Sauli's POV
"Oh, I would. Isaac's my friend and I don't want him to be a fish. So, you better turn him back or you will have reporters and cops and tourists and all swarming around here and trying to find out what you've done to the people who disappeared." I said and just looked at the man into his eyes. I really wasn't that scared of him. I mean, yes, he was making my breathing a bit difficult, but I didn't let that bother me right now. I had to save my friend.
"Okay, okay. I'll turn him back tomorrow. And I didn't kill those people. They came to me and said that I was their last hope to get away from their wives, bosses, families, etc. They walked in here and asked me to turn them." The man answered and let go of my throat. I took a deep breath to calm down a bit and then leaned back to the wall.
"Turn them to what exactly?" I then asked a bit curiously.
"To animals mostly. And the people I turn will live forever if they want to. It's their choice."
"You mean they wanted to disappear? And that they wanted to leave their whole life behind?"
"Yes. That's exactly what I mean." The man said and moved to sit down next to me.
"Oh. And by the way, why are you telling me this?" I asked and looked at him.
"Mostly because you kind-of asked. And because I know that you won't tell anyone."
"How can you be so sure?"
"Because I can erase your memory about me and about this place just like that. But now, no more questions. I'm tired." The man said and yawned, showing his sharp fangs again.
"But I have a few more questions." I quickly said.
"No. Be quiet now." He said and got up and headed towards the couch.
"But.." I tried to say, but the man raised his hand and then moved it to left a bit without even looking at me. And at the same time, I felt my lips zip shut. No matter how many times I tried to open my mouth, it didn't work. I then just crossed my arms over my chest and stared at the man angrily. Though he either didn't care about that or then he didn't notice it, because he laid down to the couch and closed his eyes. I still just sat there and stared at him, waiting to get some sort of reaction out of him.
"Stop staring at me.. I can't sleep when I feel your stare burning a hole to my back." He finally mumbled after some time and turned to look at me. I just stubbornly shook my head, since I couldn't say anything.
"Oh, fine. I'll unzip your mouth so we can both go to sleep." He groaned and then with a swift move of hand, he unzipped my mouth.
"Thank you." I said angrily as he laid down to the floor.
"You're not even gonna say good night to me?" The man then asked with a grin.
"No." I just said as I turned around so that my back was towards him.
"Fine then. You don't have to. But it'd be polite, though."
"I don't care." I growled and closed my eyes.
"Okay. Whatever. See you tomorrow." The man said and then curled up on the couch and soon fell to sleep. I laid there awake for a while longer, wondering who the hell this guy was.
