Boscha and Luz were in the area that Luz was attacked.
"So, this is the second time someone attacked our Brood in the span of a week. Either someone is targeting vampires or they're targeting us." Luz said.
"This is bad, these knives normally wouldn't be that bad, but Holy Water? How did they do that?" Boscha asked, "Mama said that only her and Aunt Eda know how to make it."
"Not even married yet and you're already calling her Aunt Eda. That's sweet."
"Luz, focus."
"Right, right. This is serious." Luz said.
For a minute, they looked around in silence.
"So, did you have a crush on Amity?" Luz asked.
Boscha facepalmed.
"How did I have a crush on you?" She asked.
"Don't know? What did you like about me?" Luz asked, wanting to hear about this.
"If it will get you to stop... I liked how you always rushed into danger without thinking, how you always found the best in everyone, how you always put your friends first and yourself second."
Boscha felt a hand on her shoulder and looked at Luz.
"Boscha, just so you know, I always put my family first."
Boscha smiled until there was a noise in the distance.
"Luz, do you hear that?"
"M-maybe it was an animal?" Luz said.
The sound got closer and soon there was two people with masks on in front of them. The vampires stared at the two, waiting for something to happen. The two masked people suddenly threw knives at the vampires. Boscha and Luz quickly dodged them and sprinted away. They ran and hid inside a cave.
"I think we're safe." Boscha said.
"Who were they?" Luz asked.
"Best guess, Vampire Hunters. Probably hired by someone to hunt us."
"Why us?"
"I don't know, but this is the third time we've been targeted in a week. We need to warn the Brood."
"Agreed."
They sprinted away, unaware that someone was watching them. The person walked back into the darkness of the cave, running a hand over the back of a large animal with scales and feathers.
"No, not yet. I'll confront them soon."
The creature made a small noise and the person turned back to it.
"Yes, I know that Skara is with them, but it's too soon."
Boscha and Luz banged on the door of Blight Manor. Alador opens the door and smiled.
"Good evening, girls. Boscha, I heard the news, tell your mother I congratulate her." He said.
"Thank you, Mr. Blight. Is Amity here?"
"Yes, she's up in her room."
Luz and Boscha ran up to Amity's room.
"Amity!" They said.
A muffled yelp and a coffin lid bounced lightly. The coffin opened and Amity popped up. Her eyes were barely open and her hair resembled a rat's nest. Luz still found it cute.
"Wha..." Amity said.
"Someone tried to kill me and Boscha!" Luz said.
