Disclaimer: I own nothing.
The venom...it feels...it feels like a blazing fire with in my body. Soon I notice the fire leaving my finger tips and toes. The only way to describe the quenching of the fire is think of when once had a fever and a cool rag was put on their forehead. But this...this was no fever. No, this was a sentence to to my own personal hell by a creature that cares for nothing but blood lust.
Time passes and finally my heart gives one last shutter of a beat. I stay lying on the ground, eyes closed, collecting my thoughts. After I stand, which I a strange process let me tell you. I have never felt something so odd, and yet it felt so natural. When I stand I take a look at surroundings. Everything looks so...vivid. The trees, the dirt. I can see a small ladybug munching away on the leaf it is settled on.
What do I do? Where do I go? Should I become as heartless of a creature as the one who bit me?
The fire returns the moment I think of what my plan for food was, only this time the fire was comfined to my throat. 'No,' I think. 'I won't become a soulless being by killing innocent people. Not after everything that we had went through to stop Voldemort. But how will I feed? I had read about vampires that did not feed for a long time. Eventually the blood lust became to strong and they wiped out entire towns.'
My thoughts are interrupted as I hear a twig snap behind me. I spin around to face who is behind to find a short, pixie-like girl.
"Hi," she says with a small grin gracing her beautiful features. "My name is Alice."
"Hello," I reply, still unsure of her. I stand their just looking at her for a moment. "You are a vampire," It came out as more of a question than a statement.
"Yes," Alice relies. "And so are you," she finished with a quiet laugh.
"But...your eyes. They aren't..."
"Red," she states, finishing my sentence.
"Yeah," is the only reply I can give her.
"Come on, my family and I can explain eveything," she says as she walks over to me. Grabbing my hand she leads me through the forest.
Vampires with gold eyes? I have never heard of such a thing! No one back home would believe this!
Whoa, wait a second. Did she say family? Vampires don't have families, they have covens. Well... This ought to be interesting.
AN: Hope you all liked it. Leave a review and tell me your thoughts. Have a wonderful day! Thanks for the reviews and story follows on the last chapter.
