Chapter 1
                Alone
Sunday night
Alexander POV
"I'll be gone for a couple of hour... be sure to..."
I cut Washington off, already know what to do when he leave for a business trip.
"First,lock the door and all the window. Second no one allowed in the house. Finally the panic room code is 1732. Dad I know."
He rolled his eyes as we walked down the stairs.
"The safe code is?"
"1789, like I'll forget where all the money is"
Important papers where in there too but money first. I waved good bye, quickly close the door before snow got all over the floor.

I looked at the guard right be the door, the bags under is eye was cleanly seen.
"You can go home"
He looked around the room, like I wasn't talking to him.
"Me, Sir?"
"Is there anyone one else in this room, you can go home."
"But,Sir"
The word Sir, made me want to punch something. When people call me Sir, it makes me feel old.
" Washington is your Sir, he just left. You look like you going to drop died from exhaustion"
" Its been 10 hours,I can ...."
" I will not have a man pass out on my floor, go home."
" I'm the only guard here, Washington ..."
" I can live without you, go home. I'm not saying it again."
The man sighed and left.

3 hours later
"I love you " Thomas said over the phone.
" I love you more" I rolled over on the couch to face the ceiling, a blush formed on my face.
" I love you times infinity"
" I love you times infinity + one"
" You love wining don't you"
" I in joy it yes"
" Bye Alex"
" Bye Tommy "
We talked for 2 hours... that was the shortness phone call we ever had. Silence felled the house,I was alone and bored.

A crash rang through my ears making me sit right. It sounds like it came from upstairs.Like I said, I was the only one in the house.Fear made me get to my feet and I waited silently to make sure it wasn't my imagination. A new sound of fear felled my ear and this sound didn't sound like a window breaking like it did upstairs. No...this sounded bigger, so what's the biggest, strongest and best way to escape my house for robbers. If you guessed my front door, you are correct. Let me give you run down of u house. The panic room is upstairs and the button to call the cops is in Washington study, and guess what... his study upstairs too. The person that needs all that stuff is downstairs.I don't know whose upstairs or why. Oh, you may think I can call 911 on my phone. My phone died,that's why I had to let Thomas go. This is no time to have a mentally break or panic attack,it's time to run. I run into the kitchen looking at the sliver civil wear, but there's people aren't vampire...I don't think there vampire. The sliver knife isn't the only thing to kill vampire through... I grabbed the weapon. I felt like Jason. A plan formed not a good plan because, I'm not in a good precision, but you can't say I didn't dye trying. I looked over the corner by the stairs a... round man was standing in front of the stairs.

  There were two stairs cases and he was standing in front of one by the door, I was next to the one unguarded. I tipped toe to the stairs, I held my breath when I went up. I didn't know a man was behind the corner when I finished my last step. 

"Hey, you!"  I ran, it didn't take time for him to catch-up to me. He tackled me to the ground, we wrestled for the knife in my hand.He grabbed my necklace,choking me till it's snaps.The knife cut through his skin, stabbing his heart. I pushed the corpse off me body, my breath heavy. His blood covered my shirt, my guilt for killing a man didn't show. A unfamiliar voice called out a unfamiliar name. The same name was called, fear crept up my spine as a unfamiliar face was shown. I got up quickly, the new man walked closer to me. Turning to the other hall to make a run for it, another man came up to me. I was cornered,my left and right had to very muscle man that can easy snapped me neck. The stairs wasn't a option, that fat guy was coming up ....he can sit on me and I'll be out like a light. When I looked at the man on my left calculating my chances of life if I tackle him, the man on the right grabbed my hoodie pull me back. A cloth covered my mouth and nose, in a phase of shock I take a breath. A wave a dizziness ran through me body, but I still struggle to get free. The knife again cut the his skin, hitting a muscle in his leg. He let me go, as he grunted in pain.

  I stumbled but ran in Washington study, locking the door. I hit the rosy red button and the silent alarm went off. I hid behind his desk, calming me breath. I took me phone out, unplugging the battery pack Peggy got me for Christmas out my phone. I had a feeling that this wasn't going to end in with rainbow and sunshine. I had to call the most important person in my life.   

"Hey Thomas"
"Hey babe, what's up"
"Um..."
How to I tell me boyfriend that people break into my house and I don't know if people trying to kill or kidnapped me.
"You know I love you right"
" Yeah, you just told me. Is everything okay,love?" 
The footsteps was getting closer and I know I wasn't got to see Thomas again .
"I love you, I love you so much" 
" Alex babe, What's going on ?"

The door to the study came down, my heart stopped. I hanged up the phone before Thomas could ask anymore questions. Running wasn't a option,I covered my mouth with my hand. "Where are you kid" The unfamiliar voice called. My phone started ringing....I didn't have it on silent. I was find, another fight was born. My glasses fell a cracking noise was heard, I was fighting blind. The knife was knocked out my hand, he got me in a head lock. The cloth was again over my face, I never held my breath for so long. I take in the drug that surrounded the cloth. My struggle slowed as fell unconscious, soon to wake to my nightmare. 

Thomas POV
I walked downstairs to see my mom and table full of paper work. "What are you doing up?" She asked, looking at me as I grabbed the car key. "Hamilton just called me and his seemed off. I tried calling home back but, he didn't answer. I'm going to go to check on him really quick." I answered. "I'll go with you" She said, making a hand motion for me to tossed her the car key. "You don't trust me with the new car don't you?" I said opening the door for her and handing her the keys.
"Your a smart kid"  
10 minutes later
  We came close to Washington house, police light was the only thing I process. I quickly jumped out the car, as we pulled up. People surrounded the house, I pushed my way through. The police officer keeping the crowd at bay, take on look at me and just let me go by. My mom call my name but I saw a body bag... and just thought. "It's not him,Thomas...we don't know we're he is." The sheriff said.A wave of relief ran through my body... but the last part stopped my heart. 

"Thanks for reading, have a wonderful night happy New year."
