Chapter Two

Mikey Way smiled to himself as he walked down the school corridor to his locker. He barely noticed that other students scrambled to get out the way of him. He was used to it, used to the way people fawned around him. He knew if he was human he would properly be bullied for his bookish ways and slightly nerdish look’s. He wasn’t human though he was a fertile vampire and no one in there right mind messed with a vampire.

Mikey always remembered a time when some new kid started, some jumped up jock didn’t know he was a vampire. In fact it was hard to tell a fertile from a human. They didn’t have fangs and Mikey knew to those not in the know he looked slightly ill to humans. The kid was showing off trying to be the big man on campus.

Mikey had seen him early pushing some kid about and thought nothing off it until lunch break when Mikey walked into the canteen. As always he was pretty much in his own world, you know just day dreaming when he bumped into this jock. He looked up and unlike most vampires said he was sorry when the jock just turned on him.

“You fucking shit.” He had spat grabbing Mikey by his shirt and pulling his fist back ready to punch Mikey. Mikey like most fertile’s was useless at fighting, and he the punch had knocked him to the floor, his nose bloody and he was aware the whole canteen had gone quite.

“God he just hit a vampire.” Someone choked out and Mikey took satisfaction by the way the jock’s face changed from a look of triumph to one of fear, and the look of fear want beyond that as his legs wore suddenly kicked from under him.

“You dare lay a finger on my brother.” Gerard spat putting a booted foot against the jock’s throat and pressing down slightly until the jock stared to choke slightly.

“Fuck he hit Mikey.” Bob swore pushing through the crowed that had gathered round the scean. Mikey could see Bob was furious hell Bob was almost as protective of Mikey as Gerard was.

“Yes he hit Mikey what do we do to scum who hurt Mikey Bob.”

“Why Gerard we make them pay don’t we.” Bob grinned sadistically.

“Yes we make them pay” Gerard said looking at the crowed before he met eye’s with Ryan Ross who was also a fertile.

“Ryan honey take Mikey to the nurse get him cleaned up while me and Bob take care of this trash.”
