Poor Little Rich Boy – Regina Spektor
--------
Some weeks have passed without events.
"I wonder what has been up with Val lately?" Renesme asked August and Jacob.
"You mean, besides her sister dying?" August asked sarcastically.
"Yes, besides that," Renesme said.
"And besides that I killed her sister," Jacob asked full of self-guilt.
"You don't seriously think that she is still angry about that do you?" Renesme asked.
"Well…" August started, "Maybe some. She did seem pretty mad a Jake and to like her sister an awful lot."
"But she liked us better didn't she, she didn't hang around her sister," Nessie pointed out.
"Maybe that could be why she is so busy, she is sad that she spent no time with her sister who is now dead and instead spent much time with us… who are not," Jake said.
"Well…" August said with a smirk.
"You know what I mean," Jake replied.
------------------------------------------
"HI-YAW" Val exclaimed as she high kicked a demon kicking it into a devil's trap. She felt the blow as if it were to be directed at her.
She began to chant in Latin. "endsay, isthay eamonday ackbay otay erewhay itay elongsbay. Anday on'tday etlay itay omecay ackbay everay."
As the demon was sent back to you know where Val felt as if her soul was getting ripped out as well, or at least whatever was left of it.
The feeling stayed with her as she cleaned up the site that she had fought in. This was an important part of hunting because if she didn't the police might get called and that would cause problems.
She had skipped school for the third time this week and it was Wednesday, but she did whatever she could to keep the world safe from monsters like the one that she just killed and the one that killed her sister without actually killing her ex-friends.
But now she has new not ex-friends that are actually complete humans which is nice because she does not have to worry about killing them often. Her new friends are Kenny and Traci (with a heart over the i) they were boyfriendgirlfriend but tried their best not to have Val be a third wheel.
Now Val has finished cleaning up and headed home to where her dad is and now that her sister is dead her sister isn't there.
When she got home her dad was looking excited at her.
"Hey dad," she said she wasn't sure why he was so excited because all he seemed to do was be sad, "I just finished hunting another demon."
"That's nice," he dad said then he said, "I have a lead on what happened to your sister."
"Oh… that's nice," Val responded concerned.
"I think that there is a werewolf living in our town… I also think there are vampires living in our town too."
-------------------------------
"I wonder what Val is doing… this exact second," Renesme asked during lunch.
"I don't know," August said.
"Has she been here at all this week yet?" Renesme asked.
"Um… no," august said.
"What if something has happened to her," Renesme said.
"What could have happened to her," Jake asked.
"You know what type of life she leads, Jake dear," Renesme pointed.
"I do? No I don't," he thought to try to think if he knew.
"Her family is hunters," Renesme told him.
"WHAT, WHY ARE WE FRIENDS WITH THAT CRAZY PERSON, SHE COULD HAVE KILLED YOU!" Jake exclaimed.
August looked to him strangely, "Why do you think that her sister was attacking us?"
"I thought that she was just overprotecting her," Jake replied.
"Seriously?" August asked.
"Well, yeah," Jake replied.
"I can't believe that you didn't know… actually yes can," August said laughing.
"Jake dear, we are friends with her because she is our friend, and she is a nice person plus I don't think that she hunts anymore," Nessie said.
"Oh… well that's okay then," Jake said.
------------------------------------------
Val thought about what her father said to her, how could she let him hunt her friends even if they had killed her sister, but still an eye for and eye makes a whole world blind and stuff.
She figured that she should go to warn them but she was not that excited to do so for they did kill her family and she hated them on occasion a lot.
There was only one thing that she could really do to ease her already unsettled conscience. She had to warn them……………….
