Blood Lust

Chapter 3: Dawn

She was so focused on reading the book that the guy he made friends with in the library "Vampires and Slaves"

She was called out to eat for dinner and in shock her grandmother was just staring at her blankly

"hal-eommonieeee... You scared the soul out of me" she said

"why did you come back!" she grab at her collar and was strangling her "You shouldn't be here... Go back now! My daughter~ please" she said

All she did was to tap her hand and doesn't want to hurt her

"Now... They are lurking around our house" she said as she look at the owl outside the window

"ha---hall--eommonie" she called but now, her grandmother's grip is getting tighter and tighter

"Eomma!" her father shouted and took her hands off her daughter. She crawled away from her grandmother and she was fastly breathing for air.

"Honey~ forgive what your grandmother did to you okay? She was just in a deep mood" her father said

She was literally shaking out of fear that someday it might be worse than this. She questioned herself why is it that bad things happen around her while she was in this weird neighborhood

After a while, she picked herself together and went down for dinner. "Appa... Do you believe in vampires?" she asked her dad as she sat down and all she received was a glare from her grandmother and her father

"vampires... Now they have a reason to comeback again" Her grandmother commented and laughed

"Vampires are just silly stories honey... Why'd you suddenly asked?" he said

"I am just getting curious about it" I replied

After eating he guided my grandmother to her bed and I did the dishes. As I were washing them I heard something like a song and it is making me want to go for it

The lyrics goes:

Countless stars, countless moons
I was wandering in the woods of questions
I followed that light in the dark

You call me beyond the line
I'm calling for you

She was out of her mind in the moment but her Dad immediately woke her up to reality

"My dear, Mavy... I will continue the dishes now and just go to your room. One thing that I want to tell you is that, whoever knocks on your window, doors or anything that you don't or you even know, don't ever let them in... Okay?" his father said

"why?" she asked

"no more questions... Just don't let anyone in even though you know him or her" he said as he tightly gripped on her shoulder

"okay" she replied and head to her room

She opens the book again and read

"Vampire superstition thrived in the Middle Ages, especially as the plague decimated entire towns. The disease often left behind bleeding mouth lesions on its victims, which to the uneducated was a sure sign of vampirism."

She was deeply reading the book when there was a sudden knock on my window.

She looked at it but no one was there. She continued reading "vampires don't give you mercy as they struck people down with just one bite--"

She heard a song again and she was out of her mind for a moment

The song goes like this

I'm walking to you
It connects the two worlds
My red eyes
(Oh)
I'm walking to you
Until we reach the new world

She was slowly heading to the window, she opened it and a cold breeze welcomed her. There was this shadowy figure started to appear in front of her. Before she feels it, a sudden break was heard along the hallways.

"Close the window!" her grandmother shouted as she throw things to her

She came to her senses

"Grandma... What are you doing? Are you okay? I thought you were asleep" She told her as she approached her grandmother

"Are you hurt my baby?" she said as she searched her granddaughter's body and suddenly hugged her "My Luna" she mentioned a name but whose name is it?

"Luna? Who is she?" she asked her grandmother

"My precious baby" she replied "it's too early. Don't leave me" she said as she patted her granddaughter's head

"Eomma" her father came, right in the moment and hold her

"ohh.. Luna came back" she said as she pointed at me

"hal-eommoniee... I am your granddaughter and who is Luna?" she asked her but her father quickly cuts in before hearing what her grandmother's reply

"Mavy, you should go to bed because your grandma is sooo tired and you know her illness" her father said

She was thinking so hard, what was she doing by the window and all she remember is that she was reading a book and suddenly can't remember when did she go there and who is this Luna that her grandma was talking about

She went to bed with sooo many questions that was running in her head. She doesn't know what to do but after how many minutes, she fell asleep

§§§§§§§§§§§

She woke up in a very mysterious place, she was walking in a house that is quite old. The floors were shreeking as she walks by. There were statues and old books. She wandered around and was caught up in a dead end.

She was about to turn around but she heard someone talking behind the walls. She stuck her ear on the wall "what should we do? She was bitten in the neck" a man's voice said

The conversation was slowly fading away but her curiosity was very strong that she wants to break the wall. She touched everything that she sees and later on felt something about the light holders . She quickly turned it around and it opened

The voice was fading

"I can't feel her pulse and she's so cold" the man continued "she's either be dead or she is something else"

"she must be kept and be locked in a cell where she can't escape" a woman said

"but she's still your daughter" the man said

"my daughter's dead" she replied "she died..."

"who died?" she asked

"wh----"

"Mavy!! It's time to wake up... We must go around the town to get some grocery supplies" his father said

"Wait... Why did you wake me up... I am in an important meeting" she told her dad but he just laughed

"come on... Prepare yourself" he said and went out of the room
