MBAV:Fan Fiction Powerless Part 1
It was a celebratory time for White Chapel High. The football team had just won the homecoming football game and clinched the conference title. The star football player, quarterback Jeff Thomas is walking his girlfriend after White Chapel's big win tonight. "That was a great game, you were awesome, Jeff." His girlfriend said.
"Yes I was," Jeff replies, "aren't you glad you're with me?"
"Someone is a little confident I see," the girl answers.
"I have a right to be, I mean we won the game, you're my girl, what could be better?" Right then Jeff Thomas bumps into a scrawny young kid, possibly a freshman wearing a blue hoodie." "Hey watch it dork!" Jeff yells.
"Back off" the young hooded kid answers back.
"Who do you think you're talking to? Do you know who I am?" Jeff retorts angrily, shoving the young boy to ground, causing Jeff and his girlfriend to laugh hysterically.
The young boy gets up and looks into Jeff's eyes, which are a foot away from his own, whispers "my meal," and jumps up to grab Jeff by the neck, and immediately like vines drinking from a pond of water, white streams of energy flow from Jeff's body and enter the young boy, and cause the boy to grow in size while Jeff shrinks. When the boy is done, he is no longer scrawny, but big and muscular. Jeff, on the other hand, who was once 6-3, 230 pounds, was now down to 5-3, 125 pounds. He was no longer recognizable. He then looks at the scared and screaming girlfriend, he approaches her and says "Your turn, and what a shame, you're very pretty." He would also grab her by the neck and watch her energy flow like water from a stream and into his body. "That was great." The boy says to himself in a congratulatory manner. "I bet he won't push anyone around again." He leaves Jeff Thomas and his girlfriend lying on the ground.
Chapter 1
Ethan and Sarah are cuddled up together on the couch watching a vampire show on TV. Jane comes downstairs and is annoyed by the show.
"Another vampire show? Really?" Jane asks.
"Hey, it's a good one," Ethan replies. "It's about vampires who drink bottled blood. It's blood juice."
"I wish we had a place to buy blood juice," Sarah said. "It would make life so much easier."
"And I don't?" Ethan asks with a smile on his face.
"Of course you do Ethan." Sarah answers as she kisses him on the cheek. Jane, who's even more irritated than before begins to go back upstairs until she sees something shocking on TV. "EWWWW! WHAT ARE THEY DOING?!" Jane screams as Ethan fumbles as he tries to change the channel.
"They're, uh, hugging." Ethan awkwardly replies to Jane. "Just some hugging. Um Sarah," he whispers to Sarah, "What were they doing?"
"Do you remember health class?" Sarah replies. Ethan and Sarah begin look for something else on TV when they come across a news flash. "A student has gone missing. At approximately 7:30 pm, White Chapel football star Jeff Thomas was last seen with his girlfriend, Alexa James. While we do not know the whereabouts of Jeff Thomas, Alexa James is now in the hospital in Intensive Care as she was found lying on the ground next to an unidentified student. The Police are now investigating."
"That guy looks familiar," Ethan says to Sarah. "Do you think that could be Jeff Thomas?"
"No," Sarah answers, "Jeff is much bigger than that." Ethan, who is thinking about the situation, begins to wonder if he should investigate.
"I think I need to talk to Benny about this and maybe look into..."
"No you don't," Sarah cuts off "this is our night together. Let's just watch something else. Whatever it is, I'm sure we can get a lot more done tomorrow."
"Yeah you're right," Ethan concedes, "besides, we can't find anyone to watch Jane this late anyway. Would you like to finish watching that show?"
Chapter 2
The next school day at White Chapel was the complete opposite of yesterday. Everyone is either worried or sad about what happened to Jeff and Alexa. Many of the girls were hugging each other in tears while the guys were trying to keep their emotions together, a few of them failed. "Dear Teachers and students," the voice over the P.A. boomed. "Remember to keep Jeff Thomas and Alexa James in your thoughts and prayers today. Always remember, if we stick together, we can overcome."
Ethan, walking in the hallway with Sarah, Benny and Rory was discussing what he saw on the news last night. "It's so sad around here." Rory opens with. "I've never seen anything like this before, and we have supernatural stuff happen all the time."
"It just seems weird to me," Ethan said. "Jeff is with Alexa but no one knows what happened to him and there is another guy there?"
"I don't know." Benny replies, "I've seen that guy before. I mean, where did he even come from?"
"Let's ask him." Rory said. Everyone looks at Rory with awkward expressions, until Ethan ponders about what he said. "I mean, you are a seer, right Ethan? You should go up to the hospital and get a vision."
"You're right Rory." Ethan said. "We'll go there after school."
"Whoa," Rory said. "What do you mean we?"
"We'll, it was your idea." Ethan said, "Besides, it's the only way to find out who that guy is."
"You do know they're not just going to let you up there, right?" Sarah says in a skeptical manner. "You have to find out what room he's in and prove you're next of kin."
"Yeah, I know," Ethan says understandingly. "We're going to need a distraction."
"Leave that up to me." Benny says, "I know exactly what to do."
"Alright guys, you have fun." Sarah says to the boys. "I have to check on Erica, she's going through another hunger phase. I'll see you later."
"Okay, see you later." Ethan says as they all depart for class.
Chapter 3
After school, Ethan, Benny and Rory all meet at the White Chapel Memorial Hospital. From the outside it looks like a cathedral and actually bigger than one also. On the inside, it is completely white. White walls, white furniture, white signs with dark lettering, and the doctors (frustrated with all the supernatural illness), nurses and receptionists all wear white. It has five floors. It is a very busy hospital as it is the only one in White Chapel. "It's so busy in here, "Rory observes, "who would think in a town this small it would be this insane?"
"Well, with all the supernatural disasters that go on here," Ethan replied, "They would hire some paranormal experts."
"Come on guys," Ethan said impatiently. "We have to figure out what room Jeff is in so I can know what's going on."
"Why don't you fake a stomach ache, Rory?" Benny suggested.
"But I don't have a stomach ache." Rory answered. "Besides, I'm a vampire, we don't get those."
"Abdomen Dolore," Benny chants as a sudden sharp pain comes to Rory's stomach.
"Ow, my stomach," Rory writhes in pain. "Why did you do that?"
"Stop your bellyaching," Benny says, "Now I just need a disguise." So the boys sneak around to the back of the hospital and they come across the laundry area, they immediately jump into a basket of clothing and come out dressed in two sets of scrubs and a hospital gown. Afterward, they manage to enter the hospital unnoticed from the laundry area and find a bed to put Rory in. They move around the hospital trying to find where Jeff Thomas would be to no avail. Eventually a nurse stops them in the hallway.
"Excuse me doctor, where is this patient headed?" The nurse asks.
'Um," Benny stammers, "To, the, um, ICU."
"What is wrong with this patient?" The nurse asks
"Ahh, pend-is-i-tis?" Benny answers unconvincingly.
"I'm going to have to check with..." The nurse responds before being interrupted by Ethan's telepathy."
"It's okay," Ethan says convincingly to the nurse. "We just need a room next to John Doe." Ethan's growing telepathy now gives him the power of persuasion.
"I have just the room." The nurse replies, as she leads them right next to Jeff Thomas' room. "Here we are 3-B. I hope your appendix feels better young man."
"Thank you," Rory says while writhing in pain. "That was awesome." He whispers to Ethan.
When the boys get settled into the room, Benny immediately lifts the stomach spell off of Rory, which causes an argument.
"You didn't have to use that spell!" Rory yells at Benny.
"I had to make it convincing!" Benny yells back.
"Hey you two," Ethan whispers forcefully, "you're going to blow our cover. Keep it down while I check on Jeff." Ethan then checks on Jeff, checking to see if this really is Jeff or someone else. He checks around the body, hoping to get a vision, to no avail. He is almost convinced that there is nothing wrong until he gets to the boy's neck. Ethan then gets a vision of the boy being attacked, and watching his body shrink. It is in fact Jeff Thomas, just skinnier and sicklier. Unfortunately, the attacker's face is covered by his hood, so he still doesn't know who did this to Jeff. Ethan was on his way to tell Benny and Rory, but he is soon greeted by hospital security guards, one grabbing Benny, and two grabbing Rory (who's still afraid of being exposed as a vampire).
"You do not belong in here," one of the security guards says to Ethan. "I'm going to have to ask you to leave." The three are then escorted to the back of the hospital and thrown surprisingly five feet away from the building. Rory, who actually lower than Benny after they were thrown in the air, floated so Benny would land first, while Rory landed on him.
"Ow," Benny groans. "What do those guys eat? They're so, strong. Get off me, Rory."
"Hurts don't it?" Rory asks. "Now you know how I feel, also, you should learn to fly."
"Listen guys," Ethan interrupts. "That was Jeff Thomas. He was attacked and had all of his muscles sucked out of him."
"Did you get a look at the guy who did it?" Benny asked, still in pain.
"No," Ethan answered. "He had a hooded sweater that covered his face. We have to find out who did this and figure out a way to stop him."
"Right now?" Rory asked. "I have a meeting with the Vampire Council. They said if I didn't come, they'd tear my head off."
"Okay Rory, but meet with us when you're done." Ethan said.
"Okay, guys I'll see you later." Rory ended and they went their separate ways. Rory was on his way to the Council when he saw someone getting mugged. He went to see what was happening and he was surprised by who it was.
"You?" Rory asked. "You're the person behind the attacks."
"What are you are talking about?" The hooded boy asked.
"I just saw you; I can't believe it's you. How did you learn to do that?"
"You're confused." The hooded boy replies, "Your mind is playing tricks on you, you need to forget what you saw."
"I won't forget this." Rory responds.
"Yes you will." The hooded boy answers as he grabs Rory by the jaw and puts his hand on his head. In a matter of seconds, the stream of energy abandons Rory and goes into the hooded one's head. Rory is left dumbfounded and confused about where he is, as his memories have abandoned him. The hooded boy, now with Rory's memories, whispers one word. "Ethan."
Chapter 4
Later that night at Ethan's house, Ethan is discussing his vision with Benny and Sarah in his bedroom. "So that guy really was Jeff Thomas?" Sarah asked. "I can't believe it. I mean, he's so unrecognizable."
"Yeah, I'm still trying to figure out how this happened." Ethan pondered aloud. "I haven't been able to find anything on the internet or library about stuff like this. I don't even know where to look."
"Were there other occurrences like this?" Benny asked.
"I don't know." Ethan answered. "All I know is I've never seen anything like this before."
Just then the doorbell rang and the three rushed down to see who that was at the door. They were surprised to find it was Anastasia and her bodyguards.
"Hi, to what do we owe the pleasure?" Ethan asked in a surprising manner.
"Aren't you going to invite us in?" Anastasia asked impatiently.
"Um, sure, um, yeah come on in." Ethan stutters. "So how can we help you?"
"You can tell me where Rory is." Anastasia responds. "He was supposed to come to a very important meeting and he never showed up. I figured since you were friends you can tell me where he might be."
"We haven't seen him since earlier today." Benny added. "He told us he was going to a meeting with you."
"Are you sure you're not hiding him?" Anastasia demanded.
"They don't have a reason to," Sarah quipped. "I'm starting to wonder where he is."
"Yeah, this is strange." Ethan added. "He's usually so reliable about showing up."
"Even when you don't want him to," added Benny quietly.
"Benny," Ethan said in a slight scolding manner. "We have to find him. He might be in trouble."
"Hey guys," Erica interrupted as she arrived with Rory. "Look who I found?"
"Where did you find Rory?" Anastasia asked.
"He was just walking around with that dumbfounded look on his face."
"What else is new?" One of bodyguards asked.
"Anyway, he didn't seem to know who I was," Erica continued. "So I brought him here."
"Who are you people?" Rory asked as he was obviously bewildered as to where he was.
"It's me, Ethan, and Benny and"
"Anastasia." Anastasia interrupted, obviously annoyed. "You were supposed to be at a meeting and you know the penalty for missing important meetings."
"Meeting? What meeting?" Rory asked. "I don't even know where I am. I don't even know who I am?"
"Rory, what's wrong with you?" Ethan asked as he then moved toward Rory. He then grabbed Rory and immediately had a vision. He saw Rory being attacked by the boy in the hoodie, who focused on Rory's head. The hooded boy then turned toward Ethan and called his name. "He was attacked by the same person who attacked Jeff."
"Hoodie guy?" Benny quipped.
"Yes," Ethan answered. "I saw that Rory recognized him and had his memory erased."
"Wait a minute," Erica interrupted. "What's going on here?"
"Rory has amnesia." Anastasia answered. "Tell me everything you know Ethan." Ethan then explained the situation to everyone so everyone was up to speed about the attacks to Rory and the other two students.
"This sounds like a parasite." Anastasia figured out.
"How do you know that?" Sarah asked. "We've been trying to find everything we could on this and we got nothing."
"Parasites don't want anyone knowing about them." Anastasia answered. "They like to remain anonymous. That's how they remain strong. I thought we're rid ourselves of them all. Ari put out an alert. We have a parasite loose. Erica, you look after Rory."
"Aw," Erica groaned, "Do I have to?"
"Yes!" Anastasia forcefully said as her eyes began to glow. "You do." Erica quietly accepted her mission afterwards. "We must go. Be careful, if a parasite grabs a hold of you, he will be difficult to stop. They love taking powers from the supernatural." Anastasia and her bodyguards left the house.
"Parasites," Benny analyzed. "I would have never guessed it. So, when do we go stop him?"
"You heard what Anastasia said," Sarah said. "We have to be careful. We need to figure out his weakness and his strengths. If we go in there without knowing how to beat him, we'll all end like Rory, or worse."
"Yeah, you're right Sarah," Ethan agreed. "We have to..." As Ethan touched Sarah's shoulder, he has a vision of a hospital bed which pans up to reveal that it is Sarah lying in a bed with a breathing tube in her mouth. She was in a coma. This causes panic and fear in Ethan that he hasn't had since his altercation with Stern.
"What is it?" Sarah asked. "What's the matter?"
"Oh, it was nothing." Ethan lied.
"Please tell me the truth." Sarah said.
"Yeah, dude," Benny added, "It's obvious that you saw something big. You might as well just tell us."
Ethan took a deep breath and told his friends of his vision. "Okay I saw you," Ethan said fearfully, "in a coma." As Ethan said this, a shocked reaction came over everyone, Sarah was completely speechless.
"But how?" Benny asked. "She's a vampire."
"What's a vampire?" Rory asked after a seconds of silence. This caused Erica to flash her fangs and glow her eyes. "Oh."
"I can't let this happen." Ethan said, looking scared and confused and yet determined to protect his girlfriend. "I have to stop this."
Chapter 5
The next day at school left Ethan even more nervous about his vision. He didn't want Sarah to leave his sight. Benny and Erica, with Rory tagging along, try to ease his worries to no avail. Ethan has a difficult time trying to focus on his work, or failed attempts to research parasites. Things go from bad to worse for Ethan as news of more attacks come through the speaker.
"Teachers and students," The principal says over the intercom. "I regret to inform you that there have been more attacks on our students. Kurt Lochner and David Stachowski are the latest victims. Please remember to walk in groups and be careful. One other note…"
"We have to end this now." Ethan says as stops listening to the announcement. "I don't know how, but if we don't act soon, there will be no one left for the parasite to feed on."
"I know," Erica added. "If I have to stay with Rory another day I'm going to rip his face off."
"You can actually do that?" Rory asked as everyone else moaned or ignored it.
"But Ethan, "Sarah interfered. "You're not thinking clearly. We have to be smart about this. We can't just fight who we don't know we're fighting." As Sarah said this, Ethan's frustration begins to bubble over.
"She's right Ethan," Benny added. "Besides, Anastasia said..."
"I don't care what Anastasia said!" Ethan yelled in frustration before coming to his senses. "Listen, I'm sorry about that. I usually have a handle on what we're up against but I'm completely lost. I don't want anything to happen to any of you..." Ethan grabs Benny and immediately gets another vision. This time it shows Erica, who just had her vampire venom drained, curled up in a corner sobbing while the parasite stalks her.
"For all of your power and your strength and your attitude, deep down you're just a scared little girl," the predator says to Erica. He then turns his attention to Benny, who is crawling away with all of his might. The predator steps on Benny and begins to drain Benny's power. "And you, the crown jewel. When I'm finished with you, no one will stop me."
The vision ends and Ethan is speechless. Sarah, Benny, Erica and Rory all look scared, worried, confused and lost, respectively.
"Ethan?" Sarah calls, but Ethan turns around and leaves. "Ethan!" She cries out again and more nervous than before. "I've never seen him like this before. I need to find him."
"Maybe he just needs alone time Sarah," Erica said. "I'm sure he'll find a way to save the day."
"What's wrong with that guy?" Rory asked.
"Nothing Rory," Benny answers. "I'm going to talk to my grandma to see if she has any ideas on how to stop parasites."
"Okay," Sarah says, "But I'm coming with you."
"Good luck guys." Erica said.
"I need you to come too." Sarah added. "Please?"
"Okay," Erica agreed. "I'll be there."
Meanwhile, Ethan has left the school trying to figure out how to protect his friends. His fear has overwhelmed him. He has no idea how to handle a parasite or what one looks like. He's about to give up when all of sudden a voice comes from nowhere.
"Need some help with something?" The voice says.
"No, I'm fine," Ethan lied. "I just need some air."
"If you're looking for parasites, I know where to find one." The voice said.
"How did you know?" Ethan asked. "I'm been trying to find out who attacked these students. Do you know where he is?"
"You're looking at him." The voice says as he knocks out Ethan with a nerve pinch. The boy then picks up his blue hooded sweater and puts it on.
Chapter 6
"I still can't reach him." Sarah said to Benny. "I'm really worried about him"
"I haven't this seen him this scared since he thought we were zombies." Benny added. "So grandma, do you know how to stop parasites?"
"Unfortunately I don't." Evelyn answered. "I would have to look in an ancient text to find a solution. These parasites are really slippery. They know how to remain anonymous. But it is important that you do not fight this person. That's what he wants. He will take your power and use it against you."
"But what if this guy has Ethan?" Sarah asked fearfully. "I can't let anything happen to him."
"You should do a search." Evelyn said. "You stay with me Sarah, and Benny, you go with Erica and Rory."
"Wonderful," Erica mumbled under her breath sarcastically. "That's just what I need."
"Well, Erica," Evelyn said. "We need your vampire speed to cover more ground, and with Rory's amnesia, he's not much good to us." As Evelyn said this, Rory was playing with Evelyn's medallions. "Don't touch that Rory, it's very dangerous. Alright kids, let's go."
Meanwhile, at an abandoned house not far from the school, Ethan wakes up and finds himself handcuffed to the back of a chair. The windows are boarded up, and the walls look like they are on the verge of collapsing. The hooded parasite greets him. "Rise and shine Ethan."
"Who wwwho are you?" Ethan asked.
"What, you don't know?" The hooded boy asked. "Come on, take a good look. I know I've gotten bigger since the last time you saw me, but look really hard." The parasite takes off his hood, and Ethan looks at his face, which is and he realizes who he is.
"Shaun? Shaun Johnson?" Ethan said. "What happened to you? Why are you doing this?"
"Payback," Shaun answered. "For all the people that picked on me, bullied me, and never wanted to be my friend."
"What are you talking about?" Ethan asked. "No one picked on you. They left you alone because they thought you were creepy."
"Oh, yes, that's right." Shaun realized. "Well, I was rejected from the football team. All I wanted was a chance to pr..."
"You never tried out for the football team." Ethan corrected. "You thought football was a dumb sport. In fact you didn't like any sports. Is that what happens to parasites? I mean, you take on so much energy you forget your own past?"
"Don't call me a parasite." Shaun scolded. "I am an opportunist. I see what I want and I take it. It's the American way."
"Dude, we're in Canada." Ethan corrected, shocked by Shaun's absentmindedness.
"Whatever!" Shaun said frustrated. "It doesn't matter, you have what I want. Thanks to the memories I took from Rory, I'm going to get it tonight." Shaun goes behind Ethan to unlock the handcuffs. "I want this to be a fair fight. Let's go."
"I'm not fighting you Shaun." Ethan said. "You need help, and I can get it for you."
"I don't want your help." Shaun said. "I want your vision. Now fight me."
"No!" Ethan fires back.
"DO IT!" Shaun screams.
"NO!" Ethan screams back.
"Fine," Shaun accepts. "You don't have to fight me, but I wonder after I get your power if Sarah, by the way I'm still surprised that she's actually with you because she's out of your league, would be interested in me. I think I'd make a better boyfriend."
"LEAVE HER ALONE!" Ethan yelled as he charged at Shaun. He got a hold of him and went inside his mind.
"What are you doing in here?" Shaun asked. "You don't belong here. Get out now."
"So this is what happened to those victims?" Ethan said as he saw visions of Jeff Thomas, Alexa James, Rory Keaner, Thomas Lochner, and David Stachowski. "You've taken from all of these people; I think it's time to give it back. You will return everything you've given…"
"I SAID GET OUT OF MY HEAD!" Shaun yells as he pushes Ethan from his thoughts so hard that Ethan fell backwards. Shaun then goes to lift Ethan over his head and throw him into a broken down dining room table. "You want to help me Ethan, give me your powers and your friends' powers."
"Never!" Ethan yells back. "You'll have to kill me first." As Ethan finishes his sentence, Shaun proceeds to punch him repeatedly in the face.
"I don't need to do that." Shaun said with an evil grin on his face. "Let's say we invite Sarah to the party."
"No, leave her alone." Ethan said fearfully. He tries to charge at Shaun again but Shaun grabs and slings him into the wall. Afterwards, Shaun stands over Ethan, grabs his phone, which Ethan is unable to hold on to, and leaves text messages for Sarah and Benny, each with different addresses to where they live.
Sarah it's me. I'm in trouble. Come to 662 Walnut Street.
Benny it's me. I'm in trouble. Come to 445 Peanut Street.
Afterwards, the messages are received by both Benny and Sarah and she is sent into frenzy.
"It's Ethan!" Sarah said. "I have to get to him."
"Okay, but we have to be careful," Evelyn said, "It might be a trap."
"I can't risk it," Sarah returned. "I can't lose him. I gotta go." Sarah rushes off and leaves Evelyn behind. "Sarah, wait!" Evelyn yells out to no avail. With no way to travel, Evelyn contacts Benny to tell him about the message.
"662 Walnut Street?" Benny asked. "Ethan told me he was on Peanut."
"Oh dear," Evelyn sighed. "It is a trap. Sarah ran off for Ethan. Please meet me by the school."
Meanwhile, back at the house, Ethan can barely move, he is bleeding from his mouth and his eye is starting to well. Shaun taunts him even more.
"Wow," Shaun said in amazement. "For someone so smart, you really are stupid about your friends. I think it's time for your vision to be put in better hands." With that, Shaun grabs Ethan's neck, and like so many before him, energy streams leave Ethan and enter into Shaun, which cause Shaun to get a vision. He sees opposition from Sarah immediately. Just as Shaun finished draining Ethan of his power, Sarah walks in. "Right on schedule."
"NOOOOOOO!" Sarah screams as she sees Ethan lying on the ground barely conscious. Sarah is now feeling a rage she hasn't felt since she was first bitten by Jesse, her eyes glow, her fangs protrude, and her voice sounds like a Death Metal singer. "BACK AWAY FROM HIM!" She rushes towards Shaun at a speed she's never traveled and uppercuts Shaun so hard, he is lifted five feet in the air and falls back 10 feet, where Sarah is immediately behind him to kick him square in the back. Sarah, with tears in her eyes, immediately starts throwing haymakers, landing all of them, while Shaun laughs the entire time. This only makes Sarah angrier, "You find that funny? You should find this hilarious" She goes to bite Shaun, but she hesitates, not wanting to be a murderer, this gives Shaun time to grab Sarah's neck and begin the process of draining her power. Sarah has a difficult time getting away until she scratches him in the face. Sarah, who's now free from his grasp, hisses at Shaun only to find out that her eyes have reverted to her natural brown color and she has no fangs. Realizing this, she is immediately fearful; she has lost her vampire power. Shaun is laughing hysterically now and stands over Sarah.
"Looking for these?" Shaun asks as his eyes now glow yellow and his fangs protrude. "I've had enough fun; it's time for you to take a nap." Shaun grabs Sarah by the neck and finishes draining her energy. Veins begin to pop out of the side of Sarah's' forehead as she becomes weaker.
Sarah musters up the last of her energy to turn her head and say "E-than," before she passes out. After this, Shaun throws her limp body toward Ethan. Ethan, who is shocked, saddened, and weakened, crawls toward Sarah and holds her head in his arms passionately sobbing for his girlfriend.
"Sa-rah," Ethan cries. "I'm so sorry. This is all my fault. Please don't die."
"Dude," Shaun said, "She's not dead, yet. Oh, and don't worry, I'll take good care of your friends, one at a time." With that, Shaun leaves at breakneck speed as Ethan passes out.
Afterward, Evelyn, Benny, Erica, and Rory finally enter the house. "I can't believe I got the wrong the address."
"I can't believe you weigh so much Benny." Erica quipped.
"Come on kids, we have to find Sarah and hopefully Ethan." Evelyn interrupted. They begin to look around the house until Rory, who's wandered off again trips over two bodies lying on the floor.
"Ow," Rory said, "Who are these two people lying on the floor." This causes everyone to come in the room, only to be shocked by what they see.
"SARAH!" Erica shouted.
"ETHAN!" Benny shouted. They immediately rush to their sides. Evelyn is trying to keep her composure but even she is having a hard time doing that.
"We have to get them to the hospital." Evelyn said.
"But grandma," Benny quipped. "Isn't there anything you can do for them?"
"The only way to save them is to stop this parasite. The most we can do right now is to get them stabilized."
"Then what?" Erica asked.
"Hope for the best." Evelyn answered.
Meanwhile, back at the school, Shaun gets more visions of Ethan's friends. He seems to be proud of his accomplishments. "Soon," Shaun said. "I'll have enough power to be unstoppable. No one will ever ignore me again."
To be continued…
