Author's note: I seriously had not planned to do a sequel for this; I had just planned to do the first story by the movie with the OC in and hoped that Lostgirl4eva liked it. Now here I am starting a sequel because thanks to the 45 AMAZING reviews I got on the first part and several people asking for a sequel, a little idea popped into my head and I couldn't ignore it. I have no idea how long this fic will last for; I'm thinking six to seven chapters if I can really stretch it, but I'll try for all the amazing people who wanted it. Also, the second part of my People Are Strange, Vampires Are Stranger story won't be started until I finish this one, because I am also planning a Stand By Me story to be posted on Friday and three fics at once would just kill me, so Lostgirl4eva, if you are reading this, you better love me for putting your sequel at the top of my priorities list! : )
So here is Nikki, back again, and below just before the story starts are all the responses to the guest reviewers who left amazing reviews on the ending of the first part of this story. Enjoy and please review!

Cookielover: Thank you! You only needed one word to put a smile on my face : )
: haha yeah I get like that too sometimes, thanks for the review! I'm glad you like the story and hopefully this is a good continuation : ). Ha I do not blame you, I was always a fan of the vampire hunters in this movie because they were so awesome and so funny, but unfortunately my heart belongs to the vampires. But I still love Edgar and Alan, they're just too awesome : D
"She smells like mothballs and I'm pretty sure she's older than Shakespeare." I complained as I sat on the counter in the comic book store, today had been my first day at school and I was not liking my English teacher.
Edgar chuckled from beside me, "Yeah Mrs Robinson could pass for a fossil these days, but she's a good teacher." He reasoned and I smirked.
"Probably because she was alive around the time most of the classics were written." I said with a shrug and he smiled.
"So besides the English teacher, how was the rest of the school day?"
"Alright. Most of the teachers seem alright but that'll probably fade after a week and they'll turn into the monsters we know them to truly be." I answered.
"Well we've faced worse monsters before."
"Amen to that." I said and grinned at Edgar, it was true that just over a month ago we faced a group of vampires and won. Since then things had been pretty quiet around Santa Carla, maybe from now on they would be.
Or so I thought.
As I was walking back down the boardwalk to where my Mom would be waiting for us after she finished work (thanks to Max "mysteriously disappearing" the video store was closed down for a few weeks before they ultimately decided to sell it, the new owners were nice enough to let my Mom and the other employees continue working there) I looked around at all the people on the carousel, at the ice cream stands or even the Surf Nazis running around. If it hadn't been for us, who knows how many of these people the vampires would have went on to kill? In the middle of my musings over our heroic act and the fact no one around here knows how lucky we are, I collided with a person walking in the opposite direction.
I saw it was a person, when really it felt like I had walked into a cement wall. I stumbled back slightly and the person caught my arm right before I could overbalance and fall. When I was sure I wasn't going to land on my ass I looked up to both apologize and thank the person- I laughed in my head as the thought hit me that this was more-or-less how Edgar and I met. I looked up to thank the person when for a split second my heart stopped.
It was him. He's meant to be dead. David's dead.
The thought faded quickly as I realised it wasn't David standing in front of me, but someone who resembled him very closely, yet had certain small differences that had my heart resuming a half-normal beat. His pale blonde hair was spiked but wasn't a mullet like David's had been. He had the same sharp features I remembered seeing on David's face after he died and we had to get rid of the body. Had he not been a monster, he'd have been very handsome.
I laughed slightly as I shook myself after realising I'd been staring for a few seconds longer than necessary.
"I'm sorry, I wasn't paying attention to where I was going." I said with an apologetic shrug, he smiled and released my arm, extending his hand towards me.
"I wasn't either, so I owe you an apology as well. Can I know the name of the young woman I'm apologising to?" he asked and I took his hand, trying not to let the fact his hand was abnormally cold register with me so it couldn't convince me of something that can't be true.
"I'm Nikki."
"Adam. Well, Nikki, I'm sorry for not paying attention to where I was going and bumping into you. I was just looking for someone." He replied politely.
"It's no problem. Well I should go." I said and took a step back; his hand caught my arm again.
"Hold on, perhaps you can help me." He said and I raised my eyebrows.
"Me? Uh, sure. What do you need help with?" I asked.
"I'm looking for a group of young men, around my age or perhaps a bit younger. They'd be considered, how you say, bikers? The group may be larger than I remember but there should be three blondes and a brunette. Have you seen them?" He asked and my stomach clenched in fear. He was looking for them, why would he be looking for them?
"N-no I haven't seen any bikers like that. I've not lived here very long so they may have left before I got here." I answered, trying to keep my voice as steady as possible; something in his eyes told me I wasn't doing a very good job.
"Are you sure?" He asked, his grip on my arm tightened slightly and I nodded vigorously.
"Positive. I'll keep an eye out for them, if I see them I'll let them know you were looking for them. Why are you looking for them?" call me rude or intrusive, but I needed to know if we had cause for worry, right now I was worrying enough for everyone.
"Just catching up with family. One of the boys, David, he's my brother." Was, was your brother. My brain screamed as I forced a smile back onto my face.
"Well, I'll let him know his brother was looking for him if I find him before you do." I said and he finally released my arm, the pressure from where his hand had been seemed to burn.
"Please do. I'll be sticking around until I see him so if you could let me know if you see him, that would be greatly appreciated." He said with a smile that seemed to be more sinister than friendly. He held my gaze with his ice blue eyes before he turned and strode off down the boardwalk.
I think I'm going to throw up. I half-walked, half-stumbled back to the car where Mom and Sam were waiting.
"There you are! You and Edgar must have ran out of things to talk about by now?" Mom teased as I neared the car, I smiled slightly in an effort to not arouse suspicion, one word about this to her and she'd turn hysterical in the parking lot.
"What's up with you? You look like you've seen a ghost." Sam said with a grin, God I would take a ghost over a possible vampire any day.
"Just your face, Sammy." I said as I climbed into the car. Mom chuckled as she started the car and we headed home. I couldn't pay attention to Mom and Sam talking in the front, or Sam making teasing comments about me and Edgar like he had ever since I told everyone Edgar and I were going out. Normally I would talk back; tonight I just didn't have it in me. I should have stayed longer at the comic book store; I should have watched where I was walking. Perhaps if I had I would have to face up to the awful truth.
It wasn't over yet.
