I have decided to continue! Hope you like it!
It has been a week since the day at Riley Park. I really cared for Bree. If only I had the chance to tell her how I felt. I tried to show her, but I think she was oblivious to it. I let her sit near me, I read the books she left me, I never drove her away, and I offered for her to come with me. What more could I have done? She probably went off with that Diego. He's a good guy, but right now I can only resent him.
I slowed to a walk, where am I? I thought. I know that I'm nowhere near Vancouver or Seattle, but I'm in the middle of a forest. That gives me a lot to go off of. Which direction did I go out of Vancouver? I asked myself. I think I went North, but I can't really be sure. I want to find out where I am, just to see how far I made it in a week, but now, my throat is starting to burn. Ugh. I am so sick of having to feed like every three days. I guess I'll let my instincts take over, and see where that takes me.
I closed my eyes, and focused on my senses. I could smell the scent of humans not far from where I was. My nose told me East, so that's the direction I went. After about three miles, I ran into a little fishing village. There didn't seem to be any homeless bums here, so I proceeded to finding humans that were the closest to what I had been taught to feed on, the ones who nobody cared about. I jumped into a tree and to the top of a building after that. I went from roof to roof, until I caught the scent of a human girl in an alleyway below. I jumped silently into the alley behind the girl. But, unlike when I've been feeding previously, I could still think about other things. I'm really down, so I decided that I'll have a little bit of fun with the girl.
"Come here often?" I asked, using one of the pickup lines I remembered from my human life. The girl jumped.
"Where did you come from?" she asked me.
"I asked you a question first sweetheart," I replied coolly, "but if you must know, I came from Seattle."
"N-no, just now, when you appeared behind me," she said nervously, "how did you get here?"
"It's a secret." I told her. The girl was clearly scared. I could see it in her eyes. "Come closer." I said. She took a few steps closer, convincing me that I intrigued her. She was only a foot away now. I inhaled deeply. She smelled sweet, like strawberries.
"I don't know who you are, or how you found me," she said, "but I'm glad you did."
"I'm glad I found you too," I replied, "and do you want to know my secret?" She nodded.
"I'm a vampire," I whispered in her ear just before I sank my teeth into her neck. She didn't even have time to register my secret.
I felt a lot better after feeding off the girl. I think that I am getting old enough that I can now still have thoughts other than thoughts of blood. The girl that I just drained reminded me of Bree. She had the same shape of her face, the same trusting eyes, and the same look of intelligence that someone that age should not posses.
I sighed. My life is a lot duller without Bree around. I dragged the girl's body into the woods to dispose of it, and walked back into town to try and find a newspaper or something. I didn't find a newspaper, but flying from a flagpole in the center of the village was a flag, with a red maple leaf on it.
Canada, eh? Hm. I was right about going North, but what should I do now? I could keep going North, but the only thing I'm sure I'll find is Alaska, and maybe some polar bears. If I go East, I could hang around in Canada for a while. If I go West, I'll run into the ocean in just a few miles. And If I go South, I go back to the 48 states down there. I don't know, I'll just go North. I'll go to Alaska, chill with some polar bears or something. The cold won't bother me.
A/N: Sorry for being so long for those who have long awaited the continuation of this story, but It's finally here. I can't do to much lately, a bit of writer's block, and some visiting relatives. If you would please review to help Fred.
