she had chosen a pair of black jeans and a black tank top.
This outfit was accentuated by a lot of silver. Her boots were
combat style, reached her knees, and had all kinds of buckles on
them. She didn’t wear any bracelets because they usually made too
much noise, but she made up for that with a pile of silver chains
of all different sizes looped around her neck. Her gun belt rested
on her hips and held a gun on each side. I preferred the shoulder
holster myself. Of course, Christina wouldn’t be Christina without
her knives, which could be seen strapped onto her thighs. There
were most likely more knives on her body that we couldn’t see; she
always had several knives of different shapes and sizes on
her.
    “ Hey,” she greeted us as we
hopped down from the truck.
     
    I waved. “Hey. How is everything
here?”
    She shrugged. “It’s pretty quiet
tonight. Nothing so far.”
    Drew came around the front of the
truck and we all walked in together.
    “ What about you guys, how
was your night?” she asked. The front door clicked several times as
Gavin unlocked them for us. Once the door was open, we all filed
into the house and headed for the kitchen. I immediately went for
the fridge and got out a couple of water bottles.
    “ It was eventful,
actually.” I tossed one of the waters to Drew and uncapped the
remaining one. “We have some very, very interesting information
that everyone needs to know about, even The Board.”
    Christina’s eyebrows shot up. “That
important, huh?”
    The Board consisted of some of the
older Hunters. Once they didn’t go out on missions anymore, they
were made part of The Board. All decisions regarding the community
of Arcadia Falls or the vampire hunting missions were approved or
disapproved by The Board beforehand. I wasn’t a favorite of the The
Board at the moment. They were pissed at me because we went behind
their back and took down the Talon Building, a building made up
entirely of vampire run businesses. It was what started this whole
vampire apocalypse to begin with.
    Drew pulled out a chair and sat down
at the table. “Yeah, it’s something we all have to talk about and
soon. I’d rather not have to repeat the story to everyone
individually. After we, as a group, decide what to do, then we can
take it to The Board.”
    Christina and I had both joined him by
sitting down at the table. I eyed Drew; he looked really tired.
This whole situation was stressing everyone out. Hopefully, with
Anthony’s help, we could end it and some of us could actually get a
decent night’s rest.
    I began the process of taking my
weapons off and setting them on the table. “Do you think we should
talk to Luke about it before we tell The Board?”
    He nodded and I noticed Christina
nodding as well. “Yeah, we should definitely bring him over here
first thing in the morning and let him know what’s going on when we
tell everyone else.”
    Christina leaned back in her chair and
pouted. “You guys suck, now I really want to know what’s going
on.”
    “ I’m with her,” Gavin’s
voice stated over the intercom.
    Drew shook his head. “It’s only a few
hours, you guys. I have to get back to Arcadia Falls, and then I
will be back here first thing in the morning with Luke.”
    Christina stood first. “I should ride
back with you, I don’t want you going by yourself.”
    With a quick glance at me, Drew shook
his head. “No, I’ll be fine. Besides, you were watching the grounds
here.”
    “ I’ll do it.” I returned
one of my guns to its holster. Both of their heads swiveled in my
direction. “What? She’s right,” I insisted. “I don’t want you going
all the way back to Arcadia Falls by yourself, either. So,
Christina can go with you. I can watch the grounds until the sun
comes up, and then I’ll grab a couple of hours sleep before you
guys get back here with Luke. It’s the easiest way to do this right
now without waking someone up.”
    Christina flipped her
