Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Virginia

I just got from my landlord an paper that they file with the court. It is an Summons for Unlawful Detainer. They are asking for November and December rent plus 100. Late fee and 58.24 cost. They said that the court date is set for December 13 but it look like it is set for December 27,2013. If I pay this before then do I still have to go to court and will I be remove from the apartment. I am trying to understand this because they post a paper on the door and I never got anything in the mail from them.
