Dangerous blood chapter four
Ally closed the door of her room and sat down on her bed waiting for him to start explaining the story. She was very curious about it really, he didn't strike her as a person who would want something like that. Becoming a vampire must have been a hard choice for him but maybe it was the only choice. That's rubbish, we always have another choice. Prehaps it was death or eternal life. However you put it, there are always more options. So why did he take this one?!
" I'm guessing you want me to tell you how I became... What I am " He started, quite unsure in himself actually. She nodded her head and so he went on " Well it all started a long time ago in a town near London... "
***** Flashback Near London,1611 *****
" Oh brother, I swear you are going to get yourself killed some day " Austin's brother said and Austin just laughed. " And if so does happen, I wish for myself to go in piece ". Aron rolled his eyes and stood up " No! If so does happened mother would kill me and then I'd be stuck with you for whole eternity in Hell. I'm good, thank you very much! " Austin let out a soft chuckle and stood up on his feet next to his brother. " Well alright then brother, I'll try to stay alive for you " He spoke and his voice was full of sarcasm. Aron just shook his head when they heard a scream come from outside. They shared a look, before running outside to find their sister looking in front of her at a boy, not much older then Austin. Well by looks anyways, but by mind he was over two centuries older.
" What did you do to me?! You killed me, h-how can I be alive? " Amelia spoke up scared. Then her eyes opened wide as she stood up on her feet. She was shaking of fear that was taking over, scared of what she had became. Her gaze didn't leave the boy in front of her, she didn't want to miss any move he made. Instead she just spoke " Aron, Austin get back inside ".
Austin, due to being his stubborn self, shook his head and walked over to his sister " Not going to happen, I'm not going to leave you out here with... " His gaze flew to the boy and then back to his sister. Austin had no idea what was going on, his sister was different, but he had no idea about vampires. Aron knew what Amber had become, he knew everything about vampires and in fact was the one trying to get vampires to leave town. But now that his sister had become one, he had no idea what to do. He just knew his brother could get himself killed by getting involved.
" Austin, I think Amelia is right. Get over here! " He told Austin, who was now even more confused then ever. He had no idea why his brother wouldn't look after their sister who was in trouble. Even though Aron was always overprotective over his family, and especially over Amelia. What changed?
" Aron, I can't just- " Austin started but Aron cut him off while going over to him " Austin, this is important, you have to get back inside! ". Austin, just kept his eyes still on his brother, not doing anything else but trying to figure out why the change had happened. Aron waited for his brother to do something.. Anything... But nothing happened. He didn't want to waste any more time so he just pulled his brother back inside the house by force. If only Austin wasn't so stubborn and had to fight back and escape his grip. He ran back to Amelia and stood by her side. He wasn't going to let anybody hurt her. However what he didn't know at the time was that Amelia was way stronger then him now, but the other boy was even stronger.
The other boy, the vampire other known as Jermy. He decided that it'd be best to use Austin to finish the transition. If Amelia drank Austin's blood, she'd fully become a vampire. So he grabbed him and bit his wrist. Austin screamed in pain as Jermy sucked out some of the blood out of his system. He had no idea what was going on but knew he was way out of his head. As Jermy let go of him and pushed him towards Amelia, he stumbled and hit the ground. He mumbled something to himself while groaning in pain. " Drink! " Jermy ordered Amelia and she looked at him like he was crazy.
" No, Amy don't! " Aron yelled as he stepped outside. " Aron don't leave the house! " She screamed at him. He knew she was right, if he went outside Austin wouldn't be the only one who Jermy was holding against Amber so he stepped back inside. " Fine! Just, help Austin get back in! " Aron told her and she nodded. She knelt down next to her brother and looked at him. Austin was scared, no doubt there, he had no idea what had just happened he just knew his wrist hurt terribly and that something changed. Something big and important. " Austin just go inside, and stay there! " Amelia told him and he nodded. He stood up covering his wrist, which had blood dropping from it by now. He was going up the steps slowly and carefully but got pulled of them by Jermy who pushed him back on the floor using his vampire speed that made him go almost as fast as the speed of light. Austin groaned in pain once more as he fell on his back. His gaze quickly scanned his surroundings looking for his sister. But she was out of sight. He closed his eyes trying to focus on anything but the pain. It wasn't really working out though. His wrist was killing him. He knew he was losing loads of blood, but had absolutely no idea what to do about it.
Aron on the other hand was watching his brother and sister without any idea what to do, he was clueless. He saw Amelia fighting the urge to drink every droop of blood in their brother's body and he saw Austin lying on the ground, groaning and yelping in pain. He saw him roll over every once in a while and try to get up, but fail at it. Aron was trying to think of a way to help them, but his mind seemed blank. There was nothing he could do if he stayed inside so instead of hiding and letting his siblings suffer, he ran outside and knelt down next to his brother. " Austin, please tell me you're awake " He said while shaking his brother. Austin moaned lightly, and shivered in pain but spoke out a simple yes as well. Aron carefully helped his brother get up and lead him up the steps toward the front door. He pulled him inside and let him collapse on the floor. At least he was safe inside.
Aron went back outside and looked at Amelia " Can I invite you in and be sure you won't hurt Austin?! " He asked her and Amelia nodded her head. " I could never hurt my own brother " She spoke out and he nodded " Alright then, Amelia please do come in ". Amelia used her new speed to get back inside and gasped as she knelt down to Austin only to see how he had lost loads of blood. She didn't know what to do, there were no nursing homes around and if he lost more blood then so he would die. She looked at Aron, who was kneeling opposite of him " What do we do ". Aron was more experienced then she was, well he wasn't really experienced more like informed about vampires.
" Give him your blood, it should heal him " He told her and she looked at her wrist. She bit it and blood floated out of it. She quickly pressed her wrist against Austin's mouth. Austin had no idea what was going on but he didn't want to drink blood so he tried to fight it. Amber huffed while Aron hold Austin so he would stop trying to escape " Austin, trust me! Just drink it " Amber told him and Austin fought it for a few more moments.
After he finally gave in and drank it he felt his wrist quickly healing. He opened his eyes again and sat up looking at his wrist. All he saw was dry blood. He was confused as hell.
" What? How? " He asked looking around. " Let me start from the beginning. Remember last year how dad made me go to the council meeting with him?- well it turned out he wanted me to become a part of the council. And what they do is hunt down.. Vampires! And no Austin I am not messing with you, this town is crawling with vampires and our dad is a part of the team that is stopping them and now so am I. " He looked at Amelia " How long have you been hanging out with that guy?! ". Amelia let out a loud sigh while avoiding her brother's gaze " Not more then a month ". Aron sighed and hugged his baby sister " Don't worry, we'll figure something out "
***** End of Flashback *****
" And so my brother explained everything to me " Austin said looking at Ally " Well almost everything. He left out some stuff back then. Like how Some people from the council wanted me dead- "
" Why did they want you dead?! " Ally cut in. Austin let out a sigh, remembering what happened " I told you my dad was a part of the council- Well he switched sides after Aron joined it. He never told Aron why he did it, but instead of saying that Vampires should be exterminated out of this town, he suddenly started saying how they belong here and how this is their home. And that was why other people on the council thought they need to get rid of My dad's whole blood related family by killing them. But they didn't because they saw nothing wrong in us, so... They killed my dad. And one year later or a little less, Aron changed his opinion just like my dad and started voting for vampires to stay unharmed due to my sister being one herself. That's when they decided to kill us... My mum died that night because Amelia couldn't save her, but She had time to warn us and made us drink her blood- "
" Why did she make you drink her blood? " Ally questioned, interested. She found his story very fascinating, but terrifying as well.
" Because if you die with vampire blood in your system, you will come back as a vampire " He said and continued telling his story " So after she made us drink her blood she hid and so did we. But it wasn't long after they had found us and killed us, both. Two days later we woke up far away from this town. Amber had brought us as far away as she could considering it wasn't so easy traveling back then. When we woke up it was the weirdest thing ever, I felt hungry for blood and I couldn't really hold it back. I have no idea how Amelia did, but that's how I became... What I am " Austin wined up. He glanced towards Ally and his eyes met hers. She was looking at him not knowing if she should be scared or relieved that he was a vampire. She was actually scared and relived in the same tame. Scared cause he was a vampire, thirsty for blood, and relived cause he told her everything and if he wanted to kill her he would have done it by now.
" So there you go, now you know " He told her. She looked at him, remembering all they did together " Do vampires have to be invited in?! " She questioned and he chuckled. " Yeah, they do " He told her. " And are you going to kill me? " She asked and looked at her. How could he lie to her, he needed to protect her until the red moon then kill her. He licked his lip and looked away from her and out the window. " I'm trying to protect you " He whispered into thin air. It was true, but not the whole truth.
She kept quiet. Oh yeah she trusted him, but something about that answer made her feel unprotected all of the sudden. It scared her how unsure he was about saying that out loud. Oh, he was hiding something and she, of course, was getting at the bottom of it!
