Chapter 1/ Introduction
There are some rumors flowing around Solid High School saying, there has been some vampire attacks and a lot of people have fallen prey to the attacks and they have been mostly girls. But they don't end up dead, they come back to school, lively and healthy, but they have bite markings or either the neck or other parts of the body. Derrick H. Mass, a young light skinned male, who is thirteen years of age, has claimed to have seen the vampire, who looked more like woman than a man. Derrick or Click for short is also the school's photographer, though there are a lot of people in the school who dislike him because he likes to get into other people's business, mostly he helps out high school couples.
Click doesn't really have any good friends, most of his best buds moved away when the vampire attacks started. Even though Derrick is the photographer, he's mostly into snakes and The Dark Times. "The photographer has seen the vampire and it was last night!" Says Click as he was munching on some French fries and drinking his favorite type of milk: Strawberry. "I think that strawberry milk has screwed up that brain of yours, not that you had one, Derrick Mass." Julie said.
Derrick smirked. "I'm sorry, I don't speak whore." Derrick response smartly. Julie Halen is one of the students that dislike Click, the reason: Derrick helped out Julie's ex-boyfriend find out that she was just using him to get another guy. "Anyway you need to keep your nose out of other people's conversations." Derrick added. "Says the guy who ruined my relationship." She said.
Derrick ignored her. "Hey there Derrick." Morris greeted as he was bringing his tray and sitting next to Derrick. "I heard about you yesterday, after school detention for taking a pic of Mr. Wing and Mrs. Note kissing in the teachers' lounge." Morris said. "Yeah, I did and they didn't let me out until 6:30 p.m. that was the same time I saw that insane vampire." "Show me a picture of the vampire." Morris challenged. "You'll eat those words." Derrick said before pulling out the pic of the vampire and the poor girl out of his pocket. "Ooo is that really him/her?" Morris and Julie inquire. "I don't know I couldn't really get a good shot of the insane vampire so I don't know if it's male or female." Derrick explained.
"Hey" Roy greeted. "You were listening to our conversation weren't you Roy?" Derrick asks a bit annoyed. "As excepted from the famous karate student, Roy Valens." Morris said grinning. Derrick noticed that Roy's right eye had an eye patch. "Hey, Roy what happened to your eye?" Roy took off the eye patch, exposing a long scar that went down to his neck. Derrick's and Morris's eyes widened. "Who or what did that to you?" Morris inquires getting up and putting his tray in the trash. "I think it was a vampire." "What did it look like?" Derrick asks. "Female, pale skin, cat-like eyes and claws, and had a bloodthirsty expression on her face." Roy explained. Derrick nodded seriously. Then Derrick finished his lunch and milk and threw his tray out.
When he began to go back to where he was sitting, a young woman who looked about 37 walked passed him and whispered in his ear in a soft and icy tone: Don't get involved, boys. Before Derrick could open his mouth, the woman had vanished. Derrick's face looked really confused. "Hey, nosy boy lunch is getting ready to end." Julie said. Derrick shook his head and tried to get the thought of that woman's icy voice out of his head. "Hey, are you feeling alright Derrick, you look sick?" Morris asked with concern in his tone. Derrick turned back to reality. "Yeah I'm good." "You sure?" Roy asked. "I just told you two I'm fine." Derrick told them getting slightly annoyed. "There's no need to snap." Morris said. Roy put the eye patch back on. Derrick ran a hand though his short black hair. "Sorry, guys." "Don't worry about it, bud." Morris said grinning.
The lunch bell rung. Derrick, Morris and Roy walked side by side. "Hey Roy and Morris, how come you two didn't leave when the vampire attacks started?" "I can't leave my best bud to be drained of his awesome AB type blood." Morris said. Roy nodded in agreement. Roy, Morris and Derrick bumped fists. Morris Solid and Roy Valens are the only two people in the entire school, who didn't think of him as a freak or nosy in fact, Morris and Roy are the closest buds that Derrick has ever had. Morris is 13, same age as Click, he has short blond hair and blue eyes, Morris is a member of the archery club. He's interested in cherry blossoms, he been into them ever since his parents decide to take a vacation from work and go to Japan. Roy is fourteen, one year older than Morris and Click; he has fire colored hair which is down to his shoulders. He has green and blue hazel eyes.
Roy is interested in lighting, Roy got into this element when he was six years old, and he liked the way it looked and what it sounded like. "Hey guys, did you two happen by any chance notice a woman pass?" Roy and Morris nodded. "I don't think she's a teacher or nurse here?" Morris said. "She said, Don't get involved boys." I don't really know what she meant by that though." Roy spun the bolt on his necklace. "This may be just a theory, but do you think that woman is the cause of the attacks?" he asked.
Nobody answered because they didn't know. Derrick, Morris and Roy walked to their art class. The subject they were working is drawing your best bud fading into something beautiful or creepy. Roy, Derrick and Morris smiled slightly. Derrick drew Morris fading into cherry blossoms. Morris drew Roy fading into thunder.
Roy drew Derrick fading into tiny, but deadly snakes. The next objective was to use a P.C. to draw a drawing of yourself as a vampire and your blood bag (human) you are drinking from. They did the work, but Roy and the others were a bit curious on why the teacher would ask them to do such work. The art teacher walked towards the three. "Very good Morris, Derrick and Roy." He commented. Derrick jumped. "There's no need to be scared of me." "Um Mr. Sorrow, do you believe in vampires?" Morris asks, feeling a bit uneasy with the teaching being so close to them.
Mr. Sorrow licked his lips. "No, I don't believe in them, they are nothing more than mythical creatures." He answered. Roy noticed that whenever Mr. Sorrow spoke, a pair of fangs would show. Roy frowned. "Ha that was funny, and we were thinking that vamps were real." Derrick said.
Morris and Derrick looked at Roy, who had a serious expression on his face. "H-hey Roy, what's with the serious face?" They asked in sync. Roy changed his expression. "After school." he said. "Um okay." After school Roy told them, what he was thinking. "You seriously think that Mr. S is a vampire?" "I think the fans are more than enough to figure it out." Said Roy as he was reading a book that had information on thunder. "What should we do?" "You two go home and let me get rid of him since I'm the only one that can fight in our trio." Roy told them. "I'm not useless; I'm really good at archery." Morris told them. "But your aiming sucks." Derrick added. "Thanks for having my back." Morris said sarcastically. Derrick grinned. Roy, Morris and Derrick bumped fists. "Don't go dying on us." Derrick told him. "That won't happen, because I'm really hard to kill.
