Chapter 8: Warning
Just then, they heard an earsplitting scream.
Shane stiffened and made a move to run to Claire's room.
"Michael?" Eve called from upstairs, "How much did you like the vase in the hall?"
"Why…?"
"Uuummmm…. Where's the broom…?"
Shane rolled his eyes. Eve, Eve, Eve…
Again, they heard a cold, bloody murder scream.
"Eve!" called Michael, "What did you break this time?!"
"That wasn't me!" Eve called back.
Shane's eyes widened in horror. He and Michael ran upstairs to Claire's room.
They found Claire lying on her back on the floor, her eyes wide; terrified. Frank Collins was standing over her with the silver cross that Claire had pinned up on the wall in his hand, pointing it at her.
"My, my," said Shane's dad, "Shane, you really don't protect your bloodsucker all that well, do you?"
"Step away from her!" Shane screamed.
"How'd he even get in?" asked Michael, "Only vampires can get in here."
"The window was open," said Mr. Collins.
Shane grabbed the cross, but Frank pushed it towards Shane, stabbing his arm. The cross was super sharp. A long, blood-dripping cut showed on Shane's arm. It began gushing blood. Claire's pupils became specks in her eyes. Her face was twisted in agony.
"Shit," Shane muttered.
Michael grabbed Claire and helped hold her back from attacking. "Shane!" he yelled, "Get your god damned father out of here!"
Shane nodded. "Eve! Come help!"
Eve was standing in a corner, near tears from being terrified. She nodded, snapped out of it, and grabbed one of Frank's arms as Shane did the same to the other arm. Frank barley fought back. He even almost chucked…
That is until Eve and Shane began to throw him back out the window. He didn't have much time to struggle. "That was just a warning! I'll be back! For both of you bloodsuckers!"
Eve took Shane into the bathroom and bandaged him up. Claire was fine after a few minutes.
"You did hear him, right, Claire?" he asked, "He's gonna be back. For you. And for Michael."
"Yeah. I heard him," she replied.
"Good. So you know why I won't be letting you out of my sight."
