The Midnight Moon
The Vampire Xamius
I held the shotgun in my arms, it was loaded, and Blake was right behind me with his gun drawn. I placed my hand on the cold metal door, I turned toward everyone else, and Shawn nods. I unlock the door and gently push it, I stand there. Watching, waiting as death filled the air. I knew what would come next and I…was right
-1 hour Earlier-
I and Blake were walking down the long hall, I hated halls, ever since I was a kid, and my uncle would wear this Michael Myers mask and jump out. Each time I felt like I was going to die, I could feel the rush of my heart and I hated the thumping of my heart
"So you didn't tell Abby did you?"
Blake looks at the floor as our feet push through the running water
"No, I almost did but I knew you'd want to keep it secret"
"Thanks, It's just…I'm kind of new to this so everything is a bit…different"
"Brand new eyes huh?"
I said, Blake smiles
"Actually"
"Yeah, I wish I could get some new eyes, these ones…well they've seen too much"
"Trust me; I know what you're talking about"
"So…This…"
I felt weird, I mean it wasn't Blake that bothered me, I hated awkward situation. Like I'm regretting having the sex talk with Little James and knowing Shawn, He's going to have a blast telling Harry. Something tells me Jonathan and Claudia wouldn't tell him and let his 'nature' instincts take over but his instincts made him turned into a horse sized wolf and I'm not cool with that.
"You have a crush on me?"
I finished, talking to myself seems to work, why didn't I do it sooner
"Yeah, I do and I'm sorry"
"What do you have to be sorry about? You like someone…its natural"
"Well…"
"Well what?"
I said simply
"I've had a crush on you since I was 18 and please don't hit me but I hated your wife when you first got married"
I quickly looked at Blake, He put his hands up
"First got married but I got over it. I mean I was jealous…But she was a cool chick"
"Thanks"
There was a short silence then it hit me
"You do realize your crush is starting to sound more like obsessed love"
Blake chuckled
"Well…I'm speechless"
Blake looked at his feet the whole time
"Nick, Can I ask you a question?"
I thought about it, no…I wanted this conversation to end but there was going to be no end to it
"Shoot"
"Would you ever…like ever consider going…my way?"
Usually someone would laugh, hell I wanted to…but Blake was suddenly sensitive and it was odd, Blake was the tough kid and now he was an adult so I did…Gosh I feel old
"Well you mean like shacking up one night or like…relationship, Adam and Steve kind stuff?"
Blake laughed, I chuckled
"Well I don't know, Adam and Steve in a shack I guess"
We reached the door to the main room where everyone waited, I stopped
"I mean…I don't know, I've never actually never considered going donut instead of taco"
Blake chuckled
"I'll tell you what…give me a kiss"
I smiled, Blake's face became white, I closed my eyes and I could feel him leaning when I opened my eyes and flicked his nose, He quickly jumped and rubbed his nose
"What the hell?"
"Sorry, I couldn't resist"
"You suck"
Blake said, I chuckled
"You still like me"
I joked, Blake pushes me a side and opened the door, I was smiling and Blake was mad. We entered the main room in the Water Factory where everyone waited. Moments passed as we were introduced to everything. There were children there, woman and men. Each with an amazing story, stories ten times worse than mine but the only difference was they were hiding from their problems; I'm marching straight to it.
"It's nice to meet you all, I'd like to talk to you for a moment so if everyone could take a seat"
I stood in front of everyone as everyone took their seats. I saw Blake sit next to a woman that had to be his age, She had dirty blond hair that was ear length, her eyes were blue and beautiful, she wore a white shirt with a blue sweater that was half of zipped up and tight jeans, Blake stared at her, She looked at him and smiled
"Hi, I'm Megan"
Blake's eyes were wide, she held her hand out, and He took it
"I'm Blake"
I smiled, I knew that looked he had in his eyes, that's love at first sight.
"He's a friend of yours?"
She asked, refereeing to me, He nods
"Nick, I like him a lot"
Blake took a second, she raised an eyebrow
"I meant, I've know him for awhile, ha that almost sounded weird"
She nods; I could feel Abby rolling her eyes
"Alright, as you all know there are hybrids running around out there and I've had several ideas on how to get you out but…"
I took a second
"Each idea has a cost…"
"Cost?"
I heard someone say
"In order to get you guys to safety, someone will have to…risk their life"
Suddenly the crowd stirred up, some argued amongst others, I heard a few names called at me. I raised my head like some judge
"I've already chosen whose going and it's me"
Blake quickly stood up, I saw Shawn and Abby standing, Zane was in the back, two young, clueless girls sat next to him, each looking at him with lustful eyes, He had his feet up and didn't care about what's going on
"Nick, you're not risking your life!"
Abby said
"She's right, I won't let you"
Blake said, I looked down, Shame was a terrible feeling, A way of god telling you what you did was wrong.
"This is my choice, Please let me make it"
"But"
Blake shortly said
"Blake…Guys, Please…Maybe if I risked my life for these people, if I died saving these people than god would understand everything I've ever done in my life. The Plan is that I'll run out, Blake and Shawn…I want you to take everyone to the car, from there Shawn…You in charger"
"I won't have any part of this, you sentencing yourself to death"
"I lost my wife, I could have lost my child if you didn't come in time and I thank you for that. Right now, all I want is to see her one last time"
I felt the tears on my face, I was aware I was crying. Shawn looked down and shook his head
"In 5 minutes, I'm going out there full force, Shawn, It'll be your job to help them run out of this town"
-Present-
I was frozen, what I saw I didn't expect. What I saw was a chance, what I saw….was dead creatures
"What the hell?"
I walked out, Shawn and Blake followed, looking around
"I thought you said it was worse in the morning"
Zane looked over at the old man
"Zane, Do me a favor"
I started, He looked at me
"Go see if their dead"
Zane flipped me off, I looked at Shawn and nod, Shawn punches Zane in the chest
"GUYS!"
Abby says
"Shawn started it!"
Zane holds his chest
"I believe it was the Ezekiel who described the angels as creatures with wings and four faces"
The voice sent a painful shiver through out my body, my hands turned into fist. I got angry. I saw him; He stood there like a ghost in the fog, he wore a grey cloak, inside a nice suit, he had a serious face with a smug smile. He walked half a mile from me
"And you Nicholas, You are truly an angel, Now don't get me wrong, the wings are missing but I've seen the four faces. There's your leader face, the friendly, warm face and the thinking face that's my personal favorite and now, I finally see your fourth and I got to say, It's nice"
His voice was sin, why did I bother to listen? Like I cared what he said. I wanted to attack but I put my personal issues aside
"You killed these creatures?"
"Yes, truly sad I know…Creatures I made but they've become problems so I had to rid of them while I had the chance"
"Xamius, Let these people walk and we can settle this"
"People?"
Xamius asked
"Don't play stupid"
"Fine, they can walk but none of your friends can stay"
I looked over at them
"Deal"
Xamius stood aside, I looked at Shawn
"Shawn, Go"
"Hell no, I'm fighting with you"
I hit Shaw in the face with the shotgun; I looked at Zane or Blake
"Any objections?"
Zane picked Shawn up and carried him, Blake was looking at me. If I looked at him then I would regret everything I would have done. Blake in many ways was still that kid I knew, I felt like I raised him
"Blake…Please"
I simply said, I grabbed my head and forced it down, he kissed me. I was in shocked, I could hear Abby gasp. I felt the odd wave of mixed feeling. He released me
"I hate you"
I smiled
"No, you don't"
Blake walks off, angry. Abby walked up to me while Zane and Blake walk off, Zane looked at Blake
"So…What's it like to…you know…kiss a dude?"
Blake walked off, past Zane who carried Shawn. Abby looked at me
"I can't believe my brother kissed you, I kind of knew it but I guess I didn't want to believe it"
People started to walk off, passing Xamius, Xamius waved to them
"He also took the good kissing moment"
I raised an eyebrow, she smiled
"Well…I hope you know what you're doing"
Abby told me, I looked down; she raised my head so I was looking at her
"You've always did what was best for us and I watched as you suffered each time. This time…I'll suffer but don't be sad. I want to…for you"
She kissed my cheek
"I'll be waiting"
"Don't hold up"
I simply told her, she nods and walks off. Xamius stared at her as she walked off
"Abby"
He said with a wicked smile, she didn't look at him. I watched as they walked off. Xamius walked to where he once was
"Well like that didn't take long enough. Ready?"
I waited, I felt the cold air hit me, I smiled
"Yes, I am"
Xamius smiles
"I said all your friends need to go"
I raised an eyebrow, Xamius pointed behind me, I turned and there he stood, like a hero in the wind. James with his hands in his pockets
"I'm not going anywhere"
