Remarkably I landed straight on my feet. Laughing joyfully I looked at David. The realization dawned on me. It was impossible for any human bean to be able to accomplish that feat and land on there feet, as well as survive!
Walking backwards away slightly from the boys, I stared them each in the eye, one by one. "You. Need. To. Explain. Something. Don't. You?" I said taking another step back with each word.
And with each step I took backwards they took a step forwards. "Yeah. We need to show you something. Follow us."
The boys made there way up the hill, where faint rock 'n' roll music could be heard. I followed them, making sure there was just enough space in between us, so I could keep my focus on all four of them. I watched as they walked over the hill, I stood on the hill, watching the scene below me. There was about five or six tents all around a small bonfire. There was lots of girls and boys dancing and singing.
The boys faced me and laughed. Their faces changed, to fanged, yellow eyed beasts. Before they pounced on the awaiting crowd below and attached themselves to the necks of the party goers.
I stood there on the hill, transfixed to the spot. Both fascinated and disgusted. The smell of fresh blood so alluring. I felt my face beginning to change. I felt my teeth prick my lip and I licked the blood off.
"Come, join us. Become one of us." Dwayne called from the midst of blood and guts.
A cold wind blew my hair around me and I screamed, coming to my senses. I ran, ran all the way till I couldn't run any more. Then I collapsed, lost in the shadows.
A voice ringing though my head, one day, you have one day.
I woke up the next day, wearing the same clothes I had worn the day before. My shirt was covered in dirt and my skirt was ripped slightly at the hem. I was only wearing one shoe, and had obviously lost my headband.
Everything came flooding back from the previous night as I stared upon my dirty reflection in the full length mirror. Turning towards my window at a loud noise, I backed away until I found my black ray bans. Shoving them onto my face, I quickly shut the blinds. I was a vampire.
As I was searching my face for any appearance changes, my door was thrown open and Sam jumped into my room, Nanook close in tow. He jumped on my bed, with his cheeky grin. "So, you must have been really sick to be able to have sneaked out of the house and gone to the board walk last night and not come home till the early hours of the morning?"
"Oh, so you noticed that huh? And what time is it exactly?" I said worried he could see something that I couldn't, like I was half invisible or I had bright red eyes.
"Yeah I noticed, everyone heard you get home last night. You were practically screaming. I'm telling you it was kind of scary. Um, time wise it's probably about 4:50." He said checking out my old comics that were lying on the floor.
"I was screaming?" I didn't even remember getting home last night.
"Yeah, 'One day, I have one day'. What do you have one day for sis?" he said his expression giving me an idea why Curiosity killed the cat.
"Not really sure, you sure I was entirely awake? Maybe I meant something like one day left before I have to face Michael's stinky breath… or one day left till the TV guide comes and I cannot watch TV… I don't really know, sorry little brother." I was positive they were nice saves and I hope Sam couldn't see through them.
"Uh. Okay then. Well I'm taking Nanook to the board walk, do you want to come with me?" He asked, hopeful that we would get to spend time together.
"Yeah sure, just let me have a quick shower and get changed. Out!" I laughed and pushed him and his giant dog out of my room.
Once I was all dressed and ready to go in blue leggings and a red singlet, I headed downstairs to find Sam. He was in the garage with Grandpa, they were getting out of the car.
"Where did you guys go?" I asked, because Sam was here less then 20 minutes ago.
"Oh hello Autumn, nice day!" Grandpa replied before shuffling into the house. I turned around and watched him, maybe one day I would help him find his marbles.
"We went no-where A, he's insane!" Sam said with a role of his eyes. "So, how we getting to town?"
"We're taking my bike dummy!" I replied as if it was completely obvious. "Jump on the back bud and make sure your dog, doesn't scratch my baby."
Once we were all secure and I and made sure my precious Harley had no scratches from the previous night, I rode it straight into town, towards a comic book store that Sam gave me directions for.
