Timeless Love

The Transition: Damon

I wake up to see white puffy walls. I am in a confinement chair, my head is pounding, and all of my senses are on high. "Mr.Salvatore? What are you?" I hear over the intercom. I scream in agony as the noise of the voice pulses through every cell in my brain. "I don't know anything I swear just please let me go." My throat is gasping for some thing that I conclude is water. "Mam?" I shout out with every ounce of energy I have. "What Mr.Salvatore?" "Can I please have a drink of water?" "Tell me all that you know first." "Okay... My brother Stefan and I were out in the woods playing behind our house one day and then all of the sudden a man appeared out of nowhere. He said that if we don't come to him, and drink his blood that we will die an indecent death. Much to our chagrin we both obliged. We drank from his pulsing veins, and when we were through he sprang forward to one of us at a time. I was first, and the last thing that I felt was his cold, dead hands around my neck. And then I blacked out. Now I'm here and I'm dying of thirst." "Just a moment Mr.Salva-" "MY NAME IS DAMON!" I say in a very hostile and hurting way. "I'm sorry mam I don't know what's wrong with me." "It's ok Mr...Damon. I'm having Alissa bring your water." Suddenly I can smell her. Not her perfume, not her hair, but I can smell the purple blood flowing through her blue and red veins. At that very moment a beautiful blonde woman, with O+ blood no doubt, walks into my "cell". As she walks into the room I can hear her heart murmur. She's scared of me I can see the sweat beading on her forehead. How do I know these things?! Am I going insane?! "Mr.Damon here is your drink. Is there anything else?" " Yes ,Alissa, was it?" She nods her innocent little head. " Well I'm a bit hungry too. Why don't you come over here so I can have a taste?" She backs away is fear. She has every right to be, I'm not in my right mind right now. Then before I realize it I am looking into her eyes so closely I can see her soul. "Come here and let me eat now." I say in a hypnotic voice. I can't control it, what happens is the inner demon in me. As she closes in on me I can see my vision break into red dots and clouds. She leans down and I press my hand against a bulging vein in her neck. I lean forward, whisper "I'm sorry", and bite down as hard as I can and drink. At first she screams and tries to pull away, but my long new fangs keep her connected to me. After I drink about fifty percent of her blood I release her and speak in the hypnotic voice again. " What do you all think I am?" "A blood sucking demon, a vampire." I realize in astonishment that she is right. The senses on high, the craving of blood, and most of all the sense that I am the most evil thing on this planet. My life is over. What am I going to tell my family? ... I'm not gonna tell them. I will just leave and never return. How can I knowing that I may kill my friends and/or family?
