~Y/n P.O.V.~

Brenda and I had gotten off the abandoned building. Currently, we were walking in an alley-way. I could hear Brenda's breathing, and it was jagged. She must be pretty tired from that run we had.

I was in front of her a little. Just then, I heard her footsteps come to a halt, making me turn around, and see her now sitting on the ground. 

"You alright?" I asked.

She rolled up her pant leg, revealing a bite. But, not just any bite...


A crank bite...


"Shit." She muttered.

"Brenda." 

"Yeah, yeah. I know." She wrapped something around it, before pulling her pant leg down, getting up to her feet, "Let's just go find Marcus."

We started walking again, and eventually made it to a small like town. Brenda walked ahead of me, leading towards a building.

"Hey, are you sure this is the place?" I asked.

She didn't say anything, just glanced at me.

"You here for the party?" A voice spoke behind us.

We turned around, seeing a blonde haired woman, wear a dress, lots of jewelry, and a lot of make-up laying on her face.

"Uh, no." Brenda started, "We're looking for Marcus. This is his place, isn't it?"

"This is my place." Another voice spoke up behind us.

We turned our heads, seeing a man in a suit, taking a drink of some liquid in a glass, looking at us. I felt the woman touch my arm a little, leading me towards him.

"Are you Marcus?" I questioned.

"Marcus, doesn't live here anymore." He said.

"Do you know where we can find him?" Brenda asked.

While we were talking, I felt the woman, somewhat rubbing my shoulder, making me pretty uncomfortable.

"Sure, sure. He's over in zone B." The man said.

"Okay. What's zone B?" I asked.

"It's where they burn the bodies." The woman whispered in my ear, somewhat seductively.

I glanced at her, now really uncomfortable. I looked back at the man, seeing him looking at me. I walked forwards a little, speaking again.

"Okay, look, has anyone else been by here looking for him? Group of kids around our age? They had a girl with them. Dark hair." 

"You know," he started, "I think they might be inside. Here. Drink this." He held out a bottle filled with liquid.

I looked down at it, suspiciously, "What is it?"

"The price of admission."

I glanced at Brenda, unsure about this. I could see he was getting impatient.

"Drink it!" He exclaimed in frusteration.

Just then, Brenda grabbed it from his hands, gulping some down. Once she was finished, she gasped a little, making the man chuckle a little before turning to me.

"Your turn."

I hesitantly grabbed it from Brenda, examining it, before slowly bringing it to my lips. Once the bottle touched my lips, I brought it up a little, but before I could do anything, I saw the woman's hand touch it, pushing it up, making me gulp a lot down.
