The Ghost Hunters and The Familiar Strangers

Evan bit Laura's neck as Laura gasped for air and in split seconds, she fainted. Evan tried his best to hold back his tears but despite how hard he tried, the tears still found their way out of the year gland.

Chloe came closer to him touching his shoulder. "You did the right thing". She said as Evan looked at her when she nodded her head to affirm what she said, he looked at his team and they nodded their heads too.

Evan held Laura's wrist, took a stone with a sharp edge, and cut his palm with it. As soon as the blood started dripping, he held his palm as the blood dropped on Laura's wrist, causing the bite mark to heal. He touched the necklace that saved their lives. It's time to get it off her. He used his blood and placed it on the orb and the necklace came off her neck.

"We should get her home. Her parents might become worried". Reed said.

Evan carried Laura's bridal style. "I'll meet you guys there". He said as he zoomed off in a flash.

At Laura's home, Ashley has been awake for some minutes. Martina was glad to see her husband again. Jack and Emerald were waiting for their teams to return. They stood outside the house standing guard. Within a few minutes, Evan appeared in front of them with Laura in his arms.

"What happened?". Emerald as Evan walked inside the house, placing Laura on the sofa.

As Evan was about to explain, The rest of the team breezed in.

"What happened to my daughter?". Martina asked as she tried to touch her but Evan avoided her from doing that.

"Evan. What happened?". Jones asked.

Evan looked at everyone trying so hard to find a way to tell them without them freaking out but how was he going to do that?

"Evan talk to me". Jones said his voice going higher.

"I....". He cleared his throat. ".... I claimed her". He said as Jones opened his mouth in shock.

Martina not understanding what he meant, walked up to Evan. "What do you mean by you claimed her?". She asked him.

"He had no other choice. It was the only way he could save her". Reed told Martina.

"I still do not understand". Martina said as Jones came to her side. "Honey, do you understand what they are talking about?". She asked her husband who was trying to calm her down.

"By claim he meant....". Jones paused. He gave a closer look at his wife trying to see if he could tell how his wife would take it.

"Talk to me Jones. Is Laura dead?". Martina asked.

Jones shook his head, holding his wife's hands tenacity as he released the bomb. "She was bitten". He said as Martina's legs failed her making her fall on the chair.

"I had no other choice. She was already bitten by one nefarious vampire on her wrist. One bite from any vampire creates a huge change both in the life of another vampire and a human. I had to claim her that way even if she has to feed, she wouldn't be looking for blood from the dead but from me". Evan said. "I'm so sorry. I should have asked for your consent but it would be too late for her". Evan added.

Martina looked at her daughter as she sobbed.

"Are you saying my sister is now a vamp?". Ashley asked. Evan nodded to her question.

"It takes a while before she changes but I think for now we should keep it a secret from her". Evan suggested. "Right now, she hates us... if she finds out she was bitten... I don't know what she might do".

"But someday she will find out... then what?". Ashley asked.

"Till then. Till then do not say anything to her Ashley". Evan said as Ashley nodded. "I want you to keep this safe. Can you do that?". He said handling the moonlight necklace.

"This is that necklace! how did you get it off?". She asked.

"Just do as I say". Ashley nodded collecting the necklace from his hand.

Evan went closer to Martina with one knee on the floor. "I promise to take good care of her". He assured.

Martina sobbed as her husband came to hug her. "Thank you so much". Jones started. "All of you". He said looking at everyone.

They all nodded as they took their leave. They decided to have a meeting to decide if they will be together or if they should go their separate ways.

Silver one of Derek's vampires - the only vampire on Derek's team standing, went to the house and he was sad to see everywhere empty.

...... Flashback of the plan.....

"This is what we'll do". Derek said as he planned his attack. "First Silver, You will be nowhere around the house. You will be there to give feedback to the queen". Silver nodded as he left. "Miranda, Catherine, and Amanda, you are to guide the outside". The three girls nodded as they went to their spot. "Mark, Theo, Austin, and James. Your mission is to go to the forest and kill whatever or whoever you see". The four of them nodded each going to the north, east, west, and south. "While Damian, Lora, Samantha, Charlotte, Angela, and I will remain here to handle the case". He said as everyone nodded.

..... Reality......

Silver sobbed. He brought out his phone and called the queen. After much ringing, the phone was picked up.

"Silver is that you?". The queen asked. "What's happening?".

"Everyone is gone and bygone, I mean dead. No one is left". He explained. "The whole house is empty. I can't even see a strand of hair here".

"Okay calm down. I guess our plan failed but that doesn't mean we can't try again". The queen said. "Now, I want you to go somewhere far away and bite as many people as you can. You'd never know when we need them. I'll send you some money. Make sure no one sees you". She said.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

"Ok Queen". Silver said as he hung up. He packed some things he might need for the journey. "I'll make sure to avenge every one of them. I won't rest until I kill them all". He took one more glance at the house and zoomed as he. disappeared at a fast speed.
