CHASING

Chapter 2

Klaus glazed at the cafe, darkened but full of life as the beer mugs began to fill the soldiers.

He had his head back and stared in to the ceiling, contemplating another month in this hell hole he couldn't take.

"Monsieur , another beer?." Said a beautiful bright voice, instantly interrupting his thoughts.

He followed the voice to a pair of the most deepest blue eyes embedded in a fair perfect skin following the now still red lips.

For a moment he lost all words as he fell deeper into her glassy eyes.

"Monsieur?!",she repeated angrily.

"Whats your name?!",Klaus said cockily suddenly developing interest in something other than himself.

"Order something or leave."she said sternly,after the initial shock of his beautiful british accent,"we need the table for waiting customers,"

He looked around to the hoards of British soldiers now piling into the cafe with young girls highly drunk at their sides.

It was night already and the cafe was transforming into a party.

Clearly one Klaus could never enjoy.

He steadily rose slammed the currency he had in his pocket ,in to the table and left the cafe after taking a long look into her eyes.

Caroline grabbed the francs he threw and placed them in to her apron. Then bean wiping the table and picking up his empty mug. She indicated to the group standing next to the doorway onto the vacant able and scurried in between party to behind the counter.

She looked at the time ,and her heart clenched tightly into her chest. She would never make it tonight.

The room was gushing and alive. And it was all hers alone to handle !

She would surely be here till the first light of dawn cleaning after them.

Dejected and disappointed between the commotion she slipped into the back door and out into the moonlight.

She didn't bask into the full moons beauty instead she was disgusted by the monotony it held for her. Her prison.

Suddenly something wasn't right.

She looked about the vacant street and headed toward a insistent gut feeling.

She ran about till she closed into an alleyway. Pitch black dark but she led through until the opening at the other end. The forest opened up and so did the scene of the crime.

A mute girl stood before her screaming without a sound ,she didn't move an inch.

There was someone who had grasped her tight . His head was embedded in the curve of her shoulder. Blood dripping down her shoulder.

Klaus looked up from shoulder to find a the same blonde waitress as before standing shocked staring at him.

Blood covering his face he started to move towards her before a fiasco began. But stopped as soon as he saw the change on the blondes face.

Her eyes dilated and her veins became visible around her eyes.

And suddenly her mouth opened to reveal the growing fangs.

Klaus ,was shocked stunned and for the second time that night this girl had completely spellbound him.

He kept staring for a few minutes and noticed the blonde girl did not move a flinch.

She remained in the vampire state but did not move while staring at his victim.

After understanding her motive, Klaus thrust his victim into Caroline's arms.

Caroline still stood completely motionless as the victim began to fall from her arms.

In the confusion Caroline grabbed the woman more firmly and began to bite into her aggressively .

Getting greedier and greedier every second.

Klaus stood there watching and amusing himself.

Just when he thought the victim was on the breaking point , he moved towards Caroline,

"Thats enough love ,i think you've had at it longer than needed."

But before he would remove the victim,Caroline subsided his grasp and speed her way further into the alley way behind her.

Klaus more concerned followed her. To find Caroline sitting on the floor holding the victims head in one hand and her body in the other. With her face ,hands ,chest drenched with blood.

Yet her quiet sobbing was the only thing Klaus noticed.

"What have i done!!" Caroline began to plead.

For the first time Klaus started feeling pity for the poor blonde girl.

Her walked up to her and bent down ti level with her face.

He began to wipe Caroline tears ,"shhhhh,whats done is done !"

Caroline barely noticed him through her tears. And only after he began to lift the victims body into his own hands did she finally grasp his presence.

He speeded into the woods and dug a grave underneath the dense black night until one was deep enough to rest the body.

He looked towards Caroline and retorted ," you want to keep that as a souvenir ?"pointing towards the head Caroline had wrapped in her arms.

Suddenly Caroline jumped at the realisation of the contents and walked towards the grave throwing the head in with the rest of her kill .

Klaus began to throw over the dirt, when he stopped and said,"do you want to say a goodbye!?" With a smirk searing across his face.

The blonde looked at him and said nothing , just a single tear fell. And suddenly he felt a punch on his heart.
