Mike was still confused
about the whole vampire situation in town. He confronted Todd. “What about the
shadows that were spotted at the time of Diane’s exclusive parties, and each
time there was a full moon? Who or what were they? How—?”
Todd said, “At the time of
Diane’s parties, members of The Dead roamed the town at night to spy on the visiting
vampires and our secret meetings. They were desperate to ferret out information
that would help them destroy the peaceful vampires. But we were very careful and they never gained
access to the private events.
“As for the shadows recently
stalking all of you, they had to have been the turned human vampires from town
who were attempting to terrify you. It was part of their grand plan of bringing
murder and mayhem to town.”
Louise asked, “How did I
end up on the beach after Shirley and her gang had tried to hang me?”
“You can thank Gregg,
Ryan, and Judy. After they resuscitated you at the gazebo, they left you on the
beach. They also saved David by pushing him down the flight of stairs leading from
End House to the beach, so that he would be out of reach of the flying
creatures. They were very busy that night, coming to everyone’s rescue. In addition,
they led your group to the door in the basement that allowed you to escape from
the wild animals.”
Louise ran over to the
human vampires. “I owe you guys my life. I am forever in your debt.”
Gregg said,
“It was our pleasure; it was just part of our job description.”
Mike sighed. “There are just too many players
in this game; it’s much too hard to keep track of everyone.”
