The Vampire tales : Damon Salvatore

16. That night

11:35 pm
Kris and katherine are heading back home in a car.

"the party was fun!" Kathy said.

"Yeah, except that Damon guy was a little weird" Kris said while taking a right turn.

"Really? You think so? I thought you were really hitting it off with him."

"Um. Not really. How long has your friend Saivy known him for?"

"They met a few weeks back"

"Ummhmm..."

Kris was about to say something else but suddenly he hit the brakes hard. They both felt a strong jerk as the car deaccelerated. There was something in the middle of the road. A big obstacle. Perhaps someone. The car couldn't halt in time and it hit that obstacle hard. The car smashed into it and went flying in the air. In that split second Kris could see the figure that hit them. Their car turned upside down and hit the ground with a big thud. Katherine was unconscious and had an injury on her head. Kris was startled and covered with blood, but he managed to get out of the car. He was bleeding from his forehead. As he emerged from the car he looked around and that figure was still there.

He said, "What the hell! You have resorted to these Cheap tricks now?"

"Huh, you are the one who began them"

The figure said with a manly voice. He was tall with dark brown hair. He had a tint of European features but it was difficult to guess his nationality. He continued,

"I'm only here to take what is mine and give you what you deserve"

"you never gave me what I deserved. That's why I had to take matters into my own hand." Kris said as he tidied up his coat, "this coat was expensive. Who's going to pay for dry cleaning now?"

"I will"
The mysterious man said as he approached kris.
"right after you pay for the damage you have done, Kristoffer."

He then looked him in the eye and readjusted his coat.

"I go by Kristoff now, Lazarus"

The moment he said that, the guy named Lazarus grabbed him by the collar and swung him in the air. Kris went flying in the air and fell on top of their car that laid upside down after the accident. The car jerked and katherine regained her consciousness. Her heart was still racing with fear and adrenaline. She opened her eyes slightly and managed to say,

"kris... What happened? Are you okay? Kris..."

Kris got up from the car and looked around. Lazarus was nowhere to be seen. He heard katherine's voice, weak from the traumatic experience.

"yes darling"

kris responded and rushed inside the car.
"It's okay. I'm right here."

He grabbed katherine and pulled her out of the car.

"you're bleeding. Call...call an ...ambulance"
