Chapter 16
Kate's POV
I walked beside Ranger Gonzalez, dad and the professor were behind us
"I'm sorry about your partner, I knew his briefly, he was nice"
"Thank you" the ranger replied "up until now I thought Richie killed these girls up and down the country, but I think someone else made him do it"
"I believe that" I replied "Richie is a tortured soul"
He looked at me with a small smile "you see the best in anyone, but are you sure it's not because your with Richie?"
"I…to be honest…I don't think there is a me and Richie anymore"
Seth POV
I watched in horror as I watched my brother swallow a snake, my stomach turned and I held on to the wall, I was going to vomit.
"What the hell Richie" I gasped I leaned against the wall "this is a fucked up day"
"It's ok" he replied "she's been telling m…"
I waved him off "I'm sure I know what type of shit she's been saying Richie" sighing I ran a hand through my hair I was so sick of this shit "alright let's get on with it"
Just as we started to asend the stairs we heard a girl scream come from the end of the hallway. Kate.
Kate's POV
How the hell could this shave happened again?
I tried to loosen the grip of the robe as the professor was speaking
"Carlos wanted you here for a reason; your blood is so pure"
I remembered something Richie said when we first met 'you're so pure and light' I struggled and I felt my left hand loosen
"It's gonna satisfy the nine lords at least for now, long before they realize their precious Santanico is gone. You should be so proud"
"Fuck you" I spat "You crazy bastard let me go"
"I can understand why they call you Kate-cakes I just want to eat you up"
Fear ran through my spine, no way in hell was this creep touching me, he ran the blade across my top as I struggled against the rope, finally I managed to loosen my left hand and punch him in the mouth. He yelled in pain before quickly pinning me down I screamed loudly but thankfully he was pushed off me by…"Richie?"
"I knew you were a sick son of a bitch" Seth aimed the gun at the professor while Richie untied me, he wasn't wearing his glasses and he looked…different. More confidant. "But sacrificing her like that, stumps you down to a new low"
The professor chuckled before turning to Richie "well can't blame a guy for trying"
The ranger ran into the room an took in the scene he glared t Seth and Richie before his eyes found mine "You ok?" nodding I grabbed hold of Richie's arm. The ranger turned his attention to the professor who was still grinning "Richie didn't kill all those girls, it was you, you son of a bitch"
Richie moved us closer to Seth
"Only one way into Carnegie hall and that's practice, practice, practice" the two men fought until the ranger stabbed him.
(+)(+)
I hugged Seth close to me as I wiped away the excess blood from his mouth "You ok" his hand comforting me as he rubbed up and down my back
"I'm fine princess" kissing my cheek he pulled back "How about you"
I chuckled tirdly,"this has been a real shit day"
He chuckled and kissed my nose "I know princess, but remember, the beach"
Grinning I leaned against him Richie came from around the corner and looked at us
Richie's POV
I had lost her
My gut knew it and I couldn't blame her "We've gotta move"
Kate eyes met mine and she smiled softly I realized I made a mistake, this whole fucking thing with Santanico had been a mistake and I needed her to know that.
"Kate"
She looked up at me my brother standing close "Um…I'll give you a minute" Seth walked round the corner with the ranger who had been itching to stab me with that dagger.
"Richie"
Leaning down I kissed her lips, tasting strawberries and cinnamon she gasped and wrapped her hands around my hair, I wasn't losing her damn it I refused to lose her
"I fucked up" I mumbled against her pouty lips "I really fucked up and I'm sorry for the mistake I made, please can you forgive me" kissing her again I pinned her against the wall my hands enveloping her face and hers held my arms "please Katie"
Kate's POV
A rush of emotions surged through me, some was confusion the other relief Richie was still there and here he was, the same confused soul I saw sitting on the kitchen floor that day so long ago.
"There's nothing to forgive Richie"
I knew none of this was Richie's fault it was her Santanico and I hated her even more.

-Few Hours past-
I felt numb as I sat in the RV I tried to not look to the steering wheel where my dad would sing bible hums and I tried to forget how my brother loved his comic books as one lay carelessly in the messed up RV. When the ranger came out and told me Seth and Richie were alive I managed to breath out a sigh of relief but then the dread in my stomach started to sir again.
Neither brothers had stepped out of the bar and the sun was beginning to rise I watched the colours of orange and yellow mic into each other and couldn't help but give a little smile. A new day.
I gasped as the ground beneath me started to shake, opening the door I saw the Titty Twister begin to crack
No!
I prayed to god they would come out alive
Suddenly the door swung open and Seth walked out with a frown and pissed off look. That's when I realized Richie had stayed with her even though he had said it was a mistake he had stayed with her. I slowly walked to Seth who stood beside a shiny black sports car shrugging of his jacket he harshly threw it onto the back seat. His eyes connected to mine and he let outa relieved sigh
"Kate"
And then my emotions erupted my lower lip wobbled and he was at my side in an instant, enclosing his arms around me and kissing my forehead
"Shhhh it's ok, it's over now"
(_)(_)
I held on tight as Seth drove to Briannas uncle I told her my dad and brother had died in a car crash and I asked one last favour of her. Me and Seth would get a new life a life we deserved. We drove to the main runway of the airport and was greeted by an elderly gentleman wearing a pilots uniform.
"Good morning air, miss"
I smiled and made a mental note to thank god for the man not mentioning our bloody attire
"One way to Rio de janeiro?"
Seth looked shocked and I gave him a small smile which he returned and clasped my hand tightly in his
"That's right" Seth replied.
Meanwhile
Lord Malvado heard the news of Santancio escaping the titty twister from one of the underlings of Carlos.
The lord studied the pathetic excuse of a culebra
"But my lord Carlos said there is another like Santanico, someone who is pure"
The lord perked his ears and tlted his head "O?"
The vampire handed him a photograph and it took his breath away. This girl who was smiling innocently at the camera wearing a yellow sunflower dress was better than Santanico he could literally smell the purity from her smooth skin
"What is her name?"
The culebra replied "Kate Fuller"
