Darkest Time

Chapter 13: What Are We Going To Do?" Andy's POV

It's been about 3 days, going on the 4th day. We couldn't find Ashley, we didn't hear anything about the girls. It was starting to worry us. What if they got Ashley too, I was sitting at home with my cats. I did everything I could think of even trying to track them down. Ashley's phone was off now and I don't know if he turned it off, someone took it from him or what. I was messing with my cat and just relaxing. This was just too much for me right now, we should be on tour, we should be out on the road living like we were. Why didn't we just work things out with the vampire. Why did we have to jump into just killing him. There could have been a few things we could have did instead. My phone started to ring and look over to see that it was Jinxx.

"Hello, what's going on? You get any news yet?" I could tell Jinxx was in a car and Jake talking in the background about something. So that mean it was Jake driving.

"Yeah look outside, there is letter out there, they want us to meet them, we are coming to pick you up. There is a problem though. They won't have the girls with them, they are going to be back at the base. Dante wants to talk to us. We still couldn't find Ashley, I'm so worry about him." CC was in the hospital though we hard he was doing better, they just wanted to keep him in there for a few days because of how much blood he was missing. I hate taking people who were nearly drian of their blood to doctors that don't believe in the supernatural. But we know doctors that do take care of people. So CC is in good hands.

"Fine I'll be outside waiting for you guys. I'll see you when you get here." I hang up the phone, grabbed what I needed to and walked out of the house and closing, locking the door before going out front to the road watching for my brothers to show up.

I waited a few minutes before they pulled up to the house and I got in the back seat, I was reading the note I found on my door and was just looking out the window as Jake drove ups to the spot we were to meet Dante. We didn't know who would be all there but I did want to know if they had anything to do with Ashley going missing. I mean to not be able to find our brother, something happen to him.

"Andy, what are we going to do? I mean he won't have the girls with him, CC is in the hospital and Ashley could be anywhere by now. Something tells me that they have Ashley too." Jake kept his eyes on the road but I could tell he was worry.

"We see what Dante wants, then we make our plans from there. CC will be safe, I know he will be and if they have Ashley, who knows what going on. You didn't see him that night, he was scared, upset and as soon as I touched him he ran." I know I shouldn't blame myself, I should have waited for him to come to me before trying to touch his shoulder. I did blame myself that he ran off. He was upset and scared what he did to CC and I moved too fast and it caused him to run.

"Don't even go there, we will get the girls back and we with find Ashley too." Jinxx just looked back at me and smile before telling Jake were to go and turn.

We were in the middle of the woods now, no people, no lights, no sound but our car. We pulled up to the top of the parking space where the look out point was and got out of the car. We walked up to the look out point and was just looking over the city of LA. We couldn't believe we never been up heere before and the fact that we are up here now didn't make this the best memories.

"So you three did come, good because I have things I want to talk to you about." I turned around and was in shock. Dante never show himself like this before. He always stay behind the scene and let people take care of it for him. The fact that he was right here in front of us was rare.

"Where are they Dante? I want Alice back now!" Jinxx narrow his eyes and was ready to fight him.

"Jinxx, Jake calm down. We aren't going to get them back if we move without thinking or talking first." I looked him in the eyes. "So did you come alone or did others come with you and what do you want from us?" I watched and I seen Lilith, Luca and Nova all walk out of the darkness. Lilith had a sad look on her face and something told me this was about to turn into a game.
"I have my group here though the girls are hidden away. I see you looking at Lilith. Yeah she isn't too happen with what I have in plan. See we have your brother Ashley, poor guy was so upset for hurting his friend. It was easy for Lilith to get him to follow her, but she didn't know that I would be pulling the strings like I am now. Your girls are locked in a building with a very hungry vampire. Oh yes, I did do that." Dante just smirks evilly and we all knew what was coming.
"You son of a bitch! Ashley is in enough pain from hurting our one brother! How can you make him do this?" Jake was really mad now and shaking, I had to hold both them back before they did something that could end the girls life.

"What do you have plan Dante? What are the rules and what do we have to do?" I asked him calmly, I didn't like that he was using Ashley to kill the girls. I know he wanted a game. Meaning that he had Ashley locked up and hungry. Lilith just looked down and I could then see the tears. She really loved Ashley and Dante doing this to him hurt her too.

"You have it right, I do want to play a game. The rules are simple, find the girls with in 48 hours or they will be killed by your best friend that is blind with so much hungry he won't know who he attacked until after they are dead. It won't be like your other brother, they will be dead this time." Dante smirks, "Here's some clues, this place is haunted, it caused nightmares to someone close to you. Have fun, I need to get back." With that he left with his group everyone but Lilith left and I just looked at her.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know he was going to use Ashley. I would have never lead him away if I knew that would happen. I'm so sorry. I can't help you find them but I promise to help you in someway!" That fast she was gone but something told me it wasn't to go follow Dante. She was up to something all new to herself.

"This place is haunted and caused nightmares to someone close to you?" Jinxx thought a bit and his eyes snapped open. "It's my childhood home! That is where he has them." I sighs a bit I know he didn't want to go back there and we all knew about the horror that happen to his family there. He went back once before with his brother but never thought we had to go there again.
"Shit, that was really easy, so I'm guessing that mean we go there and try to get them out before running into Ashley. It could be a trap, what if it's not only for us to save them but for them and us to meet the same faith?" I hate when Jake would point things out like this.

"I don't care if it's a trap, CC is safe so we need to go get the girls and Ashley back. Even if we have to knock him out to do so. We can't let this happen. He was upset for hurting CC, what you think he going to be like when he find out he killed the girls??? He might just put a stake through his own heart. We need to go to him and now!" I ran back to the car, Jake threw me the keys and we hurry out of the woods and to the airport.

Yeah I know it was evil to use that but damn the guys need to hurry!
