Love lies bleeding

Paine Part 5. I'm back on schedule again yeay. good because I said I would do three chapters at once next Monday. This is the more off track chapter of what Paine did during part 5. After we last saw her being shot. Of course Paine is the only one who really knows what is going on during the story but that doesn't mean it will all make sense... yet. Also new outside character for this chapter of Bennie. The name came from the song Bennie and the jets. Well that's what you get if you make up a story listening to nothing but Elton John. I'll get on with it. Please enjoy.
Disclaimer: you know what I don't claim to own on this fic.
Recommended music: As I have it in my head right now I would say Border Song by Elton John.
Whoa what am I doing this is Rikku. RIKKU for fucks sake. I pull away from her. "Rikku!" She had already past out. "I'm so sorry Rikku." Her neck is still pulsing out blood as my love lies bleeding. She is still alive but she could only have a few seconds. I could save her? But I don't know what she would be like. Me or the old kind. I can't let her die though. I'm running out of time. I go back to her neck. Take another mouthful. Damn it dose she have to have such nice blood. I let the blood go back into the wound. What if she becomes the old kind. I would have to hunt and kill her. I don't want that she's too good for it. She's coming round. I Pull away. How can I explain this? This is going to be a very difficult conversation. "Rikku I can." I was about to say explain. But Rikku looked at me in shock horror and fear.
"Kad yfyo vnus sa!"(Get away from me!) She yells in terror and kicks me in the face. I suppose I deserved it. I pick myself up. "Yunie!" Yunie?... Rikku of course. Yunie? She looking for Yuna? She's running. I need to explain. I follow her out of the ruin. Rikku is running to Yuna. She had already found Yuna. Shit. I get hit by another wave of hunger. Fuck saving Rikku took all of my energy away. I can't follow them they may both be harmed by me. I turn to run away.
Several shots ring out. They all hit me. "Fuck." Fuck getting shot hurts. I keep going I need to make it safe. I run but I am hungry and bleeding. I choke on blood. Yuna must have hit a lung. I can't go far until I collapse.
The next day.
"I think she's alive." A strange voice comes near. "She's sitting in her own blood but I think she's alive." I open my eyes. And look up to a stranger. "You OK."
"I shouldn't be." I reply slowly.
The man backs away. "Holly shit." He stands there stunned. "What's with the fangs?"
"What?" I question. I check my teeth with my tongue. My fangs are currently extended. I realise that I can still taste my blood in my mouth it would explain why they're extended.
The man stands there Petrified. "V v v v v v v."
"Vampire?" I answer for him. And try to stand up. It hurts to. Why aren't I healing? I check myself over. "No wounds." I look back. He is still standing there to scared to move. I choke on blood again. "Must have a bullet lodged in there."
"Why am I still alive?" The guy asks.
"I don't know? Why are you alive? I collapsed through hunger. I should attack the first person I find." I question myself. Pain courses through me again and I wince over at it. "Stupid fucking." The guy leans down to help me out.
"Your not going to attack me are you?" He asks.
"No." I reply.
"Here." He hoists me up and helps me along the road. Why is this guy helping me as soon as he realised what I was he was terrified.
"What's your name?" I ask curiously.
"Bennie." He replies.
"Why are you helping me Bennie?" I had to find out what could make a person want to help what can be described as a parasitic demon.
"You looked like you needed it." He replies.
"Pretty bad reason to help a vampire." I go on. Bennie takes me to a house just off the road.
"Here I can't help you with lodged bullets but I can give you everything I can." Bennie explains.
"Thanks." I choke again. I catch my blood in my hands. "I need to sort this out."
"Is there anything I can get you." He offers.
I could always cut it out. "Uhh a knife and a bathtub."
He looks at me in a very repulsive fashion. "You're not thinking?" He asks.
"Yes I am." I reply quickly. "Don't worry I can heal." I try to reassure him.
"Knives are in the kitchen bathrooms upstairs." He lets me go ahead. "By the way what's your name?" He asks. Well I suppose it's his right I got his name.
I walk trough to the kitchen and search for a knife. I tell him "Paine. With an e on the end."
"Huh Paine the vampire how appropriate." He gives the usual smirk to my name. Most people do but not most people know I'm a vampire.
"Oh thanks Bennie." I say as I walk past with a knife. I go up to the bath room. It was perfectly clean shame I feel kind of guilty thinking it will be covered in blood. I choke on my blood again. Well there is reason behind it I suppose. I get into the empty bath and pin point where the pain is. "Oh god." I say just before inserting the blade. Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck. Blood flows out. I manage to fish out the bullet. The bullet hits the bath but I go light headed from the blood loss and pass out.
I come to still in the bath I had to feed. I get out and walk out the door. I can hear someone down stairs. I creep down to when I can see him. He was just standing there open for the taking. He looked at me. "Paine?" He recognised me but wasn't running. He was an easy target. I flew across the room and into him knocking him to the floor. In the surprise I sank my fangs into his neck and claimed his blood. I am hit by pleasure and satisfaction as I drink his sweet blood. The wonderful trance consumes me as I finish all he could give.
His heart stops and I back off. my fangs finaly retract. "Whoa. No. No no. Bennie. Aww fuck." Bennie was dead. He helped me and all I could do was kill him. He didn't deserve it but I couldn't control myself. I just flew at him. "I just flew at him?" What I shouldn't be able to fly. Unless. I've progressed. That makes sense it would explain why I hadn't been hungry when I woke up. Rikku. I actually managed to convert her successfully. Shit she needs me. She won't know what the hell's going on. I have got to find her.
I walk out the house. It's night? God how long was I lying in that bathtub. I walk around trying to find Rikku's thoughts. It was kind of hard considering I had never done it before. But when it got close to daybreak I noticed something.
'She bit me.' I get an image of me biting Rikku from her point of view. The poor girls having a flash back or nightmare or something. I figure out her location she is above me clearly in the airship.
I try to contact her. 'Rikku. Rikku. Don't panic Rikku. Rikku.'
'Huh?' She can hear me.
'Rikku listen.' She just needs to stay calm and pay attention.
'Paine?' She thinks with a clear uncertainty.
'Yes. Rikku you need to pay attention.' Despite everything I actually expected her to want to pay attention.
'Paine!' Fuck she's scared.
'Rikku please don't panic.' She just needs to stay calm.
'Get away!' No that's the reaction I don't want.
'Rikku you going to be dangerous on your own.' I keep trying to warn her.
'Leave me alone!' This isn't going well.
'This has never been done before I need to make sure you are OK.'
'How are you doing this?!' Rikku asks clearly unsure to what is going on.
I don't have time to explain now. 'Long story.'
'Get away from me!' But I need to help her
'Rikku I need to help you.' This clearly isn't going down well.
'Yunie. Paine. Tell me you could hear her.' She's asking Yuna she's going to sound mad.
'Why what's wrong with me?' Is Rikku really clueless to this? She doesn't know. 'Pale skin. Red eyes. Silver hair.' She really has been converted 'Oh my god what's happening to me.' Damn it I need to explain it to her but she won't take my help. 'Help me Yunie.'
No not Yuna she will only get hurt I'm the only one who can help her. 'I can help.'
'Go Away!' I can't she needs me. 'No not you.' She obviously tells Yuna. 'I'm hungry.' Oh shit.
