and make sure he has not made it here yet.”
     
      Mathias looked at Catherine and then at Mary one more time before leaving the trailer. He had grown so close to his granddaughter in such a short period of time that he could not bear to lose her. The memories of Jane came flooding back and he was certain he could not cope going through all of that again. This time he assured himself that Samuel would not only fail in trying to get Catherine but this time he would not escape again either. Mathias was determined to see Samuel dead.
     
      Mary and Catherine heard Mathias summon some nearby vampires and then the pattering of footsteps as they ran towards the trailer and stood outside of it on guard.
     
      “Joseph, glad you could get out. We have little time so we need to get to Catherine as soon as we can and take her. I need you to go back in and create some kind of distraction so she is left alone. That silly old fool Mary is on her way so we need to act before she gets there,” whispered Samuel, all the while looking around him to make sure none of Mathias’ community had got wind of his plans and had come out looking for him.
     
      Joseph looked at the floor not quite sure how to break the news to Samuel. After some initial thoughts, he finally raised his head to tell him.
     
      “She is there Samuel. Apparently she came dashing into Catherine’s trailer whilst Mathias was there. Mathias has run out to come and look for you. He has put guards around the trailer with Mary and Catherine inside.”
     
      Samuel’s rage was evident from not only the look on his face alone, but his punch to a large mountain side tree which uprooted it and sent it flying.
     
      The sound echoed around drawing unnecessary and unwanted attention.
     
      “Let’s go,” said Joseph and directed Samuel away from the immediate vicinity of the circus.
     
      “I am not leaving. I am taking her with me and soon,” said Samuel.
     
    “I know Samuel, don’t worry,” said Joseph. “I plan to keep my promise to help  you.
     
    All is not lost. Tonight is the final show. They will not cancel. However Mathias will need almost all of the performers which will mean the guards will be down on the trailer. There will be some but not as many now.  If we can wait until the late evening show begins we can sneak in. The place will be overcome with people so they will camouflage us and make it easier for us to slip inside. All the noise and chaos will work well in our favour. Now they have nothing to concentrate on except finding you.
     
    Tonight, they will be too busy to concentrate properly. Plus, they have no suspicion of me. I could guide you to the trailer and once there we can take her. We can do this Samuel.”
     
      Samuel was very glad of his friend’s loyalty and this reassured his decision to make him a leader in his new found community.
     
      “You are right my dear friend. I will hold back until this evening. When you see fit, come and collect me and we will make our way to the trailer.”
     
      Joseph nodded his agreement and led his friend out of sight.

      “Mathias, what on earth is the matter?” said Tobias laying his victim to the ground.
     
      “Tobias, I need you back. Is she finished?” asked Mathias pointing to the lifeless girl sprawled on the floor.
     
      “Yes,” said Tobias “But please tell me what on Earth is the matter. Is it Catherine? Is it the baby?”
     
    “It is Samuel. He visited Mary, having heard that Catherine has changed. He is looking for her and wants to take her with him. Mary managed to locate us amazingly to warn us. She feels he is not far behind, however. She also thinks we have a traitor amongst us. Someone who told Samuel that she had already changed and could possibly lead him this way,” flustered Mathias, trying to get as much information out as he could at once.
     
      Tobias shot up right and belted back towards the circus and the
