Chapter 5 - Feeding
Night had fallen hours ago. They stood in the shadows, barely making a sound, anticipating their next victim. Both dressed in dark clothes, their eyes matching, they leant casually against the wall of the alleyway, peering around the corner every now and then to spot their prey. They weren't disappointed.
A middle-aged man staggered his way down the street, obviously drunk, and came to a rest near the alley, one hand on the wall for support. The two people came out of the shadows, gripping his upper arms.
'Let us help you,' came a woman's voice. 'Your in no state to be walking alone by yourself.'
'Aww, thanks love,' managed the drunk, his voice a thick English accent. 'I knew holidaying here was an excellent idea.'
'Your on a holiday?' the woman replied excitedly. 'So…you don't know anyone around here?'
'Nope.'
'Excellent,' she hissed, and they led him around the corner.
A loud roar erupted through the air, followed by the mans merciful screaming. Blood splattered the walls as the mans screaming ceased, as his body became limp, the two figures leaning over him. The woman produced a knife, slicing the mans chest open, beckoning her friend to complete the task. His hand steadily plunged into the wound, and when he ripped it back out, he clutched a heart, and presented it to the woman. She took it happily, letting it drop with an echoing squish into a container.
'Now we feed,' she said simply, and tipping the man slightly so the blood ran, drank thirstily. 'Try some.'
The other figure, slightly hesitant, bent down, and drank a small amount of blood. He pulled back slightly, as if shocked by what he had done, but as a feeling washed over him, he clamped back down, draining the man completely.
'Tastes like vodka,' he laughed harshly.
A scream met their ears.
'WHAT ARE YOU DOING!'
Their heads shot up, eyes somewhat glowing, and they sped after the woman who had witnessed their foul act. She never stood a chance. As one fed off the blood, the other looked around slightly, and a streetlight hit his face. It was Dean.

Sam stirred from his sleep as light hit him and he felt the cage moving up out of wherever he was. As it jolted to a stop, he blinked at the brightness of the light, his eyes not adjusted after so long in the dark.
'Did you have fun Sammy?' mocked Katie, kicking the cage in disgust.
'It's Sam,' was his response through gritted teeth. 'Where's Dean?'
As if on cue, Dean sauntered though the door. Sam's jaw dropped slightly at the sight. Something wasn't right…Dean looked…different.
'Did you miss me?' Dean mocked, his eyes flashed brightly, before returning to the black colour they had been before.
'Is that…is that blood?' asked Sam in disbelief. Dean touched the corner of his mouth, and red appeared on his finger.
'Yeah, it is,' he said with a grin, wiping his face with his sleeve.
'What do you think your doing!' cried Sam in horror. 'What are you doing to my brother!'
Katie smiled, an amused expression on her face.
'Do you know what happens when a human drinks human blood?' she asked. 'They change; they turn wild. And do you know what happens when a human, eats a human heart?' She held up the container that held two bloody hearts. 'They change form. They turn into monsters. Look at Dean…he's helped drain two people and he's already hungry for more.'
'Can't I have just a little more?' murmured Dean, staring at Sam hungrily.
'No Dean, you've had enough. You need to go sleep now…it'll help.'
Dean growled slightly, but left the room.
'It's just you and me Sammy boy,' Katie said. 'Won't this be fun?' She unlocked the top of the cage.
'Get out.'
Sam struggled to his feet, his legs wobbly from being so cramped for so long, and with slight help from Katie, clambered out.
'Move.'
They left the room.
