Chapter Four

Proof

"The last thing I tell you, you have to believe me. Promise me you'll believe me."

Confusedly Ashley answered, "I promise?"

"k. About what just happened to me. I had a vision…"

"A vision. What?"

"Stop interrupting. Yes, a vision. The man in my dreams is real and I know him."

"How in the hell. How do you know this man? I am so confused."

"I can't explain how I know him right now or how it is even possible, but the thing is he is coming to New York because of me. He is after me."

"k? I'm kinda' freaked out now, but tell me what else you have to tell me. I'm prepared and I promise I will…believe you."

"Ashley this is a very important secret and you cannot tell anyone or you risk my life." She paused. Then continued: "I'm…a…Nosferatu. Also know as a vampire."

Ashley started laughing, "What? You're a vampire. I'm sorry but I just can't believe it. That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard."

"You have to believe me. If you don't I can prove it to you, but I really don't know if I should. It might make it easier for him to find me."

"If you can prove yourself please do because I'm not convinced that you're a vampire."

"k, here I go." Her eyes changed quickly from deep brown encircled by white, to just pure crimson red. And her I-teeth pointed then grew about a half an inch longer into fangs. She now looked like a vampire. Then just as quickly as she had transformed she was back to normal. Her eyes were once again deep brown encircled by white and her I-teeth short and straight instead of pointed.

Ashley had fallen over in fright and Morgan was trying to help her up but she refused to take her hand. "Ashley take my hand. I won't hurt you I promise. I haven't…how should I say this…I haven't…fed myself for almost one hundred years. I swear I won't hurt you. Trust me."

Ashley reluctantly took Morgan's hand and stood. "I'm… sorry I d-didn't…believe you."

"It's perfectly fine. I just need you to keep quite about it and help keep me protected. You must. I told you because I trust you the most out of all my friends. Can you help me?"

"Yes, of course. Ho long do we have?"

"Well in my vision there was a half an hour till they reached New York. And it takes about 20 minutes to get here from the airport so we probably have about 25 minutes. What are we going to do?"

"The first thing is what are his weaknesses?"
