The Hunt


Chapter Thirteen

Lucky Thirteen

            I woke up, and Claire was gone…again. My head still felt foggy. Mid-day sunlight shone through the window. I remembered what Claire told my last night with what happened between her and John, but I was having trouble believing it. I got up and changed clothes in to a pair of new jeans and a forest green short sleeve t-shirt. The house was quiet as I walked down the hall to the kitchen and seen Michael leaning on the counter drinking coffee. “He lives!” Michael said as I walked over to the table in front of him. I looked at the clock and it read 11:34am. Wow, I thought, I hardly ever sleep past ten. “Where is everyone,” I asked. “Well they’re outside getting in some practice before our hunt.” I nodded then said, “ Wait what… did you say our hunt?”  He looked at me and said very slowly, like teaching a child, “Yes Joey. Your first hunt. You’re a hunter so therefore you will hunt.”

“I’m not stupid Michael. What are we hunting?” I asked.

“A vampire.” Michal replied curtly and walked out the door. I followed him out and seen Claire and John practicing the defenses in the grass. They saw us coming and broke apart. “Joey,” Claire squealed and hugged me. I was shocked so I just stood there. She pecked me on the check then glared at Michael as she walked past him to get to the car. “Um…” I went to explain to Michael. “ Just get in the car he said, while getting in the passenger side. I just sighed and got in behind John with a feeling this was going to be a very long car ride.

~~~*~~~

I was right it was the longest car ride of my life. I spent most of the time looking out the window. The tension in the car was so heavy and uncomfortable you could’ve cut it with a knife.  Outside the window the sunny day had turned into a cold and foggy day. The rain fell heavily on the car and the sound of it was putting me to sleep. I rested my head on the window and closed my eyes.

I was dreaming we were back at the house, only it was just Michael and I. We were in the kitchen, I was standing by the door and Michael was at the sink. Suddenly Michael whirled around and looked at me with extreme angry in his eyes. “You stupid, worthless, sorry, ungrateful, son of a gun!”  He snarled at me, “ What right do you have to steal my girlfriend after all I’ve done for you!”

“ All  you’ve done for me?!” I asked. Michael walked towards me and I could see fleck of spit fly form his mouth as he said, “ I saved your freaking life!”  That again, huh? I thought. “ How long are you going to hold that over my head?”  I countered, furious at how much he used that line against me.  I knew he had a point without Michael I’d probably be dead now, but still that doesn’t mean I own him my happiness. “ As long as I have to to teach you your place!” he responded. “You know what Michael I think its you who needs to learns  your place,” I said pointing my finger at him. “ Just stay away from Claire, or else.”

“Or else what?” I asked. He narrowed his eyes at me and said, “ You’ve been warned.” I was a bout to respond when John woke me up, “ We’re here.” I blinked and looked to see where “here” is. It was dark and we were at a rundown motel who’s sign was barley lit so I couldn’t make out the name. John steped back to let me out of the car and said, “Claire you go get the room keys, I’ll get dinner, Michael Joey get the bags out of the car.” I sighed and walked around to the trunk and waited for Michael to open it. He inserted the key and the trunk popped open. I grabbed a few bags and set them down and turned to grab another bag. As I reached down to grab one but Michael  had to gotten rest out and was looking at me. “ What?” I asked. He shook his head, “ Nothing,” and grabbed the bags and followed Claire to the room.

We stopped outside of room 213 and 214, John handed Michael a key and said, “ Okay, so since there are four of us (Sam stayed behind) we have to get two rooms. Me in Claire in one room and you  and Joey in the other.” Claire looked at him, “ why can’t I stay with Joey?” John looked at her and said, “ Because I don’t trust you two…. Alone.”

Michael unlocked the door to 213 and put our bags in the room, and I took Claire and John’s bags to their room. When I came back in Michael was sitting on the bed closest to the bathroom in nothing but his jeans. “ Dude really?” “Don’t like the view don’t look at it.” I rolled my eyes and sat down by the window. I surveyed the layout of the room; there were two bed and in between them was a nightstand, in front of the two bed was a TV stand and dresser, past that was the bathroom. Beside the door were a window and a table with two chairs and a lamp against the wall. I sighed and looked in to the bag that john had given us containing our food. It was a hamburger and fries from some local diner and a few bottles of water. We ate in silence; me sitting at the table and Michael lounging on the bed flipping through thirty channels of crap TV. He settled on the local news.

“ In other news another body has been found in a local wooded area last night.” The blonde news woman reported. “ The body of nineteen year old Candice Grey was found in a shallow grave by two teens walking in the woods. The pair discovered the body after one tripped over the protruding leg that was sticking out. The two immediately ran home and called authorities. Police have yet to release a statement but those on the seen reported bite marks of the girls neck eerily familiar the ‘Vampire’ killing that started last week in Burketsville.”  Michael sat up and said, “ I don’t believe it that vampires moving faster than we thought it would.” I scooted forward, “ what do you mean?”

  “Well we figured we had a day or two to plan a strategy before the thing got here to Smithsfield. I guess we were wrong.”

“So now what?” I asked. Michael stood up, put a shirt on, and said, “come on lets go talk to John.”  We walked out of the room and knocked on John’s door. John answered and rubbed his eyes, “What?” 

“ We were watching the news. The vampire here in town, It’s already killed one girl.” “ Damn. Okay lets get ready it’s…” He looked at his watch, “ 11:25 so we’ll get nap and start looking for this thing at sunrise so about six-ish. Okay?” Michael and I nodded and walked back over to our room. “ Dude why are you shaking,” Michael asked me. “Wha-.” I realized I was shaking. “ Your nervous,” Michael said with a chuckle. “So?” He smirked and laid down on the bed. I sighed and laid on the other bed. I probably should change my clothes, I thought, but decided it wasn’t important to do at the moment. I heard Michael start snoring and I followed suit…

I screamed when a large weight crashed down on me, and I started trying to punch my attacker but my hands were pinned beside me. I opened my eyes to see Michael staring down at me, “ Are you going to get up and get ready or should I tell John you chickened out?” I looked over at the clock and seen it was five o’clock.  I groaned and said, “ I’m up I’m up.” Michael let me go and I sat up rubbing my face and yawned. Getting a new change of clothes I walked in to the bathroom and looked in the mirror. I looked exhausted and my hair was sticking up in many directions. I peeled off my dirty clothed and turned on the hot water. I stepped into the shower and let the water run over head and down my back. I grabbed the soap and lathered up my body. I rinsed off and washed my hair. Stepping out of the shower I grabbed a fresh white towel and dried myself off. Getting dressed I put on a pair of black jeans and a black shirt since it would blend in better with the woods and the night. I walked out and sat on the bed to put my shoes on when Michael sat down and started to tell me some of the factual lore about vampires.

Once I knew everything he thought I should know got up to gather the weapons. “ Here,” Michael said as he threw me a small 9mm “the bullets are coated in dead man’s blood and vervane. It won’t kill a vampire but it will slow ‘em down long enough for you to stake it.”

We walked over to John and Claire’s room and knocked on the door. Claire opened it this time and let us in. John was sitting on one of the beds. Michael and I sat on the chairs at the table and since the coffe pot was there we each got a cup of coffee. “ So here’s the plan, we investigate the forest around the crime scene in a five mile radius. I doubt the thing is staying to far from the site since it seems all the attacks in the other area were with in miles of each other. So we’ll split up in to two pairs and call the other if we find something. Don’t I repeat DO NOT try to take this vampire on alone. Everybody understand?”  We finished out coffee then walked out to the car. Nobody said anything as we got in the car and drove down the road about ten miles and pulled over into the woods behind a line of oak trees. Getting out of the car John walked around to the back and opened the trunk. “Here you and Michael be careful call if you find anything.” John said handing us each a sharp wooden stake.  Grabbing two more and taking one for himself and handing the other to Claire he shut the trunk starts walking off into the woods in the direction toward the front of the car. Michael and I started walking in the opposite direction. It was hard to see since it wasn’t quite morning yet so periodically one of us would trip over a twig and weeds or walk into a branch. “ Damn,” Michael said several times while walking which gave me a hint when an obstacle was ahead of us. We walked for about an hour or so and finally the sun was up far enough to where we could see our surroundings. We walked for another hour before Michael said, “let’s stop here for a minute and rest.” I sunk down on the a fallen log beside Michael, “ it’s gonna be a cold day today don–…. Did you hear that?” I whispered. Michael held up his hand to shush me. We both stood up and we heard a twig snap behind us and turned around to see a man standing off in the distance. He was wearing blue jeans and white shirt stained with dry blood, he had dark brown hair and even from a distance you could see his piercing ice blue eyes and his sharper then natural teeth. He smirked at us and let off a screech so loud I thought my ear were going to explode. He suddenly rushed forward almost as a blur and punched Michael, knocking him out. Before I could reach my gun the vampire tackled me and straddled my chest pinning my hands above my head. This is it. I’m gonna die today. I hope Kay’s ok… I thought closing my eyes not want to see what happens. “ No hunter  look at me. I want to see the fear in your eyes before you die. Look at me!” He commanded. I peeked my eyes open to see him looking down at me. His wicked smile showed his lateral incisors and canines were razor sharp  and I could smell the blood from his victims caked on his shirt. His nails were sharp like claws and dug into my wrist. He looked to be about twenty three and had fair skin that was flawless. He started to bend forward and a loud bang interrupted him. He turned around and hisses at a barley standing Michael who was prepared to fire again. Suddenly the vampire stood up and ran off in to the woods barley making a sound at all. “Joey! Are you ok?” Michael holstered his gun quickly and ran over to help me up. “ I’m okay. I’m just shooken up.”  Michael pulled me up and then wiped the blood the ran down his cheek ,from the vampire, on the back of his hand. We heard someone approaching and both of us drew our guns. “ What happened we hears gun fire?” John yelled and we put our guns away and flopped down on the log again. John and Claire appeared behind us a moment later . “ We got attacked by the vampire.” Michael told them. Claire dropped down beside me and wrapped her arms around me. I was still in shock so I let her lay my head on her shoulder and closed my eyes. “ What’d it do?” John asked.  “ It knocked me out briefly and when I woke up it was second away from making a meal out of Joey. Had him pinned to the ground and was about to bite him, but I was able to shot it. Then it ran off into the woods.”  John rubbed his chin and said, “ Okay well lets head back to the hotel and get you two into some dry clothes and then we’ll come back out.” I noticed after he said that that my back was damp from remnants of the morning dew on the cold ground. I looked at Michael and seen he too had his shirt sticking to his back. We stood up and walked back to the car it took us some time but finally we reached it and we headed back to the hotel.

 

 

Dmitri’s P.O.V

 I almost had my second meal of the day the a fiery pain exploded through my shoulder. I turned to see the other hunter aiming what appeared to be a small normal hand gun. Dead man’s blood,  I realized. That’s when I knew I had to get out of there. I ran off faster than their human minds could ever comprehend. The pain I felt was excruciating, but being a vampire my body started to heal and stopping to drink the blood of that dear had sped up the process so now an hour later I was fully healed.

I pulled out my phone and called Martin.

“Hello?” he said in a sleepy voice.

“ I thought you said there were no hunters in Burketsville.” I snapped

“ There weren’t when I was there.” He responded.

“ Well apparently there are now and I have a bullet in my shoulder to prove it!”

“ Damn it Dmitri you’re in the town for a day have already left a trail for a pair of hunters to follow.”

“ I’ve been trying to cover my tracks, but its kind of a little hard to bury a body in nearly frozen ground!”

“ Okay Okay, calm down. … You know I honestly don’t know what to tell you. Just be careful and at night fall get the hell out of there.”   He hung up and I slammed my phone shut.

I tried to sleep but I could stop thinking of getting revenge. Then it hit me. I got up and ran out to the county line where the fair grounds were. At the fairgrounds there was a complex maze of bushes or a labyrinth. I lifter my hand to my nose to catch a faint whiff of the blonde boys blood from where I broke skin from punching him.  I easily caught their trail and followed it back to a hotel. I walked up to where the sent came from, room 213 and looked in the window throught the sight area in the curtains that weren’t fully drawn. I sniffed the air and sure enough caught the sent of the other pair of hunters I had seen leave with them. Sneaking around to the back I silently opened the bathroom window and slipped in I cracked the door slightly and listened to the man talk to the girl. “Claire I don’t know what’s going on between you and Joey and Michal. Quite frankly I normally wouldn’t care but since I rely on all of you to keep me alive and vice versa I can’t have them at each other’s throats. Or worse letting the other die.” She was about to reply when I appeared be hind the man. I grabbed a vase that was in the dresser and said, “ Nighty night.” I bashed it over his head an he sunk to the floor. The girls eyes got big and she quickly reached for her gun and a stake but I was quicker. I ran over to her and grabbed her wrist she looked up at me and I back handed her across the face hard enough to knock her out. She slumped over and I slung her over my shoulder then walked out the door.

 

 

Joey’s P.O.V

Once we got back I changed and so did Michael. We turned on the TV and waited for John to call and tell us it was time to go again. Two hours passed and we were still waiting for John’s call. “ Come on Joey lets go over there.” Michael said after his repeated attempts to call John had failed. I stood up and we walk over and knocked on the door…. Nothing… we knocked again, harder this time…. Nothing. “Keep watch.”  He said and kneeled down. He pulled a thin wire out of his pocket and started to pick the lock. “Got it.”  He announced and turned the doorknob. We walked in to the room and seen an unconscious John laying on the floor with bits and shards of a broken vase around him. Some pieces of glas had become embedded on to his skin and he had dried blood caked into his hair on the back of his head. Claire was nowhere to be seen.  I hear Michael swear and he said, “ Hear help me get him in the car we’ve got to take him to the hospital.” “ What about Claire?” I asked. “Dammit I forgot about her. Um, I guess we’ll have to… ah I got it.”  He pulled out his phone and  dialed 911. “ Um yes I just discovered a man lying unconscious in a hotel room. Room 214. My name?  Its Calvin Perkins.” He shut his phone and said, Okay let’s get out of here but first grab the guns and stakes. Don’t want the police getting ahold of that.” After we gathered everything we got in the car. A moment after I shut my door a cruiser and an ambulance pulled up and rushed up the stairs to the second floor. “ And that’s our que.”  Michael said.

We pulled out onto the road and we drove off toward the area we seen the vampire. I looked at the clock and it said 3:15 . By the time we got to the site where we  parked to car last time it read 3:55. Getting out of the car I grabbed the stakes I had thrown in the floor and reached back in to the console for my gun. I threw Michael a stake and walked around to the side of the car. “Well what now?” I asked him. “ I don’t know I guess we start walking until we find a trace of it.” We started walking in the direction he took off in. We didn’t say a word while we walked, we simply listened for sounds of the vampire. However no matter how hard we listened we heard now. “ Wait Michael look an old barn.” I pointed out to Michael.

 In the distance there was an old barn than had lost almost all of it paint, had broken windows, and part of the roof was missing. We approached it with quiet caution and slowly opened the door and walked in. As soon as we walked in we could smell the strong stench of decay and see the carcass of a dead dear in the corner of the barn. We also seen a hammock, dirty clothes, and a note book sitting on a shelf. Slowly we approached the hammock, but it was soon cleat that no one was there. Michael grabbed the note book and flipped through the pages, “ Look it’s a journal. He talks about being turned and recently and about all the people he’s killed. Listen March 15, 2012 ‘ I feel the power of being a vampire flowing through my  veins. I think of the fear scent coming off of my victims when they feel my hot breath against their skin, just before I bite down and end  their lives. Like that sweet red head I found hiking in the woods yesterday.’” I scratched my head, “ wow sounds like this guy was slightly off his rocker.” Michael shook his head, “ Nah. All newly turned vampire are like that. Hey look at this last entry.” He handed my the book and my blood ran cold.

  I looked up at Michael and then down at my watch. “Its 9:39 that’s only two and a half hours.” I said. “I know we better hurry,” Michael said grimly. “ Where do you think he is?” Michael opened his mouth to reply but nothing came out. He shrugged and hung his head, “ I don’t know.”  I thought about all the possible place a vampire could hide as we walk out of the barn and into the woods. It was about 9:58 when I stopped in my tracks and said, “ The maze. Michael! I got it. When we drove through here this morning I seen a sign that said Burketville Labyrinth.” Michael and I ran back to the car as fast as we could. When we got to the car the time was 10:27.  Michael turned on the car and sped off towards the county line. It took us about fifteen minutes to get there. We walked up to the entrance and right at the beginning was a map of the labyrinth.

                   “She could be in any of these clearings!” Michael said in frustration. “ I think she’s in that one,” I said pointing in the one in the upper left hand corner. “ Why? How do you know?” Michael asked. I looked at him and explained, “ think about it. It’s the one that’s farthest away from the entrance.” We stood there for a minute while Michael debated whether or not my reason made enough sense to risk it being wrong.  I looked at my watch and it read 10:59. “ Michael we really don’t have time for you to think to much about this.” I informed him. He huffed and said, “ I know. Okay upper left corner it is.”

We started in to the maze and slowly made out way around the first circle. I remembered a fact I read on the internet and told Michael  to follow the right wall. We pain staking made it through the pitch black maze by gripping the right wall. I looked down at my watch and it said 11:34. “ only twenty six- minutes.” I whispered. He didn’t say anything but I heard him pick up his pace and I did the same. I was so focused on listening for the vampire that I didn’t realize Michael and I had gotten separated. I looked up to say something and realized I could no longer hear Michaels foot steps ahead of me. “  Michael!” I yelled frantically trying to turn around and make my way back to the last turn we made. The onlygood thing was we had been walking in the dark so long I sold see the faint out line of everything. I yelled again, “ Michael!” Nothing, no response. I was panicking now. Time was running out and I had lost Michael. “ Joey!” I heard a voice yell in the distance behind me. Turning around I ran towards it “ Michael?!” “ I’m over hear –” I heard him yell, but he was cut off. I heard him yell and I ran faster. As I followed to sound I got turned around and didn’t know where I was. Finally I rounded a corner and almost tripped over Michael and the vampire – Dmitri – fighting on the ground. Well more like Dmitri on top of Michael about to finish him off. In all the commotion they had not heard me approach. I looked around and seen the stake Michael had dropped when Dmitri ambushed him. I quietly shuffled over and grabbed it. I turned around in time to see Dmitri sink his teeth in to Michaels neck. With no more time for stealth I ran up behind him and yelled, “ No!” I seen the vampire’s head shoot up and look at me with glowing red eyes. I brought the stake down into his chest and I heard his hiss of fury fade into a gurgling sound as he fell over where I pushed him off of Michael.

“ Michael!” I knelt down beside him and felt his wound, it was gushing blood. I took off my jacket that I had worn and pressed it against his neck desperately trying to stop the bleeding. “ Come on come on come on.”  “ Joey?” he whispered. I breathed a shaky sigh of relief, “ ya it’s me. Are you okay?” “Ow. I will be please tell me you staked that blood – sucking S.O.B” He said setting up. “ Ya I got him.”  Standing up he said, “ good now come on he told me where she was. “ Was I right?” “ Ya according to him you were.”

We ran towards the corner and finally came to the last turn as we rounded it we seen… an empty space. “ What?” I asked confused. “ That thing lied to me!” Michael yelled, outraged. “ The center.” I whispered. “What?”  I looked at Michael, “ The center that’s where Claire is. It’s the last place we’d look since there were so many other options.”      “ Bravo Josef.” A voice said behind me. It was Dmitri. “ but times run out. Now say good bye to your precious Claire.” And with that he disappeared around the corner. “ I thought you staked him!” Michael said. “ I did!” I yelled. “ There must be more than one.” Michael said. “  Great. The more the merrier.” I snapped. We took off running through the maze. We had rounded several corners when we heard Claire yell. “ HELP!” We picked up our speed. Finally we came around the last hedge and seen the most horrific sight I’d ever seen. Dmitri smiled wickidly as he presses his bleeding wrist to Claire’s mouth. Claire reached up and grabbed his arm sucking on his arm and completing the transformation. “NOOO!”  Michael and I both yelled together and dashed forward. We both tackled Dmitri at the same time and pinned him against the wooden pole I drabbed the rope and tired his hand and legs together and then to the pole. Michael kneeled beside Claire and I heard him sob. “ Claire?” he chocked out. Beside me Dmitri started cackling. Michael jumped up and punched him not that it affected him much. Though he did stop laughing  he said, “ You hunters think your so much better than everything else.  You act like your God’s gift to Earth,” he spat, “ but really your just filthy insects that pollute this planet. You all say we’re the monsters but really you should be looking at yourselves.” I heard the ropes snap felt his body slam into mine. I hit  the ground hard and lost my breath. I gasped for air and struggled against him. I felt his body dip and I jerked back in time to hear his teeth snap together beside my ear.  I gasped and he growled in frustration. I felt his body lean forward again, but this time I felt his teeth connect with my shoulder. I screamed in agony as his teeth broke my skin. I could feel the blood pour out of me and in to his mouth. I seen black dots at the edge of my vision and started to close me eyes. Then Dmitri suddenly jumped up as if in pain. I looked at him and his eyes were wide in surprise and he gripped his stomach in pain. That’s when Michael came up behind him and with the swipe of a blade cut Dmitri’s head clean off. Dmitri’s head fell  to the side and then his body crumpled where it stood.  I sat up and seen Michael gripping a machete. “ Why didn’t you do that sooner!” I yelled. “ I forgot I had it.” He stated. I sighed in frustration. “ Let me check your wound,” Michael said. I pushed him away and said, “ I’m fine.” I crawled over to Claire and pulled her onto my lap. “Maybe it didn’t work I.” I said almost crying. “ I doubt it. Vampires never fail at this. I held on to her for minute longer and stood up. I took barley a step when my legs went out and I fell forward. “ Whoa whoa whoa come on Joey don’t pass out on me now.” Michael said reaching out to catch me. I tried to respond but blackness over took me and I lost consciousness.

 

 

I woke up from the worst nightmare  I’d ever had. In it my parents died my sister almost died and monsters were real. Then I fell in love but she died. I opened my expecting to find the comforting navy blue walls of my room, but I was looking at the cream beige colored walls of a strange room. I sat up fast and gasped as a sharp pain shot across my shoulder and chest I looked down and seen white bandages going across my shoulder and under my arm. I was in just my jeans. I lifted my head to look around the room despite the pounding headache at my temples. “Agh.”  “ Hey look who’s up.”  I stared stupidly at the blonde boy about my age that stood in the hall near what I guessed was a hotel bathroom. It was the same guy from my nightmare. Then I realized my parents  were dead, Kay was dying, Claire was probably dead, and Michael was real. It wasn’t a dream it was the sad reality. I sighed and swung my feet over the bed an walked to the bathroom after I relieve myself I walked back out to the hotel room. I noticed that it was a different hotel then where we had been before. “ Where are we?” “Beckley, Wv.” “ Where’s Claire?” “ She didn’t ingest enough blood to make the change so we took her to the local hospital.” I breathed a sigh of relief. At least she was still alive, and human. Just then the door opened and a woman walked. “ Here I brought you guys dinner,” Cassidy said as she set down a bag that smelled of Chinese food. “ What is she doing here?” I asked Michael. “ Nice to see you to Joey.” She said. “ Well you passed out on me Claire we out cold, and I knew I couldn’t get either of you back without leaving one of you behind cause I’d never find you again so I called for help.” Cassidy smirked and said, “ If it weren’t for me either  you or Claire would be dead.” She turned to Michael, “Well I better get going I have demons to hunt, monsters to kill, and idiots to find.” “ Okay, Bye.” Michael said locking the dead bolt behind her. Michael sat own beside me and handed me some beef and broccoli. “So what happened after I passed out?” “Not much I tried waking you but you wouldn’t wake up so I called Cassidy and waited. She showed up and I carried you back to the car and she got Claire since she was lighter and easier to carry. We checked in here and she fixed our shoulder. What I want to know is what happened before you passed out.” I swallowed the food in my mouth, “what do you mean?”  Michael sat his food down and said, “that vampire reacted to you as if it had swallowed something poisonous.” I thought back to the vampires reaction my me and I shrugged, “I don’t know I was just as surprised as he and you were. Wait where’s John.” “ John’s fine he had a minor concussion and should be released later tonight he’s going to get a car and meet us here. Then we’re gonna wait for Claire to get better and head home. But for now me and you are kicking it here tonight.”

 I finished my food and asked Michael if I could take off this bandage yet to shower. He told me he had extra and he could rewrap it. I took of my jeans and stuff and then started un reveling the bandage from my torso.  I had a big bite mark that was still swollen and long scratch marks his nails that went from the top o my left shoulder beside the bite mark across to my right side that ended just below my shoulder. They didn’t look deep enough to cause any real damage.  I didn’t even remember him scratching me but I must have been more focused on the pain in my shoulder. I got in the shower and scrubbed of the dirt and grime the had coated my body and the grease that was in my hair. I took a clean washrag and carefully cleaned the scratches and bite mark with warm water and soap. I got out of the shower and leaned over the sink to peer into the mirror I had bags under my eyes and a small scratch un my right cheek. I closed my eyes and pictured the vampires face after he bit me. I seen the pain in his red eyes and him grabbing his stomach. I finished drying off and walked back out to the main room. Michael insisted on wrapping my shoulder again just to be safe even though I told him I was fine. Eventually I gave I and left him do it. Afterward he turned on the TV an started flipping through the channels.“ Hey look The Vampire Diaries,” he teased. “ I think I’ve had enough vampires for now.” I retorted. He laughed and turned the channel. I looked out the window and  by my estimate we were on the seventh floor. I then got a drink of water and laid down. I was still exhausted even though I had just woken up this evening. After looking at the clock which said 9:15 I rolled over and watched TV with Michael who had settled on Godzilla. I watched as the giant monster destroy Tokyo in black and white until I drifted off to sleep.
