Chapter Four

Today can’t get any more worse, can it?

Not only do I stand all through the night I get to wear an embarrassing tuxedo  onesie while doing it, I might as well commit suicide.

As I stood by the entrance welcoming the students wearing pyjamas, I spotted Gwen coming and she was looking stunning in her grey astronaut jumpsuit PJ...she braided her dark hair into two pig tails Her red eyes shone under the evening sun and strapped across her petite waist is “A fanny pack?”

“ You got a problem with it usher ?” She fired back with cocky smirk okay she’s pretty hot

“No I don’t have a problem with it at all but it’s a protocol for me to check bags in case any student is bringing any contraband” She put her tiny palms in the air and said “I’m all yours officer”.

I bit my lip hard as I patted her down feeling every outline of her body through the PJ, her skin was icy cold.

“You’re clean but wait the Fanny pack” she gave me a look which made me know she’s not ready to remove it from her waist so I proceeded to check the bag while she’s still wearing it “You’re straying too far officer” I know but I couldn’t resist appreciating her curves she was making my head spin.

Dan waved at us as he ran “ I never knew fat kids could move that fast” Dan screeched to a shaky stop.

“I......saw........ I saw” he said mid gasps.

“Catch your breath old boy and tell me what happened“ I said trying to calm him down.

it took two minutes of heavy breathing before he started talking “I saw Joe making out with a girl by the school bus......and he turned around and started chasing me”

“Did you notice anything strange?” Gwen asked him urgently “no uhmmm........yes his eyes were crimson red and .....and the girl was bleeding from her neck or was it a colored tattoo” The poor boy is going to have a concussion if we push him too far .

“Get inside and find the school nurse, don’t go anywhere” he gave a shaky nod then continued his frantic running.

Me and Gwen stalked towards the parking lot which was quite dark and deserted but the scent in the air told me otherwise....what was that smell.......Fresh blood !!

“We need to move carefully, I can smell fresh blood” She nodded silently then moved at a speed I could barely follow with my eye towards one of the yellow school bus, the smell was getting stronger that  meant we were getting closer.....closer......CLOSER....

”I thought vampires aren’t allowed to feed on humans, you my friend have broken the treaty” Gwen said with murder in her eyes, Joe turned around from his lifeless food “your treaty have no meaning here and soon so will you” he bared his teeth and his crimson eyes burned with killer intent.

“You were the one who killed those girls” I said with anger “they were my food and that stupid Kelly tried to get in the way so I killed him too” So that’s why Kelly is missing from school.

“You monster!! You killed your own friend” she shouted as she rushed at him with her claws, she landed a scratch across his chest which made him back up , I landed a kick to his ribs then clawed at his neck but he dodged.

“I don’t have time for this I’ll break your necks another time “ he dashed away with his superhuman speed.

“That’s not the last time we’ll be hearing from him” I agreed with a nod, we managed to fend him off with the element of surprise next time we might not be so lucky “let’s get back to the auditorium”.

We made our way back to the auditorium silently, the mood was not the one for talking we just witnessed our classmate feed on another school mate and there was nothing we could do about it. The candle light service dragged on, everyone held their candles up in remembrance of the life lost  not knowing they are about to mourn another.
