Penny for Your Thoughts
-Melissa-
Shit! The hunt is on! What are they doing this time? I sense two of
them. One got the boy.
Not my concern. She made me care. I sighed and rolled my eyes. So
annoying. Why does she even care? I've got other things to worry
about. Like that other hunter.
They are after her. Reily had to know. I can't keep her in the
dark.
I found her in the parking lot. She was staring out into space. She
had her phone in her hand. I raced over to her. I frantically waved
in her face.
“Hey! Hey!” I shouted. “Hey! Hey! Hey!” She looked up with a
start.
“Gah!” Reily blinked. “Oh, it's you.” She wrinkled her nose.
“What are you here?” she asked. I grabbed her by the cheeks.
“You have to run,” I said.
“What?” she asked.
“We have to go. Like right now.”
“Huh? Why?”
“They are hunting you down.”
She stared at me with big eyes. “What?!”
“Oh yes.”
I could feel the second hunter on the loose. I grabbed Reily by the
hand.
“Come on, let's go!” I shouted. We took off running as fast as we
could.

-Hunter #1-
I got me a good catch. He is starting to turn. He hasn't fed yet
though. Such a shame. We might have to fix that. I looked on the
side of his neck. The bite mark is turning black. Good, good. We
just need to speed up the process. That will be so easy.
I pulled out my radio. I giggled as it crackled to life.
“Yeah?” she asked.
“I got him, Sis. How are things on your end?”
-Hunter #2-
I smirked with the radio to my ear.
“I found them.”
