The New Vampire in Town

chapter 8

Polidori was getting back home just as Sunshine was getting herself ready for school in the morning. 

Sunshine looked at her grandfather. "What happened this time?" She asks.

"One of those younger ones attacked me!" Polidori cried out.

Sunshine scoffed.

"I could've sworn I saw Oskar with them..." Polidori stopped to think.

Sunshine looked at him.

"How come I've never seen Oskar in school with you?" Polidori was now suspicious of the truly vampire boy in which Sunshine never knew about him being one.

Sunshine looked at him. "His parents homeschool him." she says.

"Have you actually seen his parents though?" Polidori asked her.

Sunshine gave a thought.

"Sunshine, my dear, I believe your friend is one of those vampires." Polidori concluded based on what he knew and didn't know about Oskar.

Sunshine didn't believe him.

Polidori shrugged. "I could've sworn I saw him... With fangs..."

Sunshine started to head to her school. Polidori then went back into his bedroom to think up more plans.

The school bus came for Sunshine to take her away as it waited outside down her block. Sunshine was pondering. The bus took Sunshine inside and it started to drive off to the local school. 

"Hi, Sunshine!" two of Sunshine's friends, Nadine and Grenda, who came to her slumber party greeted.

"Hi~" she says cheerfully.

Nadine had Sunshine sit next to her while Grenda sat in the back.

"Did you see My Little Unicorn last night?" Nadine asked with a smile. "It was so sweet!"

"I know, it was~" Sunshine agreed.

The girls were then talking about their unicorn cartoon. Sunshine more avidly.

While the human children did their lessons and discussions, the little vampires were still sleeping. Demetria slept peacefully. Morty wandered from Wren's coffin and was strolling about and went to see how Demetria was getting along. Demetria opened her eyes, looking calm. Morty mewed to Demetria, then pounced into the coffin, making sure no sunlight came into the new young vampire.

Demetria cuddled Morty gently. "Hello, Morty." she says quietly.

'Hello, dear... Are you well?' Morty nuzzled against the girl.

"Mm-hmm... Just tired... Did I help out?" She asks softly.

'You did well, my child... And you helped my dear brother...' Morty purred.

Demetria smiled, hugging her gently. "I'm like my daddy... Scary, but protective of those I love." she mumbles.

'Nestor's like that too, reminds me so much of our father,' Morty purred with a small smile. 'I'm sure Wren highly appreciates it.'

Demetria smiled, starting to fall back asleep.

'Sleep well, baby bat, you've earned it.' Morty smiled, then pounced out from Demetria's coffin, making sure it was sealed okay, then went back to Wren until the moon would come out and a new night in school would start.
