The haunted theme park

Chapter 3

The huge iron gates slammed shut behind them as they crossed the boundary. Valkyrie felt China shiver.

"We'll be alright." If Valkyrie had to say that again she would kill China Sorrows.

"Try telling that to her" China was pointing ahead of them and Valkyrie followed her finger to a purple and green tent, then she looked at the path in front of the tent. There, about 5 metres, in front of them was a women lying face down on the floor. Valkyrie ran to her side but China stayed where she was. Valkyrie crouched to check the woman's pulse but found none, she had none-she was dead. Valkyrie rolled the woman over; she was young- perhaps 20. Her skin was as white as chalk, the only colour on her skin were two red marks on her neck. Valkyrie took a closer look and realised they were deep puncher marks in the skin.

"China! Come here." Valkyrie shouted over to her friend. Moments later China was by her side.

"Vampire bite. Valkyrie we really should be going now." China said worried.

"Not yet."

"Well if I get bitten I will kill you. God knows what I would look like will white skin, not to mention I'll be dead."

Valkyrie laughed at this.

"What? I'm being serious that would ruin my career no one would look at me again." China was being serious.

"No one would look at you apart from Skulduggery."

"What are you trying to say?"

"Nothing…I mean he doesn't even have skin so…"

And at that moment the woman laid between them sat up straight making them both scream. The woman's pupils had changed instead of hazel they were red-as red as blood.

"leave," The woman voice echoed around the theme park, "Leave and never return." And she dropped back down to the floor.

"Well we were just about to leave." China stood up and pulled at Valkyries arm. At that moment the entrance to the tent in front of them had opened and China dropped Valkyries arm.

"Were not leaving yet, China, this is only beginning."

"I had a feeling you were going to say that." China sighed.

Valkyrie stood up took Chinas arm and pulled her inside the tent.
