Chapter Six

(Marko's pov)

The sun had set for another day in Santa Carla, meaning feeding time. We rode out towards the beach cutting through the woods. A group of mixed teens where sat not far from the ocean, bonfire freshly started, they had probably been on the beach all day as they were dressed in very little.

When it comes to my meals I like them sweet, I've always had a sweet tooth even when I was a human. It didn't take me long to pick my meal, it was one of the girls sat round the fire; she had her brown hair up in a ponytail, from my angle she looked about nineteen. The boys had picked their meals pretty quickly…..1…...2….3….. The sound of screaming soon filled the air. It never took us long to feed, chucking the bodies into the fire we set off towards the boardwalk, hoping to see the girls again.

We'd been at the boardwalk an hour and there was still no sign of Kita or any of the girls, I was beginning to worry that I wouldn't see her, until I noticed her darting through the crowd. Her sunflower dress brushed against the crowds of people as she darted through them.

"Hey Kita", I shouted jogging over to her. She didn't even stop as she made eye contact with me, reach out I tried to grab her arm which she pulled away.

"Marko I don't have time, I'm busy", pushing past me she continued

"Why what's happened?" I had to quicken my pace to keep up with her fast moving legs.

"Look I can't talk, I need you to leave me alone", she didn't even look at me as she said it.

Reaching out I tried to grab her arm once more and turned her to me, shrugging my hand off she looked up into my eyes. So many emotions played her face but what I picked up from her eyes was fear, which didn't make sense she didn't know about us. She looked up at the sky and apologised and ran off into the crowd, I turned to see what was so important but all I saw was the full moon.

"What was that about?" Paul said from behind me, I guess he and the others saw the whole thing.

"I have no idea" I huffed as I walked back to our bikes.

"Your girl playing hard to get?" David asked with a smirk on his lips.

"Fuck knows, she looked scared when I went to grab her"

"Could she have found out about us?" Dwayne asked looking at David.

"I don't think so, something else must be wrong. Have you seen the other two girls around?" David asked the group.

"Not seen any of them since last night" Dwayne said.

"Nope" was all Paul said.

"Right let's go have a look and see if we can find any of them and get some answers before Marko starts tearing apart the boardwalk".

-One Hour Later-

"Any sign of them?" David asked as we met back up where we were parked originally.

"Not a thing, this is strange right?" I asked the others.

"Just a bit, we'll just have to wait and see if they show up. Everyone keep your eyes open I have a bad feeling about this" David said as he lit a cigarette.
