Vampires: Reality
Prologue : Reality Check!
I walked down the tiled hallway of my school to my, it was black and white tiles, there was little traffic. It was class time, I was late, but I had a good excuse, I was at the doctor's and I had a note. I turned from the hall to the door of my class. I opened the door.
Nothing could have prepared me for what I saw. I saw blood, lots and lots of blood. It covered the walls, floor and the ceiling. There were bodies hanging from the fucking ceiling from pipes in the ceiling with shoe laces. Bodies littered the floor, the carpet was drenched in blood, fresh blood. Some desks were overturned. Their were some bodies slumped over their desks; their throats slashed, some had their heads bent back, exposing their wound. I saw one person that was alive.
Her name was Sabrina, she was a loner like me. However our loner status was more or less forced. Everyone thought she was weird, too weird; with her abnormally pale skin, and her bottle of red liquid, she always said it was punch but wouldn't let anyone have a taste, She almost never talked to anyone even if they talked to her. I was pretty much the only one that ever talked to her and she would talk back to me. I don't like to even think about why I'm in 'exile'. She was wearing a tight black tee shirt that hugged against her chest, with tight blue jeans that hugged her curves very nicely. She was also covered in blood, her tee shirt darken in most parts of her shirt. The majority of her jeans also were covered in blood. Her hands were by far the most bloodiest. She knew, I don't know how I know she did or even how she knew; I didn't make a sound. But she knew that I was standing there, she lifted her head and turned to the side and caught sight of me, she smiled, she had droplets of blood on her cheek, she turned back and she was suddenly gone.
Next, I didn't probably the most stupid thing I ever did, in the movies and the books told me not to walk backwards, but like an idiot; I did. I ran into something, it was her I knew it. I stepped forward and spun myself around. She was smiling at me. It was strange I almost never seen her smile, but she was smiling now, now that she killed everyone in this class; well almost everyone. I noticed I was shaking uncontrollability. I was scared, more scared than ever had been before. She started walking towards me, I started to back up. I tripped over a student's body, I didn't know his name. I hit my head on the carpet. Sabinia tripped over the same body. But her tripping was intentional, she fell on me. She pinned me to the ground. She was much stronger than she looked, stronger than me, I was very surprised.
"I bet you can guess what I am. I know your smart enough to know that my able to pin you and my slaying of our classmates are things that are impossible to a human," She told me, her voice calm and smooth.
"There.. there's a fe-few ans-answers," I stuttered.
"Let me give you a hint, you worship what I am," She told me. How the hell did she know that, I never told her.
"V-Vampire," I said whispering.
"Bingo," She confirmed.
"But..." I started.
"You thought that vampires were more romantic figures," She said, reading my mind for all I knew, because that is what I was thinking.
"Why be romantic when you can just get what you want fast. Besides, I was raised to think humans only as cattle. You people; humans, are so weak, so stupid, so ignorant, so blind to the truth. We are the world's natural predator, we are on the top of the food chain, what's the flaw in this thinking?" She asked.
"I...I don't know," I said, I didn't know where she was going with this.
"When there is a human that is more than just cattle," She answered herself. She was smiling but her crimson eye color put me back on edge.
"I know almost everything that there is to know about you," She told me.
"What is that suppose to mean?" I asked. "Are you going to blackmail me?" I asked.
"I know you, I know you worship my kind without even knowing our existence," She said.
"I know that you are the schools former archery champion, until you dropped out, or forced out is more the word. And the current champ's got nothing on how good you are," She said.
"I know that you do LARP, and that you are a close combat "Monster" for all intents and purposes," She continued.
"I know your secret. Well it's not really a secret, everybody knows about it. That the last few girlfriends were killed. And that almost everyone thinks that you killed them with no existing evidence, but rumors abound about why you killed them. But I don't think that you killed them," She said. I was surprised, she didn't think like the rest of the school, and somewhat relived; at least one person didn't think I killed them.
"Why are you so sure, how do you know all this about me?" I asked her. She was still smiling, she must have liked being on top of me, or she must have liked to see me twist in the wind. But I think that it was the former.
"I'll tell you in time, but that time is not now," She told me.
"Why?" I asked.
"Because I don't want to tell you yet," She said. Not much of a reason, no justification in my opinion but I had no room to talk. She could kill me just as easily as she had killed the other students.
"Well is there a reason that you won't get off me?" I asked, not that I minded that much.
"Yes," She said.
"And that would be?" I asked.
"I like how your heartbeat," she said leaning down and putting her ear to my heart.
"Is it too much to ask that you don't take it out?" I asked.
"No, your heart won't beat for long if it's out of your body," she said revealing her gruesome logic.
"That's nice, the only reason you don't kill me is because you like the sound of my heartbeat," I said. She didn't say anything, we just laid there for awhile. She seemed content, dare I say, happy. After at least 20 minutes she looked up at me.
"Come with me," She said.
"Where?" I asked her.
"My place," She responded smiling.
"Your kidding right?" I asked, really hoping that she was.
"No," she said seriously, Fuck.
"You think I'm going on my own volition?" I asked.
"I could just as easily drag you out of here by your ankles," She said.
"I guess it be easier on me to walk," I said. She smiled. She got off me, and got up. I got up too. She walked to the door. I stayed there, and under gone a realization: I just laid with a vampire in the mist of 30 or so corpses that she killed, for at least 20 minutes what the fuck is wrong with me? I asked myself. She opened the door and we both left the school. Luckily no one saw us leave. She told me on our way out that she had convinced the attendance people that they both weren't here for the day. We walked from the school mostly in silence.
"It'll only take about 10 minutes to get to my house," She told me as we walked on the sidewalk. It was an overcast today, the big almost black clouds threated to rain. I looked down at the watch on my wrist. It was 9:13, no 9:14. On the way there she just stopped in the middle of the walk.
"What's wrong?" I asked she didn't look like she was hurt though.
"I'm...Thirsty," she said. I looked at her.
"Um...What do you want me to do?" I asked. She walked over to me, her eyes had gone back to normal shining emerald green before, but now they were back to crimson, but they seemed to be glowing now.
"Give me a finger," She commanded. I did, giving her my left index finger. She lifted my finger to her mouth and opened her mouth. I saw that her canine teeth were elongated about 2 inches. She poked my finger with one of her fangs. After a few tries she finally broke skin. She rolled her tongue and put my finger on her tongue. She closed her mouth with my finger in it. And started to suck, he eyes rolled back in her head. I thought that she was crazy, but after a few moments her eyes were back to complete normalized, her eyes were back to their brilliant emerald colored and they were back "in her head."
"Thank you," She said. She started to walk away, but she stumbled like she was more than a little drunk. She took one step and another but nearly fell to the gray cement but I caught her.
"Thanks again," She said, her speech slured. I wasn't completely sure she was sober. I swept her up, holding her by her back and behind her knees. She wrapped her arms around my neck. She looked like she was asleep but her eyes flickered open every so often. I walked with her in my arms for a few minutes.
"Stop here, let me down please?" she asked. I did.
"Thank you again," She said, she smiled a little.
"Here, follow me," She said. She led me into the nearest street from the main road. We walked to the end of the street. Her house was centered with the road. It was more of a mansion at least 8 rooms, it was very... clean. A white picket fence, a lush green lawn, and a nice group of flower beds.
"Home sweet home," she said. She opened the fence and walked up to the double white door and opened them. She walked in and I walked in too. For the briefest moment I felt an open hand on the side of my head before I was inside the wall by the door. Blackness engulfed me, and I was pulled from the wall to light. Then consciousness left me,
"Hawk! Hawk!" Sabrina yelled my name as I slipped from the world of light into unconsciousness.
