Chapter Two: The History / The Research

The first day of school was a bust none of the teachers seemed to pay attention to Mickey except to take attendance and none of the students even bothered to ask who was the strange name being called. By lunch Mickey was ready to go home until a kid came and sat next to him and with no hesitation told Mickey:

"You shouldn't be here"

"Umm hey?" Mickey said

"My name is Bon" he said

"I'm Mick, and Bon is a very interesting name"

"Well my parents were big AC/DC fans so yeah, and Mick is a very interesting choice too" He said.

"It's because my mom loves Mickey Mouse, but she's the only one who calls me Mickey"

"Seems like both of our parents set out to mess up our social lives" Bon said.

"Yeah I guess they did haha"

Mickey and Bon talked until the bell rang and walked to their 5th period class which they just happened to have together. Mickey sat in the back like he always does and Bon sat upfront because he had trouble seeing the board, the class was small but so was the whole school. When class ended Bon waited for Mickey outside the door, they didn't have 6th or 7th period together but they did have the last together. There last period was History and Bon seemed a little nervous but more so excited to be in, when asked about it Bon acted nonchalant to the fact he was just asked a question. By the end of class Mickey couldn't help but notice how Bon was so clearly aggravated, when they got up and left Mickey told Bon to wait up.

"Hey what's up with you ?, you seem so mad at the teacher. Mickey said.

"The whole class was bullshit, the year is started off with local history just to sell the lies they're telling us."

"What the hell are you talking about man ?" He said.

"I can't tell you here so how about we meet up after school at the abandoned church outside of town ?" Bon said.

"Alright sure man, whatever it takes for you to tell me what's going on".

They split up and didn't see each other again, Mickey was unsure about the abandoned Church so he had to ask his mom who seemed to know more about the town then the town did except for Bon. Mickey found out that the abandoned Church was 6 miles East from the welcome sign and so he headed out unaware of what he was about to learn about the place that had become his new home.

As Mickey was approaching the church that looked like it was straight out of a horror movie Bon ran out telling him to hurry up.

"Are you ready to tell me what's up with you ?" Mickey said.

"Yes but prepare yourself because it's a lot to take in"

"Alright, yeah sure" he said.

As Bon laid out the weird history behind the town it became harder and harder for Mickey to believe anything that was being said.

"VAMPIRES?, THE TOWN IS RAN BY CENTURIES OF VAMPIRES?"

"Will you keep it down please" Bon said. "I didn't believe it at first till this summer"

A few months before the summer vacation that brought the fresh faced Mickey to town Bon was the new kid, he had moved there with his mom, big brother and little sister. Bon's family settled in easily but quickly things would turn around, before the move Bon's brother Brian had done days and days of research reluctant to spill the beans Brian finally told Bon what was going on with the town and Bon ,just like Mickey was doing now, was doubtful of every word. After the move Bon and Brian were given a week to settle in and then it off to school but only one of them would make it there, one weekend Brian went out to explore the town and he never came back. Brian was found in the woods all of his skin had been found with teeth and scratch marks all over his body and all the blood in him completely drained. The cops claimed it was a copycat of a serial killer that was last active decades before Brian's death but Bon knew what happened Brian had found something big and was taken out for it. Once Mickey heard the story of Bon's brother Brian he no longer had any doubts, Bon gave Mickey a copy of everything Brian and Bon had found just incase anything happened to him and it was thicker than any textbook in their entire school. Mickey went home with all the research but not before being warned by Bon to not show anyone or even mention it's existence. Mickey went home with the thought nothing would come of this information but found himself wondering all night about it till he gave in and began to read everything from start to finish, when he reached the halfway mark he realized he hadn't slept all night and had an hour before he had to leave to go to school.
