The Hunter: The Life of Louise

Chapter 21

Once outside Louise takes off in a blur towards the hospital and comes to a stop just around the corner. She puts her hand in her bra and pulls out some cash. "Really hope they use this money on this earth." She says to herself and heads for the main entrance. "It looks exactly the same." She states and heads inside, she pulls out her phone and the time says 7pm, she walks over to a woman sat at the main desk. "Excuse me but do you have the time please?" She asked her.

The woman looks up and smiles at her. "It's exactly 4pm." She tells her. "Thank you." Louise says then changes the time on her phone. "So this world is 3 hours behind ours." She thinks to herself and heads towards the canteen but stops in her tracks as she sees an old man reading a Newspaper. "Excuse me but is that today's date?" She asked him. The man looks at the paper then back up at her. "Yes it is dear." He tells her with a smile. "Thank you so much." She says to him. "2008 and it's February. This world is about a year in front of mine." She thinks to herself and goes to get some food.

Once eaten she decides to find the blood. "I'll try the easy way first." She heads into the shop at the main entrance and buys a notepad and a pen. She heads out and starts walking towards the ward, she spots a handsome doctor. "Hi, can I ask you a few questions please?" She asked him. The doctor can't help but eye her up. "Of course, how may I help you?" He asked her. "I'm writing a paper for college on blood storage and plasma storage. Where do you store it and what's the process behind it?" She asked him. "Well we store it right here in the hospital in fridges as it has to be stored at four degrees then it's warmed up before it goes into a patients body." He tells her.

She pulls out her phone. "Any chance I can take a picture of these fridges?" She asked him with a smile. "Sorry but I can't help you there." He tells her. "Thanks anyway bye." She says and takes off looking for a porter as they will have access. It doesn't take her long for her to find a male porter. She grabs him. "Your going to get me blood from the fridges is that clear?" She asked him as she has his throat and lifts him off the ground with one hand. "Yea I'll help you just don't hurt me." He panics.

15 minutes later Louise is leaving the hospital with a bag full of blood. She blurs back to the house and enters. Amon is stood there in full vampire face growling and ready to ponce. "Wait I have blood." She says holding her hand up, she takes the bag off and unzipped it, throwing him a bag of blood. He bites into it draining it, she tossed him three more and he did the same to them.

After he's drained the 4th one his human features come back. "I'm so sorry Lou." He tells her with genuine sadness in his voice. "It's fine." She says brushing it off. "It turns out that it's 2008 here and they are 3 hours behind our earth." She tells him. "Did anyone recognise you?" Amon asked her. "Not that I know of. So are we just waiting here until the sun goes down?" She asked him. "Doesn't look like we'll have to wait much longer, it feels cold for August." He states. "It's February here." Louise corrects him. "Explains why it's nearly sunset." He says with a smile.

When it's dark enough for Amon they leave the house. "Where should we go?" Louise asked him. "I'd say either your grandparents house or your parents." He suggested to her. "Would they even exist in this world?" Louise asked him. Amon just shrugged. "I don't see why not. Technically this worlds Louise isn't related to them." She nods and she links his arm as they walk towards Brookfield, and head towards her grandparents house.

They stand outside the front door and knock. Ruth comes to the door, sees the beautiful blonde and very attractive male. "Hello may I help you?" She asked them. "Hi. Are you Ruth Johnston? Married to a Jack Johnston?" Louise asked her. "Yes. Can I ask what this is about?" Ruth asked her. "Does Jack work for the Hunters Council?" Louise asked her, Ruth's eyes widened. "Who are you?" She asked again a bit more sternly. "This is going to sound strange but you have to believe me. My name is Louise Johnston, my mum is Joyce Johnston I was born 26th May 1989. I'm a Vampire Hunter blessed by the Angel Jophiel to be her champion." Louise tells her.
