It's fully night time and the boys are seen approaching the fountain. Red and Chloe reaches where they are... giggling.Peter: Well I see you both made up.
Chloe: Yeah. We did.
Jason: Yo do you stay alone in that house? We've been there this whole time and no body came home.
Eddie: (nudges Jason) What's wrong with you?
Jason: What? (Looks at Chloe who's looking down...sad. Red growls at him) Am I missing something here?
Peter: Chloe parents passed on three years ago. Red told us about this. Were you not listening?!
Jacob: Really?... I'm sorry about that.
Jason: Yeah. I didn't mean to come off as insensitive.
Red: Too late.
Jason: (sighs) I'm sorry, Chloe.
Chloe: It's fine. What do we do about the vamps that are currently after me?
Jacob: (grins) We have ideas.
Peter: (rubs his temples) These guys think it'll be best if we corner them and fight till death.
Red: (scoffs) And...you agreed to that?
Peter: Of course not. I want to see if you have any better ideas. Literally, just any ideas.
Red: Well... cornering them is not such a bad idea. I mean tomorrow's the carnival. Lots of games snacks and people. The perfect place for a hungry vamp.
Jacob: I'm offended but go on.
Red: We could follow them and try splitting them up then take them out one after the other.
Chloe: And it's gonna work?
Jason: Of course it's gonna work! It's just one vamp.
Jacob: And how many did it take to hurt your shoulder?
Jason: (growls) Did you say something?
Eddie: Can we just focus here?
Peter: It's gonna work. It has to work.
Red: So we'll meet at the carnival.
Jacob and Eddie: Right.
Jason: Right.
Peter: Good cause I'm beat. See ya. (He turns into a black wolf and runs away.)
Eddie: (looks at Jacob) Alright. Take care. (Transforms and speeds off)
Chloe: Hold up!! Where do I sleep?
Jacob: At your house.
Chloe: Yeah it's Soo safe to stay at my house alone with two demons after me. (Rolls her eyes)
Red: (sighs) She's right. We'll stay with you.
Jacob: Who is this 'we' you speak about? I'm going home. (Attempts to leave but is pulled back by a pissed off Red.)
Red: (growls) Need I remind you that you're the reason those guys are here in the first and that you're the reason that Chloe's life is in danger.
Jacob: Hey she decided to get involved.
Red: It's not negotiable. You're staying.
Jacob: (groans) Fine. So pushy. (He walks towards Chloe's house)
Chloe: (looks at Red) Thanks.
Red: Let's go. (They leave)
(The two arrive at Chloe's house. Jacob is seen leaning on the wall making a call.)
Jacob: Mom I promise I'll be fine. The plan is gonna work...No they're not lying....They already killed one....yeah...okay bye...(whispers) I love you too. (He hangs up)
Chloe: Who was that? Your girlfriend? (Chuckles)
Jacob: Ha ha very funny. (They all go into the house)
(Moments later, Chloe and Red are seen in bed. Chloe's battling with sleepy eyes while Red stares at the ceiling)
Chloe: Are you...sure Jacob will be okay?
Red: Yeah...but I told him to yelp for help if something goes wrong.
Chloe: (laughs lightly) I just don't see why we can't stay in the same room.
Red: hmm. Go to sleep, Chloe.
Chloe: But I'm not (yawns) sleepy.
Red: (faces her and smiles) C'mon. Don't fight it.
Chloe: Don't make me sleep.
Red: Why?
Chloe: (yawns) I'm scared. That those guys will come back. That they'll take me away.
Red: (strokes her cheek) Nothing will happen okay? I won't let anything happen to you. I promise. Now get some rest. We have a big day ahead of us.
Chloe: (closes her eyes and slowly drift to sleep) Thanks, Red.
Red: You're welcome.
(Minutes later and Red is still not asleep. She slowly slithers down Chloe's bed and made her way to the kitchen. She pours herself a glass of milk to drink when someone startles her )
Jacob: Couldn't sleep?
Red: (nods) Mhmm
Jacob: Me neither.
Red: (drops her cup) Why?
Jacob: I'm just...(sighs) I'm not ready for this. I'm...
Red: Scared?
Jacob: (looks at her) Yeah. Everything's so messed up and now you guys are also in danger. Because of me.
Red: You shouldn't beat yourself up for this. (Sits on the counter) I'm doing my job...and even if it wasn't f my job... (Looks at him) I'll still do it anyways.
Jacob: (moves closer to her) Why? As far as I know...you don't care about me or what I get myself into.
Red: I don't show it doesn't mean I don't care (holds eye contact with him but looks down) besides you're not the only one involved. Chloe is in also and I won't let anything happen to her.
Jacob: (smiles) Thanks. For saving me the other day.
Red: (smiles back) You're welcome.
Jacob: Let's get some sleep. (Stretches forth his hand)
Red: (holds his hand and jumps off the counter) Yeah. Big day tomorrow.
Jacob: Are you ready for ready for this?
Red: As ready as I'll ever be.
