The Creature
I stood there in the night watching the creature saunter around the back ally ways. Occasionally a passing cars headlight would reach the face of the creature. The ivory skin seemed to reflect the light back to the car. The brown side-swept hair fell into the creatures dark hungry eyes shielding their reddish tinge from innocents passing by. He stood there waiting…
And waiting…
He spies his prey. His dark eyes grow even darker. His gleaming white sharp teeth start to drip with venom. He stalks his victim the way a panther would its prey before the kill. The slender, well toned body stretches and strains with every precise movement. His bare feet padding along the cold hard ground increase in tempo as he starts to run.
He starts to breathe more rapidly, even though breathing is not a necessity for one of his kind. His foot kicks a pebble and the victim reels around, he slips into cover quickly, but not quick enough. She catches a glimpse of his black clad clothing.
She starts to run. Her head snapped over her shoulder every few seconds hoping to see a retreating silhouette but instead is met with two hungry eyes begging for blood to spill, right next to her right shoulder. The victim's heartbeat started to quicken like it was showing him where the target was, not that he needed the help. The victim rounded the corner expecting to now be free of the creature due to all the bystanders that would be around, all the witnesses, surely he wouldn't pounce then. She was met with a dead end covered with grime and mould like it hadn't seen sunlight in years. Instead of all the people like she had hoped. Reading her mind he started to advance forward painstakingly slow waiting for the opportune moment to pounce and press his cold granite like lips to her pale neck.
He stepped out into the glow of the streetlight that lit only a small fraction of the dark night. Then his victim screams out loudly "Emmett! What the hell do you think you are doing you knucklehead!" he slowly advanced grinning "Emmett if you do, I will not go to the school Halloween party with you!" frowning, his red eyes becoming filled with sorrow, he takes a step away.
"But Rosalie!" just as she parted her lips to speak a car comes screeching around the corner and a teenage monster and alien step out of the car.
The scent of cheap make up and the strong sweet, mouth watering scent of human blood almost knocked him over. Their blood was singing to him to come and taste it. He stands protectively in front of his girl, like a panther would its young. The alien speaks up "Emmett man! That costume's awesome! Where'd you get it?" the monster who looked as frightening and intimidating as a very young cub squeaks in a nasally voice.
"Yeah man, I don't see why you needed the fake teeth though bro, your teeth look like that…" he trails off as realisation kicks in. Emmett calmly removed his plastic fangs and pocketed them. He then leaped towards the boys, a panther going in for the kill, with his Panthress at his heels as they attack. They each sunk their pointed white venom coated fangs into their preys' neck and proceeded to suck the humans dry.
