“What’s your name?” Asked Summer ignoring the boy’s fear, to a point. Her shadow was close, his breath quiet in the darkness, but she heard him, and the others. Something was going down, someone is going to die. Billy did not answer, he just looked into the girl’s eyes, they were darker now. Roth waits patiently as the Vampire helps the boy stand, his feet unsteady under his trembling body. “Someone is in.” the boy stopped speaking, the pretty girl placed a finger to his lips. He understood, the girl, or whatever she was is baiting the shadows, pulling the man deeper into the old warehouse. Together they walk in silence, Summer rubbing the boy’s arm as they make their way through the darkness. A crumbling door opens up into a large room and an old ornate staircase. It is weathered with age, but the elegance of its history still boast of its once proud heritage. The Vampire hops up on the banister and pulls the boy in, her skirt covering all the right places, it still make Billy uncomfortable. He begins to voice his concerns. “Shut up and put your arms around me.” Scolded the Vampire, he awkwardly extends his arms.
