CHAPTER TWELVE:
Danny wakes up around noon; he seems dizzy the moment his eyes open. I close the blinds swiftly. “Are आप okay?” I ask stupidly, already knowing the answer. Danny is in unimaginable pain on the inside. The infusion I gave him was quick, thus the change was slightly different than most. “Horrible.” He mutters, grabbing his head. I lean over to look at him. The change has affected him, I note, and there may be different after effects. After all, his transformation into a vampire was as I mentioned before, highly unusual. “Ashley.” He says, finally placing a name to my voice, I imagine. “Danny, आप need to rest.” I tell him. “Where’s that guy?” Danny asks weakly. “The one who sliced open my stomach?” I reach over and stroke his hair. “He’ll get what’s coming to him.” Danny takes a deep breath. “What about Harold? He कहा he’d go after any other friend आप made here.” I sigh. “I’ve broken off contact with him.” I tell him. Danny sighs. “I’m not going to be able to go घर am I?” he asks me. I am shocked at this. “Why do आप say that?” I ask. “Because he attacked my parents before he grabbed me.” My eyes widen, and once और I find myself disgusted with Pike’s activities. “Like I said, I’ll make him pay, and I’ll enjoy it too.” Danny nods, and I see him does off again. I realize it’s time I got Danny away from town. I decide to drive him back to my place in Santa Barbara. As I begin to pack my phone rings. I pick it up, somewhat reluctantly. “Hello?” “Hey Ash.” Comes a voice I loathed from the other line. “What do आप want Pike?” I ask. “You know. I told आप the other night. I need the blood of a telepath.” He says. “Now I know there’s one in town, I just don’t know who. But I’m betting आप do. आप always had a special connection with those individuals that I lack.” I am silent for a moment, then “Screw आप Pike.” I shout into the line. I sense him grinning on the other end. “I was hoping you’d say that. “I have something आप want. And I know you’d hate to miss it. Meet me at the docks at nine o’clock tonight. If आप leave town, the individual I have with me will die. And I’ll tell आप this much Ash, it’s someone आप know. So I’d recommend not leaving town. See आप tonight, and bring your friend with you.” I hear him hang up, and I slam the phone down. It’s got to be Harold. I think, and I realize if it is, I’m screwed, then again, who else could it be? Danny, who is now awake due to the shouting, asks me what’s wrong. “It was him. The man who attacked you. His name is Pike. That was him on the phone.” Danny is shocked. “You know him? Why?” I sigh. “It’s a long story, but trust me Danny, I want him dead. Possibly और so than आप do.” Danny looks at me, and nods after a moment. “What’d he want?” he asks. “He’s got someone. It’s Harold, I’ll bet आप anything. He wants to meet us both tonight at the docks. He कहा he’ll kill his hostage if we leave town.” So who is he? How do आप know him?” Danny asks. The afternoon passes as I explain my history with पाइक to Danny, who is initially skeptical of vampirism, until I remind him that I cured his cut open stomach with my venom without even leaving a scar. As dusk sets in, Danny seems to have accepted everything. “So do I have to kill people now?” I shake my head. “No. आप can feed without killing. If we survive Pike’s plans for tonight, I will दिखाना you.” As eight-thirty reels in, I motion to Danny that it is time to leave. At eight-fifty six, I park my car at the docks. Pike, I note is there when I get to the edge with Danny. “You’re early Ashley.” He says smiling. “Where is he?” I shout. पाइक smiles, so you’ve figured out who “he” is have you?” He smiles and pulls something out from behind some crates. I am shocked to see it is not Harold, but Vincent. The other new kid. Vincent is bound and gagged, and looks at Danny and I in horror as पाइक playfully holds a silver dagger to his throat. “Alright Ashley. I know you’ve befriended this young man. And if आप don’t bring me my telepath, he’ll die. His parents already did.” पाइक says smiling. Danny makes his presence known at this point. “Let him go.” पाइक smiles. “Ah. Daniel! How’re आप doing? Better than your folks I’d imagine. They were such screamers when I ripped their throats out.” Danny lunges at Pike, who stabs Vincent in the shoulder. Vincent screams in pain, despite the tape over his mouth, and Danny stops. पाइक smiles. “I want my telepath Ash. And if आप don’t bring him to the school where आप met these two tomorrow night, Vincent here dies. And we both know आप don’t want me to do that.” Danny looks at Pike. “Why do आप do this?” he shouts. पाइक shrugs. “I like killing. It fills the place my soul would occupy.” पाइक laughs, “If I had a soul.” पाइक smiles. “Twenty four hours Ash.” He says smiling. With that he takes Vincent, who is still screaming, and throws him into a car. पाइक hops in, and drives of into the night.
Danny looks at me. “What’re we gonna do? He’s going to kill Vincent if we don’t bring him a telepath. Why does he think we would know one any way?” I look at Danny. “Because we do.” I say sadly.

Bonnie's POV
I walked quickly away from the dead man. I headed in the direction of a old hotel. "It's around here somewhere" I quitley said. I walked for 4 miles until i reached the hotel. Carefully and quitley I pushed the door open. "Hello? Is anyone there?" I कहा asking the darkness. I heard a soft moan, then a sob. It grew louder and louder. It sounded like it was a little girl. I turned on my flashlight and stepped in. "Hello?" I asked once agian. In the corner I could faintly see a figure crouching over and sobbing continuesly. I walked up to what appered to be a girl. I rested my hand on her back. "It's gonna be okay" I ressured her. She let out a low scratchy growl. Then as fast as lighting I was on the ground starring at something Imbossible.
