tonight.”
Tricia’s costume and demeanor were a spitting image of Yuffie, complete with ninja-mesh mail and a protective gauntlet over her left shoulder.
“What if I win?” Jaden smirked, flexing his shoulder plates. “Then it would still be a win for you since you designed and created my costume.”
“You just might, Zack Fair. You’re especially sexy after a fight.” She wiggled her hips and laid a kiss on his other cheek, the one without the stitches.
“Hey, Jaden, Ella.” Tricia dragged several guys wearing superhero tights over. She hugged Ella. “Lightning, you look awesome. Love that cape. I can’t believe you let Jaden keep you from dinner.”
Ella’s stomach growled at the reminder and she smiled sheepishly at Jaden. He tucked a kiss behind her ear and said, “I’ll go to the bar and get you some grub and a drink.”
“You’re an angel.” She squeezed his fingers and let go.
“Come on, let’s go to the pavilion and take pictures,” Tricia said.
Ella happily joined in. She posed with Tricia and joined a group of Final Fantasy characters. Everyone talked in their character’s voice and demoed the special features of their costumes, except for weapons. They were forbidden since there had been a few accidents the year before.
She flitted from one group to another, roleplaying and acting her part, before remembering Jaden hadn’t returned.
“Jaden’s not back.” she said to Tricia. “Which direction did he go?”
“The bar’s that way.” Tricia pointed to the corner of the ballroom. Just then, a Cyclops X-men character asked Tricia to dance.
“I’ll catch you before the competition,” Tricia yelled as she bounced with the guy to the floor.
Ella made her way toward the bar without spying Jaden. She’d left her cell phone upstairs and had no way to contact him. Everywhere she turned, men in capes blocked her way. She sidestepped them and decided to go out the door to the patio and circle around to reenter on the other side.
Jaden shouldn’t have been gone this long. Could he have went back upstairs to confront the jocks? A warm shiver skittered down her spine at how protective Jaden was, an alpha male who refused to back down, even when the odds were stacked against him.
“Well, look who’s here.” A wall of vampires emerged from the shadows. One spread his bat wings and swooped toward her, grappling her and twisting her arms behind her back.
A sinister laugh froze the hairs on the back of her neck. “Your boyfriend couldn’t leave well alone. He got us kicked out of the suite.”
“Where is he?” She struggled and kicked at the guy holding her.
“He’s going to fight Rock there, in the desert.” He pointed her face at a solid hunk of a man dressed in black. He raised his bat wings and exposed bloody fangs.
“No, let me go. He doesn’t want to fight.”
The guy holding her picked her up and threw her over his shoulder.
She screamed, pounding his back. “Help, let me go, help.”
A werewolf pulled out a camera phone and took pictures. “Awesome show. Hellsing Vampires against Final Fantasy.”
A crowd gathered, laughing and pointing. “Go Hellsing. Boo for Final Fantasy.”
“He’s not playing, let me go.” Ella pulled and twisted the guy’s hair.
He threw her to the floor and she stumbled, hitting her side on a concrete garbage bin.
“What happened to your gunblade, eh?” Another vampire jeered, ripping off her dark red cape.
Another set of hands untied her sash and tore her coat open. “You little slut. Let’s see what you have underneath.”
“Stop it, stop, please, this isn’t fun.” She chopped at him and tried crawling between his legs to escape.
Muscular arms wrapped her in a black cape, rolling her up and someone tied a gag around her mouth.
Panic clawed at Ella’s throat and adrenaline spiked through her blood as her heart dived to the ground. They were going to rape her this time, and no one was around to save her.
