When I came to my senses I found myself in in a small room. There was a short bed in the corner. The walls were painted green with dark green fluer de lis symbols all over. The door opened to reveal the man with the brown eyes I saw earlier. "Hello." he repeated. "What is your purpose here young one?"
I stared at him. Why was this vampire talking to me so humanely? Why didn't he just kill me? "Nicarus sent me here on an assassination. He said you could help me." I explained to him.
He looked at me, dumbfounded. Then put his hands on my shoulders. "Well why didn't you just say so. A friend of Nicarus's is a friend of mine." "Thank you mister." "Please call me Giovanni."He smiled warmly at me.
"Come, we'll talk in my living room." Giovanni led me out of the small room into a much larger room. It was very open. I could see a kitchen and a hallway. He sat down on a couch. I kept standing up, taking in my surrounding's. "Please sit." He motioned toward another empty chair. I sat down.
"So who is your target miss.." "Rosa" I smiled. "Rosa, what a lovely name."He smiled back and waited. I didn't know why at first but then I remembered that he asked me a question. "Oh his name is Alesky Siatek. Have you heard of him?" "Ah yes I know him he is a pope. His house is in the Palac Pionte. I actually know a way to get in." "Well Nicarus said you were the one to go to if I needed help." I said, feeling relieved that this wasn't going to be hard.
"Well Nicarus is very wise. Now I assume you would like to know how I came to be and why my eyes are brown." He stared at me intently, like he knew he was right which of course he was. "Ummmm yes, if you don't mind." I looked down, felling a little shy.
"No need to be shy my young friend. Everyone wants to know." I looked back up to see him staring up at the ceiling. "I was changed when I was only 29. I don't know who changed me. Odd isn't it." He looked at me then back up at the ceiling. "After a few years I was a healthy new vampire. Still young, not very wise. Soon I met Nicarus. We became best friends." He stared into my eyes. "He offered to let me join him. To kill many people. I refused the offer though because I didn't want to kill. He was a little dissapointed but soon I had to leave. We would run into each other from time to time. He, hoping I would change my mind and join him. But I still turned him down." He paused for awhile.
"What about your eyes?" I reminded him. "What do you eat?" "Oh yes I drink from animals." He watched me closly waiting for my reaction. "Animals?" I asked agian. "Yes when you drink herbivores they make your eyes turn brown. Carnivores don't really matter but any animal will make your eyes turn brown." I raised my eyebrows "Wow I never knew that." I said, suprised.
Giovanni all of a sudden got up and walked human pace over to the kitchen. I wondered why. He came back with a cup in his hands. I smelled blood but it smelled wierd. It smelled like a forest. It was strange. "Here try some."
He handed me the cup. I looked in and saw light red blood. I took a sip. I didn't really taste anything. The rest I dumped down my throat. I could really taste it this time and I spitted it back out. "Ewww, uh, sorry." There were blood splatters all over the dark brown rug Giovanni had. "No problem." He quickly got up and rolled up the rug. He left for a moment to stash it away.
When he came back I said "That was horrible. You actually drink this stuff?" He smiled "Yes. Don't worry you get used to it after a while. Rosa you have a little bit here." He pointed to the left corner of his mouth. I wiped my hand on the right corner of my mouth to see that there was a little bit of blood. I looked down, really embarrassed.
"Don't worry your fine. Now may I ask you why your eyes are bright red instead of dark?" I looked at him and said "I drink humans blood but not directly and not bad people whoes souls have been tarnished by thier sins." He leaned off the couch and said "Fascinating."
I nodded, unsure of what to do know. "Well would you like to stay here and we'll conjure up a plan to kill your next target?" Giovanni asked. "Of course tell me all that you know." He brought out a map and we started plotting together. I like Giovanni he was a great guy. He felt like a father figure to me. I was glad I got to meet him.
