Chapter 242: 239. Rise of the blood moon
...
"So it\'s like that..." Henry nodded.
They were all in the secret laboratory, where there was the little fox boy who stood amongst them.
"Yeah, that\'s how it has been," Tracy said as she looked down. She still felt uncomfortable with talking about her past with them but then they\'ve already been through a lot.
"I think it\'s a little bit crazy that everyone connected to Dexter has more than an ordinary background," The little fox said and they all smiled as that was indeed true.
"The blood moon is going to rise in a week. So I\'m going to tell you everything I know about it," Kila said and then they all paid attention.
...
On a bridge which connected two sides of a city, a man sat while looking at the bright half moon in the sky.
The man had long white hair and his eyes were a very deep red. His pointed nose and his pale, flawless skin made him seem otherworldly.
A woman appeared behind him, seemingly emerging from the shadows.
The beautiful woman who was dressed in a black maid outfit only stood behind the man silently.
"What do you think he will be like this time? Natasha," The man asked with a smile on his face.
"He seems like a person who cares a lot about family, which is very weird considering that his past reincarnations were very dangerous people," Natasha, the maid, said and then the man chuckled.
"The blood moon is already upon us. We can\'t let the other covens best us this time. This time... For sure, I would claim the inheritance." The man\'s eyes flashed with a red light and the maid said nothing but just stood by his side.
...
The witches too made preparations as the blood moon came. Asher, the leader of the astral dreamweavers, who was in a chamber studying suddenly saw the image of the world on fire and he frowned as he stood up.
\'Not these visions again.\' he held his head which hurt and then he left the chamber to see other coven leaders at his place.
"Huh? When did you all get here?" Asher asked in a calm tone. They normally like vanishing into his home, no biggie, just always wear clothes.
"Oh, it\'s been a while. We need to make preparations for the blood moon," Barn said and then Asher smiled as he looked at Veneta and Carina.
"Where\'s Lisa?" He asked as he looked around and then they all shook their head.
"She went to find her daughter a while ago. Maybe she\'s still busy," The Blondie Carina said and then they proceeded with the meeting.
"You had a vision?" Veneta asked and then Asher frowned at her.
"I heard you gasp in the room. Is something wrong?" She asked again and then he looked down.
"I saw it again. The boy burning everyrhing in rage," He said and then they all frowned at his words.
"We have to be prepared?" Carina asked tiredly before they continued discussing.
And it was not just the witches were preparing for this event, but also the other vampire covens that existed.
...
Five days later.
Dexter stood on the fence of his camp as he looked onwards. Victor jumped to meet with him and then he sat on the fence.
"So we\'re going to have to fight these people for no reason huh..." He said and Dexter sighed tiredly as he sat down too.
"It\'s said that there\'s a treasure which can make a normal vampire the king but one has to find the king\'s chambers in the vampire castle," Dexter said and Victor nodded.
"And since it\'s a mistake, none of us are escaping this." Victor couldn\'t help but be a bit sad as he looked back.
"Some of us are going to die..."
"Yeah." Dexter confirmed and then he reasoned the fact that he had never actually fought a real vampire before, so he wouldn\'t know how it would be.
The day of the blood moon finally arrived and Dexter couldn\'t shake off the feeling of nervousness.
"It\'s alright, we\'re all here," Kila said with a smile and then he looked at Hannah again.
"You won\'t be able to come. You too, Tracy, and Henry..." Dexter said as he looked at them and then he sighed as they looked up andthen they witnessed the full moon turn red.
Dexter kissed Hannah and then he suddenly vanished turning into specks of dust, along with the camp members and any vampire on sight.
Hannah looked around. Tracy, Herself, Henry, and the little fox boy was left behind.
"Put the camp on lockdown..." Hannah said and the boy brought out a remote from his pocket and tapped it.

Immediately, a blue transparent barrier appeared around the camp fences and they all went inside to wait an entire week.
Dexter suddenly appeared inside a large compound and he looked around to see more than 600 people around him.
Lily, Kila, even Alexander and Brian was here.
\'Hm... I don\'t regret it. At least now they won\'t be able to harm me.\' Dexter thought as he gazed at them.
Turning both of them was something he had to do unless they would go back to the one who made them... Lucian.
He looked around to see that they were in a castle and then he looked behind him at all of the people.
"We should be on the island by now. This should be our residence for now." Dexter said and all the vampires heard him and they all settled down.
He looked around to see that the ashen walls of the place made it seem like they were in some type of medieval dungeon.
He went and opened the doors to see the large red moon bathing the entire island with light. He looked ahead to see that the building they resided in was in front of a silent forest.
Dexter sighed as he steeled his resolve.
\'Lets do this.\'
