Panel 1: Exterior view of David's flat at night, Lit by a Victorian street lamp. David is silhouetted in the upstairs window of the old building, working on his laptop.
SFX: TAP TAP TAP
David (caption): Beginning a new and hidden EPIC* journal. What I now know about my fellow club members must be kept secret, for their safety and mine.
Panel 2: David holding a mug of tea in his room as he views what he has written so far with a concerned expression.
David (caption): Amy is some kind of witch it seems. Griff claims to be be a werewolf and Dylan says he's a 'leopard man'...
Panel 3: A wolf and a panther circle each other, baring their teeth and growling.
David (caption): ...which might explain why they fight like cat and dog.
Panel 4: A distorted looking Lydia flies towdard us with jaws wide open to reveal sharp, protruding vampire teeth. She holds out a clawed hand and is covered in and surrounded by blood. Her hair billows out behind her like a giant, tendrilled sea creature.
David (caption): Then there's Lydia, whose vampire credentials I've seen with my own eyes. Established vampire myth seems not to apply but her abilities are even more terrifying, free from the legendary limitations.
Panel 5: Outside the Victorian townhouse which now contains Amy and Lydias's flat on the upper floors. It is dusk and on the pavement David and Lydia are in each others arms, their faces inches apart.
David (caption): Even so, I'm a willing victim of whatever intoxicating spell I find myself under.
Lydia: I'd invite you in, but I want you to miss me and think about me all night long. Will you do that for me David?
David: I will!
Panel 6: Inside the flat Lydia is now on all fours on her bed as Amy lies beneath her. Lydia wears fishnet tights and a black bra which Amy, with no visible clothing, is about to unhook. She looks up at Lydia with intense desire as dark vampire tresses curl around them both.
Lydia (caption): "And I'll do the same for you!"
David (caption): But all that can wait. We urgently need to find the 'Elmwych Vampire", before Evan Doncaster crashes the party.
