The return of the Slayer - J.J Blake (the best novels to read .txt) 📗

"They're the same blood. this one from the masked girl, the other from you..." He said. His eyes went wide. "Your the masked girl." He said shaking. I smiled tilting my head. "The correct name for me is the Slayer." I told him. "Stay away from me." He finally said. "Adam I won't hurt you. I swear on all of my graves. You are one of the most important people in my life. I've been protecting you. All along. Did you ever look out your window during the night?" I told him. I gave him a Kelsie-squeeze hug. "You've been protecting me?" He asked. I nodded. I tapped the holy water necklace I gave him. "This is holy water, the number one vampire replent. I have had it for a very long time. It's yours now." I said. "How long?" I thought for a second. "Your going to think i'm crazy but a million years. Past lives of course. I'm not that old." I said laughing. "Really? You expect me to believe that you are this lengedary figure that is reincarnated every time she dies? I'm not stupid, Echo. Your lying. Tell me the truth. Now." He said standing to his full height. A foot taller than me. "You think i'm lying? Let me show you who I am truely." I said swearing. I made my powers swirl around me. To his eye it looked like dyed wind. "Get on my back. I have something to show you." I said He jumped onto my back and I carried him easily. I ran for the forest where I love to run. I flew out the school door passing princpal tater doing yoga. I ran into the forest into my treehouse. I launched through the window. I landed easily beacause of how much i've done it. Adam was very, very pale. "Adam. Welcome to my Slayer treehouse. One of thousands" I gave a bow to the room and looked at him. HE was still pale and pulled out my leather bound diary. "You found it! Where did you find it?" I exclamied. "Derby found it on the floor in my classroom. He was reading it." He said still pale. I walked through the dark treehouse that was rather large for it's size and opened a cupboard. I used my strong nightvision to read the labels of the potion bottles. I had these potions made by kelsie that I drink after the fights that left me wounded badly. I walked back to Adam with the bottle of liqud faith. No it's not ahcohol. It's actully liqud faith. I have faith,courage,healing,empathy,medicine,anger,saddness,happiness. All has a healing power. "Drink this. It's liqud faith." I said handing Adam the bottle. He poped the lid and drank it all. His face flushed with color. "Thanks. Wasn't that beer?" he asked looking at the bottle with regret.
"No it's made from herbs alone. I drink some after a bad fight." I shrugged one shoulder. I took the bottle back and set it on the table. "Let me give you the tour. Follow me." I showd him around the kitchen using the moonlight as my guide. I clapped my hands and the tines light came on. The shutters snapped shut to keep the light in. Then the light got brighter. "It does that so no one thinks that I'm in here." I said. "Cool, is this it?" he asked. "Nope, this is just the kitchen. Let me show you my bedroom." I said to him. I walked to the back window on clapped the lights off. The shutters opened. I sat on the sill and jumped landing on my feet a few feet under the same window. Adam looked out the window down toward me. "Come on jump. It won't hurt. If anything my powers will catch you." I said I made my powers whirl up at him. He jumped and landed next to me. I steadied him. I clapped my hands and the door flew open. I grabbed Adam's hand and quickly pushed him inside. I shut the door. Inside it was completely black and red. Beanbag chairs sat in one corner, one black one red. The walls each coordinated black and red. My bedspread is black. My pillows red. My closet was deep in the wall. My black couch is where Kelsie slept when we spend the night together. Of course I'm here more often then I’m home. The TV was off and I snapped my fingers. The door closed silently and the bathroom door opened. "I better get you back home. I come for you tomorrow night. We'll hang out then I promise. You cannot tell anybody this okay? Get on my back." I said. He did and I rushed to his house. It is about ten at night. I stopped at the front door. He hopped off. He looked pale again. Then the liquid faith made him flush with color again. I knocked on the front door. Adam's mom answered. "Oh hello Echo. Did you two walk here?" His mom asked looking for a car. I looked at Adam. "Sort of. I'll see you tomorrow Adam. I'd better get home. Goodnight." I said turning. "Do you want a ride back? There are a lot of scary people out at night." His mom asked me. I smiled turning to look at her. "Ma'am I'm perfectly capable of taking care of myself. A lot of night walkers wouldn't dare to mess with me." I said to his mom. I turned to Adam. "Remember. No telling about that thing about me." He nodded. "What thing?" His mom asked. "Goodnight." I simply said. I turned and walked down the driveway hands in my pockets. I heard the door close softly behind me. I frowned and thought over that conversation. I felt like slapping myself. I had said 'night walkers'. My term for vampires. My head hurt. I walked into my house silently. My mom is passed out on the couch. I scribbled a note and stuck it to her forehead so she’d she it. I looked at the clock. Midnight. How had it gotten so late? I stood on the doorstep and locked the door with my key. “Goodnight mom.” I whispered. I turned around shoving my key into my combat boots. I took off running, a little faster now that Adam was off me. I jumped into my tree house, landing with the bend of a knee. I clapped my hands and the shutters closed.
I went out of the same window I always did and went into my room.
I shut the door and snapped my fingers. The bathroom door twisted open.
“TV on lights off.” I said whispering it into my remote. The lights snapped off and the TV turned on. I lay on my bed channel surfing when I came to a news caster that was doing an emergency news cast. I gulped when I saw the headline.

Proof that vampires are real!

Dang it. I watched as the reporter played a video of ME! I was standing in the same clearing I was yesterday when I slayed a vampire. In the video I am standing still with a stake in my hand. The camera zoomed in on the stake. It zoomed in on my hooded figure. Then finally it zoomed out. A vampire (I knew, I was there) came running at me. I lifted my arms and flew to the top of the trees, the camera following my every movement.
The thick locks of my hair were starting to come loose of the knot I had tied them in. One single lock of hair slid out under the hood of that Slayer jacket of mine (I was wearing that day) into the camera’s view. Thankfully it was unrecognizable. The vampire (Again I knew) launched at me clawing my face. I staked him and he’d turned to dust. I turned my back toward the camera and my Slayer logo came into perfect view. Sewn crooked like italic, the word was as clear as a sunny day. If I had only known the camera was there. I could’ve leaded the vampire away from it toward somewhere else. I hadn’t reached my powers out. Stupid. I thought smacking my forehead. I put my remote an inch from my mouth and whispered “Closet open TV paused. TV rewind.” Those things did them by their selves. I stepped into my walk in closet shutting the door behind me. I slid my hands over the black clothing. All engraved somewhere with my Slayer logo. I pulled out a pair of black leggings with my Slayer logo running down the side of the left leg. I also paired it with a black torn skirt and combat boots. I took out the black Slayer jacket. I put a century Goth top to finish the combination. With everything on I put on my Slayer earrings and my Slayer gloves. The funny thing is that these all came from the Goth store that kelsie runs. I put on my Slayer ring. With crosses lining it. I grabbed my coffin bag and headed to school. It was already the next day of course. I looked at the building of my high school.
Finnegan high school. The principal was standing outside trying to control a riot act. I jogged foreword to get a closer look. “Oh no not you too!” Principal Tater said looking at my black Slayer clothing. The riot act had kids shouting “The return of the Slayer!” or “The Slayer’s return!” With signs saying these things;
The Slayer returns!
Praise the Slayer!
The Slayer rules!
Slayer returns!
Save us Slayer!
We love you Slayer!

What the heck! I know I save their lives like every night, but come on.
A girl turned and looked at me. She saw all the Slayer logos. “Are you the Slayer?” She asked me. “I got these at the Goth store downtown.” I said not wanting to lie to her. They squealed and got into their cars and drove away. I stormed up the school steps, my combat boots making me. Everyone had something taped to their locker of smaller versions of the signs outside. I felt like I am trapped in a nightmare. Where everyone knows about the Slayer. Oh wait that’s happening! Adam saw me and did a double take. “Could you be more obvious?” he stage whispered at me. I rolled my eyes. I opened my locker and saw the second note in red.
I opened it slowly.

Be not her maid, since she is envious;
Her vestal livery is but sick and green
And none but fools do wear it; cast it off.
It is my lady, O, it is my love!

I smiled at the lines. Romeo and Juliet is so romantic. I slid the letter into my math book. I shut my locker, heading deeper into the halls of the living hell called high school.

When school was finally out, I raced to the Goth store to help
