chapter 5 part 2

 It was an early Christmas morning, David wakes up and hours before anyone else. He looks into the room deemed as Tylers. He pulls out the tape and rope. He quickly and efficiently ties down Tyler, double loop knot. He pulls it tightly so Tyler would not be able to move once he wakes up. David then tapes Tyler's mouth shut.

David pulls out one of the thin sharp knives he watched his dad use once to gut a fish. The length of the knife all together from tip to handle is roughly nine inches. The shine to the blade is almost hypnotic. The sharpness rated on the high side, imagine as if you took a frozen block of cheese and barely with a flick of the wrist cut it in half. Davids eyes take on the red hue of the vampire queens that lays inside him. David cuts Tyler from his left shoulder to his right and down his torso. He then peels Tylers skin and muscles back. By now Tyler's eyes are wide open, he's scared and frozen still half asleep but in worlds of pain. 

 "Oh Tyler, you steal the praise of the teachers. But once you steal my parents, that is where I draw the line… well lines in your case." David said softly with a dark chuckle. Tyler wiggles under David trying to get him off of him as he muffles something along the lines of 'David. Get off i'm scared. Help.' David shakes his head as the smile on his face sides more. He applies pressure on Tyler's left lung making him scream in agony. He lets go when Tyler calms down a bit. "Now now. We can't have mummy and father waking up. Before I'm done with my christmas fun." Tyler shakes his head wildly and starts to thrash about. David rips open one of Tyler's lungs collapsing it. David then works quickly breaking Tylers ribs with the inhuman strength the queen gives him. Once he gets to his goal he rips Tyler's heart out and shows it to the suffocating Tyler. 

 "You make a decent meal for the queen. She accepts your heart." With that David bites into Tyler's heart devouring it as Tyler helplessly watches as he gasps in his last breath. Once happy and content the queen falls back into her deep slumber. David blinks and looks at the mess under him and screams. "MOMMY!" David may have been really mad at tyler before this but he didn't want to kill him. 

Molly jolts awake from the blood curdling scream David just let out. She scrambles out of bed and down the hall with Jared at her heels. Once they take a few steps into the room they both gasp and look at david. "What have you done david?! He was your best friend. Now what are we going to do? How do I explain this to his parents?!" Molly starts to pace the room pulling out her phone. She texts Tyler's parents to call her when they get the next free moment, its urgent. She then motions for Jared to make sure David doesn't move as she calls the cops. 

"Daddy. I...I didn't mean to. I got really hazy. Then everything went dark. Then once I woke up ...I didn't have control of my body. It was like a movie. The lady took over again. I think I scared… I scared little Vlad." With that Davids eyes roll into the back of his head and he faints and falls onto the body under him. Jared stands there in shock and thought. 'So this was the work of that vampire. Wait ...little vlad? He's an only child...oh don't tell me...he's crazy to top this all off. Maybe this will work in our favor. We have him plead guilty. And crazy. He gets counseling and medication for life. We keep our baby.' Jared pulls out his phone and emails an old family friend..in a higher place. 

The next hours go by in a blur. Tyler's parents crying. Blaming David's parents for shitty parenting and supervision. The police arriving cleaning up hauling the body away, taking statements. Taking them all to the police stations. As this is all going on jared manages to get Morrigan to show up, Morrigan a 28 year old 6'4 muscular mob boss. Who happens to run the best hotel and law firm you could ever ask for strolls into the police station and picks up David and boops his nose. "So, this cutie did what now? I am his lawyer." With a dazzling smile that drips power he takes his seat and places david on his lap and eyes Sheriff Ablenkungsmanöver. 

 The sheriff clears his throat and his accent slightly pokes out. "He murdered his friend."

Morrigan stands up and puts the child in his hip. "Well you know where my hotel is. Send a lackey over with the court date. I'll hold the family." The sheriff blinks at a loss of words as the family and the mob boss walks out. A few hours later they made from the police station to the cabin, packed it up and made it to the hotel. "Now. Molly, Jared filled me all in. Gave me pictures and audio of what little david here said to him before he fainted. We can't say he's innocent. But we can talk them into medication and therapy. And parole...he can live a fairly normal life. But he will always have to check in until they find him 'sane' as they would put it."

Molly is across from Morrigan holding Jareds hand as she watches david asleep on Morrigan's lap. She says softly as if not to wake David, "so this will be the best option? We will be able to keep our baby? We aren't bad parents?" Morrigan looks her in the eyes. "No you are not bad parents. You guys hold a special case. As i'm sure jared told you of the night he went and took that short cut?" Molly nods and looks down. "And you know he's not lying by the red hue. And the fangs. It's still hard to wrap your mind around i know. But it is my people. That is our queen. I will keep your family safe. And find the proper vessel for the queen to leave our little David."
