Chapter 4: Infiltrate

CPOV

'I'm just a step away. I'm just a breath away. Losing my faith today. Falling off the edge today. I am just a man. Not superhuman. I'm not superhuman. Someone save me from the hate'

I shot up, cold sweat dripped off my forehead. My once pleasant dreams had been replaced by visions of horror. I shakily got out of bed and walked to the bathroom. I pulled off my clothes and jumped into the shower, letting the water sooth my pain.

"You know how to act girl, you can do this. Just don't give anything away. No matter what they say,"

I sighed shakily, and washed up quickly. I dried off and pulled my hair back with a white headband, I applied an extremely light layer of foundation, blush and a soft pink lip gloss. I pulled on the deep purple bra and panty set before pulling on a denim dress and a pair of modest gladiator sandals. The last detail was a small gold cross that too the place of my nazar, I sighed softly before pulling on the gold cross and fastening it around my neck, I scowled at my appearance. I wasn't Caitlin Rose Aller anymore; I was Bethany Rose Anderson, 20 years old born on the 12th of October. And a vampire hater, I quickly ate a serve of left over pasta and re cleaned my teeth before grabbing a five energy bars and a bottle of water, shoving them in my bag, I my purse, holding $90 cash, and a fake id and my phone, using a different SIM card and faking messages on their was easy enough. I walked outside and put a pair of white sunglasses before getting into my car and pulling out of the compound and driving down the road, towards the fellowship. It was already midday when I left home, suddenly the panic set into my fully. I swerved over to the side of the road and began to hyperventilate.

"G-Godric!" As soon as his name rung through my mind I began to calm down, I plugged in my ipod and listened to ""River Flows in You" by Yiruma" I let the melodic beauty calm me as I refocused on my goal, getting Godric back. I pulled back and speed off down the road towards the fellowship.

I arrived at the Fellowship at 3 in the afternoon; I stepped out into the smouldering sun and placed a hand over my eyes before walking into the Churches main office a young woman with strawberry blonde hair sat behind the desk, reading what was no doubt a pre approved book about Vampires and the dangers that they pose. I frowned underneath my sunglasses before slipping into actress mode and taking them off, setting a small shy smile on my face before walking up to the desk "Hello, my name's Bethany"

The woman's eyes snapped to mine and smiled widely at me; to be honest it was more of a terrifying smile "Hello there, Bethany. Mine name is Rachel. Can I help you today?"

I nodded "Yes, I want to join the Fellowship"

Her smile only grew wider and a hint of cruelness, a wave of panic set through me. Was my cover blown already!

I quickly regained my composure and smiled sweetly at her "I'd really love too. Is there anyone I can speak to about it?"

Rachel typed a few things into the ancient computer and smiled at me "There is a time to see both Sarah and Reverend Steve Newlin now! Go down the hall. I've already told them you're here"

"Well, helpful. Not" I walked down the hall and stopped dead in my tracks as my eyes went wide. There was a bulletin board with a bright notice, in the middle was a cross with what looked like a vampire on fire, chained to it the morning sun beating down on it, the date indicated it was 4 days away. Panic and fear swept through me, is this what they had planned for Godric! I quickly pulled out my phone and snapped a picture of it, sending it through to Nath. We were in serious trouble. Suddenly the office door swung open and out came our culprit. Gabe Collins eyed me as he dragged his eyes down my body, making me sink back in horror "You must be Bethany, come this way"

He pointed his arm towards the door as I walked down quickly, not liking the feeling of him being behind me. As I entered the office, I saw them both, a cream puff and a sleazy liar. Steve and Sarah Newlin were smiling at me, although judging by their smiles; Sarah had pity oozing off her smile and Steve, well Steve wasn't to be trusted that's was making itself clearer and clearer. They sat me down and asked me a barrage of questions, ranging from interests to why I was here. I smirked inwardly, Nath and I had come up with the prefect story, it was the original with a few minor adjustments, when I got to the part that my brother had been turned and had started to hunt me I turned on the water works, suddenly all the emotion from Sarah's face fell as she rushed forward and embraced me tightly "Aw you poor thing. You don't have to worry about a thing; you are here in God's bright light now!"

I smirked wider inwardly and cried a little harder into her shoulder; finally Steve offered me a tissue. I took it and dotted away my tears, careful of my makeup. Gabe and Steve shared a look that I missed due to the bright blonde cream puff in my face, reassuring me how much fun I was going to have here at the Fellowship. I sighed as I sat back, watching the three of them talk something over in hushed tones, for once I'd be glad to be a vampire for the hearing, or at least being able to read lips.

Steve turned to me "Well Bethany, how about a tour? The chapel at this time of day is just," He tilted in his head towards the roof, inhaling a deep breath "Spiritual"

"Please tell me, he was repressing that..." I groaned inwardly, Steve was defiantly a mad man. But quickly nodded and smiled at him sweetly "That would be wonderful!"

I stood up and began to follow them out of the door, down the hall and into the front office. Rachel and another blonde haired girl the same age as her were whispering to each other as Steve waved at them knowingly, they waved back sweetly and giggled "Affair alert!" I nodded to myself and smirked sightly. Steve and Sarah stood on the opposite side of me as they smiled brightly at me and then threw open the doors of the Chapel "Wow..."

In all honesty it was stunning, the stain glass windows were projecting bright colours onto the ground as they bathed the hall and the magnificent cross in the middle of the Chapel in the middle of the hall, right behind the podium. I took a step inside and walked down the aisle slowly, looking around in amazement, the sun was bright even though it was beginning to dull. Night and the moon were on the way. I turned back to Sarah and Steve, "This is just so...beautiful!"

They nodded before Steve clicked his finger "Ah, and here I almost forgot the most important part of the tour, follow me ladies"

I looked at Sarah as she tensed and then followed Steve, "Some people are so whipped"

I followed after them as we came to a darker corridor; I braked and looked at Steve "A-Ah what's down there?" all of my senses were screaming at me to turn and run, but it wasn't until I felt the presents of Gabe behind me that I realized, I was in trouble. Steve's smile suddenly turned into a wicked smirk "A tomb, the tomb this Church was built on!"

I could feel the colour drain from my face "T-Tomb?"

Steve nodded as he cocked his head at Gabe "Grab her!"

I screamed and turned to run but Gabe's gigantic hands grabbed me around the waist a hulled me over his shoulder, I began kicking around madly "Let me go, let me go!" screaming in his ear

Gabe grunted as he dragged me downstairs "She's a loud one alright!"

Sarah promptly scrambled away from the tip of the stairs as Steve guided Gabe down the stairs "Now now, you must stop screaming" he laughed loudly

I growled at him "You son of a bitch! I hope you burn in hell for this damn it!"

"Such hateful words! Gabe silence her."

I was about to protest and call Newlin the most horrible names I could think of when Gabe pulled a dirty rag over my mouth, I gagged and kicked around more as my screams became muffled. The light dimmed more and more as we reached the bottom of the stairs, Gabe held me strongly as his hands drifted down and squeezed my ass, I growled against the rag and kicked him hard in the chest, he grunted and slammed me against a wall, I cried out in pain as I felt tears prick my eyes.

"Ow, it fucking hurts damn it!"

Gabe and Steve laughed as I struggled feebly against his hold, "Just wait till I get my hands on you, you fucking son of a bitch!" I screamed loudly

Steve slapped on the chains of what looked like a storage room turned prison "Rise and Shine Vampire. Sun has now set and don't we have a surprise for you!"

"Vampire! T-They have a vampire!"

A faint rustling and Godric steeped into the faint light, his eyes snapped to me as I fought against Gabe, I felt sadness and pain spilling off him, I never understood how our connection worked and Nath wasn't going to tell me and I had never gotten the time to ask Godric. Suddenly Steve grabbed my cheek and smirked "Now Godric, do you know this little sinning whore"

My eyes went wide as I fought against him; I was going to tear him to pieces and then feed them to the dogs!

Godric stared at Steve "Let the girl go, she is unfamiliar to me"

Steve's smirk seemed to flatten "She was caught snooping around; she must be a whore of satan"

I glared at Steve and brought my foot up slamming it into Steve's shin, he cried out in pain before slapping me violently against the cheek, I feel backwards hitting my head against the wall, Godric slammed his hands against the cage as his hands sizzled against it "You swore that no one else would be hurt! Do not hurt her!"

I felt hot tears running down my face as Steve rubbed his shin "I-Its clear that you to deserve each other! Gabe get her in there!"

Gabe suddenly swept his arms under my legs and opened the door, holding a silver stake towards Godric's head "Don't hurry your death you pansy ass dead bastard"

I kicked and squirmed violently against Gabe's grip until he threw me, back first onto the ground, I felt my head flip back and slam into the ground as black stars danced across my vision, and the last things I heard were sizzling flesh and a gunshot.
