EPISODE 6: DAD'S HEART
I arrived at the mansion, and it would seem no one realized that I had gone out, I should be in school, nonetheless, Lucas request got me worried, like a lot. It's been ages dad past away, how then was his heart still beating?... I phone Justin, he was supposed to tell me what I wanted know, however disappointing to adhere his surprise, he also had no idea about the heart of Dracula still functioning... He volunteered to go to the tomb and help me to retrieve the heart, then again, do I really want too, all for Margaret's nudes not being exposed. I desired as much help I can get, and come to think of it, going into the tomb of the Great Dracula is not going to be an easy task. Morgan walks into my bedroom. "Bro? I want your help". He walked further and met me seated comfortably on the bed. I had to disconnect my calls with Justin and then answered his question. "Help?. What help?". I placed my phone upside down on the bed. Morgan saw that but didn't question me about it.. "Bro, it's about a girl, I like her so much but I don't feel the spark?". He confines in me. Surprised by his sudden interest in girls, I asked, " what do you want from her, relationship or you just want to smash!?". I wanted to weigh his actual needs. It's no news that many boy's get into a relationship because they want to smach a girl, thanks to mom, I was thought to respect ladies and If I want to get into any relationship, I should be able to love her... I discussed with Morgan the few things I know about lady's, and while we did that, I sensed my heart beginning to feel heavy. I pressed my chest, Morgan noticed that and asked. "Bro, is everything okay?". He removed my hand from pressing hard on my chest and pulled closer.. "Yeah! I am fine,". I breath in and out while conversing with him. "Okay, I'll let you rest okay,". He taped my shoulders twice, grinned and then walked out of the bedroom.. Maybe I needed sleep? I thought to myself, I change into something comfortable and laid my head down to rest, slowly the nosies around stop and I was transported to a place, an old and beaten down cottage with barbwire on the Gates.. While , as skeptical I was about going in the cottage, I had to gather enough courage too, Inside, a man was sleeping on the couch, Bottles of beer were surrounding him, anyone who saw him will immediately figure out that he had too many bottle of beer... I approached the room of the cottage in the corner, I peeked inside and it was as messy as the living room.. and just as I turned back to leave, the man got up from the couch,and grabs another bottle of beer on the ground.. He went outside, I followed him, i stood at the porch and watched him pace back and forth holding the bottle in his hand, he was a drunken mess, after sometime a dark jeep stoped and a man came down with a fierce expression on his face.. I wondered who the man was, the one drunk, rushed over and submissively knelt on the ground. "Master, you came". He said with his head bowed down in respect . "Where's the heart?". The man who he knelt before said. "I don't know yet, but as soon as I get it, I'll bring it to you?". The other man responded back. "Better? You don't fail me, I want to the heart of Dracula and immediately?". He pushed the man of the man, turned around and then walked back into his car.. What did I just here? They are also searching for the heart of Dracula as well? I don't understand, what's so special about my dad's heart and why are so many people after it?.. I woke up panting from my sleep, sweats dripping from my forehead as I went down to the kitchen for a glass of water. I opened the refrigerator and once again, I sensed my heart heavy again. It was like a huge load had been dropped on me to bear, definitely, something was wrong and I needed to find out. The following morning, I was to go to school but I had other engagements, I phoned Justin and we were both planning to meet at the coffee shop in Town, the only good and decent coffee shop i could afford to have their coffee flushed down my throat. "Derek, anything the matter?". Justin asked the moment he saw me walk through the door of the coffee shop. "Good morning, I need your help?". I sat down on the chair in his front and asked. "What happened? Anything the matter?". He questioned again. I swallowed a deep breath and replied back to him, " yeah! It's about dad's heart?". I said. "What about him, I told you it's impossible for Dracula's heart to beaten after being dead for over a decade,". He disposed my idea.. He was right, it's impossible for my dad's heart to still pump out blood despite being dead for a decade, however, I do feel that Lucas map and that dream, proves that there's tendency that Dad's heart is still pumping out blood... I had to beg Justin to accompany me, he had promised too last night but he changed his mind after thinking about the wide goose chase we were about to head out to. I had second thoughts about going to the tomb where Dad was buried, nonetheless, I did, Justin accompanied me, he had second thoughts about going inside the tomb, i am Dracula's son yet i was driven by the imagination of dying.. I passed through the wooden door and before me was a casket, Justin pulled me back, " don't go!" He tried stopping me and as much as I wanted to listen to him, I was obligated to retrieve the heart of Dracula and then take it home with me... So , I opened the casket, I looked inside and there was a body rottened and smelling, it was filled with nothing other than sand or so I thought, when my eyes wandered further and to my surprise it was Dracula's heart.. It was still beating despite being dead for ages.. "Whoa?" Justin exclaimed when I brought the heart of Dracula back, he opened the huge handkerchief and wrapped it gently.. "What's do we do now?". He asked me... I didn't know but what I knew was that, I had to go back home and take the heart to Lucas, or was I?... Charles and his children were already out to school, and it have me the leverage to walk Into the mansion without anyone questioning me about my whereabouts.. Justin gets a call from the pack back home and decided to leave me alone with the heart of Dracula, he didn't want too, but har to go after convincing him of not allowing me bond with someone i know. I knew new dad while growing me, I was a child When he died, mom only praised him and showed me everything he accomplished, the only thing he didn't do was to gain friends, my dad got so many enemy it's impossible not to have my life in danger, after all, I am Dracula's son but more powerful than he was, I am a hybrid after all... Keeping the heart anywhere inside of my bedroom wasn't going to be safe, and so I had to hide it in a box and throw it underneath my bed. I then left for school, I came in time before the school assembly began, from the crowd I saw Lucas eyed me so harshly, I already have the heart of Dracula, the only problem lies with the fact, that I do not sense it will be a good idea to give something as the heart of Dracula to someone who's careless and selfish. "Where's the heart?".. After the assembly Lucas came and asked me.. Didn't I tell him I'll get the heart test him by weekend??.. "It's not weekend yet or is it?".. I brought my school bag and answered him. "Oh! I see?". Lucas nods his head, ' I'll see you on Saturday evening in school ". He gave the day I'll hand over the heart to him, there's no way I would want to give him something so powerful, and then I thought of something I could do to stop him from lying his hand on it.. "Derek!!?" Margaret saw me leaving the assembly hall and ran after me. "I heard what you did, thanks!". She spoke after settling her breath. "What did I do?". Curious, I asked. "Oh Derek, don't be modest, I heard you got Lucas to delete the video on his phone," she put her hand on my cheeks and softly caressed it, " thanks! I'll see you at home!?". She waved after removing her hand to my face. How did she hear about what happened? Did Lucas perhaps tell her the truth?..EPISODE 7: OH! MOON DAY It was the weekend and it was time to hand over the heart to Lucas as the other pieces to gather Dracula's body were still being fetched, he didn't want to tell me where and how it would come but I wasn't willing to stand idle and watch them resurrect my dead father for over a decade back into the world."Good morning Derek?"..Speaking of the devil, we both met at school without the knowledge of others."Good morning, sorry I couldn't meet you the other time,?".I said, taking out the box I kept the heart."Nah! It's good, we are happy this has come?".With a joyful expression on his face, he glared at the heart.He closed the box and put it in his red velvet bag..."Thanks!". He grinned and turned around to leave when I stopped him and said."Lucas! I need your help". I said, making him turn his head and look at me, " help? What do you need" he said as I gained his curiosity..What I was about to say would determine everything, I don't think I would be a pe
EPISODE 8: MAN- HOLE.It was difficult for me to expose the truth to Charles but what was I suppose to do, I needed his help. So, I had just finished telling him everything that happened and I didn't hide the fact validity about the heart of Dracula.."Wait, what?". He brought his hand and pulled me closer. "Did you really see the heart of Dracula?". He asked me again.."Yeah! " I nodded my head and showed him a picture I took of the heart on my phone..."Oh no! It's happening " he said in a fearsome statement.."What? If it's the prophesy, I know that!". I acknowledged to him. "Wait? You do?" He exclaimed..I told Charles everything I was told about the Resurrection of Dracula, my godfather still had his face plastered with anxiety. He turned back to me afterward and said.."That's not all?". He gave me back my phone and ran to the library, I went in after sometime and he was there s scattering the books on the bookshelf..."What are you looking for?". I asked him.."A book?" I
EPISODE 1: A FRESH STARTI'm considered a demon when people find out that I am the son of the feared and despised Dracula. My dad, when he was alive caused a lot of havoc, I wouldn't want to hide the fact that he made a lot of people hate and repel him until he died, my mom, Linda, was a lowly waitress, she's human but it didn't stop people talking back at her, they also despise her for falling in love with the devil himself and bearing him a son, That didn't matter to mom, as long as she had the man that she loved and her son, my anticipated arrival begot an unfriendly change, the gods didn't just bless me that which I should yield, they blessed me with the power of the two's, the power of not only a vampire but that of a werewolf.Before Dad passed away, I was asked to go and live with my godfather and his children, Margaret and Morgan Vincent. "Bro! Welcome!!"...Morgan helped me with the luggage immediately after I came down from the cab, and I took it from home.We were almost g
EPISODE 2: IT'S OKAY NOT TO BE OKAY.I was taken to a party by the same boy who wouldn't even take a step outside his father's house the moment it clocked six in the evening, although the night wasn't as dark as now, my godfather's son had become brave, like a lot."So, can you tell me who's party is this?". We both came down from the car as I asked him. Morgan giggled, "Don't stress, you'll know," he said the same thing he had back at home and went into the party that was at a cabin, deep in the middle of nowhere...I went in, however, Morgan wasn't the only one who had come, because I caught Margaret kissing some guy at the party, Remember when I said, she's become a lady, now I can confidently say, some things have changed between Morgan and his sister.Margaret's attention was on the lips of the boy she was kissing so passionately.I came to the bar and asked the bartender to give me a bottle of beer, he nodded at my question and went to attend to other people who were surround
EPISODE 3: THE NEW BOY IN SCHOOL.I got enrolled in the academy by my godfather, after all, he owned the school. Morgan was instructed to help me in scheduling my classes for the entire semester, we were both leaving, and then I came to see Margaret getting forced on by the same dude at the party, Lucas."Hey, stop!". I came forward and dragged Margaret behind, I had no intention of fighting. Morgan in his anger, pulled me away and punched Lucas right in the face, which warranted a huge dispute between the both of them.But thankfully, one of the teachers was invited into the scene and she asked us all to go into the detention room and cool off for a while.I don't think I'll ever cool off, after all, he was trying to abuse Magret and I'll never turn a blind eye to what's the Truth."What did I tell you both about fighting?".Charles invited us into his office and reprimanded his children, myself included. "Daddy! Lucas". Margaret was to defend herself but her dad didn't let her ,
EPISODE 4: BEAUTIFUL YET STUPIDOnce again I was tossed out of Magret's bedroom like a stranger, since she wasnt going to talk , I went straight to my bedroomEven came and I came down for dinner, Charles and his children were already eating when I walked in."Good evening son, please come sir"?. Charles invited me, he pointed me to the chair that was next to his daughter. I grinned and walked over , I closely glimpsed on Margaret glance, she scurry looked at me , until Morgan spotted the same and asked her."Sis, what happened, why are you staring at derek in such a way?". He questioned, Margaret perked up scared and she lied, " look at who? No I'm not" she turned her face over to her dad and requested to take her dish to her bedroom.There's something strange about Margaret, but what?..Charles excused his daughter, she leaves with her dinner but forgot to take her glass of orange juice with her .Morgan wanted to go up to her bedroom to give the glass to her, I was curious to have
EPISODE 5: PAYDAY IS MAYDAY .I went to school the following morning, I did not informed Morgan nor anyone at home, I didn't go because I had an early morning class, I went because I got information Lucas and his friends would be coming to school early to practice for the football happening in two weeks.I waited for his arrival like I was waiting for the prince of England, it was starting to get uncomfortable and I was beginning to feel like I shouldn't have come, just then the one in question walked in,he has his jersey on, he giggled with his friend's, as they all came outside of the gym room together.."Good morning bro! Can we talk!". I stopped him and said.."Talk? Why!" He looked at me twice before asking.."It's important, please" I said politely again, anyone in my shoes won't be able to talk calmly with someone who has his girlfriends nude in his phone..Lucas rudely declined my offer."Nah, go away" he poked my shoulder, I hated getting my shoulders pushed, he did it the fi
