By the way this is my first duelling bit so…yeah. It might not me an awesome complex duel. Anyway thanks for reading : ) …..

Chapter 8

Jaden leaned forward and his fangs protruded, he looked up at my face and saw my eyes widening.

"Jay..."I didn't know what to do. I didn't want to push him away because he might feel hurt but I didn't want my best friend sucking my blood. Jaden burst out laughing.

"You thought I was gonna drink your blood" He laughed. I glared at him but I was kind of glad.

"Idiot, you worried me" I kicked him with my good leg. He fell on his butt, still laughing. I wrapped the bandages around my leg.

"Kuriboh senses you sadness. Why?" he asked after he caught his breath.

"Zane may be in danger. He went to challenge my brother and the thing is Liam doesn't play fair. He makes a bet and then...he'll just twist it so it makes Zane seem the loser. One thing about Liam, he hates losing. I need to help Zane" I said. Jaden nodded.

"Well I'm coming with you" he stood up brushing down his jeans. He helped me up and we walked up to the academy.

We peeked out the bushes and saw vampires circling the academy.

"I don't know how Zane got in there, unless Liam willingly let him come in which means he has plans" I muttered. Jaden pulled out his deck.

"If I distract them you can sneak in" Jaden suggested.

"No way what if you lose...ok, you probably won't lose but just be careful" Jaden ran out and...let's just say he caught the attention of the vampires.

"Hi'ya bloodsuckers, who wants to have a bite out of me?" Jaden pulled out his duel disk and pointed at a black haired vampire. They started to crowd round Jay. I crept around the crowd and slipped in the building. There must be more vampires coming in, I thought a lot of vampires had already gone to hunt down and duel students.

"Some human challenged The Leader, the human called Zane and I think that as the human favoured by The Leader's sister. I'm sure he's going to have fun with him" a guarding vampire laughed. The Leader? I knew Liam was entering a secret duelling tournament to become the vampire coven leader of the world but already being called 'The Leader'. If I was Liam and was about to duel Zane, where would I be? I'm pretty sure he would want to make a big show of it, so I'm guessing...the duelling hall. I walked into the hall and sure enough they were standing there, Liam with an amused look on his face and Zane with a hard look on his face.

"Sis, nice of you to join us you almost miss everything. If I win against you in a duel then you can become my human blood bank/pet and if you win I'll leave" Liam said.

"Zane, don't agree! He never plays fair and he might not even be talking about duelling and I…" Zane cut me off. He nodded at Liam completely ignoring me.

"I agree. Now let's duel!" Zane pulled out his duel disk and Liam did nothing.

"Oh Zane, you really should have listened to my sister. I'm not talking about duelling with petty cards I mean a duelling in a different matter" Liam's nail grew into sharp claws and rushed at Zane. I threw myself in front of him to feel Liam's hand go through my stomach. I coughed up blood and fell to the floor clutching myself.

"Oh dear, don't worry she won't die. Since she interfered on your behalf I'd say I won. Come on pet" Liam walked off and Zane was dragged away by Liam's bodyguards. That's when I blacked out.

#Hours later#

I opened my eye and coughed. My stomach hurt like hell! Zane! I tried to get up but I was pushed down my firm hands.

"Have to save Zane" I complained weakly. I felt to my stomach it seemed to be mostly healed.

"No, ya' need to do some resting up and I'm gonna look after you," It was Jesse. How…?

"Jaden brought you back after they chucked you out all blood stained. We moved camping grounds because the vampires were coming" His cool hand rested on my head.

"Jesse, I need to…" I tried to get up again.

"I know you care for Zane and you wanna save him but I care for you…you're like…a sister!" Jesse' eyes shone like he had just figured out the meaning of life.

"What's up with you? Found the meaning of Life?" the joke was in my head I might as well say it.

"No, but I have figured out something. I don't know the meaning of love and never felt it and I thought I was maybe in love with you but now I realise that I do love you…but as a sister" Jesse looked weirdly happy. I smiled.

"I'm very happy for…" I fainted…again.

*Liam's POV*

This was getting very, very interesting. The human boy was sitting at my feet looking moody and miserable, just the way I like it. To have my sister's blood all over my hands is still gives me goosebumps now, the way she heroically threw herself in front her pathetic human love.

"I think I'm going to save you for just the right moment," I murmured in the boy's ear. He didn't flinch or react in anyway.

"I was hoping for more of a reaction" I pouted. I kicked him…nothing. This was probably my best ideas yet, coming to duel academy and taking over. It's all her fault. If Taylor hadn't left Mother then maybe she wouldn't be in this position. Mother always expects me to lead the world or what ever delusion thing she had in mind, the point was it was pressuring. I wanted to be Mother's favourite and even when Taylor left I could tell she was still her favourite. Never mind the old bags dead now…I wonder why? HA HA HA HA HA HA!

*Taylor's POV*

Need to escape… I slipped past Jesse sleeping in his chair. Sorry Jesse but Zane is important to me and I don't want to lose him again.

The academy seemed less guarded at night. I snuck through the doors and wandered through the halls. I stopped dead at a sight of a young vampire in front of the hall doors.

"This way" he indicated through the doors. Where they expecting me? I din't have anywhere to run as five more appeared near me. I hesitantly walked in. In the hall there was Liam standing there with Zane. Was that a…a…collar? He looked at me with no expression. I ran to help Zane but I suddenly grabbed by (yet more) vampire guards.

"Sis, you can save him yet you need to hear my conditons" he laughed.

"What are they?" I spat.

"We will duel…with cards to gain Zane's freedom. He was never much fun except his blood is delicious but you would already know" I wanted to smack that smirk of his face so much.

"You won't play any tricks?" I asked. He nodded.

"I cross my heart and hope to die" He did the actions as he was saying it.

"Duel!" we chorused.

Taylor: 4000

Liam: 4000

"I summon my Water Werewolf (ATK: 1500 DEF: 1000) in attack mode and end my turn" I said.

"That's all! I summon my Blood-Thirsty Vampire(ATK: 1600 DEF: 500) in attack mode and since he was successfully summoned I get to activate the special ability, since he's so thirsty he'll just have to settle for your life points and take 500 away though I can't attack this turn. I play the spell card Apocalypse. If you don't know what it does by 10 turns if this match doesn't end this person with the most cards wins" He said. 10 turns…babies play.

Taylor: 3500

Liam: 4000

"Draw. I sacrifice my Water werewolf to bring Fire demon to play (ATK: 2000 DEF: 1500). Fire demon's effect means that it can burn up all spell or trap on the field. Fire Demon destroy Blood-Thirsty Vampire!" My red demon with a flame on its tail and menacing eyes flew at Liam's monster shattering it.

"Also when destroyed it's destroyed it can take another 500 of your life points" Liam said sweetly. I didn't respond.

"I end my turn" I glanced at my life points. I wasn't in danger yet. The Apocalypse card had been around for a turn so I had 9 turns left.

Taylor: 3000

Liam: 3600

"Hmm, should I summon this or not…Ok, I play Maiden's Neck, a spell card which, if I take 500 of my life points away, take 1000 from you" A Dracula look alike jumped out from the card and flew at me, biting my neck.

"Nice card" I flinched. What was with Liam and blood?

Taylor: 2000

Liam: 3100

"I play the spell card Polimerization and fuse together 2 Human Tokens with 2 Blood Tokens to summon Dracula's Servant (ATK: 2100 DEF: 2500), I play a face down and end my turn. Taylor, there's no way you're going to win" Liam said.

I think he was right…
