Critter Volume 1: Chapter 12 [The Finale Pt.2]
Jordan and Lena are cuddling on the couch watching One Tree Hill “Why do you make me watch this crap hun!” he said “Oh don’t even lie you love it!” she said and they went in for a kiss but was interrupted by a knock on the door. Jordan went to answer and saw Warren standing on the doorstep. “Holy shit” he said as Lena stood behind him “Jordan I’m gunna ask you to please leave, I’ll call you tomorrow, just please go” Jordan grabbed his jacket and left. When the door shut he knew he had two choices, leave and be a good boyfriend or stay and ease drop. So he went to the side window to look in. Lena was screaming at him and crying, but she went in for a hug. Warren sat her down and began talking, Lena was crying and out of the blue she went in for a kiss. They began making out and taking off each other’s clothes. He threw her on the couch and that’s when Jordan looked away. Pissed off, he ran down the dark dirt road alone. He got to the old cemetery when he heard a noise. “Hello?” no one answered he kept walking, he wiped a tear off his face, but it was sent flying as he was pressed against a tree by a man in a black cloak. Fangs came out of his teeth like he was shooting out a switchblade. The man dug them into Jordan’s neck leaving him unconscious. The vampire through Jordan on his back and ran away carrying a dangling out cold Jordan.
The next morning Lauren was thinking about Warrens proposition, she remembered saying to him that she would think about it if he promised to go see Lena, so she was, thinking about it that is. She knew she was special, but what about Chris, he hates supernaturalism so what would he think of her if he knew.Lauren told Warren that she would fight in the war against the Sirens, how would she hide this from Chris? It was all becoming too hard for her to hide who she really is. Lauren didn’t want to show the truth, she was falling in love with him. As she picked her dry clothes off the cloth line and placed them into a basket she heard chirping, Lauren turned and saw a Robin perched upon the end of the line, she recognized the bird. It was Natasha. She flew up in the air and turned into a very naked Natasha and startled Lauren. She dropped her laundry “what do you want Natasha!?” she asked “whoa! Is that how you treat someone who saved your life? I’m here to warn you, about the dreams your having!” Lauren wondered how she knew,"Your probably wondering how I know? Well shifters have a bunch of amazing qualities, knowing when someone is rejecting their own abilities is one of them. We can tell if someone is special, like me, and when you reject your gift...it get's angry. You need to-" but was interrupted by a splatter of blood all over her face. Chris stood behind Natasha with a cross bow, Natasha fell to the ground with an arrow through her neck. She died instantly “HOLY FUCK! CHRIS WHAT DID YOU DO!”.
Jordan wakes up with dried blood all over his neck, he has a chain wrapped around his ankle. He sat up “hey! Hey are you okay?” a woman from the opposite side whispered. Jordan didn’t feel well enough to reply, first he had to figure out where he was. He saw multiple people chained to the wall of some cave looking room. Then he herd footsteps, it was the vampire. He came into the room and the people started screaming, he unchained a man beside him and dragged him to the next room, all you heard was screaming, and then no screaming. It was not the fist time Jordan as chained to a basement after being taken. He felt hopeless, weak and powerless. He was pissed about Lena cheating, and felt like he had nothing to live for. The woman spoke again “what’s your name?” she asked “shut the fuck up” replied Jordan. He looked down at his chain, it wasn’t locked properly. He tore it off and stood up “holy shit your free, go get help!” Jordan walked right past the lady and stormed into the next room where the vampire was standing over the bloody dead man “I know what you are!” the vampire turned quickly and through him against the wall holding his jaw “turn me, I want to be like you, PLEASE I HAVE NOTHING LEFT! I WANT POWER!” he cried. The vampire let him go and stepped back “follow me” he said as he went into the next room, he walked up to the lady and pointed “kill her” he handed Jordan a metal stake “if you think you can be me, kill her” Jordan looked at her “will you turn me?” he asked, the vampire nodded “yes”. Jordan lifted the stake with all his power and came down on the woman killing her instantly, Jordan was not a killer, but he wanted an escape. He needed to prove to people that he wasn’t just going to disappear into the shadows. From here on out, he would haunt the shadows.
Ashley is walking through the woods carrying a backpack on her shoulders; she was bringing Kindred some food from the market in town. When she approached the house, she could sense something was wrong. The door was open. Ashley ran inside and saw blood on the floor leading to the kitchen. She ran into the kitchen to see Kindred ripped to shreds all over the kitchen. Ashley screamed as she turned to run, slipping on the blood and falling on the floor. She heard howls coming from outside, and then the front door creaking. Ashley held her breath and walked into the from room, the wolf looked her in the eyes “so you finally finished it”.
The bar was busy as usual and Lauren was not able to keep up, with everything on her mind she knew she shouldn’t have came to work. She locked herself in a stall and cried. She knew her and Chris were wrong to hide the body. Lauren kept thinking, how can someone be the love of her life, but have so much hate for a certain group of people, but she agreed to keep the secret. She had to leave, as she stormed out of the stall she ran to Mitchell’s office “I’m sorry but I don’t feel good, I have to go, I’ll call you tomorrow!” Lauren flew past everyone when she was stopped by a middle-aged couple who looked lost “excuse me! Do you have a second” Lauren stopped “sure” she said “were looking for our daughter, wondering if you’ve seen her? She moved here about a month ago, her name is Natasha” They pulled out a picture of the girl her boyfriend murdered not 3 hours ago. Lauren felt Ill, she looked up at the couple but everyone turned their attention to the sound of smashing plates and glasses in the dining room. Julia dropped her tray and stood above it, she then turned around to see all eyes on her “It’s time” she whispered as she crawled up onto a table. Lena came out from the back as well as Mitchell and newly hired Dayna. Lauren and the devastated parents stared as Julia began to sing “aaaaaaah-ahhhhh-AHHHH” the music was like the best drug you’ve ever tried, you couldn’t turn away. Lauren knew this was one of the Siren's Warren was talking about, he said they would come, he said they were dangerous but she didn't care. Julia's eyes turned white, and scales began plunging out of her skin, as the sound of her soothing voice filled the room, all fell silent to her song.
