Chapter 11 : Vampire 101- Bloodlust

Alison. My sweet, sweet little Alison. We've found the crystal; it's only a matter of time now. You have one final chance to join us Alison, or someone those two geeks know will die tonight. I'd check the geek's room if I were you.

Everyone had worried looks etched on their faces, they quickly left the room and shut the door behind them. They started to go up to Justin's room, the house was still empty and night had fallen in Knightwood Bay. "How long were we in there for?" Benny asked as they climbed the stairs.

Justin barged into his room hoping to find someone; the three stared into the room until they saw something outside on the balcony move. Justin and Benny quickly went to see what it was. They swung the doors open and saw an almost lifeless, badly beaten-up Ozzie on the floor in agony.

They got Ozzie to his feet and supported him on their shoulders while walking towards the room. As soon as they stepped foot into the room Ozzie slammed into an invisible force and fell backwards in the process. The two boys not knowing what happened tried again with force only to have Ozzie wince in pain as they tried to force him into the room. Alison took note of this and put two and two together.

Ozzie not able to sustain the burning sensation flitted backwards against the edge of the balcony and fell to his knees. His head was down as he tried to regain his strength, he looked up at the two boys who were confused as his eyes flashed between blue and golden yellow while his fangs peered out. The two boys jumped back at what they saw, their friend Ozzie was a fledgling.

Ozzie felt ashamed at the monstrosity he has become, he saw as his two best friends jump back in fear at what they saw. Was Jason right? Would they hate me? Am I a monster?

Ozzie was questioning himself holding back tears that threatened to fall; he was debating whether to stay or run away, far away from the people he cared about.

Justin was the first to approach Ozzie on the balcony with the newly acquired knowledge of the boy. He helped him up motioning Benny to help carry him in.

"Come on in Ozzie." Justin began, "Benny help me carry him in." They set him down on the futon and questioned him.

Ozzie wasn't expecting this from them; Jason had told him otherwise, that they would vanquish him the second they knew what he was. Alison stood there watching the three, she was happy almost because they tried to help their friend through something like this. She had hoped Erica had done the same or rather that she was able to help her friend.

"Ozzie, what happened? You went AWOL yesterday." Justin asked the shorter blonde.

"Yeah you weren't in school, which is stranger even for you dude." Benny added in.

Ozzie was still out of it, the bloodlust growing as every second past. His wounds and cuts weren't healing because of the lack of blood. Ozzie began telling the three how he ended up being a fledgling. It had started when he left his house Friday morning.

"I was walking to school when this guy came up to me and began talking to me. He said something about a party he was throwing later that night and that you two were going to be there." He finished while pointing at them, "At first it sounded impossible, but somehow I was convinced and decided to ditch school. I went to GamerTown and after that it was all a blur."

Alison asked, "Who turned you and why?"

"Jason did, I woke up later that night with the sudden urge to drink blood." Ozzie answered her.

"You drank human blood?" All of them said at once and Ozzie nodded in disagreement. Alison sighed in relief but was still worried because the bloodlust is very hard to keep in check.

"When I woke up I wanted to because my throat was on fire. I wanted…No I needed blood, but something stopped me. More like someone, Jason did something with his eyes and the bloodlust stopped." Ozzie told the three and Alison was now even more worried.

"A fledgling needs blood within the first twenty-four hours or their mortal body starts to give out!" Alison stated to the three as the two boys turned back to Ozzie.

Ozzie was coughing from all the talking, his throat was burning with the need of blood, but Ozzie shook it off. Benny questioned why he looked badly beaten.

Ozzie recalled the memory and winced in pain as the thoughts came rushing in.

Jason was watching Ozzie adjust to his new life, he had plans for this boy and he was sure it would work.

"Vampire 101, you need blood." Jason spoke to the newest fledgling, "Too bad that isn't an option." He smirked as he grabbed his shoulders. He looked at Ozzie who was terrified beyond belief, "You will starve until its time."

Ozzie complied with Jason's orders and showed no emotion, he had been put in a trance. It was only a matter of time until the bloodlust got too strong that he could possibly die.

Jason snarled as he flung Ozzie against the wall of the room. Ozzie was about to run towards the exit when Jason appeared in front of him and pinned him to the wall. "Why would you want to leave? They're not going to accept this new you. In fact they are going to despise you, you are a monster." Jason taunted him and threw him towards the stairs.

Ozzie's body was starting to form bruises as he received another blow to his abdomen. He winced in pain and struggled to stand up. Jason picked him up as he taunted him again, "You may not know this yet, but this town fears and hates vampires. Your friend's families have secrets of their own. And one of them is hatred towards the creatures of the night. They will vanquish you the first chance they get."

"I don't care what you say, I rather die than betray my own friends." Ozzie spat back at the older male. Jason furious snarled and slapped him across the room, sending him flying towards the pool. He flitted towards him as Ozzie flew in the air, he jumped up and caught him by the neck and slammed him into the pool causing water to fly everywhere. He flashed out of the pool while holding Ozzie by the neck, "Your death would be too easy." He dropped Ozzie soaking wet on the pavement, "I actually have plans for."

Ozzie was on all fours coughing the water out of his throat, "What plans?"

"You will soon find out." He smirked as he flashed into the house dragging the blonde boy with him still coughing water.

"A few hours later he sent me with someone here." Ozzie coughed out, as the two friends felt really bad for not being there or looking hard enough. Ozzie reassured them it wasn't their fault; if someone was to blame it was Jason.

"So, Alison what exactly happens if he doesn't drink blood?" Justin asked the brunette.

"I'm not going to make it complicated." Alison began her explanation; "He is going to die, if he doesn't get some kind of blood in him."

Ozzie looked really out of shape, from having dealt with Jason to not drinking blood he looked very malnourished. And that was an understatement, Ozzie's skin had shriveled and his bone lines were visible around his face and hands, his hair looked lifeless and dull. He was weak and was beginning to cough more frequently it was beginning to cause Ozzie pain. Alison flew out of the balcony doors and was back within seconds with a squirrel.

Justin and Benny were grossed out, but if it would help their friend then so be it. Ozzie hesitated for a moment, he looked at his two friends and they nodded at him. Ozzie's fangs slid out and he sank them into the animal he was holding. When he drained the animal of its blood he wiped his face using the backside of his wrist. He was starting to look better, his hair regained some of its protein and shine, and his skin was returning to normal. The bruises were taking the longest to heal, what came next surprised the trio.

Ozzie's hair was loosing its shine again and his skin was shriveling back into the bones, he looked like a mess again. The blood did not work for him; he got the burning sensation at the back of his throat again. His eyes flashed to golden yellow and he started to cough again. The coughing sounded a lot more painful to the three in the room. Justin reached out his hand to comfort the blonde boy, but Ozzie hissed at him before he flashed to the balcony and jumped off onto the front yard of the house.

Thanks for Reading!

What does everyone think so far? What's the deal with Jason and this "rock"? Is there a bigger purpose than Jason is leading on?
