Barrel shook his head.

"Sorry," he said. "I really should just start having it on hand before practice."

Lock started to charge for his sister again, but was stopped by Lillith. He glared at Shock, who simply crossed her arms and stuck out her tongue. When Carmilla spoke up, Lock set his sights on her.

"[I]You[/i]!" he cried. "You took them, didn't you?"

Lock ran for her, but found himself crashing to the floor as Carmilla used her vampiric speed to sidestep at the last possible second. He rolled forward and stopped only when his back hit the wall, much to his siblings' amusement.

"You done?" Shock asked.

Lock growled as he tried to get up again. He painfully stood up again and dusted himself off.

"Not until I find my guitar strings!"

"Then maybe you should stop fighting and start looking," Shock suggested.

"Or you can just tell me!"

Shock scoffed.

"Can't tell you what I don't know," she said.
