Chapter 28 - Hiding The Body

"So…what are we supposed to do now" asked Lydia in fear.

"First let's take a step from the body, I can't bear with it anymore" reply Abel before walking out of the locker room.

That was when it comes to Lydia that Abel was a vampire and a new turn at that so standing close to the body is not favorable for him.

"I think its best that we let Mr. McCray take care of it" suggested Abel.

"do you think he will agree to lend us a hand" asked Lydia?

"Of course, he will so let's go to his office" replied Abel before taking a step forward.

"I don't think there is any need for us to go look for him in his office" said Lydia before taking out her phone dial  Mr. McCray.

The moment the phone connected, Lydia begin to explain things to him before the call was hung up.

"What did he say" asked Abel.

"he is on his way" reply Lydia before going before to check on the body.

Seeing the way she's acting, Abel couldn't help but think that Lydia has never seen something like dead bodies ever since she became a banshee.

"will you calm down for once" said Abel feeling annoyed by the way she was acting.

"how do you expect me to calm down when there is a body laying there" reply Lydia while breathing heavily.

"now you are acting like a baby" said Abel with a sigh.

"How can you be acting like nothing even happened" asked Lydia as she was surprised to see Abel remaining calm.

"I have had my fill of seeing bodies lying dead so how do you expect me to panic".

"don't worry after spending some months here in Warlington, you will get used use to it as well" replied Abel with a chuckle.

Just as they were talking, the sound of footsteps came from behind and they had to turn around to take a look at who it was only for them to see Mr. McCray coming their way with a deep frown on his face.

"At what time did you find the body" asked Mr. McCray after closing the gap between them.

"it hasn't been that long that we came here after school time was over" replied Abel.

"and what were you doing here" asked Mr. McCray while giving Abel a look.

"well Lydia had a vision about it and ran here so I decided to follow her when seeing her acting strange but when we got here, there was no one and we decided to go home only for me to pick up a scent in the air which lead us back to this place" reply Abel as he begins to fill Mr. McCray on what happened.

Mr. McCray couldn't help but let out a sigh before walking past them to take a look at the body before returning back.

"Whoever this is responsible for his death must have left the school premises and we need to get rid of the body before the janitor gets here" said Mr. McCray.

"So where are we supposed to hide the body" asked Abel.

Looking at his wristwatch to check the time, Mr. McCray looks ahead before speaking up.

"He should still be at his post, so we have some time to take the body out of the school by going through the back door. Lydia I want you to clean this place up while Abel and I take the body away".

Not giving her the time to speak up, Mr. McCray went ahead and took his coat off before tying it around the neck to stop the bleeding before raising the legs while Abel took the hands and they hurried out of the locker room while heading towards the back door.

Seeing that they have left with the body, Lydia also went to work as she begin to clean the place, and within seven minutes she was already down cleaning the place and that was when the janitor came into the locker room where he saw the young lady standing still.

"class is over young lady, so what are you doing here" asked the janitor.

"I'm sorry sir but you see I lost my earring and decided to look for it before heading home" replied Lydia with a smile.

"Good to know that you have found it, now leave" said the janitor

Lydia decided to take her leave before the janitor would chase her out of the locker room. After getting out, she decided to wait for both Mr. McCray and Abel at the school entrance which took them a long time before they were able to return.

They didn't say a word before leaving the school premises and it was only after they have gone to Mr. McCray's tower that the silence was finally broken by him.

"What happened today stays with us" said Mr. McCray with a serious look on his face.

"This is the first time since I've been in the school that someone was actually killed" commented Abel.

"Whoever that is behind the death if that student truly got nerves, good things no one has find out about the body before we did" reply Mr. McCray.

"What if his parents came looking for him" asked Lydia.

"it would be the school problem to deal with" replied Mr. McCray.

"don't you think it is strange for the head to go missing" asked Abel?

"That is also what I am thinking about, why would the body be left behind without caring if it would be found out but the head would just go missing"   reply Mr. McCray.

"do you think it is by any means connected to any creature" asked Abel since he has been coming in contact with other being ever since he was turned?

"let's just hope that it is not" reply Mr. McCray with a serious look on his face.

"Wait a minute, are you saying that you two are not the only ones in this town" asked Lydia only to see their two nodding in reply.
