A/N- Wassup? It be TOBN here with yet another spooky update to TTOW! (sexy acronym. :P)
This is actually on time, right? How awesome is that?! If it wasn't for my dearest fanfic buddy, I wouldn't have ever updated, because I would've forgotten! My brain is a jackass sometimes, you know what I'm saying?
But here we are! Chapter 3! Week three before Halloween! Excited? What are you dressing up as - if you are? I am dressing up as 'Christmas', aka Santa Clause, because my friends are coordinating costumes, and we are dressing up as holidays. There is New Year's, Halloween, Easter, and me, Christmas, since my birthday is December 21st (send me presents :P) and it is the closest to Christmas! Plus, it's my favorite holiday. I had to be Christmas.
More scarier news; this story is being updated. Jokes! I mean, there isn't much other scary stuff. But this story is pretty scary, or at least, it gives me the chills. And even if last chapter was a bit more mild, this one is going to get freaky :P
Shoutouts to...
mbavlover61010- That's pretty true, now that I think about it! Jokes! But yeah! Funny. Anyway, I have a hunch that you are right! I mean, spider bites aren't always too good, am I right? Jokes! Anyway, thanks for your review; I don't care how long it takes :D
MBAV fan66- I would love to become Spider Man! Or...Spider Girl. You know what I mean! But you are probably right, fanfic buddy. Jokes! Anyway, a few problems are sure to weave its way through into this story, am I right? I don't know what I'll do if an evil specter tore apart our friendship *shudders* But all bad thoughts aside, thank you for review, fanfic buddy! Oh! And for reminding me that this story needed to be updated! I would've never remembered if it wasn't for you :)
So drop a review, and remember! Don't read at night - unless you are rebellious like that :)
The Terror Of Whitechapel

Chapter 3: Spider Eyes, And Stolen Guys
Benny sipped his drink lazily in his hand, frowning - had it worked? Would they leave if that...creature lurked around everywhere? They do say people are most afraid of those things anyway, so for sure it'd be okay...right...?
"Hello," A voice behind him said, "enjoying the party?"
Benny remembered that voice. It was the one that he had rejected. And to be fair, was it really worth it...
He turned around, his hand shaking. He smiled a bit, but then frowned again. He had to act like he knew it wasn't her. If he didn't, it was game over for him, and the rest of his friends. And after what had happened before, he wasn't going to let them get hurt again.
"H-Hello." He stammered. The girl had a black mask, and her auburn hair was pulled back in a tight, straight ponytail. She had fuzzy cat ears rested on her head, and a black tail, going left to right slowly as she moved a bit. Benny saw a distinctive shade of crimson red on the girl's shoes, and he gulped nervously - he didn't see his old friend Greg Harrison at this party yet...
"Are you enjoying the party?" She repeated once more, her pearl teeth shining through her dark mask. Benny backed up when she leered a bit closer, her breath on his. He bit the bottom of his lip, and he just smiled weakly at her. He had to make sure there was no resignation on his face. This had to be perfect...
"Yeah. It's, um, cool." He replied, tugging his Harry Potter scarf nervously. He pushed up his circular glasses, and took a swig from beer he had in his hand. Had to keep character, but enough is enough...
"I am glad you think so," The girl purred, "because I worked quite hard on it." Benny nodded, stepping back once again.
"Well, you did a fantastic job." He said with a sharp smile, backing up so that he would walk all the way to the other side of the room, squirming through dancing bodies and drunk college students -oh, how he remembered how fun a frat party was...
"Where are you going?" A voice emerged from behind him, and he gasped, when he turned around to see the girl with an axe in her hand. His eyes widened at the amount of dried blood on it. She ran her thumb against the red blade.
"I have one more person on my list..." She announced, and he yelped as she hit him with the side of the axe, knocking him out just as he finished mumbling a few words, sparks flying from his fingertips. His brain pounded, and he fell in her arms.
And she grinned.
Whitechapel Manor - 10:21 pm
"Have you seen Ethan?" Sarah asked, itching her leg a bit. Erica frowned, kind of ignoring her as she twirled her straight, blonde hair that was posed as an anime girl's hairdo. She banged her phone against her hand.
"Who cares about the dork - he is probably out in this party, blending in with all the other kids." Rory, winking at a college girl, walked over to join the conversation.
"How?" Rory asked dumbly. Erica smirked.
"By getting wasted." She replied, and Sarah just rolled her eyes in annoyance.
"Actually be serious. This is a bit worrisome, don't you think? I mean, what if something actually happened to him? This is a party that bargains people's lives, you know?" Sarah pointed out, hastily looking around for the Seer. Erica groaned, hearing a buzz from her phone.
"I would be able to call him if my frickin' phone started working!" She said in annoyance, banging it against the palm of her hand a few times. Nothing worked.
"Do you think this is Audrey's doing?" Rory whispered with his dorky grin. Sarah shook her head.
"You said that there was no supernatural DNA in her fingerprint." Rory frowned, a bit more seriously now.
"Do you think Audrey has an accomplice? Supernatural, perhaps?" He asked, and Erica snorted.
"Why would some wannabe like Audrey have an accomplice?" She scoffed.
"Why not?" Sarah replied, and Erica just nodded.
They talked for a while, before Rory caught a glimpse of someone in the corner of his eye, staggering around the place. He grinned, and nudged Sarah on the shoulder. He smiled widely at the brown haired vampire.
"Hey!" He exclaimed, "I found Ethan!"
Erica and Sarah turned around to see Ethan, staggering across the dance floor. Music banged in their ears as Erica squinted, seeing a bunch of white in Ethan's hair from afar. Her super vampire sight saw different, however, and she saw...
"Cobwebs?" Sarah cried out. Rory frowned.
"Why does Ethan have cobwebs in his head?" Erica smiled.
"He really is wasted." She said with a giggle, and Sarah elbowed her again. She winced, but nodded as Sarah went up to Ethan in a rush.
"Ethan? We were looking for you everywhere! It's been an hour, and have you seen Benny -"
Ethan turned around, and the gang shrieked at his eyes; they were red, and there were a lot of them.
"What the actual fuck?!" Erica shrieked. Rory screamed like a little girl.
"There are so many eyes!" He added, and Erica just elbowed him again. Sarah just stood there, eyes fixed on the multiple eyes that Ethan had on his face, that replaced his regular, chocolate brown eyes. She blinked.
"What?" A creepy voice emitted from Ethan's mouth, as if pitched voices were saying the word as well. The multiple eyes that Ethan had were dulled red, and were tired.
"If...you aren't...going to talk to me...go away...I have to go." He said between heavy breaths, staggering away once again. Sarah tried to grab him, but he hissed at her, some sort of fangs covered in venom pouncing back at him.
"I said leave me alone." He growled, "I have to go."
"What the fuck, Ethan?" Erica said, growling. Ethan's dull mind just blurred even more, and he pounced on some random girl, and bit her neck. Horrified, the three vampires watched as Ethan disturbingly sucked all the blood out of the innocent - and probably drunk - girl.
Blood spewed out from the bite, and they watched in terror as the girl cultivated on the ground. This was not like any regular bite - vampire-like, or even spider-like. This was almost unnatural. Unreal. Definitely scary.
She comprised as blood spewed from the bite, her skin breaking as even more blood drizzled all over the place. Rory screamed again, and Sarah watched in horror as the girl literally exploded.
"Guys, I think something is happening to Ethan," Sarah said nervously, "because this ain't normal." Erica scoffed as Ethan's blood red eyes darted all over the place, looking for his next victim.
"No shit, Sherlock!" She growled, and Rory frowned, hitting Ethan in the head. His hand got tangled in the cobwebs, and when he tried to yank them out, Ethan roared, holding his head. Sarah gasped as she held up the cobwebs and showed her fanged friends.
"Guys," Sarah said in shock, "there are literally cobwebs attached to his scalp." Erica frowned, trying to hold Ethan, who screamed like an animal.
"Maybe the webs are, like, messing with his mind?" She suggested. Sarah looks at her incredulously, but nodded anyway.
"You could be right," She said thoughtfully, "Ethan did get bitten by a spider. Maybe it was radioactive or something. Perhaps supernatural?" She pressed, and the nerd in Rory lit up.
"Dude," He said with a wide smile, "What if Ethan turns into Spider Man?" Ethan but yet another person, causing their eyes to bleed green and red, and their head to fly off. Everyone thought it was part of the party, and in their drunken state, clapped. The headless body Ethan held fell, and Ethan smiled.
"I need to go," He said in monotone, "she's waiting."
"Sarah!" Erica exclaimed, holding Ethan back, eyes popping red and bloodshot, like a spider's. "How did you stop that killer tree?" Sarah shrugged.
"I dunno, cutting the stems and wires?" Erica dug through her pocket and revealed what seemed to be a nail clipper.
"What if we just cut the webs in Ethan's head? Shouldn't that mean," Sarah's eyes widened.
"We can cut off the connection." Sarah said with a grin. Erica tossed the nail clipper, and Sarah cut the webs.
Blood spewed from all Ethan's extra eyes, leaving two in tact as he collapsed into Sarah's arms, blood and green goo covering his white shirt.
As Ethan stirred, Rory looked at Erica, then to her phone, which was still not working.
"Do you want me to look into that?" Erica sighed.
"No. It's kind of working now. I mean, just Siri, but that's cool," Erica said, sighing, "or at least a good place to start."
Siri's voice was static, but Erica shrugged as the two went to help a stunned Ethan.
...
Audrey looked over the balcony of the mansion, her tied up spellmaster wiggling beside her.
"They're all drunk," She whispered manically, "and easy to kill."
She laughed, and carried Benny away in her arms. His screams were muffled from duct tape, but his thoughts were loud.
'They should've left by now' He thought. 'What went wrong?'
A/N- Hope you liked it, and I tried to make it gory as possible with Ethan. Sorry if I didn't :P And sorry if it is shorter than usual; this was written on my phone due to inconvenient matters :/
I'm going to Halloween Haunt at Canada's Wonderland - you fellow Canadians should know, and if you don't, it is in Ontario and is pretty frightening - so maybe next chapter will be a bit gorier!
Drop a review, and until next Saturday!
Keep On Keeping On
