#14: The End

  Trick was very very shocked. Not Natalie or me. We never liked Sandy, after all.
  "I warned you all not to meddle." Sandy said coldly, eyes unblinking.
  I glanced at her with pure hatred. So, tis' her real form: A vixen. No wonder she's so popular, huh? She's my enemy from the very start... Erm, not really, I myself was once fooled by her.
  Anger and determination rose in me. I will never NEVER ever die in her hands, that is, paws! I said to myself.
  So, what now? My watch caught my eye. 11.40p.m. , it read. 20 more minutes. 20 more minutes to midnight, 20 more minutes to the lunar eclipse, 20 more minutes and there'll be an hour when Sandy couldn't do a thing. I have to push her along. Just for 20 more minutes. But to keep the vixen I so much hated engrossed in conversation for 20 minutes, can I really suceed? I glanced at Trick. He was stuck to the spot. Males! One can never depend on them. If only he can be used. Since he liked it, chatting with her should just be a cup of tea. Hang on. Chat. That wouldn't be any use, would it? I need to say something interesting to that vixen.
  Sandy was already mummuring some spell. In fox language. To kill us, I suppose. I have to act fast.
  "Ooo. You want to kill us, ya? Fox?" My first thought was to be myself, to tell her what I think of her, em, it, for these six years.
  It turned. Stopped chanting. Good. "So?" It stared into my eyes.
  I felt lost, all of a sudden. Suddenly, Natalie pinched me! "Careful! She can mesmorize people."
  Ah. Good old Nat. I struggled to keep my thoughts together. Sandy frowned at Natalie.
  "So I thought you were popular. I see now it's all just magic. I should've known no boy would like your fur." I continued insulting it.
  "Silence! You are just a mortal. Jealous?" It lost self control for a while.
  "Ya ya. Mortal me."
  "Us." Natalie intoned. "Tell us, dare you? How do you live, eat and so on? Come on, you yourself aren't immortal. That maybe your goal, but I'll bet you my life you'll never succeed." She smirked. Apparently she got what I was onto. Man, she's even better than me.
  "Oh, I suppose I'll let you die knowledgable." Sandy had fallen into our trap, if you can call it that. "
  Ten minutes.
  "I am not immortal, but I do live longer. And I can't be injured easily of course. There's only one way to kill me: Thunder. Hahahahahaha!"
  Thunder. I exchanged a glance with Nat. The stupid vixen had said it herself. But how.....?
  "I eat...... meat, of course! How? By luring men. Or women. Anything. You know, transport them to the world. You've been close. I was too soft-hearted. I shouldn't be. You see, Trick was my lover in his last life. A fox too. But he died young. Why? Ah, that was the reason I came to this world."
  "I didn't came here to feast. I came for revenge. But you all, you have to meddle, of course! What I was doing isn't wrong at all, by all means! The only one I hurted, killed, in fact, was the one who killed my lover. He's a vampire. Vampires and foxes, we've been enemies for centuries. Ever since the middle ages. We foxes are relatives of werewolves, for your information." Talking of her lover, Sandy actually shed tears.
  Midnight! Total eclipse! Sandy is now powerless. It realised that too, and gasped. "I can't win you two mortals in school. Perhaps it's destined for me to die at your hands, since I told she myself the only way to kill me."
  I combined powers with Nat. Together we did our best to summon thunder. 
  
  I dunno whether it killed Sandy or not. I remembered pulling Trick out as the cave collapsed, hit by thunder. I remembered running along the river, back to our camp.
 
  The second day we went home. All the campers, except for two supernatural ones. So Mr. Vampire was really a vampire, Sandy a vixen. Who would've guessed?

<the end.>
