Hey Finally getting to update this, house has been getting remodled so it's been chaotic here. Just got done re, re fixing this chapter. So sorry for the long wait. So I hope you enjoy the continuation of my little tale.

Disclaimer: As always I don't own The Lost Boys

Darkness had fallen over Santa Carla and Raven began to stir. She felt a strong arm tossed across her bare waist shifting her head she saw David's sleeping form behind her. Turning she cuddled into him nuzzling her head into the hollow of his neck. David pulled her closer.

"You know if you don't let me go I won't be able to get dressed."

"That's bad how, exactly?" Raven smacked him playfully on his bare, cool chest before she sat up and wrapped the sheet around her.

"Where do you think your going?"

"Unlike you, the one outfit look doesn't work well on me." David dressed and walked over to the hatch pulling it open. Raven gathered the clothes David had given her, knelt at the edge and peaked her head out from the hatch, she looked around and seeing that the coast was clear and made a mad dash for her room.

Inside she reached for her bag, pulled out a pair of panties and a bra and began getting dressed. Walking over to her closet she pulled a pair of black leather pants and black heel boots. She pulled them on and walked over to her dresser reaching in she pulled out her favorite black t-shirt with The Doors logo and Jim Morrison singing on it. She had it for years, it was a bit big on her but she didn't mind.

Once she was finished she tossed a few more things in her bag slung it over her shoulder and walked into the living room where David had been waiting with her friends. They were all sitting around the television watching a news report. Letting the bag drop next to the chair she slid into David's lap.

"We interrupt our story for a breaking news report. Yet another body had been found drained of blood and mangled so terribly, no identification could be made other than it was a male. This is one of several bodies that have turned up over the course of the last month. Police believe this may be the work of a serial killer and are urging people not to be out alone at night. If anyone has any information they are urged to call their local police department."

David and Raven exchanged a look. This was the second time they had heard a report like that and David still hadn't told Raven about the body at the movies in the cemetery that night.

"Oh man, that's messed up."

"You think that's bad we were walking the boardwalk one night and heard about a pair, one was found out behind a local grocery store. The second was found in the alley way between the local arcade and pizza parlor. The body was found lying on the floor next to its own head. Both were mangled and drained like that one."

"I know Santa Carla is dangerous but this is nuts." Edge added.

"Why would anyone drain the blood though?" Morgana finished her question.

You can't let them know Raven.

I really didn't have an intention on it. Plus they wouldn't believe me if I told them.

She hadn't told her friends what had happened or what she was and as much as she loved them she wasn't about to. She got up from David's lap and picked up her bag.

"Well it's been fun, but it's time for us to leave."

"Leave, why are you leaving?"

"I'm not leaving, leaving Edge. I'm going to be staying at David's for a few days. You guys can manage the fort by yourselves. I thought I told you guys this last night."

She and David began heading for the door. "Oh and one more thing. Don't let Sabin near anything that would result in my house not being here when I return." They walked out of the house without so much as another word.

Down on the boardwalk David and Raven walked through the thick of the crowd among the games and rides the noise began to hurt Raven's ears and the lights hurt her eyes, she leaned into David's shoulder.

"It bothers me."

"It will get easier. I promise."

He wrapped his arm around her waist and led her out to the boardwalk where the noise and lights were less. As they walked along Raven felt someone bump into her shoulder. She looked up noticing the same red haired boy she had run into in the parking lot the night Cody and Angel had hung out with her. She turned back and kept walking beside David.

Hey sis where's our fearless leader.

Sorry Angel he's busy right now but if you leave a message I'll make sure he gets it when I 'm ready to give it to him..

Where have you two been?

Long story, Codes. Short version ran into ex, took care of problem, stayed at my place for the night, we'll be home later boys. Do you miss us that much?

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing David, the chuckle brothers are worried about us. They miss us something awful." David shook his head as he pulled her closer and led her past the comic store. As they walked past Edgar stuck his head out the door. David turned and smirked .

A few minutes later David and Raven had arrived in a seedier part of the boardwalk. As they walked along Raven would get looks and cat calls from an occasional guy passing by. David let out a low growl griping her tightly. Raven placed a hand on his chest.

Are you jealous? There's no need to be jealous David. Reaching up she pulled him closer and gave him a quick kiss. "I'm getting hungry, let's eat."

He smiled down at her. "That's my girl." David led her among the crowds shuffling in and out of the various bars and shops. David let his arm slip from her waist and standing behind her, placed both his hands on her shoulders as they walked along.

Leaning forward, he whispered in her ear. "Take a close look at the crowd. Look for someone you like."

"What?"

"Just take your time and look."

He felt her shoulders rise and fall as she sighed. He didn't need to look to know she was doing as he had said. Raven stared out at the people. Nothing seemed to catch her attention. She really had no idea why David had picked now to have a Mr. Miyagi moment with her. Looking into the sea of endless faces that were coming and going didn't help. Everything seemed to blend a mass of seemingly endless, plain, ordinary faces. She kept scanning the faces then suddenly did a double take.

"David, there." He looked and noticed a young couple walking their way.

"What do you want?"

"Them."

He bent down and kissed the top of her head. " That's what I love about this place, You ask, and then you get. Stay here a minute."

Raven watched as David walked up to the couple and began talking to them. Soon he had led the man a bit away from where Raven stood waiting in the shadows. David was half listening as the man talked to him. He was more concerned about Raven, yes she had fed and was now a vampire but she had never hunted before. David turned his attention back to the man. He change his features and attacked the man. The mans short scream was cut off by David ripping into his throat.

The woman that was with the man soon came looking for him, as she turned the corner she saw David in his vampire form tearing apart her boyfriend. She let out a scream, David looked up as she began to run. He dropped the mans body and was following her when he turned the corner he saw Raven step out of the shadows.

The woman ran crying right into her. Raven put her arms out to stop the woman. "What's wrong?" She asked in the most angelic voice she could muster.

"There's a monster. He . . . my boyfriend. . . we have to leave... NOW!" They girl was in hysterics trying to convince Raven to leave. She began tugging Raven's hand dragging her through the streets. David followed silently behind.

"No, not that way, I know a better way. Follow me." Raven grabbed the woman and pulled her along into an abandoned alley.

"I think we lost him, now can you tell me what happened?"

"My boyfriend Jack and I were sightseeing and we got lost. We were roaming the streets when this blond man came up and said he could help us. He and Jack walked away, after a while I went to look for them and this thing was behind a building with Jack. It … it had these evil yellow eyes, and these teeth and claws. I, I've never seen anything like it . It was hideous."

"It's okay, it's okay." She hugged the girl. "Did it look anything like this?" She asked as she vamped out. The girl looked up in horror and went to run, Raven was on her before she had a chance to get far. The woman was struggling against Raven causing her to tighten her grip as she drank. The woman's struggling began to slow and she began going limp. Raven let her go once she had drained her.

Clapping, David stepped out from behind the shadows. "Bravo princess, bravo." he walked over to her stepping over the body of the woman. "Look at you, not a drop spilled." He said tapping her on her nose with a gloved hand. "Who knows, one day you might even be a more cunning and lethal killer than me. Now let's go put our toys away and go home."

Raven had been looking around the cave for the last hour now. She had found one of Dwayne's books laying in a corner of the cave, picking it up she walked over to David, sitting beside him in his chair she tucked her legs beneath her.

"Do you mind if I read this?" She didn't know who it had belonged to, he wasn't ready to tell her about that part yet. He just looked down quickly and said yes.

About half an hour later Cody and Angel returned. Raven looked up from the book she was now a quarter of the way through. "Gods what in the blue hell happened to the two of you?"

"We were attacked."

"By who?"

"We don't know there was more than one. It was a big group. We were feeding, when we were done they came out of nowhere They were pretty strong."

"Haven't I taught you better? " David said anger rising in his voice. Raven felt bad for the boys and began to look for stuff to clean the boys up a bit.

"Don't you two think? Always be aware of whats going on, are you trying to end up dead!"

"David. . ." Raven turned to him but let the rest of her comment die. She saw hurt in his eyes more than anger.

"Do you know what they looked like?" Raven asked Cody as she sat him on the corner of the fountain and began to clean him up a bit. Cody did his best to describe what they had looked like.

"There was only one girl, she looked like a gypsy. Then a surfer guy, Baggy floral print board shorts."

"He was blond?" Raven asked.

"Yeah."

"One looked like a punk rocker and the other was a red head with green eyes right?" She asked again.

"Yeah how did you know?" Angel asked.

"Remember the night you guys came and got me from work. They stopped me as I was walking home. They warned me not to hang out with you all. I basically told them go screw themselves and left. I know exactly who they are."

"They. . ."

"David it's fine. It was the night you dubbed Sabin pumpkin ass. They didn't hurt me. They had someone else with them. I don't know who he was but he called them his children. I didn't see the man." David was visibly angry. She walked over to him sat in his lap and whispered in his ear. "We'll deal with it. Please, calm down love."

The Next Night

David, Raven and the others had split up looking for the group that had attacked the boys. Walking along the boardwalk Cody had spotted someone walking along the beach. He didn't think much of it until he spotted one of the people that had attacked making their way over. He hopped the railing and made a mad dash to catch up to the person walking along the beach. He managed to make it there just before the other person did.

"Hey, it's kinda dangerous to walk alone out here."

The woman he had caught up with looked up at him. It was Morgana. "Your Cody right? Your one of David's friends."

Cody rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly. "Yeah. That's me. Hey listen, you really shouldn't be here alone. Let me at least walk with you."

"Sure, I'd like that, that would be nice." She wrapped her arm in his and they began walking. He brought her up to the boardwalk and through the thick crowd.

David had been stalking along the boardwalk for a good half hour and hadn't noticed anyone. He walked along noticing a pair of girls walking his way. He walked up next to them began chatting them up for a bit before he separated them from the crowd and fed on them.

Angel was on the other side of town. His luck was no better than anyone else. He hadn't noticed anyone. He walked into a nearby bar and got himself a drink. As he sat drinking his beer a woman came up and slid onto the stool next to him.

"Hey."

He looked up and took her in. She was a short thing no taller than five foot one. She had dark long hair,green eyes and wore heavy makeup. She definitely wasn't his type but it was a long night and he was getting hungry so he decided to have a bit of fun with her.

"Hey, I haven't seen you here before." He signaled for the bartender and he came over with two drinks. Angel handed one over to the woman.

"I just moved here recently."

"Got any family here?"

"No, none."

"That's a shame, maybe I can show you around town."

They sat talking and had a few more drinks before Angel got up and pulled the girl out of the bar along with him. That was the last time she was ever seen again.

The breeze blew off the water passed the speakers and amps near the stage. The music vibrated the amp as Raven looked over the crowd below. That's when she saw them. A few of the people were walking away with the red hared boy and the girl.

David I found them. I'm going to follow them.

Raven turned and jumped down off the amp landing on her feet. She took off and began walking through the crowd. She shadowed them through town to a spot near an old condemned house. Raven was about to tell David where they were suddenly she felt a hand grab her shoulder. She spun around and came face to face with David.

"God's don't do that to me." She hissed, trying to keep her voice at a whisper. He smirked, suddenly they heard a scream. They both turned and looked. Raven and David watched as they saw the red head and the girl feed and decimate the couple they had dragged to that house.

They're like us!? That explains a hell of a lot.

Soon more of the group had come and joined the others as they reduced the bodies to nothing. David gritted his teeth and was about to rush out and confront them. Raven put a hand on his arm.

"Are you insane? They outnumber us and we don't know where the boys are."

"I'm not just going to sit here and do nothing!"

"David think, please. We know who and what they are now. Now we know how to stop them." David looked at her, he knew she was right. He took her and brought her back to the boardwalk.

Back home everyone we have things to discuss.

On the way man.

Be there in a bit I'm kinda busy.

Busy? Cody what are you doing? Your never busy.

I'll be there don't worry sis.

"Hey you all right?" Morgana asked shaking Cody's arm.

"Yeah, Fine. Come on, I'll take you home." He led her to the bike and helped her on. Soon as she was behind him she wrapped her arms around his waist. He sped off to the apartment, once he got her home she hopped off the bike.

Morgana was about to walk through the front door when Cody grabbed her by the shoulder and turned her to face him. Morgana was worried she didn't know what to expect when suddenly Cody grabbed her face and kissed her. Morgana was breathless when he pulled away from her.

"I . . . I" He put a finger to her lips before she could finish her sentence.

"You have to promise me something. Never let anyone in unless it's me, Raven, David, or Angel understand."

"What?"

"You have to trust me on this. I want to keep you safe."

"Safe from what?"

"I can't explain now. Just promise me, and don't go out alone."

"I . . ." she looked at him and thought about it for a second. "yes, all right." He smiled before kissing her again. She blushed before walking through her door.

"Okay, spill what happened to you?" Sabin asked from his spot near the window.

"I. . . have no idea what your talking about."

"You have the same stupid look on your face just like when I'd mention David to Raven."

Morgana blushed again pushing past Sabin. "Oh can it pumpkin ass!"

"You know it's the truth!" he shouted as he heard the bedroom door slam.

The next night.

Raven sat sprawled out on one of the couches book in hand as David sat brooding in his chair. Angel came bounding out from the back of the cave.

"Anyone see Cody?" No one answered. "Gee don't all answer at once." He threw a wadded up paper at Raven's head.

"Really, man? He isn't here. He was gone before we got up." She said as she threw the paper back at him while she walked over to David.

What's going on in that devious head of yours? David looked up to see Raven now in his lap.

Nothing that you need to worry yourself about princess.

"Let's go you two. I need a change of scenery." Minutes later the three were headed to the boardwalk.

Morgana sat in Raven's apartment thumbing through one of her Anne Rice books when she heard a tap at the window. She looked up shook her head and continued reading when she heard another tap like something hitting the window. She went back to reading when a third time she heard something hit the window. This time she got up and looked out the window. Down on the Street Cody was about to chuck another rock up.

"What are you doing?"

"Took you long enough. Come for a ride!"

"Okay, give me a minute." A few minutes later she was ready and about to head out the door.

"And where are you going at this hour young lady!"

"Shut it Sabin. I'm going out."

"We've established that. Where are you going?"

"I don't know yet. I'm just going out for a ride with a friend Edge."

"Would this friend be Cooooody?!" Sabin said teasingly batting his eyelashes and making a lovey dovey face as he did.

"Ugh, you two are impossible!" She said as she walked to the door.

"Be home by ten or you are grounded for a week young lady." Morgana shook her head and walked out the door.

Down on the street Cody sat on his bike tapping his foot impatiently.

Hey pain in the ass where you at?We're heading to the boardwalk.

Busy dip shit, why are you writing a book?

Cody suddenly heard Raven's laugh. Maybe we are and maybe we aren't. You've been awful busy lately. Since when are you Mr. popular?

Cody mentally flipped her off.Stop being so damn nosy you two.

Well, that was a bit rude. Your lucky I like you or I'd find you and kick your ass!

Morgana finally joined him she slipped on the back of the bike and put her arms around his waist jarring him from his riveting conversation he was having with Angel and Raven.

"Ready to go?"

"You bet."

Down on the boardwalk Angel, David and Raven stood among the crowd watching the band of the week. David lit a cigarette as Raven and Angel danced to the music. She bounces over to him. "Come on, dance!" She said tugging at his free arm. He shook his head as he let a stream of smoke escape his lips. "Ugh, buzz kill!" She pouted and walked over to to Angel.

A smirk began to grow on David's lips as he watched Raven sway back and forth to the music suddenly something caught his attention.

Be right back princess.

Don't stay away too long. . . You owe me a dance! She heard him chuckle as he disappeared into the crowd. After a while Raven grabbed Angel and pulled him away from the band.

"Hey what was that for. I was jamming!"

"Okay, if you say so, but that's not what it looked like to me. Now come on I'm bored. Entertain me!"

Down at Sal's the place was packed for the dinner rush. Tourist's and regulars filled the tables and booths. At one table near the window Morgana sat across from Cody. She peeked over the top of her menu at him watching as his blue eyes lit up when he found the song he was looking for on the mini jukebox. She giggled and blushed looking down quickly when he turned to face her.

"What's so funny?"

"Nothing."

"Come on you laughed. Something had to be funny."

"It's just that you looked cute when you found the song you wanted. You looked like a kid at Christmas that just got the toy they begged for all year. It was cute." She blushed again.

"Hey doll, what'll it be?"

"Hey Ruby. Can we get a couple of burgers and fries."

"Sure thing. How you want 'em?"

"I want mine well. Cody how do you want yours?"

"Rare." Ruby took off and put the order in.

Cody and Morgana talked about everything they could think of while they were waiting for the food. Ruby had brought over a plate of appetizers because the kitchen was a bit backed up from the big crowd. Outside Angel and Raven were making their way along the boardwalk. Angel was walking over to some game when Raven tugged at his arm.

"Well, well I think I found out what our little Cody has been so busy with lately." She said turning Angel to face the window of the diner.

"We've got to screw with them!"

"Ya think?!" She whacked him in the head playfully. "So what's the plan?" They sat in a railing across from the diner scheming while the unsuspecting couple sat inside.

"I can't believe you're going to eat that!"

"What's wrong with it?" Cody asked taking a bite sending bloody juice running down his hand.

"I just don't see how you can eat something like that. It's so rare I'm surprised it doesn't moo when you poke it."

Cody laughed hysterically. "Your one to talk? Your food is one step away from being shoe leather."

They suddenly turned their attention to the window in front of them when they heard squeaking. Outside Raven was breathing on the window causing it to fog, as she did so she wrote out the word awwwww. Next to her Angel was making faces on the glass while singing.

"Cody and Morgana sitting in a tree Kissssing."

"Angel, that's too many SSS ."

"Not if they're doing it for a long time!"

You two are so Dead!

So this is what you've been so busy with big brother? Why didn't you tell us?

Yeah.

Oh shut it Angel you would have taunted him ten times as bad if you knew.

That's very true.

Morgana blushed as Angel sang his song.

"Ignore them they'll get whats coming to them later." Cody said reaching over and holding Morgana's hand.

Outside Rave let out a loud awwww as she grabbed Angels hand mocking the couple. Cody flipped them off.

Don't you two have something better to do with your night!

Okay we can take a hint, no need to get so testy big brother. Raven began to walk away.

Fine we were just havin' a little fun. Don't do anything we wouldn't do. Angel said wiggling his eyebrows as he turned to follow Raven. She was a few feet ahead of him scanning the crowd, he was just about to catch up with her when a pretty girl walked past and caught his attention.

Hey birdy. I'll catch up with you in a while I just found my lunch.

Yeah, I guess great minds think alike, I'm a bit peckish myself. Meet up at the carousel.

Raven walked the boardwalk scanning the crowd just like David had taught her when she walked past the comic store.

"Hey," Raven didn't hear him at first. "hey!" this time Raven turned around. Edgar stood at the door of the comic shop waving her down. She let out a low growl because he had interrupted her hunt.

"What is it?"

"I figured you might be interested in this. It just came in." Edgar waved the latest copy of the Supernatural comic in her face.

She didn't know what to say. He remembered. She wasn't sure if she should go in or not. "Uh, thanks. She said taking the comic in her hand.

"Notice anything strange yet." He said from behind the counter.

"Strange? Like what?"

"About your friend."

"I have a lot of friends Edgar, which one?" She asked as she was thumbing through a rack of comics.

"David." Edgar replied rather bitterly. Raven almost dropped the comic she was flipping through in surprise.

"No, there's nothing odd about David." She was going to tell him David was more than her friend but she thought better of it. If you ask me, it's those other kids and that guy in the suit that have been hanging around lately that are weird."

"What kids, what guy?"

"I don't know many of their names I just know what they look like." She began describing them to Edgar. When she was done she turned to him and put some money on the counter. "I should be going." She took her comic and headed out the door.

In the meantime Cody had brought Morgana home.

"Sorry about those two." Cody said rubbing the back of his neck a little embarrassed.

"Oh it's okay. They were only having fun. To tell you the truth if David wasn't so scary I'd probably do the same to her."

Cody walked up to her wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her in for a kiss. "You know, he isn't so bad once you get to know him."

She couldn't think of anything, her head was still reeling from the kiss. She was about to walk in the door when she turned back and ran to Cody pulling him to her for a long passionate kiss. She soon walked into the apartment and Cody headed back to the boardwalk.

Aurora had finally fed and disposed of the body. She walked along the boardwalk for a while before the noise and lights began to bother her. Hopping a railing she landed in the sand below on all fours like a cat with a soft thud.

The breeze blew her long hair around her face, she didn't mind. Since she had come to be with David and the boys she came to appreciate times like this. Just herself and her thoughts. She loved her new pack mates, brood, call them what you will but every now and then everyone needs some time to themselves. She slowly walked along the beach when she felt a presence behind her.

"Who ever the hell you are you had better show yourself I don't have time for this!" She shouted as she kept walking.

"Raven. Slow down. Wait."

"Crap." She mumbled to herself as Joseph caught up with her. "What Joseph, I have nothing to say to you."

"Then just hear me out."

"I did once before and you threatened me and David. Why should I listen now?"

Joseph grabbed her by her wrist. Pulling her to face him. "You should really reconsider. I have these new friends since I left and they are so much better than Cody David and Angel. Come with me. Join us."

Raven pulled her wrist from his grip. "Joseph I told you. We've been over this."

"I don't understand. Your life could be a thousand times better with us. When we control Santa Carla everything will be perfect. Anyone who stands in the way is going to fall. I want you by my side so you won't suffer that fate."

"Are you high? What the hell are you talking about? I think you've finally had a brain snap!" Raven began to walk away. Joseph began to grow angry grabbing her and throwing her down to the sand.

"Why must you make me do things the hard way?" He said as he pulled her up off the ground by her hair. "You see what your making me do. I love you and you won't listen. Now look."

he slapped her across the face sending her reeling backwards. Raven landed in the sand again with a thud. Her hair covered her face, she felt her face change to her vampire form. She turned back to her human form just as Joseph bent to pick her up again. Raven kicked his leg out from under him knocking him on his back.

"Love? You call THIS love! I hate to tell you but this is the furthest thing from love. If you loved me you'd leave me be. I've been in a relationship like that and I sure as hell will NEVER do that again."

She managed to scramble to her feet suddenly Joseph grabbed her by the arms lifted her off the ground and flung her into one of the legs of the pier. Raven's head hit hard causing her to begin bleeding. She lay there trying to form a plan as to how she was going to get out of this.

From where he had thrown her, Joseph saw that she wasn't moving and began regretting his actions. He ran over to her. Raven automatically leapt up and slapped Joseph in the face. Her nails leaving four deep cuts.

"You bitch!"

"You started this!" She said. Not to far from her sat a shattered piece of wood from where Joseph had thrown her into the pier. She closed her eyes for a minute concentrating and the piece of wood came flying at him stabbing him in the side. Joseph let out a howl of pain. Raven took this as an opportunity to run.

Joseph pulled the piece of wood from his side and took to the air. He soon found Raven and came down landing on her back. He lifted her by the arm forcefully dislocating it. She screamed with her good had she clawed at his face trying to get him to let go. She suddenly stopped struggling. Joseph looked down at her wondering what had happened. She looked up at him with rage in her eyes.

I told you Joseph. I'm happy I like my life. I'm happy with my friends, I like David. . . no. I LOVE David, and I will NEVER be with you!" She said as she put a hand to his chest and using her power sent him flying backward across the beach till he crashed into the railing separating the boardwalk from the sand.

Joseph came around from the force of the blow after a few minutes and took off. Raven was bleeding horribly and her arm was killing her. The last bit of her energy she had used on that burst that sent Joseph flying across the beach. She collapsed in the sand. Just before she closed her eyes and the world went black around her she managed to get out one message.

David, help!

Minutes later David and the boys were on the beach. David spotted Raven on the beach the blood drying on her skin, he began trying to heal her wounds. Slowly Raven began to open her eyes as the others looked on.

"We have to get her home."

"David." Raven said just above a whisper.

"Don't talk princess."

"Joseph." She whispered again before becoming silent.

Joseph did this. He's probably worse off than me. I beat his ass pretty bad.

David smirked at her before he picked her up.

Hold on Raven. We're going home now. He turned to Angel and Cody take the bikes home. He soon jumped with Raven and was flying as fast as he could back to the cave.

He'll pay. I swear to God I'll rip him apart slowly. He is going to wish he never laid a hand on you.

Well that's it for this chapter.

I'll also have an update up soon for my story Fallen Angel and I'll be putting up the first chapter of my third Lost Boys story featuring Paul. Did I just hear a collective swoon from all the Paul fans out there?
