The Little Halloween Girl II: She Ain't So Little Anymore

"Sara...is that really you?!" Rahab said, bewildered.

"Yes it's me, silly!" She said, putting her hands on her hips.

"But it has only been a year since I saw you last, how is it that you...you..." He couldn't get the words out. There were so many things he wanted to ask and say.

"I was waiting for ten years for that dumb portal to open up again, checking every year on Halloween for it and it finally came. I missed you so much, Rahab," Sara said as she gave him a hug. This time he didn't push her away.

"I've missed you too. But what is this Halloween?"

"You mean you don't know what Halloween is?" She stopped embracing him. He shook his head. "Umm, I guess I'll have to explain it to you then." They walked back to Rahab's library in his territory as Sara tried to explain what exactly a holiday was, Rahab incredibly fascinated.

"You have grown much since last I saw you, Sara," Rahab said.

"Yeah, but I see you haven't changed a bit," Sara replied.

"No?"

"You're exactly how I remember you," she said, smiling. Rahab noticed that her smile was still as irresistibly sweet as when she was a child. Standing in Rahab's library, the two talked for hours about all sorts of things, catching up on what had happened during the time they had spent away from each other. Suddenly, Rahab realized that he had forgotten something extremely important.

"Oh no," he said, slapping his forehead. "During all this time it slipped my mind that there is work to be done!"

He started to go for the door when Sara spoke up. "Hey wait for me, I'll help!"

"No, I cannot risk you being killed by my clan. Stay here, you'll be safer. I'll come by a little later to check on you." She nodded and he left, shutting the door behind him. Well, I might as well enlighten myself on the knowledge base here, she said as she picked a book off of a shelf and began to read it as she sat on the nearby bed.

"Ring the meeting bell, and make it snappy!" Rahab ordered the young vampire. He quickly rang it several times as the swimming vampires came ashore to the meeting hall. Rahab quickly informed them of incoming Sarafan and of what their job was to be.

"Finally, we get the respect we deserve!" Said a Rahabim veteran vampire from the old wars.

"We must prepare for them and devise a plan of attack. Those who need their training, go and prepare for battle. My council will stay here. Remember, we have less than two days to prepare and reach the river and dispose of what humans that we can." The vampires cheered gleefully at the chance to fight once more and ran off to sharpen old skills. And Rahab and his council sat to devise a strategy, something the Rahabim clan was widely known for.

"Damn it, I can't read a single word in any of these books!" Sara complained, putting the seventeenth book back on the shelf. She'd been trying to find a book where she actually could understand the language, but they were all written with some sort of strange language, one she figured to be the native language of her friend's world. "Well now what can I do?" She sighed and began to think. "I wonder if this old abbey is still the same... Damn curiosity," she said to herself as she quietly opened the door. No vampires out here. She quietly went back into the room, grabbed a nearby cloak that had given her the idea, put it on, and slipped out into the winding masses of the abbey.

With the meeting with the council done, he slipped out of the sight of his kin and snuck back to his room. Relieved that he could talk with his friend once more, he opened the door to see it stood empty. "Sara? Sara, are you in here?" Rahab said. He looked all around, but could find not even a clue. Until he saw that his cloak was missing too. "Oh damn it, don't tell me she went out to explore!" He rushed out of his room and tried to use his senses, but he was too worried to use them correctly. So he merely tried a direction and began to search for his dear friend.

Ok, I'm gonna stop there and try to get a new chapter up at least every week. Betcha can't wait to see what happens next!
