Chapter Nine: Plan

He was fast, turned to a blur as he pushed me off the chandlier and down into the falls. I landed with a crash. Vlad's eyes started to mist over as he saw Vlas walk closer to me and grab me by my sweater and pull me up.

" You caused enough trouble, witch" He bared his fangs as he empisized his sentence.

My eyes widened as I watched him ring his arms around my neck and begin to strangle me, I coughed and gagged as I turned an eye to Vlad who seemed to glare at him.

I growled a low growl in my throat dispite that I couldn't breathe, my eyes flashed again and my amulet grew brighter then I ever saw or felt before. Vlas' eyes widened.

" Stay Away from me and Vlad..." I growled as I watched Vlad's eyes grow in amazement, Vlas began to slowly slink away, though he tried not to show it. All the other vampires were hushed and dazed as they built a ring around us. Vlas chuckled his monotone laugh and snarled.

" Foolish girl you possess the book but yet know no spells"

I gulped he was right, I only looked never memorized them right away. My power started to shrink a little as I stared at Vikas, his face however was determined.

" Just like a vampire, power flows through your mind and can be unleashed in anyway you direct it, the witches wrote theirs down while vampires used their minds, there is no difference" Vikas announced to me as Vlas creepily smiled as he charged towards me. I closed my eyes and concentred.

There it was, the power spurting like a fountian in front of me, I ran my hand threw it. Nice and cold, then there was Vlas face, grabbing Vlad and starting to tear him limb from limb. Vikas watching his lovely Gia's head get cut off by one of her own, instead of rolling by Vikas feet, her head rolled to me.

Her eyes stared at me and her mouth bubbled with blood as she spoke.

" Ne Tyacol Felie!"

I opened my eyes and saw I was floating in the air, surrounded by the blue mist that I saw in my mind, everyone down below was staring in complete awe many with their mouths agape. And Vlas, still snarling and Vlad, eyes widened with a huge smile on his face.

I watched as Vlas started to come up towards me, as fast as he could. I narrowed my eyes and held out a hand as it the mist swirled around my hands and around my Amulet. I showed my teeth which know I knew they were fangs for some reason. I timed it just right and chanted at the top of my lungs.

" Ne Tyacol Felie!"

The mist around me swirled around in a huge wind before it turned into a dagger and shot right threw Vlas' chest, not killing him but instead knocking him into the wall. His body smashed against the wall causing the wall to start cracking and chipping. I slowly concentred and pushed my body downwards. As soon as my feet touched bottom, the power stopped.

I opened my eyes and stared at Vlas, who was knocked unconcious. Everyone turned to me and gasped. Even Vikas seemed to stare unsure of me, instead he walked closer and touched my chin and tilted my head to look at him, his eyes full of tear.

" Where did you learn Gia's wind dagger spell? That wasn't written in the book that was her only spell"

" She appeared to me and told me of the spell" I informed him as he let go and turned back to Vlas who was still passed out and many vampires surrounding him.

" This isn't good Vikas, she just put out Vlas the head accountaint of Stokerton Council, D'Ablo must be hot on our trail"

My Amulet glew a bit at his name as well my teeth tingled.

" What should we do it isn't safe here anymore then" Vlad panicked as he instivictly grabbed me and held me close. I blushed a little at him.

" Vladimir is right, Miss. Carla isn't safe here anymore, perhaps you should take her home and think of a place to hide out for a while" Otis nodded and then motioned to Vlad. Vlad grabbed my hand and took me to our room.

" Here" He threw my luggage bag to me and to my luck, I caught it. He started packing stuff as fast as he could, and in between he would throw some of my stuff into my bag too. I threw the bangs out of my eyes as I picked up little things.

" Whats the plan?" I asked. Vlad looked at me and motioned for one second before he came up.

" Otis and I are talking about it, were going back to my old house to device a plan and then were going to a place where a vampire will never wanna enter" He smiled as he grabbed his and my bag and walked out where we met Otis and Vikas.

" I'm sorry that your training got stopped short Mahlyenki Dyavol," Vlad put a hand up and shook his head, " It's quite alright Vikas" Vikas nodded and turned to face me, his eyes twinkled as he smiled and squeezed my shoulder.

" And you, Miss. Carla I'm glad I was in your present"

" Please, call me Hayley"

Vlad walked me to my house where I saw the house was dark and empty, there was still no sign of Mom and Navin and I knew they wouldn't be back for another 2 weeks. I looked up and saw something taped to my door, it was a yellow file filled with what I guess photographs. Curiously, I took off the file and looked inside.

A bunch of blurry photographs were inside as well as a folded looseleaf note.

Eddie. I scowled and groaned as I ripped the file and didn't bother to look at the note. Probably some babble about how Vlad was a monster. I walked inside and turned on the heat immedaltly, it sure got cold quickly.

I walked up to my room and put all my stuff away. I looked from my dresser and saw my cell phone. I sighed as I had guilty feelings of Markus and felt obliged to check, as suspected no texts from him. I sighed but was stopped short by Vlad who stood in the door way.

" You better bring some cool things, Otis is thinking we head to the Bahamas"

" Why there? I thought vampires can't go in sunlight?" I asked as I grabbed a shaw and slipped it in my case. He smirked than began.

" Well other vampires can't, but I can and besides I'll wear sunblock like I always do" I nodded as I grabbed some other clothing and watched as Vlad looked around my room and noted things carefully.

We both left later and down towards an old grey house with a tower, Vlad looked miserable as he entered, he lead me into the living room where Otis was sitting with his legs crossed.

" Ok heres the plan you and Vlad are going down to the Bahamas to hide out while Vikas looks around Siberia and I'm staying her to watch Stokerton"

" Wait I thought you were coming with us Otis" Vlad remarked as he shrugged an eyebrow.

Otis shook his head, " I have to stay here and keep watch on the Stokerton Council"

" Ok" Vlad didn't sound dissapointed, Otis looked at me.

" You'll stay here tonight Hayley, your flight leaves in the morning" Otis smiled at me but then darkly smirked at Vlad.

" Oh Vlad...your gonna have to do some shopping yourself"

Vlad's face lit up and he shuffled his feet.

" I'm on it" He sighed as he walked out of the house.

" Come on Hayley, you'll sleep in Vlad's bedroom for the night K?" I nodded and followed Otis up the stairs and into a tiny little room with blue on the walls. I smiled a little as I climbed into Vlad's bed and huddled under the blankets.

As I drifted off, I heard Vlad stomp up the stairs and into the room. His breathing sounded calm as he started to strip off, his smooth silky body slid against mine and he sighed as he placed an arm around me and pressed close to me. He kissed my ear and nuzzled it.

" Night Hayley" I blushed as I snuggled closer and felt him squeeze me closer and start to putter his lips.
