Is This Real?

Chapter 6

Damon and I drove over to Jacob's to see what was so important. I mean, it can't be one of those creatures from Teen Wolf, right? Hopefully we're not dealing with anything like that.

I hopped out of the car and Damon followed me over to Jacob's garage.

"Hey." I said.

"Hey. Just to get this straight, I only invited your friend because it involves him, not because I wanted to or had to." Jacob said.

"Um, got it." I said. I mean wasn't it obvious that Jake didn't want Damon here?

"Oh and by the way, my name's Damon." Damon said.

"Do I honestly look like I give a shit?" Jacob said.

Damon held his hands up like 'I surrender.'

"So what was so important?" I asked.

"Well, another one of our legends is true. The cold ones." Jacob said.

"But isn't that like Damon?" I asked.

"Actually, no. There's two kinds of vampires. Ones that originated in Mystic Falls and ones that originated here. This wouldn't be a problem if they weren't headed back here." Jacob said.

"What do you mean two kinds?" Damon asked.

"Well, instead of burning in the sun, they have a sparkle quality." Jacob said.

"Sparkling?" I asked.

I looked at Damon and we both laughed. Jacob joined in.

"There's more. Instead of staking a vampire to kill them, you have to rip their head off. Also, their eyes." Jacob said.

"Do they sparkle too?" I asked.

Jacob and Damon both laughed.

"No, um, but they're not like brown or blue or green or anything. If they're on a diet of animal blood their eyes are a golden color. If they drink human blood their eyes are red." Jacob said.

"Are they dangerous?" I asked.

"Bells, they're vampires. Of course they're dangerous." Jacob said, glancing at Damon.

"These are weird types of vampires. How come I never heard of them?" Damon asked.

"They're almost instinct. There's only one group or family or clan or whatever you wanna call it, but they're the only ones left." Jacob said.

"I could kill them." Damon said.

"They're skin is like marble, so I doubt it. Also, they're stronger and faster. They also don't have to breathe." Jacob said.

"How many are there?" I asked.

"Seven. That's all I know." Jacob said.

"Well, thanks for letting us know." I said.

"No problem. Bella, be careful." Jacob said.

I just nodded and got back into my truck. Damon followed and did the same.
