The Other World

""No? What do you mean no?" Tamara asks you.

"Dude, we have to get back." Marcel says as he gets closer to you.

"I mean, what's going to happen if we just stay here?" you reply with a little more sarcasm in your voice than you intended.

"Yeah, he really had to have hit his head or something. Dude, why are you acting like witches aren't a thing."

"Witches?"

"Yeah, witches...ya know, those evil creatures that kidnap us vampires and torture us until we want to drive a wooden stake through our own hearts?" Sorina imitates stabbing herself in the chest and falls onto Marcel's back.

"Oh, well, I mean..." You aren't able to finish your sentence.

"Lets just go home-" Marcel's stops when he hears the sound of a tree branch breaking behind them. The deepness of the forest makes it seem as if it is already night, but there is a little bit of sunlight peeking through the tops of the trees.

Tamara grabs your arm and her facial expression changes. She is no longer smiling or cheerful as she was before. You can barely see it, but her eyes change to red as she holds your arm and gets into a fighting stance. She is looking around the trees and bushes around you. Marcel and Sorina are doing the same. Their eyes a bright and almost sinister red. Their fangs are hanging over their bottom lips now.

"We have to leave, Marcel. Sebastian is too weak," Sorina says.

"Sorina, why would you say that?" Tamara yells.

All of a sudden you feel something tickling your ear. You flinch and swat at your ear, but you don't feel anything. You turn around to look at the group and you see Marcel lunging at you.

You duck and cover your head. Then there is a scream from behind you. You are still crouched but you look up to see Marcel attacking a woman on a broom. She throws a glass bottle at your feet, but you jump back. The grass that you were just standing on wilted away and a hole started to form in the ground.

"Let's go, Sebastian," Tamara whispers to you. She starts running and you run along with her. You notice that you are getting progressively faster the farther you go. You look over to her and see that her fangs are still out and her eyes are still that bright red, but she has a worried expression on her face now. She keeps looking over her shoulder.

You look too and see two people running behind you at the same speed. They've caught up to you by your next blink.

"We have to get home."
