Chapter 07: Where for out thou brother

Texas 1895, July

(Major’s POV)

It’s been almost a year since Peter left with a promise to return. I don’t know how much longer I can deal with this shit. The war whore has been ridin my ass day in and day out. One day is much like the next. The newborns know no different. They fight, feed and fuck. Not necessarily in that order either.

Returning back to base the other night after a semi vicious battle, not for me but for them, I could of swore I saw Peter lurkin in the tree line just out of range of camp. When I got over there he was nowhere to be seen. No tracks, no scent, nothing. But with Peter I didn’t really expect there to be either the sneaky fucker. Walkin back to my tent I heard the war whore in the throws of passion..GAG.. Who would touch that nasty bitch with anything but a torch is beyond me. God I can’t wait to get out of here. If I knew where Peter was stayin I would just take off now and go to him, but of course the prick bastard has no scent so I can’t follow it. Charlotte has one but the trail has long since gone cold, and I would have picked it up if she came back with Peter. Damn him and his scentless ass for leavin me here so long. I laid on my blanket in the tent for several hours listen to the sounds around me. To tell you I was lonely would be an understatement of the year. Would I allow myself to defile some young newborn girl, No. I was savin my junk for my mate. Who or where she may be, who the hell knows. Well Peter that smug bastard might. Damn it. There I go again. I know the rat bastard is planning sumthin I can feel it. What I don’t know, but he is up to sumthin.

“MAJOR!”

Oh great what the hell does she want now. Time to play lapdog.

“Yes Mistress?”

“What the Hell is goin on out here?” she asked.

I looked around quickly to see what she was talkin bout without takin my sight off her completely. Damn that was quick. Most of the newborns were in pieces all over the compound.

“Huh well I don’t know. It’s not like this is sumthin new. Hell they do this all the time.”

“No this was to quiet Major”

I thought about what she was sayin and she was right I didn’t hear a damn thing. I wouldn’t have known anything was wrong if she wouldn’t have yelled out to me.

“Well I didn’t see or feel anyone enter the compound Mistress. And there have been no new or strange scents lurking round either. I run the perimeter every so often.”

“Well then Major I suggest you do so again and find out who did this.”

“Yes ma’am!” I said with as much sarcasm as I could muster with out it bein to noticeable. Then I saluted her and left for the perimeter.

I couldn’t feel or smell anyone. Just as I thought. No one entered the compound. At least not that I was telling her about. I ran to the back of the compound. It was far enough that no one would see or hear me.

“Peter you sneaky bastard come out here.”

“Major.”

“What the hell were you thinking enterin the compound with the psycho bitch still present and accounted for?”

“Just getting started Major. I think it high time for your military retirement, don’t you?”

“Oh hell yeah. I think it is long over due actually. Where has your slippery ass been hidin anyway?”

“Well Major to be honest with you, Char and I went home.”

“YOU WHAT?” I growled at him.

“Now Major don’t get your girly knickers all in a twist. We didn’t go straight home.”

“Then what in the hell have you been doin for almost a year Peter?”

“Well first we traveled for a while. We didn’t head home till Christmas. We only planned on droppin off a gift for my baby sister, but she was comin home and spotted us. Then she fainted in the road when she realized it was me and Char. I couldn’t just leave her in the middle of the street Major, if my mama was alive she would have wholluped me for even thinking it.”

“Hell Peter I would of ripped you up myself for mistreatin a lady.”

“Thanks Major for the vote of confidence.”

“Welcome.”

“Damn where was I? oh right she caught us and fainted then we took her in the house and sat with her till she woke up. Then we got into a fight on whether I was real or a dream, then we gave her the gift we were there to drop for her, and she chased me off to get cleaned up before dinner.”

“Gross, you ate human food.”

“No Major I did not. Her and my brother and his fiancé did. Char and I went and found some lunch in a few towns over. It would just feel wrong eatin people we grew up with.”

“Huh.”

“What is it Major?”

“I just didn’t know you had siblings. I remember my family. I had two little sisters who would follow me everywhere. I haven’t thought about them in years, well decades really.”

“Who’d a thunk, the big bad Major has ankle bitin siblings.” he chuckled.

“Watch it Peter.”

“Yeah yeah, gggrrr to you too.” Now it was my turn to laugh. Peter knew very well he couldn’t take me.

“So did you tell them what we are and about what you have done?”

“Well Arabella knows everything. That little snoop wouldn’t let it go till I told her everything. I found out long ago that you can’t lie to her. It’s like she knows. And Emmett well he only got the cliff notes version. You know ‘I’m the living dead, but I won’t hurt you’ deal.”

“Good the less people who know the better, less casualties that way.”

“Major I will not allow harm to come to my family.”

He was getting pissed I could feel it.

“Better watch who your growlin at boy.”

“Sorry Major.”

“Damn straight your sorry, now enough of this mushy sit, how bout we get to getting my ass outta here.”

“Alright Major. You know what you need to do.”

“Yeah keep the war whore occupied. Hell I might even sedate the bitch.”

“You do what you think is necessary and leave me to my plans.”

“Shit now I’m worried.” I chuckled as I headed back around the front of the compound where the bitch was awaitin her report.

“Nothin unusual anywhere.”

“Good now I do not wish to be disturbed. And put those idiots back together. I am in no mood to have to make more slaves right now.”

“Yes Mistress.” I bowed slightly as she left. If only she knew that I would neither be puttin them back together or would I be here when she came out again.

Maria’s compound 1895, July

(Peter’s POV)

I rendezvoused with the Major near the perimeter of the compound. I knew he would know it was me, who did the damage. Hell he was the one who taught me to tear them apart without makin a sound. I listened as she ordered him to put them back together. Yeah like that’ll happen. Pfft.. So with half of them disabled and a majority of them still starved I knew just how to distract them. I picked up good old bob and friends. (not their real names) I decided to bring them some fast food. I woke them up after leaping over the back wall with them. Watchin closely as Major was throwin the others parts into miscellaneous fire pits here and there so as not to make to much of a noticeable smell. Damn I knew he was good. I didn’t even tell him my plan and he just improvises right along. Hell this might be easier then I thought. Soon I put my plan into action.

“Sorry about this fella’s but it’s for a good cause.” I said as I used my nails to cut slits in their clothing and skin on their backs. That whole wrist thing was so outdated.

“Now Run.”

They turned to look at me and I must have looked rather scary cause they fuckin bolted into the camp. Soon enough I could hear the snarls and growls come from the various newborns that were still in one piece. Then just as planned all hell broke lose. The blood sacks were runnin all over scared shitless, the newborns were runnin after’em and scarin them more, Maria came stormin out of her hut like she was queen shit or sumthin demanding to know what was goin on. All at once it was like a train wreck you couldn’t take your eyes from. The meals to go ran toward Maria, newborns hot on their tails couldn’t stop they were fixated on the kill. The Major was headin toward me laughin his ass off. He was dose’em up with fear and adrenaline to keep them goin. Oh it’s a good thing we was leavin, cause hell bitch was lookin at him like she could sear his flesh off his body with just her eyes. Just as we jumped the wall I heard the unmistakable sound of vampire flesh colliding and rippin apart. Who knew whose was whose and I really didn’t give a damn. I made the Major run in front for a while, my scentless ass would cover our tracks. Soon we slowed sown and the Major started askin questions.

“So what took you so long to come back?”

“Well I was helping my sister to run her business.”

“She runs a business. That is uncommon in these parts.”

“Yeah well you tell her that and she is liable to find a way to torch your ass.”

“So what is your family like?”

“Well Emmett is protective and strong. But has always been the family jokester.”

“Huh I would of figured you to be the trouble maker.”

“OH don’t you go rulin me out just yet Major. I was the original trouble maker I taught him everything he knows.”

“Oh I believe you Peter. Now tell me more about your feisty spitfire sister I’m gonna have to watch my ass with.”

I laughed. Boy did he peg her.

“Well you know how Char is right?”

“Yeah”

“Well times her by 5 and you get the spitfire that is Arabella.”

“Damn I bet she kept your ass in line.”

“You have no idea. Hell she reamed both me and Emmett out about our manners on Christmas day.”

“Already knowin you’re a vamp?”

“Yeah she ain’t scared of nothing.”

“Can’t wait to meet her.”

“Oh Char can’t wait for ya’ll to meet either.”

“Why is that?”

“Well we kinda have a bet goin Major. So you better pull through for me.”

“What are the stakes?”

“Well if she wins I have to be her slave for a month, if I win then I get whatever I want.”

“Huh that is loaded isn’t it.”

“Yes sir. But you know my Char.”

“Yeah I do. I have a feelin your gonna lose this one Peter.”

“Thanks so much. I’m glad I ain’t telling you what the bet was.”

“Oh and why not?”

“Cause I like my body parts right where they sit thanx.”

“Awe I see you bet on an outcome concernin me then.”

“Damn. I’m supposed to be the know it all.”

He chuckled and started runnin again.
