Hey, guys. fanfiction9821 here with the first story of a trilogy that will give you nightmares. This month is October and the trilogy is known as the Halloween Frights trilogy. This first story is Night of the Vampire. The events that happen in this story are purely fictional and will not happen to anyone, unless you live in Transylvania. Anyway, enough talking. Let's get to the story. Roll the film!


"Are you sure this is safe, Aunt Rouge," Josh asked as he, Shade, Manik, Sonia, Lara, and Rouge walked through the dark caverns they were currently in.

"Of course it's safe. I wouldn't be bringing you along if it wasn't," Rouge responded.

"That makes me feel a whole lot better."

"Why are you even here? If you feel creeped out, then be gone," Shade said.

"Quiet, hybrid. You ain't the boss of me," Josh said.

"Cut it out, you two. We're not here to fight. We're here to... Why are we here again," Manik asked.

"Just following a tip about some treasure. That's pretty much it."

"Great. We're exploring a dark cave and possibly risking our lives all for some treasure. Fantastic." Shade turned around before grabbing Josh by the throat and lifting him off the ground.

"Listen, hedgehog. We're not here to listen to you. We're here because of my mom's passion. Get it?"

"Got it," Josh said.

"Good," Shade said before releasing his grip on Josh's throat.

"Are you okay, Josh," Sonia asked as she helped her boyfriend to his feet.

"Yeah. I can't say the same about my butt."

"Come on. We have to follow the others."

"Alright. I'm right behind you," Josh said as he and Sonia walked behind the others. They stopped when they saw that there were three tunnels ahead of them.

"Not this again. I'm getting tired of this."

"This definitely seems like one of these running gags," Lara said.

"Looks like we have to split up," Josh said.

"It does."

"Josh, got any idea how we're gonna do this," Manik asked.

"Of course I do. Lara's with Sonia, Shade's with Rouge, and you're with me."

"Sounds fair."

"Be careful, Sonia," Josh said.

"Same to you," Sonia said before she and Josh went into their respective tunnels.


"Why do you think Josh paired us up," Lara asked as she and Sonia walked through the tunnel they were in.

"Because he knows we're best friends. He probably thinks that we're like Kimmy and DJ."

"Then Josh has been watching too much Full House," Lara said.

"It's a good show, Lara," Sonia said.

"I think Josh spends a little too much time watching TV."

"You just don't know Josh the way I do."

"Just what is that supposed to mean," Lara asked before Sonia stopped walking.

"Think about it, Lara. Where does Josh get his fighting skills from? Shows like Power Rangers Samurai, Supah Ninjas, and Kickin' It. If he sees it, he can learn it, memorize it, and perform it perfectly," Sonia said.

"Sorry if I offended you, Sonia," Lara apologized.

"It's cool. You're lucky Josh didn't hear you saying that," Sonia said.

"Yeah."


"Did you eat before we left," Manik asked as he and Josh walked through the caverns.

"You know I did, Manik. You definitely wouldn't like a repeat of the last time we went through a cave."

"No, I wouldn't."

"You were seriously scared," Josh said.

"Was not," Manik countered.

"The sheer terror in your voice said otherwise."

"Whatever. Let's just find this treasure and get out before something does hunt us down."

"You're delusional," Josh said.

"Says you," Manik said.


"Are you sure this was the right tunnel to go down, Mom?"

"Of course it is. You only sound frightened because you've never gone treasure hunting with me," Rouge said.

"I think Josh did have the right to be scared of this place," Shade said to himself before hearing something.

"You hear something, Shade?"

"Yeah. Sounds like wings flapping, but I never saw any birds come in here. Unless..." A swarm of bats stopped Shade from finishing his statement when they started attacking him and Rouge. Unknown to Shade, one of the bats bit his mother in the neck before flying off.

"What was their deal," Shade asked as the bats flew away.

"I'm not sure, but I feel strange," Rouge said, unaware of the mark left by the bat bite.

"Let's go. I think that's enough treasure hunting for today."

"Yeah. I need to rest because I think one of those bats bit me."
