    After failing to destroy Keira's base of operations, I anonymously tipped off the location of it to the Huntsguild and the Huntsmen raided the place, but by the time they got there, the place had been abandoned and they had taken everything with them, including the Strigoi that they had been storing here. Though, they didn't take the bodies of the vampaneze that Mira and I had fought. I knew this because my dad had invited me to the raid and I saw their bodies lying on the floor. 

 Of course, the Huntsmen planned on taking the bodies to see if they could get any information off of it. Though, I doubted they'd find out anything useful. 

 "Well it seems like this place is a bust," said one of the Huntsmen who was talking to my dad. 

"Who ever was here is already long gone and they took everything with them, well, everything except those bodies of course." 

 "Yeah, though it does seem rather suspicious to me that they would leave the bodies. I would also like to know how these two died," my dad said. 

 "Well,from the looks of it, it seems like these two were in a fight, which is obvious from the vampire nails in this one's heart."

 My dad nodded. "Yeah and it looks like this guy was stabbed in the neck with a blade. In fact, the cut looks very similar to that a Huntsblade would make."

 "So,does that mean a Huntsmen killed them?" 

 "One of them anyways." 

 "Right,well, we'll bag these bodies and analyze them. As for this place, we'll post Huntsmen here in case someone returns." 

 "Good idea,"my dad agreed. 

 "All right guys lets move out of here!" 

 "Well this was boring," I said to my dad. 

 My dad chuckled. "Don't worry, I'm sure there'll be more exciting raids in the future. For now, let's just head home."

 I agreed with him and we headed home, where I then called Mira to let her know what happened. After talking with her, we decided to meet up at her place tomorrow. I would've gone over today, but it was rather late, and I needed to do some homework. 

 Like everyone else, I hated doing homework, but I grinded through it anyways. I wouldn't finish until midnight, where I went to bed, or I was about to go to bed,but then I felt something crawling on me and I scrambled out of bed, only to see an ebony colored spider, with scale-like skin. 

 "What in the hell is that?" I said to myself. 

 The spider looked curiously at me and then launched itself on to me, where I desperately tried to get it off me, but the spider was so nimble and small that I had difficult doing so. Even so, I continued trying to rid myself of this spider, but it just kept jumping and swinging out of the way. 

 I was actually starting to get really pissed off, so while I tried to fend of the spider with my right hand, I grabbed my Huntsblade with my other hand,which was on my bedside table and I cut the spider web that it was using swing with and it landed on my shoulder, where it then bit me. Almost immediately I began to feel pain; it was as if I could feel every cell in my body being melted.    

  I didn't have much time, so I grabbed my phone,which was in my pocket and I called Mira. Now I know what your thinking, why am I calling Mira when I should be calling my dad? Well, even If I did call my dad for help, I wasn't sure if he knew of an antidote for whatever had been injected into me by the spider. Besides, my dad ended up having to work overtime anyways and I knew that Mira's father was a scientist and I figured he would know.
