A Vampire's Pain (Book 2)

War/ Numbers

  I could hear her out of breath as the sun started to rise. I as vampire never felt tired. I could go on for days like this. However she was ready to fall over. I looked the holes of the mask she had on. I could have finished her but I knew our deal. We were allowed to try and kill each other by night but by day, we pretend that nothing was going on between us. Sadly the is about the sixths time the sun has interrupted us in the middle of the battle. Just when one of was about to give in.

"Tired Andrea." I called across the the baseball field. She looked at me.

"You wish vampire." Just then the sun raised from behind the trees. Time was up. Another night was gone. Another night where time was wasted. We both turned and faced the morning sun. The alarm on my phone went off. Right, I had some place to be right now.  I put my sword away and walked away from the baseball field.

 It didn't take me long to get home. I set my sword down by the door and walked out into the back yard where everyone waited on me. There was at least  thirty to thirty-five vampire waiting for me. I stood looking at them. Some I recognized as Liz, who was Darren's ex. Her brothers were here too. Kevin  and Emily, Darren's older brother and younger sister. I looked at them and they looked at me once they noticed I was standing there.

"Thank you all for coming. I know that I am asking for a  lot from you but, but this is for a good reason." I started giving my small speech. "Luke is out there, and he has one of our own. We have asked the council many times for help but they are afraid to step up. If we don't do something to stop him, he will take Darren's body as his own. And who knows what he will do once he has all of Darren's power." Everyone started talking at once.

"Young lady, do you know what your doing. Do you know that this will create a war as soon as we get there." Some of them agreed with the man.

"You should just walk away this and see it as a lost. You will never make it against Luke." They had come here just to tell me to back down. They didn't want me to go on with this.

"THEN WHY ARE YOU HERE!" Jasper shouted among them.  "Why did you come all this way if you were just going to waste your time." He said to the two men.

"Look at her, she can't be more than a year old. She going to start a war that she won't even win." A women called out.

"So you rather her let my brother's soul die?" Kevin spoke up. I shock my head.

"I am not weak!" I called out. Half of them laughed at me. I gripped my sword tight. He didn't see or hear me move. By the time he saw me it was too late. I had my sword at his throat. 

"If anyone has anything else to say now time to say it!" No one moved or said a word. "Now, if you don't want to help, LEAVE. If you aren't willing to put your life on the line LEAVE. But if you stay no this, you might not make it back."  I put my sword away and walked threw the crow. I didn't watch but I knew no one had left. I stood up on the deck again looking at them.

"We have seven weeks before we go after Luke. We have work to do."

 I was grateful that everyone has came. I was getting closer and closer to Luke. I just needed to kill Andrea.
