Chapter 13: Literally good luck Charlie
Bob Duncan drove the bug mobile home from another extermination job. He loved the smell of the poisonous gas he used on the little critters. It was soothing for him but now he was ready to come home to his wonderful family, he pulled into the garage and got out of the van "hey guys I'm back" he said but his reunion was cut short when he found Gabe dead at his feet "oh god no" he grabbed him and held him until he say PJ on the couch with his throat slit "PJ" he carried Gabe and set him down next to him, he noticed they both had strange bite marks on their bodies, he then remembered Amy and Charlie were here too. He rushed to his van and grabbed his poison gas fumer and ran upstairs in Charlie's room, he first found Amy with her neck broken and a hooded man holding Charlie. "Fucking put her down right now" he attempted to be as threatening as he could with a vacuum-like device.
The man turned to reveal his face, which was extremely pale but he looked young, yet his eyes looked so old. "If only you knew" he said "I need her more than you do at this moment" he flew out the window with no aid. Bob rushed downstairs to the garage and got in his van, he saw Teddy and Spencer walking home
"Hey dad what's going.."
"Get in now I'll explain"
Getting in Spencer said hello but Bob ignored him "Teddy that's a vampire and he's got Charlie we need to go now"
"What about mom PJ and Gabe?" Bob didn't answer
They tailed the vampire in the van, the road was clear as they followed him to a cathedral. "This was way easier than those Canadian teenagers trying to stop me." He mocked.
"Put down my sister you maniac" screamed Teddy
"Well if you insist" the vampire dropped Charlie into a portal "names Jesse by the way" he gave a maniacal grin.
Bob lunged at him but Jesse caught him and threw him against a small church wall "you can call me Billy Mays if you like cuz I'm not done yet" he turned to Spencer and Teddy before Bob blacked out.
When Bob opened his eyes, Jesse was gone, as was Spencer, but Teddy lay on the floor motionless. Bob said nothing, he solemnly lifted Teddy and carried her to the van, she had no pulse and she felt like she was burning up. He drove back shedding many tears, the town was unquestioning of the event, they didn't seem to care and he hated it. Bob parked the van and pull Teddy out placing her on the couch with the rest of the family, then he went outside in the backyard with a shovel and dug 5 graves. He walked back inside and wrapped Gabe in a blanket before carrying him out to the first grave and filling it. He did the same for PJ and marked them both with rocks. Then he carried Amy out and placed her in her grave but after filling it in he just lay there on the ground crying. When he got in the house after pulling himself together he prepared to take Teddy again when she opened her eyes. Bob stepped back in shock "Teddy?"
Teddy examined her surroundings "yeah dad, what happened?"
"You- you died, I was about to bury you and then..."
"I feel different still" she felt her teeth.
Bob sighed "show me your neck" Teddy turned to reveal bite marks.
"Son of a bitch, you're a vampire"
"Where's Spencer?"
"He was gone when I woke up"
"What are we gonna do?"
"I'll get you a cloak to protect you from the sun and some animal meat In case you have blood lust but I honestly don't know what we're gonna do..."
