Chap 3
Sin sat on the hood of the old Cadillac as I picked through the pockets of the dead ex-employee. Removing him was going to be fairly simple, as I was getting ready to grab all of the remains at once, Sin jumped off the hood of the car and said
"I got a set of pliers and a hammer to pull out his teeth so they can't id him thru his dental records. Are you gonna dump him in the Hudson? 'Cause I'd get rid of his hands too just in case he comes up fresh so they can't pull his prints."
"Sounds as if you have experience with this," I said with a cocked eyebrow.
"Of course, I dump bodies every night just for shits and giggles." Sin gave a lopsided smile, her tone could only be interpreted as sincere. Had I not seen the smirk I almost would have believed her words.
She was digging in her bag and pulled out the hammer as she walked over. I looked at her for the first time and really took in her appearance. She wore a black oversized hoodie, her legs were incased in naturally worn out shredded blue jeans that fit like a second skin and black combat boots that were worn and just as broken in as her jeans. Her dark brown hair was pulled back in a high, tight, ponytail and the length trailed over her shoulder to her waist in ringlets. Her skin was a nice mocha color, but the most startling thing was her large almond shaped violet colored eyes. They seemed to have a glow to them that was definitely not a part of the human DNA. She had full over sized lips, high cheeks bones and a small nose sprinkled with light freckles that only my eyes could detect; especially from a distance. On her right eyebrow she were two rings with purple and black beads, her ears were heavily pierced as well. Her form was petite, lean with the beginnings of curves.
The girl is attractive in an ethereal way, I thought as I took the hammer and looked down at the dead man's body.
"I will remove the head and destroy it before dumping it in the river, here take his keys they are for your new apartment and car. And take the money in his wallet and go to the bodega at the corner. Purchase two gallons of bleach. Destroy his personal credit card and ID as well." She grabbed the keys and wallet as I handed them to her.
"Also there should be a credit card for Viking LTD in there, keep it, I'll be back in 20 minutes." I wondered if the girl would suddenly gain some sense and run. Then again if she did run I would have to chase and then glamour her into forgetting everything that had happened. Although it would probably be wasted effort, since everyone would deem the girl insane if she said anything.
"Alright," she said as she walked back to her bag while pulling the cash and Viking card from the wallet. Slipping the Viking card into her back pocket she pulled a twenty from the bills and shoved it into the front pocket of her hoodie. I watched as she quickly counted the rest of the cash. When she was done there was a slow whistle that escaped from her lips, she looked up at me and waved the fan of bills, "There's nine hundred eighty bucks here."
"That's yours," I observed that her eyes dilated then narrowed and that there was a small jump in her pulse rate at my last remark.
"What? Why you givin' me this much cash?" I picked up the body with one hand holding it out at arms length as I began to walk away, "Consider it an advance on your salary." With that I used my vampire speed to get to the closest body of water quickly.
[Sin's P.O.V.]
Looking at the wad of cash in my hands I just shrugged and stuffed the rest into my bag, "Bleach time," I said to myself while throwing my bag onto my shoulder and headed to the park-aid.
As I entered the small shop I called out, "Hola` Mateo como` va?"
"Ta bien chica y tu esta bien?" Mateo, an older Hispanic male who owned the store I was currently visiting, asked as I walked to the back of his shop to greet him.
"I'm alright Mateo. How's the family?"
"There good. Mari just brought me dinner, there's too much here. Come have some chica."
Mateo was always trying to feed me, mostly because my first time in the store his wife Mari watched me stop a kleptomaniac from walking out of the store with some candy bars. Worst part, was that it was obvious that this bitch was rolling in money. I mean wiping her ass with hundred dollar bills rich.
I'll never get that shit...when you have all that money why the hell do you feel the need to steal? I steal, but only as a way of survival, and only from people who look like they spend their cash at Tiffany's.
Anyways...Mari heard my stomach rumble just after I told the bitch off,
"Take your thieving ass over to Sax's Fifth Avenue were they can afford your thieving ass," and she was nice enough to fed me. From then on it just became an everyday thing.
As I walked up and down the aisles looking for the bleach I said, "I'm kinda in a hurry. I got a cleaning job to get to, I just came to pick up some bleach and rags."
Thankfully I shut myself up before I could say anything that would get me in trouble. Like the fact that there is a dead mans brains splayed all over the sidewalk just a few yards from this store. Oh, but don't worry, it wasn't me, a vampire did it. I just found out that they're real. Yeah, I'd probably be locked up in a room with padded walls before anyone would even think of believing me.
I grabbed the bleach and rags and looked behind me to see that Mateo was making me a to go container.
"Hey that's great chica, I'm glad you found some work. You make sure no one try's to short change you. You have any problem getting paid you come get me and I'll set them straight, got it?"
"Si Mateo, how much?" I ask as he hands me the bag of food and I hold up the bleach and rags.
He points to the door "Nada chica, go make some money. Mari will be happy your not getting into trouble, she worries about you. Be good and come see me tomorrow so I know your ok."
I head out the door while thanking him and realized that there was another reason I had stayed in this area for so long. I liked having someone close who gave a shit about me.
As soon as I got back to the scene of the crime I started humming as I poured the whole first bottle of bleach out on the cement. All the way from the biggest spot to the tiny drops that had fallen as Eric walked away with the body. I opened the second one and poured the rest, still following the trail of blood until it suddenly stopped.
"That's weird. What'd he do? Sprout wings and fly?" I said laughing a little to myself when I felt a rush of wind behind me. I turned around to see that Eric had appeared out of nowhere.
"Close enough, but I don't need wings," he said observing my handy work so far.
"That must come in handy."
I watched as Eric's head turns to follow the trail of fading blood.
"Well, it would seem that you are not someone who needs the obvious spelled out to them. That should make our interactions easier. I will expect you to anticipate my needs from now on."
"That's fine, but don't expect too much; I'm not a damn mind reader. By the way I am almost done, just gotta get rid of the ID's and we're good."
"Just make it quick. We need to leave soon."
I pulled the guys ID and credit card out of my pocket along with my lighter.
It took a second for the fire to take, but once it did I dropped both of the cards to the ground and watched as the flames changed color slightly. Distracted by the beautiful display Eric slipped up behind me and wrapped his arm around my waist, while his other held my bag, which I had dropped earlier so that I could pour the bleach.
"Fuck your cold!"
"I am a Vampire." The next thing I knew we where in the air going, what could have been, two hundred miles an hour.
