Now that He Knows
Sky felt someone tapping him. "Sky wake up. Deadlox is here" it said gently. Sky hissed and opened his eyes. He saw TrueMU there. Sky squinted his eyes. Torches were on the walls. "Sorry about the torches. You can see but I can't," said TrueMU. "It's ok. Where's Deadlox" asked Sky. "He's at the entrance. Says he'd rather wait outside" said TrueMU. Sky nodded and jumped from the ceiling. A bat flew across the ceiling and on to his shoulder. It nipped his ear affectionately. "Hey buddy" Sky said. It squealed. Sky out it on his hand as it cleaned its wings. TrueMU was looking at it to. "Look at the Dilian" he said. The bat became spooked at TrueMU and squealed. The bat flew back on his shoulder. "It's ok, he's friendly" said Sky gently. The bat looked at TrueMU and flew over to him. TrueMU slowly put out his hand. It flew on it. The bat sniffed him, jumped and flew back over to Sky. It fell asleep on his shoulder.
Sky and TrueMU reached the entrance of the cave. The bat woke up to the sunlight, and looked at Sky with a "Your crazy" look. It flew back into the cave. Sky saw Deadlox, but he didn't see him. "Deadlox, here's Sky, this is what he looks like" said TrueMU. "Ok" Deadlox said steadily. TrueMU put the black carpet over Sky. They walked out of the cave. Deadlox jumped and said "No! You can't be Sky". "Ty I am. This is what happened to me" said Sky steadily. Deadlox looked at him and said, "You really are a vampire". Sky nodded. "At least you didn't see him when he was feeding. My god he eats like its his last meal" TrueMU said. Sky laughed and said, "It's true!" Deadlox laughed a tiny bit and asks "Do you eat blood?" "Well more like drink, yes I do. But only to animals" Sky said. Deadlox shivered a little. Sky put his hand on his shoulder and said "I know it's a lot to take in, but you'll get used to me being normal except I'll be drink from animals" said Sky to Deadlox. Deadlox nodded. Them thirst came creeping into Sky's mouth. It kept getting worse. He licked his fangs again. Sky looked around. "Uh Sky, what are you looking for?" asked Deadlox in a scared voice. "Animals" Sky said. TrueMU went over to Deadlox while still keeping the carpet over Sky. Sky sniffed the air and kept his hearing up. A snap came from a bush. Sky spun around and smelled a salty scent. Foam kept gushing into his mouth. The more the scent drew closer the darker and thirstier Sky became. Finally it was so unbearable Sky dashed to the bushes forgetting about the sun. All at once his skin became burning hot. Sky screeched in fury and pain. He collapsed to the ground. TrueMU came rushing over. He held the carpet out making a shadow over Sky. Sky looked up at TrueMU and smiled. But his thirst came to extreme. It turned from thirsty to parch. Sky hissed at TrueMU "Jason I need blood!" TrueMU looked at Deadlox and said, "Quick find an animal! I'll stay here". Deadlox nodded and dashed off. Sky knew TrieMU's arms were getting tired. He kept switching them. "Jason rest your arms," said Sky. "No Sky! You'll burn," said TrueMU switching an arm. "Jason, I'll find a tree to crawl under," said Sky. "I'll help you," said TrueMU. Sky smiled and crawled. The sun burned his skin. He dragged himself using his hands. The grass began to tear at Sky's strength. TrueMU picked up Sky's hands and helped drag him. Only one tree showed from the jungle on to the grassland. TrueMU dragged Sky under it. Sky said "Thanks Jason. If it weren't for you I'd be dead" said Sky. TrueMU smiled and said, "Anytime dude". Sky smiled but his thirst came back again. "I hope Ty finds an animal soon. You look really pale," said TrueMU. Sky nodded. A small part of him wanted to just sink his fangs into TrueMU's neck and drink. The part grew, as he got thirstier. TrueMU started a conversation. "So, do you like being a vampire?" he asked. "It's ok. I mean besides burning up in the sun and having to look for animals if your thirsty is the down part" said Sky. His thirst worsened at the thought of warm-blooded mammals. Soon a rustling came from the bushes. Deadlox came back with with a chicken under his arm. "Sorry man. I couldn't find any more," he said. Sky said "Its ok. Put it down. I'll do the rest". Deadlox put the chicken down and watched Sky walk up to it. He got on his knees and quickly sank his fangs into it. He put his hands on the either side of his head for support and drank hard. In one minute Sky got all the blood from it. But his thirst wasn't quenched. Sky looked at TrueMU and said, "I need more blood". His fangs wanted to sink themselves into more flesh. Sky looked at the jungle. "Sky hold up! You can't go in there in he middle of the day. You might burn," said TrueMU. Sky looked at TrueMU and said "Jason, I may die of thirst if I don't get blood, or I may kill you" said Sky. He looked back at the jungle. "What I need is a big creature. One with gallons of blood in it" said Sky. He licked his fangs, Sky was ready to strike his next victim
