End of Chapter 11
I cleaned up my plate, putting it in the sink with intentions to clean it later that দিন when I returned. I made my way to my room, finding some clothes that I wouldn't mind getting getting dirty in the sewer system. Once I was dressed I dropped to my knees পরবর্তি to my bed, bowing my head as I prayed to a God that I was now questioning.
'Father, please watch out for everyone. We need your guidance and your assistance, this is going to be difficult...possibly the most difficult thing we've done. Please watch over us, guide us on the correct path, the path that will send these demons back to hell.'
I ব্যক্ত the words, but for some reason my হৃদয় wasn't sure that I was really asking. I did want someone অথবা something to watch out for my friends, I didn't want anything to happen to them...but for some reason I had a feeling that something was going to happen to me...and whatever was going to happen was not going to be good.
Chapter 12
I quickly changed into some older clothes, knowing that we were going to be going to the sewers before I headed out to meet everyone else. I thought I would be one of the first people there..but much to my surprise I was one of the last people to show. Every turned and looked at me, a few people calling out encouragement about what were going to do.
"Alright, today is the দিন we send these abominations back to hell." I said, pausing to let everyone calm down. "This is not going to be easy, I ask that আপনি all stay vigilant. I'm sure they know we are coming, we have to stay on our toes and expect anything."
"How do we kill them?" John asked, a few other people voicing the same question.
"I'm not sure, I've never killed one." I admitted. "I believe that if আপনি remove their head অথবা pierce their হৃদয় they will die."
I think a few people were shocked দ্বারা that news, a few of them looked suddenly nervous while a few others started to back down the hallway.
"If আপনি aren't certain that আপনি want to do this আপনি are free to go. No one will hold this against you, everyone has the choice to stay অথবা go..but আপনি must decide soon for we must be going."
I was surprised when a few men caught my eye before bowing their heads and walking back down the alley, towards town and their families. I meant what I had said, everyone had the option to stay অথবা go and I wouldn't force anyone.
"Alright," I ব্যক্ত as I looked around and quickly counted the number of men that were left in our 'hunting' group. "We have eight men, I figure two teams of four should be safe. Please do go off on your own, we need to stick together and attack as a group."
I chose who was going to be in which group, naming Michael to be the leader of the other group. We all agreed on our groups, promising to contact eachother if anything happens. We decided to start in two different spots, hoping that we could have the element of surprise.
My group went down the gutter that the monster had used yesterday. I went first, holding a lantern high as the others followed me down. We made our way down the grimy, disgusting system all of us keeping our eyes open, so anxious that we jumped when something moved.
There was no sign of anything down here, well..anything except for mice and the occasional rats. I led our group deeper into the tunnel system, the light getting dimmer and dimmer as we went further under town. I did my best to keep our group together, checking every few steps to make sure that everyone was together. It wasn't until I heard man scream my name that I noticed Thomas wasn't with our group, a few সেকেন্ড later his scream was heard again..this time his scream choked off..then silence. The entire group looked at me, as if they were waiting for me to tell them what to do. My head was screaming that we needed to run, we needed to get above ground and as fast as we could.
"Get above ground." I whispered as the men turned and started running.
We were about half way to the access point when I heard a scream and realized that James was now missing from our group, which now was made up of me and Richard. He stood staring at me for a সেকেন্ড before we both took off running as fast as we could, hoping and praying that we would make it above ground.
James had made it to the ladder and was about half way up it when I saw it. The monster was about twenty feet away from me, a sick smile on his face as he wiped his hand across his mouth, a red stain spreading after his hand.
"James go!" I yelled as I watched the vampire take a step closer to where I was.
"No, James...stay." The beast said, his voice joking.
"Carlisle?" James asked, I could almost make out his face in the light that poured down the grate.
"Go! Tell the others." I yelled as the vampire took another step, closing the distance between us to mere feet.
"You are not afraid?" It asked as it stepped পরবর্তি to where I stood.
"No." I said, my হৃদয় pounding uncontrollably.
"You lie," He laughed as he rested a hand on my shoulder. "You should have listened to my warning Carlisle."
I was about to say something when I heard the sound of James coming back down the ladder, and while I looked up the best took advantage and attacked me. I felt something slice my neck, followed দ্বারা a burning sensation that was so intense I had to fight to remain conscious. The least thing I remember was hearing the vampire laugh, followed দ্বারা James' scream.
