like to.”
“Thanks Angela. Your amazing. How's Sam?”
“Hungry.”
“Why is he hungry?”
“He hasn't drunk any blood since you left.”
“Tell him he has to drink. He can't die because of me.”
“I've told him he has to drink but he won't listen to me. He says he'll only drink from you.”
“I can be back in a week minimum though.”
“He'll die in that long.”
“Is he weak as well?”
“Extremely weak.”
“Will you feed him? Personally?”
“I will have to force him.”
“Please Angela. I can't lose him too.”
“Okay but I'll say you told me to and I'll do it in a couple days to see if he sees sense.”
“Thank you Angela. I've got to go now. Bye.”
“Bye. Come back soon. We need you.” I clicked the call to a stop and walked back into the hall. I beckoned to Ethyl and she came over.
“Everything's in place. They'll be ready from today and they'll leave you and me alone. “
“That's great. Well done.” she said quietly to me then she said loudly to everyone. “Its time to leave now. Everybody grab your things and lets get to our cars.”
We had decided that it would be safe to drive 7 ½ of the 8 miles and walk the rest of the journey. That way the vampires on guard would hear us coming and be ready for us. Me and Ethyl got into Ethyl's car and we started onto the road leading the 13 cars to the vampire school.
I got out my phone and text Sam;
Sam, its Lucy. I'm sorry for being away this long but I had a life debt that I had to pay off and that is what I am doing now although I have had to sacrifice some things for this. As you'll notice when I get back I've got an addition to me but it was a sacrifice I was willing to take. I love you Sam x
I got a reply almost immediately.
Lucy, please come back soon. I miss you so much. I understand about life debts and please come back in one piece at most with your perfect smile and I don't care about any additions to you. I love you x
I smiled to myself and flipped my phone down, put it in my pocket and promptly fell asleep.
“Lucy. Lucy wake up.” Ethyl was shaking me vigorously and when I opened my eyes I realised we were in the allotted car park we had decided to park our cars. I took a deep breath and got out of the car and joined the group of us in the car park. Ethyl came in front of me and started walking towards the exit of the car park. We all followed her and as we rounded a corner the castle that had been made into a school.
“Lucy will go in first and start the attack because her hair covers her tattoo. Be prepared to fight as soon as she goes in everyone. Are you ready Lucy?”
“Ready as I'll ever be.” I said and I walked to the front of the group. I walked past Ethyl and up to the doors to the castle which were wide open. I walked calmly into the castle and turned to the left where I saw a huge vampire. “Hello.” I said to him before he had noticed me. He turned to me with blazing red eyes and he obviously thought I was a human because of my lack of my turner tattoo and he started at me. I quickly flashed my eyes red and he suddenly stopped.
“Lucy? Your bringing us the anti-vampire group.” he asked in his deep voice.
“Yes. That's me. I need you to get all the other vampires that are helping to attack all the of them and I need you to get the old lady and bring her inside. She's the mother of my school's Head. She must not be touched.” I told him and he immediately took of outside. I followed him to the arch of the door and stood and beckoned the humans into the firing line of the vampires I could see in the bushed and in the trees ready to attack. Ethyl cleverly stayed a bit behind the group and before the battle begun, two guards marched her into the school and next to me in vampire speed.
The humans started running and vampires surrounded them in seconds with guns pointed at them. The humans created a circle and got their guns and started shooting at the vampires. Four or five of us went down but most of them stayed up and started to fire their guns. Andrea got shot in the stomach first and she didn't go down. So she got shot in the thigh. She fell to her knees and she got shot in her head. Blood splattered over the nearest humans and vampires and the trees.
Next to go was Alan. He got shot twice in the head and went down creating a pool of blood all around him. I could smell his blood and my eyes turned a very deep red. The two guards that had brought Ethyl out of the battle gripped my arms and made sure I stayed in place.
“You can't get hurt Princess. After we have finished killing all of the vampires fighting will feed, you can feed with them if you would like. We've heard about your extraordinary blood-lust and we have blood donors if you would like them.” He said and gripped my arm a bit tighter.
“Thank you. Give me all the names of your fighters and I will ensure that they are rewarded for helping a Princess.” I said to him and he bowed and smiled at me. By now all the humans were dead and what looked like the lead fighter was approaching me. He bowed and smiled at me.
“We have finished killing Princess and we need you to give us permission to feed.” he said.
“You have permission and I shall join you with your permission.” He nodded enthusiastically and leaded me to a human with only a foot wound.
“This is the one with the most blood. This one is yours Princess.” I nodded and then went to my knees and gripped the body of a man and pushed his head to the side. I growled in an inhumane way and bit into the neck of the man. I heard more growling and biting so that I assumed that every one else was enjoying their meals.
I sucked the delicious blood out of the man which burnt the back of my throat when I swallowed. I loved human blood. I carried on sucking until there was no blood remaining in the body and I lowered him to the floor. I wiped the blood off of my mouth with my sleeve. All of the vampires were looking at me and my red eyes. I smiled at them and then I followed a vampire inside the school where Ethyl was. She saw my red eyes and smiled.
“I see you've fed then.” she said trying to hold back a laugh and failing. Her laugh was like music to my ears and I started laughing too. I turned to the guard. “Is there somewhere we can stay for a few days while we regain our strength?” I asked him.
“Yes. We organised two rooms to be made available for you a week ago when we got the phone call about you two. Our Head has also asked for you to do a week of teaching since you will be here and you have vast skills.”
“That is great. It will give me a chance to look over your kids. What lesson will I be teaching?”
“You'll be teaching Spells and Witchcraft and you'll be teaching Year 1 and 2 because you've done those lessons before and you can even do Year 3 and 4 if you would like.”
“The would be brilliant. Thank you.”
We then walked to our rooms in silence. There was a list of names on my table and map of the school. I looked over the list of names and saw no one I recognised so I left and went to sleep since it was the day.
A vampire knocked on my door and woke me up. I opened the door to him and he gave me a small smile.
“Princess, your Year 2 lesson is about to begin. I have been told to escort you to your lessons all day today so you know your way around and so you are protected.” He said.
“Okay. I just get changed a minute. Come in and take a seat.” He came into the room and sat down on the sofa. He looked very odd and too big for the sofa. I let out a giggle and slapped my hand over my mouth. He looked at me funny and smiled. I turned my back to him and clicked my fingers imagining what I wanted to wear. I was naked for a split second then I had the clothes that I had imagined on. I turned to see the man with his mouth open. “What?”
“That's top level magic you just did. How old did you say you were?”
“I didn't.”
“Your a little childish to be a Princess aren't you?”
“I say that its one of my qualities.” I said smiling at him. “But, yes. I am quite childish. And I'm 19.”
“What?! Your 19?”
“Yes. I'm 19 and I'm the youngest and the most powerful Vampire Princess ever so you people here better respect me cause I could kill every one of your asses.” I put so much power into my voice that he actually flinched away from me. “Sorry. I don't get this at school. I get treated like a waste of space.” I don't know why but I started crying. I wiped angrily at my face and accidentally scratched my face and made it bleed. Before I could wipe my fingers across it, he was in front of me touching my chin and lifting my head so his eyes meant mine.
“My name is Cassius. It means Protective Cover. I've been tasked to protect you while you are staying here. That means protecting you from everything and everyone including yourself. Come here.” He pulled my cheek towards him and he gently licked the cut on my cheek so it would heal.
“Thank you Cassius. I think we need to get to class so I teach.” I said gently. He nodded stiffly and opened the door for me. I walked out of it and followed Cassius to the class room I had been assigned.
When I got there all the students were relaxing against the walls and talking to there friends steadily and they barely gave me a look. However, when Cassius rounded the corner, they all shut up mid sentence and stood up and straightened their clothes out. I walked into the classroom and sat behind the desk and crossed my legs on the chair. The bell rang and everybody walked in and took their seats. They all stared at me relaxing behind the desk. Some people got their books out and put them on the table.
“Whose the youngest in here?” I said to the class. A girl put her hand up. “Age?”
“I turned 19 yesterday.” she said in a sweet voice. I nodded and smiled at her and she smiled to. I had that effect on people.
“Were going to do something different today rather than a boring lesson. We are going to do practical.” Everybody clapped apart from Cassius who had just walked in. He came over to me and tapped me on the shoulder.
“You haven't had blood this morning. You won't last three hours without
