towards whatever had been lurking in the dark.
    Then the sobbing started again, but this time it was more than sobbing, it was yelps of pain that I could hear.
    “Help me!” the voice came again, but this time it sounded cracked and broken – raw as if the person calling out were in agony.
    “Where are you?” I cried out, my voice sounding shrill from the fear that was creeping into it. “I can’t help you unless I know where you are!”
    “This way,” the voice called back, and again it had switched direction and was now coming from behind me again.
    Turning, I caught sight of that large shape again – but for just a moment longer this time. It was huge and bristled with hair. Then it was gone again, almost slinking into the darkness.
    With my legs feeling like lumps of lead, I headed towards it, my heart now feeling as if it might just explode inside my chest.
    “Hurry!” the pained voice called out, echoing all around me.
    Quickening my step, I headed back down the corridor, now feeling disorientated.
    “ Please!” the voice came again, but in the confines of the corridor, it was distorted, and I couldn’t tell if the voice were male or female.
    Heading towards it through the dark, the strips of wallpaper almost seemed to clutch at me, like clawing hands. Starting to run, I raced down the corridor, my hands stretched out in front of me. Ahead of me in the blackness, I could see a door. It looked old and warped in its frame.
    “ Help me!” the voice came again.
    Reaching the door, I pushed against it with my shoulder and it swung open on a set of rusty hinges. Flying into the room, and nearly losing my balance, the voice called out again.
    “ Help me!”
    Scanning the darkness, I could see a bed in the far corner of the room, and there was someone lying in it.
    “ Quickly!” the voice came again.
    Heading towards the bed, I could clearly make out the shape of…

Chapter Six
    …I woke to the sound of Murphy’s voice and the smell of pipe smoke. He was whispering. I then heard Potter speaking back to him. Then Murphy continued, “The situation is far worse than I first thought.”
    I kept my eyes closed, and lying perfectly still next to Luke, who still slept, I listened to their conversation.
    “How do you mean?” Potter asked in a hushed voice.
    “Those police officers that were chasing us…some of them are obviously Vampyrus,” Murphy said, his voice tinged with fear.
    “We’ve always known that our race has infiltrated positions of authority within human society,” Potter said emotionlessly. “After all, we’ve been masquerading as cops for years.’”
    “I know that,” Murphy almost seemed to snap at him. “But we were trying to live honest lives above ground – we weren’t eating one another.”
    “But what about Rom and Phillips?” Potter said. “They did their fair share of killing.”
    “That’s just my point. I thought that it was just them who had wormed their way into the police force, intent on using the power that the job gave,” Murphy sighed. “But it appears that many more Vampyrus have imbedded themselves into positions where they will be able to pave the way for…”
    “But who is he?” Potter asked.
    “That’s the million dollar question, Potter,” Murphy said. “If we knew the answer to that, then we wouldn’t be banished from The Hollows, chased across the length of the country, and hiding out in this godforsaken barn.”
    “But we don’t even get close,” Potter whispered. “The agents he sends after us are agents of agents. It’s like the one that we need to find is invisible.”
    “But whoever he maybe,” Murphy said, “I fear that his plans are far more advanced than we originally thought.”
