Where The Blood Lies

Chapter one: Even In Death There Is Light

Beca's POV:
Why are people so afraid of dying? I mean it's liberating...for me it was anyway. I died a noble death you might say, or a completely cliché one, it's your opinion. The year I died was 1918, I was alone...surrounded by other bodies in war. now you might be thinking, you're a woman, why were you in war? well, I was sick of playing a role everyone told me I had to be. So, I changed my appearance a little and it was quite easy to fool the men, although I do have the right equipment down there anyway. before you ask, I was born with male genitals, everyone thought I was a freak. even my parents thought so too...I despised them. so, I up and left and joined the war. I thought that if I left, there wouldn't be a problem in their lives anymore. well that turned out to be true...they didn't even acknowledge that I was gone. which I completely understood, I mean who wants to take care of a freak for the rest of their lives? Anyway, let me tell you the oh so tragic story of how I left this god forsaken earth. I was running onto the battlefield surrounded by other soldiers. I don't think of them as friends, I wasn't there to make friends...I was there to die. Anyone with a brain could see that I hated myself. I'm going off track, anyway, we were halfway done killing Germany soldiers. There were only me and twenty other men left. We spread out to find the rest of the soldiers that were left to brutally slaughter them. I was with my number two Sargent, now that I think about it I should have went alone...

Flashblack-1886;The forest:
"Private! Go ahead of me I need to make sure we are in the right place." My Sargent told me while falling back to check his map. "Yes sir." I said as I continued walking forward, checking all my angles. I was a few meters ahead when all a sudden I hear someone behind me, "They could be anywhere you know." I jumped in fright Turning around pointing my rifle at him in surprise, "who are you?!" I shouted. The man smirked but I noticed he had the same uniform as I did. The mysterious man stood there resting against a tree smirking at me. "Sargent Peters is behind me, where is the rest of your platune?" I asked him confused, where did this guy even come from? He sighed heavily, pushing off the tree "I'm Luke." Clearly ignoring my question he apparently had some of his own to be asking. "Have any family where you come from?" Luke asked me curiously. I said nothing holding onto my gun tightly, still staring at him confused, checking behind him to see if Sargent Peters was behind us. Luke nodded into silence "look...not to burst your bubble or anything but, I know what you are." luke said nonchantley. I stopped immediately and turned to him. he smiled at me mischievously "I know you're a woman...and I'm okay with that. hell, your an outstanding soldier private Mitchell." luke said honestly to me. I huffed "how do you know my name? Where is your platune?!" I asked him angrily. luke shrugged "I just want to ask you one thing?" I glared at him in confused silence. luke continued "do you want to live forever or do you want die like an insignificant person that you are?" Luke asked me stepping forward slowly. I tensed reading my gun at him "what are you talking about?" I asked him angrily, pointing the barrel of my gun straight to his chest. luke raised his hands in surrender "I'm talking about living with a purpose private Mitchell." He said nonchantley. I shook my head at him "what the fuck are you talking about?" I asked him incredulously, He smiled at me "I've seen you fight private and I think you have meaning for this life and more. I want to give you something...a gift if you will." He smiled at me deviously all I want you to do is watch..." He said grabbing a knife out of his boot, I tensed reading my finger at the trigger of my gun. He saw me tense even more "it's ok, I'm just gonna show you something." He told me reassuringly. I stood there confused watching as he slowly put the knife to his wrist and cut a line over his right wrist. I watched still confused as blood dropped down his wrist slowly, but seconds later his wrist started to magically heal by itself. I gasped loudly and back away from him "what the hell are you?!" I shouted backing quickly away from him frightened. He looked at me and smiled "I'm what is known as a vampire." he told me honestly. This guy is clearly insane and not part of my platune, he must be disguising himself, I thought as I exhaled harshly turning around quickly, running into the Forrest as fast as I could. I looked over my shoulder to see if he was still following me but he was nowhere in sight. I turned my head back around to see him standing there deviously smiling at me. I halted "leave me alone!" I shouted backing away from him afraid. "look, I know how bad you want to die. I can sense it, I can give it to you." He said softly to me, walking towards me. I was breathing erratically, my thoughts going wild inside my head, as I kept backing up. I looked up to see him waiting for a response. "Back off!" I screamed as I lifted my gun reading my hand on the trigger. He smiled stopping right in his tracks "To live forever is the most amazing gift you could ever receive. your wish is to die, to be no longer. what I can give you is death and life at the same time." The man told me softly. I exhaled a breath nervously, "I will kill you where you stand! You are not apart of my platune!" I hissed at him preparing to but a bullet right into this mans chest. The blonde man looked at me pitifully "you have no one, you're worthless. I can make you into something even god himself wouldn't even dream of making." He told me smiling at me. I was about to pull the trigger when all of a sudden there was gunshots coming straight at us, I jumped up and ran away as fast as I could. I glanced back and saw the man standing there clearly not phased as there was German soldiers shooting right behind him. He smiled at me wide and put his hand up to wave at me, I huffed and ran a few meters away from the chaos to reload my gun that I didn't have time to do before, Luckily the strange man wasn't trying to kill me at least that was what I thought at the time. As I was hastily reloading my weapon I heard screams of men. I pulled my weapon up ready to fire in the fog but the screams suddenly stopped. "What the?" I put my gun at my side cautiously walking into the fog where I left the strange man named Luke. I gasped in horror at what I saw Luke doing, he was biting a German soldier's neck, as if he was feasting on him. Luke pulled back gasping for air with blood pouring down his mouth to his own neck, smiling in a daze. Then he suddenly looked at me, his sharp fangs poking out of his mouth. His eyes black as night. He then suddenly got up and charged at me. I pulled my weapon up firing at his chest. There he was, still charging at me. I quickly acted and dodged to the left putting my dukes up, preparing to fight this monster in all its glory. He once again laughed mockingly putting his fists up as well. I screamed as I charged him, my fists hitting him everywhere i knew to put down a man. He still stood there smiling as he took every last punch to his body. He then punched me quickly knocking me down on my back. "It will all be over soon Beca...because even in death there is light." Then it all went black.

I suddenly woke, breathing in harshly sitting up quickly, looking around petrified. I was in a whole another place, somewhere underground. "well, well, look who's finally awake." Luke said coming in, smiling at me proudly. I gasped as I shot up preparing to fight this monster all over again, but I felt more weak than I've ever been. I spoiled down on the floor exhausted. Aww you must be hungry. Don't worry I have another gift for you young one." Luke told me. I looked up at him on the floor feeling as if I've had the life drained out of me. he smiled at me "hold on." he told me leaving to go into another room. I sat there holding my stomach in pain, luke then came back with a maiden "here." I looked at him confused "what am I supposed to do with her?" I asked him impatiently. Luke chuckled "I seem to have forgotten an important part of the transformation didn't i?" Luke asked me. I looked at him confused. luke sighed "well to complete the transformation into immortality...you have to feed, and what we feed on is human blood." luke told me honesty. I looked at him in shock "what are you taking about?! What did you do to me?!" I shouted at him incredously, standing up and groaning in pain. luke sighed heavily "you have to. trust me once you have a taste, it will be all you ever crave." luke told me smiling mischeviously at me, his eyes turning fully black once again and his fangs sprung out as he roughly bit into the girls neck. I smelled the blood instantly, I felt my teeth hurt suddenly, I lifted my fingers to my mouth and felt something sharp in my mouth. My eyes widened as I felt fangs. Luke ripped his mouth off the maiden and pushed her roughly towards me "drink now" luke told me firmly. She pushed up against me dazed, I swallowed audibly, looking at her veins pulsing, I could hear her heart beating so loud in my ears. "I can't..." I said lowly. luke came up to me "I know you want to, your eyes tell all." luke said next to me softly. I looked at him smiling at me reassuringly. I exhaled as I looked back to the maidens neck, I slowly opened my mouth and stuck my fangs were Luke's were and bit slowly into her neck. the maiden moaned loudly, I got turned on suddenly and bit into her more roughly, holding onto her tightly. she tried to pull away from me but I growled and held onto her tightly. she screamed as I bit deeper into her neck. soon she went limp in my arms, I pulled away and breathed out in relief. I felt her warm blood all over my face and dripping down my neck. I smiled dopely as I looked to luke and he smiled at me proudly "good girl." Luke praised me softly. I dropped the girl in my arms to the floor and turned to luke "more." I told him firmly. Luke smiled wide at me "as you wish." luke led me out of the room to find more, and that is where my lust for blood became all too much for me to handle.
