I don't own Cirque Du Freak to my extreme displeasure but I DO own the main girl in this story. What's her name? No idea yet! It's a

short chapter but that's just what I do. If you don't like it too bad. Soo, read on!


I sighed impatiently. Waiting was always so boring. I was a teenage girl working the streets of New York. As in New York, New York. The big apple

and all that. Steve was supposed to be back by now. Maybe that evil Shan kid got him, I thought nervously. I wasn't quite sure what I was

supposed to do. I had just been blooded about a week ago and already I was aching for a taste of that red, life giving liquid.

I really hadn't wanted to be changed. It was just that Steve was so….. Steve. You know? There's always that one person that you'd do anything

for. Well, for me he was that guy. He made me feel… important. Like maybe, just maybe, I could help someone. Instead of living my pathetic life.

Okay, let's get this straight. My parents had died. A mad vampire sucked all their blood. Steve told me the whole story. Debbie tried to tell me

different but Steve wouldn't lie to me. It's just not what he does. Steve told me that the vampires had gotten to Debbie first. They had played with

her brain and now there was no going back for her. It was sad but I had Steve so I didn't need Debbie. Steve said that what had happened to my

parents was that a mad vampire had been living in the sewers beneath the city. The vampires always kill when they feed, he told me, but

occasionally some will go insane and drain people left and right with no caution at all. That's what this vampire had done. His name was Larten

Crepsley. Or Vur Horsten. He went by both. He had a helper in his attacks. The helpers name was Darren Shan. Steve told me about how they had

both been evil people. Crepsley had told Steve he was evil, but he wasn't. Steve couldn't be evil, he was too nice. Crepsley had told Darren that

Steve was evil. Darren had been his best friend, they had been together through everything. But Darren gave all that up in an instant. He didn't

care if he left Steve or his family. He only wanted to be a blood sucking monster. He didn't care that he killed people who were loved, as long as he

got a taste of that beautiful red liquid.

I told Steve that if Darren had been so blood crazy then he could just go suck on a tampon for all I cared. Steve laughed at that which made me

smile. He laughed at everything I said. He loved me. And that was all that mattered. Of course I am one of those blood sucking monsters now too

but I'll never do what he did. I'd never take someone's parents away. I'll take what I need and that'll be that. I left because I didn't have anything

to lose. Darren had everything, friends that cared, a loving family, but he just left it all.


This is just something I thought up, I may continue it but that's all up to the reviews I get. If I don't continue it though MILLIONS of questions will be left unanswered. I'm already working on a second chapter just in case but we'll see.
