Chapter 17

Till Death Do We Never Part

Maggie

"What are you doing here?" I asked Zach, watching him closely. Zach didn't say anything. He turned his back to me, looking around at the books. "Zach, answer me."

Zach turned to look at me. "What do you want me to say? I'm, sorry? I can't Maggie. You won't believe me. I tried so hard to keep you safe. Victor thinks I'm on his side. Bull Shit." Zach sounded like he was talking to himself. "What are you talking about?" I asked him.

He walked closer to me. "Maggie. I'm going to help you escape," He muttered. My eyes got wide. "What? How?" I wondered.

Zach sighed. "It's not going to be easy. Trust me on that. But you will make it out safe and as human as ever. I've thought about this plan long and hard sense I knew what was going down tomorrow."

I turned from him, my eyes starting to water. "Why did this have to happen to me?" I asked him, whipping my face. Zach came up behind me and carefully put his hands on my shoulders and pulled me into a hug. "Maggie. I may be a monster to you, but I'm the Zach you've known for a long time. I need you to trust me, okay?"

Zach let go and I looked at him. "I trust you," I whispered. He smiled. "So, what now?" I asked him, sniffing and sitting on a chair.

"I don't know. I would tell you the plan, but I they are listening really closely." Zach sat down on the ground.

I looked at him closely, trying to figure him out more. "When were you turned?" I blurted out. "About the same time Victor was." "Really?" I asked him, more intrigued.

"Yea. It was hard back then. Turing then. That's when everyone believe in vampire's. Victor and I were hunted everyday with pitchforks and fire. It was horrible. But as time went on, vampires got smarter and humans got dumber and they started to not believe in us anymore." Zach sighed, remembering the past.

"How did you come to be with Victor?"

"He's my father," Zach said, looking away from me. I breath escaped me quickly. I couldn't believe what I had just heard. "He's your…father?" I asked him. "Yea. Not the best father, but good enough to give me somewhere to live. I guess I could live on my own, but I've been with him sense we changed."

Zach sighed and looked at me again. He then turned his head towards the door. "They left," He said, getting up and walking towards it to listen more closely. "They did?"

He nodded. "Yea. But we don't have much time. The plan is this. You are going to have to die."

"What?" I asked, getting out of the chair. Zach grabbed my arms. "Maggs, listen to me. When you die, I give you my blood. When I give it to you, it will take about an hour to take effect and you will wake up again, but still human."

"What? I thought you became a vampire with you die and a vampire gives you blood?" I asked him. "You watch too much Vampire Diaries. This is that show Maggie. This is real life. Now, I'm sure you Alex and Chase will be there and they will help me take care of Victor while you are dead. This will work. I promise."

"But how will I die and what will need to happen in order for me to turn?" A Shiver went up my spin at the thought.

"My dad will drain all of your blood but when I put my blood into you, your blood will generate slow. That's why it takes about an hour for you to wake. And in order for you to change. All vampires are inscripted with a tattoo. That tattoo allows us to walk in the day and it will change us when a witch casts the spell. Only a witch can be part of the changing process. Without a witch, it is usless to try to change someone. Weird, I know, but that's how it works." Zach turned to look at the door. He's coming. Be good."

Victor suddenly opened the door and smiled at us. "Looks like we have another follower. Zach, go welcome her. Make sure no one touches her kid as well."

Zach nodded, looked at me and then left. Victor didn't take his eyes off me but said "Someone take her to her room and have her get some sleep. She has a big day tomorrow."

Someone was suddenly behind me and grabbed my arm and took me to my room. Victor never took his eyes off me, his smile only getting wider and wider.

The Next Day

Alex

"Why did you make her go!" Chase yelled at me. I didn't say anything. "Alex, damn it, why did you make her go!" "I didn't make her. She offered her help and I accepted. She wants to help and she can. She child will be safe, and she knows it as well as I do. Stop acting like a child. You're the one who wanted to be friends with her. So be friends. Let's focus on Maggie, shall we?" I asked him.

Chase suddenly calmed down and narrowed his eyes at me. "What's the plan then?"

"Ali is going to try and stand next to Victor at the wedding. When He goes in for the bite, she is going to change and attack him. That's what you are going to get Maggie while I help Ali kill Victor." I pick up a bag full of silver and stakes and threw them into Maggie's car.

Chase smiled. "I like it. Let's go," he said, hopping in. I turned to Ali. "Go. You can't arrive the same time we do. Plus, you need to help Maggie. Good luck." I held out my hand but Ali refused it and hugged me. "Thank you. For helping her and being nice to her. You are a good monster," Ali smiled and then ran off. The last thing I saw was her tail.

"Alex! Come on! We are burning daylight!" Chase started the car and turned up the music. I rolled my eyes and got in. Chase pulled away fastly and we were on our way the way to save Maggie.

Break

Chase and I walked inside Victor's place and we were immediately swarmed by vampires. They were all hissing and circling us. I had my hands in my pockets, not paying attention to them. But they suddenly dispersed and I saw Victor walking towards us.

"Chase, Alex. Welcome." He smiled like nothing was wrong between us. "Victor," I nodded as well As Chase. "I will have someone seat you two. If there is trouble, we will not hesitate to kill you," Victor narrowed his eyes at me.

"Victor, you think I would do something that stupid?" I asked him. He laughed. "I know you Alex. Always wanted to help. Even sense you changed you were always a softy. But I can feel you changing your ways again. I could use you you know. There is always a place for you here."

I shook my head. "Just have us seated, watch the ceremony, and be on our way."

Victor nodded and walked up to a vampire and told him to seat us inside and watch us closely. "You sure about this?" Chase asked me, walking next to me as we walked into the large room full of people.

"Yes. Positive." My eyes widened. I never knew Victor has so many followers. Chase grabbed my arm and pulled me along faster. We were seated right in the front. Everyone around us hissed as they set their eyes on us.

Chase moved around uncomfortably in his chair. "Do you think she is okay?" I asked Chase. He looked at me. "It's Maggie. She will be fine."

Maggie

Ali fixed my hair and finally said she was done. "Ali. I'm scared." I told her. She wrapped her arms around me and held me tight. "You will do fine. Alex and Chase are out then. And from what you told me, their plan is way better than Zach's plan and it will happen fast as well. Trust me. They've got you."

I nodded and hugged her back. There was a knock on the door and Ali went to it, saying we were ready. But I wasn't ready. I could easily lose my life soon. I could lose my parents, my friends, my family, everything. All of that can be taken away from me in a matter of 10 minutes from now.

Ali walked next to me on our way out. "Maggie, no matter what happens today, remember that we love you always and forever. If you do change, don't lose yourself. Promise," Ali held out her pinky to me. I smiled at her and wrapped my finger around hers.

We walked through the halls and as we got closer to the hall, my heart beast fast. Alex and Chase were just behind these doors and they were going to try and save me. I just hoped it works.

The doors opened and the first this I see is Victor's face.
