The Resistance

Chapter Six: 7 Minutes in Heaven

So that’s the Resistance, Pete thought to himself. It’s a group working against William? Finally. This was a way to get back at that bastard.
“So... you’re the leader of the Resistance Donnie? Let me into it, I’ll do anything I can to bring William down, anything.” Pete directed this toward Donnie, who nodded.
“You’re with us then? The Resistance, you want to be one of us? You don’t work for William?”
“No! I’m not working with fucking William. That bastard- attacking Chicago- and he changed me- and who knows what he’s done with my friends. No, I’d die before working with that scum.”
Donnie nodded again and stood up. Pete noticed for the first time that there were no chains attached to his ankles. “I’m sorry we kept you down here for so long Pete, but we had to be
sure you were against William.” Pete was confused; and stared with wide eyes as the stone wall between him and Donnie slid away upon a wave of Donnie’s hand. “What? W-what? How did you do that?”
“Welcome to the Resistance Pete.” Donnie answered vaguely, gesturing with a sweep of his arm to the wall behind Pete, which was, like the wall separating their cells sliding sideways,
revealing four men, two of whom Pete was very familiar with. “Joe! Andy! You guys are safe, But where are we? I thought those police officers worked for William…?” Pete pointed toward the
other two men, who were the police officers that had brought him into the prison cell. One of the officers stepped forward and Pete hissed.
“Calm down! Sorry we were so rough back there, but we had to be convincing man, William
thinks we work for him. But we only take orders from Donnie here; have for years. Ain’t that right Donnie?” Donnie nodded and introduced the two Policemen; “Pete these are the Resistance’s
top spies, Bobby;” The younger of the two men took a step forward and smiled, showing off a short and pointed set of fangs. “And my second in command; Adam.” The officer who had spoken
before gave Pete a small salute and grinned. “The Resistance has one more Top spy, and we wish he could be here to meet you but currently Damien is--” Donnie cut Adam off with a cough “Pete
doesn’t need to hear about Damien right now Adam, he’ll meet Damien when he gets back from his mission. Now Pete, you are in the Resistance’s headquarters, safe from William for now and
bringing hope to our members. You’re a legend in Chicago, the most powerful vampire of all some say, and the fact that William was not able to capture you is a ray of light and motivation for
many of us.”
Pete smiled, confident now that he knew where he was and who he was with. Plus Andy and Joe where safe, everything would be fine once William was defeated, and he would be defeat-
“Patrick.” Pete whispered; finally noticing the absence of his best friend. “Patrick?” Pete watched with horror as Adam’s smile melted, Bobby stepped back, and Donnie sighed… “PATRICK!
Where the hell is he? He’s here right? You got him too, he’s safe?" Andy and Joe walked up to
Pete, standing beside him and facing Donnie and the others “They won’t tell us Pete, we’ve been asking about both you and Patrick for hours and they wouldn’t answer, Bobby just now told us
about you being here.” Joe whispered into Pete’s ear and Andy nodded.
Pete snarled and walked up to Donnie, taking fistfuls of his shirt into his hands and pulling him close. “TELL ME WHERE PATRICK IS! Has he been hurt? Is he sick, has he- was he- is he- D-D-De….” Donnie sighed and looked at Pete, “Patrick isn’t dead Pete, not yet. We couldn’t take him; it was hard enough to bring you here without William noticing, but Patrick too? It would have been impossible, his reputation is known around the country as the best vampire hunter this world has seen; and the best weapon maker.
William was looking for him, and there wasn’t time…and Pete we think the Patrick has been, well he may have been…. Changed. He’s one of us now Pete.”
“No….” Pete let go of Donnie’s shirt and slid to the floor, kneeling and punching the cement, bruising his knuckles. “NO” he screamed, punching the floor again… Not Patrick, anyone but him “I swore I would protect him from this life, I swore! I told him that I would never let him feel the pain I have felt, I promised he would never feel the change, I didn’t want him to suffer as I have! I would rather have seen him die… then the pain would be over. But now.... Patrick is a vampire and I wasn’t even there to comfort him, to listen to his pain, he was alone.” “HE WAS ALONE!” Pete screamed this out loud and started to cry, he had failed his best friend. Donnie knelt next to Pete and put a hand on his shoulder.
"We know where he is Pete, we can save him." Pete looked up to Donnie, unshed tears swimming in his eyes.
“Tell me where he is. I need to find him.”
“William has him, but Pete we’ve got a spy keeping an eye on him. One of our best, Damien has sworn to keep him safe, and will tell us if any real harm is to come to Patrick. But we don’t
think that William will do anything to hurt him, he wants him for his own, to hunt down his enemies, to create weapons, he’s going to try and use Patrick.”
“So Patrick is with William, alone with William? That doesn’t work for me. I’m going to get him, now. Tell me where he is!’
“ No, Pete I told you, we have one of our best keeping close to Patrick, making sure he is safe, if William even thinks of harming him, Damien will warn us, do you understand?” Pete nodded; unhappy and impatient, and Donnie continued to speak. “We are going to get Patrick back, but we need to be careful about it, and we need to do it slowly and intelligently. We do not want our cover blown, and we do not want our location to be discovered. Now be patient and come see the rest of the Resistance.”
