Hahaha! Excellent! I was planning to do this chapter later on, but I thought, 'why not now?'

'I don't get it. Why do people like to drink anyways?' wondered Jude, pondering on people drinking alcohol. She, Milla, and Alvin were sleeping in the same room in two different beds as the others slept in another room. Milla and Alvin were sound asleep, but Jude didn't feel like the mood to sleep just yet.

Everyone decided to decide which room they would sleep in by drawing names in a hat. Apparently, Jude kept getting paired up with Alvin for whatever reason, making Leia and Rowen frustrated as they tried to rearrange the names over and over until everyone got impatient and told them to deal with it. Although, Jude had a feeling a certain someone rigged it.

Apparently, about an hour later, Alvin was out drinking for a bit and drank a bit too much, forcing Jude to help carry him all the way back to the inn. Luckily, he was mostly tired and didn't do...anything strange. Also, when she arrived back at their inn room, Milla was already asleep, so after she laid Alvin in his bed, she snuggled next to Milla, who had hogged all the blankets to herself.

"Haa...haa..." panted Alvin, twisting and tossing and turning in his sleep. Jude was confused and sat up, her back against the wall as she heard Alvin moaning and his face turning red. "Ohhh man...touching me there...? You're pretty brave..."

'What's he doing? Is he...enjoying a bath? But it sounds like he's doing it with someone,' wondered Jude, puzzled as her face turned pink. 'And why is my face getting warm?'

"Oh God...you're so tight there...Suddenly, you're so aggressive today, and usually, I'm the much older one..."

'Okay, maybe if it's not in the bathtub, is he helping someone change clothes? That could explain the tight spot,' thought Jude, interested. 'Then again, he could be in a battle with someone.'

She then heard the bed move and turned to see Alvin getting up, his eyes still shut as he slowly started stumbling around the room. "Mmm...makin' me...sleepy..."

'He's just sleepwalking? I might as well help him before he hit the ground,' thought Jude, getting up from her bed before walking towards Alvin and grabbing his arm. "Alvin-eep!" Jude felt Alvin's arms under her knees and back and was sweeped off her feet before tossed in his bed. "Ow! Alvin, I know you're sleepwalki-"

Alvin then crawled on top of Jude, as if he was the predator and she was his beloved, delicious prey. Jude was still confused and a little scared, not understanding about the concept of a girl and a boy in a bed together. Alvin took one of her strands of hair and began to gently twist it in his finger. "Mine...my turn to make you satisfied..."

'So, he's winning the fight in his dream? That's great, I guess,' thought Jude. 'Okay, I need to get out of his way, and it's getting too warm in here!' She grabbed a pillow from the bed and began to whack it at Alvin's face, smacking it as hard as she could and hearing him groan as she slowly sat up on the bed, ready to move as soon as he let his guard down. He was just lucky she didn't use her fists.

Suddenly, Alvin yanked the pillow out of her hands and slammed his hands in the wall between her head, making her unable to escape either way. "So rude," pouted Alvin as he got closer to her ear. "But I know how to make you...scream."

"Kya!" cried out Jude when Alvin bit down on her neck like a vampire. 'Okay, now he's resorted to biting his opponent?' thought Jude as she felt tongue and wetness on her neck. 'I'm sorry, Alvin! I didn't want to do this!'

SLAM! With everything she had, she slammed her knee against's Alvin's abdomen, making him cough out and release her. The moment he did, she rushed to the bathroom and locked the door behind her, knowing full well what would happen in she stayed in the same room.

She panted and fell to the ground, rubbing her neck as she slowly got up and glanced at her own reflection in the mirror. She moved her head to see her neck better and saw there was some red teeth marks on her neck.

'Oh no! What will the others think of now?' thought Jude as she scrambled to get out of the bathroom. She saw that Alvin and Milla were fully asleep and was grateful they were both heavy sleepers. She saw Alvin's scarf in a chair and got an idea.


The next day...

"Oh come on! Please, give it back, Jude?"

"I will once I buy a new scarf. Can you wait a little bit longer, Alvin?"

"Well, that was my scarf to begin with! And besides, you had no right to take it!"

"...I'm sorry, Alvin! Please, just lend it to me for just a few more hours!"

Ever since Jude had worn Alvin's scarf since this morning, Alvin kept on bugging her to give it back to him, not knowing why she had his scarf to begin with. In fact, the others were curious too, but still watch Jude and Alvin bicker about it.

"Why did you decide to wear it, Jude?" asked Elize curiously.

"It's like you're hiding something!" pointed out Teepo.

"Come to think of it," spoke Milla, thinking carefully. "Last night, I heard some strange noises, and I woke up to find some sort of strange activity?"

"What kind?" asked Leia.

"Well, when I woke up, I saw Alvin sleepwalking, and while Jude tried to help him go back to bed, he suddenly carried her to his bed, started saying weird things, and play with her hair."

'WHAT?!' Everyone thought in their minds, getting strange reactions. Jude was just shocked that Milla was actually awake to see this, while the others had different thoughts in mind, except for Elize for she was still a kid.

"Also, Jude started to hit Alvin with a pillow, but he yanked it out of her hands and proclaimed he knew how to make her 'scream.' Afterwards, he bit on her neck, and once Jude got away, she ran to the bathroom. It was a strange activity. What do you humans call it?"

"Oh, there is no name for it. I think Jude was fighting someone and he must have unconsciously thought his enemy was me," explained Jude, being oblivious. "I think he uses biting as a last resort."

'Jude, just how dense are you?!' thought Alvin as Leia and Rowen sternly glared at him. He coughed before quickly taking the scarf off of Jude.

"H-hey!" Jude tried to cover her neck, but it was too late. Everyone already saw the faint teeth marks on her fragile skin.

"Alvin. Is. DEAD,' both Rowen and Leia thought together as they pulled out their weapons.

Alvin noticed them as soon as he fixed his scarf and wrapped it around his neck before backing away, panicking a bit. "N-now hold on! I didn't mean to-!"

"DIE!"


One of my favorite chapters! If Jude was a girl, and this was a skit, I would be SO happy!
