A Deadly Risk
I'm not going to explain the title did you guys and girls, because I want you to really experience what this chapter is going to offer you! RDJ will be living in his very own mind as he goes through his own torture. And something unexpected happens when Angeline returns to complete her last round of torture on her prisoner. So without further interruptions, let's get right to it!
We First Start With RDJ…
The atmosphere is cold…the air was still and blunt…the sound of silence filled the air. Which could either be a really deadly sign…or a very peaceful one.
But that's not entirely the case for the vampire hunter RDJ. Who right now was doing some training on his upper body. By picking up what looked like a roller with a few bricks on the end. And he had been dragging it along by clutching onto the handle…barely even breaking a sweat.
His normal routine was to drag it from one side of the room to the other. Without stopping so he could focus on strengthening his abs.
"Haaaaa…Haaaaa…Okay…One…More…Lap!" He grunted and huffed whilst using every muscle he had to pull the roller around the room.
Just as he finally finished the final lap, he dropped the handle bars on the ground and dropped up his knees. As he picked up his towel and dried himself off from the sweat. Plumping himself down on the couch afterwards.
Sitting there taking some deep slow breaths after working out…he lowered his hand to his pocket and he pulled out his cell phone.
After turning the screen on…he noticed that his screensaver was still always going to be a picture of his wife.
In the picture it appeared that she was wearing a yellow sundress whilst standing opposite of a waterfall.
Emotionally invested in the photo, he clicked on the photos app and scrolled through several photos that were in an album named "Honeymoon in Hawaii". Which could only suggest that was where he had gone with his wife on his honeymoon.
In a few of the photos they were walking on top of an inactive volcano, they also did hula dancing on the beach. Parasailing along the ocean, as well as going to the famous waterfalls on the gorgeous island.
With every photo he flicked through, he felt himself get more and more heavy hearted. As a stream of tears poured down his cheeks. Giving every single photo a saddened smile with an emotional expression.
"Lila…I am…so sorry that this happened to you! You…You did not deserve this…" So it was there and then revealed that Lila was the name of his deceased wife. And she was the one in the photos that were scattered around his apartment. "I promise…I will not stop…until I have the opportunity to put his body in the ground…"
BANG! BANG! BANG! HSSSSAAAAAACCCCKKKKKKKAAAAAAAA!
The same bumping and banging, along with hissing and sneering noise came from within that locked room again once more. The same room that he had thrown the leg of lamb in there a couple of hours ago.
"Shut up…Shut up…" The blue and gold macaw man clutched his ears irritably, wanting the noises to stop immediately.
R…D…J….R…D…J…R…D…
At this point you could hear the same hissing but now they were making out letters as they hissed.
R…D…J…RD…J! RDJ! RDJ! R! D! J!
"SHUT UP! SHUT THE FUCK UP! JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP!" Losing his temper he ran up to the door and punched it several times over and over again.
Liar! Liar! LIAR! LIAR! LIAR! LIAAAAARRRRRRRRRR!
"PLEASE JUST SHUT…BANG…THE FUCK…BANG…UP!" He bashed his fist on the door harder and harder every single time. With his first becoming more and more bruised with every single punch.
…
"Please…just…just…be quiet…" He whispered in a saddened tone…as the screaming finally died down.
Haaaaaa…Haaaaaaa…Haaaaaaaa (Light breathing heard in the background)
"Please…Just…Stop it…" He whispered the last part sadly, pressing his head up against the door in a desperate effort to keep him in a calm state.
Silence filled the room once more as he took some deep shallow breaths…before breathing the normal way with his eyes closed in a gentle sigh.
Honey…
Suddenly…from the other side of the door he heard a tiny voice emerge from the keyhole. Taking him completely by surprise, as he hadn't heard that voice in a very long time. "L-Lila?"
Honey?
"Lila? Is that really you?" He pondered with a heavy heart..as he felt a tear drop roll down his cheek from his eye.
Why did you let me die?
The voice muttered in a creepy yet sweet tone at the same time. Even though the voice resembles his wife…to him it sounded a bit more forced rather than natural. "I…I didn't mean to? I…I tried to save you!" He muttered in sadness, with both of his eyes now filling up with tears.
You didn't love me did you? That's why you let me die…
"No…No no! Oh god no! I…I loved you with all of my heart! I l…"
You let that vampire bite me! You allowed him to kill me!
"I didn't! I swear baby! I had nothing to do with…"
(BANG!) LIAR! (BANG!) LIAR! (BANG!) LIARRRRR!
BOOOOOOOOOOM!
Suddenly the door broke down off of its hinges, sending the boys and gold man flying into a wall head first. As he smacked the back of his head and landed on his front.
"Ahhhh…F-F-Fuck-k-k!" He stuttered in agony, groggily lifting his head up to gaze at the damage.
But just as he laid his eyes upon the doorway…he noticed that there standing in the doorway…was a shadowy figure. With bright red eyes…staring directly at him.
"L-L-Lila?" RDJ's eyes widened in horror…because right there in front of him was a blue spix's macaw female. But instead of having bright purple eyes…she had bright red eyes, and by the way she was glaring at him. Now…that wasn't his wife anymore.
Haaaaaacckaaaaaa…Lila's not here anymore! AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!
"NO HONEY! STOP! NOOO! NOOOOOOOOOOO…"
…
"NO!"
Seconds later after hearing the scream of the blue spix's macaw female…he shot up from the couch. Covered in empty beer bottles and empty crisp packets.
"Ahhhh fuck…It was only a dream!" RDJ clearly had a little bit too much to drink, because he did slur his words a little. And woke up with a pounding headache, along with nausea from the alcohol in his system. "Haaaa…I didn't even…drink that…blaaahhhhh!"
He puked into a trash can that was right by the hand rest of the couch, spewing up the alcohol so he could get the majority of it up.
"Ughhhh…Why the fuck did I just leave him like that?" The vigilante referred to his best friend Vicent, as he began to sweep the empty beer bottles off of hun. Rolling on the couch next to him, as he began to rub his eyes. "How the hell was I asleep for 4 hours? How drunk was I?"
He pondered to himself out loud as he dusted himself off of the trash and food that had fallen on him. Then just as he went to grab his rucksack…he had noticed that his cellphone had 28 missed calls from Zenon. All in a space of 3 hours ending an hour ago.
"Ahhh crap! He's probably wondering why I didn't answ…"
RING! RING! RING! RING! RING!
"Shit! That's him!" RDJ realised that his boss called him once more, clearly to find out where he had gone. Unfortunately for him, he had no other choice but to answer the call. Otherwise he may get a little suspicious as to why he may have been avoiding him or not. "Okay…you can do this! Just…be brave!"
RDJ: Ahem…Hey! What's up boss man? (Facepalmed himself in disgust)
Zenon: Are you drunk?
RDJ: No…I only had seven!
Zenon: Rrrright…Anyway, I forgot to mention that I went to your place and you were not there? Then I checked on Vicent's place and neither of you were there also? Where are you guys?
RDJ: Sorry…could you repeat that last part? I didn't hear any word that had just come out of your beak hole
Zenon: Are you making fun of me?
RDJ: Whaaaaat? How dare you sir! I would never make fun of my boss! What do you take me for?
Zenon: Ughhhh…Drink some coffee and sober up kid! I gotta new assignment for you, and I need you sober and alert. Can you handle that?
RDJ: Sure! I'll see you in a few hours!
Zenon: You have 1 hour to sober up!
RDJ: 2 hours?
Zenon: Ughhhh fine! But if you are not here in 2 hours on the dot, I only pay you half!
RDJ: Sure! No…Hello? Hello?
"That bastard hung up on me!" The blue and gold macaw male groaned and threw his phone on the couch. Plumping himself down as he brushed all of the glass beer bottles and crisp packets that have been eaten and emptied on the floor. "Ughhh…Well…I suppose I better get to the 24 hour coffee stand on the beach front…I just hope that Vicent is okay…"
Speaking Of Which…Let's Check In On Him…
"Come on baby…Come…On…AHHHHH!" The blue spix's macaw vigilante was attempting to use a rusty long metal rod to pick the lock on the handcuffs. But because the end of the spike was a little larger than the lock on the cuffs, he wasn't able to even budge it at all. "Fuck! Useless piece of garbage!" He threw it on the ground next to him and sighed heavily in exhaustion. As he felt himself getting pretty tired from not eating anything in the past 7 hours. "Boy I'm getting hungry…I wish I had like a snickers bar or something."
His stomach began to growl and he rubbed his belly in sadness. Despite the fact that he was still incredibly angry at the she devil creature who had brought him here.
Speaking of her…she had returned from getting changed into some kind of fancy looking nightie. That had to be over centuries old, but still looked pretty sexy on her. As the cups did push her boobs up like a sports bra.
"Oh…still awake? I would have thought you'd be passed out in fear…" Angeline narrowed her eyes playfully, placing a bag of items on the table in front of her. "I can see that…"
GRRRWWWWWLLLLLLLLLLLLL!
"Oh! Where are my manners? You must be really hungry after being here for so long! Hehehe…" She giggled in a sadistic yet flirtatious manner. But the flurrying was only a way to make him more nervous again so his heart could process more blood to the veins. "Here…a little something for your stomach!"
She tossed over to him what appeared to be a tomato that had been perfectly ripened.
Without even hesitation he began devouring the fruit (TOMATO IS A FRUIT! NOT A VEGETABLE!) with no problems whatsoever.
As he finished it rather quickly, he sighed in relation as he savoured every single bite. "Mmmm…how comes its so…fresh?"
"What?! You think I'd poison you or something?" She put a hand on her hip whilst shaking her head.
"Obviously! You are a fucking psycho!" He rudely snarled back and glared at her with hatred.
"So I give you food to keep your strength up…and this is the way you repay me?! Boy…you really are a piece of work…"
"Coming from the whore who kidnapped me and took me to a place that's probably older than your granny!"
"Hey! My granny was 2197 when she passed away! This place is at least over 5000 years old!"
"Just as old as your mommy…" Vicent insulted her with the full intention of getting under her skin. But in actuality…it instead…made her fall silent.
"My mom…she…she died…a few years after I was born…" She muttered in a saddened tone, despite the fact that she was there to suck his blood. What he had said to her really got to her. But it didn't take her that long to return to enragement after another sarky comment about her own mother was mentioned.
"Yeah, she probably killed herself knowing that she didn't love or want you! Because she knew how much of a loser and a bitch you are!"
"FUCK YOU!" She grabbed him by the throat and aggressively held him up so his face was right in front of hers. "You do not speak about my mom in that way! DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?!"
"Actually no? Would you remind repeating it so I can understand how to speak in tongues?" The insults kept coming and coming and you would have thought at this point she would have ripped out his throat and began to feast on his blood. But in fact…like all vampires do before devouring their prey. They begin the preparations necessary to prepare themselves for their meal.
"Why…of course Vi Vi…I can speak in tongues if you wish…" She swapped from her agressuve demeanour and turned it into flirtatious and sexual to attempt to make him nervous again.
"H-Huh?" Not really understanding why she changed behaviour so suddenly, he rose an eyebrow in inquisitiveness. Intending to perceive what she was implying. "What…What are you doing?"
"Hey…Why are we arguing? We should be talking this out like…two attractive people. Having a decent conversation…don't you…agree?" Her flirtatious and sexual energy was just the most powerful thing a vampire can do to lure in her prey. Despite the fact that vampire seduction doesn't work on him…she learned enough from other mortals over the years on how to flirt with men. Without even trying to use her powers. "In fact…I have been…missing a man's touch in…soooo long!"
"What are you talking ab…Woah…" Unanticipatedly, right in front of his very eyes…Angeline had once again slipped off her clothes in front of him. Revealing her bare humongous breasts and nipples in front of him. "Ughhhh…" He was stunned when she grabbed one of his hands and made him touch one of her boobs. He had fairly big hands, but he only managed to hold the top of her breast.
"How does it feel?" She pouted in a sexual expression…as she noticed that the blood was rushing to his cheeks as well as his…lower body parts.
"Feels…s-soft…and…huge…" He replied in a complete trance, as he actually used his other hand to grab the other breast. Giving them a light squeeze…which surprisingly made her moan. Which was very unusual for her…but despite this…she knew that the time to drink his blood as vastly approaching.
"Mmmmm…you ever feel boobs this big before?"
"N-Nope…Ummmm…" Suddenly he felt himself getting more nervous as time passed on. Which was absolutely perfect for her. Because now…the scarlet macaw female was about to do something so crazy. That it was going to be the ultimate killer setup for him to be charmed by her.
"Now it's time I spoke in tongues, right?" Her eyes began to turn a light purple once more…lusting for the taste of his blood. But her torture was not finished as of yet…because she had one last trick up her sleeve. And just like that, she slammed her naked body up against his. And she grabbed him by the cloak and passionately kissed him on the beak. Swirling her tongue around the inside of his beak to really really make him feel vulnerable to her.
But…as she anticipated this approach…at first, Vicent was completely taken by surprise by the way she just kissed him like this. But…feeling her hot breath inside his beak as she moaned whilst kissing him…unexpectedly…he actually started to kiss her back.
As Angeline felt his tongue colliding with hers, exploring the insides of her beak as her large breasts were pushed up again his muscular chest. She felt him lower one of his hands to her butt…and he actually squeezed her right cheek as they continued kissing. Which surprised her…but…she actually loved this feeling.
In her head…she felt awfully different about this kind of experience…but in her heart however…there was something else going on. But whatever it was…she actually felt…terrified?
Was she terrified that she didn't want to be groped by the person she intended to kill? Or was she terrified for the fact in some way…she actually liked it?
In Vicent's head, despite the fact that he was being tortured and abused in such ways…he actually felt good kissing this girl. His chest began to feel a bit…warm? And his heartbeat began to beat faster. But not because he was scared for his life anymore…but more like…excitement.
Although…things didn't continue in as long as he would have liked.
All of a sudden she pulled away from the kiss and swiftly put her clothes back on. Her eyes returned to their normal red colour and her fangs had slowly retreated back into her gums. Standing up and walking a few metres away from him with her face covered by her hand. "Get out…" She simply whispered to him in a sad yet…fearful manner. Tossing the key to the handcuffs over to him. "Right now…you're free to leave!"
"Wait…what?" After she pulled away from kissing him…he had a tonne of questions that he wanted to ask right now.
Like…why did she kiss him?
Why did he kiss back?
Why did she back off?
Why did his heart have this sudden feeling of wanting to kiss her again!?
So many questions…but very few answers were presenting themselves to him.
"You heard me! Get the fuck out! You are free to leave!" She immediately turned away and used her lightning speed to shoot off into the deeper and darker depths of the castle.
Vicent watched her leave in such a hurry…and he couldn't help but have a brainstorm of what happened earlier on.
Everything happened so fast in the blink of an eye that he was absolutely stuck for words. He used the key on the key ring to unlock the handcuffs.
Once he slipped out of the cuffs he dropped them on the floor and proceeded towards the nearest exit of the castle.
And yet…as he did make it to the gap in the wall witch lead to a hill and a stairway leading to the main road…something stopped him from going through that gap.
A signal in his brain had told him that he needed to turn around and investigate the vampire more. Because…something about that kiss…really confused him. Despite him being a badass and him being quite ok skinned and strong minded. Something about her…a more…sensitive side to her was revealed just now.
"Yet I wonder…" Instead of exiting like Angeline wanted him to, he actually did the opposite and make a U-Turn. By strolling down the very same hallway where the scarlet vampire escaped down. Only to fill his curiosity.
The halls were very dimly lit with old aged candles, that ere scattered in holes along the walls of this very long room.
The stone had been decaying clearly for hundreds of years and most of the castle seemed to be old enough to rot away over the coming years.
(Sound of a piano playing in the background)
In the right hand side of the hallway, a narrow corridor lead to a room with some fancy piano right in the middle of the room.
The room was filled once more with candles and moss to show how old it was…but what struck Vicent the most…was the fact that the scarlet macaw vampire was the one playing the piano.
The blue spix's macaw male pulled the hood of his cloak down once more to reveal his face. And he didn't want to startle her or even cause a problem by interrupting her. So instead of d teeing the room and speaking to her. He just stood there leaned up against the doorframe. Watching her play the piano with such grace.
Angeline: When I find myself in times of trouble, Mother Mary comes to me,
Speaking words of wisdom…Let it be!
And in my hour of darkness she is standing right in front of me,
Speaking words of wisdom…Let it be!
(She was singing Let It Be – The Beatles)
Vicent took a couple of steps inside the room and sat down on a chair in the back end of the room to listen in on her singing. By the way her soothing voice filled the air…it was like music to his ears.
Angeline: Let it be, Let it be, Let it be, Let it be!
Whisper words of wisdom…Let it be!
And when the broken hearted people living in the world agree,
There will be an answer…Let it be!
The more and more she sung about these words, you could hear it in her voice. She was hurting. Like…this was a very painful song for her. Why she decided to sing this particular song was very confusing.
Was it to let all her emotions out? Or was it because he enjoyed the song? Or maybe a little bit of both!
Angeline: For though they may be parted…They…Ughhh…
She forgot the next line of the song and actually started to tear up a little bit. She must have felt so broken right now that she couldn't even concentrate on her singing. But…unbeknownst to her…someone would help her remember the song.
Vicent: For though they may be parted, There is still a chance that they will see…
Angeline paused as she heard the male singing to the song with her. But instead of getting upset or annoyed with him…she allowed him to sing with her.
Angeline: There will be an answer…Let it be!
Both: Let it be! Let it be! Let it be! Let it be!
There will be an answer…Let it be!
Angeline scooted over to the left so that he could sit down next to her and play the piano with her. Surprisingly he knew how to play the piano, and play it beautifully.
Vicent: Let it be, Let it be, Let it be, Let it be!
Whisper words of wisdom…Let it be!
Angeline: Let it be! Let it be! Let it be! Let it be!
Whisper words of wisdom…Let it be!
As the song was going on…Angeline couldn't help but smile at him because despite him being kidnapped by her…she actually fairly liked his company.
Angeline: And when the night is cloudy, there is still a light that shines on me!
Shinin' until tomorrow, let it be!
Vicent: I wake up to the sound of music, Mother Mary comes to me,
Speaking words of wisdom…Let it be!
Both: And let it be! Let it be! Let it be! Let it be!
Whisper words of wisdom…Let it be!
And let it be! Let it be! Let it be! Let it be!
Whisper words of wisdom…Let it be!
Song Ends…
The blue spix's macaw man removed his hands from the keys and Angeline slowly closed the case afterwards. Standing up and walking away from him, staring at the wall with a blank expression on her face. "I thought you were going to leave…" She whispered in a quiet tone, scratching the back of her head.
"For a second there I thought the exact same thing. But…" He replied quite casually, not really understanding why he decided to stick around.
"But?" She pondered with an eyebrow raised in curiosity.
"But there is something about that kiss earlier…I don't know if you know what I am going on about?" He replied with a calm tone.
"Yes…I do! But…"
"But what?"
"I…I don't really want to talk about it okay? Now please…just leave me!" Angeline was about to walk away from him, but he gently grabbed hold of her hand. Stopping her in her tracks as her face lightly became a hot pink.
"Listen…one minute you want to kill me…now you don't? What changed?" He wasn't giving up that easy. Even giving her a sympathetic tone. "You can tell me."
"Haaaaa…fine. Sit down…" Angeline finally gave into him and sat down on the stool by the piano. As he sat down a few paces next to her. "That kiss…I actually…enjoyed i.."
"I see…" He spoke with a bit of ease, understanding why she was acting this way.
"But I didn't want to enjoy it! I was only doing it to make you nervous so I can drink your blood. But now…I…can't." She sighed heavily in defeat. Looking down at her claws.
"What do you mean?"
"Don't these vampire hunters teach you anything?" Angeline stood up and shook her head from side to side. "When a vampire kisses someone, and that someone kissed back…an energy is sparked in between them. Causing what we call a spark blur. And before you ask. It's a connection that's kind of like…feelings? But at the same time…not if that makes sense?"
"Oh so…like…lust?" Vicent suggested, earning a nod from her.
"Yes exactly that! Lust for love or lust for blood. Either way, we become friends with that person through a deeper part of our minds. That's why I don't want to kill your now…because my heart won't let me." She finished explaining and turned away from him. "Besides…you better get out of here. If your friend finds out that you are missing for too long…he'd send a search party after you."
"But…what about you? I can't just leave you here?" All of a sudden now he was showing a small sign of care for the soulless creature. Despite having a strong hatred for her only moments ago.
"Yes you can! I survived many years on my own, I can survive many more." The scarlet female sadly responded.
In her heart she didn't want him to leave just yet. But again she was thinking about both of their safety…rather than just thinking about herself.
"Fine…I'll leave! But…I want to see you again."
"Huh? You…You do?" Angeline's eyes lit up a little bit after hearing these words. Nobody in years had spoken about her in such ways. That she was actually excited over the idea of that.
"Sure! I mean…I know that we e started off on the wrong foot here but…I'd like to see you again. Even if it means coming back here?"
"Oh no…We can't meet here! If you were followed, then they could end up destroying this place."
"But if we head back to my place then my friends would kill you!" Vicent suggested as he placed a finger on his chin to think.
"Well…we could always go to the statue of Christ The Redeemer? Nobody ever goes up there at night." Angeline smiled at the thought of it.
"That's perfect! Shall we say…tomorrow? At midnight?" He smiled warmly back in response.
"Midnight is perfect!"
"Great…ummmm…So…I'll see you tomorrow?" Vicent beamed with a smile, as he made his way out of the room.
"See you tomorrow." She called back with a grin. Right before seeing him wave goodbye to her.
Just as he was out of her sight…she couldn't help but smile at the thought of seeing him again tomorrow. Weirdly enough she had never been this excited about anyone in so long…that now she couldn't even wait to get to sleep. As she had to get to her coffin before daylight had approached.
As for Vicent…he climbed out through the hole in the castle wall and instantly made it for the road. And as he walked away, he couldn't help but smile whilst looking over his shoulder.
He had no idea what had happened between the two of them in the last hour. But whatever it was…it was definitely something he had never experienced before.
That's what intrigued him the most!
I wonder what will happen next eh? Well I do hope that you are all enjoying this story so far. Because as the story goes on, it will be pull of plot twists and excitement! So you know you'd be on the edge of your seat. Anyway, it'll see you all soon for the next chapter!
