Jacklyn!

"Jacklyn? are you there? Seriously, Where are you?" Scarlett asked.

"Where the heck are you!?" She asked more firmly.

There was nothing, Silence. Scarlett walked over to where Jacklyn was once standing. She tapped her phone vigorously to get the torch back on, it flicked back on and she shone it in the direction of where Jacklying was, Nothing, But the smashed torch glass. Scarlett instantly knew whoever was there was going to use Jacklyn as leverage to draw Scarlett to them. Scarlett left the room and walked up the steps and out into the main hall. She ran upstairs and went to look for Jacklyn. She heard a faint "screw you" coming from down the stairs that sounded like Jacklyn. She pelted down the stairs into the living room, Turning on the lights, Nothing. To the kitchen. Nothing. Scarlett made her way outside to where Ash was. Ash still remained outside, Standing there. Not even noticing the lights turning on, or that Scarlett was running around.

"Ash! Have you heard anything outside!?" Scarlett questioned.

Ash shook his head confused.

"Why?" he asked,

"Jacklyn. I don't know where she has gone or if she is playing some screwed up game" Scarlett said out of breath.

"She was literally following you though!" Ash said.

"I know! Then we went to the basement. She was too focused on Tate's decomposing body, and then I turn around. Nothing but broken torch glass and no Jacklyn" Scarlett explained

"Woah... That's still there?" Ash questioned

"ASH! This isn't the time. I'm going back in. If you see or hear anything! text me! " Scarlett said

She ran back in to look for Jacklyn one more time. Upstairs, downstairs, living room, kitchen, bedrooms, everywhere. She soon ran past the door to the basement and heard a loud crashing noise, like somebody being thrown into a wall, she knew that noise better than anybody else. So she went down the basement. Scarlett placed a hand firmly on the hilt of her sword. Ready to attack instantly. She ran as fast as she could down the stairs and stood in the basement door way. Scarlett slowly walk in and stood still, Shivers made their way down her back. She looked around and found Tate's body, not in the original spot it was, it has been moved by someone. It looked like it was kicked off to the side.

"Hmm, Weird." She very quietly whispered to herself.

"Scarlett!?" A voice yelled.

Scarlett drew her attention away from the body and instantly looked around. The voice was Jacklyn's. Scarlett began to panic a little bit.

"SCARLETT! Leave! "Jacklyn's voice yelled,

"Jacklyn! Where are you!" Scarlett panicked.

"This better not be some sick game you are playing!" Scarlett snapped.

The sound of Jacklyn's voice never returned. It vanished. Scarlett didn't hear a word for a while. No noise, no talking and no sounds, Nothing. She turned her back and made her way to the door. She heard a noise of a blade being pulled and instantly flung around, dropping her phone and pulling out her sword from the case and all you could hear was a loud crash followed by a echo of two swords counteracting. It was still pretty dark so Scarlett couldn't see much. She couldn't see who has crossed blades with her.

"Pretty brave of you to cross swords with a legendary hunter. Who the heck are you! You clearly ain't Manson nor Tate. They're both dead!" Scarlett snapped.

The whole time it just seemed Scarlett was fighting darkness. Swords clashing, Banging and echoing was all you could hear. Until something grabbed Scarlett's blade and yanked her to the other side of the room causing her to crash into the wall. She picked up her Katana, stumbled to her feet and tightened her grip on her sword. In a flash all she could see was a knife being thrown is her direction. She ran to the other side of the room, Again crossing blades in the pitch black. She backed up and bumped into Ash who was standing in the door way.

"Scarlett? What the hell is going on!?" Ash asked confused and concerned.

"Ash you need to go!" Scarlett yelled,

Ash looked confused at Scarlett and shook his head.

"No. Where is Jacklyn? Scarlett, what is happening? Where is she?" He demanded to know.

"I don't know. If I knew I wouldn't be here crossing blades in the darkness now would I? Please just stay out the way" Scarlett said.

Ash took a few steps back and stayed out of Scarlett's way like she demanded.

"Scarlett please don't. You'll get hurt!" Jacklyn's voice cried,

"Jacklyn? Where are you? Tell me where you are, I'll come to you." Scarlett asked.

She carefully proceeded to walk forward. She placed her sword back into the case carefully and walked over to the corner. Nothing, Again to the other, Nothing.

"Jacklyn? Are you in here?" Scarlett said concerned.

Before Scarlett could do anything else she felt a sharp blade penetrate her ribs. She slowly moved her head to find her blood dripping to the floor. Scarlett placed both hands on the blade.

"SCARLETT!!!!" Ash yelled as loud as he could.

Scarlett went crashing to the floor. Bleeding everywhere followed by Ash running towards her.

"Scarlett are you okay!?" Ash asked concerned running over,

"No-o-o. A-a-sh. Stay a-away" Scarlett stumbled to say.

Ash just stared there at Scarlett. He began panicking, not knowing what to do as Scarlett told him to stay away. So he listened to her.

Scarlett closed her eyes all she could feel was warm liquid around her and under her, soaking her clothes.

"Is this is? Am I going to die? have I reached the end" Scarlett muttered to herself.

A few mins later Scarlett opened her eyes everything was blurry but she could just make out Jacklyn's face.

"Your-r Ok-kay?" Scarlett asked.

Jacklyn nodded.

"Please. Leave her alone! She's nothing to do with you, please leave her be, Don't kill her. I'm begging you." Jacklyn begged.

Ash helped Scarlett to her feet and stabled her. He then looked over to whom Jacklyn was begging to, but he couldn't make anything out. It was just a figure. He tried squinting his eyes to try to figure out who it was.

"Please. No more." Jacklyn said.

"Huh? Thought you would of died. You really do live up to your expectations don't you? Scarlett? Legendary hunter and yet vampire?" The voice said.

"Who the he-e-ell are y-you?" Scarlett stuttered.

"How can you not recognize my voice? We have met before Scarlett. When you were training. Do you not remember me!? Come on you must. How could you forget me, I'm so hurt." The voice snapped.

"I'm afraid not, but this is the end of the line for you. I don't know who you are or why you are here, but I will not let you hurt my friends. So back away." Scarlett snapped, pulling out the blade inside her.

"Ash I think you need to leave. You shouldn't be here." Jacklyn said.

"What! No! You and Scarlett are both in danger! Who is this!?" Ash snapped.

"Ash! please!" Jacklyn begged firmly.

"Jacklyn, I said no." Ash replied.

"Yes Ashy boy, Better listen to the girl. You don't want to get hurt now, do you." The voice laughed,

"You better shut the hell up now!" Scarlett demanded.

The man slowly became more visible to Scarlett as she gained more consciousness. She pulled out her sword instantly.

"Now, now hunter, easy on there. There wont be a need for that" The voice said,

Scarlett grinned to herself and made eye contact with Ash who slowly back up away from them all. Jacklyn walked in front of the man.

"Jacklyn move. I don't want to hurt you in the process." Scarlett snapped.

"I can't let you do that," Jacklyn said.

The person was now one hundred percent visible to Scarlett and Ash at this point. Scarlett froze and just stood there. Then suddenly dropped her blade.

"Oh, my gosh. No. This can't be. Its been years. How!? How are you alive, tell me?" Scarlett asked confused.

The man grinned at her and pulled Jacklyn close to his side.

"Scarlett..? Who is that man?" Ash asked confused.

The man let go of Jacklyn.

"Why don't you tell them poppet? The voice mocked,

"Don't you dare say that to me. Guys... This is Heath. He is the worlds class top hunter. The man who trained Manson and Scarlett. Well, Scarlett before she abandoned his studies and moved on to a different trainer. He is the founder of the hunters. My uh... my...Step dad. He threw me out when he found out about me being friends with Scarlett a hunter and vampire and when he found out about my Werewolf curse." Jacklyn explained

"Bet your flipping werewolf butt I did. Betrayed me. My own stepdaughter, I am still disgusted. You still got that filthy mutt curse?" Heath asked.

Jacklyn slowly nodded.

"Oh hell. This is going to be some interesting adventure and fight." Scarlett muttered towards Ash.
