I woke up on the shredded couch with Duffy and Alan next to me.
They didn't say anything.
They didn't need to.
I sat up and wondered what to do. I couldn't stay here. Out of question. The bad vampires would easily find me. "Hmmm, Alan what was the other bad group of vampires called?" I yawned.
" The Superiors," Alan said wincing.
"Cocky much?" I joked. "Yes. They call themselves that because they believe they are far superior to mortals or any other mythicals," Alan explained.
"Oh"
Reality hit me again. My parents are dead. My loving, caring parents. Who tucked me in. Who took me to the hospital when I broke my arm and brought tons of candy and flowers. I would never see them again.
I started to sob.
Alan gave me a long gentle hug and let me slobber and drool all over his shoulder. Duffy joined me in crying. "I'm so so so sorry, Quinn," Duffy screeched. I sniffled and smiled a little. "It's okay ,Duffy," I told him. I carefully rose from my place on the couch. "Now I'm gonna go take a shower. I think we still have electricity," I said and crawled up the stairs to my old shower. Luckily we did. I scrubbed and cleaned and finally I was done. To my pleasure, I found some of my clothes that hadn't been ripped. A navy tshirt and maroon skinny jeans were quickly pulled on. I laced on some boots and felt a lot better. My silky hair flew behind me as I trotted downstairs.
Alan stared at me as though he didn't recognize me.
"You look stunning," he finally stuttered. I grinned. "You can use my shower," I told him. And to Duffy I said,"How about you use my parents. Third door to the left down the hall." Duffy dashed away. After a few minutes Alan came down. He looked really good, clean.
And he smelled good too. We snuggled on the couch until Duffy joined us. "So what's the plan, boss?" Duffy asked.
"Let's pick up Melody and go find the Athens," I said with a smile.
You haven't seen the last of us, Superiors.
