Song - Foxes - Talking To Ghosts


Emmelines P.O.V

The night fell quickly that day........no one talked at all, perhaps if we all had we may of heard the sounds from outside sooner.

The rain that fell......the lighting that struck......outside, almost covered it up.....almost hid the terrifying sound that came next.

The howling...........the howling from werewolves was heard all over the city.........they had come from the mountains just like it had been rumoured.

"What's that sound"Calum asked.

Jo stood up.........

"Werewolves........"Jo announced.

She ran out of the apartment and out into the alley way where her bike still stood.The rest of us followed her to the main clubs doorway.

She looked in her helmet and pulled out her gun.

"I'm the only one here.......trained to kill them.....I have a couple silver bullets.......I can keep them clear from us"She says loading it.

"I was trained to"I spoke up.

"Only one gun.......only a few bullets......all of you get back inside......their not like vampires their less wise....they will tear you to pieces just for looking at them"

"Jo.......you'll be outnumbered"Luke said.

"I have to at least try......you have all kept me safe....let me repay you all"She says holding out the gun.

"Jo....you don't have to do this"I say putting my hand on her shoulder.

"Em......just trust me"

I nodded,

"I trust you, just be careful"

Jo's P.O.V

They all walks back in.

"Keep inside" I order "lock all the doors"

Ashton, Luke, Em and Michael all tiptoed back in......

"Jo............please, just don't, don't get killed"Calum says.

"Calum......go inside, I'll be fine"I smile at him as he sneaks back in not making another sound.

I make my way out onto the street.........the rain continues to pour down......and flashes of lightning appear every few minutes.

I keep my eyes peeled open......not blinking......ready to shoot.

"Please God, keep them safe.....if I live or if I die tonight, let them live"I pray.....looking to the full moonabove me.

The thing I hated about being a werewolf Slayer was that.....when ever you killed them, you are killing a person......because once that sun rises they transform back to their usual human selves.

The poor bastards are just found by me at the wrong time.

I wait....keeping my ears alert for the sounds.........heavy panting.....sound of them picking up a sent and finally the petrifying sound of them howling at the moon.

Once I here these three sounds........I prepare for the large black furred half wolf half man that is a when I prepare.....that is when I am ready to risk my life.

I knew this will be my most difficult battle.........and that's will either win it or loose it.

Either way.......I've lived for 24 years.......I've had good years....and bad years......I've had loses.....I've had heartbreaks, but I've also had loves.....and gained friends, even with vampires.......never saw that happening.

I will guard them, I'll guard their lives until dawn.........and if these are my last words, I will die in honour, I will die happy.

The howling began at exactly midnight.

When I saw the first one I shot it straight away.

It fell to the ground dead.

One down..........many more to go.
