CHAPTER 4

It took a millisecond for me to understand what he was doing and another for my head to stop spinning then I was over the desk again and running toward them, fist in the air.

Closer I could see blood leaking down her neck and she wasn't struggling anymore. She was enjoying it holding him tightly. Both their eyes were closed. I didn't think I just threw my fist straight into his nose. I don't really have any upper body strength but his head snapped back, dislodging his mouth from Amy's neck. I took this time to pull Amy away but I expected him to fight he didn't and I pulled too hard. She flew into me throwing both of us to the ground.

The room was spinning again. I was sure I had a concussion. I tried to get up but Amy wasn't moving. Donny was holding a hand to his face and muttering to himself, pacing the room. Of course Amy would date someone who isn't mentally stable. I looked back down at Amy she was breathing but unconscious and blood was still leaking down her neck. Oh my god he actually bit her. My arms felt like spaghetti but I managed to push Amy off and sit up. Donny was at a desk now, staring at a phone still muttering. I didn't think he would notice if we left but I didn't was to chance it.

Still facing him I bent over Amy, tearing off a piece of my skirt that was already hanging off and pressing it to her neck and wiping away the blood. I pulled my hand away then froze. Her neck was fine with the exception of two little prick marks not a jagged ugly cut that would have been expected. My mind raced. How is that possible? Did he have fangs? No, he had a perfect set of teeth I saw when he smiled. Then how...? I didn't dwell on it she started bleeding again.

As I was about to press the make-shift cloth back to her neck Amy eyes snapped open. They were unfocused at first then she looked at me. "What happened?" Her voice was scratchy. "Where's Donny? Luna he bit me. Oh god he bit me."

I was about to 'say yeah I saw'. When Donny suddenly screamed out "We can't kill them!" Then he turned around. "But I'm hungry." Okay so he's really crazy not just a slightly 'I need help' but 'full out give me the straight jacket' crazy. Then he turned towards us. "I'll kill them then run it's so simple."

Amy got up slowly. "I'll distract him you run."

"Run where?" I whispered back fiercely. "Later we are going to have a very long conversation about your choice in guys." I said as I held onto the back of her shirt and slowly backed away from the approaching creature.

Amy let out a strangled laugh. "If we survive this I will write everything you say down." She looked around wildly most likely looking for a weapon, shame that there was none. My bag on the other side of the room behind Donny. "I say we go for the cells. We could lock him out."

"Or he'll lock us in and we'd be trapped."

"If you have any better ideas I'd love to hear them." I stayed silent. "Okay then we only have to make it behind the desk and we might have a chance." I didn't bother mentioning that there was no way to make it before he caught us.

Just then Donny boy did something that stopped both of us in our tracks. He grew his teeth, the canines. They were long and sharp, stretching to lightly touch his bottom lip. I looked around again. One word repeating over and over in my head. Weapon, weapon, weapon my head voice sounded as scared and desperate as I felt.

I grabbed Amy's arm and grabbed a lamp off the nearest desk. Then I threw it at him and took off at full speed pulled her towards the basement. I didn't look back to see if I made contact I just kept running. We stumbled down the stairs. We almost made it to a cell when Amy's hand was pulled away from mine.

I turned around and didn't even get a chance to see where she went because I was being thrown across the room. I hit the wall hard, this time I felt the blood running down my head. Definite concussion. Donny's fingers wrapped around my throat, squeezing the air out. I always thought that in movies people who were being choked to death were dumb, why not just play dead? But now I know why because it hurt, they keep trying to get away because they want to escape the pain.

"I won't drink from you." Donny said leaning into me. "You were always nice to me, so I'll do this quickly." He slid me higher up the wall, I could see over his shoulder.

I saw Amy running towards us with a wooden chair and closed my eyes. Trying not to pass out. I heard the chair make impact and shatter but the hands around my neck didn't loosen. Actually one tightened and the other moved. I opened my eyes and watched helplessly as the shock on Amy's face -probably from the chair doing no damage whatsoever- turned into horror as he reached for her neck and threw her against the wall beside me.

"I was going to make you suffer I never really did like you, but I guess this is okay." A sick smile appeared on Donny's face as he spoke, then -even though I thought it was impossible at this point- his hands tightened again.

I can't believe I'm going to die at seventeen, at the hands of a vampire. If I could laugh I would. Who would ever have thought that I would be killed by a crazy vampire?

What about mom? My eyes filled. Pictures of my free spirited, fun loving mother filled my head. Her long dark chestnut colored hair swinging around her as we danced around the house on my birthday. Her lilac eyes staring at me with concern when I came home crying because a boy said he didn't like me. And the look of worry, anger and fierce protectiveness in her eyes when I came on with a bruise on my arm from a soccer ball, that was deliberately kicked at me. Tears spilled over. How many times has she told me she wouldn't know what she would do with herself if anything happened to me? I don't even remember the last thing I said to her.

Distantly I heard Amy say, "I'm so sorry." I wanted to tell her it wasn't her fault, but the lack of oxygen finally got to me and the pain went away, I stopped struggling, and my eyes started to close.

Suddenly Donny jerked once and his skin began to pale and crack and he just fell apart crumbled like dust, dropping me and Amy to the ground. My vision was blurry. I knew I was going to pass out. I looked up and saw a boy standing next to Kelly.

"I knew we shouldn't have brought him with us, he was insane. He might have killed her." I recognized his voice but I couldn't place it. I was to dizzy. He crouched down in front of me. "I think she's okay just, unconscious. You check Lucinda." I was fading, i could feel it. The boy leaned closer and I saw his face, felt the shock of recognition then the darkness took over.
