Ch 10

'Are you two ready?' Coreen nodded as Kerrie handed Vicki the satchel.

'What's this?'

'Protective herbs, just incase.' Vicki went over the plan as Coreen looked around nervously.

'Coreen, what are you looking for?' Vicki asked looking around.

'Just seeing who's going in.' Kerrie shot her a look as Vicki continued. Once she finished talking she set up a recording device and Coreen put it on.

'Will you be ok on your own?'

'Yea, I can handle myself. I'm from a though family.' Kerrie said laughing.

'Lucky you, if someone takes a swing at me I'll be down for the count.' Coreen mumbled.

'No one will take a swing at yea. I have quick reflexes.'

'You two stay in sight of each other and we'll meet out her in two hours to check in.' The girls walked into the club as Vicki pulled out her phone again. She tried calling Henry but got his answering machine. Vicki sighed and called Mike again.

'Hello?' He said impatiently.

'It's me. Are you sure you can't come down here?'

'Vicki, I do have cases to take care of.'

'Coreen and Kerrie are in the club-'

'You sent them in there alone?'

'Hey, Kerrie said she could take care of herself. They aren't kids.'

'It could be dangerous. I'll be there soon.' Mike hung up his phone and grabbed his coat.

'Finally going home?' Kate asked.

'Yea, night.' He mumbled walking out the door only to be stopped by Henry.

'Took you long enough to get here.' Mike hissed.

'I changed my mind. I'm gonna handle this on my own.'

'What? Your the one who asked for my help?'

'This vampire has something to do with Christina.' Henry said as Mike crossed his arms.

'And?'

'I don't want to drag you into this. Keep an eye on Vicki and the girls.' Henry started to walk away when Mike spoke up.

'Is she really that dangerous?' Henry nodded.

'She's capable of anything, so everyone I'm close to could be at risk. Plus she has a grudge against Kerrie.'

'How does she know her?'

'I guess she had a run in with her in Boston and got on Christina's bad side.'

'Great, two blood suckers in one city.' Henry walked out the door leaving Mike staring at the wall. He shook his head and drove to meet Vicki.

Coreen went right to work talking to a few people at the bar while Kerrie walked around the club. She spotted the guy right away and made her way over to him.

'What yea have?' She asked leaning against the wall next to him.

'The usual, what yea want?'

'Nothing new?' The guy walked away as Kerrie made her way into the dance floor. Coreen was having little luck on her end. She didn't find out much so she met up with Kerrie.

'Anything?'

'Nothing strange, yet.' She muttered as she noticed a man walking towards her.

'Still in the market? I have some new pills.' He said opening his hand.

'Xanex, no thanks.' Kerrie walked over to the bar with Coreen by her side.

'How did you know that?'

'Coreen, I worked in a pharmacy for 3 years in high school. I know every type of prescription drug people abuse.' Kerrie ordered a drink as Coreen went to go talk to someone else.
