Chapter 13
SHANE'S POV:
I was following Lee. I needed to now the truth. I know something is definately wrong. Normal people's eye's don't change colour to red!
Lee was practically running away from me. It was really hard to keep up. He turned right where the road was which seperated the boy's houses from the girl's houses. I turned around the corner a few seconds later and he was gone. Where the hell did he go? I caught a flash of blonde hair turn left at the very end of the road which was 50 metres away. He moves fast. I ran at top speed to try and caught up to him. When I got to the end of the road I was grabbed by the throat and pushed up against a wall. My capturer was Lee. He looked fierce. Not all smiley and happy, the guy which was lay back and easy going. He looked completely different. His face was centimetres from mine and his teeth were gritted. I could see the muscles in his jaw tighten and he had a strong lock on my throat. I was too scared to move. No one has ever scared me like this before.
"Don't. Follow. Me" He said through gritted teeth. He released me and started walking in the direction of the woods. "It might be the last thing you do". That scared the crap out of me. I didn't dare move until he was out of my eyesight and had disappeared into the woods. "Go after him, Shane" A little voice inside me spoke. I had to. I needed to know. No matter what the consiquence's.
I headed in the direction I saw Lee disappear to. I had a weird feeling. Like I was knocking on death's door.
CLAIRE'S POV:
I told Lee to meet me and Eve in the woods. It was the safest place. I needed to tell him about what happened in science. God he would be so mad. Not as mad as Alice though. She said she couldn't meet me because she had a detension. I would have to tell her later. I was pretty glad because I could deal with them one at a time.
Me and Eve were sat on the floor leaning against a large tree. I heard Lee and so did Eve. "I'm really loving this hearing thing" She said smiling. I smiled back. It was hard not to. Eve was just one of those people that could cheer up anyone.
Lee arrived looking pissed. Uh-oh. "What's up grumpy?" Eve asked.
"I have a stalker" he said and pointed behind him. Shane came out of the tree's frowning. "I told you not to follow me. Are you fucking stupid? Leave me alone!" Why was Lee being a prick?
"Look Lee, We didn't mean to spill that... stuff. We were looking for drinks! And I need answers! What the hell is with you guys? Why do your eye's change colour when you see blood?" uh-oh. We were all silent until Lee shouted.
"THAT'S NON OF YOUR FUCKING BUSINESS, ALRIGHT? NOW PISS OFF BEFORE I MAKE YOU!" He looked fierce and terrifying. I stood up and walked up to him, putting my hand on his forearm.
"Lee you need to calm down" I spoke softly. He took a few deep breaths and calmed down. Eve stood up and walked over to us facing Shane.
"Shane, There's nothing wrong with us! Our eye's don't change colour! Now please just go home!" she put her hands on her hips. Shane glared and then picked up a sharp stone which was near his foot.
"Really? Then let's see what happened when I do this!" He lifted the stone to his left hand.
"Your selfharming now?" Eve said pissed off. He cut his hand and let the blood trickle down his hand. Shit. I knew our eye's had changed. I just knew it. It was fresh, warm blood and we were all staring at it. We couldn't stop. Me and Lee had the most self control, a lot more then Alice. But Eve was still a new born.
She lunged for Shane, fangs down, and tackled him to the ground. I don't know why but I had to protect Shane. It was instinct. I grabbed Eve by the back of her shirt and threw her off of Shane. She went flying through the air and when she landed her went tumbling, doing backwards rolley-polley's. She stopped rolling and was in a crouch snarling. Then she stopped and got up, her fangs had vanished into her gums and her eye's were back to normal. She looked at the floor ashamed. "Sorry... I couldn't stop..."
"It's not your fault... it happens... sorry if I hurt you... your just very light" I smirked at the end to show Eve it wasn't a very big deal. She gave me a small smile.
I turned back to Shane whose eye's were wide and had his mouth hanging open "Your... your...". Lee walked over to him and gave him a hand to be pulled up.
"Vampire?" he offered. Shane took Lee's hand but when he was up, Lee pinned him against a nearby tree. He kept his eye's locked with Shane's when he spoke "So... Do we kill him or let him live?"
"He's stupid as hell so I'm not sure it will be much of a waste" Alice said suddenly appearing. She has a habit of doing that. Alice stood next to my left and Eve my right.
"Vote" said Lee still eyeing Shane.
"I don't think it will go down well if the school found a dead body" spoke Eve in a small voice. Alice laughed coldly.
"Who said they will? We could hide it" she responded.
"No" I spoke. They all looked at me. In a way, even though I was the second youngest, I was the closest to the leader. They usually turned to me to ask what to do next. I'm usually the one calling the shots. I usually gave the orders, so when I gave one they were usually followed. "We let him live. Make his life hell if he dares speak a word to another living soul. Hurt him so bad that by the time we are finished, he will be begging us to kill him".
Lee grinned at me "I like the sound of that". He released Shane whose skin was now paler then ours.
"Your... vampires?" he asked looking worried.
"Yes" we spoke in unison.
"Like...I vant to drink your blood?"
I laughed "Something like that"
"But I thought... you burn in sunlight?" I held up my braclet.
"Protection" His mouth made an 'o' shape.
"I won't tell anyone" He spoke quietly looking straight into my eyes.
"Wouldn't get the chance" I said coldly "We'd kill you first" he nodded.
"I wouldn't anyway... I promise" I smiled.
"Umm... sorry Collins" Eve said awkwardly "For... you know... tackling you... and hissing at you... and trying to eat you...". He laughed.
"It's ok, I guess" He smiled at us.
"Umm... sorry for... pinning you against walls and trees, and holding you by the throat" said Lee. "But you should never piss off a vampire. Unless you want people to get invitations to your funeral" Shane held up his hands.
"Alright I know that now... but... can you tell me more?"
I smiled because he reminded me of Eve. "Sure" I said looking him in the eyes "But it get's even weirder"
So? R&R!
