In a forest that was in the middle of nowhere was a jail, a jail that kept only one prisoner. A prisoner that society had completely forgot about. There were only a few who knew of the prisoners existence and those were the guards. The guards knew that they were not to make contact with the monster.
He was kept in the basement of the mansion that was created to keep him from the outside world. There he had stayed for a century, in a birdcage. He was sitting on a bench that was the only thing in the lonely cage. He was holding his head in his hands, the palms hiding his face. That's the way he had been for this long time. His legs would have probably been hurting from his elbows pressing into them for all this time, that is if he was just a normal prisoner. All you could see was his blonde messy hair that looked like a lions mane, his white shirt and black jeans.
"36524.2199 days" said the man. He had not spoken in 100 years yet his voice sounded clear and strong. He uncovered his eyes and lifted his head. The prisoners eyes were shining blood red, pulling whoever looked into them under his control, but his face showed no emotion what so ever.
As he stood up the bench made a awful sound and that was the last thing heard before a huge power wave come from the man. In completely destroyed the bird cage they had kept him in hoping he would not get out of it.
A alarm went off and some of the guards went running out of the house too scared to even face the monster that so politely let himself out, but some that were either brave or just plain stupid went running towards the basement.
As the first guard shot a bullet straight into the mans head and heart he understood that they all had no chance of survival as the bullet didn't even penetrate the mans skin and just fell against the floor making the smallest sounds of the metal bullets hitting the ground.
It happened in only a moment. The prisoner had his hand on one side of the guards head and with impossible strength he smashed the guards scull against the wall. And so they all died one after the other. None getting even a chance to hurt him.
The man walked out of the mansion with blood on his hands and jeans. A group of three met him. One was dressed in a suit, the other was dressed in everyday clothes with a leather jacket on and the last one was dressed in very fashionable clothes that looked to be very expensive . Around them were a bunch of the runaway guards, all dead. "Nice to see you haven't lost track of time" the guy in the leather jacket said.
"Shut up" the man said as he took a black hoodie and a winter west from the guy that was dressed min the expensive clothing. The snow was falling, but it didn't melt against any of the four people. There was just no body heat to melt it.
"Welcome back Austin" said the guy in the suit said.
Pounding. Louder. And louder. Too loud. Were Austin's thoughts as he was woken up from his sleep. Just as he had awoken the banging stopped and made the monster even more annoyed with the being down stairs. He could hear the steps of whoever had decided to let themselves in . The person had come up to the second floor and that is when Austin heard it.
Pounding. Louder. And louder. Right out of the chest. A heart beating. A creepy smile full of sadistic joy had appeared on his face. He got out of bed and opened the door just to see the girls back as she wondered the halls. She looked short, well shorter than Austin for sure and she had long beautiful brown hair. "You know it's impolite to wonder around someone's house without invitation" it seemed that his voice had startled the girl as she turned around to see the man resting against the door.
"I-I'm sorry. It's just that my father died. Well he wasn't my father he was just a priest that took me in, but you see he left me a note saying that if or when he died I need to come here." The girl rambled as she came closer to the man she was talking to.
A priest? Austin had no memory of promising something to someone like that. "You seemed to have stepped into the wrong house. And not just cause it isn't the one you are looking for." He said as he pressed the girls body.
The girl didn't understand what was happening. How did he do that? Her head was pressed against his chest when she realized something.
Nothing. Quiet. So quiet. Too quiet. No heartbeat. She tried pushing away from his body frightened. "You have no heartbeat! You need a hospital! You are dead"
"Quite the opposite, my love. I am very much alive" He said pressing his lips against her ear and his nose brushing against her hair.
"What are you doing?" her heartbeat was quickening and that only made Austin's smile bigger. "Oh I think you already know" he said as he lowered his head to her neck and opened his mouth slightly his fangs poking out. As he smelled the blood that was just beneath the skin he got a little distracted. Sweet.
The girl saw her opportunity and pushed him with all her strength, breaking free. She ran, ran as fast as she could to the doors. "Open. Why won't you open?" She said in frustration.
The man was right behind her and in a second he had her back against the door. "Did you really think you could escape? Now for the moment I have been waiting for. Please humor me by screaming" He said as he looked at her with his dark red eyes. How had I not noticed that?
And just as he was about to pierce her skin…
Hope you enjoyed the chapter.
