We may have a problem

“Why are you making us do this?” Craig asked when the training session had finished. He, Jonathon and Katie had been having one of their extra sessions that JD had never explained.

JD looked at them thoughtfully, wondering whether to tell them the truth. He avoided lying to his students whenever possible, but sometimes there were things he couldn’t tell them and he was not sure if this was one of those things.

Eventually he decided to be honest. These were not just his students, they were his brother, sister-in-law and his wife’s best friend.

“Craig has been asked to become a trainer,” he said. He waited until Jonathon and Katie had finished congratulating him. It was a great honour.

“However,” he continued, “he has said not yet and I agree with him. Now is not the time for him to be leaving. I’ve also been asked about my opinion on you two.”

This comment surprised Jonathon and Katie, as their reactions showed. “I think you both have the ability to become trainers and, though it pains me to say it, you will also be good at it. But again, not yet. You need some more life experience behind you.”

“So why the extra lessons?” Jonathon asked.

“Because I’ve been given permission to start training you to be trainers. When you decide you are ready, you’ll have to go away for proper training, like I did, but by then you’ll have a good foundation so it will not take as long.”

Craig and Katie didn’t know what to say. Jonathon did. “Thank you.” No more words were needed. JD was giving up his own time to help them advance and all three appreciated it.

“This information cannot leave this room though. Nobody else can know. Doc does, and Sarah, obviously, but nobody else.”

The three students nodded their understanding. Then JD grinned at them. None of them liked that grin.

“Now that you know what’s going on we can start the proper training. Trust me, you are not going to enjoy this.”

A few weeks later, JD got a call from Patrick.

“We may have a problem,” the head scientist from Sanctuary 7 said. “Two hunters from Sanctuary 2 have just returned from a hunt with no memory of finding any vampires, yet they clearly have bites on their necks.”

“Leave it with me,” JD said. “I’ll sort this out.”

“You said they promised to leave us alone.”

“Don’t jump to conclusions. Let me make a call, then I’ll call you back.”

“What’s wrong?” Sarah asked as soon as JD hung up.

“Hunters have been attacked by greater vampires,” JD said.

“Luke wouldn’t lie to us.”

“I know. Let me find out what’s going on.” JD started to dial, but Sarah stopped him.

“We should go there and speak to him in person.”

JD agreed and went to find Scott to let him know his one-on-one training session was cancelled. Scott tried to look disappointed, but failed. JD worked all of his students hard so they were happy when they got an unexpected hour or two off.

JD didn’t tell anyone where he and Sarah were going, or why.
