Forgotten

Prologue

　

As I ran through the forest, I felt something freezing touch the back of my neck. I felt a scream in my throat that didn’t make it out. I pushed myself forward, trying to make it to the flash of light I see ahead of me. But as I feel the coldness touch me again I trip on a root sprouting from the ground, I landed face first in dirt, screaming as the blackness swallows me up, trapping me in it’s grasp. Once the blackness has me in it’s hold I hear a voice,“ You cant fight me and win, yet you will carry on after death cause you, my daughter are meant to” .

　

　

　

　

Chapter One

　

I woke up with a sheen of cold sweat all over my body, the sheets on my bed stuck to my body. I looked at my clock to see that it was three in the morning, and knowing that I would be up the rest of the night I untangled myself from the sheets. I got up and went into the bathroom to take a shower. When I got out, I went into my room and searched for my favorite pair of skinny jeans, they were dark and ripped up the sides, I also grabbed a black tee with a pair of sunglasses on the front, I then grabbed my black fur lined snow boots, there my favorite things in the world. I grabbed a pair a socks and jammed my feet into the boot’s, then I grabbed my jacket and ran outside into the falling snow. I then looked across the street at the tall, wide white house, it was weird where it sits behind a long row of tree’s. I quickly turned around and headed towards the forest behind our house, as I started walking down the long path towards the river I felt like something was watching me, I looked around and finding nothing I kept walking forward. When I got to the river I saw a deer drinking from it, I could smell it’s fresh blood pumping through it’s veins, I could see that it could tell I was watching it, stalking it. All I knew was that I was starving and wanted to eat. As I turned towards the deer I saw it turn towards me and I darted the other way and behind a huge tree, then I sniffed the air locating the deer, I then sprang forward catching the deer off guard with my speed. After I grabbed it and snapped it’s neck I then sank my teeth into it, sucking all the nutrients from the dead animal. “ Well, well, well, Luna I see that you were extra hungry this morning” say’s my brother Daniel, I look up blood dripping off my face, “ I was hungry” I said wiping the blood off my face, he came over to the deer and said “ The deer has blood in it still” “ I know, go ahead and get your fill” I nodded toward the deer, he bends down and sinks his teeth in, we have fangs, we tend not to use them unless we have to feed badly. He came up with blood on his face and I laughed, “ What’s so funny?” “ Oh nothing” I say pointing to his bloody face. He laughs, as he wipes his face coming away with a bloodied hand, “ Let’s go wash off” I say as we head closer to the river. I dunk my head in the cold water and watch as the blood flows down, I see Dan dunk his face too. “ What are we gonna do Dan, I want human blood” “ I don’t know Luna, I’m having the craving for it too” We both sniff the air smelling an early morning jogger and my fang’s elongated and I knew my eye’s were red, I looked over at Daniel and saw the same reaction I had to the smell of him, “ Dan, I can’t…” I ground out jumping up and running to were the guy was jogging in the woods, I hear Dan behind me. I see the jogger and pounce fang’s digging into the guys neck paralyzing the guy with venom, “ Luna, no…” my brother tries but unable to stop himself grabs the guy’s wrist and bites down. I inhale deeply getting blood that tastes like warm milk swirled with cinnamon. Once me and Dan finish, we stand up and look at each other. “ Oh my god we killed him” I gasped. “ Luna, calm down we have to think this through” he say’s coming up and hugging me. “ But Dan we killed a human being” I cry, “ I know, but Luna we couldn’t help it, the smell of his blood was too much for us, we couldn’t help it” he says letting me go to check the body, he gasp’s, “ Luna come here”. As I walk over I see what he mean’s, there on the man’s neck was a tattoo of the sun, we look at each other knowing that these are the day walkers. Day walkers are a vampire’s spy, blood slave or feeder, most vampire’s that are rich and older have blood slaves or feeders. “ Dan, we just killed a vampire’s day walker” “ I know” “ What are we gonna do! We all know what happens when you kill another vampire’s day walker, you get a death penalty” I cried. Dan hug’s me tight, “ It will be alright” “ But…” “ Shh…” he say’s covering up my mouth. Our head’s snap up when we hear footstep’s not far from hear, “ Grab the leg’s” Daniel order’s, so I do and with our speed we bolt towards our house. When we get to our backyard I drop the guy’s leg’s and start a fire adding a lot of leaves to the fire then Dan throw’s the body into the blazing fire. I look away as I smell the burning of flesh.
