FANGS CHAPTER 38: Ellie's POV I ran as fast as I could after finishing my talk with Derek. In the way I though it would be good to let the band know why I had missed the talent show and practices. I send a lot of texts to them, then went inside the rebel's base. Everybody gave me a hug, kiss and welcomed. I tried to be as friendly as possible before entering the reunion that was being held. I opened the door really hard, making the sound echoed through the entire floor. Some of the leaders gave me an angry look. Others jumped from their chairs in surprised. And then there was Michael, my ex, who dump me for a younger vampire. I walked to the center of the room, where everybody could see me and gave a sly hit to the table. - Chris is going to attack! - I said as serious as possible. - And how do you know that? - Michael asked with his annoying voice. - Because I have been fighting him with Derek and other people this past weeks - I said proudly. - Derek? Derek Wane?! - another one asked. When I nodded everybody made an awful sigh. - What? Don't tell me that you don't thrust him? - I said with a teasing voice. - Don't thrust him? - another one repeated. - It's the other way around - a woman said. - What? - I said between coughs. - Derek is consider the Hero of the rebel vampires - Michael said with a grin. - Come again?! - I said without comprehension. - Derek's a high class vampire, was in the secret organization "The Firsts". He then rebel and ran away to America. Here he fought the organization until the battle with Chris, after that he retired... - Michael said with honor and happiness. - So, I've been with a renown star and I never knew?! - I said still with disbelief. Something about the story seemed odd. I believe Derek would have said something to me.. This was a mess, and a big one, but I needed to act as if it was true because I had to get them to approve. - Then, will you help us defeat Chris once and for all? - I said with a touch of persuasion in my voice. - Of course! We would never refuse an offer like that! - said one of the older vampires. - Good! You just gave me your word! - I said with a wide smile. - Your hiding something, aren't ya? - Michael said with an evil smile. - Well, you know me too well Michael. As you all may know, Chris's army has grown big, so we intent to do the same! Our fleet will consist on Vampires, Werewolves, hunters and elves - I said the last part with a little of doubt. I saw how some of their expressions darkened, others just said What?! and then was the guy who was drinking blood. When I mentioned the others he spat all the blood towards the others from the shock. I would have laugh if the moment wasn't so important. Besides that, I needed to tell them about Shane and Seth, which I was hoping to not be as bad as now. - There's something else - I said between breaths. - Really!? - I heard Michael's voiced echoed. Along with his teasing voice. - We will rescue two of our friends who were capture by Chris. One is a werewolf called Seth, then there's my boyfriend - I added just to see Michael's face Retorcerce from anger and jealousy - His name is Shane, and he can read the book of thousand eyes.. - I said without mentioning his last name, didn't want them to find out he was a Parker. - Is he a vampire? - Michael's jealous voice asked. - Pardon me? - I asked since I wasn't paying attention to him. - Is your... Boyfriend a Vam-pi- er?! - he said screaming. I tried to hide my chuckles, but it was impossible to do, he WAS jealous! - Kind of - I said with a playful voice. - What does that mean? - another one asked. I sighted. - He's a half vampire - I spit with no emotions in my tone. - You know the rules, vampires can only- - I cut him straight. - Shane was bitten by Derek, and besides that! We're rebels, we don't listen to the High Vampire's rule book anymore - this I said with sonics anger that not even I knew where it had come from. Everyone stayed in silence for sometime, thinking, analyzing my word one by one. I'd say, it was pretty awesome the feeling i got of me demanding the leaders what was truly right. It made me feel important and smart, something Michael never showed me. - Your right, lets unite our forces for this special occasion - said Ghran, the head of the rebels. My heart jumped from surprised as I heard him. I didn't knew he was here.. Now I felt like an idiot! Stupid, stupid, stupid! - Well, if that's all, then leave, we have a reunion to finish - Michael said coldly. - Oh! Ok, don't mind me, I have to reunite with Derek anyway - I said trying to hide my anger. Walked towards the door, opened with carefulness, then threw it hard when I was out.
