Year 1980
Bellamy P.O.V
It was dark and the sun had just set. I walked home with my sister who was a year younger than me. We needed to get home soon, before it got any later or else we'd get grounded. Yes I was a seventeen year old who still feared getting grounded. We went through the alley as a quicker way of getting home. Just as we entered the alley, we heard a loud bang. My little sister, Octavia, froze.
"What was that?" She asked sounding slightly frightened.
I peered around and saw nothing."I don't know, but lets keep walking." We continued only to stop once again as we saw a shadowy figure step in front of us. We backed up, but the figure neared us.
"Octavia run as soon as I tell you to," I whispered.
"Okay," she responded. We walked backwards slowly, but we ran into someone else. We whipped around and faced two more shadowy figures.
"Octavia run!" I yelled, and she broke into a sprint. I swung a punch to one hooded figure then to the other, before breaking into a sprint myself. Octavia was right ahead of me and we were forced to skid to a stop when out of nowhere the same three hooded figures appeared in front of us.
"Where do you think you're going?" The middle one asked, taking off his hood. We turned and went to sprint the other way, but the same middle one appeared before us. What? How was that possible?
"You can't run." The middle one said."Maybe I should introduce myself, I'm Aiden. The two boys behind you are David and Ortiz, and we're in need of something that you two have plenty of." I stepped in front of Octavia protectively. "Don't worry this will only hurt a little bit." In a split second I was slammed to the ground and Octavia was pushed against a wall. My breath was knocked out if me and a painful throbbing rang in my head. Aiden held me down with one hand. How was that even possible? I had a considerably good amount of strength, and Aiden didn't even look close to being as strong me.
"Which one do you want Aiden?" One of the other two asked.
Aiden responded with a smirk. "Doesn't matter David, they both have the same type O RH blood that is so hard to come by." Blood, what the frig were they talking about?
"Then we'll share the girl," David responded. "She'll taste good."
"No, don't touch her," I spat trying, but failing to get up.
Aiden rolled his eyes."Don't worry about your baby sister. She'll be fine." Just as he said that, I heard Octavia scream. I thrashed against Aiden's hand, but I was too weak. He laughed and grabbed my wrist. "I'll admit this seems a little weird to me, but we do what we have to do." What happened next was something I didn't expect. His eyes turned a bright red and two sharp fangs drew out from his gums. He pressed the teeth into my wrist. An immediate surge of pain shot through my arm as I physically felt my blood being sucked out of me. A hot stinging coursed through my veins as I began to convulse and shake. I grunted, clenching my teeth and the muscles in my neck strained. The world moved around and all of a sudden it all stopped. I felt no more pain and the world went black for what seemed like less than a minute. When the world came back to me, the sun was barely rising on the horizon. Octavia was knocked out near the wall and the hooded figures were nowhere to be seen. My head was pounding violently. I stood walking over to Octavia. I shook her slightly.
"O, wake up." I shook her again."O."
Her eyes fluttered open and I let out a sigh of relief. She was okay. Octavia let out a groan, no doubt she was having a headache too.
Suddenly Octavia remembered what had happened and her eyes filled with fear."Who- what were those things?"
I grabbed her shoulders forcing her to look me in the eye."Octavia, what did they do to you?"
She squinted her eyes, trying to remember."They, I think they bit me." She sounded surprised."They bit my wrists." She held both her wrists out. On each were to perfect circle marks. I looked at my own wrist, and similar marks were on my wrist. Thinking back I remembered the fangs, the unnatural speed and strength. I also remembered the blood talk, and the bright red, flashing eyes. It was dark so we were not able to see them completely, but were they pale?
"Bell?" Octavia's voice pulled me out of my thoughts."Do you think..." She didn't have to finish her sentence, because I knew what she was going to say.
I shook my head."No Octavia. That can't be possible."
Octavia pursed her lips before speaking."But Bell, from what I saw they seem like-"
"No," I repeated firmly."Vampires don't exist." They didn't exist. They're not real. They only live in horror stories and nightmares, that's it. Vampires don't, I repeat don't exist.
Oh how wrong you are, I heard a voice say. This is only the beginning.
