Re: Ctrl + V
Peter wondered where Kyle could be going…he could not see him anywhere.
“Kyle!” Peter called. “Kyle, where are you?”
It was very dark but Peter had no trouble seeing. He was just feeling nervous.
“Peter!”
Peter jumped in surprise and saw Jasper.
“Jasper…you nearly killed me…”
Jasper grinned and said, “We can’t be killed. So have you seen—?”
Peter shook his head and the smile vanished instantly.
“So why do you think…he— he ran away?” Jasper said in a low voice.
“I think he got Vampire Madness again,” Peter murmured. “You saw him attack me.”
“He was fine until we got home from our walk!” said Jasper, frowning. “Then Owen asked what happened, and he just plunged into a bad mood…”
“His eyes were normal though,” Peter said.
“I don’t know,” said Jasper, shaking his head, “I wasn’t paying attention to his eyes. His eyes probably weren’t normal.”
“I guess I wasn’t paying attention either,” Peter mumbled.
“We’ll find him, Pete, okay?” Jasper said, trying to comfort his friend. “We just have to be quick before he does anything bad…to hurt others or himself.”
“Should we separate?” Peter murmured. He was avoiding Jasper’s gaze.
“No,” Jasper said. “We must stay together…”
“Should we hunt if needed?” Peter asked.
Jasper stared at his friend. “Peter, we don’t need to hunt! What, are you thirsty again?”
Peter didn’t answer this question. Instead he said, “Fine, let’s go then” in such a rough voice that Jasper had a bad feeling that Peter had Vampire Madness as well…
