Two Hearts One Soul

Chaper 1 cont.

A month has passed, I was able to be home school so I could graduate. The graduation was held at night so I was able to walk across the football field with my classmates. The biggest acheivement of my life and I was so excited about it even though my schooling had to end here.

I got a symbolence of control over my thirst for blood. Drinking fifteen to twenty glasses a day helped a lot. My mom got it, though she would not tell me where or how. I began to wonder about her 'daily' activities while I slept. When the news reported a blood bank had been robbed but no one knew how and the workers could not remember anything, and a few people were missing, though that is not really uncommon around here, I asked her about it but she brushed the subject aside.

There was a full moon tonight. I lay out in the back yard staring up at the sky, when I got the feeling that I was being watched. I sat up and looked around. Night vision really comes in handy. I scanned the yard and the bushes started shaking slighty. The hair on the back of my neck stood up.

A rabbit jumped out.

I released the breath I did not realize I was holding. Though the feeling of being watched never faded. I opened all my sences, trying to figure out what it was that had me on edge. I closed my eyes and enhaled deeply, distenguishing the pine trees, the jasmine bushes, the azalia bushes and something else. I held onto the sent, memorizing it then it became thicker, stronger, closer.

I felt a presence hovering over me and my eyes snapped open. I seen a dark figure looming over me, siloetted by the full moon.

"Who the fuck are you and what are you doing in my yard?" I said anger dripping in my tone.

The figure, clearly male, grabbed me by my shoulders and hauled me up to standing. He grabbed my face firmly, twisting and tilting my head as he inspected me.

Furious, I kicked him in the groan and shoved him away from me, pushing him ten feet back. He looked up at me and smiled, white fangs glowing under the moon light. A movment sturred the air behind him and I noticed the black wings unfurling. He leaped into the air coming towards me with out streched arms, hands tipped with claws.

I ducked from his attack and ran in my vamp speed into my house. I could still hear the beating of his wings as I ran up the stairs to my room. Before I opened my door the flapping stopped. I slowly turned the knob to my door and pushed it open. I looked up and a pair of almost white blue eyes peering down at me.

His hand, like a vice, gripped around my throat. I felt his fingers strech completly around my neck. He bared his fangs as he pulled me into my room and towards the window. I tried to dig my feet into my thick carpet, though it did little good.

He drug me out the window with him as he unfurled his wings and began to fly towards the tree tops. I grabbed his large forearm with both hands, and my fingers still did not fit completly around, and swung my leg up high connecting with his temple. My combat boot causing a small gash above his brow and he released me.

Free falling to the ground I braced my self for impact. I land on my feet, and stumble forward slightly. I looked back to the sky, searching for my attacker with no luck. I stood up and immediatly ducked and rolled sideways, avoiding his talons. Before I could recover fully, I felt a deep gash cross my shoulder with this man laughing manically behind me.

"Oh, little one. You're foolish to think you can best me. We are out of time tonight to play, but I will be seeinf you again. Sooner than you think." he said in a deep rugged voice that chilled me to the bone, though it was also sexy; was that weird of me? He was gone after that, vanished into thin air.

I felt the sun begining to rise and I locked my self in my room, closing and locking my windows. I closed my new curtains, thick black cloth to block out the sun's rays while I slept. Though I doubt I will be getting ant sleep today.
