Beyond The Night

Chapter two

"Wait! Aren't you supposed to be in prison?" I almost shouted at him.

"Your parents bailed me out before..." he trailed off.

"Before what?" my eyes grew wide as I asked expecting the worst.

"No time to explain now, hurry up and get Drake," as if on cue a blood curdling scream came from the basement.

"Drake!" I bolted downstairs as fast as I could and when I got there Drake was fighting, wait was that a little girl? I saw blood on the ground then looked at him, he got hit on his shoulder. It didn't take long for the wound to heal by itself, but he was still hurt at the time.

I totally forgot that Rey was in the house untill i heard him say behind me, "Take Drake out to my car, don't bother with getting weapons, there's plenty in there. I'll get her," I hesitated for about a second but then I decided to follow his order.

"Are you going to kill her?"

"GO!" At that I already had Drake on my shoulder racing up the stairs.

"What the hell is happening?" he asked as I got him into the old, beat up Neon.

"I have no idea, I wish I had atleast a clue,"

"Isn't he supposed to be in jail right now?"

I got in next to him, no way I was gonna ride in the front with my crazy godfather until i got some answers, "He is, but he said mom and dad bailed him out,"

"Where are they now?" he got the same worried face as me when Rey didn't finish his sentence.

"I don't know, he didn't finish what he was going to say,"

Was Drake crying? All my life I've only seen him cry once, and that was when I was about to drown for saving his toy when we were 9. "Hey, you alright?" I asked worried.

"I'm scared Lyco," WHAT! He was scared? After he's battled demons, witches, and eaten mom's meat loaf? But it was true, I heard his heart rate go up. If that didn't give it away, his eyes did. They were almost filled with tears.

I didn't know what to do, he's the one who always helped me with my fears. Not the other way around, "So am I," I sighed. He was the older brother, so he was supposed to be fearless right? I guess not, this time I have to be the shoulder to lean on... Litterally.

It was about five minutes until Rey came out of our house. He was carrying the little girl. She was dead. He opened the front right car door, set her down, and sprinkled water on her. Then she... Dissapeared? Rey closed the door, got in the driver's seat and started the ignition.

Drake sat up straight and with his eyes red and furious, he looked at our godfather and in a sharp tone he said, "Explain."
