Hey, everyone. Here's another chapter. It's going to hopefully make you feel a little sorry for poor David. I hope everyone likes this one. To CallaRose, I haven't really thought of pairing anyone. I haven't got any ideas who'd I'd pair who with. Does anyone have any suggestions? If so, feel free to express them. I really want to thank everyone who reviewed. It means a lot. Anyways, here we go…

CHAPTER FOUR

OF THE PAST AND PRESENT

Bianca sat on the couch, waiting patiently for Sam to begin his story. He had taken a seat beside her on the couch. Fallon sat on the other side, and Edgar and Alan took seats in the arm chairs. Fallon sighed, "So? Who is this David guy?"

"I'm about to tell you," Sam told her.

"Did you kill him, Sam?" asked Bianca.

"No. My brother Michael killed him."

"Oh. I see," sighed Bianca.

"But I was there. I saw him… what he looked like. What he did to my brother. What his father tried to do to all of us."

"Sorry… his father?" asked Fallon, "His father was in on this, too?"

"Yeah," answered Edgar, "It was his father's idea to try and turn Michael and Sam… and their mom."

"Let me start at the beginning. If I don't, you'll never understand completely what's going on. Edgar and Alan will help me," Sam told her, "Like I told you… this may take a while."

Bianca and Fallon sat wide eyed as Sam, Edgar, and Alan finished their story. "Oh, my God," was all Bianca could say.

"Let me get this straight. This guys father was the head vampire?" asked Fallon.

"That's right," answered Sam.

"He was going to try to make you a family by turning all of you?" Fallon asked.

"Right," replied Sam.

"He used his own son, to get what he wanted?"

"I guess you can look at it that way," answered Edgar, "That doesn't mean David wasn't evil."

"I didn't say that," sighed Fallon, "The guy bit Bianca, and I hope you get him. However, you can't help but feel sorry for him a little. Maybe he wasn't always bad. You've got to feel sorry for anyone who dies… vampire or not."

"Fallon's right," Bianca said, quietly, "Didn't you feel sorry for your brother? Don't… don't you feel sorry for me?"

"Yeah," answered Sam, "I do. But Bianca, this guy isn't half vampire. He's killed… a lot, and he's enjoyed it. No, he wasn't always bad, but… he chose to be the moment he made his first kill."

"You don't know how long he waited, Sam. How long the hunger may have ate at him," said Bianca, and there was something about the tone of her voice that let Sam know just how much she pitied David, "You don't know how long I may have to wait. You were there to help save your brother, Sam. You're here to help me. Maybe he had no one… except his father, who probably made it seem romantic, or special, or… or maybe he just made him do it."

Sam actually smiled, "You're very kind. Kinder than you should be."

"He has to die, Bianca. If he doesn't, you may be stuck like this forever. Forever is a long time," Alan told her.

"Yeah, I know," Bianca sighed.

"How do we find him?" Fallon asked.

"Both Bianca and I have dreamed about him. Maybe we don't have to find him. Maybe he'll come to us," Sam said.

"If we're sure it's even David," Edgar added, "We aren't sure it's even him. It may be someone playing with our minds. Someone who knows… someone who knows just how afraid of David we are."

"Right," Fallon agreed, "He's right. Maybe it is someone else. Maybe you guys don't have to worry."

"No, we're still worried," Edgar replied.

"No, I mean about David. Maybe you won't even have to deal with him again," Fallon sighed, "I'm really tired. It's getting late. We should really fix you guys somewhere to sleep."

"We'll sleep in here," said Alan, "It's close to the front door. If anything tries to get in this way, we'll be ready for it."

"What about the widows?" asked Bianca, "What if they try to use them?"

"Here," Sam handed both Bianca and Fallon a small vial of clear water, "its holy water. If something tries to get in through the window, use it. It'll give you time to run in here, or at least call out to one of us."

"Thanks," Bianca said, giving a little smile, "Thanks, Sam… and Edgar and Alan. For everything."

"Yeah," agreed Fallon, "Thanks."

The two girls went to their rooms, leaving the three guys alone. Edgar sighed, "Do you think it's him, Sam? Do you think it's David?"

"I don't know," sighed Sam, "For her sake, I hope it's not."

Bianca sat straight up in her bed. She was sure she'd heard a tapping at her window. She looked over at it, scared. She saw nothing or no one. She took her bottle of holy water off of her nightstand, and gripped it tightly.

Bianca lay back down on her pillow. She closed her eyes and tried to go back to sleep, but the tapping returned. Bianca threw her covers off, got out of bed, and then walked to the window. She opened it, and then looked all around. She could see no one outside. "Who's there?" she asked, hoping no one would answer.

Suddenly, as if all around her, she heard a whispering. It filled every inch of her room, and threatened to fill her head. "Who's there!" she demanded, "Who is it! Who's there!"

"Bianca," something whispered, "Come out and play, Bianca. We're waiting for you."

Bianca felt a sudden urge to jump out the window. She closed her eyes and suddenly felt herself floating. She felt herself going out the window into the cold night air. Then, suddenly, she felt herself being pulled back inside, "No!" someone shouted, "Hold on to her! Don't let her go out!"

Bianca felt herself fall to the ground. When she opened her eyes, she saw Sam was holding her down. "What's going on?"

"You were floating out the window," he told her.

"How did you…"

"We heard you screaming," Edgar replied.

"Someone was whispering to me," she told them.

"Who, Bianca?" asked Fallon.

"I don't know…" then, suddenly, Bianca smiled, "That's the second time I've found you on top of me."

Sam grinned, and then got to his feet. He took her hand and pulled her up, "Sorry. It was either that, or you float away. We couldn't have that."

"You didn't see anyone?" asked Alan. "You didn't see who was whispering to you?"

"No. I didn't see anyone's face. I'll tell you this, though. Who ever it was, was every convincing. When they spoke, all I wanted to do was be near them. All I had to was just be around that voice."

A/N: There's chapter four. Not the best chapter in my opinion. It'll hopefully get better than that one. Now I want opinions. Should it be David that's the bad guy? Or, should there be another bad guy that's playing with their heads and no David at all? Or should it be another bad guy and should David be in and be a 'sort of' good guy? Let me know.
