Well I got almost everything worked out for the story so I'll be able to update faster though I did change my mind about one thing, Will and Taranee will be bitten around the fifth to seventh chapter.

Chronicles of Life and Death
By: Lord-Squirrel
Chapter Three: A Night in the Woods
In the Heatherfield Police Station
"Mark you've done good on your first mission. However legally you still have to go to school so I've enrolled you in the Sheffield Institute." Mr. Lair said to a certain young man with werewolf qualities. "Sure Mr. Lair." the boy said cheerfully. 'Good now I can get to Irma. All according to plan.'
In the Sheffield Institute the following day
"Class your teacher is home sick today so I'll be substituting for her." said Mrs. Knickerbocker to the girls' class. Said class groaned. "Also you're going to a have a new classmate. I'm sure you've seen him on the news. Class meet your new classmate Mark Brown."
Mark walked in the room and several girls swooned. "Hey he's pretty cute." Cornelia remarked. She didn't think that it was the same Mark Damien told her about. She didn't know how wrong she was. Hay-Lin nodded "What do you think of him Irma?" Hay-Lin chirped. "Irma?"
Irma didn't answer her. She was staring at her book with a glazed look in her eyes. "Good it's about time she's studied." Cornelia said smirking. "Taranee can you get in her head?" Will asked. Taranee nodded then she closed her eyes and concentrated. She gasped and opened her eyes. "There's something blocking me!" she whispered to the others.
In Irma's head
"Irma are you here?" a voice rang through her head.
"Who are you? Whoever you are get out of head!" Irma yelled.
"Relax it's me Mark. Remember from the club." Mark said.
"Mark? How are you talking to me? In my head!" Irma said.
"It's a special ability us werewolves have. Vampires can do the same thing with other vampires." Mark replied.
"Us werewolves! What do you mean? What exactly happened at the club?" Irma cried.
"I'm sorry. Things got out of hand, it was a full moon. So I accidentally bit you." Mark replied. I have control now over it now." He added.
"So I'm a werewolf now. Well that sucks" Irma said bluntly.
"Well being a werewolf has its good points… and bad points." Mark said awkwardly.
"So what do you want to talk to me about that can't wait until lunch?" Irma said impatiently.
"Well I want you to come with me." Mark said almost sheepishly.
"Come with you? Where?" Irma said.
"Well. It's kind of hard to explain. Have you heard of the… relationship between werewolves and vampires?" Mark said
"Yeah we talked about in English… I think. They lived peacefully with each other but then something started to kill the werewolves' livestock. Drained all blood the out of them. The werewolves immediately blamed the vampires… who got pissed off and then started to attack the werewolves directly. Then the werewolves got revenge by storming the vampires' village directly. Burned it down, attacked the people, the works. Then a war started and the then it was just down to the rebels out of both races who made a treaty to never have that war again unless it was really needed or something. Then both races disappeared. Irma said.
"But they're back and stronger then ever. I need you to join us. We need as many werewolves as possible since the vamps' numbers have been growing so fast. You'll also need another werewolf to help you control your werewolf form. I've been one since I was four and I just barely mastered control. So will you come with me?" Mark said.
"I will. When do we leave?" Irma said still in a slight daze at what Mark just said.
"Tomorrow night I'm still trying to make a plan so to make it seem like we were kidnapped." Mark replied just before he cut the connection.
Back in the class
"IRMA LAIR ANSWER ME WHEN I TALK TO YOU!" Mrs.Knickerbocker shrieked just as Irma was brought back to the real world. Irma yelped and fell backwards causing the whole class to laugh. "Sorry Mrs.Knickerbocker but I think that's just a side effect of the medicines they gave me in the hospital. May I go to the nurse?" Irma said with her best innocent tone.
Mrs.Knickerbocker nodded. "Mrs.Knickerbocker may I go with her. I know it's the middle of class but I haven't seen the nurse's office yet." Mark said using his undeniable charm. Mrs.Knickerbocker nodded and they walked out of the room.
School eventually ended and the girls went to the Silver Dragon to do their homework. Will turned the TV on to the news since there was nothing better on. "In other news the attacks were made by a man who was mentally unstable and thought that he was a vampire. Here's Chuck with Mark Brown the one who found and arrested the man."
The camera switches to Mark. "Well when we found the blood leading into the woods I decided to take a further look inside. I followed another trail of blood deeper into the woods and found the cannibal sucking the blood out of a rat. We haven't been able to identify him yet so we just call him Vlad." Mark said. "We think that he may be responsible for the attacks. We're reopening the park and the woods since we caught the attacker. Mr. Lair added.
Will shut the TV off. "What did you that for? It was getting kind of interesting." Cornelia complained. "You know I bet there's an actual vampire in there. Not a psychotic person but an 'I vanna suck your blood' vampire." Irma said jokingly, though she knew there was a real one somewhere in the woods.
Hay-Lin's eyes widened she always believed whatever Irma said, poor gullible kid. "Yeah we should go in the woods and investigate." Hay-Lin said. "I don't know what if there really is something in there?" Taranee said. "Ditto. When I was attacked I was in the woods." Cornelia said. Irma and Hay-Lin turned to Will. "What don't look at me. If they don't go I'm not going. You two are on your own." Will said. The trio walked out of the room
"Okay we're going to need wooden stakes, crosses, a tent and enough food to last a night." Hay-Lin said. Irma raised an eyebrow at her. "What haven't you seen the movies?" Hay-Lin replied. Irma picked up a cross and cried out in pain and dropped it. The cross was made out of silver. Where she had held it (on her palm) there was an angry red mark in the shape of a cross.
"What happened?" Hay-Lin said over her shoulder. "Err nothing I just stepped something pointy." Irma said doing her best to hide her hand. Hay-Lin nodded and went back to looking for something that would serve as a wooden stake. Her room was so messy that it was almost impossible to step on something without years of practice. Irma could remember once when they were six they were playing hide-and-seek at Hay-Lin house and Irma was able to hide in a huge pile of Hay-Lin stuff for about three hours before she passed out from lack of oxygen.
In the woods
"It's not to dark so we should set up camp and eat then we can search for the vampire." Irma said. By the time they finished it was nightfall. "Err Irma I'm going to go look for the little girls' room. I'll be right back." Hay-Lin said jumping up and down. Irma rolled her eyes and Hay-Lin ran off with the only flashlight. 'Might as well start a fire.' Irma thought. A twig snapped.
"Oh you're back. I didn't think you'dcome back. Where's your little friend? I'm still a little thirsty from drinking Cornelia's blood. Oh I see I've struck a nerve." Damien said. He did infact, Irma was shaking in rage. "You bit Cornelia! You bastard!" Irma charged at him. He easily dodged "You're gonna have to do better then that." he said laughing. He transformed into a bat and flew off and Irma chased after him.
With Hay-Lin
Hay-Lin zipped her pants up and walked out of the porta potty she 'forgot' (neglected) to tell Irma about. There was a rustle in the bushes. Hay-Lin instinctive held up the wooden stake. It was a boy messy black hair, pale skin and red eyes he looked panicked and he was bleeding from a wound. 'An albino' Hay-Lin thought.
He ran up to her panting. "What are you doing here? Haven't you heard? There's a werewolf and a vampire living in these woods." the boy said. "Why are you bleeding?" she asked. She pulled out a band-aid and put it on the wound. "The werewolf attacked me. I just barely escaped."
Flashback
Damien flew deeper into the woods. He stopped when he was sure that he last her and transformed back into a human.
"Wrong move vampire." a throaty, more like growly said behind him. He turned around and gasped. It was Irma in werewolf form. "How is that possible? It's nowhere near full moon in Heatherfield!" he yelled. She swiped her paw at him sending him flying into a tree. The force of impact didn't kill him but he pretended to be unconscious.
Irma walked up to him holding a wooden stake. She swung it down towards his heart. He rolled away from her at the last second and came behind her. "What the-" he put a hand over her mouth and bit her neck. Irma howled and transformed back into a human. 'Good. If a person dies in their werewolf form they always transform back into a human before they die.' Damien thought.
"Good another unwanted pest taken care of." Damien said smirking. He kicked her body and flew off.
End flashback
"So that means you're a-" Hay-Lin said before Damien interrupted. "Oh no way. When I was running from it I tripped and scraped my cheek. By the way does this happen to belong to you? I found it not so far away from a camp site." he held up a wooden cross.
Hay-Lin gasped "I lent thatto Irma! She's in trouble! Where did you find it?" Hay-Lin cried.
He led her to the girls'camp site. "From here I ran a bit and- holy crap!" he said in his best surprised voice. "What! What is it... oh no Irma!" sitting in their line of view was Irma's lifeless corpse.
