Chapter 8

"I wonder if she has any other person vendettas," Antoinette said to herself. "Who can I ask?" She sat in thought for a long period of time. "I've got it! I will call my observer! If he does not know, he might know which observer has been watching her."

She quickly got up and dialed the telephone number of a bar. "Hello, Joe," she said when a lighthearted voice answered the phone. "I have a couple of questions for you. Can you talk now?"

"Yeah," the voice said, "the bar doesn't open for another hour."

"We have a slight predicament. Her name is Patricia Adams. What can you tell me about her?"

"I'm your observer, and that's all I'm supposed to do is observe," the voice said.

"This is not for me, it's for the whole city of Cascade. I know she's a vampire, but is there anything else that I need to know?"

"Alright. She's wanted by every vampire organization in Europe. With their help you could easily take her head. That is, if there is an organization that is willing to help, but you could charm them."

"Yeah," she said sarcastically. "How do I find out about these organizations?"

"You could get in contact with that one vampire in the States. You know, the one that women fall head over heels for? What's his name?" the voice stopped in thought. "Arthur! That's it, Arthur!" he said excitedly. "Anyway, call him up. He's been around for a couple of centuries. He'll be able to help you. Good luck!" There was a long pause and she wasn't answering. Her observer became worried. "Antoinette, are you there!?!"

"Yeah, sorry. I was thinking about Arthur. He mesmerizes me too. Thanks. Your great. Bye."

She quickly looked through her little black book until she found Arthur's number. She wrote it down and dialed. "Hey Arthur!"

"Hello, who is this?" the calm soothing voice said.

"Hi, this is Antoinette."

"Oh, I remember you. You are that beautiful, fair skinned immortal. And you have that long flowing blonde hair," the voice said lovingly.

"Yes, this is her. I was wondering if you could help me? Patricia Adams is in town and is on a rampage. I need to stop her before she takes the entire city of Cascade," she explained.

"Sure, I'd love to help you. I can be in Cascade tomorrow."

"That would be lovely."

"I can't wait to see you and your radiant beauty."

"Mmm.me too," she managed to sputter out. Suddenly realizing what she said. "Oh, I didn't mean that! I mean that I can't wait to see you too!"

Laughing Arthur said, "Good bye."

"Well, I wonder how he's going to help. Does he know where I live? He didn't say. I guess if he has any questions he will call," she said to herself. "Oh well. Should I tell Simon? Probably, but he might not like the idea of another vampire in the city. What if he perceived it as trouble?"
