The last Dracs body hit the ground with a thud. I wiped the dirt and blood off my hands. 'Come on guys, time to light 'em. Next patrol will be here any minute.' Kobra Kid said. I took out a lighter from the supply bag, flicked it, and droppped it onto the bodies. We started walking back to the Trans Am. 'Hey Ghoul, how many?' I asked. (Fun ghoul and I had this competition to see who could kill more dracs)
'4. You?'
'Haha 6.'
'Shit!'
'That gives me 66 and you 64.'
'Maybe next time Ghoul.' Kobra Kid said. I jumped on Party's back and gave Kobra Kid and Jet-Star a high five.
We got into the Trans Am, me, Party and Kobra in the front and Ghoul and Jet in the backseat. I spread my legs across Kobra's lap 'Ugh Paronia!' (My name was Paranoia Destroya) and let my head rest against the cold window. Life was good. I imagined how we looked right now. The warm sun hitting the dashboard, me with my legs sprawled out and Kobra Kid whining about how Party always gets to drive. I opened my eyes and it was exactly what I had thought of. The perfect scene.
I reaached over and turned on the radio. It was the Bli news report. 'Breaking News, today, 13 Draculoids were murdered by ruthless Killjoys.'
We cheered and high fived each other.
'In other news, high ranked Draculoid Onyx Smith still hasn't been found yet. The search still continues for Bli's best soldier.'
I flicked the radio off angrily and everyone went quiet.
'Paranoia, are you okay?'
'It's fine.'
'No it isn't' Kobra Kid said.
'I just thought that they'd stop looking for me. I mean it's been a year.'
I sat up and put my head on Kobra's shoulder.
'It'll be okay Onyx.'
'God I hope so.'
We pulled in front of the Diner and got out. We walked into the Diner and put our guns on the counter. Missile Kid came running out of the back room and jumped up to hug me. 'Hey guys!' She said. 'Hey Missile, where's Dr. D?'
'He's in the back.'
We walked into his Radio Room and greeted us.
'Any news?' I asked.
'Bli's still looking for you.'
'We know that we heard the traffic report.'
'Oh. Okay.'
'Dr.D is there something that your not telling us?' Jet-Star asked.
He sighed heavily. 'Someone reported a sighting of someone who fit your profile. They almost found us today.'
'Oh shit! You mean they could have been following us all day?' Kobra said.
'It's possible.'
I sat down.
'It's not your fault Paranoia.'
'How the hell is it not?!' I screamed. 'They're looking for me, they're ALWAYS looking for me. Their not gonna stop are they? Someone's gonna get hurt, and it's gonna be MY fault.'
We heard a scream from upstairs.
'Guys, where's Ghoul?'
We grabbed our guns and ran up the stairs. We heard another scream that came from the bathroom.
Missile Kid was hiding behind me. 'Honey, go hide in the closet, don't come out until we say alright?'
She nodded. 'Okay go,'
'Ready?' I mouthed. 'Let's go'
We shoved open the door and saw Ghoul hiding beside the bed.
'Ghoul, what's wrong?
He pointedd towards the wall. 'S-s-pider!!'
I screamed and ran to hide with Ghoul.
Party rolled his eyes and threw it out the window.
'You guys have some serious problems.'
'Do not!'
I laughed.
'See? It's gonna be okay Onyx.'
I smiled. 'Maybe so.'

3 MILES AWAY FROM DINER
A Draculoid ran back to the van and jumped in. 'Any news?' One asked.
'It's Smith. I think we found her.'
'What do we do?'
'We find a way to bring her in.'
