"Kira, truth or dare?" Rory asked me as we sat in Ethan's living room playing a game to pass the time until Jacuzzi Time Machine came on.
"Dare!" I replied excitedly.
"I...dare you to...karate flip Ethan!"
"Rory! No way! Ethan's too..nerdish...and skinny, I'll break his bones if I did!" I laughed back to the blond across from me.
"C'mon! You have to! You're the one who said dare!" Rory complained.
"What's your obsession with people and karate flipping?" Sarah asked him. "So far, you've already asked her five times to flip somebody. Everyone except you."
"She's the only one here who can! And I want to see it, not experience it."
"Ok, fine. If I do, will you promise me you will never ask me to flip someone ever?" I told him.
"Promise!" Rory stood up and walked over to the couch. "Front row seat for this."
"You'll be close enough," I grumbled walking behind him. I grabbed his left arm and flipped him onto the hard wood floor.
"What was that for?" He asked getting off the floor.
"Never said any name in specific."
"Five minutes!" Benny walked in from the kitchen carrying a giant bowl full of popcorn for his favorite movie.
Everyone walked over to the couch and sat down. Ethan and Sarah sat on one end, while Benny and I sat on the other. Rory on the floor below the couch. The movie started then and everyone got quiet.
Suddenly, Jane yelled from upstairs. "Sarah! I'm bored!"
"I thought she was asleep." Sarah sighed as she got up to go upstairs.
"I got it." Ethan said. As he walked over to the stairs, he grabbed the couch arm that my hand was resting on as he fell on one of Jane's dolls.
As soon as his hand came in contact with mine, his eyes turned white and he snapped into a vision. When his eyes returned to normal, he gave a nervous glance towards me.
"Smooth one, E." Benny laughed as Ethan got up off the floor.
Once his best friend was turned back towards the TV, Ethan nodded his head for me to follow him into the kitchen.
I hopped up off the couch and walked into the kitchen after Ethan.
"Kira," He started to say as he saw me. "I- I had a vision. Jesse was about to bite you."
"So...you're saying I'm going to become a vampire?" I said nervously.
I couldn't be a vampire. No matter how cool immortality is, it was one of my greatest fears to become a bloodsucking creature of the night. Plus, I had my two nerd friends to worry about.
"I don't know, it didn't show you actually being bit, so if anything like that does happen, Benny and I will try to get there in time." Ethan spoke, snapping me back into reality and out of my horrible thoughts of my vampire self.
"How will you know, though?"
"I'll probably have another vision."
I nodded.
The two of us walked back to the living room. I plopped down on the couch next to Benny again and watched the movie the rest of the night.
After the movie, I waved bye and walked back to my house. I was cold, so I threw on my jacket, which not only shielded me from the cold but covered my neck, making me feel a little better walking down the street at night.
Suddenly, there was a gust of wind. My hair blew in front of my eyes, but I still saw a slight glimpse of a shadow.
"Kira...join us..." It was only a faint whisper, but I still heard it.
I glanced around quickly and started to walk faster. I was only a minute or so away from Ethan's house, and maybe two from mine. I turned the opposite direction, and glanced around again.
Suddenly, the wind gusted again, but this time someone stopped in front of me. He had short brown hair and bright blue eyes, also looking around seventeen. The man smiled, revealing fangs embedded where normal teeth should be. I knew what he was, and what he was here for. Me. But why?
He stood in front of me, blue eyes glaring straight into mine. I had been prepared for this, Ethan had told me it would happpen, and that he would try to stop it. But neither Benny nor him were here right now and I was about to be bit.
Run! My mind screamed, but my legs wouldn't move fast enough.
Down the street, a door flung open and two people stepped out. Benny and Ethan!
The vampire turned around, and seeing them running towards the both of us, acted fast. He opened his fanged mouth wide and bit into my neck.
A sudden pain rushed through me, along with a cold feeling. I fell to the sidewalk, suddenly losing feeling in my legs. My vision blurred and my hearing deafened. All i could see was Benny's face as I fell into blackness.
What did you think of Chapter One? Good? Bad? Tell me whatever you want, I'm new to writing so constructive criticism would be helpful. =P
Thanks For Reading!
