Under The Moonlight

[Serenity’s POV]

I stare at Uncle Jose in disbelief as his brilliant plan settles around us.

Sneak in.

Did he really just say that he wanted us to sneak into a blood bank and steal human blood? Was he out of his mind? Didn’t he fear getting caught and then…

“What?” Uncle Jose asks, looking around at what I’m certain are mirrored looks of shock. “What’s wrong?”

“You’ve gone off the deep end.” My father huffs. “There is no way in hell that we are going to steal blood from a blood bank. I’m sure that Emerald Moon’s doctor will be able to get his hand on blood.”

“Aw,” Uncle Jose huffs. “You’re no fun.”

“We’re trying to save the world, not land ourselves in jail.” Uncle William points out.

“If you want to do that, you can do it yourself.” My father adds.

“Fine,” Uncle Jose huffs, his excitement over his idea fading from his eyes. “We will do it the boring way.”

“Great,” my father snaps. “I’ll go and call Tristan then.”
