Chapter 8
When the three gentlemen got to meet, they are in for a big surprise. The old council has already found the mother and has sent a team of assassin to kill her.
"Is this true?" asked Giles.
"Yes it is very true. The council has send two assassins to kill the Mother and Father before the child can be born." answered Mr. Mecbasta while looking around to see if anyone from the council is watching them. He has been having this feeling that someone is watching them, but all he sees is an old lady, a man with a very bushy mustache, a small little girl with a woman about 28 years, and a teenage boy that look very well dress.
"Ryan, why are you telling us this if you work for the council?" asked Wesley whispering and looking around like Ryan.
"Well, there is this small group of watchers that are going against what the old council is saying, but it is going by what you were teaching us before you, Mr. Giles, retired. We call it the New Council, and some people like Mr. Timothy Hipaluck and Miss Opal Ginfiner are in it. We work undercover telling
Headquarters about what is happening there and do what's right," answered Mr. Mecbasta seeing the old woman walk out of the coffee shop. "I think I better go why don't you meet me at Holland's Bookstore at 3:30 P.M. and bring the book to the shop," whispered Ryan while standing up to go.
" Mr. Mecbasta, uh, Ryan, do you know where this Headquarters is?" asked Giles sounding so quiet that only them three or a vampire can here it.
"I'll write it down for you," answered the watcher while getting out a piece of paper and scribbling it down while giving it to other men. It said this:
Dublin, Ireland under Pete's Pizza Parlor
"This is where it is," says Giles in disbelief. All Ryan does is nod and tells them to meet him at the bookstore. After that, he leaves while being followed by the eyes of an assassin.
Jimmy always hated The Tomato Juice Bar. I mean, even the name is horrible. No self-respecting vampire would come to a bar named after a fruit's juice. Even the humans who come here are just unemployed, brainwashed people who are so drunk and dumb that no vamp, no matter how desperate, would eat them. The only reason that he comes here is because it is the only bar that the tunnels led to during the day. When the sun goes asleep, though, Jimmy Collins goes to The Swinging Nightlife.
While he is whining about this in his head, a man comes in through the back door. Every single person in the place turns around to see the visitor. When Jimmy sees him , he wishes more than ever he is back in his pad watching The Core than here with his glass of blood at a bar, because the guy that is standing there use to be his boss, and he knows he isn't here for a drink.
The guy walks over to the bar with a glint in his eye that made the red head vamp want to run. "Jimmy, how is it going?" asked Joseph surprised that the guy is even alive or as alive as he can be.
" Fine as fine can be, Joseph," whimpers Jimmy knowing that Joseph can see the fear in his eyes and in a whisper says," What do you want boss?"
"What do you mean, what do I want? I am just here for a drink," the blond hair vampire replied while ordering for himself a drink.
"Maybe it's because every time you see me, you want something. Like the time I call #14, I remember it well. It was 1942. You wanted to know where the new slayer was. On the other hand, let us talk about # 39. The time was 1968. When you wanted to know where the new master vamp lived so you could kill him. What about the time you wanted to know where The Gem of Amara was, but I told you it did not exist," said Jimmy while drinking his blood.
"It's too bad it didn't exist and someone beat me to it so; I am going to repay you, I'm going to give you this," Joseph replied right before he slams Jimmy's head into the table. "You are right, James. I do want to know something. I want to know where Danielle is," he says while vamping out because he is so mad at his minion.
"Don't call me James!" Jimmy hissed while getting up and getting into his fighting stance. "I don't know where your human girlfriend is alright," he shouts sneering at the word girlfriend.
Joseph throws him into the wall causing it to dent. That is when the bartender runs into his office. "What are you talking about? Robert and Cat told me last week that if I don't leave her alone that they would do something bad!" He yells squeezing Jimmy so hard that Jimmy thought his head would come off.
"We were, but it wasn't to kidnap your girlfriend. It was to burn the house down. We would have done it yesterday, but these 2 guys came into town and told us to leave it to them," Jimmy squeaks.
"Do you know where they live?" said Joseph more calmly.
"I'm not sure if it is where they live or not, but I saw them go into the abandon house at Burn Tree Street," Jimmy answered feeling relieved when Joseph let go of his neck.
Joseph then staked him in the heart with a broken chair leg that got broke during the fight they had. The last thing Joseph saw of James Collins was his face in surprised. He then got out of there before the bartender came back with his shotgun.
"Where did those two trouble makers go?" asked the bartender.
"I think they went outside to finish it," answered a lady with blond almost white hair and a round face. While the bartender went outside, the lady that answered him, who's named is Sarah Clokink went to the back door to follow Joseph to what she was sent to do.
