Shadows in the Dark: Rise of Three

Chapter XIV

Jake throws me a wet towel and I start wiping the blood off the body's face. The blood covers off easily. It's not Zach. I sigh with relief. Then I start to panic. Where is Zach?

"Zach! Are you here?!" I shout. I close my eyes and search for Zach telepathically. I find him. "He's in the closet. Go!" Jake goes over to the closet and opens the door. Zach is laying there with several gashes all over his body. I put my hands on his chest and focus on knitting his skin back together. Healing all of his cuts.

"Jake you need to feed him. He lost too much blood."

"Why can't you do it?"

"I can try." I bite my wrist and put it on Zach's mouth. He starts to drink from my wrist. After a few minutes he stops drinking and I pull my wrist away. He wipes the extra blood off his mouth with his wrist.

"Thanks."

"No problem." I say giving Zach a simile, and he smilies back.

"Bloody hell! What happened in here?" Asks Isabelle.

"I don't know. Someone was waiting for me when I walked in. I heard some movement in here that's why I blurred off earlier. I came down here and he threw a knife as me. I blocked it and we fought. I killed him just as I was falling to the ground. I tried to crawl into the closet to heal, but I just passed out."

"Wow. Are you ok?" Isabelle asks.

"Ya. Veronica healed me."

"Good. Because I was thinking we need a serious night out." She says.

"Really Is?" Asks Jake. He motions to the blood soaked floor.

"Right. Jennifer can clear it up."

"Are you serious?" I ask.

"Actually she is. Everybody get ready to have some fun. Dress for a club because we are going out tonight." Says Jennifer. She waves her over the area of the kitchen blood evaporating as she goes. "There. All done. Not let's go party!"

I help Zach up and we head to our room to change. I take a quick shower to rinse all the blood off me then I blow dry my hair and curl it. I go to the dresser and pick out a black halter top and black skinny jeans. I put in black dangle earrings that are just three swirled plastic pieces. I put in tan foundation, black eyeliner, and black mascara.

I hear a someone coming toward my door. I put on my 10 cm high heeled black knee high boots. I grab a set of throwing knives from the night table and stand by the door. I hear a knock and I open it.

"Are you ready?" Asks Jake. "Wow! You look gorgeous!"

"Thanks. And yes. I'm ready." I hook the throwing knives on my belt and grab my leather jacket. I take Jake's hand and we head out to go have fun for once.

***************

We stand in line for the club and wait for our turn for the bouncer to check our IDs. Jennifer says she can get us in without IDs. If Jennifer was a normal teenager I wouldn't have believed her, but she's not so I believe her.

It's our turn and Jennifer works her magic. "You don't need to see our IDs. We're old enough to go in." She says as she runs her hand down his arm.

"Go right ahead miss. Have fun!" He says. She kisses him on the cheek and we walk into the club.

"How did you do that?" I ask in amazement.

"It's standard mind control. All vampires and half vampires can do it. I'll teach you some time."

"Sweet!" Adds Zach. "So it's like in Star Wars where the Jedi's have mind powers right?"

"Sure nerd. Sure. Like that." Jennifer says sounding unimpressed.
