Blood and Energon:

Ch 1 to punish and enslave

'The alley shadows are darker than usual tonight.' A young woman thought, silently stalking down a relatively wide alleyway. 'Maybe it's this strange feeling I've been getting lately…'

The young woman, Bethany, was what could be called a technopath. She could sense and, to some extent, control machinery and technology.

She continued down the alley, making her way to a broken down police car. She could read the words to punish and enslave on its side. What truly disturbed her was the odd sense of life she could feel within it.

"Hey baby, you lost?" A loud male voice called from behind her.

She spun around quickly. Having been so focused on the strange car, she had failed to notice three men entering the alley behind her. They smelled of liquor and had predatory smiles on their faces.

"Don't be scared beautiful." They were advancing toward her. "We just wanna play."

Bethany backed up until she was almost pressed against the police car, which seemed to be… Slightly annoyed? She puzzled this in the back of her mind while remembering where she had seen the three men before. Yesterday close to that same alley, they had assaulted a young girl. She had only been 14 or so and they were in plain view of several passersby when they dragged her into the dark.

Unfortunately for them, she was no ordinary human. They tried to act intimidating, but she just smirked. Throwing the closest into the alley wall he cracked his skull. The smell of his blood, fouled as it was from the alcohol, sent her into a frenzy. She broke the neck of the second man and grabbed the third; biting into his neck and feeling the warm blood fill her mouth. She hadn't fed in far too long, and the blood helped her thirst immensely.

She was too caught up to realize she was being watched. Barricade had witnessed her uncommon speed and strength. She was definitely not human. The woman didn't even register as a life form on his remaining scanners. Against his better judgment, he found himself curious about her.

"Great. Now I have to clean up." Bethany sighed lifting the bodies like they were nothing. 'And what will Roderick think?'

She was startled out of her thoughts by the seemingly empty police car beside her turning on its headlights and revving its engine. Bethany dropped the bodies and fell into a low crouch, ready to jump at the slightest sign of danger. What actually unnerved her was the lack of driver present in the vehicle.

Rising slowly, she walked over to the car. Again she could sense life within it.

"What are you?" She whispered softly, narrowing her eyes.

Barricade backed out of the alley and opened his doors. Not sure why, and definitely against all his better judgment, he was curious about the woman. She didn't seem to be a weak fleshie like the humans. According to what he saw, she could easily move at speeds of 100mph. The woman was also strong enough to pick up the male humans, combined weight 429lbs, as if they weighed nothing at all.

Bethany considered the car for a moment. She didn't sense a great amount of hostility, mostly just curiosity. "Alright then."

She grabbed the bodies again, and unceremoniously piled them in the back seat. Getting a feeling of mild disgust, she climbed into the driver's seat. Feeling along the dashboard she noticed the thick layer of dust covering everything.

After a moment she took the steering wheel and pulled out into the street. 'What have I gotten into?' Bethany sped down dark streets at well over 100mph. 'A sentient car? Why do I have such an uneasy feeling about this?' Rapidly turning a corner she started to slow down.

Pulling up to a little used dock she stepped out quickly grabbing the corpses. Barricade watched as she slipped into the water. By human standers she was probably considered very beautiful. She had long black and slightly messy hair, pale skin without any blemishes, a well proportioned figure, and crimson red eyes. 'I've never seen a human with red eyes before.'

Bethany swan quickly despite the three men she was dragging along. She was looking for a large boulder so that she could leave the men in the sound and forget about the. Unfortunately she couldn't forget and would have to settle for not thinking about them.

Finding the rock she was looking for, she held the men in one arm while lifting at the base of the rock with the other. Despite the boulder being many times her size, she was able to lift it and throw the men underneath it. Then she shoved it down hard on top of them and swam back to the dock. The police would never find the bodies of those disgusting dregs.

The young vampire then swam back to the surface and smoothly pulled herself unto the dock. Returning to the odd police car she looked over it again. It was pretty beat up. With large dents and scratches in the paint, one door looked like it wouldn't open and another had the window busted out. There were also most likely many other problems that couldn't be seen easily. She walked up to the driver side door and got in, still feeling slightly suspicious of the car. However her curiosity won out.
