Louise's POV

"But you were, we thought you were..."
I said snapping Pete out of his daze.
"I almost was, I would have come back but they were after me more than you."
He said looking down at his feet whilst running a hand through his blonde hair, I remember when it was raven black. I just nodded suddenly feeling too tired to talk as my vision clouded yellow.
"P..pete..?"
I whispered as the light began to sting my eyes sending pain shooting through my head. He knelt down beside me and attached a chain to my hands.
"Listen to me L, the venom is starting to turn you so you need to let me bite you ok?"
His words slid over me like silk and I nodded, vaguely aware of what was happening until his fangs pierced my pale skin. I gasped but the pain began to fade until a ringing started from somewhere distant and the world turned black once more.

*time skip*

"L? L come on wake up!"
A blurry voice said as I was shaken awake. Opening my eyes, I saw the world as sharp as a knife edge. The scent of blood was strong and it felt like it was reeling me in towards it, inviting me to drink.
"Hey, calm down! Here."
The voice said once more as the person who had spoke handed me a blood bag which I began to sink my new pearly white fangs into. The smooth liquid ran down my throat as I gulped down as much as I could. It was like I hadn't drank anything in weeks and without this I'd die and that codependence scared me a lot. I gradually slowed my drinking as the blood lust ended and the bag began to run dry.
"So I guess I'm a vampire now?"
I said laughing a little and standing up, still not matching Pete's height despite how short he is. Realising the full extent of what happened and what Patrick and Andy must be feeling I began to panic.
"Pete what about Patrick and Andy? Have you told them? Have you seen them? What happened?"
I shouted pacing back and forth whilst Pete's hazel eyes turned black reflecting the panic in my own black vampire eyes.
"I...No..."
Pete said, guilt lacing his voice. I grabbed his arm and dragged him towards the door where my remaining sword was laying. I picked it up and kicked open the door, still dragging Pete along behind me.
"You don't understand Pete, we were so close... they're probably dead by now or at least taken."
I said trying to calm my breathing as I let go of Pete's hoodie letting him walk beside me. Knowing the Maligno clan had probably got to them already, I headed deeper into vampire territory.
"Where are we going L?"
Pete said looking around the abandoned buildings warily.
"To find the Maligno clan, ever since you and Joe..."
My voice cut off and I stopped walking as I closed my eyes to stop the tears from falling.
"They were hunting you? But why?"
Pete whispered, wrapping his toned arms around me as his head rested on mine.
"We were close to finding a cure but they found out and since Andy was the only strong fighter we had left me and Patrick had to train more incase they found us. A couple of times they did, we almost died."
The image of Andy passed out in a puddle of crimson blood and Patrick's smooth skin marked with scratches flashed through my mind as the fear I felt then resurfaced.
Pete turned me around to face him as he looked at me in shock,
"You almost found a cure?!"
He said excitedly.
"Almost Pete, but it's worth nothing if the rest of my family are dead."
I said as Pete cringed at the word dead. He took my hand and led me down the shadowy streets.
"Let's go save them then."
