|Cicada Woods|
Even with the day light, cicada woods didn't look promising. Everything about it was an abomination to humanity. The wind flitters the ground, they escalate rapidly , a faint sound hits the arena, and it could only mean someone was around. The once daylight that enveloped the forest turns pitch black, the whole region carves with darkness except a faint view of the arena Ryan had massacred the two vampires.
The sandhill of the female vampire was untouched by the wind. Then, footsteps approaches the sandhill. Someone stands before the sand hill, only boots were walking around the hill, the identity of the person was of reading.
A hand stretches out to the hill top, greasing it with his finger. A white light escapes it tube and overwhelms the sand hill. Whosoever it was , the person could see the corpse and soul structure of the female vamp being scattered into tiny atoms that were transmutated into a sandhill.
Reverse!
The sandhill changed it structure; reattaining the molecular structure of the female vampire. She falls on her knees before her savior, worshipping his feat but he turns over to where Fhill was completely massacred. His esoteric vision came in place and he saw no structure talk less of any single essence of Fhill. 'This is more than just any soul annihilation technique that the apex predator showcased last night, the entire setting of Fhill were beyond reconstruction!'
He faced the female vamp who was still kneeling before her. The individual happened to be of the same species as the attire he was wearing resembles those of Fhill with an symbol engraved on both cheat areas , even the lady had something similar on.
"I have my reasons for bringing you back...", the individual face appeared more of a void!. His face was nothing but an aspect of it. His eyes were dead redden!. "Find me that male child or I will kill you myself... Is that clear , Agathe? I don't want failures this time around. Time is running fast, it won't wait for us Agathe! bring the boy to me... his mother is of no use to me. Kill her if it's a must."
"Master... the apex predator?"
"Don't worry about him... he won't be of any disturbance, just get... that... boy! and bring him... to me."
"Yes master."

"...Is this suppose to be a date?", Hartley inquired knowing this isn't any normal outing. She was trying to be faithful to her husband and her child but what could she have done? having such of a powerful man at her service was a dream come true. She liked it but she had the hesitance to stay.
Ryan understood her, he could sense what was disturbing her but he pushes it aside. "I could make it a date if you want.", he teases which makes her blush but her guilty conscience didn't make her enjoy it. "Look... I understand,but I have my reason for bringing you out here."
"Alright, what the reason for bringing me here?"
"You said you read more about us... The Apex Predators. "
"Yeah, I have a high collection of the originals collection in my old house before I moved in with Alexander after our marriage."
"Is the warehouse still in good shape? most especially the book?"
'...Was really hoping this was a date or something... with Alexander gone my nights will be restless. God!'
"Hellooo!!! C'mon.", Ryan grabs her attention.
"Yea... yeah... yeah..", She repeated abruptly. "It still in good shape... the books are well secured. I kept them that way so Richard could also develop interest in them."
"Nice , nice.", Ryan commented with a smile. "I wanted you to take me there so I could read them because I want to get some information, but relax it nothing. It just something that could help me and my family out."
"Am guessing you can't share your family problems with me."
"...I don't want to get you involved."
She rests her arms on the table and brings her head forward. "Am involved already... so tell me what going on."
"You won't understand even if I tell you."
"... What won't I understand? I mean there's nothing that is to hard to understand once you get the main points."
"Fine, what happened to the apex predators In the end of the book? and who is the author? I need answer to both because I know am not real!."
Hartley eyes widens. "The end? like you want to know what... hold on a sec! you aren't---"
Ryan places a finger on her lips, gesturing her to be calm. He removed his finger.
She heaves a sigh , taking in a deep breath. "I don't recall if the book had an end Ryan... all I know is..."
"What?"
"No, you must be joking. How won't you be...", tuning down her voice. "...real? it so hard to believe..."
"Don't change the topic... tell me what happened at the end of the book."
"A lot happened Ryan, I don't want to give you false hopes because of the petty information you are gonna receive from me."
Ryan cools his mind , resting back on his chair. "...Cut to the chase. What happened at the end of the book?"
"You all disappeared... "

|Daren Junior High|
You could tell it was an expensive school from the fancy structure of it creation. Luxurious vehicles rounded it frontier. Flags held up representing the beauty of the country. The wall of the school sank deep in the sky's color.
Children were playing around. Except, Richard. The lad sat alone in class drawing on a piece of paper. The class didn't have any other occupant except him. It was break, he had no interest in playing outside.
As he drew , the doors to the classroom opens. Richard heard it and in his perspective; it wouldn't be more than the teacher or any of the student. Footsteps approaches him yet he isn't worried, bit by bit the footsteps drew closer and closer towards him and stopped.
Richard stops drawing, feeling uneasy... he takes a look at who stood behind him. His eyes repels with a shock followed by an immediate scream! the door to the classroom swung open with teachers bolting in after hearing the scream made by the occupant[Richard] but to their dismay the sound was gone and so was... Richard.
