The Time Portal

It was about mid-day, and Alex's Beetle Bonder beeped once, and flashed red, (if it flashed a colour and beeped it meant someone was calling him). He answered, by saying 'hello Jo'.

"Hi Alex," Jo replied, sounding rather cheerful.

"How's it going?" Alex asked,

"Not to bad, what about you? Everything OK?"

"Fine," he tried to sound convincing, even though he was fine, there something else that wasn't.

"I was just ringing, to see if you waned to go out somewhere." Alex, shocked at her words, said,

"Sure, what time do ya wanna meet?"

"About, half-one."

"Deal,"

"Well, see you later, oh and by the way, meet me in the park."

"Why?"

"You don't have to worry about that." And with that they both hung up. Alex, wondered, why she wanted to go out all of a sudden, he knew they had a thing when they were younger, fighting off Vexor, and Nukus, those were awesome times.

It came to half-one and Alex bugged out, then flew to the park, to find Jo, sitting on one of the rusty swings.

"Hey Jo," Alex had called to her, whilst transforming back into human form.

"Hi Alex, you ready?"

"Yeah." They walked up the winding path of Chartersville park, and when they got to the main road, Jo held his hand. Alex felt a curtain of warmth fall over him, as they continued, over the busy, car filled road. They went up at least 3 or 4 streets before they reached their destination. It was the 'Old Oak Kids Pub'. So they went in. At the bar there was a tall fellow, with black spikey hair, and wore a cape, it was... The barman turned, and as Alex looked at his face, he saw that it was Count Fangula.

"Alex, Jo! What are you two doing here?" he sounded very excited.

"Just came to visit, well, and maybe have a blood juice, yes actually, I'll have a blood juice, what about you Alex, d'you want one?"

"Ummm, yeah go on then, two blood juices please Fang!" Alex called over to Fangula.

" Commin' up!" Jo and Alex sat down at the bar, as Fangula put there blood juices down. The blood juices, were made entirely of blood, and the only reason Jo and Alex had had them, was because when they were young, they went on holiday, and got bit by a vampire, so they loved blood juices. After a while, they had finished off what must have been there fifth blood juice, and trundled down the street, going to take a look at Hillhurst. When Alex had had blood though, he couldn't remember a thing, neither could Jo, and both of their eyes were glowing, the door suddenly opened, and of course, being vampires, they do a kind of hiss at humans, but all that came from the doorway, was a glowing light. The light started to suck Jo and Alex in, and also, walking up the street, was Lizzy, and her father. They got sucked too, and no one knew what had happened, there was no escaping the vortex for Jo and Alex, but Lizzy and DR. Strosumbérg˜, were happy to get sucked in, as though they'd meant it to happen.
