"Hey Chester I think we're safe to start heading home now, it's been a couple of days and I think we've left enough false trails."
"I think you're right, it's time to get back to the sewers." He said giving me a sly grin and a wink.
"Ew seriously can we please stop referring to the underground bunker as a sewer?"
I love Chester I really do, but he can be a bit gross at times. We've had each others back for the past five years now and have done pretty good for ourselves. We're the leaders of a small community established within the sewers, we figured what better way to mask our scent from the werewolves and vampires then to literally be living in shit.
"Avery did you hear that?" He said as he put out an arm to halt me.
I stopped walking and started to listen to my surroundings. One breath later I heard it, someone was following us.
"Chester! Come on run!"
We took off at a heart pounding speed, but it was no use. We heard a silky laugh that seemed to be coming from all around us. We had no clue which way to keep running. We stopped and
stood back to back and started turning in circles.
"That was cute, y'all certainly took me by surprise."
To my left we saw a vampire sauntering out of hiding and straight ahead from me came another one.
"Shit..."
The one straight ahead had piercing blue eyes and dark auburn hair. He had a face that would make the angels from heaven fall just to get a look at it.
"I'm Christoph and my partner over there is Eiken. So what brings two morsels like yourselves to our neck of the woods?"
"Well honestly we heard the ugliest vampires lived out here and we wanted to see if we could catch a glimpse; and let me tell you we are not disappointed."
Christoph started snarling and his eyes turned to ice. Before I knew what was happening Christoph disappeared from in front of me and was now facing Chester.
I quickly pivoted placing Chester behind me so I would be facing Christoph. He looked irritated, like I was some annoying fly he wanted to swat away.
"I'm sorry about my friend, he doesn't know how to keep his big mouth shut."
"Maybe I could I help him out with that...?" Christoph said with a cold, dead stare.
"Look we don't want any trouble, we didn't even know vampires were inhabiting this part of the region."
"Well I think it's a bit late for that don't you think? You see I think I'm going to kill your smart mouth friend by ripping off his head, but not before I remove his tongue. After that I think we'll have some fun with you."
He had this sick sadistic grin playing on his lips and his friend didn't look much better.
"Look just let us go; I'm sure we can work something out."
"I don't think we need to work anything out. You see we already have what we want and there's nothing more you have to offer."
He had a huge grin stretching from ear to ear. His fangs gleamed as if he kept them polished like a rare gemstone.
"Fuck, think Avery think! We have to get out of here!"
"We can tell you where to find a wolf compound."
Christoph and Eiken exchanged a look of amusement.
"Sorry doll we're not looking to adopt any pups right now, fleas don't really suit us what with all the biting they do. We prefer to bite not be bitten."
