Nicky dropped the shovel into the hole next to the girl, "that's what you get bitch" she said spitting onto the unconscious girl "fucking kidnapping mind voodoo shit" she rambled, Nicky looked up from her grave the sun began to peak over the tree tops. She turned and faced into the sun it's warm glow was a comfort this hellish day was over bound and gagged, force fed blood, stabbed, burritoed in some sheets and brought out into the middle of no where to what looked like being buried alive. "Weird cult bitches" She thought, but her relief was short lived as the beams of light touching Nickys skin started to burn she screamed and jumped back out of the suns rays, suddenly she dropped downwards into the hole she forgot was behind her. She landed with a loud thud, her fall cushioned by the body of the other girl "what the fuck was that?" Nicky exclaimed as clutched her burned hand but the pain almost instantly subsided and then it was gone, she looked at her skin to find the reason why but saw nothing she was completely healed. "Whats happening to me?" Nicky said staring at the impossible sight her own hand was presenting her, after a few hysterical moments Nickys minds turned to escape "if i just get out of here everything will be fine" she said reassuringly. Jumping up Nicky grabbed onto the ledge of the hole and began to pull herself up out of the hole she quickly brushed grave dirt from her clothes and scanned the clearing looking for something useful.
As Nicky looked around the hole for something useful Nicky noticed something, the clouds overhead were beginning to break and more beams of light poured into the clearing. At first Nicky tried to ignore it but some part of her told her to fear those beams it told her to run from them it told her to jump back down the hole where'd she be safe, and as the clouds continued to break and Nickys time eventually began to run out she made a snap decision and jumped into the safe darkness of her own grave.
A slamming door awoke Katherine from her sleep, she felt as if her entire body was a open wound still fresh, a graze with debris still stuck in the damaged flesh. Nadia, Katherine was conflicted she knew her daughter didnt mean to harm her Nadia didn't know anything about herself and Elena, but the feeling of betrayal stung just as bad as if she did. But Katherines love for her daughter was second to one and if she could never have her love Katherine would not lose her daughter. "Nadia?" she called out into the penthouse "you here?" no answer Katherine slowly dragged herself out of her bed and crept out of her room squinting at the bright light peaking through the curtains. "Guess you went out" Katherine said disappointedly, she hadn't seen much of Nadia recently just the few seconds it took to kill Nicky and then Nadia disappeared again.
Katherine sighed "it didn't matter" she supposed "we have all eternity to spend quality time together", for a moment she contemplated going back to bed but the hunger reminded her of her need to feed. Katherine walked over to the phone and rang the front desk to call room service, once the bell rang sheslowly trudged over to thee door and pulled it open "Your order ma'am" the young redheaded waitress lifted the lid from the plater revealing a freshly cooked lobster. Katherine gave an uninterested glance at the food "put it out on the balcony" she ordered, she didn't have the strength for pretending. The waitress ignored her rudeness and politely nodded before wheeling the food cart through the room and onto the Balcony before she unloaded the food onto the small table waiting there. "Anything else ma'am?" the waitress asked, Katherine nodded and locked eyes with the unfortunate girl drawing her into Katherines compulsion.
"Unbutton your collar" Katherine ordered as she crossed over the the woman not breaking eye contact for a second, The waitress silently followed the command the undid the first two buttons of her shirt. "You're not going to scream" Katherine ordered "then you will clean yourself hide your marks and get out of my sight" the girl nodded, Katherine finally broke eye contact and grabbed the girls head shoving it to one side exposing the vein and delicious arteries. Black veins emerged and fangs slipped from Katherines gums, quickly she sank her teeth into the womans neck and blood filled her mouth.
the sweet taste of blood dulled Katherines emotions as it flowed out of the wound its metallic taste made her mind go blank and for a few moments she forgot everything. her lost love, her ex lover and his friend trying to kill her, and the her daughter. Each problem dripped away like the droplet of blood which escaped her lips and few to the floor staining the carpet.
The flow of blood began to slow so Katherine forced more out, a blood frenzy came over her as she gave herself over to the hunger and blood lust, the waitress was drained a few seconds later and with a feeble whimper she died. Katherine dropped the pale exsanguinated corpse which hit the floor with a hard thump, the girls red hair mixing with her own blood on the floor.
Katherine mind was clear, peaceful, as the afterglow of satisfying her blood lust washed over her, But a after a few short moments the peace ended as her problems and worries wormed their way back into the forefront of her mind. She couldn't take it Katherine wanted the peace back, she wanted it more than anything. Katherine stepped over the waitresses body and left the apartment kicking over the tray table of food by the door, there was only one thing that would satisfy her. Blood. Her mind would quieten again it just needed more blood.
