Chapter Six: New Identified Threat:

Doyle wasn’t the only one who learned of Lauren’s existence.

Many others started to learn about her attacks from the news. A vampire that could walk around in sunlight? Already, she caused polarizing results. She could be of great use to the entire race. Or maybe be the death of it.

“But what shall we do with her?”

“We have to kill her! She is a danger to us all!”

“Aren’t we being too rash? She could help us win over these humans.”

“But we aren’t at war with them.”

“We could be.”

“It’s only a matter of time…”

The four main clans keep arguing with each other over Lauren’s fate. Her actions were too reckless for an experienced vampire. This would’ve been fine if she was just a newbie vampire. But, Lauren was advanced according to the man who turned her. It didn’t help that they couldn’t locate him anymore.

“You think that he was killed?”

“A strong vampire like him? That would be impossible. He’s probably in a deep sleep.”

“Is such a thing possible?”

“I guess.”

The discussion got more heated as the nights worn on. It didn’t help that the sketch of Lauren didn’t help matters. The humans even wanted to kill her or capture her for research. Both sides fought with their ideas on what to do with her. One young vampire stood up with an idea.

“Why don’t we capture her first?” he asked.

“What will we do with her after that?” the head of his house asked. The youth shrugged.

“That will depend on her,” he said. Gradually, the vampires of California agreed to capture Lauren and let her plead her case. Some of them weren’t so keen on this plan. A small band planned to kill her.

For now, everything remained low, but wound up. Whether they wanted to use Lauren, kill her, or capture her, they all wanted to see what would happen next.
