Chapter 2- Adjustments- Taker
It's a damn twist of faith. Of all the things that could happen to Kane and I… the least likely thing did. Goddamn it.
I was sitting alone in one of the locker rooms when I heard someone coming down the hall, my hearing could hear a pin drop in a business building, six streets down. I turned to see Vince walking in. He kept a poise look at it where and approached me.
"Mark… I need to talk with you"
"Yeah… you do"
Vince took a seat next to me. "I think we need to talk about what's happened to you… and find a way to change you back"
I smirked to his comments. "You honestly think there's a way huh? Funny Vince, very funny"
Vince wasn't laughing. "Damn it Mark, take me seriously. If Stephanie and Hunter were able to cure themselves…"
"CURE!" I snapped back. "They only passed it along. I am not going to pass it to some other person Vince. I would be no better than a damn vampire! Forget about it Vince. Kane and I will just live with it"
Vince didn't take to my answer. He stood up from his chair. "I will not let you two live like this, not now. Not ever!" with that spoken he stormed out. I on the other hand brought out the dagger I used to kill Cindy with. Her blood still covered the steel when I noticed something strange about it. The grooves in the daggers…. They meant something. I pulled out the blade to look at it some more when some vampire blood filled a crevasse of the steel covering… it tricked down and made the bloody images move! "What the hell" I whispered.
I was amazed to see a story unfold before me; strangely enough the story was of Kane and I. Yet the story ended when it came to Cindy's death that was at the tip of my dagger. Perhaps… just maybe, it continues onto Kane's.
I took hold of it and went to look for him. Strangely enough Kane was testing out some of the vampire superstitions with the guys. Garlic and all…. Why…. Don't ask. I don't try and figure him out anymore.
"Ok, catch the garlic!" called out Randy as he tossed Kane a large bulb of the stuff. Kane caught it with great ease and sniffed it. Nothing.
"Nope, dud. Next" he said.
HBK gave him a necklace with the cross on it. Kane held it and it didn't burn his skin. "Wow… vampire myths suck" Shawn smirked.
"Kane… We need to talk" I called out to him.
He excused himself from the guys and went to see what I had to say. I showed him my dagger and it amazed him. "Wow… a story coming to life on blood" he whispered.
"It continues on yours," I explained to him.
Kane pulled out his blade and we went to the rooftop for more privacy.
I allowed the blood of the vampire onto Kane's dagger protector. Strangely enough it was the same story on mine.
Kane however had an idea; he took out the blade and gently pricked his finger. He let his blood flow over Cindy's and like magic, the story on the blade quickly changed.
Kane looked to me in a stunned manner. "I think this is how we know what to expect next," Kane whispered. As we looked down on the blades seeing what it fore tells….
