This is the prologue for the sequel to Andrea Jackson and the Major. I am currently working on the next chapter. I hope you enjoy.
Jasper wiped the black blood from his lips. His golden eyes flashed around the clearing. All that remained of the two dracanae were piles of golden dust. Jasper stood and brushed the dust from his shirt. He had fed. He could return to camp now. He turned and ran, the wind rushing past him. It took only a matter of seconds to reach Camp Half-Blood. Another second to be in front of Cabin Three. And that was where the problems started.
Jasper took in a deep breath. Andrea's scent was everywhere. But something was wrong. Her scent was hours old. That couldn't be right. Jasper had left her here when he had gone to hunt. He had been gone three hours, and there was no trail leading away from the cabin.
Jasper didn't bother knocking. He burst into the cabin and stared in shock at Andy's empty bed. This wasn't good. This was so not good. The only thing comforting Jasper was the slight flutter he felt on Andy's side of the bond that let him know she was still alive. It was quiet, but her heart was still beating. Jasper ran out of the cabin into the Big House, moving to knock loudly on Chiron's door.
The old centaur had recovered well from his injury in the Titan War and was walking perfectly fine. He opened the door only to be met with a frantic vampire.
"Andy's gone." It was the first time Jasper had said it aloud, and the words made his dead heart shudder. "She just vanished!"
"Are you sure?" Chiron asked seriously, any trace of geniality he may have had on his face completely gone.
"Yes!" Jasper nearly yelled. "Her scent is old, and there's nothing leading away. Someone took her!"
"Alright," Chiron said calmly, resting a hand on Jasper's shoulder. "We'll find her." Chiron grabbed a cellphone and tossed it to Jasper. "Use that to call any vampires you think could help. I'll get in touch with some older demigods on the outside. I'm sure they'll help look.
Jasper nodded. He flipped the phone open and turned it on. He dialed Peter first. His half brother and childe would be the first to know. He called the Cullens next, then Demetri. The tracker vampire and he had been friends for a long while. Since the war against the Romans where Demetri and Felix and escorted two vampire children of Hecate to aid the Greeks.
With all his calls made, Jasper turned the phone off and made his way back to Cabin Three. He lied down in Andy's bed and buried his face in her pillow, inhaling her scent. He would start looking for her at dawn.
