My Vampire System (WN)-Chapter 186: Breaking free

"I have a question?" Vorden said. "How did you figure out what we were up to?"

Vorden was sure he had covered all their tracks with Fex. The last thing he wanted was to get caught, yet it happened anyway. If they had slipped up and this was how Fex was able to find out, then this meant others could find out about them in the same way as well.

Logan then walked over to Peter, who turned his head and gave him a dead eye stare. When Quinn noticed this he immediately intervened.

"Peter stop that!" For some reason, it felt natural and instinctive to Quinn to do this. It was like he was telling off a bad dog for growling at another person.

In the meantime, Logan had removed Peter's wristwatch and had made a few adjustments using his glove before handing it back to Peter, who put it back on.

Peter had become a lot less talkative, and at the same time, it seemed like he wasn't as timid before. It was causing a strange atmosphere in the room.

"Peter why don't you come stand over by my side," Quinn said, noticing how everyone was feeling.

Peter then walked over to where Quinn as, while constantly looking around the room, as if he was checking it out for any dangers.

"When you asked me to make adjustments to Peter's wristwatch, I planted a listening device inside. I felt like you were hiding something, so I thought this was the best course of action," Logan replied to Vorden's question.

After hearing this from Logan, Quinn felt like he had no right to be upset with him. He really was hiding things from him, and even now Quinn still hadn't told him everything, "It's okay, but Logan are we still friends?" Quinn asked.

"We're friends?" Logan replied with a confused look on his face.

"Of course, friends help each other out, and you've helped me more than ever," Quinn explained.

"Well, if that's the case this seems to be a one way friendship, since you haven't helped out with anything yet, at all!" Logan replied, bluntly.

Although Logan sounded rude, he wasn't. Logan had always been honest like this, and he wasn't really good with human feelings and emotions.

As the three boys were leaving Logan's room, Quinn stopped by the door, and pointed at the briefcase he had looked at before when he was with Logan. "You're right," Quinn said, "I really haven't helped you even when you helped me out so much. You know that briefcase I almost touched before, well my system says it was made by Richard Eno."

With that piece of information, Logan's thoughts were confirmed, he knew it.

"You are still my friend Quinn!" Logan shouted as the door shut behind them.

The biggest worry looming over their heads had finally disappeared, but that didn't mean they were completely in the clear. While Vorden and Peter were going back to their dorm room, Quinn decided he would go pay the girls a visit, and update them on the situation.

They both knew what the plan was for today, although Layla was happy to help, Erin didn't want to be anywhere near Fex. Vorden had strongly agreed with this as well. So Layla and Erin had agreed to stay out of it for the most part, and allowed the others to help Peter out.

Boys weren't allowed in the girl's dorm rooms, and although the military staff usually weren't very strict on this rule, it was currently night time and it would be curfew soon, so Quinn was a bit worried that anyone would see him. After he knocked on their door, he spoke through the door to confirm it was him, and the three of them then went for a walk down the hallway while Quinn explained everything that happened.

"So he won't have to eat humans anymore, and there is no need to get involved with that Fex kid again? Good!" Erin said.

After hearing everything that happened it seemed like they were able to solve Peter's problem with ease, and thanks to the dark market place if another ghoul was created they would be able to solve that problem a lot easier.

'Should I experiment with myself first before telling the others?' Layla thought. 'Just maybe…if I get strong enough, I can break free.'

Still, after Quinn had told them everything, Layla could tell that something else was on his mind.

"What's wrong is there another problem?" she asked.

Quinn then proceeded to tell them the situation with Duke, how for some reason, they desperately wanted Peter to learn the level four earth ability by the end of the week. The major problem was Peter didn't have an earth ability and he was too involved in all of it to cut ties.

"Wait, did you say by the end of this week, that's this Sunday right?" Layla asked.

"Yeah, that's what Peter told us," Quinn replied.

Layla was visibly shaken after she heard this news, but she forced her facial expression to remain neutral. The message she had received from one of the Pure agents, was Truedream would be coming at the end of the week. On the same day, by which they wanted Peter to learn the ability.

If the others found out Truedream was coming over, they wouldn't find it a big deal. For he had close ties to the military and would often visit the military bases. But Layla knew the truth.

One of Pure group's biggest targets was Truedream, he was the whole reason why the military was able to keep such a strong grip on everyone. Of course, the reason why he was coming was to take students abilities form them, to give them to his own men.

And Peter had been selected as one of the Targets.

After finishing their talk, the group decided to split up with each other and head for their own rooms for the night. When Quinn opened the door, he was surprised to see Vorden rushing over to him.

"Quinn, thank heavens your back!" Vorden said. "It's Peter, he's become a weirdo, and he's just standing above his bed, and he won't listen to anything I say. I was trying to relax, and listen to some music, but I can't with him just standing there staring. What the hell happened to him?"

Quinn started to laugh nervously, it looked like Peter had changed more than he thought. "Peter you can rest, why don't you lie on the bed."

Peter did as he was asked but when lying on the bed they noticed he didn't close his eyes.

"System what's up with him? " Quinn asked.

"Don't worry he just recently changed, you have to think of him as a new-born person, he will soon start to do things on his own more often but now that he is an undead, he will no longer require any sleep." The system replied.

Seeing this made Quinn a little upset, the old fragile scared Peter had completely disappeared and was no longer there. Even though Quinn had saved him, he wasn't sure if he really had, it seemed like Peter was an entirely different person now, and he didn't even know who he was looking at anymore.

***

Inside the girl's room, Layla was also having trouble sleeping, there were three days before Truedream would arrive on campus. Which meant she had three days to try and figure out a way how to tell the others what was going to happen to Peter, without revealing who she really was.
