Except for their eyes. Those were red. And their clothes were weird. Some of them, anyway. Some of them looked like they were wearing clothes from a really long time ago, like villagers in an old movie or something. They crawled down the sides of the buildings, like spiders sort of. And they had claws. Maybe you should just jump into my head and then you could see for yourself.” It would be easier that way. I was so lost in watching her devour her lunch, I wasn’t sure I was making a lot of sense. I took another small bite and waited for her to decide what she wanted to do.
“Okay, sounds good to me. Pull ‘em up.” She swiped at her mouth with a napkin.
It was so weird inviting someone else into my head. I hoped I didn’t accidentally show h

There were so many assumptions in that sentence, it made me wonder what Brandon was telling people. Or was he even speaking about it all? Maybe it had gone through the rumor mill enough that everyone had their own warped version of what had happened. I didn’t even want to think about what other people might be saying about me, especially some of the girls at training who have always thought Brandon was too good for me. “We just decided that I was too distracted right now, and I need to figure a few things out. That’s all.” I remembered that Heather had gone to Pizza Triangle with them the other night when I hadn’t, and wondered if she was thinking about going after Brandon herself. A stab of jealousy hit me right in the gut.“Uh huh,” Heather said, like she didn’t buy a word that had come out of my mouth. “I was surprised to hear he’d broken up with you. You was about all he could talk about when we was in the portal

I cried myself to sleep, but when I woke up, I was mad. I wasn’t sure what I was mad about or who I was mad at, but that’s how I felt. So I got up and went to my treadmill, hoping a few dozen angry miles would have me feeling better.Christian was still in the hole. There was no point in pushing beyond that, so I focused my attention elsewhere as I pounded the pavement. I needed to talk to Brandon.Going over the conversation we might have occupied my mind as the miles flew by. I could imagine what I would sound like going over and sitting on his couch, pulling up the picture I’d taken of Alex’s note, since I’d destroyed the original, and letting Brandon read it, trying to explain myself. “It’s not that I wanted to be with Alex. I just don’t know what I might want in the future.” It sounded dumb. I couldn’t say that to him. I revised the conversation and kept running.Guessing what he would say was prob

I couldn’t really blame Christian for not wanting to stumble around in the dark, especially since he probably didn’t know for sure that what he was hearing were actually people and not something else. I thought about the creatures. Now might be a good time to bring them up. Or maybe not, since he was so agitated. “Do you think they’re people? Not something else? Are we talking a few or a couple dozen?”“I don’t know!” Yep, he was angry.I should’ve let it go but I needed an estimate. “Could you make a reasonable guess?”“If I had to, I’d say a hundred. Maybe more.”I wasn't expecting that. My mouth fell open. That was a lot of people. This situation just kept getting weirder. “Okay....”“All right. Talk to you later.”“Yeah.” It seemed odd that he didn’t w

I set the papers down and rushed to the door. When I saw Cadence’s face, I was both relieved and irritated. “What the crap?” I asked, looking her up and down. She was so tan, she looked like she was born on the beach. Her hair was all wavy, and she had a glow about her like nothing I’ve ever noticed before. She should’ve been smiling and happy, returned from her honeymoon and reveling in wedded bliss. Instead, she looked just as worried as I felt. “Why are you here?” I asked, meaning why hadn’t she called me to let me know she was coming, but it didn’t come out that way, and I realized I needed to focus or she was going to think I wasn’t glad to see her. In actuality, the only time I ever remember being happier to see anyone was when Elliott was at my door after he died—and when I saw Brandon at the hospital after the portal.“Hi, sis,” Cadence said, giving me a hug and ignoring my snarkiness. &ldqu

“I was able to jump into some of the missing people’s heads to see them being turned. I figured out that there were five or six Vampires primarily responsible for turning them, or turning others who went on to turn a bunch on their own, and Mila’s team has been hunting them down and destroying them. But Mila doesn’t know I’ve been helping.” I added that part quickly, hoping that neither of them was communicating with Hannah or Aurora via IAC while I was talking. The idea that I could get in trouble for all of this wasn’t out of my mind.“Why doesn’t she know?” Cadence asked.“I ended up helping Eliza out, and she just never told them I was working with her.” I could’ve told them, I realized, but Eliza was easy enough to blame in this situation, and she owed me enough that I didn’t mind putting it on her. I couldn’t tell my sister about Christian yet. It seemed like they were going

We were almost to their office building when Aaron stopped in front of me and pulled on Cadence’s arm, bringing her to a halt as well. I braced myself for the inevitable doom of discovery. “Hey—can you get Christian?”Oh. Crap.Obviously, my sister had been talking to someone else because she’s not very good at using her IAC and carrying on a conversation with another person in real life at the same time, so it took her a second. “What? Christian?”A volcano began to bubble in my stomach, on the brink of eruption. No longer worried about protecting his secret, the threat of my own demise had me panicked. If they knew what I’d helped him do, they’d be so angry—at me.“Yeah, I can’t get him on the IAC at all,” Aaron said, putting his hands on his hips and staring at my sister, frustrated.Trying to be the voice of reason, I said, “He’s on vacation,” prayin

“Anyone else want coffee?” Elliott asked, pushing up from his seat. He smiled at me, knowing I wouldn’t want any but also feeling sorry for me for an entirely different reason than the one I was currently focused on. I managed a small smile.“I’ll take a cup, if you don’t mind,” Hannah said. No one else wanted any, so Elliott headed toward the door. Mrs. Carminati has a Keurig out by her desk.“What kind?” Elliott paused with his hand on the knob.“Barista prima, please. No creamer.” Hannah smiled at him in thanks, and I let out a deep breath.“You okay?” Jamie asked me as Elliott left the room and Aaron got up to grab something off of the printer. I could’ve gotten it for him....“Yeah, fine.” He nodded but I could tell by his expression he wasn’t buying it. I was so ready for this to be over.Aurora flew in the door and rushed to her seat.

“Why isn’t this all over the news?” Jamie asked.“I honestly don’t know.” That was a phrase Aaron didn’t say very often. He was looking at me, and I wished he wasn’t. “Cassidy mentioned that a lot of these people may be invisible—homeless, no families, no jobs. But not all of them.”“Could Christian have been controlling the media somehow?” Hannah asked. Again, I wondered why she wouldn’t know the answer to that question. What had she been doing the last two weeks? “Does he have that authority?”“To some degree, but I don’t think he would’ve been doing that. Why would he?” Aaron asked.“Maybe to keep things under wraps until you got back and we could handle it?” Hannah guessed.I almost laughed. She had no idea.... No one else had any idea either, so I asked a question I’d been pondering for days. “Is it po

Cadence was glowing, holding both of her babies, one in each arm. I smiled at her and then focused on Josephina. She wasn’t crying now, but her little face was wrinkled as if she might burst into tears at any moment. Aaron had his hand on her back, beaming with pride as he looked at his little family. Jamie and another Healer, Ona, were cleaning up a tray table, but I caught his eye, and he winked at me. I hoped he could tell how grateful I was. If it wasn’t for him and his life saving blue magical healing powers, not to mention his medical skills, Cadence never would’ve come back to life.“Where’s my new favorite lil girl?” Elliott asked beside me.“Hey! I’m your lil girl. You’re going to have to think of something else to call her.” I threw an elbow at him.“Oh, I’m just teasing,” Elliott assured me. “Still, she is definitely lil. And she is my girl.”“I&rsqu

I’ll never forget the day my sister died. Even now, eight months later, sitting outside of Jamie’s operating room with Brandon’s hand in mine, every time I think about what happened that day, I get tears in my eyes. So many things could’ve gone differently, if only one of us would’ve made a different choice. I’ve spent a lot of time reflecting on what I could’ve done differently myself that day, and even though everyone tells me there’s no point in dwelling on it, what’s done is done, it still haunts me sometimes when I’m trying to fall asleep at night, when I can so vividly see Cadence hanging there in the air before she plummeted to the ground, the whoosh of power that left my hand just missing its mark.The new Hunter Leader is a guy named Daniel Bower. He came in from California a few months ago. He’s awesome. I’ve known him for a while. He’s the one who helped capture Professor Stewart after th

I continued to beg and plead with her to come back to us. At fifteen minutes, Scarlet’s whispers were loud enough for me to detect what she was saying to Cale. “How long will he give it?”“I don’t know.” Cale seemed agitated and upset, certainly more connected to my sister than Scarlet. “Not yet.”“Please... Cadey, please.” I felt as far and as deep as I could, thinking about how I’d had to go so very far into her brain to plant that dream. The clock continued to tick. Cadence still wasn’t breathing, and Jamie began to sound desperate. At twenty-five minutes, when Jamie said “thirty,” his voice broke. He knew that the chances of her coming back to us now, after this long, were minute at best. He couldn’t give up, though. We couldn’t give up.Aaron blew two breaths of air into my sister’s lungs, and Jamie started counting again.Something was diff

After Aaron finally moved forward, I followed, staying back a little bit. I didn’t want to see her like that. I had never seen a person’s body after they’ve fallen that far, but I could imagine what it was like.Only when I finally did take a few hesitant steps around the trees, Brandon’s hands on my shoulders, she didn’t look like I expected her to at all.Cadence was lying flat on the ground with her hands folded over her abdomen, sort of like Snow White. Her feet were out straight, and her hair was blown out around her. She looked absolutely beautiful. And still. So very, very still.Jamie was doing chest compressions, and when it was time to breathe, Aaron did that for my sister. Some sort of automatic pilot must’ve turned on for him because his movements were very robotic. Jamie would say thirty, and Aaron would breathe into my sister’s open mouth twice before Jamie started counting again.Tears were rolling

“No!” My scream echoed across the mountainside as I watched in horror as my sister fell. I cannot guide what I cannot see, and I didn’t have a chance to get a grip on her before she plummeted. My hands shot out in her direction, but the surge of power I’d sent to grab her went over her head. I saw a streak of blue do the same and knew Jamie had missed as well.Fumbling through Cadence’s stream of consciousness, I tried again, hoping I’d be able to figure out how to get my powers around her before she hit the ground, but she was moving too fast, and without my eyes on her, I wouldn’t be able to get a grip.Part of me wanted to at least jump into her head, to be with her, to let her know she was okay, but then, the thought of what she was about to endure, when she hit the tops of the trees and then cascaded down through them to the earth, I couldn’t bear the thought, and I knew she wouldn’t want me to see it.I

“Brandon!” I shouted, floating over to where he had disappeared. He didn’t answer, and I realized he must’ve fallen all the way in. “Dang it.” I looked around the battlefield. I knew he was safe down there, but I hated that he was in that miserable place. Cadence was firing at Daunator now while Christian moved in, to place the grenade, I assumed, so I thought perhaps she’d be safe for a few minutes. I decided to help Brandon.“Are you all right?” I asked, using my telepathy.“Thank goodness,” he thought, probably not even to me. “Yeah, I’m fine. It’s just really dark in here.”“I know. Hold on, and I’ll get you out.”“If I hold on, won’t it be harder for you to get me out?”“All right smarty pants.” I needed to focus all of my energy if I was going to do this

“You okay?” Brandon shouted to me as he moved a little closer to where I was standing. The holes in the ground were not shaking now as much as they had been before, but they were still an obstacle we had to consider. I didn’t want him to get too close because of my tornadoes, but I was glad he was nearby.“Great,” I called back, sending another pile of creatures over the side of the mountain.Aaron was fighting his way through the crowd of black creatures, working his way to Cadence. The path was getting clearer, as far as the minions were concerned, but once he got within about a hundred yards of Cadence’s location, one of the Vampires that had been engaged with our forces closer to the top of the mountain broke off, clearly on his way to intercept the Guardian Leader.Whether he liked it or not, Aaron wasn’t alone now. I wasn’t sure where she’d come from, but Eliza was running parallel to him, fighting off
So You Think Your Sister's a Vampire? Chapter 547
Moving the black creatures off of the ledge worked well, and I was just starting my second round when I realized my sister had taken off running toward Daunator. Christian had reached him already, a grenade in his hand. I prayed he didn’t get sucked down into another hole. The fact that Cadence was so far away from Aaron was worrisome, but he was busy with the creatures. While Cadence was slowed a few times by the minions sinking their teeth into her arm or grabbing at her heels, for the most part, they seemed to be letting her through, which seemed like a bad sign to me. Did Daunator want her to fight him?A blast of light illuminated the mountain, and then a wave of smoke obscured my view of Christian and Daunator. He’d thrown a grenade, the old kind, the ones he knew wouldn’t work. When the smoke cleared, Daunator’s laughter echoed through the air, and Christian went flying twenty feet in the air.Paul’s voice came over the IAC as I tos

Christian’s eyes widened. “Get out of here? We can’t. We have to get Daunator.”“We will. But for now, we need to go back and regroup. The most important thing is that you’re safe now,” Cadence explained to him.Christian was starting to freak out again. “No, Cadence, you don’t understand. We can’t just leave from here! We can’t just let him go!” His eyes were wild, and he reached forward and grabbed my sister’s shoulders. That lasted about half a second before Aaron grabbed him and pulled him off.“Listen, Christian, I agree. It’s important we come back and end this, but you need medical attention. And a good visit with Hannah.”And a shower, I thought to myself. But I was staying out of this one for the moment. I felt a stirring in the ground and a shift in energy somewhere further up the mountain. The argument was about to be moot.“No,
