Her hunger started to become unbearable.
Weiss thought that the food having no flavor was the result of either the venom or the medicine that had been pumped into her veins for three days straight. But something strange started to happen as well. Food she ate not only lost its flavor, but it refused to satisfy her. Even hospital food, which would taste like cardboard, had lost its flavor. Weiss also felt a paining thirst all day. She constantly drank water, but the thirst became even more persistent, maybe even worse.
"Geez ice queen, do you want to make the toilet your new bed?" Yang questioned jokingly.
To Weiss however, this was no laughing matter. She could not quench her thirst and also couldn't satisfy her stomach, which had hunger pains by this point. She did not want for her friends to worry so she decided to not bring it up in her conversations with either the doctors or her teammates.
"Weiss, what's wrong?" Ruby would constantly say. Ruby must've been smarter than she was letting on.
"I'm fine."
Weiss did appreciate the brunette's concern for her. Ruby had been doing these movements for some time now. Ruby would always ask her if she needed help or if she was okay. Weiss began to suspect there was something more to Ruby. After a few hours of them talking to Weiss and telling her of what was going on at Beacon academy, the P.E system announced that visiting hours were now over.
"See you tomorrow." Ruby said as she was the last to leave the room.
As the sun sank behind the clouds, Weiss hunger and thirst pains grew even worse. She would silently groan in pain to prevent the doctor's suspicions to grow. When it turned nine o' clock though, Weiss pains grew unbearable. She couldn't begin to think clearly. As she sat in her bed trying to understand what was going on, a nurse came into her room, possibly doing her daily rounds. The nurse did not speak as she adjusted the window and curtains, pulling them back and showing the stars and moon to shine through. What happened next, Weiss couldn't begin to explain.
Her vision went red. Literally, everything radiated a dark red glow to them. Even Weiss's own hands were a bright crimson. Weiss began to smell the type of copper coming from an unidentified source. She must've known it was in the room somewhere. When she looked at the nurse though, it was like Weiss's body lost all control. Her mouth started to salivate and she licked her lips with some form of anticipation. The nurse had her back facing Weiss. Weiss slowly but surely started to get out of the bed and picked up a small fruit knife she used to cut some of the fruit the doctors had given her. Her footsteps quiet as she sneaked up behind the nurse. With her right hand, she quickly grabbed the nurse and covered her mouth and with the other hand she started to stab the knife into her back. Weiss tried everything in her power to stop the brutal attack, but it was like her body was on auto pilot. The nurse let out muffled screams of pain as the knife left her back only for it to get stabbed into it again. Blood now covered the knife and Weiss's hospital gown as the nurse fell over. Weiss couldn't keep count of how many times she was stab.
She watched silently as the nurse took her last breath.
Weiss now had full control over her body. She looked down at the result of her murderous impulse. Weiss slowly started to back up and drop the knife. She ran over to her room's bathroom, threw open the toilet and retched. As she vomited into the toilet, she felt hot tears streaming down her cheeks. She had killed the Grimm without any second thought, but she had never taken a human life before, much less an innocent life. As Weiss finished, she walked out of the bathroom to see a shocking sight.
Her windows had been thrown open and standing over the body of the nurse was the hooded figure. The figure's face was concealed by a hood. The figure then looked up at Weiss.
"Well hello Weiss Schnee, we meet again. I honestly hoped it would be under much more pleasant circumstances."
The voice sounded familiar.
"Wait, you're the man who came into my room and gave me that blood." Weiss concluded.
She honestly hoped it was all a dream. She would wake back up in her bed and her friends and loved ones would surrounded her and tell her it was all a bad dream. But the man simply put his head down, as if he were ashamed of something.
"I am sorry I have cursed you to this life. But you must feed. I know you have suffered pains all day."
"How did you…"
"I have been in your position before."
"Feed on what though?" Weiss said her voice cracking.
"I think you know."
Weiss looked down at the nurse's body on the floor but focused on her neck. She proceeded to bend down her body on auto pilot once more. She placed her mouth on the nurse's neck. Weiss tried to stop herself, but then she bit down and felt blood gush into her mouth. Weiss tried to pull back. The blood tasted like iron and copper, but then the flavor changed. It now tasted like sweet honey. Weiss was mortified at her actions but she continued, as if she were a newborn baby sucking on its mother for the first time. Weiss pulled back as she looked at the woman's body, now pale and emancipated. She was a…a…
"Vampire." She uttered the word.
She had read stories of the blood-suckers but never thought that they were true. The man simply nodded his head.
"I am sorry." He said.
Weiss kept her head down, not wanting to look at the man. The pain in her stomach and throat were gone.
"Sorry? Sorry?!" Weiss said, her voice rising.
"Weiss, you must feed again, but do it tomorrow night."
"How do you know my name? I will kill…" She turned only to see that the man was gone and so was the body. Weiss looked on the counter of her bedside and saw a letter and a new hospital gown.
'Dear Weiss Schnee, I have sorry I have now condemned you to the life of a blood sucker. I have left you a new hospital gown to change into. I believe the doctors would be rather suspicious if they were to see you in your current state. I have a friend at Beacon who might be able to help you I will contact him soon. But for now, tell no one and hunt only at night. Also, get some navy blue cloaks for when you're hunting at night. Also I suggest you hunt down criminals. It's much easier. Sincerely, V.'
At Beacon Academy
Ozpin sat at his desk calmly sipping his coffee as his scroll rang. Ozpin picked it up and was meant with a rather familiar voice.
"Professor."
"Hello Vlad. I hope you are doing well."
"Ozpin, we need to talk about one of your students."
Ozpin listened with great intent.
A/N: And with that, this chapter brings an end to the flashback. Who is this Vlad Character? How will Weiss deal with being a vampire? And what will happen next? Stay tuned.
To Manticore-gurl071134: Thank you for your continued reviews. As for the food having no flavor, I thought it would be a side effect of being a vampire. I have no idea what log horizon is but that comparison must be coincidental.
Don't forget to follow, favorite and most importantly, review. It will help me become a better writer.
Have an Awesome day!
