Chapter One: A Dark Romance
The girl ran through the damp street, breathing deeply. Every breath she took was painful, the wind scraping at the dryness of her thought. She looked back. Out of the fine mist the silhouette of the beast appeared. The girl screamed. No one was there to hear her. Her legs burned with pain, nearly depleted of energy, only adrenaline pushing her forward. She was a beautiful girl with fair skin and long brown hair. Her eyes green and glowing, they were filled with fear. Dirt soiled her face and clothes... she could no longer even remember how she found her way outside that night. She checked behind her once again. The shadow was gone, yet she still kept running. Then she slid on thick mud and dove into the ground. She stood quickly and looked around. There was no one to be seen, no shadow in the mist, no breath in the air, no sound on the ground.
"Good evening." She jumped at the sudden sound coming from behind her. She turned and there stood a tall dark figure. Her eyes grew large in fear the beauty seemed to drain from her face. "What do you want from me?" the girl asked, her voice was shaking tears began to form at the edge of her eyes. "For starters I would like to know your name." the figure said "Briana..." she started to cry... "Stop, you don't need to fear me. I will take care of you." The voice spoke in such a beautiful tone, so clear and deep and caring. Briana began to relax; her heart which was beating wildly began to slow down. The tall figure began to walk towards her, it reached out and embraced her beautiful yet fragile frame. She looked up at the figure, it was a beautiful face, yet prominently masculine. He had long white hair that fell around his shoulders. His body was so cold but as they embraced Briana felt relaxed, she felt warm inside, she felt... happy. She stared deeply into the man's face. "Come, Briana." The man spoke, "tell me how you feel..." she became dazed, mesmerized by the beauty of his voice. "I feel, warm, love..." she replied, she began to fall in love with this man's face. She was 18 years of age yet she has never felt anything like this, this much passion. She leaned towards his face, closing in for a kiss. The man arched down and met her lips into a soft gentle kiss. His lips were cold and pale but she did not notice, nor did she care. They stopped for air and kissed again, each one growing in passion. The man began to kiss the line of her jaw. She tipped her head, exposing the fair flesh of her neck. The man kissed her neck and ran his lips across it. Then he spoke, "You must leave now." "Why?" she asked. "I want to stay with you, you make me feel safe." she said. "You are so wrong, child." He answered. "No, I'm staying with you." Briana said, kissing the man's cheek. She could not think. Her mind, clouded by a dark shadow, seemed to want this man more. She pressed herself closer to him. "Very well..." the man said, as he placed his lips over her neck once again. He opened his mouth thinly bearing his teeth, white and smooth. His canines increased in length, sharper they became. Briana was in no way aware of this, romance had filled her thoughts and she became drunk with the feeling of false love. The man pressed his fangs into Briana's warm flesh. A shot of pain flushed through Briana's body as the man dug deeper into her neck, she did not know it but the fangs of the man had gone straight into her veins. A feeling of panic replaced that of romance. Fear once again reigned her head. The man, no, he was not a man she thought, had begun sipping at her throat. She could feel the blooding rushing out of her veins and into the things fangs with every sip. She tried to struggle but her body would not allow it. She was still wrapped in the beast's embrace. She tried to scream, nothing but air. Then it stopped. The warmth of her blood flowered over her neck as the thing released the grip of his fangs on her. She stared into its face; she spoke weakly, "Vampire...". She glanced at his eyes, and like rain washing away the dirt on the earth its eyes seemed to drain the fear from her, it replaced the fear with the blind passion that caused her to fall into this trap. "Yes," it said, "I am, and as a show of kindness I shall give you a choice... should I embrace you or feed on you?". Confusion pulled at both ends of Briana's mind. A part of her knew that to become 'one' was to live an endless life of passion and thirst. Either way she knew she would never see sunlight again. "I do not wish to be turned..." those were the last words that she spoke, darkness flooded her mind and heart and she felt no pain, and no light followed.
The girl's body was found in the alleys deep in the town. She had been completely drained of blood, yet save for a small browning stain on her collar no blood was to be found. "It's killed again." Sheriff Relish said as he stood over the body, a small group of people had begun gathering around the corpse. "Everyone will board up their houses tonight, crucifixes at the ready." Relish announced as he left the scene for the town morgue to pick up. He mounted his bionic horse and trotted away.
