Artemis was behind the school, asking Kaleb if he had been able to compel anyone and get the answers out of them when a girl walked up to them.
"OK, that's my cue!" said Artemis and started walking off. She heard Kaleb compel the girl. She quickly turned around to see Kaleb about to bite into the girl. "Woah Kaleb, what the hell" She exclaimed, as she did Hope walked up behind her.
"Let her go," Hope said roughly. Kaleb rolled his eyes and compelled the blonde girl to forget it and leave. She did.
"Great. Hope's already here," complained Lizzie to MG.
"Yay the gang's all here!" exclaimed Artemis, "What did y'all learn?" she asked, they ignored her.
"Thought we were cool, bruh," Kaleb said, obviously irritated that he got caught.
"Don't 'bruh' him. Second place or not, we know you killed Dana," retorts Lizzie. Artemis quickly looked between MG, Lizzie, and Kaleb.
"Wait, Dana's dead? angrily yells Hope.
"Dr. Saltzman said they found her dead from a vampire bite." calmly stated MG.
"I didn't kill her, so y'all need to get the hell outta my face," said Kaleb before speeding off. Lizzie automatically siphons from MG and gives Kaleb an aneurysm, making him stop running and start clutching his head, screaming in pain.
"Come on, guys. Let's go. It's hero time" says Lizzie, raising her eyebrows, a confident look on her face.
"To the blonde-mobile" Hope replayed, she looked obviously annoyed by Lizzie's antics.
"Not so fast, Kaleb," stated Lizzie, walking up to him.
"I told you, all I did was feed. Torture me all you want but my answer's gonna remain the same... because I didn't kill Dana." Replied Kaleb.
"Uh, he's right," interjects Landon, followed by Lizzie making one of her sassy remarks.
"What, so you're a mind reader now, Landon?" asks the blonde.
"Call it a hunch" he replies, without missing a beat.
"I'm not one to agree with Landon, but he's right, look" spoke up Artemis, pointing to the edge of the woods. Dana was crawling towards them. Everyone stood there, stunned.
As Dana continued to crawl, Artemis, Hope, and Mg ran over and helped her to a nearby bench.
'She looks like shit' thought Artemis.
"We were on the way to graffiti that mill at your school. It was a harmless prank, but then I got snatched. The next thing I remember, I woke up in a ditch, so enjoy it while you can, Lizzie. I'm sure I look like crap." harshly spoke Dana. The human girl went to scratch her neck when she felt something weird. "What is that!?" she questioned all panicked.
"Someone help me out here," said Hope with a panicked expression.
"It's the mother of all hickeys! You're fine, Dana. You're just a-a little slutty." quickly replied Lizzie. Dana scoffed.
"Liz, I don't think now is the time to slut-shame her." whisper yelled Artemis.
"I don't even like any of you. I should be talking to the cops." angrily replied Dana, standing up from her spot on the bench.
"I can't let you do that," said Landon, holding his hands up to stop her from storming off.
"Ad somnum" spoke Hope and Artemis. Dana collapsed.
"I mean, they can't let you do that," said Landon.
"So you didn't kill her, You freaking turned her?" yelled Lizzie.
