After the Lucifractor Ch. 1
Sarah, Ethan, Benny, and Jesse run out of the room through the hallways and run out of the church. As they are heading towards the gate, Jesse and Sarah collapse, face flat. Ethan and Benny stop and Ethan runs over to Sarah and turns her over. "Sarah say something." He puts his hand on her cheek he has tears in his eyes. "Sarah please."
Jesse lying next to Sarah begins to moan. Benny and Ethan jump back and Jesse begins to cough. He tries to lift himself up but collapses back onto the floor.
"We need to get them some help." Benny says
"We can't just leave Sarah here." Ethan replies
"I'll call my grandma." Benny says as he takes out his cell phone. "No signal"
Ethan grabs Sarah and pulls her over.
"Where do you think you're going?" Benny asks him
"I'm trying to get her to the car."
"Goodluck with that."
"You know you could help."
Benny runs over and helps him drag Sarah to their car. They put her in the back seat. Ethan runs back towards the church. "What now?" Benny asks annoyed.
"We can't just leave Jesse there."
"Yes we can. May I remind you.." Benny states calmly and then screams "that he bit you!"
"Benny, he did try and help us and maybe if we can cure him he can help us I don't know, get the Lucifractor back!"
"Okay fine." Benny says and they run to get Jesse's body. They pick him up and drag him to the car. "Now where we gonna put him?" Benny asks.
"I got an idea." Ethan replies and opens the trunk. "It'll be a tight fit but I think we can squeeze him in."
Benny drags over Jessie and Ethan helps get him into the trunk. Ethan slams the trunk shut which with Jesse replies with hard groan. "That's what you get for biting me." Ethan says. Benny sits in the passenger seat and Ethan sits in the driver's seat. He starts the car but Benny interrupts him. "You know you don't have your license."
"I've driven with Sarah before."
"Yeah but from memory you crashed the car!"
"That wasn't my fault the car was possessed. Anyways I'm driving."
"Good lord have mercy on our souls." Benny murmurs under his breath.
Ethan slams on the gas and they go flying when they get to Ethan's house Ethan tries to pull over but crashes into the big oak tree. The air bags deploy and smoke comes flying through the glass. The boys start coughing. Ethan gets out and opens the back door. "Sarah's okay!"
"Are you okay Benny, sure I'm fine thanks for asking." Benny replies sarcastically.
"Help me get Sarah into the house." Ethan says.
Benny runs around to help but when he goes to help pick her up they hear faint banging noise. It was coming from the trunk. They open the trunk and Jesse asks faintly "What happened." He was weak but awake.
"Jesse we'll explain everything but first we need to get you into the house." They drag Sarah into the house luckily Ethan's parents wouldn't be back till tomorrow. They drop her next to the stairs and Jane comes running in.
"What happened?" There were tears in her eyes.
"We have a lot to explain but first we need to get Jesse out of the trunk." Ethan says.
"Jesse what is he doing here?!" Jane replies.
"I said we have a lot to explain."
After getting Jesse in, Benny and Ethan put him down on a chair and lie Sarah down on the couch. Benny's grandma brings in some blood substitute for Jesse who drinks it without any complaints.
"Grandma you are looking better." Benny said half serious half joking.
"Yes I'm fine, but that note drained a lot out of me, I won't be doing much magic for a while." she replies
Ethan starts to explain. "The lucifractor has been unleashed by Sterns. Jesse and Sarah collapsed along with lord knows how many other vampires."
Jesse starts coughing. "We need to get the lucifractor back."
"That's obvious Fangy." Benny says.
Jesse tries to hiss at him but his fangs aren't coming out. "What's happening?"
"The lucifractor still has power over you Jesse. You won't have any of your special abilities till it is destroyed." Benny's grandmother replied. "You should get some sleep." Then she turned to Benny, Ethan, and Jane. "You guys need to get some sleep. Ethan I'll see when your parents are returning. We need time to figure out what we're going to do with these two."
The next morning
Ethan got dressed and ran down stairs to find Sarah still lying on the couch and Jesse still in his chair. He walked over and sat down next to Sarah. "I don't know if you can hear me, but if you can I want you to know that I really care about you and I'm sorry for all that has happened. I'm sorry I messed up our date, I'm sorry I said it was horrible. I just needed you to know that."
"That is so touching." Jesse said sarcastically behind him.
"What do you want? You're the reason that our date was messed up." Ethan said angrily.
"Relax tough guy. You'll have your chance with Sarah later. Right now, we need to figure out a plan to get the lucifractor."
"I'm working on it, but I have to get to school."
"The sad life of a mortal." Jessie said.
Ethan ignores his comment and walks into the kitchen, Jane, Benny, and Benny's grandma were sitting at the table eating pancakes. "Sit down and eat honey, you need energy for the day you are going to have."
The morning was pretty casual until lunch. The cafeteria was half empty.
"Does this mean half of our classmates were vampires?" Benny asked nervously.
A girl with dark brown hair, pale skin, and brown eyes walks into the room and bumps into Ethan. In the vision she hisses and shows fangs. "Sorry." she says sweetly "My name is Faith. I'm a new student." She holds out her hand and Ethan grabs it and shakes. "Hello." He said cautiously, "I'm Ethan and this is Benny."
The girl freezes for a second, she looks shocked, she whispers something under her breath. Then she snaps back in and smiles "It's great to meet you."
The boys would've said something but the loud speaker goes on
attention students, there will be a meeting in the auditorium after lunch, where you will meet your new Vice Principal, since Vice Principal Sterns has resigned. All students are to report to the auditorium immediately after lunch. That is all.
The boys freeze at this but Faith is oblivious to this and says, "I guess I'll be seeing you around." She walks away to get some lunch.
"How are we going to find Sterns now?" Benny says.
"My guess is that he's still at the church but we have another problem. That new girl."
"You mean faith she is gorgeous." Benny says.
"Not that." Ethan said "I had a vision and she's vampire."
"Dude all the vampires are unconscious your just seeing things."
"Benny I know what I saw." Ethan said.
"Whatever right now we need to get some food I'm starving." With that the boys go and get there food.
After lunch the boys head to the auditorium but something grabs them and pulls them back to the cafeteria when the boys look up they notice its Faith.
"Listen we need to talk" She said her voice got deep and possessive.
"You're a vampire." Ethan said.
"You act like you've never seen one before." She said her voice got softer and more playful. "Listen I know you know about the lucifractor I know that you are a seer Ethan, and Benny I heard is a wizard."
"How do you know so much about us?" Ethan asked.
"My brother told me all about you."
"Who's your brother?" Benny asked nervously
"Jesse"
