9:55

All the skin on my back has burned.

All of the bare skin on my body has burned.

But some how, I haven't burned as fast as I normally do.

I have no idea what is taking so long

The pain is excruciating!

I know I have at least second degree burns.

It shocks me that no one has seen me.

Although, it's not like anyone is around.

I am at some deserted church.

Hanging from four pillars…

On meat hooks.

I have just about given up the will to live.

If Spencer has any sense she would have given up by now.

Kyla would have made her.

I hear a dial tone coming from the phone on my shoulder.

It goes onto speaker automatically.

Aiden was good.

"ASHLEY! Where the Fuck Are you!"

"Spence," I croak.

"Ash, are you alright? Where are you? What did they do to you? Kyla told me you were dead!"

"Spence, I don't know quite where I am." I forced my voice to get stronger for her. "But I do know that I am at some old church that is barely standing."

"Well there are only like 5 churches around here. And one of them isn't falling down, and we have already been to two of them."

"Hurry Spence, please"

"I'll be there baby, don't worry."

"I'm sorry Spence."

"Shut up Ash! I will be there in a sec. I love you!"

"Spence! Stay on the phone with me. I don't want to be alone."

"Anything Ash. Ok we are leaving the loft now."

"Don't bring Kyla. Please. I don't need her to see me like this."

"Why? What have they done to you?"

"Umm… I'm burning Spence. But I'm supposed to be dead now. And I honestly have no idea why I'm not a pile of dust on the floor."

"…" I heard her say something to Kyla about where to look for me. She sent her to the beach. "Ok Ash, she has gone somewhere else. Who where those people?"

"Some old friends of mine. I umm… I killed Madison's boyfriend, who I didn't know was her boyfriend."

"Are they Vampires as well?"

"Yeah. I turned them. They were dying and wasn't ready to let go of my best friends. I thought she had forgiven me for Jake. Obviously she didn't."

"I can get my dad to do something about them if you want Ash."

"No. It might lead him to me, and I really done want that right now."

"Alright, well I'm coming up to a church. Wait! Is that you? Hanging from those pillars." Her voice got angry and sad at the same time.

"Yeah. Yeah it is Spence."

The wind blew and stung every inch of me.

I screamed.

"Fuck! Ash, I'm coming as fast as I can!"

"No Spence stop!"

"What! Why?"

"Something's happened and I don't want it to hurt you."

"Ash, I know you are trying to look out for me but I'd rather be hurt than have you dead!"

I know my eyes have gone dark and hollow

I know my fangs have showed their ugly heads.

I know I have gone feral.

Although my thoughts are sane, I guarantee that I won't try and rip Spencer to pieces the moment I see her.

The moment I smell her.

"Please, Spencer."

The line went dead.

"Ash! Shit! You look like crap"

I start to snarl like an angry dog.

I can't control what I am doing

It's like some out of body thing.

I know what I am doing.

But all of my control has been lost

"Run!"

I saw the hooks ripping through my feet because of my struggling against them

"Spencer! RUN!" I manage to scream before my whole body drops from the hooks.

She's just stood there, watching me in horror.

I watch as I throw her up against a pillar and sniff her like an animal

"Ash, Ash it's me baby, its Spencer."

She placed a hand on my cheek.

I lunged for her neck but she pushed me away with all of her strength.

Usually I would be stronger than her but this has all weakened me

She realised this and took her chance to thrust me against the wall.

I screamed because of the open wound that was my skin

"Ashley, I know this isn't you, and I know what you need to do but I don't know if you will stop."

I watched as I squirmed under her grip

Her voice was soft, caring, loving.

She reached to the floor and picked something up, still pressing me against the wall.

"But I love you."

She stepped back and held a sharp rock to her hand.

I ran to the other end of the old church.

The smell of her blood reached my nose

I watched as I tried to resist it.

I couldn't.

She braced herself as I ran towards her.

I knocked her to the floor and sat in her lap as I sucked on her hand for all I was worth.

"I need more!" I panted.

She offered me her neck.

Everything inside me was screaming for me to refuse her.

But I watched as I latched onto her next an drained her of almost every drop of blood she had.

"Ash." She whimpered.

As soon as her voice registered in my ears, I got control of what I was doing again.

Slowly I pulled away from her and ran to a shaded corner that was still standing in the church grounds.

I watched as she didn't move.

My heart started beating in my throat as I approached her

I saw her chest rising and falling.

That's got to be good right.

Right?

I picked her up and ran with her

All my strength has returned and I have healed almost completely.

I led her on our bed and called Kyla.

Damn!

She is so pale!
