Author Notes: Just a little something that popped into my head. The is the prequel to my story 'A New Beginning' but they can be treated as separate stories, and I will try and update them on a somewhat regular basis. This shouldn't be more than five chapters long, and all the chapters will be about the same length. Let me know what you think!

I awoke in a darkened room. I could hear the rain dripping on to the roof of the building, I could smell the damp air. I could hear voices around me, but when I looked around the room I found that I was alone. The voices were getting further away from me, but I could clearly hear everything that was being said. I took a moment to try and compose myself. The room was dark, but that didn't hinder my ability to see. There was a small window on one side, and opposite that there was a door. The room was empty save for a small damp cot that I was lying on.
I couldn't remember where I was, or what had happened to me. All I could remember was the burning sensation that filled my entire body. It seemed to last an eternity. Thankfully awoke from the pain, but it didn't end there. There was this awful feeling in my throat, it was as if I had gone weeks with out water.
I closed my eyes as a sudden dizziness came over me. I saw a beautiful blonde haired man hunched over an older woman, and it looked like he was tearing her apart. In an instant he was finished, and he wiped the blood from his mouth. I licked my lips at the thought of the blood. That's what I was craving.
I sat up from the old cot that I was resting on, and I noticed I was quite graceful on my feet. I gave a small twirl towards the window, and smiled. I was also quite fast. Something had happened to me, but I couldn't pinpoint what it was.
I reached the window, and went to open it, but it merely shattered at my touch. I winced at the loud sound it made, but that was forgotten as I looked out the window. There was an alley below me, and from it came the most delicious scent. There was an elderly man lurking in the shadows, and his blood was calling for me.
I climbed onto the window sill, and crouched down. I was prepared to attack. Just as I was about to jump I was faced with another vision. It was of another beautiful man, and this one had bronze hair. He was in the same position as the other male, but this one was feeding from an elk.
I jumped down from the window, and fought the urge to attack the older man. I almost gave in to my instincts, but I couldn't bring myself to harm anyone. I took off down the street in a blur and headed for the forest. It wasn't long before a young deer crossed my path, and the poor thing didn't stand a chance against me. I drank my fill and wiped away the blood from my mouth. The deer fell to the ground with a thud. The burning sensation in my throat was now a dull throb. It was more manageable.
I sat on the cool ground, not far from my meal and sighed. I had all these questions, but no answers. Who was I? What happened to me? Why was I lusting after blood? And who were the men in my visions? I placed my head in my hands, and I found that no matter how hard I tried, I could not cry. I didn't feel human anymore. What was I?
