5. Guilt and punishment
Then the friends looked at each other helpless.
"Oh my god, that's the end!" Michelle suddenly sobbed and dropped down crying into an armchair.
Alicia came to her sister and comforted her.
Sarah only shook her head and murmured, "That can't be true! Such impertinence. There never was something like that before. Never was a Slayer humiliated like that and turned into a vampire before. Never before...
And how could that happen?"
With that she looked at Hannah sharply.
This one noticed the glance and said, "I'm sorry that everything came to this, but could I suspect that they were vampires?"
"No, you couldn't suspect it, but you always should be prepared for the worst. Above all here. You simply can't let people come in that way! Also if you know them and also if they usually are best friends. You never know, how or what they really are..."
"Yeah, yeah! Ms Super-Slayer knows everything better again, huh? But where were you, when I let them in? Didn't you always pretend, you could sense when vampires would be near you? And, did you sense something? Certainly not! What is the Slayer for, when she didn't even take this?"
"Now I never would have the chance any more to prove that. Thanks to you! Yeah, 'cause of you I died. Well, that means, I died as Slayer. Another one will called now! Now I'm out of my honour. Now I never can prove again that I'm the best Slayer of all time! The world lost its best Slayer by such a stupid thing!" Sarah looked at Hannah arrogantly.
This one couldn't answer to it any more, because Alicia said, "And 'cause of what we're here now? Only 'cause of you, Sarah! If you never would move here, then we never would have met you and wouldn't get into this whole shit."
"Aw, am I to blame for it as well that you always took part in the hunting? May I remind you of it that I was against it from the beginning that you get close with this thing? 'cause this is the duty of the Slayer! There she doesn't need anybody else who takes part in the hunting beside her and contributes to the upkeep of the world, what actually should be completely the result of the Slayer. Well, it should be my result!
By the way, if I wouldn't have rescued you at that time, you all would be dead long ago. That's why you only owe it to me that you still were alive until recently at all!"
Alicia already opened her mouth for a right answer, when she noticed that something was wrong with Michelle. Because suddenly she stopped crying, got a fixed stare and started to tremble.
Alicia let her go worried and sat up to look at her.
"Michelle, what's the matter with you?" Alicia asked worried.
But Michelle didn't answer her. Instead she suddenly got up, turned around, looked at a vase and threw it with a powerful movement down.
She hissed, "What did these damned fools think actually, what they could do with me? Wait when I should get them, then I'll tell them..."
The friends stared at Michelle frightened.
"Michelle, what are you doing there? Are you going crazy? By the way, it wasn't done only to you!" Alicia yelled at her.
"Alicia..." Hannah said slowly.
"What?" she returned angrily.
"I guess, the vampires were right, we are the 7 deadly sins..."
"Why? Only 'cause the little cry-baby of my sister got a fit of rage and broke this old vase with that, should that, what the vampires told, be true?"
Hannah nodded as answer and meant, "We can't deny anyhow that we're vampires now as well. And why shouldn't it be true that we besides also show the 7 deadly sins?"
"Yeah, I think, Hannah's right. The vampire pointed at Michelle when he said this with the 'wrath'."
"Of course that you agree with her and only talk from her mouth, Sarah! Otherwise nobody would listen to you! 'cause you failed as Slayer and now you want to find reputation. You're really so selfish!"
Sarah looked at Alicia at first astonished and then she snorted and threw her head in the neck arrogantly and turned away on purpose.
"Gosh, what's the matter with you? Please be kind! I've got a headache for that reason!" Catherine admonished.
But before they could discuss about it any further, the front door was opened.
The friends looked at each other puzzled and would see right now, who come in, when this person even appeared in the living room.
