"Ughhh Math was so stressful! How could I possibly get exactly a passing score?" I closed my eyes and held my face because of frustration as I walk home from school.

I dragged myself on the way home but what I saw was something I was not expecting, now this is weird. From the other side of the street are a bunch of guys that looks like they came from a Halloween party or maybe they are allergic to the sun but whatever their reason is, I promise you they don't look like they're going to do something good in this neighborhood.

Our house is literally 5 house more but they are getting closer and closer so I hid behind a nearby tree hoping they wouldn't spot me. From this moment, my senses came alive from a very exhausting day at school.

As they come near my heart beats faster, they knock on every door handing out this flyers, could they just be advertising agencies? handing out their sale flyers? maybe, but has anyone seen anyone advertising in incognito costumes on a hot day?

"what are you doing?" a soft whisper sending shivers to my whole body almost gave me a heart attack, it was one of the weird looking incognito guys, but he's no longer wearing his glasses, he stared at me like he was saying something.

"dude you almost gave me a heart attack" I nervously said as I held my chest where my heart is beating so hard.

"Hide and I won't tell anyone I saw you" he whispered once more but now I'm much aware of it.

"why would I listen to you?" It could be a prank.

  "They are dangerous, we are dangerous so hide before you start regretting your choices," he told me, he could be right or he could be playing a prank on me but my instinct is telling me to just obey him. 

He took me into a nearby bush which is much more safer rather than a tree. It's itchy and dirty but do I have a choice?

"With all this interaction from humans makes me crave for fresh blood" They stopped at a nearby shade where I use to be making me a few walks away from them. This is nerve-racking.

"Then stop craving for blood, we're not here to have a feast or create a disturbance to human beings"

"Don't worry Jason, we'll have fresh blood after our mission"

"Stop talking about blood, people might think we are vampires and they might start freaking out"

"right" 

After that, really weird conversation that I might or might not want to eavesdrop everything fell into silence

knock knock

I never knew the sound of a person knocking on a door can give me a mini heart attack, I was fully covered into the bush so there is no way this weird looking guy that could be a vampire or zombie? or just plain weird human being that has a weird illness could spot me from my place but I was far enough for them to hear my breathing. 

"Have you seen this girl? She has a tan skin with dark brown eyes" It's the guy who talked to me earlier, I can tell by his voice.

"no" I heard aunt cecillia said. So they are looking for a person? I thought they were one of those useless guys that advertises a useless product or their sale

Or they could be kidnappers who're looking for the girl who escaped from their captivity before the girl speaks. Yes! They could be! my mom was telling me about them how I shouldn't stay late outside because a girl was kidnapped a few days ago.

Should I start reporting this to the police? but they are dangerous I'm still technically a kid. I have no proof to prove this. My phone is dead so I can't take a photo of them or recording. My instinct is telling me not to mess with them and I should just believe my instinct, I might be wrong, I'm always wrong on my suspicion. I need to find a hard evidence on them, but I can't do it. 

"Well, could we post this outside your house? if you ever see her contact this number immediately" 

"I will" the door closed. better luck next time losers, lol

While I was laughing in my mind, I felt someone was coming near. uh oh.

"Jason let's go!" Thank you, Whoever you are.

"Yeah okay" Phew.

When I got back home I went straight into my laptop ignoring the fact that my mom wasn't in our living room, but she might be cooking, anyway I searched things that I never knew I would search someday. I am 100% sure vampires aren't real or whatever they are, well they could be anything and by anything I mean human. 

Apparently, It is possible for a human to crave blood, based on an article I read. So I was still right, vampires don't exist

"Star, why were you home late?" Mom asked me from my door causing me to jerk a bit.

"I, we were doing something in school mom" Total Lie

She felt silent analyzing my answer whether it's a lie or the truth

"Uhm how's school? Anyway, there were guys looking for this girl and I thought the girl is vaguely familiar, have you seen her anywhere?" before I could talk, I was left speechless as my mom gave me the paper which I thought was a flyer at first. It was a sketch of a girl and you know what's weird and creepy?

It vaguely looks like me.
