Angel's POV:
Mike and I stood on the boardwalk. Mike was talking to a guy named Scott. I stared at the beach below. A song played and people cheered while dancing in the crowd. "They all sit and terrorize people on the boardwalk. It's ridiculous." Mike said. Scott huffed and a voice said "it's our specialty." I turned around to be met with a tall curly headed boy. "Go away." I said rudely. "Make me." He replied. Scott smirked and I said "why are you back?" "To take you on a ride." The boy replied. I rolled my eyes and said "fine. But you promise to bring me back here? Safely?" He nodded and held his arm out. "I'm gonna call you curly." I said as I began walking in front of him. He ran up next to me and said "you don't even wanna know my name?" "Why should I?" I said. Curly furrowed his eyebrows and said "at least tell me your name." "Angel. My name is Angel." He smirked and said "I'm Marko." I rolled my eyes and said "I didn't care to know your name." "But I told you anyway." He replied. He grabbed my hand, pulling me to his bike. Marko got on it and I hesitantly did the same. I wrapped my arms around his waist and he began to go down the boardwalk. He met up with three other guys, they surrounded a curly headed girl.

She looked at the four of them and then looked away. "Where you going Star?" The leader asked. "For a ride. This is Michael." She replied.

The boy who she was referring to, grabbed her hand before the leader stopped her. The leader turned around and looked at me. "We have two guests tonight boys." He said. "We have three actually." The brunette said. The other blonde laughed and Mary was on the back of his bike. Star got on the back of the leader's bike. "You know where Hudson's bluff is, over looking the point?" The leader asked. Michael scoffed and said "I can't beat your bike."

"You don't have to beat me, Michael. You just have to keep up." "We're going for a ride, man." The brunette said to the kid on the back of his motorcycle. I clung to Marko as he revved up his engine. The four boys rode down onto the beach, Michael following close behind. The wind blew through my hair and my grip around Marko's waist tightened and the boys cheered as they sped down the beach. I smiled at how crazy they acted. Marko yelled as we went faster. I giggled and Michael was behind us.

After riding down the beach, we headed into the woods. We went up and down hills, dodging tree branches and logs on the ground.

Say hello to the night
Lost in the shadows
Say hello to the night
Lost in the shadows
Lost in the loneliness
Lost in the shadows
No one knows
I can't wait, I can't wait, no
When I see little lights in the shadows
One must hide when the sun gets higher
I don't know what this madness means

We reached the top of a cliff. Marko stopped near the cliff and I looked down. "You good?" Marko asked. I nodded and said "yeah." Michael was on the ground, close to going off the cliff. He stared at the leader who just chuckled. "What the hell you doing, man?" Michael asked as he punched the leader in the face. "No!" Star said.

Marko, brunette and blonde, grabbed Michael from doing any further damage. "Come on. Just you. Just you." Michael said. "How far are you willing to go Michael?" The leader asked. "Why don't we introduce ourselves? I'm Paul." The blonde said as he stuck his hand out. I shook it and the brunette said "I'm Dwayne. And that's Laddie." The little boy waved and Mary stared at Dwayne. "And I'm David." The leader said while smirking. He got off his bike and began walking down the side of the cliff. Dwayne and Laddie followed, Mary close behind. Star sighed and went after David. Marko grabbed my arm and pulled me towards his direction. The next thing I knew we were in a cave. I looked around at it and David said "this was the hottest hotel in Santa Carla, but when the big one hit San Francisco, it was destroyed. So now it's ours." "Yeah. So check it out, Mikey." Paul said as he lit up a cigarette. "Marko, food." David said. Marko motioned for me to go over where Paul was. Marko then disappeared somewhere. Michael stared up at everything in awe. Mary sat next to Dwayne and Paul pulled me up onto the fountain. "Appetizer?" David asked as he held out a joint. Michael took it from him, inhaling on it. Paul quickly grabbed it from him and passed it to me. I took a small inhale, coughing as I did do. Paul chuckled at me and I rolled my eyes. I passed it to Dwayne and he inhaled a long breath on it. "Feeding time! Come and get it, boys." Marko said as he came in with a box of food. "Chinese. Good choice." David said. Marko handed me a box of noodles with chopsticks. I sat down on the fountain and began to eat. It was silent for a minute as we all ate. "How are those maggots?" David asked. I looked up and Michael said "huh?" "Maggots. You're eating maggots Michael, how do they taste?" Michael looked down at his food and spit it out. The guys laughed and I looked down at mine. Mine was ok. Marko put his hand on my shoulder and I sighed. David laughed and then got really serious.

Michael noticed that his rice was all over the floor. "Sorry about that." Michael muttered. "No hard feelings, huh? Why don't you try some noodles?" David asked as he held out his box of food. Michael looked down and said "they're worms." "What do you mean they're worms?" David said. Paul sniggered and Dwayne was trying not to laugh. "They're only noodles, Michael." Michael grabbed the box and stared at it in disbelief. "Nice worms." Paul said as he giggled. Star sighed and said "that's enough." "Ah, chill out girl." Dwayne said to her. David motioned to Marko and told him something in his ear. I continued to eat my noodles and Marko gave David a glass bottle, of what I was assuming was wine. Paul stared at it while David took a sip of it.

"Drink some of this Michael." David said. The tension in the room rose. Everyone was waiting on Michael to drink it. Marko stood over me, protectively. Michael took the bottle of wine from David and held it in his hands.

Marko picked at his food and Dwayne sat up as Michael looked at the bottle. "Michael. Michael. Michael. Michael." The boys chanted. Star stood behind him and she said "don't. You don't have too Michael." Michael looked like he was thinking about it. "It's blood." Star said. Michael scoffed and said "yeah. Right. Blood." Michael took a swig and David clapped for him. "Bravo!" Dwayne and Paul cheered while Marko smirked. I smiled and Mary cheered.

"Give me a ride, Marko." David said. Marko left my side and pushed David around the fountain. The boys stood up and jumped around the room. The atmosphere I was in right now, was something I've never been in before. It was different. I liked it. I was pretty stoned since I didn't usually smoke and just that little bit got me super high. Laddie and Star backed out of the room. "You're one of us, bud." Paul said as he patted Michael on the back. I stood on the fountain and watched these boys jump around the room. Marko hopped up on the fountain with me. "Hi." He said. I smiled and he grabbed me by my waist. I looked up at him through my lashes. Marko smashed his lips onto mine. I wasn't expecting the kiss so it was a little awkward at first. Marko led me to the couch as he pulled away. The two of us sat down while everyone was cheering. He kissed my jaw and then moved to my neck. I giggled and said "what're you doing?" Marko didn't answer, instead he sucked on my neck, gently biting down. Paul cheered him on as he went by. Dwayne and Mary were together and she had dranken some of the wine. Marko bit down harder on my neck, if I wasn't so stoned it would've hurt and I would've shoved him. "Ow." I mumbled. Marko looked at me and said "sorry." He licked over the hickey he was making on my neck. He pulled me up to my feet and played with my curly hair. I moved it over the hickey that he had just made. David looked over and smirked at the two of us. "Come on, boys." David said. Marko grabbed my hand and led me out to the bikes, where we were going to our next location.
