Chapter 8

Previously that day

Kyle turned and headed toward the entrance. Christian grabbed the skateboard as Mike pulled a couple books off the shelf to take with him. The others started following him out not realizing from whom they stole from.

Later that same day

David slowly opened his eyes as the sun started to set. Another good day of sleep and another night to party all night.

"Wake up boys. It's time to party." David said.

Dwayne opened his eyes and smirked at David. Paul and Marko started to shift as they woke up.

David dropped from his perch on the bar and felt his feet shift to the human version of feet. He sat down on a chair and started pulling on his shoes. Dwayne followed him as Paul and Marko started cracking jokes. They started hitting each other and laughing. David shook his head in amusement until he suddenly heard Star calling his name.

"DAVID. DAVID GET OUT HERE. QUICK."

David frowned and slowly stood up. "Hurry up and get ready you two."

Paul and Marko frowned at the order. They released the bar and flew down to get ready to go.

David and Dwayne moved out into the main area only to freeze at the mess they saw. Things had been moved and trashed. Dwayne growled as he realized several of his books were gone from the shelf. David took a deep breath. He could smell 6 human scents that filled the cave.

It was obvious that there were things missing. David walked forward to his chair and leaned down. He took a big sniff to smell a human scent in his chair. Someone was going to die for coming here.

Marko and Paul were laughing until they stepped inside the room.

"Woah man. What happened in here" Paul exclaimed.

"6 humans who have a death wish." David said.

Marko glanced around and growled. "WHERE IS IT?"

Marko ran around and started rummaging through stuff. "WHERE IS MY JACKET? THEY TOOK MY JACKET!"

Paul frowned and his eyes went to the couch. His eyes widened when he realized that some of the cushions were moved. He quickly moved over there and lifted the cushions. "THEY STOLE MY WEED."

Dwayne walked over to David. "They stole my books and skateboard."

Marko stomped over in anger. "When I find the fool who took my jacket, they are going to wish they had never been born."

Paul was shaking in fury. "Make that double. That was good weed."

David nodded. No one stole form them and got away with it. He glanced around until his eyes landed on the bookshelf that hid the bottle of blood. His eyes widened.

David pushed through Marko and Paul rushing to the shelf. He reached inside but came up empty. The fools had taken the blood.

He turned to where Star and Laddie stood. "Start cleaning this place up."

David turned toward Marko, Paul and Dwayne. "We are going to split up and see if we can track them. We must get the bottle back. That is the number one priority. After we have that back, the fools who came here are dead."

David and the other lost boys tensed. They could feel that someone had just drank from the bottle. David turned toward the entrance. It was still too light out for them to head toward the newest member of their little clan.

David felt Max send him a message to come to him.

David cursed. He turned toward the others. "Spread out and search for the half blood. I'm going to meet with Max and let him of what's going on."

David paced back and forth before the exit waiting for it to be safe to fly. The other lost boys shifted waiting for the ok.

Star and Laddie moved around the room picking up items and placing it back in its place. Star kept glancing at David and others biting her lip.

Finally, David rose into the air with the other boys following him. They flew into the air and out of the cave into the sky.

David and the boys flew toward the boardwalk high enough where humans could not see them. They separated and went separate ways. David to meet with Max and the other three to find the half-blood vampire. Too bad for them.... They were too late.
