Part 2
"Do you think she knows more about vampires then we do?" Edgar asked Allan as they
walked back to their comic book store.
"Nah... nobody knows more about vampires then we do... ummm, right?" Allan stammered.
"Right" Edgar replied. Of course... there was always the possiblility. "Maybe we should
try to get her on our side. Y'know. Fight vampires with us".
"They may not be a bad idea" Allan threw in.
When they reached the comic book store it was about 6:30. I would be getting dark soon.
They opened up shop and began re-organizing thier stock. The odd customer came in just to browse.
Occasionally someone would buy something. Usually they just stole it.
When 8:30 roled around I found myself at the Boardwalk. As new as it was to me, I didn't
get all that much excitment out of it. Some rides and little shops. I had that back home. I
wandered around until I found myself infront of a small comic book store. I saw the 2 boys
walking around putting comics on the shelves. They didn't notice me until I walked into the
Horror comic section.
"Hi" the one wearing the head band said.
"Hey. I'm not sure if you said them earlier, but I didn't catch your names" I smiled.
"I'm Edgar, thats my brother Allan over there" Edgar smiled back. Allan heard his name
and looked our way. He sauntered over and gave me the once over.
"So... notice anything, usual about Satan Carla yet" Allan asked me as I continued
looking through the Horror section.
Edgar put a forlorn look on his face. "Thats exactly what we asked Sam" he thought. They
had long since left. Once the vampires were all dead, they moved away. Even Grandpa. He had
lived there all his life, but now... he was gone. Edgar and Allan had no clue where they went,
Sam just said that they had to leave.
"Nah, this place is just as boring as the last place I was in" I sighed. I didn't want
them to see my utter obsession with vampires. So I know *most* of the breeds... so what?
"Even if it is crawling the vampires?" Edgar spit out.
"Yea. B-O-R-I-N-G" I lied.
The brothers looked at each other for a long second. Then looked back at me.
"So what's your name?" Allan asked with a questioning glance.
I smiled at Allan. "Catrina".
"Catrina, very original" Edgar smiled. Was he getting a crush on me? Ew.
I picked up a vampire comic and started reading it. It was about a vampire that had just
killed his best friend by mistake. Now he lives to regret it.
"Can I buy this?" I asked.
"Sure. If you want you can have it" Edgar smiled again. Jeez, never seen a guy smile so
much.
"Wow, thanks" I happily mused. "Well, I gotta go. I will see you guys again sometime".
I walked out of the store feeling eyes dance around my back. It made me alittle
uncomfortable, but I didn't look back. The Boardwalk was crowded with people. I pushed my way
through the crowd until I made it out the other side. My mom was gonna pick me up in about 10
minutes, I noted that when I looked at my watch. I wandered around in the dark outskirts of the
Boardwalk. I heard tiny footsteps behind me. I have been told by my mother that I have amazing
hearing. I was highly showing it off while I was listening as the footsteps got closer. My heart
was racing. Suddenly a heard a tiny voice. Souded like it was whispering someone's name. I took
a step forward. I heard the person become startled and take a quick step. Obviously they didn't
know I was there.
"Hh...e....ll...o?" I stammered out.
The footsteps were really close now. I saw a figure emerge from the trees that were all
of 10 feet away from me. The street lights didn't reach that far. The only light that hit the
figure was the light of the rides that occasionally reflected off of something. I could feel the
stranger smiling at him. I tilted my head trying to get a better look. I then heard a soft growl,
almost like a wolf or a dog. The figure took a stpe forward. I then noted that it was a man. As
he took another step forward, the street light smiplye shaded his features. His eyes were more
blue then the ocean itself. his pale-blond hair glistened in the moon/street light. Then, we was
only 2 feet infront of me.
"I sense something different about you" the stated. Their voice floated around me like
mist. Calming me like the sea.
"Different?" I asked after a short pause. Then my fear left me. I knew I should be
afraid, but I couldn't bring myself to be. A strange man was talking to me... but fear was gone.
"Yea. You... aren't from around here?" he half questioned.
"I just moved in today" I found myself saying. Why was I telling him this?
"Ah, I see" his voice became more natural. "Wanna go for a walk?" he asked.
"But... my mom, she..." I began, only to be interupted.
"She'll understand" he cut in. He held out his hand. I hesitated for a minute. Staring
into his eyes. They captured me and I accepted his hand.
We walked along the outside of the Boardwalk until we came to the otherside where I had
been before. There was a motorcycle sitting there.
"Can I take you for a ride?" he asked politely.
I smiled a devilish smile at him "Sure."
He mounted himself onto the bike, then once again offered his hand to me. As if asking
me again if I wanted to go. I took his hand and he helped me on the bike. Once on, he started up
his bike and we were off. The wind blowing through my hair that was just passed my shoulders. I
felt so free. My heart was pounding. We drove along the cliff of the ocean until we came to what
appeared to be a cave. I hopped off the bike and turned to him.
"And... I feel kinda silly asking you this now, but, what is your name?"
"David" he replied in a sudistic tone. A chill of pleasure ran through me. He put his
hand around my waist and lead me into the cave. It looked like someone actually live there.
There was rugs.. curtains around what looked like a bed. Blankets everywhere. A couch even.
"Nice place..." I said only alittle sarcasting.
David laughed alittle then looked at me. "There's something special about you... but I
can't quiet place it" he said thoughtfully.
I smiled. "Hey, umm, how long have you lived here for?" I asked.
"Forever" he whispered back.
I thought for a second but continued "Because I forgot I had relatives here. They moved
away but I heard thier son stayed" I rememered.
"Oh? And was was his name?" David asked, hoping to death that he hadn't killed him.
"Ummm... M...Marco, was it?"
Oooooooo.... dum dum dum... STAY TUNED FOR CHAPTER 3!!!!!!! COMING SOON!!!!
