The Lost Vampire System Chapter 54 - The Bullying Begins
The four of them agreed to prepare for the expedition, so Arden stayed in her room while Jareth, Damion, and Madison left. It was around 6 p.m. now, so for two hours, Madison and Jareth went into a training room in the building next to theirs and practiced with their weapons while little Sophia continued to sleep in his backpack. After that, they went to eat with their group of 11, and Jareth snuck food to Madison while pretending to chew. After all of that, the group decided to part ways to go to bed.
While Henry was in the bathroom, Jareth checked up on Sophia, who opened one of her eyes. When she saw her papa, she gave a little giggle before going back to sleep. Jareth smiled as he gently placed the backpack on the floor and went to sleep.
The next day had arrived, which was Tuesday, June 14, and once again, Jareth woke up to Damion's alarm. This time, though, he leapt out of bed just as Damion was getting up and beat him to the bathroom, closing the door.
"Vampires," Damion muttered as he sat back down on his bed.
Jareth got out of the bathroom and went to check on little Sophia, who gave a yawn, and unlike last time, her face opened up, showing her pincers before her face closed again. Henry said hi, and they changed into their uniforms and talked for a moment before Damion came out and Henry went in. Jareth opened up his system, and he only got the 5 exp from the sunlight but forgot to drink water.
Dang it, he thought. I must do that today. Let's see if I can evolve before the expedition.
When Henry got out, the three, with Jareth taking the sleeping Sophia along with his sword, went to eat breakfast. They arrived at the ground floor, and when the door opened, there was a group standing outside of the elevator. The three stepped out but were stopped by the group.
"Whoa there," the man at the front said as he glanced at their Forewatches.
"What?" Jareth asked as the guy looked back at him.
"You must pay the fee," the guy said. "You know, since you low levels will be no use in the Lyracken war. You should give your money to the strong so that you're not completely useless."
"So it begins," Damion mumbled.
"Begins what?" the man asked as he looked at Damion. "I just have good hearing. What is beginning?"
"The strong thinking that they are better than everyone else," Damion growled.
"We are, though," the man answered. "Isn't that right, fellas?"
The other three laughed as Damion reached over and touched Henry's forehead, which meant he copied his power. Damion leapt at the man, forming a small vine in his hands. The man reacted quickly as he sidestepped at a speed which was not normal and punched Damion in the face, sending him into the elevator up-and-down panel.
"I have a level 8 speed Evolved power," the man said as he used his power to run over, grabbing Damion's hair.
He pulled Damion up, and Damion grabbed the man's wrist, and little did the bully know that the tables had turned. Vines sprung out of Damion's skin, which wrapped around the man's arm. He tried to run, but Damion had held him tight.
"What the…" the man stuttered as he looked at his friends. "Help me teach him a less—"
He didn't finish as he was lifted into the air by the vines as he used the man's evo cells and applied them to the plant ability that he copied from Henry. The man's friends stopped as they looked at the sight in front of them.
"Let's teach you a lesson," Damion growled as he brought him lower and stomped on his leg, snapping it.
"Ow!" the man yelled as Damion threw the man at his friends, and they all crumbled to the ground.
The scene started to form a small crowd, and Jareth could feel his right arm being wrapped around. He turned his head and found that Mia had grabbed his arm.
"What's happening?" she asked.
"These kids were trying to take our money," Jareth answered his sister. "It ticked Damion off, and he broke one of their legs."
Meanwhile, Damion was walking up to them, and the vines grew and started to smush together into large fists. He raised them into the air and brought them down on the group of students, smashing them into the ground.
"Ow!" they yelled as the vines separated and started to wrap around them.
Damion lifted them up into the air, and just before he could do anything, Damion yelled in pain as he clutched his ears, dropping the students. Just as the students were dropped, he stopped yelling. Standing on each side of the students were two guards. They each had a circular device in one hand and were wearing cloaks that covered their faces.
"This fight is over," both of the guards said simultaneously. "Stop your actions before you do something that you will get in trouble for."
Damion got up and glared at the two guards, who were standing at the ready just in case Damion decided to continue. He stared at them for ten more seconds before the vines retracted themselves as he started to walk around the guards toward the cafeteria. The two guards looked to relax as they grabbed the four students and teleported away.
Jareth, Mia, and Henry started to walk at a fast pace toward Damion.
