Hi! Well, beyond this chapter, I have no idea what to do. I would very much appreciate ideas. I've read so many vampire stories and books that the only thing I can come up with is a mixture of it all. So please, if you want something written, tell me. Here's the story.
The captured boy woke to the quiet murmurs of unknown beings. When he was closer to consciousness, he was able to make out a mystified statement:
"He's even more beautiful than when he was human..."
With that comprehensible sentence, the no longer human teen woke up.
His eyes fluttered open and the shock of not knowing where he was made him bolt up. But it seemed that the sudden movement was too much to handle and he was overcome with nausea and dizziness and immediately laid back down.
Riku, noticing the distress of his prize, handed him a glass full of a red substance.
The brunette answered with a quiet "thank you" and gulped down the entire contents.
Once he was finished, he looked up innocently at his captor; lips stained and a small smile on his face. "This is good. Can I have some more?"
Riku chuckled at his adorableness. "Of course, my darling."
The boy blushed slightly at the use of the pet name but gladly took the refilled cup.
'He's so trusting', Riku mused. And indeed, the cerulean eyed beauty was more trusting than a homeless boy should be. 'That cup could have been poisoned or drugged or who knows what. Well, at least he's under my care now.'
Once the cup was finished, the brunette asked what it was.
"What else, blood", he answered.
"What!" the boy exclaimed.
"Blood." Riku stated this as if it was the most natural response in the world.
"It can't be blood. Blood doesn't taste that good."
"It does when you're a vampire."
"That makes even less sense. I'm not a vampire."
"Yes you are. I blooded you myself."
"You're joking." The boy was obviously stunned.
"No. I'm not."
"I'm... I'm a vampire?"
"Yes."
"I'm a vampire?"
"Yes, a vampire."
"A vampire?"
"Yes, you are a vampire." This was becoming quite frustrating.
"So, I'm a vampire."
"Must I say it more slowly?"
"I'm a vampire! A monster! I kill humans and eat babies and rape people and--"
"You've never killed anyone, we do not eat babies, we are not monsters, and not all vampires rape people."
"But some do, right?"
"So do some humans."
"So? I'm a monster. I drink blood."
"And what's so bad about that?"
"I'll have to kill people."
"Not necessarily."
The young fledgling dared a hopeful look.
"I could kill them for you", he continued.
"But someone would still have to die!"
"Humans kill animals everyday. Sometimes for no reason at all."
"Vampires eat humans!"
"Humans eat animals."
"Animals are not human!"
"And humans are not vampires."
"But--"
"You must understand that vampires kill for food. Just like humans."
"Not all the time."
"Humans kill each other needlessly as well. It does not matter the race, it is the individual!"
"I don't want to be a vampire!"
"But you are!"
"I never asked to be!"
"Neither did I!"
"What?" The statement seemed to baffle the unfortunate boy.
"We must leave. The rest of the clan left during that useless conversation. You are weak, you need to feed. You don't have to kill tonight, but drink you must."
"Why?" was the sorrowful answer.
"Would you rather die?"
"Yes."
"Would you rather die a monster?"
There was a slight pause before a response was finally given. "No..."
"Then come."
And so they left; a vampire prince, and a miserable fledgling.
Well, how did you like it? Remember, I need ideas for the next chapter. I won't write unless I get ideas and at least two reviews. Please review me. Please.
Oh, and I want to know if I should start my other story. To tell you the truth, I like it more. It's a Sasuke/Naruto, for those of you who know who they are, and it's also a vampire story. But there's a twist to it. So, if you happen to think that I should write it, please know that it would take time away from me updating this story. It's up to you.
