It was a quite night, no monsters anyway and I was thankful. Fighting monsters and all is fun, exciting. Never thought I'd actually be meeting vampires, but with Tommy's arm wrapped securely round my neck I didn't want anything to interupt it. Just walking with him was enough. He didn't seem to care if anyone noticed us, and they did. I could see the stares but I guess most thought we'd be togather for ages. As we were walking past the woods he stopped, ears pricked.

"What's up?"

"Not sure, demonic I think." He looked into the woods. "That way."

"That way, into those dark menacing woods?"

"Don't worry, you know I'll protect you. I have to check it out."

"Fine, I don't like it though." I knew I was pouting but it wasn't because of going into the woods but because his arm had left my shoulder. He grinned then took my hand and pulled me into the woods after him. Cold dread was creeping up my spine. I didn't know why, maybe it was E.S.P or something, but I'd never felt that way before.

The woods were quiet, so quiet I could heard Tommy's breathing in front of me.

"Ooh, how touching,"

We both spun round, I scanned the trees while Tommy sniffed the air.

The raspy voice seemed close but we couldn't see if anyone was there. Then Tommy spun directly round and flung me to the floor as the thing passed over our heads. It was crouched and then stood walking over to us.

"A werewolf and his pet, romantic."

It stepped out of the shadows and I gasped as it was not a scarred, horrible demonic face. But a human's.

"Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Vlad, werewolf hunter. These," He paused dramatically while many others dropped down around us, surrounding us.

"These are my friends."

I heard a barrage of guns click and we froze.

"Silver bullets. Don't move or we'll shoot."

Tommy growled and launched himself at the shape hurling it to the ground. The others were shocked and for some reason they didn't shoot. I realised they couldn't risk shooting their master. Then I felt several pairs of hands drag me towards a tree. I struggled but their hands were everywhere and I was soon gagged and bound. I struggled but then I felt the cool metal of a gun against my temple. It clicked and I saw Tommy stop.

"Get away from our leader or he get's a bullet through his head." said the man holding me.

Tommy glared at him then stepped off their leader. He backed away. "Leave him alone."

Then the leader was behind him and he grabbed his arms binding them with a thin rope. He hissed and dropped to his feet in agony.

"Tommy!" I yelled, managing to slip the gag down, "What did you do?"

"Silver coated rope. I believe it saps them of their powers."

"Them?"

"Werewolves. You see our master says we should kill everyone that we find." He dragged him up and pulled out a silver sword. He pushed him against a tree and several members of the group rushed forward and bound him to the tree.

"Bye bye Wolfie," He chuckled as he pulled the long sword back. Tommy's eyes shifted to mine and he opened his mouth slowly.

"Love you Merton." He whispered softly.

"No! Tommy!" I shouted struggling to free myself from my attackers grip. I watched helplessly as Vlad darted forward with the sword and thrust it through Tommy's mid-section. For a moment, he stood looking at the blood just blinking. Then he sank and everyone disappeared. The ropes vanished and I fell forward suddenly free. I crawled to where he had fallen and rabbed his head in my hands. His eyes were wide open and blood still leaked from his wound. Tears fell down my cheeks as I slowly shut his eyes and kissed him on the forehead.
