Up in the highest towers of Millen Castle, florescent violet eyes glared down at the small town. For decades on end, Ivan would wait until sunset fell upon Millen; blanketing the town in mixtures of reds, oranges, and yellows. He would stand as still as a statue in Millen Castle's highest tower, glaring in downcast at the small fixtures and buildings littering the grounds. And for decades, Ivan would stalk incognito into the darkened streets, keeping a keen eye out for any potential 'prey'. Of course, as the years had gone by, the humans began to get smart. Often avoiding any trip through the town while the moon was high in the sky. But if the trip was proved to be crucial, they would resort to walking in pairs, making it difficult for Ivan to get a meal. But as sure as the sun would rise in the morning, one brave, näive soul would venture off into the darkness. And as sure as the sun would eventually set, said brave soul would belong to Ivan.
As the last sliver of sunlight diminished, casting a ghastly shadow upon Millen, Ivan could feel a humorless smile tug at the corner of his lips. The burning sensation ravishing the back of his's throat only grew as the sun went down, causing a snake-like tongue to drag across a pair of sharp, snowy white fangs at the thought of tonight's meal. The Russian vampire turned on his heels, mouth salivating slightly as he made his way down the winding, black Victorian staircase and to a pair of large, oat doors.
Ivan has been here for years. Decades. He's seen the same sunset so many times over, and the sunrise just as many times. The life he lived was full of pain and despair. Caught in his own pitiful thoughts, Ivan almost hadn't noticed the young girl tugging at his trousers. With a glare ready, he glanced over, only to see nothing but darkness. "эй, mister!" A small voice all but chimed out to the much older man. The glare quickly diminished, replaced with a curious, almost innocent look. Blinking slightly, Ivan glanced down at the young girl. She had cuts littering her small, fragile arms. Although weak, she looked strong willed, almost determined. Brown ringlets of hair fell on her scrawny shoulders, and bright green eyes, all though fixated on him, were far off and full of wonder. It wasn't so often that he saw such a small girl alone. Or one that spoke English. "Mister, do you know how much dangers are out here at night, huh? What if the Raven finds you?" The small girl almost glared at Ivan. 'Oh, this is going to be fun.' He thought to himself, a sly smirk tugging at his lips as he knelt down to the girl's eye level.
"Hmm. Da, but you should be worried for yourself, should you not?" The girl only stood there, a huff escaping her small, chapped lips. "Nyet. I have to get medicine for my брат. Therefore I have no choice." 'Hmm. This is new. I'll let this one slide..' Of course, Ivan wasn't always cruel and heartless. There were times where he let one live. "Why are you out here all alone? Do you not have parents to take care of your brother?" He asked with a questionable look, watching as the girls demeanor changed. He had hit a nerve. This girl looked to be about seven, and she was out here alone. Getting medicine. Judging from the girl's malnourished state and lack of guidance, Ivan came to the conclusion that the girl had no parents. "I do not need parents! Who are you to ask me all of these questions?!" She barked at him, anger clouding her features.
"How are you going to obtain this medication? From the looks of it, you can not even afford food." Ivan gave an icy smile, resting his chin upon the palm of his hand. Clenching her teeth slightly, the girl growled in a hushed tone. "Steal it. My брат needs it more than other people anyhow." Her arrogance was a bit surprising to say the least. "Stealing?" False horror sketched his face. "That is illegal, is it not? Maybe I should alert the authorities of your actions?" Ivan couldn't care less of the authorities, all he wanted was the look of terror in the girl's eyes. But alas, it didn't come. Instead, he was given a brave, almost heroic stare. "Da. Maybe you should." Instead, no emotion flashed in her eyes. He was a bit taken back by this, and even held a small shred of respect for her bravery. He had to thank her for humoring him. With a small smile, he reached into the confines of his pocket, pulling out 1534 ruble from his wallet. Ivan watched as the girls mouth fell agape, causing an arrogant smile to paint across his face. "Here. This should be enough to care for you and your брат." He dropped the money into the girls hand, taking note of the tears threatening to fall from her eyes. With a ruffle to her matted hair, Ivan stood before stalking off, hearing a the girl cry out faintly. "Большое вам спасибо, сэр! Я отдам тебе когда-нибудь!"
Deciding to just kill off a cow for the night, the Russian vampire stalked off back to Millen Castle to wait for the sun to rise.
