I came up with this idea after watching Underworld: Awakening.
Ben was out in the woods, alone. He had gotten himself into yet another argument with his cousin, Gwen. After yelling at on another, he felt he had to go walk of some steam. Their grandfather, Max, had warned him against going out saying that there are things out there that could harm him. But, he simply explained that, if anything did try to attack him, he would simply go hero. Though he had no idea how bad that idea would be.
Has he walked through the woods, he began to hear weird sounds. His curiosity got the better of him as he went towards the sound. He saw two creatures fighting each other. One looked to be human, except for its glowing blue eyes and in very long and sharp fangs. The other looked like a giant dog with hair loss. At this point, he realizes that he should probably get away, quietly. He takes a few steps back feeling that everything would be fine when suddenly, snap. He had stepped on a twig, his heart stopped beating as he saw the two creatures stop fighting and stare at him. They left his sight in a flash and both just as quickly bit down on opposite sides of his neck. Ben let out a deafening scream as they bit down on his neck. After only a minute, they both let go of him and ran off into the night.
Ben laid there for afew seconds before he went back to the RV. Once there, he got a "welcoming" from Gwen.
"Did you hear that scream?" she said, "Do you know where it came from?"
"Yeah." Ben said taking a step closer to Gwen so she was able to see his bleeding neck, "It was me."
She stared at him wide eyed, "What happened!"
Grandpa Max heard Gwen yell and came to investigate what was going on. He then saw Ben and quickly went to Ben.
"Ben, how this this happen?" Max asked his Grandson.
"It happened so fast." Ben said weakly.
Max took a closer look at both of the wounds, he immediately froze when he realized what creatures had bitten the child. He lifted the boy into his arms and headed to the motor home, with Gwen following close behind him. Max placed Ben on the bottom bunk and headed for the driver's seat.
"Keep an eye on him." Max told his Granddaughter.
She did what he asked her and sat next to her wounded cousin. Though she thought he was oblivious to life and was dubbed an idiot in her book, he was still her family and she worried about him a lot. He then started to squirm around in pain. She reached out her hand to help, but he roughly swiped it away. This action had set Gwen off.
"G-Get away…." Ben said.
"Hey I'm just trying to help! You don't have to act like a jerk!" Gwen snapped.
The RV stopped suddenly and roughly. Max then went to the side door of the Rust Bucket and opened it. On the other side was a woman, fairly tall with short blonde hair, glowing blue eyes, and long upper canines. She stared at max with concern.
"What's the problem, Max?" she said with a slight accent.
"My Grandson was attacked, Alexandra." Max told the odd woman.
She quickly walked into the RV and went to Ben. She looked at his wounds and frowned.
"Has he had blood since he was bitten?" Alexandra asked Max.
"Not to my knowledge." Max said.
"What are you talking about? And who is she?" Gwen said with concern.
"Things will be explained later, my child." Alexandra said pulling a knife from her boot, "Right now, he has to feed or else he'll die."
She then took the knife to her wrist. Then, she pressed the bleeding wrist to his lips. He kept refusing, and Gwen tried her best not to stop her because she knew that their Grandpa trusted her.
"It's okay Ben, she knows what she's doing." Max said.
Hearing his Grandfather's words, he reluctantly gave in and sucked onto Alexandra's open wound. Ben then shot open his eyes and grabbed the arms with both hands and began to gulp down the blood. Gwen stared at his eyes in shock. They weren't his normal green jades, they were cold glowing ice blue and where the eye was supposed to be white was black.
"Slow down." Alexandra said as she gently stroked Ben's hair with her other hand.
He slowed down and, eventually, stopped. Alexandra removed her wrist from his mouth and looked at his neck. The wounds then started to heal on their own.
"It isn't safe here, we have to go to my cabin." Alexandra said.
"Where's it at?" Max said heading to the driver's seat.
"Just up the hill." She told him.
To be continued….
How's that! I know it seems like I rush into things, but I like things that get straight to the point! We all have our differences, I'm just embracing it.
