Chapter 15 'training'

Caroline's pov

I stare at the human....well thing, chained up to a wire fence in the middle of the room. It has black lines with a red patch near the top spread out underneath it's eyes, it's actual eyes bright red where the white part should be, but the blue in its eyes is still there like normal. I look to its mouth and see normal teeth, apart from two on either side of the mouth. they look like fangs; this whole thing is just creeping me out to be honest. I turn to Ben, my eyes wide and my heart beating a million miles an hour.

"w-what is that thing Ben?" I stutter nervously. he sighs and looks at me. then he walks over to the thing. 

"this...thing. is a vampire." As soon as the words leave his mouth my whole world crumbles. i thought they were just made up to scare little kids? this whole time they have been real and my brother knew about it...

"w-what...that can't be...they are made up to scare people." I stutter nervously, because despite the fact that i don't want to believe in them...i can't deny what is right in front of my eyes. I take a step close into the room, closer to the thing.

"unfortunately, they are not made up. I'm not the only one that knows about this. Dad and Jake know as well, so did mum" he speaks clearly, as if the thing next to him doesn't phase him in the slightest. 

"why...why is it chained up?" Before Ben can reply the vampire chuckles and looks up at me with a now normal face. 

"because they like to torture and kill us sweetheart. and I bet you're going to do the exact same thing. you're the real monsters. not us." He spits at me, making my heart beat a million miles an hour. I look to Ben and stare at him with a shocked expression.

"y-you torture them?.." I can't believe it...does my sweet brother Jake even do this...

"yes. but we only torture them if they are stupid enough to be caught. they are monsters that have no morals. they will kill for fun. never be fooled by one Caroline." 

"b-but...what if they aren't all evil.." I stare at the now normal looking person chained up, covered in blood and sweat. 

"they are all evil, trust me Caroline. you came to me and told me you want to be able to protect yourself, right? well this is the perfect opportunity to learn. you can train with us, hunt with us. you can become strong. you won't ever have to feel weak again." I process his words as I stare at the person chained up. I turn my face to look at my brother, not showing any emotions.

"I'll do it. Teach me to be strong Ben." He nods in agreement and grabs my wrist, pulling me out of the room. 

"one thing though, dad and Jake can not know about this yet. they didn't want you to get involved with this stuff." I hesitate for a moment, not really sure how i feel about lying to my dad and brother. But flash backs of Tyler beating me come to my mind. 

"okay, I wont say anything" He nods and smiles at me. 

"well then...lets get started with the training" He smiles while he pulls the door back and the Vampire hisses when he sees us. I look sideways, to Ben and he looks to me. we smile at each other and look back to the Vampire; knowing exactly what comes next.
