The Beginning

I could hear her voice even before I stepped onto the old wooden floor, the soft melodic sound of her carefree laughter that had followed me through my childhood. I was too panicked to think beyond finding her, but as the sunlight poured through the large window down onto the studio floor below I could find no trace of her with my eyes. Following her voice I stood warily in front of what seemed to be a cupboard door. I hesitated for just a fraction of a moment and then whipped the doors back, the sight of the old thick television and the whirring of an archaic video tape sending a hollow realisation down to the tip of my toes. I could already feel his eyes watching me, hidden somewhere within the room. The only thing keeping me on my feet was the rush of adrenaline still pouring through my system.

I turned too late, he was already upon me, his lank blonde hair and demonic red eyes rolling my stomach with fear and comprehension; death had found me.

He played with me, breaking bone after sickening bone, the smirk on his lips broadening to a grin as the screams I'd stubbornly tried to hold back tore from my throat.

"Is there anything you'd like to say to your darling Edward before I destroy you?" He asked, and I noticed a slim black video recorder in his hand, the lens splattered with sharp, crimson blood.

I forced my eyes open and focused on the tiny red light, saying the only words I needed him to hear.

"I love you Edward."

His bellowing laughter filled the room and though my mind told me to fight back, to not give up if I had even one ounce of strength left, I merely groaned in pain when he lifted me into his arms. I felt his cool breath on my skin and then his tongue swept stickily up my neck.

"Mmmm, such a shame you didn't get a chance to taste her Edward, because let me tell you, her blood is fucking divine…maybe I'll leave you a drop behind…but then again maybe not." I felt my whole body begin to drift away, and just as I was on the abyss of finding peace, a violent fire exploded in my neck.
