“Yeah, fear, nervous humans!”
“Ya, nicest smell in the world.” I laughed. “I guess we’ve left them long enough…..now let the games begin…” I giggled and he grabbed my hand in his and we flew off running after the first scent.
“Lottie you nearly drove me crazy in the van rubbing that guy’s jugular and then draining him in a most feral way. God Lottie I wanted you there and then.”
“Hmmm” I muttered putting my finger to my smiling lips.
“What is it Lottie” he said smirking.
“Come out, come out, wherever you are” I chanted the school ground game. “It’s time to die.” I said giggling. Sure enough, there was a whimper coming from a cement pipe, left over from when the builders were piping water through the land. And you guessed it …It was the COWARD!!!!!!!!!!!!”
“Do you want Paddy-the-pipsqueak darling or do you think he’ll taste bad? I giggled when Bastien made face as if he was eating a lemon. He reached in and yanked him out by the neck and the man was screaming in terror, kicking, punching, and doing his best to get away, but it was completely futile. I heard the delicious sound of bones being broken as the shriek of agony faded and he died and then Bastien drained him. We put him on top of the first one that I had drained, in the hole we had dug, to bury them all when we were done.
“Darling, shall we go on? I feel like drinking another bud…..dy or two. I took off trailing the scent of the next snack. I was really enjoying this game. A female was next on the menu and she was a whingy hysterical thing.
“Silly girl, you hid up a tree, what a shame, no way to get away. Don’t you know I can climb trees too and I jumped up easily and landed on the branch beside her? I leaned on it and it snapped and so did she in lots of crunchy places as she hit the ground with a thud. She was lying with her limbs in all the wrong angles. Well I guess we had been up quite high ha ha ha.
“Here Bastien you like em dead first, you have this one” and I tossed her to him. He bit into her shoulder and had her drained in under a minute.
“Yeah! More” he shouted with glee. He led this time and we hit the jackpot. There were two in a barn having sex. Ha what a joke.
“FOOLS! What did ye figure, ye could die happy? WRONG!” I roared at them and pulled him off her so hard.
“Hey Bastien, smell the fear of this one ha ha ha I guess I’m his off switch.” I bit into his neck, felt his futile scraping at me as he kicked me and punched me, he was wasting his time, and he finally just gave up and died.
“Oh for God’s sake, what a weed.” I drained him and threw him on the ground in disgust. Last thing we needed was a wimpy vampire running around. Bastien was busy slurping the female.
“How come you like em dead first?” I asked him.
“Dunno,” he said with a shrug of his shoulders. We took the two to the pile and I said
“And 2 makes 5, 3 to go, wonder where the “hotrod’ is gone? He is mine. I called shotgun.” I heard a sound then and I ran towards it as fast as I could. It was a little boy about three or four. I stopped in shock.
“Hello, who are you?” I said in a kind voice. He shook his head and pointed to his throat. I looked at him.
“Where’s your mommy?” He shrugged his shoulders. I looked around and saw Bastien walking towards me and I panicked thinking he would kill this child and I had to protect it.
“What have you got there? A mini snack?” he said
“Um NO, it’s a child and he’s lost.” my voice breaking slightly.
