She tasted so good. I hadn't got human blood for a long time.
I don't know why.. I only could think about Luna. Whenever I smelled her...
her smell was just the best I had ever smelled. I wanted to drink her blood.
But I couldn't. She meant too much.
We didn't even knew eachother well, but I could feel that we were connected.
And I still feel that. And we are. I've met her for a very long time ago.
The time that her parents died. The time that I escaped.
It was 1856. People screamed. The whole country was running for their lives.
Some people made it, some people died. The monster slowly walked to his victims.
I remember how he looked. He had long black hair. A grey suit and a stick.
It was a wooden stick. I didn't know why he took it with him. Maybe he couldn't walk without it, I thought.
'Kneel', he said smiling.
Everyone looked at him quizzically and nobody kneeled for him. He started laughing.
I didn't knew why he laughed. There was nothing funny about it, I thought.
But now I know why he laughed. When I kill someone, I laugh too.
It's just the feeling you get when you get your victim, and you know there's no way that he can escape.
When you pull your victim in a corner. He can not escape. The feeling that you're proud of yourself.
'I said kneel!' Now he screamed. He was angry. I had never seen a man so angry. And people slowly kneeled for him.
'That's what I'm talking about', he said proud.
'So here you all are. You stupid are all going to watch how I slowly kill all of you. Ladies first of course',
I had never seen a man so cruel and bad. It was a monster. The womens started screaming and crying.
'Well ladies, if you don't want to go first.. I'll just start with your kids'.
They screamed and cried harder. One women runned toward to him screaming: 'Please take me! Please! Leave my babies alone!'
He laughed again. 'Well, okay then, I'll just take you for example'. She was terrified.
He grabed her at her neck. His hands slowly spread around her neck.
'This, humans, is what I am going to do to all of you', he said, smiling again. 'And if you think about escaping, I'll start with you first'.
Everyone was still on their knees.
Nobody tried to escape and no one made a sound. But there was this one man.
He just sat down. He didn't look to the monster's way.
The monster let the women go, he only cared about the man. And he walked toward to the man.
'Excuse me, aren't you supposed to kneel for me?' The monster asked.
'I don't kneel for men like you', the man answered.
'Well, there are no men like me', he laughed arrogant.
The man just sat there. He didn't move, and it was like he wasn't even scared of the monster.
'So, you're really not going to kneel?'
"You will be able to take me, but I will never kneel in front of you, monster!" The man said bravely.
The monster grumbled, which made the people who still survived scream.
"Go away." The man was calmed.
That monster grumbled harder, very pissed off.
"KNEEL." His husky voice screamed, he extended letter 'e' for a while. He didn't smile again; now he was actually angry.
"If I kneel, you move along and leave my town."
"NO!"
"Take me! Here you have my soul, and leave the rest of my family, my friends!"
The monster laughed again, he almost fell down because of his hard laughs. But he was acting; he walked towards me –I was the closest to the man –still laughing out loud. He suddenly grabbed my arm and didn't laugh anymore. He took my neck, and his teeth touched my weak skin.
"Kneel, or you know what will happen with your friend." The monster said threatening.
I would like to scream and say something, try to change this somehow, but I wasn't able to speak, my voice was kind of off.
Man's face was panicked. He didn't know what to do while he stared at my eyes. I refused with my head, but he kneeled.
The monster separated his teeth from my neck a few inches only for laugh again. He was having a really good time.
"Stupid humans!" he laughed. "You think that you are heroes if you do something good, such if your soul can become purer!"he started to press my skin with his strong fingers. "You think you can save, love… live! You think you can handle time, you use words such forever, eternity or immortal, when you are the weakest."
And that was the last word I heard as human. Weakest.
I didn't know -and I don't yet -why the vampire didn't kill me like he did with the others. But he didn't, he choosed this lifestyle for me.
Weakest.
