Chapter 25: Facts Gathered
(6 O' Clock on the evening and the groups have reconvened at Robin's to discuss what they found out.)
"We hope that you guys had better luck than we did, we found absolutely nothing useful." Lulu said frustrated.
"Same here." Anna said.
"Well we did find something." Sam said.
"Yeah, Grant is a demonized vampire/maenad." Lucky said.
"A what?" You know what don't answer that; did you find a way to kill it." Robert asked.
"Yes, but that's where we hit a dead-end; there's this special ceremonial knife that is the only way to kill him but it has not been seen since the 17th century, some pirate had it." Aiden concluded.
"Does the knife look anything like this?" Luke asked as he revealed the knife.
"Yeah that's the knife. Where did you get it?" Sam said excitedly.
"From Margaret; she also gave us these talismans to ward off evil spirits." Luke said.
"She also said that the only way to kill him is by stabbing him in the heart." Laura informed everyone.

"What? No way! You people are crazy!" Anna shouted.
"But mom it's the only way." Robin reasoned.
"But Robin." Anna whined.
"Please mom?" Robin begged.
"Fine but you all owe me big time." Anna said through clenched teeth.
