anyways, and there is still time to endure the pain of this curse until I can. So go on, tell me the vision old woman.”
                  “There remains one that can still lift the curse that has been placed upon you.”
                  Kreel’s head came up; he stared at the old woman, allowing what she had said to register within his mind.
                  “Oh, it will not be so easy. You will have to seek this person out, and this one person particular does not like your kind. You must follow what I tell you to the very exact word, otherwise there will be no hope for you. If not, there is no telling whether you will ever find another chance like this again. So you cannot end your life and walk out into the sunrise, unless you no longer have the will to try? You must live, in spite of the curse. Or you may die, the choice is yours to make.” said the old woman
                  Kreel shook his head. “I would do anything to be released from this curse. But how do you expect me to find this person when the sun will be up soon? This is the night of the full moon that you predicted. Will the curse still be lifted even after it passes?”
                  “You will find him in a place called Caterville, in a building called Jackson agency.” said the old woman
                  Kreel held her gaze, studied it. “Are you certain the words you give me are real?”
                  “I am.”
                  Sighing, Kreel turned to look at Charlie. “Ready for another adventure old friend?”
                  Old Charlie smiled and his eyes beamed as he nodded his head. Then Charlie had the look of surprise on his face as he lifted his hand and pointed to where the old woman and vampire had been.
                  Kreel turned to look but the old woman and her daughter were gone, as if they had just vanished into thin air. All that was left in their place were two vials of a purplish liquid with a note lying beside them. Kreel walked over to the spot and picked up the note and began reading the words scratched across the parchment.
                  Charlie came up behind Kreel to peer over his shoulder at the note. “What’s it say Kreel?”
                  “Well Charlie, the old woman wants us to drink this here liquid, she says it will buy us some extra time and prevent the curse from taking its hold on us completely. But she doesn’t say for how long.”
                  “Is that all it says Kreel?”
                  “No, it also says the name of the person we have to find.” Kreel couldn’t quite make out the first name. “I believe the person we have to go see is named…Nate Jackson.”
