopped talking, as soon as Gabe and me entered the chambers.
My eyes settled on the figures in the middle of the chambers, at the desk. Grant, Anastasia and the third person was. Oh you have got to be kidding me! "What in the hell are you doing, here?" I snarled, pointing my finger at the third person, who was in fact, Jesse Black, my ex-evil vampire boyfriend. Who was standing in the Vampire Council and not in some place in the world like I hope he'd be.
Jesse gave a chuckle and opened his mouth to give a smartass reply, before Anastasia slapped him in the stomach hard and held her chin up. "He's working, because he's now an official member." Anastasia answered calmly, did I just hear this crap right? Jesse is an official member of the Vampire Council?! Mr. Jesse Black, who likes to work alone, is now working with the people that banished him?
"What? You're joking right? After everything he has done? Trying to raise his followers, showing the people of this town that vampires are real, but they believed that it was stupid messed up 3D glasses, but then he again almost exposed our secret for the second time which you banished him for!" Gabe exlclaimed raising his vice some.
"No, we aren't joking, after he helped you two and your friends dealing with the Lucifractor and Stern, we decided because he helped the Vampire Council, that he should be given a second chance and that is all he's going to get, if he betrays the Council, in anyway, we will see to his punishment," Anastasia explained, holding out her hands.
"Jesse shouldn't have been given a second chance, after everything he has done?! You are that willing to give him a second chance?! God, you all must be so damn stupid." I sighed out, rubbing my face.
"Benny, maybe you should calm down a bit," Jesse told me, I scoffed, rolling my eyes. He really thinks that I'm going to forgive and like forget and believe he's the good guy now. He's so wrong about that, because I know the real Jesse Black.
"I'm not listening to a word that comes out of your mouth, okay? You helped me and my friends just once, all right? We aren't going to be best buds and forget the fact that you are the one who screwed up my life and all of my friends' lives, so just-" I trailed off, I couldn't find the words to say right now, 'cause I'm so pissed off I didn't want to say the wrong thing.
Gabe looked at me and then at the Council. "You all just gave us another reason not to join the Council, a big huge reason, so you can take these letters, the membership and shove them both up where the sun doesn't shine," he threw his letter onto the ground, I let my letter fall out of my hand and onto the floor of the chambers as well. Gabe began to walk towards the doors and I followed right behind him, we were about to exit, when someone finally broke their silence.
"It doesn't work like that, you basically have to go through a meeting before you can make up your mind on if you should join us or not," Grant broke his silence, making me and Gabe turn around and face Anastasia and Grant and you-know-who once more.
"Well, it looks like we found another way of rejecting your stupid little offers without having to go through the damn meeting crap," I smarted off, before storming out of the Council chambers down the hallway towards the front doors, with Gabe following right behind me.
Meanwhile, back in the Council chambers, Grant, Anastasia and Jesse stared at the door to the chambers, after Benny and Gabe stormed out of the chambers and the doors. Jesse chuckled lightly, getting looks from two of the older Council members. He rubbed his nose with his hand and then crossed his arms, still chuckling to himself. "Benny took it better than I thought he would, I was thinking that he would attack and try to kill me, for once I was wrong." Jesse admitted, cracking a smile. Anastasia rolled her eyes while Grant sighed out.
"Just stop talking, please. Jesse," Anastasia told the vampire, before she turned to Grant.
"What're we going to do about these disappearances? They match the disappearances from three hundred years ago," the pre-teen vampire reminded Grant, of the disappearances that happened over three hundred years ago. That led to the battle and the imprisonment of He-Shall-Not-Be-Named.
"Anastasia, I have already said, that these disappearances could just be the same as the ones from three hundred years ago, it happens all of the time no need to worry about it." Grant pointed out, placing a hand on her shoulder.
"I do need to worry about this, Grant, I have a feeling that I just can't shake it, so I'm sending two of my best guards to check up on how things are doing at the prison," Anastasia stated, pushing Grant's hand off her shoulder, before walking out of the chambers to grab her two best guards.
"She's right, you know?" Jesse agreed, Grant looked over at him, giving Jesse a small glare, who threw up his arms with a wide smile and then walked out of the room to began his job as one of the trainers for the newbie vampires. Grant stared at the ground, breathing out heavily. Sometimes he wondered why in the world did Darren put Anastasia as the Headmaster of the Whitechapel Vampire Council.
- Meanwhile With Amanda -
Nobody's Point Of View.
Amanda glared at the two guards leading her down the darken hallway, of the Whitechapel Vampire Council, -or- so Amanda thought it was them that sent out these guards to personally bring her here and put her through some type of long ass meeting, before forcing her to join their Council. After what seemed like hours, they finally reached the end of the hallway where two larges doors sat, with some weird looking wood work on them. And what looked like an weird looking "H" on both of the doors. Amanda tilted her head to the side in confusion, last time she remembered, the Vampire Council did not have "H"'s on their chambers' doors. But maybe this was something that just came with the old building and they just had not changed the doors yet. The two guards opened the doors and then pushed Amanda inside the completely darkroom, then closed the doors behind her.
Hey! Hey, wait a minute!" Amanda shouted, jerking back around and tried to open the doors, but the door-handles did not move, Amanda continued to try to open the doors but to no use. She growled, hitting her fist and then kicking the door angrily. "Assholes, throw me into a dark ass room, where I can't even see my own hand in front of my face," she grumbled to herself, turning away from the doors and started to move her hands around to feel for anything as she walked straight forwards in the chambers or room. She moved her hands around feeling for something to grab onto, or something. But didn't find what she was looking for, she muttered to herself, before reaching the middle of the chambers. That was when torches all around the room suddenly lit up with fire, bringing light into the chambers, Amanda blinked her eyes to get used to the light in the chambers now, her eyes looked around the room taking in the detail, it actually looked like nothing the Vampire Council would have, the coloring of the walls and flooring was not their choice of style. And then Amanda's eyes settled on the huge "H" in a weird looking circle, that was hanging above a desk, okay this was totally not the Vampire Council, like she thought it was.
"Ah, Miss Halliwell, we're very pleased to finally meet you at last." A male's voice said suddenly, then Amanda looked down at the desk and she noticed that there was people sitting at the desk. Actually why did she not notice that in the first place? There was a male with dirty blonde-ish hair, in the middle (he had to be the leader), then there was a female next to him, she had long dark brown hair -all most- black and blue eyes -or Amanda thought the girl had them- and on the other side next to the guy was another girl but this one had long blonde hair and blue eyes as well.
"Um, not to be rude or anything who the hell are you guys and why am I here?" Amanda asked crossing her arms looking at the three people, the male chuckled and smiled.
"Well, the girl to my left is Nadia. The girl to my right is Aurora and I am Klaus." The man/Klaus answered the question.
"And you're here at the Hybrid Council, where all of us hybrids have a home at," the girl/Nadia added, Amanda looked at them in confusion. The Hybrid Council? So that was what the "H" hanging above them and on the large doors to the chambers stood for.
"The Hybrid Council? Okay, I didn't think that there was a lot out there like me." Amanda admitted looking down at her feet.
"Actually there's not a lot like you, Amanda. Vampire-Werewolf hybrids are rare, there's only two in this whole town, you and Klaus over here, but he's a born vampire and a bitten werewolf, I had to add that in." Aurora said, leaning forward in her seat.
"Miss Halliwell, this Council is for just for us hybrids. All hybrid types are welcomed and supported here," Klaus told the girl, who made a face and went to open her mouth to ask a question.
"Yes, Aurora and I are hybrids as well, I'm a Earth Priestess and Witch hybrid, I'm over four hundred years old my powers made me immortal. Aurora is a Vampire/Werecat hybrid, she's also immortal and around hundred years old," Nadia answered the question before Amanda could even ask it.
"Nadia is also a mind reader, it comes with the Witch side." The blonde hybrid smiled sweetly at the teenager.
"And what about your guards, and oh. By the way, you should really tell them to stop being so rough with the 'guests', jerking them around all over the place and giving them bruises with their strength, is something you probably do not want," she pointed out rubbing on her arms.
"All of our guards are were-hybrids, Werewolf/Werecat hybrid, Werewolf/Werecoyote. Werecat/Werecoyote, you can name it, and of course we'll tell our guards that," Klaus folded his hands together.
"I just remembered, you fully didn't ask my question which was "Why am I here"? And I really mean it, why am I here?" Amanda questioned again, after remembering what she said not even a few minutes ago.
"The truth is, we want you to join our Council, because we see how the Werewolf and Vampire Councils treat hybrids. And we don't want that for you or any other hybrid, so we asked our guards to bring you here and we could offer you a spot on our Council." Aurora explained, gaining a nod from Nadia. Amanda's mouth dropped open slightly, they actually wanted her to join their Council? And they would actually be okay if she rejected the offer, (unlike the Vampire Council who would threaten to drain the blood of her family if she didn't join) or unlike [the Werewolf Council, who would basically kill you -if they wanted to- if you didn't join the Council or would use other forcible things on you, if you rejected the offer].
"If you don't wish to join, we do understand why. Miss Halliwell."
Biting on her bottom lip, Amanda thought over the offer. She really could not give them an answer right now, because she was torn in between rejecting the offer and accepting it, she was going to need some time before she could give them the right answer. "I think that, I'm going to need sometime to think over your offer," she answered truthfully, Klaus, Nadia and Aurora nodded their heads in agreement.
"Alright, take all of the time you need, and you can leave now," Klaus waved his hand and the two large doors opened up behind Amanda, who turned and looked behind her at the now open doors. Nice power, she thought to herself, turning around and headed back towards the large open doors, when Amanda was half way out of the room. Her stomach ached and than began to cramp, she groaned putting her hand on her stomach, this was like fourth time her stomach has done this and drinking a pint of blood all ways seemed to help it.
Well, she was going to drink a pint, when she got home. With that thought, she walked out of the chambers and down the hallway.
- Short Time Later, At Ethan's House. -
Benny's Point Of View.
I was laying across Ethan's bed, looking up at the ceiling bored-ly, while Ethan; my geeky-adorable boyfriend was too busy typing-slash-searching Dracua's hometown on his computer, and basically was not finding anything, I noticed that Ethan was not searching on Google search, but he was searching on Bing? Nobody even uses that search box anymore, at least I do not use it. I had to bite my bottom lip to keep from giggling, because a superhero used Bing- in a movie, and I am not saying which one it was either. "Okay, Bing is not working for me, so I'll just have to use Google search," Ethan sighed, as he clicked off of Bing and clicked on Google search. I watched as he typed in "Transylvana Canada" and hit the enter button.
A long list of answers to Ethan's questions came up on the screen, a second later, and they all said that there was no such town called "Transylvana" in Canada and somehow it listed "Transylvania" along with those answers, okay that was weird, but Google does have an answer for everything and I do mean everything. Ethan decided to type up "Cities in Canada" into the search box and then again hit enter. He clicked on one of the sites and looked through all of the listings of the cities in Canada and there was no such thing as a small town-city named "Transylvana".
"So, Dracua lied about where he transferred from, why did he do that?" I asked, leaning on my elbow.
Ethan shrugged his shoulders. "I honestly don't know about that, B," he answered. I sat there and let my thoughts wander, trying to think of something, if Transylvania came up with the Google result of "Transylvana Canada", does that mean...? Dracua had transferred from Transylvania and just made up the town? And if that was true, then why did he do that? None of this was making any sense, none of it was. And there was this feeling in my gut that the answers were right in front of us and we just weren't seeing it right now.
A short knock came upon Ethan's door, causing my boyfriend to quickly close out his computer and turn around in his desk chair just as Ross walked in the room. "Hey son, and Benny, I'm not interrupting anything?" Ross said questioningly looking in between me and Ethan, Ethan shook his head at the same time I did.
"No. Benny and I were just talking about some stuff," Ethan told his Dad. Ross nodded his head with a small grin on his face.
"Great, because I have something to ask you, Benny. Are you able to babysit on Wednesday? 'Cause Sam and I are going out to dinner with Amanda's parents, and we want you and Erica both to babysit but if you aren't able to babysit, we totally understand," Ross explained. I smiled and nodded my head. I really wanted to be back at my babysitting job.
"Yeah, sure I'd love to babysit on Wednesday," I grinned, sitting up on Ethan's bed. Ross smiled happily at my answer.
"That's good, I'll go tell Samantha and Ethan, can you call Erica and tell her?" he asked moving to the open door.
"I will. Dad," Ethan nodded his head. Ross smiled and walked out of Ethan's room, closing the door behind him. I smiled to myself, as Ethan turned off his computer and came over to me and sat on the bed (after I moved over, giving him some room to sit down). "I swear. This Dracua thing is going to kill me," Ethan breathed rubbing his face. I wrapped my arm around his waist and kissed the side of his head.
"Don't let it, okay?" I stared down at him, Ethan didn't say anything instead he just leaned up and gave me a quick kiss on the lips before pulling away.
"Something's on your mind, I can tell Benny-bear." My boyfriend used my nickname he had for me. Ethan had the right to know that Jesse was now working for the Vampire Council, after all he and Brandon were the ones to bring him out of banishment so he could help us with destroying-slash-fighting Stern.
"Well earlier today, after lunch remember I went to my locker to grab the books? Jenny and Sarah found me and they gave me a letter that same letter, they gave to Erica when she came back a few months ago- it also turns out that Jeremy gave Gabe one as well. So we went there together to reject their offers or whatever they like to call them- when we got there we saw something we never thought we'd see, Jesse's working with the Council now, they figured since we were all able to trust him then they'd be able to, so Anastasia gave him a second chance! It pissed Gabe and I off, we told them that Jesse shouldn't have been given a second chance after all he has done and whatnot then we threw down the letters, telling them that we were rejecting them and then we both stormed out," I explained.
"I just can't believe Anastasia let Jesse join the Council that easily, she must be losing her mind." Ethan said. I smiled softly at what he said then and I kissed him on the lips again.
"I love you, E," I whispered. I wanted to get my mind off of this whole damn Jesse thing and just focus on my boyfriend and our relationship.
"And I love you too, Benny," Ethan whispered back, cupping my face with his hands and bringing me down into a deep passionate kiss. I moved back onto the bed some more, and Ethan took that as his chance and gently pushed me down until my back met my boyfriend's bed. Ethan leaned over me (our lips were still locked together, though) my hand went right to his hair and I curled my fingers into his soft brown hair, tugging on it slightly, gaining a small groan from Ethan, his right hand moved from my face to my waist. Where he began to slowly push up my shirt I shivered lightly as his hand stopped pushing my shirt up until it was up to my chest and he started to run his fingers up and down my chest. I let my hands travel to the front of Ethan's pants, I fumbled around with his belt, before undoing it and taking it off of my boyfriend, then I began to unzip his pants.
I'm going to leave it at that, alright? Let's just say, that I'm going to have a lot of fun tonight.
- Across Town, At The Movie-Theater With Jeremy And Sarah. -
Nobody's Point Of View.
Jeremy sat at the counter as he watched his changer/friend run around the movie theater with a clipboard in her hand and a headset on, pointing out- no yelling out the things that needed to be done to the other Duskers that were helping with the fan-screening of Dusk V Hairy Moon, Sarah was having to do it, since Mandy decided to not show up, which pissed the girl off to no end and she grumbled to herself about biting off Mandy's head if she showed her face around her. So, where he was now, basically bored out of his mind watching everyone get their popcorn, candy, sodas and whatnot and head to the theater to watch their movie.
"I DON'T CARE IF YOU HAVE A SMALL PAPER CUT, ALLIE, YOU ARE GONNA CONTINUE TO PUT UP THE POSTERS!" she screamed into her headset, Jeremy put his finger in his ear to check his hearing to make sure it wasn't messed up from hearing the scream of his friend.
"Hey, Sare, next time if you wanna break my eardrum. Scream louder!" Jeremy exclaimed, getting Sarah to lookover at him and give him a glare, before turning back to her work. They were actually trying to get a bite to eat, when Flo called up in a panic (and freaking out) about Mandy not showing up, so the both of them were slightly cranky because they were both hungry.
"Don't scream at me, Sarah, I'm doing the best that I can!" Theresa's voice yelled through the headset and the vampire just barked out another command. And Jenny was no where to be found, she simply just disappeared from school. Only her things were found in the locker room, everybody was just thinking that she walked out of school, ditching the rest of her classes. But who in their right mind, would ditch school without their clothes? That was the part that didn't make any sense. "Seriously? None of you have your act together here, and by this rate, we won't even be ready for the fan-screening!" Sarah shouted, throwing her arms up into the air. Jeremy rolled her eyes, then why have a fan-screening on a Wednesday? It doesn't give you enough time to set up a whole fan-screening.
He rolled his eyes again and looked at the doors to the theater entrance, where people were passing by in numbers holding random shopping bags. And after a few more passed, and that's when Jeremy's eyes widen at what he saw. His cousin, Jenny was standing there with her hand on her hip, but she looked different, black clothing, long black finger nails, what looked like black highlights underneath her hair and a belly button ring? She stood there for a moment, before Jeremy closed his eyes then opened them. "What the hell?" he asked himself, staring at the now empty spot. Wasn't she just there? Or was the hunger for blood making his eyes play tricks on him?
"Jerem, Jeremy! Are you even listening to me?!" Sarah snapped her fingers in front of his face, making him shake his head and look at her. "I was talking to you and you weren't answering me, what the frick where you staring at?" she stared at him, with her arms crossed.
"I though- I thought that I just saw Jenny, standing across the street," Jeremy answered pointing to where Jenny was standing, the brown haired vampire looked at where he was pointing and just scoffed.
"I think the bloodlust is getting to your brain there, Jeremy. I guess that I can take a small break from this crazy crap stuff so we can grab a bite," she took off her headset and put it onto the counter. The female vampire pulled her friend up and over towards the door, saying "Come on," Jeremy let his friend drag him out of the theater and onto the streets of Whitechapel, to search for their blood-meal. Both of them normally had the same taste in blood, because well, Sarah did create him after all. So they always drank from the same person.
"What about her?" Jeremy pointed to a girl as she walked past them, the brown haired vampire shook her head.
"No, her blood isn't any good, did you smell her breath? She ate something that was really greasy, I don't want zits on this face," she complained, patting her zit-clear face.
"Jesus, stop being so picky, please. I just want to eat," he groaned, she was so picky with blood it wasn't even funny, Erica had warned him about that, but he just waved it off. Damn it, he really should've listened to his cousin's girlfriend. Sarah went to reply, when her eyes landed on a female figure that was at the end of the street. Her eyes stared at the figure, before she realized who it was, and then began to walk fast towards the female before she walked slowly out of sight.
"Sare, where are you going?! Sare!" Jeremy shouted, running after her, the said girl headed down the street and to the next sidewalk, where she saw her friend looking back at her before waking into the dark alleyway. And seeing that nobody was on this street, she decided to use her vampire-speed to get across the street quickly. Jeremy reached the end of the street and stopped there just in time to see his friend enter the dark alley, what in the hell was she chasing after? Did she Jenny? Or something else?
She called out Jenny's name quietly, walking slowly down the dark alley, why would Jen come down this dark alley? She hated places like this. She jerked when she heard some trash cans fall down and she turned to where they had fallen and hissed, showing her fangs and yellow eyes, only to see that it was just a black cat, it meowed and purred softly, looking up at the vampire. "Get out of here," she shooed at the cat who gave another meow before running past her, she rolled her eyes. "I must be seeing things," Sarah said, with her back turned towards the dark alley. As she said this, something reached out from the shadows of the dark alley, and grabbed the brown haired vampire who let out a loudish scream, before another figure covered her mouth and made her look into the red eyes of the other mysterious figure she felt slightly fizzy and her mind cloud over before passing out into the figure's arms.
"Take him, I'll take of her," the figure hissed to his follower, before flying up into the air with the brown haired vampire in his arms.
"Sare!?" Jeremy's voice yelled out as he ran down the dark alley, looking for the vampiress. The follower held back in the shadows as Jeremy came closer to where he was hiding. He continued to call out his friend's name looking around the alley, not seeing his friend anywhere in the alley. He looked at the ground, checking for ashes, because by that scream he hoped that his friend didn't run into like a hunter or something and had gotten herself staked. Luckily for him, he didn't find any ashes on the ground, so that was a good sign. But he still didn't find any signs of his friend or a struggle.
"What the-" Jeremy's question got cut off, when he felt a sudden and hard blow to the back of his head, sending him onto the wet ground. The blow to the back of his head actually knocked Jeremy unconscious, because the person hit him with so much force. He let out a small groan, and the figure smiled, showing off their fangs as they picked up Jeremy's unconscious body, making sure they had a good grip on his body. Before they took off flying through the sky holding onto Jeremy's body. Just one more step and their master's plan would finally be completed.
- Sometime Later -
Loud rock music sounded through out an abandon building, as someone walked towards the door where the music was coming from. She slipped off her jacket as she opened the door and marched right in, she tossed down the jacket, passing a few followers who were laughing at some joke. The girl simply rolled her eyes and continue to walk towards what she had her eyes set on.
A large throne sat at in the middle towards the back of the room. Where there was some darkness in the room, and there sat a figure in the throne chair, wearing a cloak with a hood hanging down in his face, to hide what he looks like.
The girl walked passed a few male followers playing pool with a female follower, who seemed to be winning the game, she then came to a stop in front of the throne and then kneeled down on her knees before the figure, bowing her head to him.
"My child, please stand, you have any news?" The figure asked as the girl stood up and nodded her head.
"Yes, I did master. Anastasia has sent out her two best guards to check up on something's at the Council prison and you know what I mean by that," she answered and the figure chuckled, nodding his head.
"I do, my young Quinn, but Anastasia's going to be too late when she finds out that I'm out of that prison and completing my plans while she sits in her comfortable council chair and sends her little guards to do all of the damn work, makes me sick sometimes," He growled at the end, tightening his hand up into a fist, showing off his long un-humanly nails and slightly grey-ish skin.
"Master, when will we complete the final step in your plan? Soon, I hope before the guards get back, so your plans won't be ruined by the Council again." Quinn said.
"Tomorrow night, Quinn, tomorrow night, I will finally completed my army and I will take over this town and then soon after, the world," Master told her, straightening out his hand and looking at his nails and skin.
"Then nobody stands in the way of your plans, Master," Quinn grinned happily, but the smile disappeared from her face as Master let out what sounded like a growl.
"Actually, the only ones that could stand in my way is a small a group of supernatural teenagers. But since they've no idea what my powers are, nor do they know who I am, it'll be too late before they find out what I am," Master explained a smile appearing on his face even though the vampire in front of him couldn't see it. Since the young vampire couldn't come up with a reply for her master's statement, so instead she nodded her head and asked if he needed anything. "I'm find right now, Quinn go check up on our new followers, I'm pretty sure two of them are very hungry," he stated gaining a nod from the girl who then bowed before exiting the room.
The master sat there, with his hand now under his chin, looking off as he was thinking about how Wednesday night would go down, and he knew it'd go down perfectly.
Or so, he thought it'd.
- The Next Day, At Whitechapel High. -
Ethan's Point Of View.
Right now, I was walking down the hallway, talking with Brandon about my thoughts on what Dracua was hiding or what he could be. And I knew that I wasn't going to find out anymore on the Internet about Dracua 'cause let's face it. Everything about that guy was like a huge lie, so I knew what I had to do now. And I really didn't have to tell Brandon about what 'else' happened last night, because a: you could smell Benny's scent on me and b: everybody knows basically when Benny and I have sex. 'Cause it's always written on our faces and whatnot. So yeah.
"You're basically saying that you're wanting the both of us to "accidently" bump into Dracua and see if we get a vision from him?" Brandon asked pointing his finger around. Yeah, that's what I knew what to do next, if we got a vision from him that meant Dracua was something supernatural and if we didn't get a vision from him. It just meant, he was just a huge ass liar.
"Yep, since I couldn't get much information on him. I thought seeing if we get a vision from him was the next best thing we could do," I confirmed with a nod of my head.
"Yeah, our visions are like history/the future on TV and in the books but instead it's playing through our minds and eyes." Brandon pointed out straightening his backpack that was resting on his shoulder.
"Basically, we just need to make sure that, we get some good information. But the way our visions work- we're most likely to get the most crappiest info," I told my brother truthfully. Brandon nodded in agreement, with our visions never could be controlled, they just show us whatever they want to show us, and with our powers growing there's no telling what the hell, our Seer side will do, show us a vision or throw us into the vision or into Dracua's mind or all three.
"Hey, E, Bran, what're you two talking about?" Erica questioned appearing next to us with Rory right beside her.
"Is it about space monkeys?" Rory said throwing his arm around Erica's shoulders.
"Rory, this is serious business and no it's not about space monkeys," Brandon rolled his eyes slightly annoyed.
"Never is about space monkeys." Rory mumbled, pouting his lips, Erica cooed at him before pinching his cheek.
"Don't worry, R-money, one day it'll be about space monkeys," she said to her boyfriend reassuringly, before turning her attention to us.
"We're talking about Dracua, last night I Google searched his hometown, turns out there is no such thing as "Transylvana Canada" but what did come up was "Transylvania". Which kind of confused me, why'd Dracua lie about where he came from unless he had something to hide. So later, when Brandon and I see Dracua, we're gonna bump into him and see if we get a vision," I explained to the two vampires.
"If Dracua comes from Transylvania, than maybe he lied about where he came from. Probably 'cause he didn't want people to think he was a vampire!" Rory suggested, for once, Rory could be right about that. Since he was pale like a vampire, had the Jesse vibes, wore black and his name oddly similar to a huge big bad vampire's name. And, hell for all we could know, he was a vampire! We wouldn't know until Brandon and I got a vision from him. We turned down the next hall and came towards the Principal's office where, a woman dressed in a blue business suit stood, talking to some of the students dressed in (you know) jock jackets. She had short blonde hair, and looked to be in her mid -or- late thirties. I wondered why she was here. Wait a second, Amanda and Erica mentioned that we had a new Vice Principal and she was starting yesterday, so maybe this was our new Vice Principal. We walked up just as the jocks left, and the woman turned to us with a grin on her face.
"Oh, hello there, I'm Ms. Fitzgerald, your new Vice Principal and who are you four?" she greeted kindly, turning her body towards us.
"I'm Ethan Morgan, this is my brother Brandon," I pointed to Brandon who gave Vice Principal Fitzgerald a small wave.
"And these are our friends, Erica Jones and Rory Keaner," Brandon pointed to Rory and Erica, who both smiled and greeted with a small "Hi".
"It's nice to meet you all, and I'm very sure we'll get to know each other in these next few months." She said and we just nodded our heads. Because it's kind of weird talking to the Vice Principal of the school and we didn't know her.
"Before I forget, (she turns and grabs a box from behind the door) I believe these belong to you and your friends," we looked at the items in the box and sure enough. All of the things in the box were our stuff that Stern had taken from us.
"Why are you giving us back our stuff? I thought you were supposed to keep it until the end of the school year." Erica wondered, as Brandon took the box from Ms. Fitzgerald.
"Well, that was the old Vice Principal's rule, not my rule and I don't see the need to keep these stuff in the office. It's just toys and whatnot," she simply shrugged.
"Yeah, whatnot." I trailed off, smiling lightly.
"Um- we gotta go to class, it was nice meeting you Ms. Fitzgerald," Brandon told her grabbing onto my arm and pulling me away from her. Erica and Rory said "bye" before following behind us, leaving Vice Principal Fitzgerald standing there at the entrance of the Principal's office. "This is going to be a doozy," Vice Principal Fitzgerald said before heading back into her office.
"Brandon, why did you do that?" I asked my twin as soon as we were away from the Principal's office.
"I wanted to get away from that awkwardness and something just didn't seem right about her," Brandon answered. I raised my eyebrows in confusion as to what he meant by that.
"What just didn't seem right about her?" I stared at him, as he tried to come up with the right words to use.
"I don't know, there was just some uneasy feeling coming from her and I just didn't like it." he stated honestly.
"Heh, Brandon. You're starting to sound kinda like your brother's boyfriend." Erica said, I gave her a small glare, which made her mumble out a quiet "I'm sorry", even though it was so quiet, I still heard it. God bless vampire-super-hearing.
"Brandon, don't sweat about it, it's probably just 'cause we don't know her yet. And from the looks of it, she's nothing like Stern." I pointed out.
"Yeah, I agree with you E-dog," Rory agreed, Brandon just looked at me and then Rory. He sighed out, before saying "I guess you're right" and then decided to change the subject to something else. And the something else was about our parents' date night with Amanda's parents on Wednesday and Benny's epic return to his babysitting job. We were on that subject until we reached Amanda's locker, where she was standing going through her locker.
"Hey, Aman," Erica greeted and than frowned when our friend didn't give a reply, she just grabbed her Math book and closed the door. She turned around to face us and that's when I saw how pale my friend looked.
"You doing okay? You don't look so hot," Brandon told her, after taking in how pale she looked.
"I'm fine, and I'm just tired that's all," Amanda said snappy before letting out a low groan.
"Are you sure? You sound like you're turning into a zombie again," I pointed out as we began to walk again.
"You weren't bitten by a zombie!? Right Amanda?!" Rory exclaimed, reaching over to grab her arm when she slapped it and glared at him.
"Jesus, Rory! No I wasn't bitten by a zombie, and stop yelling, you're making yourself look stupid. And once again I'm fine!" she hissed glaring at us, for a minute there I thought, I heard Amanda's voice deepen some.
"Geez, what crawled up your backside this morning?" Erica asked her, just getting another glare from Amanda before she started walking ahead of us.
"Alright, what's up with Amanda?" Benny's voice questioned. As he and Gabe both appeared from out of nowhere.
"We've no idea, she's been acting funny lately," Brandon told my boyfriend.
"I might've an idea, she's been complaining about her stomach giving her trouble after since she regained her powers, and I kinda noticed that she hasn't been eating a lot of food as much as she used to lately," I said, Amanda had only told me about her "problems" and not any of our friends.
"Ethan, have you tried to get her to go see Grandma?" Gabe threw his arm on Brandon's shoulder.
"Yes, I've tried, but she keeps saying "it's just 'cause I haven't gotten used to my powers being back". But I don't believe her, something's going on inside her body and we all know Amanda, she won't do something until she has to or we've to drag her there," I answered with a sigh at the end. I remember one time, Amanda had came down with a killer cold and she gave everybody hell about going to the doctor until her parents used Erica and I in their plan to get her to see the doctor, Amanda thought we were going out for ice cream and well, let's just say it ended with Amanda throwing like a whole bunch of cursing words at us and her parents. And I almost forgot, she was fourteen when she did that. Yes, really. She was fourteen. And we're gonna go back on the topic now.
"Huh, it sounds like she's hungry and I mean blood-hungry, but she should be drinking blood, unless," Benny trailed off, looking rather thoughtful. "Unless what?" We all stared at Benny, waiting for what he had to say.
"Unless, her body is either rejecting or burning through the blood as soon as she drinks it. If her body's burning through it, she's having to drink more and more until her body just needs it all of the time. But I don't know how it's possible which is why we've to get her to my grandma to make sure," he explained.
Easier said than done, Benny. Just right after he said that, a loud crash came from the next hall. We looked at each other in confusion before rushing to the next hall. And there we found the cause of the loud crash, it turned out to be Amanda, who was on the floor with her things around her, her book and bag laying on the floor as well. There was nobody around her, which I thanked God for, 'cause we didn't need people to see what was going on.
Amanda put her hands on her stomach, groaning slightly loud. She looked and sounded like she was in a lot of pain. But from what?" Amanda!? You alright?" Erica called out running up to her, she bent down onto the floor and placed her hands on Amanda's shoulders while, Rory and Gabe got onto their knees next to Amanda.
"Air, ugh, I don't feel so good," Amanda managed to get out. Before blood slowly made it's way from Amanda's nose down to her lip. My eyes widened as Amanda's eyes rolled back into her head and she went limp into Erica's arms. The blonde girl exclaimed Amanda's name as she tried to wake her up by shaking her, but to no use.
"Take her to Grandma! She needs to be checked out like right now." Benny told the two blonde vampires, who nodded their heads. Erica picked up Amanda's things and put them back into her bag while Rory took Amanda's body into his arms and stood up. The two vampires looked back at us, as they hurried down the hall and towards the entrance doors of the school.
Benny, Gabe, Brandon and I watched them disappear from our sights, Brandon let out a light sigh. "Should we go with them? Or..?" he asked looking at us. I shook my head "no."
"No, it could take almost all day to find out what's wrong with Amanda. She's in good hands and Erica will keep us updated," I explained, Amanda was in Grandma Weir's hands and we know Erica would keep us updated on what was going on with her. "And we still have to find out what the hell's up with Dracua," I supplied crossing my arms.
"Yeah," Benny muttered nodding his head in agreement. Just be alright, Amanda. You know how much I worry about my friends.
-A Bit Later, At Whitechapel High. -
Brandon's Point Of View.
A bit later, we still haven't ran into Dracua. And it was kinda annoying me, yesterday this guy was basically all over the place and now he's nowhere to be found, and either was his little group. And, Jenny, Sarah and Jeremy. But Gabe, Ethan and I weren't really worried about them, they're known for disappearing sometimes. But Benny was kind of worried, 'cause you know. Last time his friends disappeared for a few days, they came back as full vampires. And then they tried to keep Jesse take over the town which ended in Atticus's death and Benny and Sarah's friendship took a badish turn, because of their differences, (you know vampire differences and whatnot). So... "It's almost the end of school, where in the hell is he?" I banged my head against the locker while Ethan closed his locker door and looked at me.
"Probably somewhere busy, we just have to look for him and don't bang your head against the locker," Ethan told me, I rolled my eyes and stuck my tongue out at him.
"Whatever, Mom," I said, rubbing on my arm. I stared at some of the Dusk posters for the screening and then at some of the girls walking by wearing the Dusk tee-shirts, did a Dusker fan meeting let out or something? More and more girls wearing Dusk tee-shirts flooded through the halls and they were followed by a few of our other classmates (who were wearing black clothing and had been seen with Dracua yesterday). Since when were they Duskers?
And right at the end of all of the Dusker fangirls and the teens dressed in black was Dracua, he had his hands tucked into his pockets and he looked really full of himself. "There he is, come on." Ethan grabbed my wrist and pulled me along with him. "Hey, hey, Dracua!" he called out, making Dracua turn and raise an eyebrow as we joined up with him.
"Oh, hey- Ethan and Brandon? Right?" Dracua asked.
Ethan nodded. "Yeah, it is, and I just wondered where you disappeared today, since you weren't in any of the classes."
"That, yeah. I disappeared to help the Dusk fan club with their final touches on their fan-screening."
"You were? I thought that was Sarah's job," I stated. Okay that was slightly strange. Why'd she put him in charge?
"It is, she just put me in charge. 'Cause she couldn't make it today," Dracua told us, stopping in the middle of the hall and crossed his arms. "So, what's your real reason for talking to me?"
"Uh-" I opened my mouth to speak when Ethan slapped his hand on my chest (using a bit of his vampire strength, dammit that hard) and took what looked like class papers from his backpack.
"This, since I'm like the number one student in my class, the teachers trust me to give the homework to the students that couldn't make it," Ethan grinned holding out the papers. Dracua made an "ah" noise and went to grab the papers from my brother. But last minute, Ethan "accidentally" let the papers slip out of his hand and onto the floor. "Oh, damn it. I'm sorry, I'm such a klutz sometimes, here let me."
"No, let me," Dracua bent down and began to pick up the papers, Ethan motioned with his hand to his shoulder.
I nodded my head and on the fast count of three we placed our hands onto his shoulders. We both gasped lightly, our eyes clouded over white and we were thrown into a vision.
Brandon And Ethan's Vision.
Flash
Luckily for us, it just thrown us into a vision and not into Dracua's mind.
The image that take place before us, was a setting in ancient Egypt, it showed us a man with his back turned looking out onto his Kingdom.
And we just felt all of the lust for more power flowing through this man. And something about him just seemed familiar.
Flash
Now the man was kneeling in front of an statue of Anubis, he muttered words in what sounded like an ancient Egyptian language. And it sounded like he was offering a deal to the God. He touched the statue before standing up and walking out of the room. The eyes on the Anubis statue began to glow a bright red, and whispers and mutters filled the room.
Anubis had accepted the deal.
Flash
A bat flew towards us in the vision, it's eyes were a dark glowing red. That just stared into your soul. Then it showed us a human with like four sets of fangs in their mouth and then to their eyes being same color as the bat's eyes.
And they gave off a loud in-vampire hiss.
Flash
Blood, all we saw next was blood. The army of vampires, feeding on the blood of the living. The man feeding off of the females, blood running down his chin as he pulled away from the female's neck as he licked his lips of the blood.
Flash
Now the man watched from far away as his Kingdom was burnt to the ground by the other armies. We felt the anger flowing from him now. He was going to rebuild his army and his Kingdom to be better and stronger.
Flash
The man now kneeled before a group of three men and one girl. And we realized that the girl was Anastasia. And one of the men to be Grant, and they all looked pretty serious about this. He was chained up and the chains were being held by vampires dressed in eighteen hundred's clothing.
"Dracula," Grant began, making the man -Dracula- looked up at them (but still his face was hid by the fact there wasn't much light in the room). "For your crimes against your kind, and human kind, we've decided that you will spend all time in the Council prison, you'll never be able to see the light of day ever again."
As he was being dragged away by the vampires, he screamed out. "I'LL BE BACK, YOUR LITTLE PRISON CAN'T HOLD THE PERSON THAT CREATED YOU ALL! AND WHEN I COME BACK I'LL BE TWICE AS POWERFUL AND NONE OF YOU WILL BE ABLE TO STOP ME!"
His laughter ringed throughout the vision as it ended.
Flash
End of Vision.
Ethan and I gasped and pulled our hands away from Dracua's shoulder. My brother stared at his hand while I stared at mine. That vision was a little off, but it gave us some clues on what to look for, next. "You two alright?" Dracua asked after he got back up with the papers in his hand.
"Yeah, yeah, just a little um- dizzy that's all," Ethan answered with a light chuckle.
"Okay, take it easy and oh thanks for the homework," he called out as he walked away from us.
I let out a breath that I had been holding in for while (it's really easy to do that when you're a vampire). Ethan stood by my side watching Dracua before he disappeared down the next hall. "So did we get what we needed from the vision?" I looked at my brother who nodded his head.
"Yep and if I'm right about what Dracua is, we're gonna need to check out Grandma's books to make sure," Ethan said, looking at me. I had to agree with Ethan on this one, we needed to make sure Dracua is really who we think he is. Before jumping into making battle plans.
And if Dracua really is what we think he is. Than we were in some deep crap.
- With Chloe, A Little While Later. -
Nobody's Point Of View.
Chloe held her books to her chest as she walked down the sidewalk from school towards her house. She thanked God that it had stopped raining right before she left or else she'd be completely soaked by now. So far today has been almost good day, 'cause nobody decided to pick with her today and she was late to one of her classes and almost got detention, but since she was a good student her teacher let her off with a warning, and she also gained a few snickers from her classmates.
That was really embarrassing. Now she had to go home to her goofy older-by-a-year brother and her worried-pissed off parents, ('cause Jenny didn't come home from school yesterday and it was just the same as last time and they were pissed at the fact she was going back down that road again). And she really wasn't looking forward to going home. If I had actual friends, I could go to their house to get away but since I don't have any, she thought, sighing out loud. And as she sighed out, the noise of a car pulling up beside her sounded out. Chloe took a quick look of the car beside her, it looked like a brand new car, year 2012 and the color was black, she went back to looking forwards, she didn't want to be seen by who was driving the car. But it seemed like luck wasn't on her side today, 'cause whoever was driving rolled down the passenger side window, she turned her head and saw a face that she remembered from yesterday. "Ugh, it's you again," Chloe rolled her eyes while Dracua let out a chuckle.
"Yea, it's me again, how're you today?" he asked, driving along side her slowly. Chloe rolled her eyes.
"Fine, why do you ask?" she asked back looking at him. And she found it weird that he was wearing sunglasses when it's cloudy out. "I was just asking," he answered as he continued to follow along side her, until they reached about a mile away from school.
"Okay- why in the Sam heck are you following me for?" Chloe turned to him, holding out her arms.
Dracua put his car into park and turned in his seat to look at the younger girl. "Making sure you get home safely, 'cause you don't know how many weirdo's are out there," he told her truthfully. Chloe scoffed and chuckled lightly.
"Actually. I know how many weirdo's are out there and I've taken this way before, I'll be fine."
"But, today could be different. You never know, and it's also supposed to rain again. I don't want you getting caught out in it,"Dracua stated. Chloe raised her eyebrows up in confusion. "And why do you care so much? You don't even know me," Chloe put all of her books in one arm and put her hand on her hip.
"I know that I don't know you, but I wanna get to know you. So I'm gonna offer you a ride and if you reject it, than I'll leave you alone, I give you my word," he looked at her and she looked down at her feet thinking about it. Thunder rumbled in the back ground and lightning lit the sky, showing that it was going to start raining again soon. Chloe took a look behind her at the darken clouds in the sky before looking back at the guy in the car and sighed out, she would never make it home before it rained.
"Fine," Chloe gave in, a huge grin broke out on Dracua's face as he reached over and opened the passenger door for her. Chloe dropped down into the seat and closed the door, which the slightly older guy locked while he took his car out of park and into drive then drove off.
"Where do you live?"
"Um, about ten minutes from school and about two streets over from that street "Orchard Park"."
"Ah, I know where that is. It's um- "Church Street" right?" Dracua stared at her to make sure he was right, Chloe nodded her head and said "Yeah, that's right." On the way to Chloe's house, they talked about random things, about their families (where Chloe learned Dracua had two parents and no siblings) she told him about her siblings and he just listened to what she had to say about that. Then they got on the topic of what they liked and whatnot, and Chloe had to admit that Dracua was a pretty good (and very charming guy, now that she got to know him a bit). She also had to admit that Dracua was actually her type.
"We're here," he announced after they pulled up to Chloe's house and he put his car into park. "Yep, thanks for the ride Dracua," she thanked him, smiling a little. "Anytime, Chloe," he sent her a smile, which she giggled and made a move to get out of the car when Dracua put his hand on her leg to stop her. "So, uh. Chloe what are you doin' tomorrow night? Because if you aren't doing anything, I'd like to take you out," he said charmingly. Chloe let out a small snort.
"Nothing, just staying home. And I've to say no to a date 'cause I still don't know you all that well an-" Chloe's words were cut off by Dracua leaning in and staring deeply into her eyes. "Chloe. Please. Go. Out. With. Me. Tomorrow. Night." His voice was slightly deeper then it was before, Chloe felt like she was losing control of her mind and actions, and she didn't know why though. "Where at..?" she found herself asking in a dazed voice. Dracua put his hand on her neck and smiled when she shivered lightly.
"At the movie theater. Nine o'clock on the dot, I've something planned very special for tomorrow night and I want you to be apart of it. So, wear that hair of yours up to show off that pretty little neck," he answered. Chloe nodded her head (everything was now completely out of her control) his smile widened and he leaned in, giving her a quick kiss on the cheek. Dracua unlocked the passenger door and Chloe exited the car. As soon as she did that he closed the door and took off at a high rate of speed down the street. The younger girl watched the car speeded down the road, a smile appeared on her face as her eyes flashed from her normal color to red. She looked away and began to walk towards her house with one thing on her mind; Dracua.
- Meanwhile At Benny And Gabe's House -
Gabe's Point Of View.
As soon as Benny, Ethan, Brandon and I arrived back at my house. Ethan and Brandon rushed off to Grandma's magical room to check up on what they saw in the vision from Dracua while Benny and I headed to the living room where Rory and Erica were with a still passed out Amanda on our couch.
"Any news?" Benny asked the two blondes, they sighed and shook their heads.
"No, Grandma was waiting on you guys to get here and Amanda to wake up so she could tell us all the news." Rory replied.
"Did E and Bran find out anything else on Dracua?" Erica turned to us from her spot in one of our chairs.
"Yeah, they got a vision and are checking out their theory right now," I answered pointing behind me, towards the hall where my boyfriend and Ethan were.
"What's their theory?," Rory (this time) asked us, both of us just shrugged our shoulders and said "Don't know". 'Cause they didn't tell us what they saw, just that they had gotten a vision from Dracua and we needed to head straight back here so they could check up on their theory. A few minutes passed before we heard a soft groan come from the figure on the couch, Benny put his fists onto the back of the couch while I just stood there with my arms crossed, a few more groans came from Amanda before her eyes fluttered open and she looked around. "Why am I at Benny and Gabe's house?" Amanda questioned sitting up on the couch, looking at us, than it hit her. "No- you didn't bring Grandma Weir into this? Did you?!" she exclaimed all wild eyed.
"We had to, Amanda. You had blood dripping from your nose, then your eyes rolled into the back of your head and you passed out. You had us worried sick, so we brought you here to see her. Which is what you should've done in the first place," Erica told her, giving her a look.
"I didn't go see her because there wasn't anything wrong with me! Just a few stomach pains," Amanda waved it off, when we heard the sounds of footsteps and Grandma appeared in the doorway between the living room and the kitchen.
"It's more then just a few stomach pains, Amanda. Something very being is wrong with you, and about time you got here, where're Ethan and Brandon?" Grandma asked and Benny just mouthed "down the hall checking up on something".
"Just tell me what's wrong with me already," she said just wanting to get through with this already.
"Well, I ran a few magical tests on you and one came up with the full answer as to what was the cause of your stomach pains, nose bleeds and the hunger, Amanda you're going to take this really, really hard but you're-" Grandma was cut off by Ethan and Brandon entering the room with book in Ethan's hands.
"We found out what Dracu- oh, oops," Brandon chuckled nervously, seeing that he and Ethan spoke up right as Grandma was talking to us about what was going on with Amanda. "Uh, this can wait. Grandma Weir. So um go right back to what you were saying," Ethan tells Grandma, who stared at them before looking back at Amanda, letting out a light sigh.
"Amanda, your vampire side and werewolf side are both dying," Grandma said, wait, what?! How is that even possible?!
"What?! How's that even possible?!" she screamed.
"Calm down, let me explain, the Lucifractor had no effect on you when you held it because it hadn't sucked up enough vampire energy yet, but when it sent out that small field for some reason it sucked out almost all of your vampire side's energy, but left just a bit for it to live on so it decided to suck your werewolf side's energy but since you're ninety percent vampire and only ten percent, your vampire side didn't have much energy to suck. And 'cause of that, both sides of you're dying, the cramps are your body's way of fighting off something, the stronger craving for blood's caused by your vampire side trying to live off of blood, but it's not enough to heal you from dying. And the nose bleed was caused by your body rejecting the blood. We've to give you more blood to keep you alive until we find "the Blood of Elders"," Grandma explained, we all looked at her, as if we weren't already trying to progress all of this, but I think Grandma just completely lost us at "Blood of Elders" part.
"What in the hell is the Blood of Elders?" Amanda asked with a growl, I think Grandma forgot to add the part in where Amanda has a hard time trying to control her vamp and wolf sides.
"Short answer? You need the blood from an elder werewolf and an elder vampire, in order for your sides to live. They just called it the Blood of Elders for some reason. And once you get the blood from the elders and transfer it into your body your sides will basically become one, fifty percent vampire and fifty percent werewolf."
"That's great, Amanda, you're gonna be fine!" Rory chirped happily, making Amanda roll her eyes at him.
"I'll go to the Vampire Council and see if they'll give some blood, and you can call your brother to see if he can get some blood from one of the elder werewolves on his council." Erica said, nodding her head looking at Amanda and Grandma.
Grandma shook her head "no." Now what was it? "I'm afraid you won't find what you need from the Vampire Council, the Whitechapel Vampire Council's members are only five hundred to three years old. You need Vampire blood from one that's at least a thousand years old." she said.
So in other words, Amanda's screwed, right? "I'm so screwed," Amanda breathed out letting her head fall onto the couch. And again, taking the words right out of my mouth.
"I'll just have to go talk to one of my old friends who's with the Council in Ireland to see if they've a member that'll give some blood, I'll be back in a bit." And with that, Grandma left the room to go call her friend. Leaving us in silence, thinking about what we were just told. Jeez this was a lot to take in.
"Amanda, we're sorry about what's happening to you," Ethan tells her, Benny nods his head in agreement while Erica put her hand on Amanda's shoulder, rubbing lightly with her hand.
"It's fine guys, honestly it's my fault. If I wasn't so hardheaded I probably would've gone to see Grandma and caught this sooner before it got this bad. I want to get my mind off of this, so Ethan, Brandon what did you guys find out?" Amanda changed the subject, going to what Ethan and Brandon found out about Dracua.
Well, Brandon and I got a vision from Dracua which showed us some weird information, what we saw in the vision was completely like the lesson Miss Henderson taught us yesterday, and it got Brandon and I to thinking about Dracua could be. And so we came back here to check up on our theory to have it conformed, here just take a look at this book," Ethan handed over the book, Erica took it and read the title. "Tales of The Immortal Dracula."
"Look at the picture on page thirty," Brandon said, Erica listened to him and flipped to page thirty.
"Whoa, that's freaky," she commented, Amanda asked her why was that, Erica showed her the picture on the page, the blue eyed girl took the book and agreed with Erica.
"What's freaky?" Benny asks this time, Amanda hands him the book Benny looks over the picture and I look at the picture over his I see what's freaky, the guy in the picture looks strangely almost like Dracua. But the guy in the picture had shorter hair and looked slightly older than Dracua. Air flew through my hair as Rory appeared near us and got a good look at the guy in the picture.
"Wow! He looks almost like Dracua! You know, maybe he's family to him!" Rory suggested, I heard Ethan sigh out. He's most likely pissed that nobody is getting the big picture here.
"Are you guys getting it? The same appearance, why the vision Ethan and I got from him matches what's in this book and what Miss Henderson was teaching about Dracula, why the most popular kids in school are hanging out with a new guy, it all points to what we're dealing with here and you guys don't even see it!" Brandon exclaimed, getting all us to look at them.
"We're basically dealing with our biggest monster ever here," Ethan stated with a gulp. Was he about to say what I'm thinking he's gonna say? My brother stared at his boyfriend with a look upon his face. He must be thinking the same thing I am thinking.
"What do you mean by E-baby?" Benny asked. I want to slap my face, but I get that Benny wanted to be sure before he said anything.
"We're dealing with our maker... Dracula," Ethan answered as Benny's eyes and the others' eyes widened.
"You're saying that Dracua is actually the Dracula?" Amanda spoke up after some silence. Ethan nodded his head. "Actually makes sense. 'Cause why'd someone like Missy Lane, hang out with someone like Dracua or Dracula, unless she was being tranced," she rambled, running her hand through her hair.
Erica and Ethan stared at her before shaking their heads and rolling their eyes. "So, if Dracua is really Dracula, isn't he supposed to be in prison? And why does he look younger? And why come to Whitechapel of all place?" Benny looked at his boyfriend questioningly.
"Like Miss Henderson said, it was going around that Dracula got out of prison. But I don't think he broke out of prison that long go, and he must've powers to do that, he's the first of our kind, he's probably gain powers over the years and my guess. It's because Whitechapel, weird things happen around here all of the time, it's the perfect place to come here and rise his vampire army once more," Ethan explained.
"Wait, isn't Dracula like over a thousand years old?" Where are you going with this Amanda?
"Yeah, he is actually over three thousand years old. By what Miss Henderson and the book says," Brandon answered.
"Why're you asking?" I crossed my arms with my eyebrow raised.
"Because, if we do have to fight him. I can get his blood! If I can get his blood, I'll live," Amanda squeaked happily, clapping her hands together.
"It all goes on when he decides to make his move. Could be tomorrow or next week, we don't know when it could be." Ethan stated, rubbing his chin with his hand.
"We just have to wait until he makes his move," Benny added. Aw, man. Waiting for something to happen is always the worst part.
- Somewhere In Transylvania. -
Nobody's Point Of View.
Thunder boomed outside of an abandon castle. (well to everyone it was an abandon castle) But to some, it wasn't abandon. No, just simply used as a prison to hold the ones that tried to destroy or go against the Council. And normally they liked to keep all of the Councils updated on what was going on at the prison, but reports had stopped coming in about one or two months ago. But that wasn't why Anastasia sent two of her best guards to Transylvania, she sent them there to see if the number one prisoner was still there.
So this is where those two guards found themselves at right now, walking around the castle trying to find any signs of the guards and the other prisoners. There was nobody on the first, second and third floors of the castle. That was until they reached the fourth floor of the castle. There they found all of the doors to the cells broken off at the hinges and some of them laying on the ground, it looked like some sort of tornado went through there and the male guard stopped the other guard before he could go any farther.
"What?" he asked in a whisper, the guard pointed at the floor. He followed his fellow guard's finger and that's when he saw the trail of blood leading from one of the rooms down the hall and up to the final floor of the castle. They followed the trail of blood, past the cells. The both of them looked away at seeing the inside of the cells. The cells were completely torn apart and there was blood all over the place. When they reached the top of the stairs, one of the guards' eyes widened slightly while the other one put his hand over his mouth as they both stared at the scene.
"Oh my god." The slightly younger guard gasped out, staring at all of the dead bodies laid out on the ground so evenly, as if the person who did this was making it look like art. The guard in front of him, carefully stepped around the bodies taking in their wounds, bite marks to the neck, claw marks on the face and chest, it was quite clear that they all put up a fight before they died. He stopped in front of the largest cell where a heavy door laid on the ground broken in half, there was twenty different sets of large chains on the floor that had been ripped out from the wall with a lot of force.
The vampire stared at the cell for a long time before reaching into his pocket and pulling out a flip-cell phone. He flipped it open, pressing a few buttons he then put the phone up to his ear and listened to it ring until someone on the other end picked up and asked what did they find. "Tell Anastasia, that the prisoner has escaped." he told the other vampire, breathing out heavily.
Wherever he was at, that whole town would be at stake.
- The Next Day, Whitechapel High. -
Benny's Point Of View.
I was walking down the hall towards the entrance of the school, today was the fan screening of Dusk V, Hairy Moon. And you could totally tell it was, 'cause of all the girls (and some of the guys) walking around school wearing the Dusk tee-shirts, of Rochelle and Jakeward, Rochelle and Collin, etc. Of course I was also nervous about today, because last time we had a fan-screening for Dusk. It ended up in a vampire-human battle. Where a lot of Duskers lost their souls, but got their revenge on Jesse by disembodying him. And Sarah was still a "No" show, today, and so was Jenny and Jeremy (who was last with Sarah before they both of them disappeared). I knew it was normal for them not to show up, but two days in a roll? That just wasn't normal for them (mostly Sarah) not to show up. I was holding out hope that Dracula didn't get a hold of them, but that hope was slowly fading away. My phone buzzed with Ethan's text reply, I went to take it out of my pocket when the doors to the school were opened by a lot of students dressed in dark color clothing, (seriously I think I'm having Deja vu right now because I've seen this before). Then I realized that it was Dracula's group of vampires walking in the school in like slow-motion, I looked in closer and saw Dracula was leading in front with two other vampires at his sides. (Dracula didn't know this, but he was totally being a copy-cat right now and I had to admit that Jesse's group had the slow-motion walk into school more down than they did), I went to turn away before Dracula spotted me, when voice that I knew all too well called out my name.
"Benny!" Sarah's voice called out, I turned back around to come face to face with my friend-ish and Dracula's group and himself.
"Sarah, you're right. And you changed your hair color." I said, looking at her now slightly lighter hair. She chuckled.
"Well, that's not the only thing that's changed about her," Jenny's voice states as she appeared from out behind the group. And she was followed by Jeremy.
"I'm just gonna pass all of the things that changed about you guys later, right now I just want to know where in the hell did you guys disappear off to!" I exclaimed quietly.
"That's not important, Benny, are you coming to the fan-screening tonight? 'Cause it'd be so awesome to have you there," the vampiress told me patting my shoulder.
"The answer's still "No", I'm not into Dusk anymore," I reminded her, she oh'ed and slapped her forehead.
"Oh, right, but still it'd be awesome if you could come, Dracua's planning something huge for it," she supplied, I nodded my head letting my eyes look over at Dracula.
"I'm sure he is." I mumbled, shifting my eyes away from Dracula.
"Well, we should get going, we've a lot of things to do today." Dracula announced, his group agreed with him and began to walk past me.
"See you later, Bens, hope you can make it tonight," Sarah said, walking past me with the group I watched the group walk away and Dracula was slowly following behind them.
"I know what you are, and I know what you are doing." I began as Dracula turned around to face me with a look on his face that was smug for some reason. "And just so you know, my friends and I aren't going to let you get away with it,"I finished. Dracula let out a dark chuckle and walked closer to me.
"Now, listen here, Benny. You, your little friends and your Seer boyfriend won't be able to stop me. I'm twice as powerful then I was all of those years ago and I've learned from my mistakes," Dracula said tightening his grip on my arm.
I hissed quietly from the pain I was feeling. Dracula smirked lightly and jerked me towards him, until our faces were inches apart from each other. "So, I'm going to warn you, stay out of my way and nobody gets hurt. And if you do get in my way, let's just say you don't wanna find out," Dracula told me, his eyes glowing red slightly.
I yanked my arm out of his grip and gave him a glare, before storming off down the hall towards my boyfriend's locker, meanwhile, Dracula watched the young vampire storm off down the hall, his eyes fading back to their normal color, he wasn't going to let teenagers spoil his plans not by a long shot. Finally, I reached Ethan's locker, where I found him, Erica and Amanda (who had a cup of blood in her hand, sipping every now and then) while chatting with them. "Guys, you'll never believe what just happened." I spoke up cutting Amanda off in some mid-rant about the new Hunger Games movie that was coming out soon.
"Must be something important about our maker, Dracula." Amanda said while swallowing the blood she had in her mouth.
"What happened, B?" Ethan questioned, turning his attention to me.
"Well, I was at the entrance, when I saw Dracula walk in with his group of vamps. And they came right up to me, I went to turn away when I heard a voice call out my name. It turns out to be Sarah, she, Jenny and Jeremy have joined Dracula's side," I answered looking at them.
"And the word coming up is "unwillingly" joined him, right?" Erica waved her finger around, I nodded my head.
"Yep, it seems that all of his members in his group didn't join willingly. Or that's the feeling I'm getting from them." I confirmed with a shrug of my shoulders.
"Was there anything else about this talk?" Amanda burped after she asked that, she got looks from her two friends and she excused herself for burping.
"Yeah, Dracula threatened me, about us staying away if we know what's good for us," I snorted, yeah like we were going to stay away.
"Nothing else, B?" Ethan asks, I put on my thinking face to remember what else I heard, Dracula threatening me, seeing how different the others looked and.. holy crap. The Dusk V, Hairy Moon fan-screening and my friend saying Dracula had something huge planned.
Oh my God. Does that mean...? "The Dusk fan-screening, Sarah asked if I was coming to the fan-screening and she made a comment about "Dracua" having something huge planned for the screening," I realized.
"No way, is he planning what I think he's planning to do at that fan-screening?" Erica gasped looking at my boyfriend.
"The book said he wanted to re-rebuild his army, and what better way to do that then at a fan-screening for a movie about vampires that teenage girls and guys are completely obsessed with." Ethan explained, with a pointed look.
Amanda groaned. "Just great, doesn't he know that Jesse already did this?" she held out her arms, before crossing them and drinking from her cup of blood again. Ethan and I stared at her with these looks on our faces that said "Are you serious right now?" Amanda stared back at us continuing to drink from her cup of blood, not even saying a word to us, Ethan just shook his head and turned his head away from her to Erica. I had to admit that Amanda had a point there though. You don't see vampires crashing a Star Wars fan-screening. But then again they basically don't let anyone in if they aren't wearing Star Wars costumes or tee-shirts.
"So, it looks like we're gonna need to be ready for night?" Erica tucked her hands into her pockets, he nodded with a sigh.
"Yep. I'll tell Brandon, Benny will tell Gabe and you guys can tell Rory, sound good?" Ethan suggested the idea.
"Sounds good, Amanda and I'll go do that right now, come on Amans," she agreed tugging on the other girl's arm.
"I don't know why we always get stuck telling your boyfriend the plans," Amanda whined, as Erica started to drag her away from us. "I don't know either, you can ask Ethan about that later." she told her, Amanda whined again, but she went with Erica instead of complaining.
After they walked away from us, I turned to Ethan with a mused look on my face. "So, you never gonna tell them why you always pair them up together?" I asked with a smirk on my face.
"I'll eventually. Just not right now, I don't wanna give them something else to yell about," Ethan answered fixing his backpack.
"True, let's go find Gabe and Brandon before the bell rings," I replied holding out my hand. Ethan laced his fingers with mine, he used his other hand to shut the locker and we began to walk down the hall to find our brothers to tell them the change of plans.
- With Amanda And Erica -
Later that day, Amanda was talking to Erica about her brother (once again) while the both of the walked down the hall towards the gym. The blonde listened to her friend talk about her brother having crazy mood swings and weird cravings whatnot nodding her head along while watching some people dressed in black clothing. "Yesterday, he was craving live horse. Now today he's craving live cow. So my Mom's having to do a special run to one of the Werewolf food dealers for cow meat." Amanda explained taking a sip from her cup (which still had blood in it).
"I tell ya, my brother's a pain in the ass sometimes," she supplied with a chuckle. Erica just hummed lightly, staring ahead with her arms crossed. The other girl stared at her before waving her hand in front of her face. "Are you even listening to me?" she snapped continuing to wave her hand in front of her friend's face, until Erica grabbed her hand to get her to stop with that.
"I'm listening to you Amanda! I was just watching the gym," Erica stated Amanda raised an eyebrow.
"Why're you watching the gym? Nothing's going on in there but gym class," Amanda pointed out, the blonde shook her head.
"No, gym class was canceled today. For both inside and outside. Nobody has any reason to go in there, but I've seen ten different people wearing black clothing walking into the gym."
"Maybe they're just, I don't know hanging out in the gym..? Skipping class? Who knows?"
"I'm going to check it out," the blonde haired girl said, walking towards the gym doors.
"Air, Air, Air! Erica!" Amanda whispered/shouted her name following closely behind her.
Erica stopped at the gym doors and took a look inside through the window. Amanda pushed Erica with her hip, trying to get a good look inside the gym as well. The move almost made Erica lose her footing but she managed to catch herself last minute. She pushed Amanda some with her hip until they were both in a position where they could see in the window.
Both girls' eyes landed on some figures that were standing in the middle of the gym. They all seemed to be talking about something. The blonde put her ear against the door, trying to hear what they were talking about. But all she heard was low mutters of "Plan'll be completed tonight" and "Blood will run through the streets after tonight".
"Damn it, I can't hear much. What do you see?" Erica cursed. Amanda tried to focus her vision on the figures and was able to make out a few of them.
"Alright. Um, I can make out Mandy, Jules Peterson, Tyler Green, Sarah, Jenny, Jeremy, Dracula's there of course and.."
"And..? Amanda you don't just trail off like that," Erica grumbled lifting her head up to look in the room when she saw why Amanda trailed off. Standing right next to Dracula was Chloe, her boyfriend's human little sister.
"She looks completely human to me," Amanda noted. Chloe did look normal, she was dressed in her normal clothing, she still had her glasses on and she had her hair in a ponytail, most likely she was just in a strong trance like the others.
"Well, if we don't stop Dracula she's not going to be human for long. Come on let's go before someone sees us," she pointed out, Amanda nodded her head and moved away from the gym doors. Both girls quickly walked away from the gym doors looking behind them to make sure nobody was watching them. While behind the gym doors a girl stood up and looked out the window watching as Amanda and Erica's figures disappeared down the hall. The girl shook her head and walked away from the doors over to join the group who were waiting on her.
Unknown to the girls, Dracula and his group knew they were there and acted like they didn't know it.
- Sometime After School -
After school, Ethan texted the others to meet us at my house ('cause Grandma wouldn't bug us with a lot of questions like Ethan and Brandon's parents and Amanda's parents would do). For all of us to talk over the plan of "attack" for tonight at the Dusk fan-screening against Dracula. Whatever the plan of attack was going to be, it had to be backed up by a backup plan (like we did last time) just in case Dracula does something we didn't think he was going to do. So right now, I stood by the couch where Amanda, Erica, Rory and Brandon were sitting and Gabe was leaning against the wall (why though, I've no freaking idea). And Ethan was standing up and in front of the others with his hands in his pockets. And we were basically waiting on someone to open their mouth to start with the plan.
"What's the plan..?" Amanda asked picking up her (now) full cup of blood and taking a sip from it. Ethan inhaled and then exhaled.
"Well, the plan's simple, we gather our gear and head to the fan-screening to stop Dracula and hopefully save the fans from being turned into vampires and the members, if we can break the trance. If not, we've to get rid of them," Ethan answered.
"We've to break the trance, because Sarah, Jenny, Jeremy and Chloe are all innocent in this," Erica pointed out and of course we noticed the slightly change in Rory's face when his sisters' names came up. He was worried over his sisters' safety. And pissed at Dracula for doing this, I hoped when we cornered Dracula, he wouldn't try to go at him. 'Cause let's face it, none of us really stood a chance against Dracula.
"If Dracula's trance isn't that strong we should be able to break it like Erica did with Sarah that one time she was tranced by Jesse and Atticus, but we don't know that it can be broken by a hard knock on the head. Since he's older and powerful and not to forget he's our maker," I explained.
"Looks like we're gonna have to try that or Benny could find a spell that gets people out of trances," Amanda said. I made a face, why am I the one having to find spells?
"Why me?" I turned to look at her, she shrugged. "Because you're better at it and last time I found a spell on vampires to make them disappear, I made the spellbook disappear," she reminded, oh yeah she had a point there.
"So all of that's covered, what's plan B? In case plan A fails," Gabe questions looking at Ethan.
"Plan B is Holy Water, I think you know where I'm going from here," Ethan tells him and he nodded his head.
"So we're all in charge of the weapons and you two are in charge of setting up plan B?" Brandon asked, Ethan nodded his head confirming what his brother asked.
Amanda took one huge sip from her cup and placed it down on the coffee table. Before she stood up from the couch, we looked at her. "Well? What're we waiting for? We gotta of work to do!" She announced putting her hands on her hips, acting like she was in charge.
We all stared at her before nodding our heads and getting down to business.
- Later That Night -
Nobody's Point Of View.
By the end of the day they had gotten all of their weapons and went home to pack them all up and make sure that they were ready for tonight. And this is where we found Amanda, zipping up a large-long duffle bag which had two blasters, a new sun-saber, her spellbook ('cause you never know) and a vial, for when she gets a hold of Dracula's blood, so she could put the blood in there and get it to Grandma Weir so she could mix it together. She reached for her phone and opened up the text messaging, she typed out a quick message to her friends saying that she was on her way and would be there in about three minutes. Amanda hit the send button and slipped her phone into her pocket, she picked up the duffle bag and threw it on her shoulder and made her way out of her room. Her parents left about ten minutes ago and Luke was playing a new video game (it was a Lego game) with headphones on, so she was in the clear to leave the house without any questions on what she was doing. As she quietly walked down the stairs and towards the front door, she didn't hear someone following behind her just as quietly.
"Where're you going?" Luke asked suddenly making Amanda jump and spin around her heels to face her brother.
"Uh- over to Ethan's house to work on a project," Amanda answered quickly, Luke raised an eyebrow staring at his sister.
"Right... where're you really going?" He asked again, she rolled her eyes, seriously since when was Luke wanting to know where she's going?
"To Ethan's house and if I was going anywhere else, I wouldn't tell you." She replied turning around. He let out a light sigh.
"Well, if you won't tell me. I guess I could tell Mom, but then Ethan would say that you were at his house, so I'd have to make up a very believable lie or tell her that you had that ex boyfriend of yours over that one time all night and about how your scent was mixed with his and let's see what she'd say about that," Luke grinned. Amanda turned around, with the look of "You Wouldn't Dare" written all over her face.
"You wouldn't dare, it'd get you into trouble. You'd get nothing out of this." Amanda pointed out.
"True, but you could tell me where you're going and you'll have to take me with you so I won't tell Mom," he hinted, she shook her head.
"No, no. I'm not doing that Luke. What I'm doing tonight is really a dangerous and serious thing! And you can get hurt, 'cause you haven't come into your powers yet- I don't want that to happen."
I'm not completely useless. Sis, I can help, I have magic. Let me help you alright? And you know I won't shut up until you say "yes"," he reminded. Amanda groaned, he had a point she never really could say "no" to her brother.
"Ugh, fine. You can COME. Just make sure to use your magic and don't get in the way of any teeth. I'll fill you in on what we're dealing with," Amanda said heading towards the door, Luke grabbed his jacket that was hanging on the coat rack and slipped it on his body as his sister began to explain.
- Meanwhile At The Keaner's House -
Chloe finished tying her hair into a high ponytail, she smiled to herself before putting her jacket on, Chloe winked at herself then walked over to her bed, where she had pillows shaped up to make it look like she was asleep like she said she was. She had to make up a lie that she wasn't feeling well so she could head up to bed to get some rest. But little did her parents know that she was lying so she could sneak out without basically being noticed. She fixed the sheets and covers to where it covered up the pillows made to look like her.
Chloe turned off her bedside lamp, she reached down and grabbed her backpack, throwing on her shoulders as she headed to the window and opened it. She looked behind her before carefully climbing out the window. Chloe closed the window and then started to climb down. As soon as she was about one foot from the ground, she jumped off and landed right on her feet. She took one look at her house before taking off in a run towards the theater in town.
- At Ethan And Brandon's House -
Benny's Point Of View.
I followed behind Samantha and Ross as they rewalked me through the rules to make sure that I didn't forget them. Brandon, Gabe and Rory were in the living room with Jane who was sitting on the floor watching Dusk one through the musical. All of our gear was on the couch and Mrs. M hadn't questioned it yet. So far in the clear and Ethan was upstairs finishing up something.
"Jane's bedtime is nine thirty, we should be home around eleven and if something goes wrong you've my number, Ross's and the hospital's number," Samantha instructed putting on her coat.
"And no light-sabers thingies," Ross added, I nodded my head.
"Got it, everything's gonna be fine on mine and Erica's watches, no need to worry," I reassured with a smile.
"Make sure to remind Erica when she gets here." She tells me I nodded my head again.
"Alright, honey, it's time to go," Mr. M puts his hand on her shoulder.
"Okay. Bye, Ethan, Jane!" she yelled, Jane shouted back with "Bye, Mom. Love you!" and Ethan shouted "bye" from upstairs. "Too busy with the science project to come down and say goodbye. Oh well," she breathed out turning around to the front door and went to open it, when someone on the other side opened the door.
"Woah! Sorry, Mrs. M, I didn't know you were there," Amanda apologized Samantha and Ross moved away from the door to let her in.
"Oh, it's fine Amanda, but next time knock so we know you're walking through the door." Samantha said. Amanda nodded and walked through the door and I thought it was just her until her brother Luke walked through the door as well.
"I think you guys remember Luke, my brother," She closed the door and Ethan's parents nodded their heads.
"Yes, we do, my. Luke you have grown since the last time we saw you, when was that?" Ross asked.
"Five years ago, sir." Luke answered, Ross muttered a "wow" underneath his breath. 'Well that's what being a werewolf does to you,' Amanda thought. Oh god, powers you work now? Damn you, you never, ever work when I want you to.
"Well. We should get going, now we can catch up later, don't want to be late to dinner with your parents. And oh, Amanda, Ethan's upstairs doing the science project, in case you were wondering where he was." Samantha pointed up to the stairs and Amanda nodded her head saying, "thanks Mrs. M." They told all of us "bye" and were out the door and towards their car in seconds. About a minute later I heard the car start up and pull out of the driveway. As soon as I heard that I turned to Amanda with my arms crossed and the look of "Are you serious?" on my face.
"Look, I know what you're gonna say but I had to Benny. Or else he was going to tell my Mom some very important and secret stuff! And besides that, we need all of the help we can get right now. I already filled him in on everything, just let him help," Amanda explained giving me a begging look.
"Ugh- fine he can help. He's gonna be under your watch though, if anything happens to him it's your fault," I sighed and Amanda rolled her eyes at me, I just closed my mouth knowing she got the message.
"So where's Ethan and Erica?" she asked.
"Ethan's upstairs- uh, actually he's getting up from his bed and coming down the stairs in a few seconds and Erica's still at her house, she had something last minute to do," I answered tucking my hands into my pockets as Ethan came down the stairs with a large duffle bag the same size as Amanda's except hers was pink and Ethan's was dark blue.
"Hey, B." Ethan greeted once he was off the stairs, I replied with a "hey back" and he gave me a quick kiss on the lips and turned to Amanda and he noticed that Luke was standing beside her. "Let me guess, wanted to know where you were going, you said "I'm not telling you", then he threatened you about telling secrets to your Mom and... in order for him not to tell your Mom. You agreed to bring him along...?"
"Yeah, basically. And I already told him about staying away from the teeth and Benny told him the same thing too." She confirmed.
Ethan nodded his head and went into the living room, we followed behind him. There he put his duffle bag down next to the others' bags, except Gabe's bag, 'cause he was holding onto it tightly for some reason. I had no idea why though. Something inside it must be very important. "So, when your Grandma and Erica get here, we hit the road and should make it there by nine, giving us an hour before the screening begins to set everything up."
"And when we get there we've to go over who's in charge of what area of the movie theater right?" Brandon asked looking at his brother.
"Yep," he nodded.
"Great, the sooner we stop Dracula from turning most of the student body into vampires and get his blood for Amanda the better," Gabe spoke, straightening his bag on his shoulder.
We all agreed with him, and of course that's when the doorbell rang. We looked at the doorway in between the living room and the front entrance. "That must be Erica, I will get it," Brandon walked towards the front door and opened it. I heard him try to say "Hi". Before I heard him let out a grunt and the image of two kids running from the front door to the kitchen yelling slightly about being hungry.
"Harry! Chase! Don't eat the food! Mom already fed you guys earlier!" Erica's voice shouts, as Brandon closed the door and quickly came back to the living room with Erica walking behind him. But before she entered the living room, she stopped and stared harshly at her two brothers in the kitchen, they probably found the cookies on the counter, (Grandma's cookies, she baked them and let me take some over here for Ethan and Brandon's family to enjoy). "Put the cookies, down boys!" she demanded her voice deepening some to her vampire voice (yeah the two knew about the supernatural world, they had found out about it sometime after Erica turned into a vampire). We heard a small reply of "Okay, Erica". And she smiled, before entering the living room.
"Erica, um- excuse my language, but what in the hell are your brothers doing here?!" Amanda cursed quietly, looking at the blonde.
"Well, you see something last minute came up and that was something that came up. The babysitter that always babysits my brothers called in sick, my parents had this huge dinner for my Dad's job, so since I babysit Jane, my parents left me in charge of Harry and Chase."
"Awesome, just super awesome."
"My Grandma can't handle two more kids that are most likely high on sugar right now, she has Jane, Gabriel, Destiny and Graydon to take care of," I pointed out, crossing my arms again.
Unless they're asleep by the time Grandma gets here - it's not likely that'll happen - so she wouldn't have to worry about them," Ethan suggested, well that's what it sounded like to me, a very good suggestion. It seemed to hit Amanda before it hit me, 'cause a huge grin appeared on her face.
"I got it, a sleeping spell! A sleeping spell can put them to sleep and don't worry Erica, it's a normal old sleeping spell it's kinda like sleeping meds but you don't have to take it, just cast it and I actually get to try it out!" Amanda clapped happily.
"No, no, no, no. You're not using a spell on my brothers that you hadn't even tried out yet." Erica denied shaking her head, Amanda pouted and slammed her foot onto Ethan's hard wood floor, clearly upset that she wasn't going to be using the spell.
"You never let me do anything! I just wanna do one spell and you won't let me!"
"I'm not letting you use a spell on my brothers, because one; you never used the spell before and two; 'cause you suck at spells almost all of the time," she tells her, Amanda gasped, looking rather hurt. Before the two girls could start fighting, Gabe quickly chanted out some words in Latin and two light blue sparks shot of his fingertips and towards the kitchen, three seconds later (and right when Amanda was gonna find some harsh words to say to Erica) we heard two thuds from the kitchen. We looked at each other in confusion except Gabe was smirking to himself, we rushed to the kitchen where we found Harry and Chase both passed out cold on the floor. We turned to Gabe who was standing in the dinning room smirking.
"I've used the spell before, when one of the girls couldn't sleep, I know how it works, so let's get them on the couch and go, 'cause Grandma is making her way up the steps," Gabe explained before walking away. Ethan looked at me and I just shrugged my shoulders.
After letting Grandma in and getting Chase and Harry onto the couch, we were ready to go. Gabe and I were by Grandma who wanted a last minute talk with us, while Ethan and the others stood by the front door. "I just want to remind you boys to be careful, Dracula's more powerful then you think, he won't be easy to take down like Jesse was, and remember you must get his blood, so we can help Amanda," Grandma reminded, we nodded our heads.
She pulled us both in for a hug, and we hugged her back just as tightly as she did with us. She kissed both of our cheeks before putting her head on my shoulder. "Benny, just remember. When all other things fail, draining always weakens them," she whispered a riddle, before letting go of us.
I stared at her, she just gave us a small smile before sending us on our way. Leaving me with my thoughts, what the hell did she mean by that?
- A Little While Later In Benny's Car -
Ethan's Point Of View.
We were all stuck together in Benny's car, I mean all of us, Benny's car is made for what like four people? And we stuffed eight people into it, and it was feeling like a damn clown car, Benny, Gabe, Brandon and I were stuffed in the front while Amanda, Erica, Rory and Luke tried to fit in the backseat. And the two that were fighting about space was the two siblings. And actually cross "feeling" part out, it was actually a damn clown car.
"Damn it, Luke stay in your own damn spot." Amanda hissed pushing her brother with her shoulder. Luke replied back with pushes of his own.
"No. You stay in your spot," Luke hissed back, pushing harder this time, I rolled my eyes trying to pay them no attention.
Benny looked up into the mirror and saw them pushing on each other. "You two stop it, or else you're gonna be walking to the theater if you don't stop fighting right now," he warned them, lowering his voice to sound serious. And it worked, 'cause they stopped pushing on each other and quieted down. I watched my boyfriend smirk to himself as he continued to drive down the street which was unsurprisingly dead, but then again everybody was at the fan-screening of Dusk V. After a few more minutes of silence, Brandon cleared his throat. "So um how're we gonna get in?"
"Just leave it to me, I know a few things about sneaking into movie theaters." Benny answered.
"And you guys will explain the plan when we get there too?" Luke asked, we all nodded our heads. We get it, this was like his first adventure, so yeah he was gonna be asking about every little thing. "Alright good," he mumbled to himself, while we all shook our heads. Luke you got a long way to go before you get used to this stuff.
Soon we arrived at the movie theater, where there was a long line of teenage girls, a few adults, and a few guys outside the movie theater waiting to get inside to watch the Dusk V, movie. Benny put his car into park and we sat there for a second, looking.
"The bouncers look like they belong with Dracula," Erica and Rory stated from the backseat as we focused on the two guys at the front door. Man I tell ya, there's so much Deja Vu about this. We were in this same spot almost two years ago and here we're back in the same spot.
Luke sighed. "We aren't getting through those doors."
Gabe chuckled along with Benny. "Who said we were going through those doors?"
"Oh, I don't like this," the youngest one in the car admitted, as Benny looked behind him and backed the car up, Amanda rubbed her brother's arm in comfort. "Don't worry, Benny, Ethan and the others know what they're doing," she tells him.
"Still doesn't make me feel better."
Amanda didn't reply to him as we pulled into an alleyway beside the movie theater, Benny stopped the car suddenly causing us to jerk forwards some, except Rory since he wasn't wearing a seatbelt so his face slammed into the seat hard. "OW!" he yelped holding his face. "That hurt!"
"That didn't hurt that much, Ror, you're a vampire remember?" I turned to the backseat, where Rory was holding his face.
"I know, but still vampire or not, that hurt like hell." Erica cooed rubbing his face. I rolled my eyes and turned around. Benny took out the car keys and put them into his pocket.
"Alright, it's time to gear up," Benny announces, opening the driver's side door. I slipped out through the driver's door while Gabe and Brandon did the same thing but through the other door, and the others hopped out of the backdoors, slamming them shut. We met at the trunk of the car, where Benny popped it open, to reveal our gear, I picked up my duffle-bag as Amanda picked up hers, Gabe grabbed his backpack, Erica and Rory grabbed two bags with some stakes and water blasters and Brandon grabbed the last bag which had everything else in it. Benny slammed the trunk down and pulled out his keys, hitting the lock button on the keys, he smiled when he heard the doors lock with a single chirp. "Okay, c'mon let's go."
We walked towards the double doors, which were bounded with chains and a lock, just like the last time we were here. "Looks like we aren't getting in this way either," Luke noted, turning to move away, when Amanda grabbed his shoulder, with some of the strength she had left. She shook her head and held her brother in place.
"Allow me to do this," Benny stepped up and with one hard yank, he ripped off the chains and the lock. He turned to us with a smile on his face before dropping it onto the ground. Without another word he opens the door and holds it open for us.
"I can't wait to get my strength, that way I can do stuff like that," Luke said walking through the doors, followed behind Brandon, Gabe, Rory, Erica and I. Then last but not least was Amanda closing the doors quietly behind her.
I took a deep breath in. "Okay, here's the plan. Benny and I will handle "Plan B", and the inside of the theater, Amanda, you and Luke will handle the lobby, Erica and Rory, you two can handle the people trying to make a run for it and kill any vampires that get in your way, got it?" They both nodded their heads, "alright and Gabe and Brandon you guys are in charge of the blind-spots, if we have a vamp in a blind-spot you guys take them out before they hurt us or anyone else."
"Got it, except. If Jenny or Jeremy get in our way, we can't kill them." Erica reminds, I nodded my head in agreement, we know we can get them out of the trance, it's just how do we do that is still in question.
"Okay, let's go get the work done, Amanda, you remember how to get to the lobby without being noticed?" I asked her, she nodded her head.
"Time to kick some major vampire ass guys!" Brandon shouted quietly, and with that we all went our own ways to stop Dracula.
Benny's Point Of View.
I waited outside of the room, where the water system was at while Ethan set up plan B, just in case something was to happen we'd have a backup plan to fall on. And the gut feeling I was having right now, I knew something was to go wrong. I sighed and checked my watch, almost twenty minutes until they let in the fans for the screen and almost twenty minutes until this place becomes a human snack bar and a turning base. And we have to stop that from happening. 'Come on, E, we gotta go start plan A, what's taking so long?' I thought to myself, tapping my foot on the ground looking both ways, still no one was coming down this way, probably because they were all in the front making sure everything was ready. I waited a few more minutes, before I heard the door handle start to move, I quickly moved out of the way as my boyfriend came out of the room with the half empty duffle bag on his shoulder. I looked at him with a look on my face. "Is it done?"
"Yeah, now I just have to send out a text message to the others that plan B is ready." Ethan answered. I nodded my head. Ethan whipped out his phone and began to text the others that plan B was ready as we walked towards the theater where the fan-screening'd be taking place. And that's when I heard voices coming from inside the theater. Wanting to find out what was going on, I made my way over to the curtains and opened them slightly, there I saw Dracula, Sarah, Jeremy, Jenny and Mandy on the stage looking at about fifty other guys and girls sitting in the movie theater seats.
"Now tonight's the night, that I. Dracula, your leader will finally finish what I started so many years ago." Dracula began, and his members cheered, he held up his hand. "Quiet down, let me continue. Now after tonight, we'll finally have enough members to take over this town. And then the whole world." And they cheered once again, I sighed out quietly. Jenny ran her hand down Dracula's arm staring at him flirtingly. He moved away from her and looked at his members once more. "In just a few short minutes those doors will open, the fans will flood in, excepting to get their full Dusker dreams, which we'll give them!" I think everyone's Dusker dream is to meet Dirk, not to be turned into a vampire. "Now, go get into your positions! We've guests to greet."
With that, they all got up and went to do as they were told, as soon as they were out of his sight. Dracula turned to Jenny, he grabbed her roughly by her arm and opened his mouth to say something when a yell of "Dracua!" He let go of her arm and turned to the voice. Chloe came up running, with a huge smile on her face. He smiled at her as she threw herself into his arms, I frowned at why she did that, I didn't get to see or hear much more I felt a hand on my shoulder, I let out a small gasp before being pulled away from the curtains, just as Dracula turned to look at them, just seeing them move from the air, he stared at the curtains for a second before returning his attention back to Chloe.
When Ethan thought everything was clear. He took his hand off of my mouth. "Jeez, that was a close one," he muttered. I shook my head in agreement, that was a close one. "Did you hear anything interesting?"
"No, nothing different then what else we were hearing before. Just that Chloe's here and now that I see it, he really has taken a huge liking towards her and I don't know why."
"Maybe, he sees something in her, maybe he thinks she's gonna be a great queen when he takes over the world."
"Maybe," I trailed off, turning my head to see that Ethan still had his phone in his hand. "Did you send the text yet?"
"Not yet, I noticed you peeking at Dracula and his group. So I came over to see if I could hear them too, and well you know how that went," he answered.
(For some reason), I blushed lightly and waved my hand for him to continue with the text, Ethan smiled and finished texting the others and hit the send button.
"And now, we wait."
- With Gabe & Brandon -
Gabe and Brandon made their way up to the projection booth, where two vampires were at messing around with the projector, trying to make sure that they had everything hooked up for the fan-screening. Gabe looked up through the small window and saw the two vampires basically trying to figure out how a film projector worked. He scoffed at their stupid-ness and unzipped his backpack and brought out a small crossbow. He hooked in one arrow and then held up his hand. Brandon took out the dagger that Ethan let him have just this once, and held it at the ready, he nodded his head at his boyfriend, Gabe counted down from three to one and then he threw open the door (which was unlocked, 'cause man these vamps were so dumb). The two vampires could only turn around and hiss at them, their fangs out and eyes glowing yellow.
Gabe aimed his small crossbow at the vampire who was messing with the projector and fired, the arrow hit the vampire in the chest, he let out a painful hiss before turning into ash, the other vampire hissed hiss and went to charge them, Brandon acted quickly and threw the dagger at the vamp and it hit him right in the chest, the vampire let out a light-painful scream before disappearing in a bright-ish light. "Whoa," the shorter breathed out, amazed at what he just saw, ('cause he had never seen it before). "Remind me to thank your Grandma for giving Ethan these daggers," he told Gabe who smiled and closed the door.
"You can handle the projector, while I set up my slightly bigger crossbow," Gabe said moving over to one of the windows and began to set up his crossbow. Brandon nodded and started to set up the projector. As they did this, Gabe's phone beeped.
He took it out and checked it, "Ethan just texted me. Plan B's ready."
"Great, now we just have to wait for hell to break loose."
- Amanda & Luke -
A few minutes later, Amanda and Luke stood in the line for popcorn, behind three fangirls talking about who Rochelle was going to choose, two were die-hard Collin/Rochelle shippers and while the other one was a die-hard Jakeward/Rochelle shipper and they were fighting about which ship was the endgame. Which was pissing Amanda off, 'cause one if these damn girls read the books, then they'd know that Collin/Rochelle's ship was endgame! And two they were holding up the damn line!
"Hey, hey. Fangirls, could you PLEASE move, okay? Some of us want to be alive by the time you're done talking." Amanda glared at them, they turned to her and tried to gave her a glare, but that didn't work, so they just grabbed their large popcorn, three large sodas and candy and left the line heading towards the now packed movie theater. "Ugh I hated it when people just sit there and talk."
"But did you've to be mean to them? Couldn't you've just asked them nicely?" Luke asked.
Amanda looked at him. "You can't, or else they won't take you seriously."
"Well, I guess you have a point there." She smiled at him and turned to the candy counter person, only to see that the person waiting on them was none other than her old crush's sister; Della.
"Oh, hey. Della, how's it goin'?" she asked awkwardly, she really hadn't talked to Daniel or Della since the whole demon animals thing.
Della cleared her throat and placed a smile on her face. "It's been fine, Amanda, so... can I get you guys anything?"
"Uh- yeah, a large bucket of popcorn with extra salt and ex-extra butter, and a large cola," Amanda told her, Della nodded her head and turned to her brother.
"A another thing of butter and some red hot's candy," he supplied. Della raised an eyebrow at ask of another thing of butter, but shrugged it off and went to load them up on the popcorn, candy and cola. As she did that Amanda's cell beeped and she took it out of her pocket.
From Ethan,
Plan B is set, be on the ready.
Amanda showed the text to her brother who nodded his head, she slipped her phone back into her pocket, they both looked at the theater where Dusk V was at, and watched as the last two people walked down the hall and disappeared from their sight. The two eyed the three vampires standing guard outside the theater, who eyed them back, before they turned around and faced Della.
- Benny & Ethan -
Ethan had made his way to the back of the theater, while I stayed in the front near the screen and stage, where Dracula and the others were at, I heard mutters from behind and beside me, people talking about what'll happen in this film, geez. If you read the books then you know what'll happen. That's like the number one rule in the fanboys-girls' book.
Few more minutes of mutters of stupid-fake spoilers, around me, the theater's lights cut off and everybody got quiet, and so it begins now. Suddenly a spotlight appeared down on the stage, where Sarah stood smiling to herself, as she opened her mouth to speak. "Welcome Duskers! To the fan-screening of Dusk V Hairy Moon, I know you're all dying to see what we've in store for you tonight, well, let's just say it starts with a bite."
"But before we can begin with the movie, let's get to the door prize first," Jenny added from beside her holding a small bag, oh boy. I'm having strange flashbacks right now, seriously. Dracula's kinda ripping off of Jesse right now, but he's using the fan-screening to get more vampires for his army and not for souls to use to bring his flock back from the dead. Jenny dug around in the bag and pulled out a piece of paper ad handed it to Sarah who opened it. "And we have a winner. Can Canna O'Reilly come up onto the stage?" she asked, a girl with blonde-red hair stood up wearing a Collin/Rochelle shirt, and a happy smile on her face.
"Oh my gosh, I actually won?" Canna gasped in surprised, she asked herself a few times before rushing up to the stage, everyone in the theater clapped for her, as she walked up the stairs. She stopped in front of the spotlight, Jenny and Sarah moved out of the way and let Dracula come forwards.
I knew where this was going, I just did. "What do I get?" she asked looking around. Dracula smiled, and I thought for a second I saw his teeth change. "What do you get? You get what you and the other Duskers have always wanted; This." Dracula smirked as he let his fangs slip out, he let out a loud hiss before he quickly and harshly bit the girl on the neck. She tried to open her mouth to say something, but all that came out was a low whimper of pain. I watched the scene play out in front of me, while everyone else thought it was just some show like they did last year and the year before. (except that one year it wasn't a show, it was actually real). The girl went limp in his arms and he let out of her, letting the girl fall onto the ground as he smiled happily and wiped his mouth of the blood. The fans gasped and smiled, before they started to clap their hands. Dracula looked over at Jeremy who had his arm around his cousin, who was smiling at him. "One down and like over two hundred more to go."
And just as he said this to Jeremy, Ethan shouted out the same words as he did the last time he did this. "Fire!" Dracula's head snapped over to my boyfriend's voice who repeated the word "Fire" over and over again, some Duskers quickly got up and started to leave, (since they remembered what happened last time) while some Duskers just sat there and asked "Really, again?" Dracula cursed underneath his breath as he stared at the Duskers who were trying to leave, and at the moment that's when his eyes changed color to a dark red and his fingernails grew long, as he shouted in Latin and in a deep demonic voice. "Filios, Impetum!" At his command, I watched in horror as all of his members eye color's changed to their yellow vampire eyes, their fangs came out and they jumped off of the stage and into the crowd, which sent them all screaming, I shot up and took out a stake I had hiding behind my back, as a girl vampire jumped in front of me, hissing at me while showing off her bloody fangs, I hissed back at her before using my vampire speed to stab her in the chest, she went down into ashes quickly and I heard someone let out a scream I turned just in time to see a female vampire biting on other girl, I acted quickly and threw the stake at the vamp's back and it hit it's target, the vampire went down in ashes as the girl held onto her bloody neck. Before she went down, I hope that was 'cause of the blood lost.
I turned my attention over to Ethan, to see how he was doing, and he was doing pretty awesome, fighting off three vampires at the same time using his fledgling strength and speed against them, I just hoped that the others were doing a good job too.
- Amanda & Luke -
A vampire hissed at Amanda, but then was smacked in the face with a sun-saber, the vampire hissed in pain as his skin healed from the burn, Amanda managed to keep a few vampires at bay with her sun-saber and throwing popcorn at them, while her brother struggled shot a few with his water-blaster. "Well this is sure fun!" Luke shouted over the screams of the Duskers, Amanda nodded in agreement, swinging her sun-saber and hitting another vampire in the stomach with it. And then Luke shot holy water at the vampire, finally taking the vamp down.
"Yeah, it sure is fun!" she agreed, swinging her sun-saber, and of course Della had taken it upon her face to hide behind the counter, since she was scared out of her mind and had no idea what was going on. So they were having to make sure that no vamps tried to harm her behind that counter. The two continued to fight off the vampires from left and right, while Della watched from behind the counter. She accidentally let out a scream when one vampire sucker punched Luke in the stomach and Amanda pulled out one of the garlic bombs stuck it into the vampire's neck.
And because of her letting out a scream, one of the vampires noticed her hiding behind counter, he hissed and jumped over the side of the counter landing on his knees, Della turned and screamed when she saw him, she fell on her butt and started to crawl backwards until she hit the wall, the vampire grinned wickedly and made his way towards her, she screamed again and started to throw popcorn that was laying on the ground, but it did nothing to the vampire, he smiled, showing off his bloody teeth/fangs and some of the blood dripped from his mouth down his chin. Della tried to find something to hold the vampire off, but found nothing, she tried to kick at the vampire but he held down her legs and moved in even closer. Della whimpered and let a few tears roll down her cheeks as the vampire leaned into her face and sniffed her, his grin widen as he licked her neck and he let out a small growl before sticking his face in her neck, getting ready to bite down when, "Hey! Leave the girl alone!" a voice shouted, and in a snap Della felt the vampire being yanked off of her, she looked up to see Luke dragging the vampire over the counter.
"You don't touch or bite girls like that," Luke tells the guy, before punching him hard in the stomach and then he shot some of the holy water into the vampire's face making him let out a yell of pain as his face burned from the holy water, Amanda took over in destroying the vampire while Luke turned to look at Della. "You alright?"
She nodded her head, slightly out of breath. "Yeah, you, you saved me!" Luke shrugged his shoulders, Della grinned and suddenly grabbed Luke by his shirt and planted her lips on his, Amanda finished off with the last vampire before turning around and seeing her brother kissing Della.
"Luke, Luke! Bro come on, we gotta take care of some other business!" Amanda tapped on his shoulder, few seconds later Della let him go, as he took deep breaths in, "Keep that water blaster, shoot anything with bloody fangs!" she shouted to the blonde as she pulled her brother along with her.
- Back Inside The Theater -
I grunted as I fought off a vampire on top of me, who snarling and trying to bite me, blood dripped from her chin as she snapped her jaws and tried to claw me with her long inhuman fingernails, I punched her in her side with my vampire strength but that didn't eve seem to work, actually all I think it did was piss her off even more. She snarled at me once again (see this is what happens when you turn your attention to see how your boyfriend's ding and you end up getting attacked by a tranced vampire.)
Somehow she began to overpower me, and tried to get closer to my neck, I managed to keep her from doing so by pushing away her face with my hand, she hissed against my hand, letting blood drip from her mouth and it went onto my hand. Ugh talk about major gross moment. I continued to struggle with her until I gained some strength and pushed her head up as far as I could and in the same moment, I watched as an arrow came out of nowhere and hit the vampire right in the side of her head, the arrow went straight through, killing her on the spot, I threw her dead body off of mine just as she turned into ash.
I used the seats to help myself stand up, and I looked around, until my eyes landed at the projection booth, where Gabe and Brandon were at, and sure enough I saw my brother at his crossbow, he smiled and gave me a thumbs up. I gave him a thumbs up back, shaking my head smiling.
Meanwhile, Erica was pinned by her throat against the wall and also by a much bigger/slightly stronger vampire, she turned her back for a second to kill off another vampire, and this one ambushes her from out of nowhere, knocking her weapon out of her hand, so she was weaponless against this vampire. And she had lost Rory somewhere in the crowd, so she hoped that he was doing better then her right now. She tried to pull his arm away from her throat but, he was stronger then her at the moment, Ugh damn it, that's what I get for not drinking blood earlier today! she thought, thank God, she didn't need to breath or else she'd be passed out on the ground right now.
"You know you're such a pretty thing, it's such a shame I have to kill you, Dracula'd love to have you on his side and I'd love to nail you in some other ways," he said, showing off his long and bloody fangs. (geez did every vampire bit someone before they picked a fight with 'em?)
"You've no chance there, bud, I'm taken. And I'd never be with someone like you," Erica rasped, gripping on his forearm tightly, he pressed harder on her neck and leaned his head. Erica moved her head around and again tried to push him off of her, still to no use.
Just then, there was a loud yell from behind the vampire and suddenly someone jumped onto the guy's back, knocking him away from Erica, who rubbed her throat and picked up the stake that had been knocked out of her hand earlier, as she heard her boyfriend's voice shout out, "Don't you touch my girlfriend! You asshole!" she looked over to see her boyfriend holding onto the vamp by his neck, who was trying to throw him off, but her boyfriend was hanging on with all of his strength.
"Hey, ass-face," she said, making him look up, "It looks like I'm the who's gonna be nailing you," she finished before throwing the stake at his chest. Rory did a back flip off of him just as the stake hit the vamp in the chest and he went down into ash.
"Nice, comment, babe." he smiled, she giggled and blushed.
And meanwhile with Ethan, Ethan had just finished stabbing a vampire with his dagger, when Jeremy flashed up in front of him, Ethan jerked towards him, holding his dagger in front of the tranced vampire. Who stared at it, with a raised eyebrow.
"Jeremy, listen to me, you're in a trance, you need to fight off whatever Dracula's putting into your head," Ethan told him.
Jeremy laughed, "Fight off what? I'm in no trance, and Dracula isn't putting nothing into my head, this is all on my own. I mean don't you want to live in the open? Without fear of being killed 'cause your different, don't you want the Council's annoying rules out of your way? With Dracula, we can do all of those things. Just think Ethan, with the vampy council gone. You wouldn't have to worry about the Council trying to break you and Benny up."
"As nice as that'd be. With Dracula ruling, in a few years all of the humans will be gone we'll all die of hunger, and I know that you guys don't want that."
"No, we don't, but Dracula will come up with something to keep that from happening, so Ethan, either you're against us or you're with us, which is it?"
Ethan tilted his head to the side with a confused look on his face, wasn't the answer already clear? He just killed like ten vampires and all of his friends were killing them too. Either Jeremy just didn't notice or he was stupid. "No, I'm against you."
"Well, then I'm gonna have to kill you Ethan," he stated, letting his fangs drop. "Such a shame though, you'd have been perfect to Dracula's cause."
Jeremy went to attack Ethan, who braced himself, ready to fight back when a huge pink beam came out of nowhere and hit Jeremy in the chest, the force of the pink beam was so strong it knocked Jeremy unconscious and made him fly a few feet away and landed right on his back. Ethan looked around him to see who did that.
That's when he saw Amanda and Luke standing by the entryway of the theater, still holding out their arms as the pink glow on the hands faded away, Ethan looked at them for a second and nodded his head. Amanda nodded her head back at him. With that, Ethan took off towards the stage.
Dracula watched as all of his vampires began to fall more and more against the group of teens, everything he had worked so hard for, falling so quickly before his eyes. Just like the two times before, except the last time he had stayed behind and ended up getting imprisonment for it. This time, he wasn't sticking around for that to happen again. "Come on, Chloe, we're leaving." He announced, grabbing onto her arm and dragging her to the back exit. As he was dragging her to the back exit, Chloe heard her name being yelled from behind her, she snapped her head towards the voices, and saw her brother and his girlfriend fighting their way towards her, she stared at them as they continued to shout her name, the shouting of her name echoed in her mind as her eyes flickered from dark red to her normal eye color. Chloe shook her head and looked at Dracula. "Hey let go of my arm!"
"Oh, I should've known you'd break out of the trance easier than the others, should've put a stronger one on you," Dracula grumbled to himself, "but no matter, you're still coming with me." he said pulling on her twice as hard. I had finished staking a vampire in the chest, when I heard Chloe's voice yelling at Dracula to let go of her, and then calling out for Rory and Erica, to come and save her, from Dracula, I turned just in time to see Dracula dragging her behind the screen where the second back exit was at. Which led up to the roof of the movie theater. Oh damn it, he's bringing her up to the roof for a reason. And of course, I knew what that reason was. So, I made a run for it, I ran (and jumping over seats too) through the still-half-ass crowded theater (with screaming fans) and made it to the back, only to see Chloe being pulled out the exit door. I made my move to break for the door when a blurred figure zoomed in front of me, blocking me from going for the exit. Suddenly I was pushed against the wall at a fast rate of speed, I whined as my head at the wall and an arm was pinned against my throat to hold me there, as I opened my eyes and came face-to-face with Sarah.
"Damn, Bens. Why're you always such a party pooper?" Sarah hissed through her fangs, staring down at me. "Even now as a full vampire, you're still ruining everything!"
"I'm a party pooper, 'cause you and the others are tranced and Dracula isn't the good guy here, Sare, he's the bad guy, he's going to destroy the world if we don't stop him." I told her, she pressed her arm harder on my throat.
"No, Benny, you're so wrong there. He's not going to destroy the world, actually he's basically going to save it from those son of bitches at the vampire council."
"He isn't, he's going to destroy the world, just like he wanted to do all of those years ago and you know that deep down inside of you."
"Just shut up! He doesn't want to do that, he saved me and the others from the brainwashing of the Council. Although I wish he could save you and the others, but I'm afraid it's too late to save you guys from it, so I'm gonna have to kill you."
I moved my hand to the front of me and balled it up. "Well, I'm not afraid that it's not too late to save you, Sarah. I'm sorry for what I'm about to do." I apologized, Sarah looked at me in confusion. Without another thought, I punched her hard in the stomach, she stumbled back some, taking her arm away from my throat to hold her stomach. She recovered quickly and went to punch me, I grabbed onto her arm and twisted it around her back.
"You've gotten better at this," she stated, I didn't answer as I threw her as hard as I could through the air, she did a few twist in the air before doing a sorta Black-Widow/Natasha landing on the ground. Sarah flipped her hair out of her face and hissed lowly at me. "But not that better." She stood up and charged at me, and began to throw punches at me. I blocked them all with my arms and managed to land a punch to her side with my super-strength (and I think I broke a few of her ribs with that punch) while I punched her in the side, Sarah saw her chance and punched me in the face, that jerked me back some. I rubbed my face as I locked eyes with Sarah who was grinning, holding onto her side.
And of course I took this as my chance, I rushed towards her (using some of my vamp speed) and pinned her onto the ground with my hand wrapped around her throat to keep her there, Sarah tried to claw at my hand, to get it off of her throat, but I just held on tighter. She moved underneath my grip, I rubbed her forehead as I looked down at her. "I'm sorry Sarah, but this is going to hurt you a lot more then it's going to hurt me." With that I picked Sarah's head by her throat and slammed it into the ground. Sarah lost unconsciousness after her head was slammed into the ground, I looked over her head to make sure nothing was bleeding, before letting go of her throat, note: Hard knocks to the head always knocks people out of strong trances. I sighed and stood up, I took Sarah's arms and pulled her towards the exit. "It was for the best, you know?"
Erica grunted as she was slammed against the wall, by Jenny who had jumped her and Rory and had almost easily taken out her boyfriend, so now she was trying to deal with her and well Erica wasn't making it easy. But she was slowly losing the fight against Jen.
"Stop fighting, Erica. It isn't going to make a difference! I'm still going to beat you," Jenny teased, twisting Erica's arm behind her back, Erica yelped in pain as she twisted her arm as hard as she could.
"It might make a difference! I know you're still there underneath that strong trance, Dracula's put you under and you've to fight it!" Erica gritted out, Jenny bent her arm even more and she gasped in slight pain.
"No, this isn't a trance, Erica, darling. No, this is the real me, the real me that does and takes what she wants!"
"It isn't! Maybe the part about doing what you want and taking what you want. But all of the other things isn't you!"
Jenny rolled her eyes instead of replying, twisting Erica's arm almost to the point of breaking it. And she'd have broken her arm if, Erica hadn't thought about those self-defense classes her and Amanda took the summer before they started high school. She thought quickly and slammed her foot down hard onto Jenny's foot, she owed loudly, and that's when Erica threw her head back and it connected with Jenny's head, she stumbled back some. Erica held onto her arm as (whatever damage Jenny did to it) healed, and she took a look at Jenny, who stared at her, her eyes glowing yellow with anger.
Erica whined, as she thought about what she was going do to knock her out of the trance. "Sorry, Jen, this is going to hurt a lot." she tells her, Jenny raised her eyebrows, just as Erica lifted up her left leg and whack! Hit Jenny hard on the side of the head with her leg. She watched as Jenny held onto the side of her head, clearly in some pain from the hit. Words in her head echoed, as her eyes flickered from blue to dark red. For a second before she fully broke out of the trance. "Erica? What's going on?! Why am I in the theater?! And why does my head hurt?" she asks, holding onto her head.
"Well, it's a long story, all I've to say is that, Dracua's really Dracula, he tranced you and the others and he's taken your sister up to the roof and now we gotta get there before something bad happens to her!" Erica answered, going over to her boyfriend and picking him up.
She let out what sounded like a snarl as she tightened her hands into fists. "He's taken my sister?! Okay, maker of us or not. He's gonna get his ass kicked! C'mon." Erica while holding onto her boyfriend followed behind Jenny as they went towards the back of the theater.
I had quickly set Sarah against the wall outside next to the stairs leading up to the roof, just as Ethan came around the corner with Amanda and Luke right behind him dragging an unconscious Jeremy with them, I moved out of the way to let them through the door. "Where're the others?" I asked my boyfriend, who shrugged his shoulders looking behind him.
"Don't know, Erica and Rory shouldn't be too far behind, Gabe and Brandon. I've no idea," Ethan replied, looking behind him. Great, by the time everyone gets back here. Dracula's probably gonna be gone by then! I thought to myself, while I sighed out, just then Jenny came walking around the corner, looking mad as hell. Oh crap, she's under the trance! I'm thinking she's going to attack. But instead she walks right past us and towards the door. And right behind her was Erica holding onto Rory, who was half-out of it.
"Short answer, she knocked him out and I knocked her out of the trance, she's pissed about her sister and the trance, I guess." she answers, walking passed us. Ethan looked at me, and I just looked back at him, before we both rushed over to the exit, Ethan was fumbling around with his jacket pocket and pulled out a lighter once we were safely at the exit door, I stared at him. Our brothers weren't here yet, but hopefully that meant they were somewhere out in front of the building, we were hoping that they were. Ethan opened the lighter and flicked it on and was just about to throw it... when.
"Wait!" Brandon's voice shouted, our heads turned towards his voice to see him and Gabe running towards us. I moved out of the way as they ran through the exit door. "Were you serious going to start plan B with us still in the theater?" he asked, as Ethan looked up ceiling.
"Well, no, I wasn't going to start it, I knew that if I flicked this on and you actually heard it. You guys would run faster and look, you did." Ethan grinned, Brandon rolled his eyes and stuck his tongue out (him and Jane both do that). Ethan stared at the lighter then he threw it up into the air. We watched as the lighter barely hit the sprinkler system, and just like that holy water run through the pipes and flowed out through the sprinklers all in the theater. I grabbed the handle on the door to close it, as I did that. Drops of holy water fell onto my hand, burning it some, I hissed and slammed the door shut, as soon as I slammed the door shut, loud screams of pain sounded out from the rest of Dracula's little vampires.
Looks like we got rid of them. Now we just have to deal with Dracula.
Suddenly a scream came from the top of the roof, our heads snapped up there, before we realized that the scream came from; Chloe. "Chloe!" we all shouted running up the stairs.
Nobody's Point Of View
As soon as everyone ran up the stairs, they looked around on the roof for Dracula and Chloe, Jenny shouted her sister's name while her brother looked around nervously for their sister (after he had heard her scream and had knocked himself out of whatever state he was in), after a few seconds of looking around, Brandon spotted something towards the end of the roof, what looked like two figures. "Over there!" he shouted, pointing towards the two figures. Jenny and Rory looked to where he was pointing and saw what looked like their sister, trying to break free of Dracula's strong hold.
"Chloe!" they yelled, breaking away from the group and towards them. The others noticed this and took off after them except Benny and Gabe, who looked at each other before nodding their heads and taking off the other way on top of the building. As they ran up to Dracula and Chloe, Amanda and Ethan were the first ones to notice that something was off, Ethan held out his hand while Amanda whispered, "stop," and the others stopped in their tracks, just then. Dracula began to make weird noises as he threw his head back and he moved around as his hair started to fall out until he was bald and then his skin changed color to a dark grey, his ears became slightly pointed like a bat's and his sorta longish fingernails became very long pointy and very inhumanly. Their eyes widened, before wings shot out of Dracula's back ripping his shirt and jacket in the process. And then Dracula spun around to face them, Erica let out a small scream when they saw the true form of Dracula.
Dracula stood there, staring at them all angrily. Holding a shaking-scared Chloe, as Ethan, Brandon and the others took in his form, from his ears, to his nails, to his wings and to his face. Which was slightly in the form of a bat's face. He growled at them.
"Give it up, Dracula, you're out numbered here. Let Chloe go and give yourself up," Amanda told him, leaning on her brother since the blood in her body was burning through quickly. Dracula let out a deep demonic laugh.
"Never, it doesn't matter that I'm out numbered. I'm ten times stronger then you all are, my filios."
"We aren't your children and all together we're just as strong as you are." Ethan said, making him laugh again.
"Keep telling yourselves that, filios."
Jenny and Rory stepped up, glaring at him with their fangs out. "You let our sister go or else."
He raised an eyebrow at them. "Or else... what? You'll attack me? Go right ahead. I'll make you watch her turn and then I'll destroy you." Jenny let out a low snarl and went to walk towards him, when Dracula quickly brought Chloe up in front of him and held her head to the side, showing off her neck as he held her in place. "Uh-uh, I wouldn't do that if I were you. Unless you want your sister to become a blood-crazy vampire." She took in what he said and took a few steps back and Dracula smiled wickedly. "I can't believe you think that I wouldn't do this," with that he stuck his fangs into Chloe's neck. She let out a painful scream as Dracula ejected vemon into her system. Then drank her blood harshly. Loud angrily snarls came from Jenny and Rory, before they charged at him. Dracula acted quickly and threw Chloe a few feet away, but not before he clawed a deep gash into her right side, her head hit the ground, hard. Hard enough to knock her out of consciousness. Jenny reached Dracula first and tried to punch him, but he dodged the punch and grabbed Jenny by her throat and lifted her into the air, and then threw her into Rory, which knocked them both back a couple feet. Luke let out a growl and threw Amanda's arm off of his shoulder, before he charged at Dracula. "Luke, no!" she shouted. But her shout fell on deaf's ears as her brother tried to fight off Dracula, who just easily blocked all of his attack moves before he backhanded him, really hard making him fly through the air and hit the wall right next to a door that led somewhere back inside the building.
"Sordida Lupus!" he hissed in Latin, glaring at Luke, Amanda was growling lowly and her eyes were glowing neon blue, as she stared at Dracula, before hissing at him. Dracula turned to her and let out a low cackle as to how she looked. Amanda ran at him, yelling as she did so. She threw a punch at his head then ducked as he tried to throw one at her, she threw another punch at his head before slamming her fist against his side, Amanda owed as she pulled her hand away. Her hand nearly broke 'cause of Dracula's ribs were harder than a rock. He chuckled and backhanded her in the face, that made her stumble some, he walked towards her as Amanda backed up, she threw a right hook at him. Dracula threw a hard hit to her side, (it broke a few of her ribs, which weren't healing right 'cause she was weak) that made Amanda let out rasping noises, he smirked and kicked her in the abdomen and that final hit sent her to the ground. He stood over her as she held onto her stomach. "You're such a sorry excuse for a ibrida, you'll be happy when I kill you," Amanda tried to crawl backwards, as Dracula raised his hand was about to slash her, when a garlic bomb hit him in the back, he roared slightly as his skin burned from the garlic bomb, he reached around and torn it out from his back, he whipped around to see who threw it and saw Erica about ready to throw another one, when he held up his hand high while making a fist, Erica rose in the air and had her hands around her throat, than started to make choking sounds. As he walked towards her. "Goody-good vampires like you make me sick," he stopped in front of her tightening his fist, causing Erica to choke more. "Never using your powers and being a disgrace to the rest of us. After I take over, you'll all fall along with the humans."
"Let her go, Dracula!" Ethan shouted, Dracula turned his head to see Brandon and Ethan standing there, Brandon had a water blaster in his hands and Ethan had his dagger in his hand, they both had their fangs out and were glaring dangerously at him.
He chuckled at them. "And what're you two gonna do? Blast me with holy water? Try to stab me with a magical dagger? Just try it, it won't work."
Brandon and Ethan looked at each other, (they had nothing else to do, their boyfriends had disappeared to somewhere, they had a plan, both of them thought.) Ethan nodded, giving the go ahead for Brandon to pull the trigger. Brandon aimed it at him and went to pull the trigger while Ethan held out his dagger ready to attack, Dracula simply rolled his eyes and with a flick of his wrist, the water blaster flew out of Brandon's hands and the dagger flew out of Ethan's hand and landed a few feet away from him. Then he held his hand out and the boys felt themselves being forced onto their knees on the ground.
"You've to love these powers," Dracula grinned. "And after I kill you two, I'll kill all of your friends and your boyfriends. Save them for last, 'cause I want to see the look in their eyes I murder everyone they care about. And they can start watching now," with that he kept his left hand on Erica and walked closer to Ethan and Brandon and raised his hand. When an arrow flew from somewhere and went right through Dracula's right hand, he roared in pain, taking his hand away from Brandon and Ethan, they sighed out feeling Dracula's powers fade off of them. Just then another arrow shot through Dracula's left hand, making him roar again and let go of the choking hold he had on Erica. Who fell onto her knees, gasping, another arrow hit Dracula in the left side of his gut and he roared louder this time. And tried to yank the arrow out, only for him to burn his hand. He stared at it. "What kind of arrow is this?!" he asked loudly, before suddenly a figure fell from the sky and onto Dracula's back.
Ethan looked up to see Dracula trying to fight off the figure, but it was kinda hard to do when he had three arrows in his body. He looked a bit closer, to see that the figure was wearing a familiar brown striped jacket. And it only took Ethan a second to realize that the person attacking Dracula was Benny. And wherever Gabe was, he must've been the one to fire the arrows into Dracula to keep him from killing their boyfriends and Erica. Dracula continued to try to throw Benny off him, but Benny had the upper hand in the fight. Since he was on his back and Dracula couldn't move that much to throw him off. The others watched on as Benny threw his head back to reveal that he had his fangs out and his eyes were glowing their vampire color. They had no idea what his plan was, but they were about to find out.
Benny had thought of the words his Grandma had used earlier, by saying 'draining always weakens them'. It had taken him awhile to figure it out, but when he did, he realized the only way to weaken Dracula was by draining some of his blood from him. So that was his plan. He managed to get Dracula's head to the side to reveal his neck, where he opened his mouth wide before he sank his fangs into Dracula's neck. Dracula let out a scream as Benny started to suck his blood, trying to weaken him. The older vampire tried to grab at Benny once more and almost gotten a hold of him, if Gabe hadn't fired another arrow at him, which hit Dracula in the left shoulder, he snarled in pain/anger, as Benny continued to suck his blood, but not drinking it (he didn't know what it'd do to him) so it began to leak from Benny's mouth down onto Dracula's shoulder. It took a few minutes before, Dracula started to feel slightly lightheaded and was starting to not fight as much, until he started to fall limp, that's when Benny took his face away from his neck and threw him to the ground, he landed on the ground with a loud thump, and Benny went over to Amanda's duffle bag and pulled out the small vial she had packed, and walked over to Dracula. He bent down, holding the vial to his shoulder. Benny pinched the wound, making blood drip into the vial, until it was half full. He put the top back on and handed it off to Amanda who had limped her way over to the others. A hand wrapped around Benny's ankle, he looked over his shoulder to see Dracula slowly returning to his human form, looking at them all with weak eyes.
"You've no idea, what's to come, you've no idea of what evil's you'll face. You've no idea what you're going up against," he tells them in a quiet voice. "Be on the guard, they're closer than you think."
"Oh, shut up, Mr. Vampy-asshole-liar," Amanda snarled before kicking Dracula in the head, knocking him out completely. And getting looks from Ethan, Benny and Erica. She shrugged. "What? Someone needed to shut his ass up, and I got to be the lucky one."
Erica suddenly remembered that Rory and Jenny hadn't joined them and that Chloe had been. Oh no. "Chloe," she whispered walking over to where the girl had been thrown earlier. The others followed her and stopped right behind her to see her staring at her boyfriend and his sister who were holding Chloe as her body jerked, for some reason.
"We gotta get her to the hospital, something's seriously wrong, her body's jerking, her wounds aren't healing and I think she's not taking the vemon," Jenny stated worriedly, her brother nodded in agreement, before Chloe started to jerk faster then she was before.
"Get her, to the hospital, we'll handle Dracula, go now." Ethan commanded, they nodded their heads, Rory got a good hold on Chloe, before they took off into the air towards the hospital. He turned towards them. "And now we gotta get Dracula to the Vampire Council."
And as if on cue, Amanda groaned and nearly fell onto the ground if Gabe hadn't zoomed out of hiding and caught her before she fell. "I think you and Benny should take her and Luke back to the house, so Grandma can heal him and get Amanda all fixed up with the blood."
"But what about Dracula?"
"We can handle him, bro. You need to get Amanda back to the house and now," Brandon told his brother, Ethan looked at Dracula and than at Amanda, and sighed out, nodding his head.
"Give her to me, Benny and I'll get her there," he said, taking Amanda's arm and wrapping it around his shoulder as Benny went over to Luke and helped him up. "And you guys make sure he gets to the Council, so his ass can get fried again by them, got it?"
They nodded their heads and with that, Benny and Ethan led them both down the stairs and towards Benny's car, so they could get back to Ethan's house. Gabe, Brandon and Erica turned around and walked towards Dracula and started to move him carefully ('cause of the arrows in his body) while Erica stared off where her boyfriend and his sister had flew away with their baby sister in their arms towards the hospital. And all that was on her mind; was that she hoped Chloe'd be okay. (and the same for her friend as well).
- At Ethan's House -
Evelyn paced back and forth in the living room, as Jane kept her focus on watching Dusk I (again) and Erica's brothers slept soundly on the couch, (and her great-grandchildren slept soundly upstairs in their beds as well, letting out soft coos and grunts through the baby monitor every now and then). And while they were all fine, she was worried about her grandsons, their boyfriends and their friends. She knew they'd be fine, but she just couldn't stop the worry feeling washing over her. "They should've been here by now," she muttered, looking at the clock. She continued to pace, until the front door flew open and Ethan came in supporting Amanda on his shoulder (who was starting to look pale again) and Benny followed in supporting Luke. "We got the blood, hurry mix it together, she's getting weaker by the minutes," Ethan said, as Amanda weakly handed her the vial of blood before being led over to the armchair, Evelyn quickly got to work on mixing the bloods together while Benny sat Luke on the couch next to Erica's brothers.
"Lift up her jacket sleeve," she instructed, Ethan did as he was told and rolled up her sleeve. "Alright, try to get her vein in her arm to appear." Again, Ethan did as he was told.
"Aright, done."
"Okay, Ethan I need you to inject all of the blood in the needle into Amanda's vein."
Ethan took the needle from her with the blood mixed in side (which was glowing bright red) and stared at it for a second before he positioned the needle at her vein and pushed it into the vein, Amanda whined slightly at feeling the needle going into her vein, Ethan pushed the end of the needle and watched as the blood disappeared from the needle and into his friend's vein. After he finished with the needle, Amanda took a quick look at her arm before her head fell back and her eyes closed.
"What happened? Is she alright?" Benny asked, Evelyn nodded with a smile on her face.
"She's fine, her body's putting her to sleep while the blood of elders starts to work its magic," she replied as she looked at the girl before turning her attention to Ethan and Benny. "Now, what happened? Where's Gabe, the others and Dracula?"
"We managed to stop his little gang of vampires, we almost didn't take down Dracula if Gabe hadn't brought along his hunter gear and you hadn't told me that little riddle, Amanda and Luke got a little banged up in the process. But we didn't make it in time to stop him from biting Chloe," Benny answered.
Evelyn stared at them eyes wide, "Is she going to be alright? Did she turn?"
"We don't know, her body was like rejecting the vemon, she was jerking and her wounds weren't healing like they should've been, but Jenny and Rory took her to the hospital, so we should be hearing something soon, from them or Amanda's Mom since she's a nurse."
"And Dracula's probably being brought into the Council as we speak, by Erica, Brandon and Gabe. And then they're probably coming home and Erica's probably gonna go to the hospital." Ethan added.
"Good; on the stopping Dracula part, but bad and weird; that Chloe was bitten and is reacting to the vemon the way she is. It's weird, it should've turned her unless he did get enough vemon into her body or she's rejecting it somehow, which never happens, it could be something else though. I'm just not sure what."
Benny crossed his arms. "So what do we do about her? Watch over here and see if she turns into a vampire or not?"
"Why not?" Ethan piped up. "It sounds like a good idea, keep an eye on her just in case."
"I agree, we don't know how Dracula's vemon is different than the others' for all we know this is the reaction to being turned by his vemon," Evelyn agreed, "just for the next few days, if nothing happens then I'll have to run tests to see what's going on, until that time. We'll watch her." They nodded their heads and turned their eyes onto Amanda who was still in process of changing to a full blooded hybrid. They were going to have a rough couple days on their hands with all of this going on.
- The Next Day, Whitechapel Memorial Hospital -
After not hearing anything for a couple hours, Rory called them to say that Chloe had to have surgery on the huge gash in her side, she had a lot of stitches (about thirty or forty of them) just to close the gash, which in Rory's words it still looked completely horrible. And he had also told them to come down and check her out, he warned them to be very careful, 'cause Amanda's Mom was on duty and his parents were both in and out of her room every ten minutes, but they had gone home to change their clothes so this was the time to go check on her. And so this is where Ethan found himself with a still (slightly weak) Amanda who had awoken a few hours earlier. Ethan and Amanda exited out of the elevator and walked towards Chloe's room where was near the nurse's station and a small waiting area in the middle (which was completely dead), they were about to walk pass the nurse's station when one of the nurses turned around and they dropped to the ground on their hands and knees, the nurse -aka- Hannah (Amanda's Mom) had a clipboard in her hands and was looking at the records, closely. She put the clipboard under her arm and was about ready to walk around the corner of the nurse's station, when. "Hey, Hannah! Can you help me out with these test results?!" One of nurses in the back called out.
Hannah sighed and put the clipboard down. "Sure, Lila," she called back, heading towards the back. Amanda and Ethan breathed out as soon as she was out of hearing range, Ethan looked at Amanda before crawling his way towards Chloe's room with Amanda right behind him.
Ethan quietly opened the door and crawled inside the room, he pressed his back against the wall and waited for Amanda, who did like some ninja flip into the room, making loud noises as she did so. Ethan rolled his eyes and gave her a look. Amanda shrugged and leaned over to close the door, but she accidently pushed the door hard and before she could catch it, it slammed shut. And it made a loud sound, which Ethan slap his face and shake his head. Amanda looked at him and gave a weak smile. "Oops?"
He shook his head and stood up from the floor, he walked over to Chloe's bed, while Amanda stood in front of the bed and looked at the clipboard. "It says the wounds were caused from an animal attack, my Mom ruled it, most likely a bear attack," she read.
"Well that's good as long as it keeps everyone off our backs," Ethan said, moving the blanket off of Chloe and moved her nightgown up some to reveal a huge bandage covering most of her side (there was some blood trying to show through the bandage as well). He looked at Amanda who was now standing by him, she nodded towards him to do it, Ethan took a deep breath and pulled back the bandages. Only to reveal nasty red (slightly bloody) stitches, and the wound wasn't healed.
"Ugh, well. That's nasty, just like a few hours ago, still not healing," Amanda stated.
"Yeah, it's still not right though," Ethan pointed out. He didn't tell Amanda about the theory of Dracula's vemon being different then theirs, but something in his gut was just telling him that the theory wasn't right and that something else was going on.
They stood there for a few minutes in silence, before Amanda spoke up. "If the vemon didn't take, E... then, what the hell is she?"
Ethan breathed out, "I honestly don't know Amanda, I just don't know."
- Later, In The Meadows -
Later that day, found Benny and Ethan laying out in the meadows after a very stressful day at Whitechapel High with all of the news reporters outside questioning everyone about the weird-strange attacks at the fan-screening, but Principal Hicks and Vice Principal Fitzgerald covered it as just some very crazy fans taking the whole Dusker thing seriously and attacking some of their fellow Duskers and also told the news reporters that they were going to get to the bottom of whoever were behind the attacks. And of course they got asked a lot of questions before the vice principal had to step in and get them into school safely. So yeah it had been a stressful day.
But during this stressful day, Ethan had been thinking more about something that's been on his mind a lot lately, and well he had an answer for the question someone had asked him a few weeks ago. Ethan sat up and looked down at Benny, who opened his eyes and looked at him.
"What's up, E-baby?" he asked leaning up on his elbows.
Ethan sighed, "I've been thinking a lot today," he starts off, "about you know. The question you asked me a few weeks ago," Benny perked up at hearing this and sat up to look at his boyfriend. "And I've made up my mind about it.." Benny took a deep breath and looked into his boyfriend's dark brown eyes. "Go ahead, baby say it," he told his boyfriend. Ethan smiled at him.
"My answer is..." he trailed off, (making like that moment from a season or movie at the end and you've to wait for the next movie/season to find out what happens next). Benny continued to stare at his boyfriend before he opened his mouth. "Yes."
Benny's mouth dropped and his eyes widened. Did he just say... Yes? Or were his hearing playing tricks on him? He sure as hell hoped that he did say yes. "Did you... you just say yes? Did you say yes? Or is my hearing playing tricks on me? Or are you pranking me right now?"
"Benny, I did say yes," Ethan chuckled. "So no, your hearing isn't playing a trick on you nor am I pranking you, I said 'Yes' Benny to your question. Yes I'll become your husband in the future."
No words could say how happy Benny was right now, but an action could show Ethan. So he stood up and pulled Ethan up from the ground, he placed his hands on both sides of Ethan's face and pulled him in for a kiss, Ethan groaned into the kiss, wrapping his arms around Benny's waist pulling him closer (if it was even possible) Benny bit on his lip before licking it asking for entrance. Which Ethan gave him, they French kissed for a few minutes before pulling away and resting their foreheads against each others.
"I love you, Ethan Morgan," Benny whispered.
"I love you too, Benny Weir," Ethan whispered back with a smile on his face, before reconnecting their lips together. Nothing was going to get in their way now, nothing supernatural or just normal old drama, because they weren't going to let it.
- At The Council -
Anastasia walked down hall of empty cells, with two guards right behind her as they walked towards their number one prisoner who was being held in their biggest and toughest cell in their Council building. She smirked as they arrived at the cell where Dracula laid, chained to the wall with special chains laced with a very powerful potion made for weakening the oldest and powerful vampires, and due to that potion, his wounds from the arrows and the bite mark from Benny hadn't healed. He opened his eyes and weakly looked at the girl who smiled widely showing her fangs. "Hello Dracula, I hope you're comfortable in this nice cell. 'Cause where you're going, it won't be as nice."
"You never changed, Annie," he chuckled, before turning serious. "Are you ever going to tell them about the others before them? Ever going to tell them about the fate that's going to await them?"
She growled lowly at her nickname, but then straighten up and glared at him. "No, 'cause they're gone. Dracula, they've nothing to worry about except for all of the other rouge supernatural's in this town."
He laughed weakly. "Sure, Annie, keep allowing yourself to believe that lie, but they aren't gone, no, they're back and right underneath your nose. Add in the fact that they're all more powerful then their past-selves and that two of them are somehow family to them. It's only a matter of time before they claim their rightful status as Protectors of Whitechapel, they'll kill them and take their powers like they tried do to that last group."
"Just shut up, Jesse destroyed most of their members years ago before he took over. And the rest were left powerless and took off in hiding, and died of old age."
"Or as you were led to believe, Annie. They'll do the same thing to them as they did to the last group, but this time it won't fail. 'Cause they're different then they were. You can't keep the same thing from happening to them by keeping the secrets, you'll have to tell them." Anastasia looked at the two guards before nodding her head, they nodded and began to walk away. She looked at Dracula one last time, "I'll never have to, because they're all dead. What happened to those kids was done by hunters so get over it and stop trying to say they're alive." And with that she began to walk away.
"Be in denial all you want to be, Anastasia. But we both know that I'm right! I see it all remember?! But fine! Don't believe me, and don't come crying to me when the town's being taken over and all of your little supernatural pets are dead. 'Cause I won't help you!" Dracula shouted, before crackling some as she looked down the hall and then told the guards to close the door. She took in what, Dracula had said and shook her head in denial. No, they were all dead by now, and their bloodlines shouldn't have gained their powers, since Jesse drained them so long ago. No, they couldn't have done those kidnappings of that group not that many years ago, no what happened to them was just looked rather close to what they did in the past. It was done by hunters as they were told.
But, no there was no need to tell this group of teenagers about it. Since the hunters (that they were told who did it) were long gone, since they were the ones to take care of them. So there was also no need to worry about it happening again, because this group can take care of themselves, unlike the others. And as long as she kept quiet (and kept Dracula quiet as well) nothing bad would happen to them, right? With one final sigh, she walked away from the cell part of the Council and towards her office.
As long as this was all kept a secret, they wouldn't end up dead like all of the others before them.

THE LONGEST CHAPTER, I HAVE WRITTEN SO FAR GUYS! *clears throat* So, that was the first episode of the new season. Kinda long and boring wasn't it? Well to me it seemed like it, since the first episode's always used to be the start up to the other episodes that're to come. Now if some parts sucked, I'm sorry for that, I promise that it'll get better in the later episodes! - And now, how do you think Amanda's gonna deal with being a full blooded hybrid, the hybrid council's offer and her brother at the same time? What about Gabe, will he bring up some more of his hunter past or not, now that he's using his old hunting weapons? What about Chloe?! What's going on with her? And what about Benny and Ethan?! Will they tell anyone, or keep it a secret? And what're the secrets Anastasia's keeping from the gang? You'll find out soon! Oh yes, Dracula's command and saying of "Children" in Latin came from Google Translate, so I hope that they are right.
This chapter would've been up sooner, if hadn't been for getting stuck on some parts, changing the writing style, the Fanfiction glitch and bad weather plus lightning making the power go out from 4 a.m. to 2 p.m. But other then that, it's all good. And I've been thinking, and I'm gonna change the title of the next episode. To "Gabe Hunted" for some reasons. And soon as I publish this, I'm gonna work on You Hurt Me's sequel, and I have one question to as you guys, do you want me to write with my old writing style or this one? Oh, what do you think Chloe is? Is she a vampire or something else supernatural? If you've a guess, don't be shy! Leave it in the review! And if you want to (use the word hashtag with the answer!). Whoever gets the answer right, will get a shout out in the episode when Chloe's powers will be revealed!
And I threw in as much Bethan as I could! I hope it was enough to give you guys Bethan feels. And oh before I forget, what do you think about the three new characters I added in? Casen, Ms. Fitzgerald and Miss Henderson? I wouldn't trust them just yet. For all you know they're the bad guys! They very well could be.
I hope this chapter/episode was good for you guys, I worked very hard on it. So... I have nothing else to say, but I hope you guys stay tune for the next episode, 'cause I've a very good plan/plot for it!
Read, Review, Follow, Favorite, do whatever. :)
So guys, until the next update/publish story...
~Bethan Forever
