Chapter 34 - Prey(2)

All the student involved in the fire accident last month has healed. They even visit the cafeteria to say "hi" to the class A student that has injured them. The class A student is helping the aunties in the cafeteria. They have become the favourite of the aunties but from their face, you could see how they are suffering from doing all those chores. How could a golden child like them ever done chores in their life?

"Mikayla tonight stay with me. I will be your guide," said Zuri.

"Ginger?" said Mikayla as he turns his head towards Ginger.

"I'll be with the vampires. My urges to drink blood on the full moon is same as the vampires," said Ginger.

"Oh! Then, you will be hunting both of us?" said Mikayla.

"Of course," said Ginger while showing her fang.

"Attention! All vampires, assemble at the Moon Hall. Others assemble at the Star Hall" said the teacher on a speaker.

Mikayla and Zuri walk to the Star Hall with the others.

In the Moon Hall, a teacher standing on the stage "The same rules, as usual, you can move in teams but you can't share blood from a single student or servant. One student or servant per vampire. Remember that this is a hunting session, not a killing session. Servant can be excused but don't kill your schoolmates. Alright, happy hunting everyone."

In the Star Hall, Teacher Nell standing on the stage "During the hunting, you can run, hide and battles with the vampire students. Don't help a servant if they ask for help. Servants are the main dish for the vampire it is rude to interrupt their meal. For ghouls, zombies and werewolf please restrain yourself from eating the servant. Alright, let's the hunt begins."

The vampire is already roaming half an hour earlier waiting for their prey to come. Mikayla follows Zuri's lead while walking in the school corridor.

"It is not that bad, I thought we will be ambushes as soon we enter the corridor," said Mikayla.

"It is still early, wait until midnight, that is when the fun begins," said Zuri with a grin on his face. That grin looks eerie in this dark corridor.

Midnight, the tension starts to rise, Mikayla can see a lot of red aura intensifies it looks like a burning fire. Mikayla's chest tightens, the magic power of the vampires is the strongest on the full moon and it is no joke. Zuri unable to see the aura but he able to feels the changes of magic power. Zuri's eyes from dark blue turn into black, slowly there is no colour except for black in Zuri's eyes. His presence slowly blended into the darkness. Black tails appear behind Zuri's back. Three black tail circling Zuri ready for any confrontation.

Seeing those changes, Mikayla spread his wings and from light yellow, it turns into black as dark as the night. His amber eyes turn darker into dark gold. He flaps his wings and build a winds barrier around him. He scans the surroundings and sees a faint red aura. That vampire is good, he able to lower his presence but still can't escape from his eyes.

Mikayla gives some signals to Zuri. Zuri licks his lips and dashes towards the hidden vampire. The vampire is startled but regains his composure and start battling with Zuri.

"Loser will give their blood," said the vampire.

"Loser will give me a bite of their flesh," said Zuri.

"Alright!" They move further away from the class to open spaces and leaves Mikayla alone in the class. Zuri totally forgot about Mikayla. Seeing the battle it is novel to Mikayla and starts to observe others.

In the dark, there are three pairs of eyes eyeing for Mikayla. They move slowly approaching Mikayla. Mikayla senses a pressure behind him and turns around. He immediately flaps his wings and creates a strong wind. All the desk and chairs fly towards the attackers. Scream can be heard.

"Mikayla it's me!" said Ginger. Mikayla stops his attack and flies down.

"Ginger! I thought a vampire is attacking me. Zuri is battling with one of the vampires." said Mikayla.

"I know. I saw him just now. He boasts to take care of you but when seeing prey he forgot everything." said Ginger while smoothing her hair.

"Hahahaha, let him be. This is the first time I see him so excited," said Mikayla.

"Want to come with us to hunt?" said Ginger.

"Going with you? I'm the prey here!" said Mikayla.

"You can be our exclusive prey but don't worry we will not drink your blood," said Jill.

"Having an exclusive prey and able to protect them is one way of us vampire compete with each other and protects our friends but servant can't be included in this," said Dew.

Mikayla agrees to come with them and fly with them. He can observe the battles of the vampires and the other students. His blood is boiling with excitement. He also wants to fight.

He gets what he wants when there is a group of vampires with exclusive preys come attacking his group. One of the vampires attacks Mikayla using his little minions, the bats. Bats fly towards Mikayla and circling him.

Mikayla screams and ruins his opponent ears and his little minion. The vampire starts to lose balance and falls down but in a few seconds, he is floating steadily, his little minions need some time to recover. The regeneration of the vampire increase in this full moon. Another attack comes from his rear and Mikayla uses his wings to block it. Mikayla turns around and flies forward like a shuttle and slams on the vampire. The vampire barrier crash like glass and rains of punches on his stomach and face pouring to him by Mikayla. The vampire cough blood and retreats. Mikayla did not chase the vampire because there is another one that is healing under him.

The vampire that is healing scrutinizes Mikayla, thinking that Mikayla is a worthy prey. Strong! Fast! Ruthless! "If you lose, I want your blood until I'm satisfied."

"Sure!" said Mikayla.

"No other demands?" said the vampire.

"No, I didn't drink blood or eating flesh," said Mikayla while shaking his head.

"Then, if you win I will protect you next month during the hunt," said the vampire.

"Okay!" said Mikayla.

Both of them are staring at each other on the air. The vampire's nails start to grow longer and Mikayla is creating an armour all over his body using wind. He is in a ready position to receives an attack. The vampire flies towards Mikayla using his claws as a weapon. Mikayla evades to the right and catch the vampire's hands and detain his other hand from the back and make a knife from wind and put it on the vampire's throat and slash his throat. The fight ended in a few seconds and the vampire stunned unable to comprehend what has happened.

The vampire falls to the ground and Mikalya goes to help Ginger fighting her opponent. They are four versus seven. One retreat and one falls to the ground, five to go. Seeing their friends defeated by Mikayla the others start to hesitate because Mikayla magic pressure is strong and intimidating them.

"Continue or retreat?" asked Mikayla. He is pressuring his opponent. Seeing his group condition, they are not in good condition. He is unable to fight the five of them by himself.

"Retreat!" said the vampire on the ground. His slashed throat start to heal. "See you next month." The other of his group members follow him into the school and disappear into the dark.

Mikayla and his friends fly down and they are panting except for Mikayla.

"Mikayla since when your endurance is this good?" said Ginger.

"Yeah! you always the last in the class," said Dew. He is laying on the grass.

Mikayla just grins they would never know what training that his teacher has given to him all this month. It is hellish and he has to sacrifice his precious sleep.

A vampire has been stalking Mikayla since the beginning of the hunt and observes Mikayla slowly. He did not attack Mikayla because based on his information Mikayla has strong magic spell. He wants to wait for an opportunity when Mikayla unable to react and becomes his prey.

He has promised his young master to squeeze Mikayla's blood. He drinks a potion and his face turns into Zuri's face.

"Mikayla, nice fight!" said the young vampire.

"Hey, Zuri! where have you been? You are supposed to guide Mikayla. This is his first hunting," said Ginger.

Mikayla feels something weird about this Zuri. Why is his aura is red? Zuri's aura is black after transform but his demeanour and smell are the same as Zuri. Mikayla walks towards Zuri and wants to ask him about this but when he is close...

"You imposter! How dare you turn into me!" said Zuri as he jumps from a nearby tree.

The others are shocked seeing two Zuri in front of them. The atmosphere is awkward. Who is the real Zuri? Both Zuri is staring at each other.

"This is the real Zuri," said Mikayla pointing to the right. Zuri turns his head towards Mikayla and hugs his shoulder.

"You are my best friends able to see that I'm the real one," said Zuri.

"How you able to differentiate us? My camouflage is perfect," said the young vampire.

"Secret!" said Mikayla.

The young vampire smile and from the darkness appears a few other vampires. They are trapped.
