Disclaimer: I don't own My Babysitters a Vampire


Jane

Benny had driven as fast as he could back to my house. Luckily, we hadn't been caught by any cops on our way back. If we had, we would get ticketed for speeding and Benny would be arrested for driving without a license underage. I was crying in the backseat. Ethan had just let one of my best friends become a vampire! I couldn't even call him my brother anymore. I hated him. And for once, I actually meant it.

Benny's grandma had put Maddie to bed once we got home. She and Benny left pretty quickly after that. Sarah and I just sat in the living room, staring at a T.V screen that wasn't even on. We were stunned. Neither of us could even say anything. Most of the lights were off. Tears streamed down my face. I could tell that Sarah was crying as well. My parents got home eventually. Sarah said maybe ten words and left.

I went upstairs without a word. I got maybe two hours of sleep that night tops. I don't think I got any sleep the rest of the weekend. I barely came out of my room. My parents couldn't get me out so they brought food to my room and left it outside the door. I brought it in and picked at it. The entire weekend the stuff Ethan had said to me kept replaying itself in my head. Over, and over again.

When Monday came, trudged out of bed at six in the morning. Maddie had already left with Ethan. I wasn't too happy that he took her with him. Though he did leave a note on the table saying that I had to pick Maddie up after school. I was perfectly happy about that.

I left the house before seven and wandered to school. I somehow was almost late.

Benny

"Where were you all weekend?" I yelled when I found Jane during second period, study hall. "I called you, texted you, and tried to video chat you at least a million times!"

"You did?" She was shaken out of a trance.

"Yes. Where. Were. You"

"In my room, staring at the ceiling," Jane responded. I sighed.

"Your brother was only doing what he had to do, Jane. It wasn't like he would do it if he didn't want to."

"But he did it anyways! I also no longer consider him a brother."

"Jane, I know you and Ethan have had some problems in the past, but you need to let them go. One day, he will be gone, and you will never see him again."

"If that happens, I will be glad for it!"

"Why can't you just let it go?" I ask.

"He tried to give you up to the vampires, Benny. HE tried to kill you! HE was the one who allowed Rory to have the humanity sucked out of him! How can you even bare to look at him after that?"

"I never said that I liked him!" I held my hands up in defense. "You may need him one day and he won't be there for you."

"Like I said. He is no longer my brother in anyway but blood."

"Have you talked to Rory at all?" I ask. I really didn't want to lose my friendship with Jane over a silly matter such as this.

"Nope. I haven't even looked at my phone since Friday afternoon."

"You are insane, you know that right, Jane?"

"No, Ethan is insane. His counselor has said it herself."

"You know what? We will look for Rory at lunch. I have to get to class." I left as quickly as possible. Jane was a lot more like Ethan than she even knew.

The next few periods went by slowly. Part of it was because I was bored out of my mind. The other part was that I was worried about Jane and Rory. I sat down at my lunch table at lunch, and Jane wasn't there yet. Where she was though was a total mystery. I was very surprised when Sarah came and sat at my table."

"Is it okay if I sit here?" She asked.

"Yeah, but why. I'm a freshman and you are a junior. Won't that hurt your cred that you have?"

"Are you kidding me? I couldn't care less. The only thing that gave me anything was going out with Jesse, and he gave me a curse," Sarah said. "Do you know where Jane is?"

"Nada. She hasn't shown up for lunch yet, and she is always here first."

"Weird. I haven't seen her either."

"She has been acting strange. She no longer thinks that Ethan is her brother. I have a feeling that Samantha and Ross are going to have three problem kids on their hands. Jane is starting to act very similar to how Ethan was before he joined the Drama Club of bloodsuckers."

"That is scary. You should tell her parents and get her into counseling and get her back to normal before you lose her."

"She doesn't realize it, but Jane is a lot more like Ethan than she is willing to let on." I looked at Sarah. "Those two were once best friends. Inseparable. You couldn't tell the difference between them. Jane had short hair for a girl, and Ethan had long hair for a guy. Pretty much the same length. They wore the same kind of clothing, liked the same everything. Rory was my best friend, but we were all really close. Then Ethan's grades began to slip because he didn't understand it."

"Wait. Ethan Morgan, the resident genius of this school, the kid who was moved up a grade, wasn't always this smart?"

"Yeah. He was almost failing. The other three of us had become the class's student council and he pulled away, and then we were offered a world trip, and we left him behind. He had completely changed by the time we got back. He was in summer school that summer. He would stay after school every day for a year. What we didn't realize was it was because he was getting work for the upper grade. The next year he had new friends and was pushed up a grade. Ethan was a loner for an entire year, and we barely even noticed because of how caught up we were in our own lives."

"Wow."

"Yeah. Jane is starting draw away from me, like Ethan did. That is never a good sign. I think they have, or had a physic connection. I have a feeling that it isn't there anymore, or if it is, it isn't strong."

"That is weird."

"I know, isn't it?" We ate in silence. We both had a long week last week, and our friends were going haywire."

The bell rang for class, I had algebra next. You will never know how thankful you could be by having math in the afternoon until you actually have it. You learn so much more when you are awake. Jane and I had the same class, and I had hoped to see her there. I knew one thing for sure, Jan would never miss class or ditch. Even with everything going on, Jane's grades were always important to her.

So you can tell that I was really surprised when Jane didn't show up to any of her classes the rest of the day.

Jane

I had to know what was really going on with Ethan. I know that I kept saying that I wanted nothing to do with him anymore, but I lied. I am missing a big piece or pieces to this puzzle. Something was off about Ethan and that Eva girl. More than just the fact that they were seers. I knew of three people that would know, so I went off to find them.

It was bugging me so much in third period that I went to the bathroom, or to my locker, or something, I don't even remember what I had come up with, I just left and didn't go back. And somehow, nobody caught me walking out the front door of the school. It was like all the teachers and student monitoring the halls had vanished.

Before I had even realized it, I had sprinted all the way home, and went next door to Benny's grandma's house. I recalled her name was Evelyn. I was scared for an unknown reason. Maybe it was because I had been abruptly thrown into the world of the supernatural. I knew that Evelyn knew about it, form the time Jesse was there, to him mentioning it. Also, she had her off limits study was a key factor into figuring it out.

I banged on the door. It opened a few seconds later. The elder lady was standing there.

"Jane, dear. What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be in school?"

"Yes. I just had some questions about my brother, and the drama club. We found the truth of them out on Friday the hard way." Her face faltered. The look in her eyes was one of terror.

"Oh, dear. Come in, Jane. We have much to discuss. I'll make tea." I went in and sat down. She made tea gave a cup to me.

"How did you find out?" Evelyn asked.

"Our babysitter's Jesse's ex-girlfriend. Her best friend and Rory got roped into going to a party, and we had to help them."

"What do you know about the drama club, Jane?"

"I know that most of them are vampires, and that others are supernatural beings." I paused. "And that Ethan is a seer, and wants me to join them. I said no. I thought it was the right decision at the time. They gave me two choices, and I know now that it was a mistake. Rory is now a vampire, and I have lost my brother forever. I want to know what is wrong with him. Why he is so distant and harsh?"

"Jane, he is a seer yes, but he is a very powerful one. It was awakened when he was in fifth grade, so the power keeps on growing. Ethan can see into the past, he can see things that are happening in the present as they happen, and he can see and predict the future. Along with that he can enter people's minds and thoughts. His mind is always going different ways and sometimes he doesn't even know what is real and not real. It isn't his fault that he was born with a gift."

"Is that the only reason?" I asked cautiously.

"No. He has been through a lot, and his mind cannot always keep up with everything that is going on. That is when he has outbursts and other things. Ethan and Evangeline have met people in the past and future that they are friends with through the psychic energy. Sometimes they will start a conversation with one of them while talking to another person. They are thought of insane because of that, though most people don't know that if they aren't close to them."

"So, what are you saying, exactly?"

"They experience and learn from the past, live in the present and predict the future," Evelyn stated.

"That makes a lot more sense."

"It should, you and your brother are a lot more alike than you are willing to allow. You have the same powers as he does, just his are more developed and advanced. Yours, Jane, are yet to be awakened. They should be soon."

"Tuff enough." (A/N: smirks evilly at quote from favorite book.)

"Jane, let me be clear on one thing. You can never, will never, and should not even think of taking on Ethan or Evangeline in a battle, you are all seers, but they are far more advanced then you are and will destroy you and you mind before you even can get a blow on them. It is very important that you remember this. Maybe one day you can take them on, and possibly survive, but right now, you chance at surviving are slim to none."

"Wow, way to put as gently as possible."

"Jane, you may be my grandson's best friend, but sarcasm in this situation is not the best idea. And just so you know, I was putting it lightly." I shut up at that. The tone that was in her voice was a bit too harsh t bother with.

"Why do I feel like I am still missing a huge piece of this, Mrs. Weir?"

"You are, but I have sworn an oath not to tell you unless I have permission. I am afraid that at this moment that I don't, Jane. I am sorry."

"They will kill you if you tell me, won't they?" She looked at me with worn eyes, with a sad smile.

"There are some things worse than death, dear." We sat in silence. I bid her farewell and went home. All the information was flowing through my head. I went home, and was met by angry parents. I had almost forgotten I had ditched school.

"Where have you been? Do you know how scared we have been?" My dad yelled. "When we got a call from your school, we thought that it was because your brother had ditched or was in a fight or had beat a kid. It wasn't. They said that you had vanished, and had probably left school. But with this town, you could have been kidnapped or murdered! Jane, why did you ditch!"

"Um, couldn't focus. Had to clear my head, and by the time that I realized where I was, I had ran around the entire town. Then I went to talk to Mrs. Weir," I said sheepishly.

"Jane, you know the rules, you can't leave school without our consent, ever," mom said.

"Ethan does it all the time!"

"Yes, but he still follows the rules. He has to collect all of his schoolwork, and then he can leave."

"I don't think Ethan was ever at school today!"

"Your brother is a different matter, Jane. It has no concern with you whatsoever. This is about you ditching school." My father gave me a very stern look.

"I'm sorry. I have had very confusing few days and I need to still grasp what is going on!"

"That isn't the point, Jane! The point is you left school, you barely come out of your room all weekend, and you are starting to push people away, Jane. You are starting to act how Ethan was when his grades began to slip in fourth grade. You aren't yourself." My mother's words had hit me hard in that moment. I was turning into my brother. "Jane, you and Ethan may not be friends anymore, but you are more alike than anyone I have ever met, no matter how much you don't wasn't to accept that, it is true."

"I am nothing like Ethan. I am a geek, I am not horrid to people, I care for my friends, and I am not crazy!"

"You are both loyal to those that you trust. You both are horrible to each other. And yes your brother does have mental health issues, but that doesn't mean that you aren't alike. Ethan trust very few people that are in his life right now, but I think that he is gaining trust with Maddie. He is rebuilding a bridge between one of his sisters." My dad gave me a gentle look filled with sadness. "I have watched him over the past few years, he does wasn't to reconnect with you, Jane. You just haven't given him a chance."

I screamed at the top of my lungs and ran to my room. I landed on my bed and cried. Everything that my parents had said were true. Ethan was trying to get me back in his life.

"You just have to help us or stay out of our way. Or you go against us. You can decide which choice you want to make." His words echoed in my head. He was the one giving me the choice, Ethan had been the one wanting to reconnect with me. If he hadn't, I have a feeling that I would have died a long time ago.

"Don't think of taking Ethan on in battle, he is far more advanced and will destroy you." How could he destroy me? Would he create images in my head and make me insane? I know I am still missing something.

Sarah had been almost fearful when I had said that Ethan was my brother. I was missing something about him. Something big. Whatever it was, it wasn't good. Maybe there was more to the puzzle than only one piece. I am missing parts of one mystery. I have a feeling that Sarah knows, and if she doesn't, it was because Jesse hadn't told her. I have a feeling that Sarah knows something, or has a suspicion.

I would need to talk to her.

Right in that moment, I fell asleep, I had dreams of a dark future, where the town was engulfed in flames, and Ethan and Eva were at the top of a hill looking down at the ruins, smiling at the destruction. There were blasts of energy coming from every direction from above. There was a fifteen year-old girl in the sky. I didn't see her face, but she seemed familiar. I then saw myself looking at the miles of fire from a window in the cellar from an unknown place. I was older, and crying.

I woke up a few hours later, and I was frightened. I had seen the future through that dream. Ethan and his girl had looked the same as I had seen them last. I had no idea why the town was in ruins, but I was scared.

There was one thing that I knew for sure from that dream. My powers had awakened.


I have no excuses. Sorry for it being short. It is late at night, and I am tired. Goodnight and please review!-Del
