4. Children of the damned
But it didn't last very long until Sarah opened her eyes again!
She sat up slowly and looked around.
Her view fell on her friends, which lay lifeless everywhere on the ground.
And she also saw the both vampires, which watched them with curiously and expectantly glances. When Sarah stared at both condescending, she noticed that Hannah beside her moved as well and her view fell on her friend, who really sat up and looked around with a confused glance.
Then the glances of both girls met and they understood: they were bitten by the vampires, they drank the blood of the vampires and now they were vampires too!
With a groan Alicia also got up and held a hand to Catherine, who was next to her, so that she could stand up. Catherine nodded silently, took it and looked at Alicia shortly, before she turned around to Sarah and Hannah.
"Alicia... Alicia..." Michelle murmured.
She opened her eyes slowly and would also get up. But she still was too weak. That's why she sank back again.
"Michelle. I'm here." Alicia said softly, kneeled beside her sister and took her hand.
There Michelle looked up, directly in the eyes of her sister and she knew right now, what happened with them!
So Michelle also got up with the help of her sister. Then the girls looked at each other and then they suddenly turned to the other both vampires, which stood in the corner and watched the scene until then.
They all stared at each other a while, until Alicia interrupted the silence with a shaking voice, "What... what have you done? What have you done to us? Why?"
Brian smiled as answer. There he bared his teeth. Catherine turned around disgusted. She wouldn't see these teeth, because she had them now, too.
The unknown boy answered, "You already knew, what we are. But now you're the same kind as we are.
You'll wander on earth and cause death, as we do! You know how!
You'll create new ones of our kind, as you like.
I was with a great wizard, who taught my some spells. So also the called 'daze glance' I kept you prisoner with before your transformation. This wizard gave me the power to create a group. A group of 7 companions: the '7 deadly sins'.
He gave me 'greed' as sin. That was the condition of my work. I could create all of you only that way! I must own all of you!
And so I created you, all of you! I created Brian, who carries the sin of 'lust'. The lust to torture, the lust to kill... and now I created you!
And there we are complete with that! We all form the '7 deadly sins' from now on: we're 'greed' and 'lust' and you are 'pride', 'envy', 'sloth', 'gluttony' and 'wrath'. We'll call us now like that and cause death among humans. Like our nature demands!"
With these words he pointed at each of the friends: Sarah, Alicia, Catherine, Hannah and Michelle.
"Don't fight against it. This wouldn't be any use for you. You have to realize sooner or later that you couldn't do anything against it. So you better adjust yourself quickly in your destiny.
And something else: the characters of the sins weren't given you just in random.
You'll soon be the sin itself and only act according to it. You personify the sin." Brian explained.
"We'll go now. But we'll come back, rely on it..." After that the unknown vampire turned around to go.
Brian followed him. And as soon as both were coming, they disappeared again.
