Nothing else was on my mind except for that sweet smell of blood. I could tell that I was almost there because the scent was getting stronger and stronger by the minute. But that all stopped when Giovanni tackled me to the ground. I struggled and squirmed to get out of his grip but he was just too strong to break free. I could hear him yelling at me to calm down but nothing was working because Sucram was blocking him out due to the fact he was screaming as well.

"Break free damn it! You know you're stronger than him so break free! BREAK FREE OR ELSE I WILL KILL YOU!"

That did it. I got a burst of energy and I broke freefrom his grip. I ran to the scent of the blood again and this time I was fasterthan Giovanni. I got to another clearing and that's when I saw the travelingmerchant. He was on the ground bleeding heavily from his head due to the facthe fell on a rock that I saw was covered in blood. I quickly ran to him andjust struck at him. The feeling of the warm blood was quenching my thirst andit tasted really, really good. I knew I was killing the man but I couldn'tstop. That's when I started to get dizzy. Like I was getting drunk but it feltso good. Before I drained him dry I felt something strike my head. I blackedout and I didn't know what happened next.
