The Bloodsucker Mate

Five

Episode five

Andre took a deep breath and told himself that he will forget it like it had never happened to him.

He wore his jacket ready to enjoy his vacation.

He met Fred and Mira holding a hoe and a digger.

"What are these for?" He asked.

"I will explain." The principal cut in.

"Not again." Andre said in his mind.

The face of the principal was the last thing he wanted to see.

"Okay explain sir." Andre replied.

"You are going to plant a tree, just like every other student." The principal announced.

"I thought this vacation was meant for us to relax our brains so we can be ready to continue classes, then why are you making it hard for us, first it was making the freaking tents and now planting? Do we look like Farmers?" Andre asked.

"Ask him, this isn't fair at all, you should have informed us that we are here to suffer, we won't have accepted to come to this place." Mira answered.

"If you are done talking, you can go start coz you are not going to eat anything till I'm satisfied with your plants." The principal said ready for their stubbornness.

"What the....you are now planning to starve us? Were you planning to kill us?" Fred suddenly said.

"Oh, I thought you turned dumb." Andre said eyeing Fred.

"You kids are the only students that complained over everything; my only joy was that you are a bit intelligent." The principal replied.

"Yeah, we know our rights and we can't watch you treating us badly." Mira scoffed.

"Good luck kids, remember, no foods till you are done with planting." The principal smirked at them and left.

"Gosh, I so much hate him." Mira screamed.

"Not as much as I do, I'm already used to having breakfast early, what should we do now?" Fred asked.

"No worries guys, I actually sneaked in some junks food from my car, we can plant and eat at the same time, he thought he knew it all." Andre answered.

"Yoooo hurray." Mira screamed excitedly.

They headed to where they will plant and they started watering the soil cursing every minute.

Andre helped Mira and started digging the ground when the hoe hit his hand and he was sure he saw it bleeding.

They all rushed to him.

"Are you Okay? Should I call the principal?" Mira asked and he stared at the wound, it started disappearing slowly.

He blinked his eyes twice and indeed it's healing.

"I will be back please." Andre said immediately.

"But...." Mira tried to say but he run off to the tent.

He watched in horror as his hands heal immediately and that too completely not leaving an atom of wound in his hands.

Once again he started sweating.

"What's happening to me? What's wrong with me?" He asked himself already crying.

He saw a new razor blade and he cut his hand intentionally and it heals up faster than before, his eyes almost popped out of his skull.

Just then Mira enter the room.

"Andre let's get your wounds treated before it get infected, I told the principal and he said we can stop planting and rest, that's so interesting, because of you we won't have to plant that disgusting thing anymore." Mira said excitedly.

Andre hide his hands behind his back, his heart beating fast like it will explode any minute.

"If she finds out the wounds has been healed, she will question me and my secret will be exposed, I'm sure it because of the wolf that my wound healed up immediately." Andre said.

"What are you thinking, show me your hand." Mira said and dragged his hand and couldn't find the wound, she stared at him shocked.

"The wound?" She asked.

"Uhm, it was... and...” He stammered.

"Talk to me, do you have supernatural healing Powers?" She asked laughing.

"Oh no, you don't have anything, I remember the time you cut your hands and it takes weeks before it healed up completely, was this a prank?" Mira asked coming closer to him.

He got an idea.

"Yes, it was a prank on the principal, he wanted to force us to plant and I showed him who the boss is." Andre lied laughing too.

"Wow, I knew it, now we don't have to plant anymore, you did it, and guess what? He also said he will give you extra breakfast and we are going to share it okay." Mira said and he nodded.

She stopped laughing.

"But wait, I saw your hands bleeding." Mira said.

"It was...it was a fresh red tomato."

Andre lied again.

"You are such a genius; I will go call Fred so we can celebrate our victory over the big stomach principal." Mira announced and left excitedly.

He exhaled deeply as soon as she left.

"Everything happening is strange to me, I wish I can ask someone or share my fears out but I can't say anything not even to Mira, I had escaped this one, I hope that's all." He soliloquies.

Fred joined them soon and they played all day and ate all the junks Andre brought from his house.

In the night

The moon shines so bright making the place bright.

Andre was trying hard to sleep when he started feeling some weird feelings, he was feeling some pains from the place he got beaten yesterday, the mark appeared again like a magic and he could feel like someone is dragging him out.

Before he knew it, he was running in the highest speed, he was sure he was faster than a car he can't just control it.

He stopped when he reached the dangerous way.

The full moon was staring at him and he started feeling so much pains, he screamed as he feels his bones cracking, he was so afraid and screamed more when he saw his fingers and nails getting larger, his nails became sharp, and his eyes turned red, his skin started turning hairy.
