Chapter Five
10 minutes earlier
David frowned and watched the scene below him. They were too late to stop her from feeding but at least she wasn't feeding where other humans could accidently stumble in on it.
He watched as the girl laid the body down before rising and observing it.
What do we do David?
David glanced at Dwayne before focusing on the girl
Let's go meet our new sister boys.
Paul and Marko smirked at each other before following David and Dwayne to where their new sister stood. Life was about to get more interesting.
Present Time
David walked forward passing Maya to glance at the body. David knelt down and turned the head toward him.
"Clean work. Right on the throat. A lot neater than yours Paul."
David and the others laughed at Paul before David rose and motioned to the body.
Paul frowned. He couldn't help it that he was a messy eater. He walked over and jerked the body off the ground and threw it in the dumpster. He pulled a match out and lit it up tossing it into the dumpster. Flames and smoke slowly appeared but it would take hours before cops would notice.
David started circling his new member.
"Not a drop on her. Impressive"
He smirked at Maya.
"Well kid, what's your name?"
Maya frowned at David. She glanced from him to the three other boys before turning her focus on him.
"My name is Maya and I know who you are. You're the lost boys. What the hell is going on? What's the matter with me?"
Paul and Marko started laughing. Paul wrapped an arm around Maya's shoulders.
"Girl chill. It's all good."
Marko nodded bringing his hand to his mouth covering his smile.
David smirked "You're a vampire. The wine you drank was blood…My blood. You were in transition but you make your first kill so now you're a vampire."
Maya stared at him with her mouth hanging open. He had to be joking but her eyes turned toward where the body burned. She had drank his blood. She was a vampire. Panic set in.
Thosands of questions poped into Maya's head and ever vampire movie fact she had seen ran through her mind.
What was she gonna do? She didn't know the first thing about being a vampire. What about hunters?
Maya's mind flashed back to the frog brothers and their vampire hunting dreams. How will she survive hunters?
David's smirk slowly melted into a soft smile. He could feel her fear and worry. They all could. He walked over and placed a hand on her shoulder gaining her attention.
"We sleep all day Maya. Party all night. Never grow old. Never die. It will be fun being a vampire especially the first ever Lost Girl Vampire. We're a family. Nothing gets between us. You are not alone."
Slowly the fear went away. No matter what happened this was her life now and her family.
David glanced at Dwayne before turning the focus on the girl. "Maya where is the blood and Marko's coat?"
"It's back at the factory. The old tire factory four blocks over."
David nodded before turning heading that way calling over his shoulder "Let's go boys and girl. We have work to do."
Paul and Marko started hooting, hollering and pushing each other trying to knock the other down while following David.
Maya bit her lip. She had a pretty good idea what was going to happen to Kyle and the others.
Am I doing the right thing?
Dwayne placed a hand on Maya's shoulder. Yes you are. Remember we're your family now. All together. If they tell anyone else hunters could come. We need to stick together. In time you'll forget about them. Trust me.
Maya nodded her head and allowed Dwayne to guide her into the darkness of the night.
Her new life had begun.
