Hey guys!
Well I have been writing non-stop to get this chapter out to you all… I hope you all like it. Things are starting to pick up in pace… fingers crossed that it isn't confusing or anything.
Let me know what you guys think of it.
Cheers, Ash.

Last time: The two laughed as James grabbed the Snickers Bar and Kris opened her packet. She looked at James and could have sworn she saw something pass over his face.

The young man stood nervously at the entrance of the room, glancing at his leader who was calmly sitting at his desk. "Sir, I am in no way questioning your tactics…. The clan and I were just wondering … uh… they were wondering… why we haven't sent in a second attack"
Scott leaned forward smirking, he was amused by the fear radiating off the boy in front of him. "Tracy was unsuccessful in capturing Kristen; only just escaping with her life… other than myself Tracy is the strongest of this clan."
The boy nodded, trying to hide the panic he felt from his master's calmness in the situation.
"Since she failed to bring Kristen back, I will have to use ulterior means to capture her"
"I…If you don't mi… mind me asking sir, what is our next move?"
Scott laughed leaning back in his chair, spinning his back to the boy.
"We don't have to move at all… the boys are coming to us. When we have them, Kristen will follow."

The three boys stood around the back of the impala looking over a scattered pile of maps and sheets of information.
"Scott lives in a log house located here" Lee pointed to the map. "Just outside the western border of the forest and east of the lake."
"How do you know that that's where he'll be?" Sam asked, already nervous about the plan.
"Vampires cling on to their human dreams and turn them into obsessions, Kristen has always wanted a house by the lake and Scott promised her that he'd one day build it for her. She always laughed it off saying that it would cost too much and that they should wait a few more years before they start talking about their future like that… Scott was a great guy… and really loved my sister, but he was a little clingy and, even before he was turned, a little over the top."
"Psycho" Dean mumbled.
"So naturally when I heard that a log house had been built by the lake after Scott was turned, I had to check it out. I found that Scott was living at the place and decided not to shake the nest until we were prepared enough to take them all down. But now that we are ready to attack them… this is where they'll be."

Scott looked at the group before him."Lee knows that I live here, he has for years. This is where they will attack. They just won't know that we'll be waiting for them." He smiled at his followers. "They will come straight to us."
0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0
"So we have the power of surprise… but how will we successfully attack six vampires when last time we couldn't take down one?" Dean too was nervous, but he hoped that it came out as eagerness to hunt rather than eagerness to get the hell out of there.
"Last time we didn't know what we were coming into, this time we have had plenty of time to get you two clued up on vampire history and weaknesses. We don't just have the advantage of surprise; we know exactly where they are."
Sam furrowed his brow. "Exactly? We won't know how many there are ... or where they are in the house ... or…"
"Calm down Sam" Lee smiled. "You forget that you're with me… Fuses can sense energies right?" Sam nodded. "That means I can sense life forces, so I'll be able to tell you exactly how many there are and where they are in the house. We won't be going in blind"
0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0
"They'll be coming in completely blind. Lee thinks that he can pinpoint each of us by the life force we give off. As you all should know… we have a distinct life-force signature." Scott stood up and paced the room, letting his clan know his great plan. "Because we are neither living nor dead, we have a very weak life force. There is only one other thing like it… Freshly dead bodies. The warmth in the dead bodies gives off the exact same pattern as our vampire side. We'll have to be quick, and time it exactly right… but if we pull it off, Lee will think he's leading them in to a house with several vampires. When he finds the bodies, we'll all attack.
0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0
Sam was feeling better about the plan, Lee had done a lot of planning and it seemed that if there was a time to do this, it was now.
"None of the vampires will be expecting us… there should only be about six of them; Scott, Tracy and four servants or friends. When I've confirmed the numbers we'll attack" Dean and Sam nodded their heads and tucking their guns into the back of their pants.
0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0
"We'll leave a small number of bodies in the house, that way, they will be expecting a small number of us… when we come out of the woods we'll completely outnumber what they were prepared for. Make sure Lee is covered, he is the biggest threat, he knows a lot about our kind and can turn up the heat if too strong."000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
The three boys stalked through the forest, eyes alert and bodies tense with the promise of a fight. As the trees thinned out, they came upon a house made of thick logs. The porch was dimly lit and a ribbon of smoke rose from the chimney.
"They're home" Lee whispered "five of them"
Sam sighed; this might work out just how they had planned.
"Now we just have to find the best way in"
Dean looked at the boys on either side of him and smirked. "Little pig, little pig, let me in" Sam shot him an unimpressed look and Dean chuckled to himself while lee looked at the house trying not to lose his composure.
Lee softly cleared his throat. "If we go up the back entrance we should be able to block each of their exits."
The three nodded in agreement and Lee led the way, Dean pushing in front of his brother then looking back over his shoulder smiling innocently. Sam shook his head and moved forward following the others who were now silent and ready for a quick fight.
They entered the house guns out. Dean used his head to indicate that they should split up and each of them took their own door.
Dean sauntered down the corridor and turned quickly into the lounge gun held high. What lay before him made bile rise into his throat. Instead of the vampire he had been expecting, he found a woman lying in her own blood, the contents of her stomach oozing onto the rug. He took a step back his mind exploring how their plan had gone wrong. Just when he thought he had recovered from the shock, she turned her head to him and through his tears; he saw the life leave her eyes. Sam's panicked voice brought dean's thoughts back to the situation at hand; he turned and moved to find the others when he felt a hot, sharp pain knock him forward onto his knees. He put his hand on the back of his head and as he stared at the blood now on his hand, his body fell to the floor unconscious.

James sat on the couch watching Kristen check her phone every minute. She didn't know it, but she was tapping her fingers on the hard table next to her and it was driving James insane.
"Kris, he'll call you when he can… you're going to put a dent in my coffee table." She looked at him in thought.
"What?… oh sorry" she placed her hands in her lap and he smiled at her.
"He'll be fine" James soothed.
She knew he was probably right but she couldn't help but worry. He said he would call her as soon as he got there and it had been too long… what if something had happened?
