Chapter 11: The Traits of a Monster
The bell rings as the students in the school head out for lunch. Boys and girls scattered to go to the cafeteria to get there lunch or to go to a spot where friends can hang out. With all the students out of their classes, Lucy and Haiku head to the school library. The two Goth girls look around to see the librarian simply reading one of the library books behind the counter and a few students just reading as well. The Goth girls walk to a different section of the library to hide themselves from anybody.
The two Goth girls made their way to the back of the library in the E-L sections of the bookshelf. They both look around to see if the coast is clear. With no student or staff around they say sat down on the floor with their leg cross and Haiku opens her backpack to pull out the book. The Goth girls open the cover page to see curve writing in the first page.
"I'm this book; this will explain the voodoo legends known as the Blood Suckers. These races of vampire like monsters have been existed since the 1500's but they have been close to extinction. There isn't a known number of how many is left, but there is a way to bring more back. More can be transforming by a magic dagger that will curse any normal individual with dark magic and the blood of previous sacrifices. The victim must be stabbed three time; on the chest, stomach, and head. Then victim will change to a Blood Sucker."
The girls flip the page to see drawing of such creature. In the first stage that the monster with only hang four sharp fangs with red eyes, the skin pale, and they won't be able to see their reflection on mirrors. In the next stage, the teeth will become sharper; the eyes will be surrounding by dark circles. They flip the page to show the next stage, as the teeth are sharper and their eyes are completely dark with red pupil. Their skin will look rotten and their senses will be extremely max. In the page the author wrote something at the bottom.
"The creature could only changes these stages of they have not consume many blood as it needs. The body will begin to rotten if no blood has been consumed or it will begin to lose blood."
"This very intense and scary to see this kind of vampire, yet this is what I must have expected from a vampire," said Haiku as she continue look at the page.
"This is a vampire this book describe, so this mean my brother is-"
"What happened?" asked Clyde as he appears behind Haiku.
The two girls were surprise to see the boy already here with them without them knowing.
"How did you-?"
"I learn it from you," said Clyde as he gigs Haiku. "So what did you guys find out about this book?"
The two girls look at each other with a worried expression.
"Girls?"
"Clyde, I think my brother is... a vampire."
"A vampire?" said Clyde in confusion. His friend can't be a vampire... can he?
In the basement, Lincoln silently cries while his face was smeared with blood. He cry as he look at Lisa continue to cut open his stomach. His blood leak from his body to the table before it was dripping to the floor. Lisa with her lab coat and black gloves on continue to cut her brother open. The stomach was torn off to reveal Lincoln's small and large intensive, and show his stomach. Lincoln grunts his pain to miss the portion of the skin, yet his skin was quickly flowing back. Lisa watch in awe while Lincoln wishes it was a sick twisted nightmare he was in.
"Unable, your healing is far more superior to humans," Lisa whispers before she looks for something else to use.
"Lisa... Please stop this... I'm your brother," he quietly spoke, weak from the amount of blood on his body.
"Oh Lincoln, I wouldn't do these kind of experiments to you, but you are no normal human. You are something far greater than man, and I must commit these experiments just to know more of what you have become."
Lincoln looks at the ceiling not wanting to see what else Lisa will use to play mad scientist. Lisa then brings out a motor saw and turns it on. The saw roar alive with Lincoln clenching his eyes with tears running down his cheek, prepared to take the incoming pain. Lisa aims the saw towards Lincoln's body and was being the saw down to his chest.
"Don't worry Lincoln; everything is going to be okay. I'm just going to continue to observe your body and its newly functions and it will be done in no time," said Lisa with a sinister smile to begin cutting her older brother.
Blood begin to spread everywhere; from the walls and floor to the ceiling, the little scientist and her brother. Lincoln shut his mouth as he was screaming in pain. His arms and legs were shaking. Lincoln wish he could just break off from the rope and push his little sister off, but he was in a weak state.
"This was your fault Lincoln. You should have accepted who you are now and live like how you suppose to do," whispered the voice as Lincoln really wishes that this moment wasn't real.
But of course, this was real as the pain was unbearable as Lisa was very close to cut his organs. The scientist stops cutting him and look at his organs and rib-cage. She sees that every organ was functioning well. The lungs were inhaling and exhaling oxygen, his intensive was finishing their process to move waste of whatever Lincoln has ate, and everything else was alive to function. Everything was working, except for his heart. Lisa move close to observe his heart. His heart wasn't beating or bumping blood. She like at the heart which cause Lincoln to help.
"Lisa, please don't do anything with my heart. I need it to stay alive," he said weakly.
"This is incredible Lincoln!" exclaimed Lisa. "You are still alive even though your heart isn't pumping. Your organs continue to function for you to at least consume food and breathe, yet you should be dead without your heart functioning, yet here you are the tie on the table and able to heal fast. I may not know what happened to you when you were missing, but you are far greater than a human."
Lisa watch as Lincoln begins to heal his wound. His skin was reappearing and covers his organs. Lisa touches the new flesh and feels how soft it was like any regular skin. Lincoln opens his eyes and look at himself. His body was still stained with blood while Lisa put the saw away and looks at him with a cheerful smile.
"Thank you Lincoln for this excellent experiment, I couldn't do it without-"
Before Lisa could finish congratulating her brother the basement door opens. Lisa looks up as a figure was approaching the stairs. She looks around to see blood has stain most of the basement and Lincoln was tied like a lab rat. Lisa was scared as she would look like an insane person who used science as a reason to treat Lincoln like a lab rat to be used and abuse before it dies. The person walks down to the basement to witness the horrifying sight.
