SEVENTEEN

OCTOBER 31, 2013, 2:45 A.M.

The eight of them walked down the road, Chris, Angelo and Brian up the front whilst Alex, Lynn and Vinny were in the middle, leaving Ricky and Ryan at the back.

Ryan wasn't in the best mood. It wasn't just the fact that he couldn't ever be in a good mood, but the fact Ricky had insisted he come.

He was confused, at first. He had wondered why Ricky wanted to even talk to him, but he later figured out Ricky was doing it for Ryan's sake. If he had the heart, he'd thank Ricky.

Brian and Angelo started a small, tiny conversation as to what they were going to do. It didn't last long, because, before they knew it, they were already at their destination.

Chris looked around, nothing but trees and bushes to see.

"You sure this is the right place?" He asked, turning to Ryan who only glared.

"I'm sure. If you had some patience, you'd notice that we need to wait fifteen more minutes before they actually show up."

Ryan walked to one of the fairly tall rocks, leaning against it for a few minutes before Ricky joined him, his blue eyes bright in the night sky.

Ryan turned to him, still confused as to why Ricky was even close to him.

Ricky, practically read his mind, spoke up at that point, "When we make this... trade... Will I ever even see you again?"

Ryan gave him a small smirk, "You might see me, but no me."

Ricky then turned to Ryan, "You've been acting a lot nicer all of the sudden. Why?"

"More like, how." Ryan said, shifting positions on the rock to face Ricky, "I guess Ronnie missed a bit of my soul."

Ricky frowned.

He can't mean me. He told himself.

Ricky didn't understand, but after a little thinking, he did. The time Ricky and Ryan spent together when they were younger explained it all. They each put so much time into the other, that they both had a piece of the other. Metaphorically. Not to mention, Ricky had several items of Ryan's. That only increased everything. They both had each other, whether they knew it or not.

3 A.M

The rustle from behind them caused Ricky and Ryan to turn around, the others doing the same on their side.

Ronnie stepped out of the trees, his hands high, "I surrender!" He yelled, his smirk plastered to his face.

Dozens of demons followed him out, each having the same look Ronnie did.

The vampires and hunters weren't enough. There was no way they could fight and win.

Ryan sighed, moving forward, "Let's just go, Ronnie, okay?"

Ronnie nodded his head, giving a small bow to everyone before walking towards the woods, about to leave with Ryan before Ricky called out, stopping them in their steps.

"Give him his soul back, first."

Ronnie scoffed, turning to Ricky, "No. You really think I'm that stupid?"

Ricky shrugged his shoulders, "Yeah, I do. Because if you haven't noticed, Ryan belongs with us. Not with you."

Ronnie clicked his tongue before the light bulb came on, lighting up his idea, "I'll give him his soul back, right here, right now. There will have to be a price."
