The Newborn Vampire by Evenly Evans

closer to the trailer.
     
    Tobias’ suspicions regarding Joseph were proving correct. Only he came and went from their community.
     
      Tobias ran at great speed circling the circus to see if he could track Joseph and see which direction he had gone.  A scent left behind led to a trail deep into the woodlands near the mountain side.
     
      Tobias followed this trail at great haste keen to find Joseph and hope to God his suspicions were wrong. Tobias leapt over trees and logs and zoomed through the woodland at an impressive rate.  As the scent strengthened he slowed down wanting to be careful that he was neither seen nor heard.
     
      Eventually he came across voices. Staying out of sight, he listened intently to Joseph’s voice.
     
      “I have convinced them to let me guard her Samuel. I am on the pretence of doing a perimeter run now. They have no idea I am working with you. Mathias and the rest of the community have gone to do the show. Only a handful of guards have been left behind. Follow me and I will lead you back and once there we can take out the couple of guards. All that will have to be done then is Tobias who is inside the trailer with her. That silly old woman is there too, but a human is no kind of threat to us. We attack Tobias and take Catherine and the unborn with us.” 
     
      “Excellent, excellent,” said Samuel “You really have done well. Thank you for your assistance. Now let’s go and get my daughter and get back to our community. Once we are fully established we can finally show Mathias and this poor group of vampires who we really are and what we are capable of.”.
     
      Upon hearing this, rage over come Tobias and he threw himself in the path of
     
     
     
    Samuel. He grabbed him by the arms and flung him from tree to tree breaking each one with every hit. The sound echoed around the wood land like thunder and lightening. Joseph dived on Tobias’ back and dragged him off, throwing him at a pile of rocks which smashed into smithereens upon impact.
     
      Upon realising the urgency, Joseph and Samuel sped off heading towards
     
    Catherine’s trailer, but Tobias was hot on their track. He soon caught up, dived through the air and landed onto to Samuel once again. Keeping a tight grip of Samuel the two vampires fell to the ground, but skidded along leaving a trail of dust behind them and a long line of skid marks. When they drew to a halt, Tobias attempted to rip
     
    Samuel to shreds but all of his attempts were dashed by Joseph who was promptly following his manoeuvres and intervening at all times. Between the two of them
     
    Joseph and Samuel managed to overpower Tobias and threw him completely off guard and temporarily stunning him. Taking advantage of the situation, they made off towards the trailer, leaving Tobias behind.
     
      Joseph was hoping to subtly get to the trailer as if nothing was happening and sneak Samuel in, but there was no chance of that now. Tobias would soon be hot on their trail again so they had to dash in and dash out with Catherine, which may involve fighting with any of the vampires that were guarding her.
     
      Joseph suddenly began to get second thoughts, but it was all too late for him now.
     
    He would be exposed as Tobias had already seen him. Joseph was worried that if he did with Samuel in taking Catherine then the new community would dissolve and he would have the wrath of Mathias and his community on his back also. He was in a no win situation and had no alternative but to carry on with his plan he had made with Samuel even though the risks were very high indeed now.
     
      Reluctantly, he continued with Samuel towards the circus and Catherine’s trailer.
     
    Luckily for them both the grounds were pretty much deserted on account of all the vampires being involved in the circus act. The loud blaring music could be heard from afar along with the sounds of the audience.
