I thought of my brothers and went downstairs. I saw the lights were off and Michael and Sam were on the floor. I ran over to them trying to wake them up. Sam woke up but Michael didn't. I grabbed the lamp next to us and turned it on, aiming it so the light was moving around. Sam was waking Michael up when I saw movement near the roof. I pointed the light over there and saw a piece of leather. All of a sudden Sam was screaming and I looked over, Dwayne had him in his hands up in the air. I screamed loudly for Michael to wake up and that Sam was in danger. Sam was still screaming and he took his water gun from his pocket, squirting the holy water on his face. Dwayne screamed and dropped Sam covering his face with his hands in pain. Sam landed on the couch and I ran over to him, to see if he was okay. He was fine and quickly got up from the couch. He ran over to the table and grabbed a bow and arrow. He aimed and let go of the arrow, as Dwayne was flying towards him. Dwayne stopped and fell to the floor. Sam walked over to him slowly, and Dwayne stood, laughing.
"You missed sucker." Dwayne said, walking towards Sam.
"Only once pal." Sam said, and let go of the second arrow, hitting Dwayne straight in the chest. He flew backwards into the radio near the wall. Dwayne started screaming as lights from the radio went off. Music started playing, and sparks were flying everywhere. Dwayne was convulsing from the electric shocks running through him. Sam pulled me over to Michael and we both laid down, covering our heads. Michael woke up and he was looking up at the scene before him. The next time I looked up, Dwayne was burned to a crisp and he was completely dead on the ground.
"Death by stereo." Sam said, smirking. Michael pulled the both of us up from the ground and walked towards the stairs. Sam and I ran up the stairs quickly, ahead of Michael. We went into Michael's room and Sam screamed seeing Marko and Paul, standing there. They both went towards him and I stood in front of Sam, with my arms guarding him.
"No! You don't touch him." I said, glaring at the both of them. They both backed away a little bit, and Sam relaxed a bit. I turned around, and put my hands on his shoulders making him look at me.
"Sam… they won't hurt you. I promise you they won't do anything. They're not against us anymore, they're with us now." I said, looking in his eyes. He was staring at me confused, but nodded his head, believing me. I went over to Paul and sat on the bed, he put his arm around my shoulder, pulling me close. All of a sudden, fluff and feathers were flying from the bed. Laddie came from beneath the bed and ran over me to the corner of the room. Sam went over to him with a stake in hand and Star appeared from the closet. She guarded Laddie as he was trying to scratch my brother.
"Stop you get away from him! You just get away from him!" Star said, pushing Sam away. "He's just a little boy."
I heard screaming and banging from downstairs, I realized Michael was still down there. Star and I ran down the stairs and stopped quickly. We were both looking past Michael to see that David was dead, he had horns right through his chest. Star and I were pulled to the side and Michael was holding us close. He was in vampire mode.
"Don't let them see me like this." He said, in a rough voice. I thought quickly, "If David wasn't the leader, then who was? Wait… there has to be one more left." I went over to Marko and Paul, pulling them to the bottom of the stairs.
"Who's the head vampire?" I asked, looking at their faces. I heard Mom screaming all of our names, and the door opened. Sam and I went to the door quickly. Mom was in shock at what the house looked like. She kept asking questions over and over again. Max walked around, looking at the place. He went into the back room, over to David. He stood there for a minute or so, and then turned around, walking slowly to where we all were.
"I'm sorry Lucy," Max said," David and my boys misbehaved. I told you, boys need a mother." He said, taking off his glasses, looking at me for a minute, causing Paul to pull me close to him.
"Max, what are you talking about?" Mom said, walking towards him, confused.
"I knew it," Sam started," you're the head vampire!"
"Sam don't start this again." Mom told him, annoyed.
"You're the secret David was protecting." Star said, walking out of the back room. Max nodded and made a sound of agreement.
"Now who is this?" Mom said, looking at me, confused.
"But you passed the test," I said, and Paul pulled me closer to him, holding me against his chest.
"Don't ever invite a vampire into your house silly girl, it renders you powerless." He said, looking at me then back to the fire.
"Has everyone around here gone crazy? What's the matter with you?" Mom asked, looking at everyone.
"It was you I was after all along, Lucy. I knew that if I could get Sam, Michael and Ashley into the family there's no way you could say no." Max said, looking at Mom." It was all going to be so perfect Lucy. Your children and my boys."
"Where's Michael?" Mom asked, guarding Sam, walking backwards.
"I still want you Lucy." Max turned towards us, in vampire mode. They all screamed and I buried my head into Paul's chest, turning away from him. "I haven't changed my mind about that."
"I didn't invite you this time Max." Michael said, appearing form nowhere.
Michael rand toward Max with, however Max threw him to the second floor of the house. Star and I screamed, scared for him. Star then tried next, trying to stake him from behind. Max turned towards her and threw her to the floor. He broke the stake then threw it to the side. I jumped up from Paul's arms and ran over to Sam and my mother.
"Don't touch my mother." Sam said, and then charged at him. He rammed face first into Max's chest and Max had a tight grip on him, holding him to his side. I was debating whether or not to help Sam or stay and protect Mom. Sam gave me a look to stay with Mom no matter what, I glance3d over at Paul and Marko and saw they were looking somber but they didn't do anything. I stood my ground, standing in front of my mother.
"You'll never get my mom, not if I'm still here." I said, looking at Max. He laughed and tightened his hold on Sam, holding out one hand in our direction.
"Don't fight Lucy, its only better if you don't fight it." Max said. I was glaring at him; Mom looked very sad, however she went to grab his hand. I pushed mom back and kicked him hard in his special place. He let go of Sam and grunted in pain. I grabbed Sam and pulled him behind me. Max was furious and he grabbed me. He went close to my neck, ready to drain me of all my blood. He stopped however when the sound of a horn beeping came from the open window. I glanced over and saw lights getting closer. He let go of me and I fell to the ground, moving backwards. The window and the wall had a huge hole in it as my grandfather's truck came right through the house. All the stakes from the back were forced out. I screamed as one of the stakes went right through Max's chest making him fly backwards. He landed in the fireplace, and Sam pulled me close to him and mom, as flames shot out of the fireplace. A black cloud of smoke came over us as the fire stopped, all of us gasping for air to breathe. Once the smoke cleared we all sat back up. I glanced at the fireplace looking for any signs of life. Sam was checking on me and mom for any injuries. I glanced at grandpa and saw he was getting out of his little truck. I ran over to him and thanked him, crying. He rubbed my back and then Sam hugged him. I looked over to see Michael and Star hugging, they were finally back to normal. I heard footsteps from the stairs and looked over, it was Laddie.
"Star, Star, Star!" he shouted running to her, nook by his side. She picked him up and hugged him to her. I smiled, watching them.
