( I don't own My Babysitter's a Vampire. Second of the week, to make up for last week, sorry again but I didn't have internet access, it was awful but I'm back now and broadcasting will now resume as normal. Thanks)
As soon as we hear the cell door slam behind us, Erica and I scramble to unfurl the note that Ethan gave me. It says two words, "Jail break?" Erica echoes as she reads the note over my shoulder.
"Would you keep your voice down? Do you want us to get caught?" I ask, agitated that she didn't already think of that.
"Sorry, I just didn't think Ethan had it in him to do something so...brave!" She replies, raising an eyebrow in surprise, "do you think Benny is helping him?" I see what looks like slight longing in her eyes, but it is gone in a second.
"Well...he did help Ethan to distract the guards while Ethan slipped us the note" I grin, pretending I didn't see anything. "But I don't understand, he must have given more information than this!" I hiss, crumpling the paper and hurling it across the room as I slump onto my bed.
"Wait...I have an idea" Erica exclaims as she dives for the paper on the floor, as she picks it up, she slowly lifts it to the light and reveals more scribbled writing in invisible ink "I thought so!" Erica sings, flashing me a smile.
"I guess that what you said to Jesse was right, you must still be a giant geek to work that out" I taunt, snatching the paper to read the note as she hisses at me.
Ethan's POV
I hide behind the kitchen's dumpsters with Rory by my side waiting to ambush a couple of the night patrol, I duck lower behind the dumpster as I see a beam of light round the corner. I ready myself and pounce over the dumpster as the guards stroll past us and take down the guards, Rory and I drag the guards behind the bin and undress them, leaving them with only their underwear still intact because I very highly doubt that either I or Rory want to take those with us, I shudder at the thought as Rory brings me out of my mind and into reality. "Can I please just eat them?" He begs, slipping into the uniform.
"No Rory, I may be a vampire now but I still think it is wrong to eat humans, what if they have families?" I argue, trying to get back on task.
"But what if they don't? Please Ethan, just one of them then?" He continues obviously itching to sink his teeth into one of them.
"No, Rory, just leave it, I'm not going to let you eat them!" I growl, growing more and more agitated as time continues to slip away from us.
"What if it's just a nibble then? Please?" He crouches on his knees, pleading with me as tears spring to his eyes in desperation.
"No! Now come on we have to meet Benny" I mutter, pulling him to his feet.
Benny's POV
Where are they? Did they get held up? Or caught? What should I do? Do I have time to go for a pizza? No! Benny just stick to the plan and no thinking about food. We have to do this for Erica...and Sarah...obviously. I see Ethan jog around the corner with Rory at his heals. "What kept you so long? I thought we were going to have to abort the mission!" I hiss, unable to contain my anger.
"Sorry Benny, Rory wouldn't stop think about his stomach. Are you ready?" Ethan replies, almost as annoyed as I am, it clearly hasn't been to easy for him either. I nod my head in agreement, Ethan and Rory grab me and lead me into the building. They lead me to the front desk and announce that they need to speak with the warden, the officer wearily tells us to go right in. Ethan knocks and as soon as we hear the word "enter", march in.
"Warden, we found this guys lurking outside the kitchen and thought we should bring him to you" Ethan states in a deep voice with a slight Texan accent, shoving me into the centre of the room so that I hit the desk, spilling a mug of coffee into the warden's lap. As the warden is distracted, Rory sprints to the desk using his vampire speed and grabs the codes to the electronic doors (for the cells) from the draw in the warden's desk.
"What the hell was that?" The warden demands as he wipes the coffee off of himself, shooting Ethan an angry look.
"Sorry...sir, I didn't mean to push him that hard, it's just that guys like this really push my buttons" Ethan exclaims, pointing to me while giving me a hard stare.
"Well it's alright...as long as it doesn't happen again...mr...?" The warden glances from me to Ethan, still dabbing at his pants, trying to get the coffee off.
"Smith, sir, Zack Smith" Ethan stammers as he salutes. "And this is my partner, Thomas Link" he mentions, gesturing to Rory.
"Well then, Smith, Link, take this young man to an empty cell, I shall deal with him in the morning" the warden mutters, slouching in his chair, almost asleep.
"Yes, sir" Ethan and Rory salute one last time before ushering me out of the door. Ethan approaches the front desk again, this time asking for a list of the convicts in each cell, making the excuse that he wants to find a good cell for me. The officer looks confused for a moment before handing over a list, obviously too riddled with tiredness to argue or even care. As we march around the corner, towards the cells Ethan skims the list before stating "they're in 306" and leads us down another corridor and closer to our destination.
Erica's POV
I pace the cell, scuffing the floor with my shoe every time that I switch direction. Just as I turn my back on the door, I hear the electronic lock release and spin around to find myself face to face with Benny, Ethan and Rory as Sarah leaps to her feet.
"Come on, we don't have much time!" Ethan whispers as he turns to leave. We creep along several corridors and stop at each corner to carefully check that the coast is clear. We are almost out when we round a corner to see a guard sitting at a desk, I jump backwards and fall into Benny who just manages to catch me and keep his balance. The guard shuffles on his chair and I think we've been busted until he begins to snore. We tip-toe past him, in single file, trying to cause as little noise as possible. We reach the last door and Ethan is about to type in the last code when a guard rounds the corner, as the guard sees us, he slams his hand into an alarm button on the wall. All around us a siren blares and red lights flash, almost blinding us. More guards arrive on the scene just as Ethan punches in the last digit of the code. We all round on our heals and sprint into the night...
(A/N: to be continued. I am so happy, this is the longest chapter I have ever written for fanfiction and I'm so proud. I must give a shout out to Baily because she suggested I include Bennica which I have now hinted at and May or may not continue with *wink, wink, nudge, nudge*. Hope you like the chapter, please tell me what you think. Thanks for reading)
