The New Vampire in Town

chapter 11

"Very well, Sunshine, if you won't help your poor grandfather, then I guess he'll have to take care of vampire business himself!" Polidori sneered as he left his home with a garlic wreath and bows with toilet plungers for arrows with a few stakes.

Sunshine rolled her eyes slightly. Polidori walked off then to do his nightly hunting. Oskar was hiding behind the house. Demetria started growling, not knowing if anyone heard her not. Sunshine sent one last text to one of her friends. Polidori went off, ready to take on any creatures of the night.

Oskar waited until the coast was clear and looked ahead. "Demetria...?" he whispered, he thought he saw the girl, but he wasn't so sure if he did or not.

Demetria didn't know her spot was right by Polidori's walking.

Polidori left his granddaughter home alone, then went along and looked around, gasping as he saw Demetria's form. "I've never seen anything like that in my books..." he whispered to himself, then smiled darkly. "No matter..."

Oskar then went to Sunshine's and knocked on it, as opposed to knocking on the front door like a normal kid.

Demetria kicked a tree harshly, but in a way not to damage it. Polidori stalked closer with a net to trap Demetria in. Demetria growled and muttered British curses.

"Hello, creature of the night!" Polidori called in a very threatening tone as he came right to the girl. "Surrender to Pallus Polidori!"

Demetria whirled around and hissed. Polidori growled, trying to trap her and then take her to the family basement.

Demetria tried to get free. She hissed again. "Bloody git." she growls.

Polidori struggled a little easily due to being an old man, but he was able to capture her and smirked in victory. "Downstairs you go!"

Demetria growled and struggled a little.

Sunshine went and opened the window, as it was Oskar.

"Hello, Sunshine." Oskar smiled at the mortal he had strong feelings for.

"Hi Oskar." Sunshine smiled.

"I-I have something to tell you... About my family..." Oskar said, shyly, even more shy than when he first met the girl.

Sunshine looked at him.

"T-T-The thing is..." Oskar gulped. "I-I'm not like... Other boys..."

Polidori kept dragging Demetria and slammed the front door open. "Sunshine, I finally have proof!"

Demetria hissed. "Let me go, you stupid idiot!" She growls.

Sunshine looked surprised and then went to see.

Oskar followed Sunshine, having climbed into her window. They came to the front door to see. "Demetria...?" he whispered, a bit in shock and worry.

Polidori was doing his best to restrain Demetria. "Silence, blood-sucking spawn!"

Demetria glared at Polidori. "I don't drink blood..." she hisses.

Sunshine looked scared, as Demetria was in her vampire form.

"I told you they existed, Sunshine," Polidori grinned. "Don't be afraid, Oskar, she won't hurt you now!"

Oskar looked scared, but for Demetria, he then looked angry. "Let her go, she wouldn't hurt anybody!"

Demetria looked at Oskar.

Sunshine looked at Oskar. "You know this thing?!" She gasps.

Oskar blinked. "Umm... Well..."

"I don't know what you are, demon, but you're coming with me to the basement!" Polidori threatened Demetria, ignoring his granddaughter and her friend.

Demetria tried to struggle, but was taken. Sunshine looked at Oskar still.

"Sunshine... There's something I need to kind of tell you..." Oskar said nervously to the girl he liked.

Polidori kept talking Demetria downstairs. "I may need some help..." he grumbled.

Demetria chuckled darkly.

Sunshine looked at him. "In a second, Oskar... I'm going to help my grandfather." she says quickly, and went to help.

"But, Sunshine!" Oskar cried out. He decided to follow her, he also hoped Demetria wasn't going to get hurt, Polidori may have been a lame vampire hunter, but he was actually dangerous when actually caught someone.

Polidori had one hand on his back as he walked down his basement stairs to lock up Demetria. Demetria struggled. Sunshine helped get her down and lock her up.

Polidori opened the cage and locked Demetria in with Sunshine's help. "That'll hold you! I told you, Sunshine, there are vampires and monsters in this world, now the whole village will know!"

"I don't feel so well..." Oskar didn't like the sight of this at all. "I have to tell the others..."

Demetria tried touching the cage. Sunshine looked at Oskar.

"Stay in there, I'll call the local news team!" Polidori beamed, rushing upstairs to find the nearest telephone.

Demetria shook her head.

Oskar blinked, then looked back to Demetria sadly. "Sunshine... I need to tell you something... I never had the courage to tell you this before because of your grandfather... But... Well... I-I'm a..."

Sunshine looked at him.

Oskar bit his lip. "Sunshine, I.... I'm a...."

"He's a 'victim', he is the only one who knew about me, but he kept my secret." Demetria butts in.

Sunshine looked at the girl in shock then to Oskar. "Go, go and tell your school they're free." she says, believing Demetria.

Oskar sighed, he still couldn't tell Sunshine. "But, guys, I--"

Demetria looked at him. Her expression was urging him to go.

Sunshine started to push him out. "Go on, she can't hurt you now." she says.

Oskar blinked, then went out the door and sighed. At least he could warn everyone, he ran off back to the acedemy, changing into a bat, and flapping his wings, the easier and quicker way. Demetria looked relieved. She then looked at Sunshine.
