In all honesty, Lucas should have been in the cafeteria like everybody else, but he didn't really want to be there. The skinny little vampire wanted nothing else but to be left alone for the moment, after his scary encounter with Manny Taur that resulted in him being introduced to a garbage can.
He, of course, got cleaned up in the end, he really had no choice. Spend the rest of the school day smelling like someone's neglected sock? Highly disrespectful to the sock and liable for him to get bullied... again.
With a sigh he leaned against the lockers and slowly slid down so he was sitting on the floor, and he took out on his school notebooks.
He's hungry, and he knows that he is. His stomach even growls and his throat is a little dry for blood. But the cafeteria is where Manny Taur is, and everyone who had seen his wonderful meeting with the garbage can. The last thing Lucas wants is more bullying.
He opened his book and with a sigh, he begins to work on his Mad Science. He wanted someone to talk to, but his life hadn't exactly been happy for one hundred years.
... Not since Claus and his mother died and he became a vampire. Not since his father had lost his mind.

Gory came up toward the cafeteria with her friends. They were the top of the food chain as far as the vampires were concerned. She took one look down at him and paused in front of him, crossing her arms over her chest. She had the air of a spoiled princess. "Who did this to you?" While people like Cleo would've passed him by, he was a vampire, and Gory firmly stood by the belief that vampires took care of their own.

Lucas looked up in immediate alarm, seeing Gory Fangtell of all vampires standing before him. He had always found her beautiful, but to be honest, he knew that she was off limits... especially to a broken vampire much like him. He gulped before he finally decided to say something.
"Um... Manny Taur... 'mam," he said, his voice shaking somewhat horribly. He looked down at his notebook, noting the scribbled sunflowers that he had etched in the sides of his paper. He traced one with a finger.
They were always his mother's favourite flowers.

Gory looked down at him and let out a soft exhale, slowly going to her knees in front of him, softening her expression, "It's okay. Come with me. I'm not going to let him hurt you." In fact, she was thinking of just the opposite.

Lucas trembled. "Where... Where will we be g-going?" His voice was shaking, he didn't like it. Why was it shaking? He may have been scared, but he was trying to be brave this time. If his father ever found out about this...

"The cafeteria, sweetheart." She held out her hand, offering it to him like a child. "We're going to get you something to eat. And then we're going to teach that minotaur who he dare mess with."

Lucas hesitated, before he gently took her hand. "Is... Is that a good idea...? He might come after me tomorrow..." And that was the last thing that he wanted - more trouble with Manny Taur.

"Then you'll just have to spend tomorrow with me. Nobody is going to mess with a sweet little vampire on my watch."

He looked at her carefully. Was this what it was like to have a friend? Maybe, maybe not, he didn't really know. He looked down at his feet. "O-...Okay..."

She smiled and led him in, being warm and welcoming toward him but the moment she saw Manny Taur, her expression turned icy. Her eyes flashed a deep, dark burgundy and her fangs bared.

Lucas hesitated at the sight of Manny Taur, even trying to appear invisible by hiding slightly behind Gory, a slight, small whimper escaping him. He wished he was braver than this. He wished that he at least was stronger than he was. Sadly, however, he wasn't...

Gory glanced behind her and rested her hand on top of his head, "It's alright. Lucas, you're a vampire. You have superiority over all other monsters. Don't be afraid of a meathead like Manny. Especially not when you're with me." She proceeded to lightly stroke his hair, as if he were her child.

Lucas gulped, and imagined that, beside him, his late mother and brother were standing beside him, giving him their strength. He straightened just a little, but stayed behind Gory, never stepping past her. He'll try to be brave, he'll try to be strong, if just for her and if just for today. His pride right now that he felt would probably disappear when he got home, but that wasn't going to stop him from getting through today.
"Ri-Right..." he finally muttered to her. "... Above th-them. I'm a v-vampire. Su-superior."

She bought him lunch and brought him to a table filled with other vampires. Her arm draped over his shoulder and she lightly rubbed his back, "It's alright, dear. You're safe with us." She met eyes with every other vampire, making sure they understood that this was not a suggestion, this was a requirement.
