“Huh!” I gasped for air as I hear a loudly deafening knock on my door. “Who’s there?” I inquired as I rose to my feet squeezing both my eyes trying to make my surroundings look a bit clearer and started tapping my cabinet to look for the flashlight. It’s too dark and I wonder why of all the sudden we’re running out of light tonight.
What the heck I’m doing? I’m supposedly be reviewing my lesson for tomorrow’s exam! I reminded my self.
I can not stop from looking around trying to roam my eyes in our front yard when I saw no one after those almost destroying knocks on my door. I think I’m just hallucinating again. And it mostly happened to me when I’m alone in this house. But I also wonder why I feel like I’m not the normal me since that night: my debut party. I started seeing strange shadow roaming around our house at night, and I started feeling like there’s someone who’s always staring at me watching my moves. I refused to tell Mom for I know how stress she is with her work.
“Is anyone around?” In my lightly low tone I whispered to the air as I point my flashlight around the yard trying to search for whoever knocked.
Our house isn’t what most people dreamed. It is alone in an almost jungle area where it took about half an hour before you could reach the city from here.
We got slightly high concrete wall which makes me feel a bit relieved to stay here alone despite how creepy this place look.
Mom is a Doctor and works in a hospital from 12 midday until midnight and sometimes only got home early in the morning so I had no other choice but to stay here alone almost every single night even when I was in elementary, but we had a maid back then and I wonder why Mom didn’t get new one, or maybe because I’m older enough to took care of myself and look after the house.
I sometimes invites Mela and Christie: my friends for a sleep over but today, Mela’s busy with some school works while Christie had to go with her family to visit their sick grandparents in the province.
A cold wind breeze lightly blow my hair which in some case made me fear for it. It’s not just a normal wind breeze. It’s freaking cold as ice and that’s impossible to happen for my white off-shouldered dress didn’t even move. It’s like someone intentionally blew my hair away wiping it to the side of my head to show more of my neck and collar bone.
Quickly I headed back inside and locked the door when I saw no one outside and had me almost jumped out of the roof when I saw a tall, pale, mysterious guy in a all black outfit standing in front of me. Like a statue he stare at me so calmly like he is loving the move I made around.
“Who are you?” I immediately pointed my flashlight at him. He lift his palms trying to cover his eyes. “How did you got here?” In my nervous almost shaking tone I asked him.
“Hrr!” I hear him growled like a lion and took a step forward when the flashlight struck his eyes and it freaks my coward soul as I saw what his eyes looks like.
“Ahh!” I quickly headed out of our house the moment I realized that he wasn’t a human. No one will probably say that he is once you see his red eyes, sharply fangs and a white pale skin which is a clear thing that he is? A freaking…
“Vampire!” I screamed out of my lungs as I continue to run out of our house. I continue to gasped for air as I keep on running forward in the fastest way that I can.
Of course we all know that Vampire never exist but in my case and with mom, we do believed in that. We believe that they are something existing and going around us but our eyes can’t just barely see them.
Mom even got a picture of a wolf back in her high school where she’s out for a campus camping and accidentally lost her way back to their place.
I think Mom’s beliefs and respect towards these creatures is what also have me believe that somewhat they exist and even had a high hope that one day just like her I wish for a chance to also capture one of these creatures and today! Yes, today. I wasn’t lucky and I think this is the end point of my wish to see them as at this moment, I didn’t just saw them but they came into our house and pay us a visit and that freaks me out. Had me almost killed standing in front of him if my legs didn’t do the freaking job and have me ran like a little rat chased by a hungry wild cat.
“Mom!” I called for her on my phone but she’s not picking it up. I feel like almost flying with the way how fast I ran through this dark woods but because of fear it feels like I’m just running on a plain clean road.
“No!” I screamed when I saw that guy again standing in front of me already like he just simply stood there waiting for me to arrive.
I stopped and slowly pointed the flashlight right into his face and saw him giving me a malicious smirk on his lips, this time showing a bit of his fang like he is trying to attract me with those but there’s no way that I’m going to love it cause it looks f*cking deadly fearful. Then in just a single blink 2 new girl and three guy appeared right on his back who looks exactly just like him. They’re pale, got red eyes and fangs too. But they’re way too aggressive than him which I can tell the way they licked their lips and had their tongue wet their mouth. I don’t see any blood stink with them but I know that they would got one once they had me eaten as their midnight snacks.
“Relax,” His freaking whisper to those wild vampires behind him is what had me sweat way more drastically. It’s cold of course but with so much deadly thing that’s going around I would totally had your soul slap a hundred times if you’ll say that you won’t sweat as I do.
What is he up to? Why he is here and what do he need from me? Why are they here for me?
“What do you want from me? I will tell you that I didn’t taste good!” I try to keep my voice a little sarcastic and high trying to sound brave in front of them despite how messy and pale I look now which in a blink I know someone would say that I already got the same skin color as them.
“Yes, you are!” Growled by the guy with a brown hair over his shoulder. I wonder who’s the oldest and who’s the youngest for they all look like they’re just in their mid-twenties. But it’s no surprise for me since I got a little knowledge about them for secretly studying and researching about vampires for more than 6 years. Mom didn’t knew about it. I know that Vampire didn’t got old even if they’re in their hundreds or thousands of age and that’s what had me back then wish to be one of them. I want to be an immortal. I want to live a thousand years but now everything changed. I hate to be one them.
“Nobody touch her! She’s only mine!” Loudly announced by the guy in the middle and slightly opened his mouth and extended his arm at me. “Come with us and be my Queen and I’ll let you rule the world.” He murmured. His eyes transitioned from dark red to a dark black and his hair color changed too. Some stripes like a piece of tattoo started to light up around his entire body.
“I finally met the Queen!” He growled over to the night sky and was about to touch my arms when a loudly deafening wolf sound echoed all over the woods that have most of the tree leaves fall down. Then several wolf sounds echoed again and this time I can hear anger in their growled like they’re trying to warn these Vampires to not make a wrong move.
It wasn’t obvious enough but I kept rolling my eyes around as the trees continue to shakes itself.
“They’re here!” Said by the female short-haired Vampire and was about to attack me when something as heavy as mountain of rocks hit the ground that almost had me kneel down.
For no reason, those growls sounds now became a voice to my air as I understand the way how these wolfs growls. They are now talking in the language that I speak and I had clearly no idea why is this happening to me of all the sudden.
“Get the Queen!” Said by the Vampire leader and faster than the blink of my eye they attack with their fangs out ready to bite me and their long fingernails ready to scratch and ruin my whole face.
“Ahhh!” All I do was screamed with my palms covering my face as I saw them getting more and more closer to me.
I want to run away but how? When I’m stuck in the middle of the these wild creatures. It feels like I’m their prey and I just stood here waiting for whoever of them will get lucky to eat me.
“Come to me!” Two vampire lady came and grabbed both my arms and I can feel them aching the way they forcefully pull me away.
“No!” I tried to let go but a scratch of one of these vampire’s finger ended up hurting my left cheek. Dang it!
“Ugh!” I mourned to pain as I feel it ache despite the fear I’m feeling right on that time.
I guess this is maybe the reason why they don’t live with us, humans. Cause they’re way too superior than us. They’re aggressive and their supernatural powers is what will have most humans slave for them.
Faster than the milliseconds the two lady vampire are now on the ground: lying unconsciously with their throat cuts deeper then slowly they disappear like a smoke as their body slowly became a gray-colored ash mixing with the brown soil.
Slowly I traveled my eyes from the toe to the head of this mysterious guy standing in front of me.
He smiles sweetly at me like we knew each other for a long time. The world goes slow for us while those Vampires and Werewolfs keeps taking each other down.
Uniquely, he looks too different from anyone. I can tell that he’s also a vampire but his appearance is just exactly how most humans tried to portrait a living Vampire: tall, red eyes, perfect jawline, pale skin, long blonde hair just over his shoulder and a sweet smile that would have anyone fall for it. I would say that he’s the most handsome guy that I ever saw in my entire life.
“I’d been waiting for you…” He slowly extended his arms and my freaking sh*t body didn’t even move or react like it’s allowing him to do whatever he wanted.
My body feels calm having him around and for no reason I unconsciously smiled back at him and slowly extended my hands. The fear that I’m feeling earlier suddenly disappeared like a bubble bursted the moment he arrived. He’s like me living medicine…he comforts my scared heart.
“Don’t be afraid to take the hands of a guy who already vowed to protect you at all cost,” He added in a sweet-gentle sound which made me trust him even more. I think he knew me very well.
