Chapter 4 when in doubt… Google- Taker
We were telling the guys about what was going on with us, so needless to say Matt Hardy pulled out his lab top with JBL, first site they hit… I asked. I don't care for the Internet, yet some of these guys are like born with a computer mouse in hand. Matt typed in vampire curse, as JBL looked at the daggers.
"What did the deadbeat say these were?" he asked.
"Destiny Daggers, they are triggered by blood" Kane stated. JBL did some typing.
"Vampire without a cause, how to become a vampire, date a vampire, kill a vampire, cooking vampires…" Matt named off.
"Cooking vampires?" Kane asked.
Matt nodded and showed him the website. "The zombies guide to cooking the undead… wow" Kane smirked.
"Cut that out and stick with what we are looking for!" I snapped at him. Matt kept looking.
"This is taking too long." Kane bumped Matt off the computer, we were stunned as to how fast he could zip though a website and onto another. Kane checked out over a 1,000 under twenty minutes! "I got squat," he growled.
Bradshaw was deep in through. "I think I got something. Let me see those blades" he said. Kane and I handed them over to him as he compared them to the image on the computer screen. He nodded. "Yeah, those are it"
We all gathered to see. "Destiny Daggers formed before the time of Dracula and were to be gifts for him to determine his destiny as the lord of darkness. However due to his passing a new leader is to rise in his place, one being the lord… of darkness…." Bradshaw starting looking at me oddly. "Taker… that's your nick name"
I couldn't believe it. "No, that can't be true. If so why the hell is Kane caught up in it!" I demanded of him.
Bradshaw kept reading. "There be two daggers, incase one gets lost in time. Yet if they two daggers are found by vampires worth of their destiny… the blade will show them the way…"
"It makes no sense!" I protested. "We aren't even vampires, you heard what those things called us. Heart Beaters!"
Matt looked it up and found a site for vampire terms. "Heart Beaters. Vampires, who aren't exactly dead, yet have all the qualities of a damned creature. A Heart Beater can be made into a full vampire just by actions they do and do alone."
"In English?" Sara demanded.
Matt sighed. "It depends on what Kane and Taker do with their powers that determines what they become. It's like a limbo they are both in. They can go one way or the other"
Kane growled at the news of that. "So we can be damned. But question is, how?"
Bradshaw fielded that one. "Taking innocent blood for one thing, that ought to take you down a few notches, killing innocent people for the pure joy of it, desecrating a body…." Everyone stared at JBL. "What?"
"How would you know?" I asked of him.
He kept his mouth shut for a moment. "I… like to read vampire novels when my eyes hurt from all those stock portfolios" he whispered in embarrassment.
"So if Kane and I keep doing what we're doing now… We won't get any worst, yet we will have a chance at becoming better?" I asked.
"It seems it could work that way. Yet there is one other thing" Matt called aloud. "If a damned vampire gets their hands on you and tried to make you a full creature of the night… you're screwed!"
"Figures" Kane muttered.
"Do… do you got undead creatures after you?" Matt asked.
Kane and I kept our mouths shut, but the guys knew we were in trouble. "They do" Melissa spoke up.
JBL and Matt looked to one another; they then turned back to their computers. "What the hell are you two looking up now?" I demanded of them.
"How to slay a full blooded vampire" Matt replied.
JBL smirked. "I think I got just the site for that, thanks to Kane we know most of the stuff won't work on half blooded, full blooded maybe. But this will let us know for sure!"
Kane looked to me oddly. "Doesn't sound very reassuring anymore does it?" he asked of me.
"Now a days… nothing does"
Things weren't looking too great for Kane and I, but this was just the start of everything, for by next nightfall, things will be getting worst.
