Every night she would be at the bar. Every night taking someone home. It was something eerie about her, but at the same time something pulled you towards you. Yes, she was beautiful without a doubt. Long blond hair, flawless pale skin and a lean body. Always in a new stunning dress every night the two weeks she had been spending here. She had tried getting me home with her twice; I'm not that kind of guy. She is a nice girl from what I've picked up. Very smart without doubt, but she used her body to get the guys with her home.

She must be new in town. She better watch out, because there's a serial killer lurking around here. Three people had been killed so far. My long time friend Itachi, working in the police said that they had no clues. They had found blond hair on all three of the victims, but none of them contained DNA. Nothing like that had ever happened. They were going to ask for assistance from the FBI if they found another body.

This was going on in the little town of Polk, Wisconsin. Population 4.578.

I sat down by the bar; I had just finished grading the last test. I worked at the local high school. I had been born and raised here. When I went away to get my college degree I realized that this was the only place I could be happy, still I longed for something else. I was bored to say it that way. I loved the small, everybody knows everybody vibe in the town. I still longed for something bigger, something bigger.

I ordered a beer. While I waited for it she came in the door. She had a thick scarf around her neck even if it was summer. She always wore a thick coat, but I had never seen her with a scarf. She was wearing a deep red dress, and with a large black bow around her waist. The cleavage was deep. The tag in the back read Valentino I could make out when she sat down next to me. I knew that that dress couldn't have been cheap. It was still early; there were only a few people in the bar. All of them older and sitting in pairs. She must have been around 24 if I had to guess. I, myself was 26.

"Why did you come here, to Polk? Did you even know about the town before you came here?" She slowly turned around and pretended like she just had noticed me. "I'm just passing through, trying to finish my novel." So she was a writer, maybe she was a famous writer. She seemed to have more than enough cash. "What is it about?" I felt that I was curious about this woman. "History, people, it's not done." She didn't seem willing to talk about it. She ordered some drink. I wasn't paying attention to that. "You must be a lonely man," she said bluntly. I did not know how to respond to that. "You come here every night, yet you are not an alcoholic. Sometimes accompanied by friends, but mostly alone. I don't get your kind." She had been watching me, I felt more scared than flattered to put it frankly. "Then you're just as lonely as me, lady." She had a sip of her drink. "Yes, I am very lonely indeed. I will soon return home and everything will change. You will still be the lonely bachelor in the bar. You will never find anyone here. Here only loneliness, desperation and pain will await you." She spoke so calmly, her words sounded so sincere and true. She put some money in front of her. "I will not dine tonight, so I might as well go home."

She was out the door before I knew it. I finished my beer and ran after her. "Wait!" I called out. I didn't know where she came from, but she was right in front of me. "Yes, Sir?" I could sense that she was pleased. We have had long talks, but she had never interested me beyond that. "How can you say all that? How can you know all those things?" She took a step closer and whispered in his ear. "It's one of my many gifts. I know you Deidara, I know everything about you. What you have done, and what your future might bring you. I only know what it might bring, it's not clear like it is with others. That frustrates me, you frustrate me." With that she started walking away from me. I didn't know what to do; I was tempted to run after her. I just stood there in silence, watching her walk away from me. I couldn't stand there for too long, people might start to wonder. I went home, thinking about this girl. She must have been out of her mind. I didn't feel safe, what if she was a stalker or even worse, what if she was the serial killer? I was awake that night, my neck was itching. Something must have bitten me.

At school I could not concentrate. I was far worse than any of the other students. I was supposed to teach them about myths. I made them pick a book about mythological creatures to read. I was lost in thoughts. She would not slip, just was constantly on my mind. There was something about her. I would seek her out later that day. Asking for danger, asking for death maybe. I went home right after school. I wrote down everything I knew about her, what she had said to me or what I had heard her say to others. It was then it hit me! The killings had started occurring shortly after she had come to town. I had to call Itachi about this. He didn't seem impressed, but he would look into it. He told me to stay away from her in the mean time. Like I could do that, I needed to see her. I was drawn to her. I went to the only hotel we had in town, she was staying in room 18. I knocked; she opened before I had time to knock for a third time. She looked sickly, drained of energy. She let me in and locked the door. She had packed her suitcase, but from the looks of it she had been sleeping. "Did I come at a bad time?" She was already asleep in bed, or so it seemed. "Come back at eight, I leave at ten." I nodded, but she couldn't see that. I let myself out and went home to wait. I tried watching tv, making dinner, nothing worked. I couldn't wait for the time to turn eight.

I was outside her room before eight, I didn't want to disturb her again so I waited to it to turn eight precisely. She opened the door before I could knock this time. "You could have come in earlier, no reason to wait outside." How she knew I was outside I didn't want to ask her. I had some other questions to ask her. "You're here because you can't get me out of your mind. You're curious, you're wondering." She was spot on. I didn't know where to start, what to say. "Thankfully I am alsoi intrigued by you, drawn towards you. I think I need you. You smell so sweat and make me hunger." I made her hungry, she had smelled me? "I was so sure you would have figured out this by now. I must have given you too much credit. I'm not like you, Deidara. I am not living, I am not mortal, I am simply a vampire." I backed up against the wall. "I smelt this heavenly scent passing through this town. I knew I had to stay, I had to have a taste. It was you I smelled, Deidara. It was you I craved." I was shaking, it could not be true, and she must be some psychopath. She came closer to me, I could not move further away from her. Some of me wanted to stay, I could leave through the door. She ran her hand through my hair. Her head was small so she easily found her way to my neck. "Don't worry, I've already tasted you. This time I need more, I will use poison this time." I felt a stabbing pain, and hardly had time to worry about poison before it kicked in. Never had any woman, or anything made me feel this way. I screamed out in pleasure, I could not hold my own bodyweight. She did, while sucking me dry. She stopped sucking for a while. She just had her teeth inside of me. When she released me I still wasn't able to stand on my own. I fell in front of her feet. It was embarrassing.

She sat down on the bed and waited for me to recover. She had gotten color in her face and had some sort of glow around her. It was not a real glow, it just seemed that way. "You bit me… Will I? Am I?" She looked down on me and smiled. "Not everything you've seen or read about us is true. You're nothing more or less than a human. I have not turned you, nor do I intend to turn you. It would have been such a shame to waste that delicious blood of yours." I couldn't believe this. I was on a hotel room floor in front of a woman I don't know, but allowed to suck me dry. "It's time for me to depart now." Was it ten already. "I will give you a choice, you can stay put in this town, or come with me. I will let you see the world, things not even the wildest human imagination could come up with, but I will feed off you and I will never no matter how much you beg, turn you."
