"What did that demonic say?" I ask Pete whilst we are walking.
"That there is going to be a 'feast' for the demonic vampires here tonight." He replies. I nod my head.
"Okay..." I reply. I take a deep breath,
"If they are the deomic vampires then it is best we wait in treese, spread out far enough. Demoic vampires tend to rip their meals apart and take their time so there is probably going to be a few werewolves around to keep look out." I tell the others. They nod their heads.
"Pat and Matt, you head South, James and Pete you head North. Will you are West, and I will go East." I tell them. They nod their heads again. I turn around and start walking when I feel someone grab my arm. I turn around,
"Be careful." Will says before turning away. I nod even though he can't here me,
"You too!" I shout at his back before walking in the opposite direction. When I see a good tree to climb I jump up and climb it as quickly as I can. I find a stable branch up quite high and hull myself onto it and sit there waiting. Waiting for 'the feast' and the stupid demonics to come. I take out a hunting knife I have and take a look out of it. I turn it so I see a different angle, just to see and arrow flying towards me. I drop the knife and jump down but keep hold of the branch. I then see the demonics charging so I hull myself back up and decide to take a risk by tree jumping. I land on the tree next to me and start to move quickly with the demonics following me. I see in the distance a fire so I turn to the tree on my left and start to tree jump that way. A small group of demonics come after me whilst the others start running towards the fire.
"Shit." I mutter. I decide to take on the ones below me and jump down. I take out two swords and start to swing them in many directions as they slice through anything in their way. When I finally reach the last one I seem to snap out of my daze and notice the blood around me. I gag, momentarily forgetting about the last one and just as it takes a jump to attack it falls down. I look to see Matt with a gun in his hand. There is a scar running down his face. He jerks his head to the side as if to say 'come on' and we take off running towards the fire. The rest are all fighting demonics but not being very successful. It is as if I am in my daze again and suddenly everything in my way becomes death. I snap out of it to see a few demonics still alive but are being delt with. Matt and Pete are on the floor and I drop my swords rushing towards them. Matt's leg has a massive scar running down it and blood pouring out. Pat joins me and quickly starts to sort it out. I turn to see Pete with James checking his pulse. I crawl over and slap Pete hard on the face. He grunts. Relaxing my shoulders I look around and see Will staring at me. He shakes his head snapping out of his own daze,
"We need to get somewhere safe, unfortunately we can't get back to base. Does anyone know somewhere near?" He asks us. They all shake their heads except me. I have a miny debate with myself over what to do. Looking at Pete's unconscious state seems to bring my final decision.
"I know a place. Just don't ask questions." I whisper. James who was sitting right next to me gives me a confused look. Taking a deep breathing repeat myself. "I know a place. Just don't ask questions." They all nod except Pete cause he is unconscious. Will comes over to us.
"You and me take him, and Pat and James you take Matt. We need to get there as soon as possible." He tell us. I agree and take one of Pete's arms slinging it around my shoulder. Will does the same and we then lift him up. I grunt slightly as I adjust to Pete's weight. I look over my shoulder to see Pat, Matt and James are already to go so I nod my head in the direction we are going, and we slowly begin our way there.
~~~~~~~~
When we finally arrive into the clearing the house is at, Pete is awake now, but is still very wobbly on his feet so Will and I are still supporting him.
"The house is to everyone's left." I shout and we all turn around just to see the door open. A little girl comes running out and towards us in nothing but her pyjamas. Not even wearing slippers. I gently let go of Pete's arm knowing what is going to happen.
"Mommy!" She screams and jumps up to hug me. I catch her and hold onto her tight.
"Hey munchkin," I whisper into her hair causing her to giggle. I put her back down on the ground and take in her face trying to absorb as much of her as I can. "What are you doing outside in the early hours of the morning with no shoes? Come on. We need to go or you're going to freeze!" I tell her. I know that the others are staring at my back but I choose to ignore them. She giggles and nods her head.
"Have you been a good girl for Alex?" I ask. She smiles wider. I give her the squint eyes.
"Know she bloody hasn't. She makes me dress up as barbie." Alex grumbles. I turn to look at him. His eyes are dull with big bags under them from lack of sleep. He walks over and gives me a tight hug, so he can lift me up and twirl me around.
"Hally! You scared the living life out of me. I get a phone call saying you're back in the game for the very last time, and you're going to take down the demonics for good. Shit Hal. You fucking scared me!" He goes on once he puts me down. I feel a tugging on my jacket and I know it is Millie, probably confused as to why there are five other people with us.
"Alex now is not the time. There are people." I say. He turns to look at them and then back at me and then them.
"Holy shit. You must be Pat. Matt and James." He says pointing to each of them. He then looks to Will and Pete, "And then you must be the famous Will and Pete." He seems to get more excited at the mention of Pete. I sigh,
"Uh yeah... Sorry but we don't know who you are." James says. Alex gives me a look,
"Of course she wouldn't mention me. Pete... You might want to sit down for this." He says. Pete immediately plonks himself on the ground. "I'm Alex. Hally and Pete's half-brother." He says. Pete turns pale and for the first time I meet Will's face. He seems to relax a bit but his eyes stay focused on Millie who is hiding behind my legs. Gently I take her around me and crouch down.
"I think your uncle Pete is feeling a little shocked. Why don't you go and give him one of your special hugs?" I whisper into her ear. She looks nervous but hesitantly makes her way towards Pete. Everyone watches as she wraps her small arms around Pete's neck.
"Hello Uncle Pete. It is very nice to meet you." She says.
