"Tommy," he said and walked over to his friends bed and noticed he was still asleep. He leant over the bed and shook him but he didn’t wake up.


"Tommy wake up," he shouted and his  best friend friend jerked awake. Tommy’s face grew hairier and and his eyes glowed; he wolfed out causing Merton to jump up in the air and land on the floor.


"Why do you always do that? I hate it when you do that," Merton said holding his hand to his chest near his heart.


"I’m sorry, I thought you was a vampire," Tommy replied concerned.


"Do I look like a vampire? I know I’m pale but still," he asked getting up from the floor.


"I had a bad dream," Tommy answered as he tried to calm down. A few seconds later his face returned to normal.


"About vampires?" Merton asked rhetorically, now on his feet.


"Yeah, what time is it anyway?" Tommy asked pushing back the covers and swung his feet around so that his feet were touching the floor next to the bed and was facing Merton.


"Eight O’clock," he answered.


"You’re walking me up at eight in the morning on a Saturday?"


"We have lots of research to do."


"I’m off back to sleep," Tommy said and laid back down in bed.


"Oh, no you’re not. You’re not leaving me to do all the research by myself," Merton orded.


"You know I hate reading and it’s too early in the morning. Can’t we do it later?"


"Tommy there is a group of vampires on campus and we don’t know why or who they are. Also to remind you they tried making me their snack last night," Merton said.


"Well they can’t attack you or anyone until tonight can they?"


"We need to be ready,"


"Alright I’m getting up," Tommy sighed and sat back up.


Both of them began to get ready before they set off to the college library.





In the library there weren’t many students due to it being the weekend and early morning but there was the odd few. About three people were there other than Tommy and Merton, plus the librarian. A blonde girlgir with glasses and a brown haired boy where sat in some chairs reading. The other students was another boy and he was typing away on a computer.


Merton walked towards the desk and Tommy followed. "Where are you going?" Tommy wondered.


"To ask for the computer password," he answered and Tommy nodded.


"Hi, we would like to use a computer please. Can we have the computer password?" Merton asked the librarian when they reached the desk. He was a young man not much older than the friends themselfs. Maybe in his early twenties.


"Sure," he replied and then picked up a small piece of paper. Then he handed it to Merton. "Here you go."


"Thank you," Merton said taking it from him and then he turned around. Tommy was looking around the library but not at anything in particular.


"I can’t believe I am in a library on a Saturday morning. I’ve only ever been in one library in  my life and it made me never want to set foot in one again," Tommy pointed out turning to face Merton.


"That was a mobile library, this is a stationary one so there’s nothing to worry about. Nothing scary happened when I’ve been to one," Merton told him.


"I wouldn’t be too sure," Tommy said.


"Come on let’s go to the computers , I have the password," Merton said taping his friend on the shoulder and then started walking. Tommy followed him.


They say down at one of the computes. Merton sat in front of it and began to type in the password as Tommy pulled up a seat next to him.


"What are we searching for exactly?" Tommy asked quietly as he sat down.


" Well when they attacked me last night they said something about who they are," Merton replied.


"What did they say?"


"I can’t remember," Merton replied.


"You can’t remember?" Tommy shouted. "If you can’t remember how will we find out anything?" He added more quietly this time. He didn’t want them to get in trouble for making noise.


"Well they did try to drink my blood and I was scared," Merton told him.


"Try to remember," Tommy said.


"Alright, I’m trying." Merton sat back in his chair and tried to remember.


"Yes, that’s it. I remember now," he said as soon as he remembered. He used the computer mouse and connected to the internet. Then typed in the name Reece told him last night-


The Diluculums.


It took quite awhile until he found anything and as he searched Tommy just looked at the computer quitely until he finally spoke up.


"Found anything?" He wondered.


"That’s not good; it’s far from it," Merton said to him self and then answered his friends question.


"Yeah, and it looks like we’re doomed."
