Death
Prologue
I was laying on the roof, looking up at the moon, its soft light illuminating the night sky. This was my favorite time of night. When everyone is asleep in their beds, blissfully unaware of the creature in their midst who would never sleep again.
My gaze swept across the forest, a tiny twinkle of light catching my eye but when I turned my head towards it, it was gone. I shook my head, thinking my mind was playing tricks.
As I looked out over the small, sleepy town, I noticed that not much has changed. As much as the town hadn't changed, my life, well existence really, has changed dramatically since I was here last.
My life has changed twice. Once when a certain vampire entered my life and again when he left me and I died. I felt the darkness well up again as I thought about him but I pushed it away easily, settling back into my calm state. Fifty years away and I come back as a different person. Darkness rules my existence. I have mastered it for now but I have no idea when it will take control again.
I heard a howl in the distance. A tiny ghost of a smile adorned my features briefly. The wolves must have crossed my scent. The howl sounded again, filled with loneliness and longing. I made a mental note to visit next time I had the chance.
I stood up and brushed myself off, preparing to go back inside. Don't worry, Jake. I won't be leaving anytime soon. I swung through the window I had left open and landed gracefully on the floor of my old room in a crouch.
Two words came to mind as I straightened up.
I'm home.
After all, how was I supposed to know that my existence was about to change…again?
