Ch.6 Truth

Everything around me went dark and limp. My hearing and vision was fuzzy. Priest held me now, against the wall lifeless, whispering things in my ear that I couldn't understand. I only felt his warm breath against my skin. I began to shiver as he caressed the side of my face again. He moved his face against mine and a quick wet flick of his tongue went across where he had bitten me. The next flick was slower. He was cleaning after himself. Soon he began trailing kisses down my neck to my collar bone, causing my breath to quicken. I tried to move my arms, wether to stop him or… I didn't know. It was as if he had paralyzed me, possessed me. I was helpless. Suddenly he stopped jerking his head back with his fangs bared in a snarl. It was as if I had burned him. He let me go and ran to the window, jumping out of it with a crash that was only a dull ringing in my ears.

I slid down the wall unable to hold myself up without assistance. I could fell blood begin to run down the side of my neck and down between my breasts.

The room spun fast in circles. Everything turned grey then black.

I slowly opened my eyes. A blinding light coming from above me caused me to squint. I looked around at my surroundings. My hand was held over my eyes for a shield against the light. I frowned as I recognized the white walls and Winnie the Pooh border that went around the hole room.

It was a hospital.

Rodney sat in a chair next to me, asleep. On the table, which was next to my bed, there was a nurse pager, vomit pan, and a pair of my close. Just the thing I was looking for. Slowly sitting up I swung my legs over the bed. The sooner I could get out of this paper towel I was wearing and get into my close the better. Or not. I winced as I pulled the tube to my IV. Rodney stirred slowly opening his eyes. He sat up instantly, aware that I was awake.

"Hey, you're up. Are you ok"

I stared at him, "Does it look like I'm ok?"

"Jeweliah I'm being serious," Rodney scolded.

"So am I."

"What the hell happened in there?"

How was I going to put this? Well I was asking him some questions and then he vamped out on me. Probably be best to just lie through my little teeth. Nah… with holding information sounds better. Right? Shit.

"H e just attacked me and I guess when he heard you guys trying to get in he split and jumped out the window." That sounds more sane don't you think.

"He just attacked you," I nodded, "just like that," I nodded again.

Rodney glanced at me for a long moment, "What did he use to puncture your neck with?"

I didn't say anything.

"Jeweliah?"

"I don't know."

"Alright I'll see about getting you out of here."

"Thanks." Rodney headed toward the door. He had his hand on the handle when he turned around.

"By the way did he talk, answer any of the questions"

"No." He gave a sigh while opening the door and walking out of the room.

After about three hours of tests and specific instructions to stay home I was able to leave. Finally go home. Then maybe I could take this damn bandage off my neck. The thing was two times bigger than was necessary. Maybe I just needed a big nap. Who the hell knows. I just wanted to get home.

We (Rodney and I) pulled on to Maple and took it to the Houghton apartment complex. Mine was the third building, room 3J.

We took the stairs. The Cold stone under you feet and the echoing of your steps gave the spiraling stair way an eerie aura. I found it comforting though. It kept me on my feet and alert. A good awareness in something no one should be without.

Once we got to the right floor we went through the door and down the hall to my apartment.

"You want someone to stay with you. Just for tonight."

"I'm a big girl. The boogey man comes though

I'll be sure to call you."

"Yeah alright. Just get some rest and remember your promise. No work for a couple of days," I opened my mouth to protest but Rodney held a hand up silencing me.

"Don't worry, I'll keep you posted on the case if we get any breaks."

"I really appreciate it, Rod." He only nodded and reminded me once again to keep cool for a couple of days before heading down the hall. I opened my door and walked in, shutting the door with my foot. I flicked on the light switch and Giles hoped down from his spot on the arm of the red couch and pranced over to me.

"Hey Gi Gi." I sat my shoulder pack on the back of a chair at the dinning room table. I turned back to where Giles was to pet him stopped dead in my tracks.

A man, broad shouldered and wearing a dark muscle tank was sitting on the couch. His arms spread behind him to rest on the back of the couch. He had dark brown hair or used to. Now it was bleach blond and it looked like it had been a Mohawk at one point but now it was grown out considerably. He turned his head slightly to look at me out of the corner of his eye then faced forward again.

"You're tough to find," the man said in a deep, menacing voice.

"Good to know. Who the fuck are you and what the…,"

The man got up and fully faced me. His cold blue eyes promised pain and death. He had a hand gun pointed at me waist level.

"Now I'm here for some information and I think you know what will happen if you lie to me." I think he could of just said Don't test me, bitch and I would have got the message.

"I'll ask again. who are you?"

"That's none of your fucking business. Now about that information."
