Rayah

I look at Jackie, "Since your the best singer here...can you play us some music? Please? It's awkward..."

She looks at me, "No."

"Please!"

She shakes her head, finishing her homework and stuffing it in her bag, "I don't sing."

"Hah! THAT was a good one. You sing all the friggen time!" I laugh.

She glares at me and ignores me, flicking me in the forehead before stealing my phone.

Jace

I start on all of my homework at once, spreading it out on the floor around me, before Nic comes and stands over it all.

"You are such a weird kid," he shakes his head before walking away.

Rayah

Jackie suddenly looks up and out the window, looking back at me, "In the closet Rayah."

I study her and know that something's up, her jumping off the bed and locking the door. I hesitate before plopping in the closet.

Jace

I look up at the two and watch Rayah head to the closet before looking at Jackie and Nic, "What's going on?"

Rayah

Jackie sighs, "Turns out...it's feeding time for the undead. They built this place atop a cemitary. Idiots..." she mutters, looking at Jace, "Closet. Now."

Jace

I hesitate before standing and sitting with Rayah in the closet, watching Nic bolt to the window at the word 'undead.'

Rayah

I swallow, Jackie holding the door closed as someone bangs on it and brakes the lock. She swears and puts all her strength against it. I cuddle against Jace and sigh.

Jace

I wrap an arm around Rayah's shoulders and watch Nic throw a shield of light over the window and bolt to the door to help Jackie.

"This'll be fun," he mutters, stupidly smiling.

Rayah

The door bursts open and Jackie screams, a vampire pinning her against the wall. She looks at the closet, "Rayah! Get out of here...hurry..." the boy practically breaks her arm and she screams again, just before the vampire smiles and bites into her neck. She moans before kicking him off her, her face draining color.

Hell no...

I drag Jace out and run into the hallway,Se can handle herself. She's strong and can beat the crap Out of that guy...

Jace

I glance back as we run and find Nic fending for the both of them against the boy, fighting with a technique I could only marvel at. D*mn. If I wasn't a pacifist...

Rayah

I lead him into a metal closet thingy and lock us in it, swallowing as I squeeze my red shut, please me okay, Jacks. Your all I have left...

Jace

I watch Rayah, worrying for my own brother, and bring my arms around her from behind, "It's okay. They'll be fine. They can hold their own."

Rayah

I wrap my arms back around Jace's and sigh, nodding quickly and trying not to cry.

Jace

I feel a strange pain in my neck but ignore it, holding Rayah close. Nic can do this. He's... he's done it before. As a last resort... I'll go.

Rayah

I tighten my grip on him and keep my eyes closed, everything going silent. I open my eyes again and glance around, Jackie not coming to find me. Oh, no...
