Back at the estate, the tired vampires went to their respective rooms. But halfway up the stairs,
Jason paused, then turned. He was a bit confused about everything that was going on.
He never usually cared how people felt about him but for some reason, Eli being angry at him
made him uncomfortable. He didn't want to intrude but he did want to talk to him as early as
possible, so he just sat outside the guy's door. He waited patiently in the dull gloom of indoor
day, and eventually fell asleep there.
The day slowly drew some of the city's moisture into the sky, where it joined the faint haze of smog.
Eli was dead and Jason was dead, but something roused the latter momentarily to consciousness.
Gaston-Louis knelt above him and prodded his shoulder with a hand. Jason's dead eyes were near
blind in the heavily draped hall, but they adjusted enough to see the older vampire after a long
moment.
They stole into Eli's room, like the veriest of ninjae. Gaston-Louis gestured for Jason to stand
near one side of the main window, and he stood by the other. He abruptly pulled the curtain wide,
shattering Eli's universe.
He flopped around like an undead salmon.
Gaston-Louis-
Jason- "Ahn-hon-hon! You theenk you are cool?
"aw shit naw" You are ugly and stu-peed!"
He burrowed into his blankets to escape them sucky rays.
Jason- Gaston-Louis-
"Wasn't me, man! I swear!" "You zee 'ow goddamn
weak you are? Ha!"
Eli whined from within his blanket burrito
Jason-
"Man, we should just leave Gaston-Louis-
him alone. This sucks." "Hm. I am beginning to suzpect you kidz are
nothing but bo-ring. Are you boring, Zhason?"
Jason-
"Am I, Gaston-Louis? Am I? You're the one who picked me so maybe you're the boring
one. Boring people are drawn to other boring people. Maybe your losing your touch Gaston,
maybe you aren't the man you use to be. Maybe you're becoming weaker." Jason hoped
the slightly non sequitur insult would make him draw back. Either that would happen,
or Jason just made a huge mistake.
Jason- Gaston-Louis-
"Then again, I could be wrong...." "... ... ..."
Gaston-Louis-
"... ... ..."
Gaston-Louis-
"...Well then, sleep tight, little men."
Jason-
"the fuck..?"
Jason escaped from awkward town with a last apology to Eli and headed upstairs with zombie
steps. He muddled through the daysick to take a shower, , bleach and dye his hair back to blue.
He decided to save some effort by changing into the clothes he'd be wearing the following night.
After all that, he fought the grog for one last act, going back down to Eli's room, and slumping
against the door. Inadvisably, he lit a cigarette and he fell dead asleep while he waited...
Jason began to come to a weird sort of life - the condition of undeath to which he was not yet fully
accustomed. He felt ill at ease, realized he was slumped in the worst position, and straightened
a bit. At once he noticed his hair was slimy, looked at the strands in view, and saw they were dark
again. Apparently, he'd need to wait until after waking up at night to bleach his hair if he wanted
it to stay.
Ghost feet descended from the ceiling, and Angela appeared before him.
He wasn't exactly sure of how to handle her...presence.
Jason-
"Hell if I know. Eli got pissed at me, then Gaston-Louis... made it worse.
I wanted to talk to him but Gaston wanted to, like, punk him, so... that's
how I ended up right here. I don't see why he blames me for all that shit,
so I guess I'll just wait here until he comes out of his room?
I don't know, I'm not good at this kind of bullshit. I honestly don't even
know why I care what he thinks but apparently...I guess I do."
Jason-
"..." Well, okay?
Jason hurried to his room, to wash out the remnants of bleach and dye, and start over.
Angela moved along as well, and soon Eli couldn't hear anyone outside his room.
Eli finished putting himself together and hooked up with Jack, to play some video games
and hopefully bore Angela into non-molesting. Vitus came around to remind them about
a big party that night, and Jason showed up to say he had another engagement.
Vitus insisted the guys should go together, and Jason said he wouldn't be long - going
to see a movie with a dude. Vitus buzzed off, Jason apologized to Eli & Jack and thanked
them again for their help, and they said they'd pick him up after the theater for partyings.
THE END! for this chapter...

the Gaston-Louis breaking up his booty rest.
Jason-
He managed to whisper, "what is it?"
G-L-
"I am going eento Eli's room. You should come
'elp me to deach zees lesson. It will be fahn."
Jason's actions seemed to be dictated then not by
compassion, but by the cruel whims of a universe
designed for amusement of a passing reader.
Daysickness had him like,
Jason-
"whut?"
G-L-
"Zis lesson iz best as surbrize, so...
Maybe you zhost watch, mm?"
Jason-
"Uh... OK, whatever."
They stole into Eli's room, like the veriest of ninjae. Gaston-Louis gestured for Jason to stand

Eli-
"WHAAAAT?!"
He flopped around like an undead salmon.
Gaston-Louis-
Jason- "Ahn-hon-hon! You theenk you are cool?

Eli-
"Wow!! Fuuuuck you guys!!!"
He burrowed into his blankets to escape them sucky rays.
Jason- Gaston-Louis-
"Wasn't me, man! I swear!" "You zee 'ow goddamn

Eli whined from within his blanket burrito
Eli-
"Man just get outta here you fudgin' creeps!
Let a poor weak, stupeed boy sleep!"
Jason-
"Man, we should just leave Gaston-Louis-
him alone. This sucks." "Hm. I am beginning to suzpect you kidz are
nothing but bo-ring. Are you boring, Zhason?"
Eli-
"AUgh, for real tho, get out!"
Jason-
"Am I, Gaston-Louis? Am I? You're the one who picked me so maybe you're the boring
one. Boring people are drawn to other boring people. Maybe your losing your touch Gaston,

Ghost feet descended from the ceiling, and Angela appeared before him.
Jason was a bit shocked and frightened to see Angela.
Angela-
"Jason, dear... Whatever are you doing
in the hall? You seem as if you slept here."
He wasn't exactly sure of how to handle her...presence.
Jason-
"Hell if I know. Eli got pissed at me, then Gaston-Louis... made it worse.

I don't know, I'm not good at this kind of bullshit. I honestly don't even

In his room, Eli was beginning to stir, hearing voices.
He moved slowly to get dressed, hoping he wouldn't have to go
sprinting half-nude from spooky monsters...
Meanwhile,As Jason sorted himself out, he realized he needed to wash his hair quick
Angela-
"But of course. The stoicism of men, such a terrible burden
and yet one you must all bear. Must! Well, I shan't ply you
about your feelings, but you know that the one place men are
allowed to reveal their beautiful frailties is to women, yes?
You can tell me anything, I say. Your honor is safe in my
tender hands."
to avoid expelled dye and bleach from fucking up his clothes. It hung in
the darkened follicles like dew, both saturating and beading.
Jason-
"..." Well, okay?

Jason slightly laughed then went back to searching for the address to that Shadow Kingdom place.
"A kiss would be nice." He said teasingly." And just a forewarning I might be protective."
