Episode 9: Oh, Brother! A helping hand at last
Amy was having a rough time for the past three days, the vampires haven't been giving her a break all night. Fighting them is one thing she has to deal with, trying to keep them at bay is a whole different subject greatly. She was going to do a secret mission tonight and she was prepared for it, overlooking everything she was waiting on Terrance to giver her a call. Something told her that this is going to be a rough fight, hearing a buzzing Amy picked up the pager quickly.
"Oh there you are Terrance, so what's the on task?" Terrance was about to look up once he finished his work.
"Oh good there you are I was getting worried about you, last night was a big dozy so expect a big encounter tonight. The elder is supposed to come back from his little trip, they are throwing him a party so there is going to be some security. Now while the family is away I want you to investigate his home, if you find anything in there that would be awesome for us. Besides we have to be one step ahead of this guy every turn, he's tricky so you wont be able to predict what he'll do. However you need to be careful while you go inside the place, he might have slayer proof his home just in case of a break in. Yet that doesn't mean we aren't sly are selves too, your brother is supposed to come back tonight so that's a good thing. I've told him everything you did for the past two weeks, now with that he might be please with your work. Now back on our task at hand here, there is no telling what he's set up for us. Well there is no time for use to wait so we better get started, once this is over we can finally get some rest for a while. Oh I forget to mention that tomorrow the first day of summer, the vampires wont be so active as they used to be. Yet you will have later missions so be prepared for that, oh and Amy look behind you now." Amy check behind her to see who it was.
It was Tracy and not a moment too soon as well, finally she was going to get a helping hand out here.
"Brother!" Tracy smiled as she gave him a good hug.
"Hey sis I see you've been taking good care of the city, I'm proud of you Amy now I've overheard Terrance so we better get going. Oh he also told me what happened three nights ago, I promise you that it will not happen again. Don't worry I've got your back this time around, D.J is going to join us shortly he gave me a good bit of help. The elder got away from us as usual, yet that doesn't mean we wont find any clues. Come let's get to the elders house for clues, besides we have a lot of work to do in that place. Trust me the last people the elder wants to see is us right now, don't worry about the other stuff we can take care of that later." Following her brother they went to search for the elder's home.
D.J came up just in time for a little assistance, once they reached the place it looked a bit quiet inside. Yet one must always be careful when dealing with an elder, they can be cunning so please do keep that in mind. Once inside the place seemed as if a family was home, being very careful they began their search. Things were going smoothly at the moment as nothing happened, however just be aware of your surroundings greatly. Once they got to the elders room they found a strange paper, it had some sort of ancient markings on it. The words weren't clear to make out at that moment, it had to be an old language that the vampires could understand as they looked. Taking a picture they sent it to Terrance to see if he could translate it, Terrance will message them when he is done with the translating. However they must be extremely careful right now, the elder might be back and he's not going to be pleased by this one bit. Quickly getting out of his chambers they secretly got out the house, well not before they got spotted by the guards.
Well it almost went off without a slight hitch indeed, yet they have to take them out before they alert the elder of them here. Now with them out of the way they could leave the place quietly, standing on the sidewalk they waited for Terrance to call back. However with the translation it might be a little while, they could do a little work with the grunts that were causing trouble around here. Although they wont be able to get rid of them all at once, at least it gives Terrance some time to finish the translation. Once they got rid of the grunts that were attacking they got together, with the pager buzzing they knew Terrance was done with the translation.
"Terrance, have you finished the translation?" Terrance was typing something before he looked up.
"Oh sorry for keeping all of you waiting out here, I was able to finish the translation and it's very dark and creepy. It mention something about a dark ritual of some kind, whatever it is I don't think it will be good for all of us. It also states something about the purple moon as well, in legends the purple moon is when the vampire's strength doubles and we will be in a lot of trouble. I've heard a lot about the purple moon from your family, that's a time they probably wont let Amy go out that time. The purple moon is said to be in two weeks, well you guys better get things done for the time being. Oh and by the way there is another place that you need to check out a few blocks down, I don't know what the place is but it's worth a look. Just be careful going to that place, there's not telling what they have planned for you. Once your done with that place you guys deserve a good nights rest, trust me I bet everyone is tired from traveling." Turning off the pager they all went to the same place.
Once they got to this mysterious spot they were very cautious, this place would give anyone the creeps if you had to go by yourself. Things weren't going as planned as they found traps that they didn't want to set off, and fighting some monsters here and there they were making progress. Once his place was cleared they could finally get back home, Tracy and Amy told their father about the purple moon.
"Oh I know about this legend very well children, although I don't like the fact that you two want to go out I can't help but to think what will happen. We have to make sure that they don't try to do anything harsh, when the purple moon comes Amy you will be doing a little experiment of your own. You wont leave the home but you will be luring the vampires here, Tracy you will have a part of this as well. We will need all of the family's help with this one, so your cousin is coming as well. I will help you all out with the preparations soon, so you two gets some rest we have a lot of work to do." Both Amy and Tracy went to their rooms.
Things are getting interesting so far in our story, yet even the purple moon will be most challenging for everyone.
