Isabelle sat in her room all day. She had told her mom that she was feeling ill and didn't want to go into college today. The thought of seeing Mrs Henry would make her brain burst. The sun had started to settle down by the time it turned 6pm. Now she had to go out and find a victim. Isabelle wasn't meant to be like this but now knowing what she was she had to get it over and done with. She never imagined herself as a killer but as Martha said she felt better and more happier at Lady Meyers and that's what Isabelle was missing for her life. Isabelle got changed into some black jeans and a red top with a leather jacket and some black heeled boots. She sneakily got out of the house without her mom or dad knowing and walked to the where her victim could be.

Isabelle crouched down in the shadows behind a tree and stalked her victim. The victim had her bags and was heading to her car to go home after a long day at work. The woman was on the phone talking to her husband. "I'll be home soon." The woman rummaged through her bag to find she was missing her car keys. "I've left my keys in my desk I'll be home I've got to go. I love you Richard." And with that she cancelled the call and started walking back into the building. The building was deserted now, and lights flickered on and off. The noise of dripping tap was echoing throughout the hallway. The woman got to her room and picked her keys up that was sitting on top of the desk. The lady turned around and gasped. "Oh my god! Isabelle you scared me." 

"Hi Mrs Henry." Isabelle moved her hair from her eyes, and smirked a little.

"What are you doing here? Your not supposed to be here at this time. Why wasn't you in class today?" 

"I didn't want to be okay. Is that enough?" 

"No that's not okay Isabelle! Your supposed to come to lessons every day you have a lecture. But you've been late to all my lessons for the past 3 weeks! Remember I can remove you from this course very quickly!" 

"Don't you remember yesterday Mrs? I'm stronger than you." 

"You are a wimpy teenage girl who has a big mouth." 

"You've bullied me enough Henry.. for years now you've bullied me into doing my work, and as I was scared I done my work and buttered up to you but now that's going to stop." Isabelle could feel her blood running through her neck and her veins. She flipped her hair out of her eyes once again.

"Leave me alone Isabelle. Go home your not supposed to be here." Mrs Henry tried to walk away but Isabelle grabbed her by the shoulder. "Ow Isabelle! Your hurting me! Stop." Isabelle pulled Henry back and pushed her against the wall and grabbed onto her neck. "Is...Is..Isabelle.. Yo...You... I.. I...Can't bre...breath." Henry tried to breath out but couldn't. She tried to keep talking but Isabelle didn't listen.  

"Oh shut up you stupid old woman." She threw Henry and sended her flying into the corner of her desk and fell on the floor. "Now I wonder if anyone would miss you?" 

"Wha? What are you talking about? Why have you all of a sudden become evil."  

"Because I am. I'm transitioning into a vampire and the only way for me to become one is to kill and drink a victims blood and I don't want to kill my parents or my friends so I thought I wonder if anyone would miss you." 

"So that's why you're here. Please Isabelle please don't hurt me. I..I have a husband. Please let me go." 

"I can't." Isabelle stood above her now looking down at her. "I don't want to do this, because deep down you was a good teacher.. but I have to Mrs Henry please I just need blood. I don't want to kill you. But I have to." 

"How are you going to kill me?" Mrs Henry had tears running down her face now.  

"I can't do it, I can't kill it's not me. Why does it have to be hard like this?"  

"Can you let me go please?"  

"Yes go." Mrs Henry took her car keys and ran to her car. Isabelle followed her and started to run after her. "You said you'll let me go." Isabelle caught up to her and grabbed her by the scruff of her neck and pushed her hard. Mrs Henry stumbled and fell backwards, bashing her head on the concrete floor hard. Moments later she was surrounded in blood. Her hair was soaked in her own blood and lay lifeless on the cold hard floor. Isabelle knelt down and tears fell from her eyes. She had completed the first stage of her transition. The next was to take the blood of the victim.

Isabelle placed the tips of her fingers in the blood which was staining the floor and held her blood covered fingers towards her face. She tasted a little bit of the blood and spat it back out. The taste was salty and bland, it wanted to make her vomit but she wanted more. She picked up more of the blood and tasted some more. Just then she got an almighty pain in her jaw, at that moment her teeth were coming through. It felt like someone was stabbing her in the gums, she ran to the bathroom and looked in the mirror. Slowly but painfully her vampire teeth were coming through. Her eyes turned black and tiny veins were underneath her eyes. Isabelle was now a vampire, Isabelle thought about why she chose Mrs Henry as her first victim. Maybe because they didn't like each other, maybe because her blood was sweet, but her personality wasn't. Isabelle just wanted to get rid of her, and she couldn't think of a better way to do it, yeah she would most probably regret it in the future weeks, but right now she didn't really care about anything. She cared about her was satisfying her hunger... little did she know this was going to harder than she thought. 

She could hear everything which was outside, the cars going past the building. The night crept up quickly and she could hear crickets in the night. Her hands were stained with blood so she decided to wash them with hot soapy water. Luckily the blood came off with ease, now she had to find a way to hide Mrs Henry's body. As she walked all you could hear was her heels along the concrete floors. She moved the body and wiped up the floors. Once she discarded the paper towels and picked up the lifeless body of her teacher and pulled her over her shoulder. She carried her to the nearest lake in the woods and dumped the body.

As Isabelle neared home she could smell her mothers scented perfume, and the tv was loud. As her mom didn't know she was out she sneaked round the back and go through her window. Isabelle climbed the table and then up the guttering. Her window was open so she could just slip through it. As she went to climb in she was stuck. There was an invisible barrier that prevented her from getting in. She pushed against it but it wouldn't let her through. She had read about it online but only thought it existed on television shows, but didn't know it was true. She tried once more but it repelled her. So she jumped down to the ground without making noise and with her super speed she felt the wind in her hair, it was fresh like she had been waiting for this moment forever. It was easy to get to places, run away if she wanted. The only problem was controlling her blood lust, she had never wanted to take human life she was just a fragile human 2 days ago! She knocked on the door and waited. Her mom opened the door. "Isabelle Phillips! What the hell are you doing get up to your room."  

"Mom I can't! I'm sorry I was out, I wasn't feeling too good and needed some fresh air." 

"Awe baby come in here you must be freezing." As she said that the invisible barrier which prevented her from entering her own home had vanished and she was now free to step over the threshold.
