Walking through Texas these days is quite different to how it used to be. Due to the increasing amount of deaths, everyone is scared of everyone else. Everyone carries their bags ever so closely to their stomachs, protected tightly. And this was all because of Maria, and her murdering streak. It was at least one person per week. It was amazing.

We continued down the street, and she told me to sit and wait at a bus bench. She pushed onward down the street, walking directly towards a man. I heard their conversation well, though it was short.

"Hey babe." She said, locking her arms around his neck and kissing the man roughly. She pulled away, he was stunned. "Should we go somewhere more private?" Being a man, he immediately responded with a nod. Maria turned towards a dark alley, and ordered for me to follow.

I stood slowly, following her as ordered. Though I followed her slowly, by the time I turned into the alley, I was able to see this mans last few moments of life.

His hands were on her thighs, her skirt lifted up slightly. Her hands were on his neck, squeezing rather tightly. The males head was nested in her neck, kissing her roughly. Maria looked up and saw me, faking a moan. I was frowning heavily: this was a lot different to my, or anybody else who I'd seen Maria kill, death by a long shot. She grinned at me, and I felt her restraint, and the pain she was feeling in her throat. She found it difficult to restrain his scent, and killing him now.

That was when she pushed her head into his neck, baring her teeth. She bit him, moving her hand up to cover his mouth as she did. My eyes widened as I grew near. The male moved his hands from her thighs, and to her head, trying to pull her away. Maria's eyes caught mine as she feasted. She motioned towards his arm. I grabbed his arm, and bit into it, how James had done to Bella the first year her and Edward were dating.

As this mans blood trickled into my mouth, I groaned, and I heard Maria chuckle lightly. I clenched his arm, wanting more of his blood.

"No!" I heard the man scream through Maria's hand. It was hardly audible as he was rapidly losing blood. "Plea..." He said again, as I moved to his neck and Maria moved to his other arm.

Maria pulled away, leaving me still clinging onto this male, still sucking out his blood. He was trying to cling on to life, but I wasn't allowing it. I sucked out the rest of his blood from his neck, and then pulled away. His eyes were heavy, drooping. Maria was still connected to his wrist. She pulled away, and looked to me.

She kissed me, gathering a stream of blood that trickled down my mouth in the kiss. I kissed her back. It seemed this bloodlust made me feel for her. The kiss soon ended, and I walked towards the man.

"What next?" I said, kneeling beside him. "What to we do with the corpse?"

"Make it look like an animal attack, snap his neck, completely drain his blood, and dump him somewhere quiet." She said grinning.

"Oooh…" I said, taking his head into my hands. I ripped his head to the side and a loud snap erupted through the alleyway. The sound made me grin.

Holy crap. Human blood is making me crave destruction. Making me drunk with power… I like that…
