Heyy Fanfictioners! Sorry it's been so long since we updated. Danielle's laptop broke and we couldn't write a story until we got it back. Then we had exam's and shit, then the laptop wasn't fixed probably, and had to be sent away...again. Thanks for being patient... and please review ^_^
Erik's POV.
"Erik!" I heard Damien's voice echo down the corridor. What does he want?
"I'm in here!" I yelled back, then I heard his running feet as he ran towards my classroom.
"Erik!" He yelled as soon as he reached my door.
"Yeah?" I paused, wow he knows my name. "If this is about the English essay again I swear I will..." he waved his hand to stop me speaking, so I stopped and stared him.
"We need your help. But you can't tell Neferet!" Damien was out of breath and he looked panicked, I really didn't want to hear why. I would never tell her anyway, she is up to something.
"Why...What happened?" I asked curious, standing up and putting the work I was marking back in my draw and locking it.
"I really don't know! That's the thing, but Stark rang me about five minutes ago, saying Zoey is badly hurt...and Stark told me to get you and meet him at the front gate! He is on his way with her now" he told me, talking really fast, like the words scolded his tongue. I felt really weak soon as Zoey was mentioned...did that thing get her! I'm going to kill it, if it has laid one finger on her.
"Shit, come one" I burst out, and ran out the room towards the front gate with Damien behind me.
"I told him to not go out! And I told him to keep her in!" the anger was boiling up. "Why didn't he listen" I asked myself, Damien said nothing he just carried on running. It didn't take me long to reach the front gate, and by the time I was there, I was knackered, and Stark hadn't arrived yet.
"What's happened to Zoey, I wonder how bad her injury is?" Damien asked.
"I know as much as you...we're we taking her?"I asked.
"The girls are in her room now, cleaning it and nicking some supplies from the medical room" he told me. "Okay, shit who is going to help her, if she is bleeding really bad, I can't help her, I have no idea what I am suppose to do. I know I'm clever but I don't like blood that much, well I like blood but i don't like messing with it and you don't know what to do either do you Erik?" he cringed at the thought.
"The sons are here, I'll get Darius, he would be willing to help" I told him, I know I shouldn't but he needed to know.
"What? I don't see them" he looked around.
"I know, they are hiding" I informed him.
"Why?" he stopped for a moment and thought, then his expression changed. "Wait...they are only here when someone bad happens...what...what is going on that I don't know about" he asked me.
"There are things out there" I nodded out of the gates. "And it's killing our kind and its close" I told him.
"That's terrible, we have to tell the others" he blurted.
"You can't. Only teachers know, just don't let anyone out of these gates, and let no one in" he nodded at me. "Here they are" I jogged out the gates and ready to see the damage.
Stark slammed on the breaks, I didn't know he could drive. He walked over to us, topless? His chest covered with blood, and so was his jeans and face.
"Friggin' hell Stark! Is that all Zoey's?" he nodded, I feel queasy.
"Look, she has been sliced shoulder to shoulder, deep wound, she is in a lot of pain, because of him" he hissed as he jogged back to the truck me and Damien close behind.
"Why have you brought him with you?!" I yelled. Looking at him in horror, if anyone saw a human here, they would flip.
"Trust me, I didn't want to, he wouldn't let me take his car otherwise, and the good thing is, Zoey needs human fresh blood, he is her donor, you can say" he told me clenching his fists, and I understood why he didn't like Zoey feeding from him. Imprint.
"Right, thanks for the update, and I'm not responsible for him, he can stay with you, and I know nothing about him" I told him, I don't want to take the blame if he is found here.
"Neither do I" Stark said, I couldn't help to smirk.
"Stop chatting, get Zoey!" Damien suddenly interrupted. Oh my! Zoey! How could I have forgot, I rushed over to the car behind Stark. Stark opened the back door and said something to Heath, and he nodded.
"Erik, you carry Zoey, you are probably the strongest and fastest here" Stark ordered me.
"That's Fine" I told him, I didn't mind carrying Zoey, I have done it once before, and I have kissed her too.
"What! No, I am carrying her" Heath shouted.
"No you not, as I said Erik is stronger and faster, and why would Zoey want to be in your arms, you nearly killed her and your high, she hates that are you know that" Stark spat at him, Heath mumbled something under his breath and gave in.
"What do I do?" Damian asked.
"You keep this pressed to her chest" he tossed a Heath's Shirt to Damian.
"Eww! It's owned by the Vermin!" he squeaked. Then smiled.
"What about me!" Heath asked.
"I got to get you back to my room and sobered up!" Stark said not looking amused.
"I want to stay with Zoey! She might need more blood" He smiled smugly.
"Fine!" He spat. I jogged round to the side of the car and leant down and clutched to Zoey's body and lifted her up into my arms, Heath looked at me with pure jealously, soon as I touched Zoey an electric charge pulsed through my blood, as I thought, she belonged in my arms. I carried her all the way to her room without stopping; I didn't care about the people who stared at me as I carried Zoey, I even ignored Damien close at my side holding Heath's T-shirt to her wound.
We approached Zoey's room and I heard rather frantic out bursts coming from her room, the girl's were running around panicking. I burst through the door and placed Zoey softly on the bed, trying not to cause her pain. Why the hell would Heath do such a thing!? I'm honestly going to kill him that boy he just gets on my nerves.
"OH MY GOSH! I DIDNT THINK IT WOULD BE THAT BAD!" shrieked Erin.
"You got that right Twin" replied Shaunee.
"Right, you make sure she doesn't get to hot" I said.
"Got it, I'll get a flannel" Stevie ray said as she raced to the bathroom.
"Damian keep that pressed to her chest, Stark will be here soon with Heath"
"Heath!?" the girls all screamed.
"Yes, he is human, and Zoey will need his blood, pretty much now, you girls sort that out, make sure that she stops drinking from him when he looks weak" I ordered them. "I'll get Darius" I jogged out the room, leaving behind the panicked girls...and boys. I ran to Darius's room and luckily he was there, lay on his bed reading a novel, per usual.
"We need your help" I stormed in his room, and pulling the book of him.
"We? And why?" he asked puzzled.
"No time, But Zoey is badly hurt, knife wound, deep" I told him, as fast as possible. He understood quickly and grabbed his phone. "You can't ring Neferet, you know how she is" he nodded and chucked the phone down on the bed, I ran out the room and he followed close behind.
"How did she get it?" he asked while we ran.
"Oh. Her ex sliced her, he is drunk and high still" I told him, starting to run out of breath.
"What do you mean still Erik?" he asked, slightly pissed off.
"He...he came back with Zoey and Stark" I told him.
"SHIT! HE HAS PUT US ALL IN DANGER! HE CAN'T BE HERE! WHO KNOWS OF THIS?!" he yelled.
"Just me, stark, and the girls Stevie-ray's girls, the people I used to hang with...and I'm not so sure Zoey knows, she is pretty much out of it" I told him. "We also think that heath and Zoey are imprinted" Darius sighed angrily. We ran up the girls steps quickly, we got some pretty weird looks, but I didn't care, all I wanted to know was Zoey alright.
When we arrived at Zoey's room, Heath was lay on the spare bed looking awfully weak, and aroused, Zoey was lifeless on the bed with Stark leaning over and holding a sheet or something to her knife wound, sweat dripping down the side of his face, and his eyes watery, Stevie ray holding a cold towel to Zoey's head, the twins running around getting all the medical supplies ready for Darius to work, Jack over by the door checking if there are any teachers or nosey students coming to find out what all the fuzz is about, and Damien over by her clean sheets and clothes, getting stuff ready for her when she wasn't bleeding anymore, and healing.
"Whoa, she is in a worse state then I thought" he gasped, as he looked a Zoey. He rushed over to Zoey and moves Stark's hand away from her wound so he could see it.
"Right, I need, some bandages, Stitches, a pin, one of those needles" he pointed towards the sterilised surgical equipment the he required to help Zoey. Shaunee was the first to respond, everyone else, including me was froze to the spot. She quickly grabbed the stuff and handed them over to Darius. An eerie silence fell across the room as he began to operate on her.
"So what happened?" Stevie ray asked. "Stark never told us much"
"I don't know much either" Erin said.
"I know twin" Shaunee agreed.
"I don't know, I'm sure stark will tell us later" I said. "All I know is that Heath was high and drunk, and there must have been an argument to make him swipe her, Heath is sorry for it, so I guess it was an accident" I told them.
"An accident! Look at her, that's one flipping deep wound, no way was it accident, he wanted to get even, because he was probably jealous of them two together, I know I would be if anyone tried to steal my jack, but I would never hurt anyone like he has hurt Zoey" Damien said. That stabbed through me, the two of them together, Zoey and Stark, she shouldn't be with him, she should be with me, we belong together, I bet he doesn't get her, and anyway he doesn't know how to treat a girl, all the girls are after him now anyways, he would never make a relationship last, not with someone so perfect anyways, I know I shouldn't be saying this about my mate, but it's how I think, and I'm going to fight for Zoey, she will be mine.
"I never liked this girl, but who knew she was so damaged" Erin said sadly. She was damaged all because of him. Heath.
"Erik go down to Neferet, and tell her that I'm sick and unable to patrol tonight, I'm going to have to Stay here with Zoey, in case she needs more assistance" Darius ordered me.
"Okay" I said and walked out the room. I wondered out the girls dorm thinking of Zoey, what if she didn't make it, I would never be able to hold her perfect body alive again, I would never to able to kiss her, and feel that connection between us again, there are so many things me and her could do together, and we won't be able to. Suddenly a hand was on my shoulder, it was jack.
"What are you doing coming out here?" I asked.
"I didn't want you to go on your own" he smiled sweetly.
"I'm a big boy, I can take care of myself jack, and I'm a teacher" I laughed.
"Yeah, I know, but I didn't want you on your own" he told me.
"Thanks, but you can really go back, all I'm doing is going finding Neferet, and coming back myself, and anyways I though she scared you?" I chuckled.
"She is scary, and I know but I wanted to ask you about this thing that is supposed to be killing our kind, because I heard Stark and Damien talking about it, and I thou-" Jack stopped in mid sentence, and froze in his place, staring into the darkness.
"Jack?" I asked, he never responded. "Jack?...Jack hello?" I asked again, while waving my hand in front of his face. "What's wrong?" I asked slightly worried now.
"Is...Is he dead?" he asked terrified, I looked around to see where he was looking, there lay a lad, covered with blood, the earth looked as if it was bleeding there was that much blood, he lay there lifeless. I ran over as fast as my legs could carry me, and knelt down at side of him; I rolled him over, and checked his pulse. Nothing. "I-is he?" Jack shouted, still frozen in place trembling.
"Yeah, he is" I shouted back, feeling panicked, it's on our land, and the sons haven't stopped it. Anger boiled up inside me, how is he dead! He should be alive, why haven't the sons saw this!
"Who is it?" He asked, walking slowly forwards.
"It' Shane Langford, and he's dead" I told him.
