Present
11 years. 11 fucking years have now passed since the day where my parents were killed.
Yes I remember that day. I remember the pain, anger and sadness. I still feel it. 11 years may have passed, but I still feel it. Everyday I have the urge to cry and scream for them to come back, but I know that this is impossible.
The tears started to well up again just thinking about them.
A man with red eyes, my two siblings, mom and dad...
...after that I don't know anymore
Anyway I shouldn't be thinking about it.
I looked down and saw the man look up at me with fear clearly written on his face. A small smile curled up on my lips. He should be afraid. That's what I wanted to see in his eyes.
I knelt down beside him and slowly took my knife out of my pocket and showed it to him. His black eyes widened and I let out a cold laugh
„ You know I hate people like you. First you make me believe that you will get me the information's that I need and for a big price may I add and then you try to leave the country? Really? I mean you can trick other people but...not me" my voice changed at the last sentence. I moved the knife towards his neck ready to kill him but he interrupted me.
„ WAIT. DONT...I...I didn't know that you were after such a strong and powerful person. I nearly lost my life because of you an-..." I punched him square in the face before he could finish his sentence.
„ WHY DID YOU PROMISED ME THEN? YOU COULD HAVE SAID „ I'm sorry I cant help you" BUT THANKS TO YOU, I SAVED MY OWN LIFE YOU ASSHOLE" I was holding him by his collar and shaking him.
„ You work for him. I was following you for weeks now. Before you say „that's not right" I saw you with his right hand man. You tried fooling me around right? And then you wanted to bring me to him" I looked deep in his eyes , if there was any sign of lie.
He gulped and looked away. I laughed and took my knife and stabbed him in his heart. He let out a painful scream. He turned his head towards me with tears in his eyes.
„ Yo-u don't...know...h-how strong he is. He wi-ll get you...Carolina" he said between hard to get breaths. I turned around and gave him a death stare.
„ Does it looks like I'm scared? I don't give a fuck if he's strong or not. He killed my parents and took me away from them. He is going to pay for that one day. He will get me you say? Hah I would like to see him try! And know rest in hell". I walked away leaving him there to rot.
I left the warehouse and walked towards my car. I started the car but before I drove off, I watched how the house broke down with a big explosion.
You see I was trying to get information's about the vampire King Mason, who was my fathers biggest enemy and he was the one who wanted my family dead. My destination was to find him. Of course I was aware that it would be really hard to get information's about him after all he is the vampire king, but I found Alex. He used to be a hunter, so I thought he could get me a few things. There was the thing. I didn't trusted him. He told me it would cost me a lot. I payed him, even when it was hard to find the money. He didn't called me like he promised. Following my mind I stalked him and what did I saw? Alex talking with Masons most trusted man and telling Alex to bring me to Mason...
From all the anger and adrenaline I tracked him here in this warehouse and finished his life.
With a sigh I left this place and drove back to my house.
„ Where is my USB stick?" I stopped the car and searched for my small devil stick and found it on the backseat? What? I rolled my eyes and opened my music folder. You are not alone by Michael Jackson was the only song that could help me right now. I relaxed and listened to Michael's angelic voice...
Another day has gone I'm still all alone...
How could this be...
You're not here with me.
You never said goodbye
Someone tell me why
Did you have to go and leave my world so cold
...
20 minutes later
I took my key and opened my and walked directly to the kitchen where two people were waiting for me.
„ Carolina we just got a call from London. Peters mother died. Pack your things we will take the plane in 4 hours." Mandy said with a serious tone. I just nodded my head but before I walked off I turned towards Peter and saw his cold blue eyes now lifeless and nearly dead. With my hands behind my back and my back straight I deeply breathed in
„ I'm sorry for your loss. She was a great woman"
He looked me in the eyes and nodded his head. I walked the stairs up and heard him whisper
„ she was"
My door was open when I reached it which was really weird because I always close it and neither Mandy or Peter enter it. I pushed the door wide open and saw a man sit on my bed. Narrowing my eyes in the darkness I swiftly switched the lights on and rolled my eyes when I saw who it was.
„ Why did you killed him. I thought you stopped the killing?" Was the first thing that I heard from him. He was now standing in front of me. He was wearing a black sweater and black jeans together with black shoes.
„ He tried to get me to Mason" was my answer. That was enough to break him out of his angry state. His eyes softened and he relaxed his shoulder.
„ Oh I'm sorry. I thought that you started with your hunts again. I shouldn't jump to conclusion. Anyway. I heard you are flying to London in 4 hours and I couldn't let you go without telling you this." he showed me a picture of a maybe 40 year old looking man. I took it from him and analyzed it. My eyes widened when I recognized him as my dad. I looked up in his hazel brown eyes and waited for a answer.
„ Believe it or not he was seen yesterday in London. Kevin took them. Maybe you remember him. He was the one who helped us find out about Mason. Without him we wouldn't know about Mason. If we know something about Mason today, then just because of Kevin. My first thought was telling you" he told me. My heart started to beat faster. The fact that this man could be my father brought up the Adrenalin. My breath started to fasten and my mind was going crazy.
„ He looks just like him, only a bit older" my voice cracked a bit.
„ I trust Kevin. He wouldn't send me something unimportant." He said and placed his hands carefully on my shoulder trying not to touch my skin. 1 year ago I was fighting against a girl, when suddenly a image played in my head. I saw the girl lying dead in a living room with a gun in her hand. Came out that the girl killed herself a few weeks after the image I saw. I started to freak out because after that, whenever I touched someone I saw the persons death. One night I was crying in my room because a small girl that I met in the park, died in a car crash. I told Ethan about it. He didn't know what it was so he suggested to wear gloves or avoid any contact with the skin. That's what I did. I never touched someone without my gloves on neither did I allowed anyone to touch me. ( A/N Just a quick information. Carolina can only see peoples death when SHE touches someone or someone touches her ON THE SKIN with their HANDS. For example when she kisses Ethan's cheeks she wont see anything. Only if she touches him on the cheeks or somewhere than she will see it. Same goes to Ethan he needs to touch her cheeks or wherever to let her see anything)
„ Well seems like my search will take place in London then" I said and gave him a small smile which he returned.
„ Carolina I will see you later. I need to go" Ethan said and pulled on his hair.He always does that when he is annoyed. My smile vanished because I remembered that I wont see him for how long? They didn't told me...
„ No Carolina smile again, after all we rarely see you smile" he started poking me. I let out a small laugh
„ I don't know how long I wont see you" I said and he could tell that I was sad. Instead of telling me everything is going to be okay...he started laughing...
„ Why are you laughing" I punched him on his shoulder. He started to calm down and coughed
„ My god Carolina did you really taught I would leave you alone? For what are best friends- wait I'm like a brother to you." he slightly pushed me back and hugged me. I hugged him back. We stayed there for five minutes until I decided to let go.
„ We will be in the same plane but we will sit far apart. It shouldn't be a problem. Sooo I need to go. See you" he kissed my hair and walked towards the window.
„ Just because you are a vampire doesn't mean that you can always come through my window" I crossed my arms and raised my eyebrow. He just laughed and jumped down. I rolled my eyes and started to pack my stuff.
After packing everything I sat down on my bed and thought about my life. How did I end up here?
Well after my parents were killed I woke up in the woods with two people beside me. Mandy and Peter. They told me that my family was killed by a pack of Vampires and that the leader tried to take me with him and that they saved me. After that they took me with them to a safer place and explained me everything about Vampires, Werewolves and hunters. Mandy and Peter together are still the best hunters out there.
Mandy and Peter never showed me any kind of emotion, but they raised me to become that what I am today. They protected me and made sure that I had everything I needed. Peter wasn't rich neither was he poor. Long story short, they trained me to become a hunter as well. It was really a rough time. Learning to work with different weapons and getting yourself hurt wasn't that much of fun. Anyway after years and years of running, fighting, killing and a lot of damage on your body, my psyche changed from 1 to 100. I was so focused on killing rogues and other creatures that I wanted revenge. I wanted to avenge my parents. I don't know from where that came but, I started to kill every night a new victim.
Ethan my best friend or more like my brother, saw how I changed. I wasn't smiling, laughing or showing any kind of emotion. My face was either all the time serious or angry. Ethan was really angry at me for all the killing but I couldn't stop myself. I knew that I was doing the wrong thing, so is started to let all my anger out on the Punching bag that was hanging in the gym that Ethan owned. My interests in Martial arts and self defense started to show up and I teached myself everything about it. But that wasn't enough. I wanted to fight someone not just the punching bag...
I found out that near our woods was a basement where street fighter met up and fought for a lot of money. I think that you know what happened afterwards. For two years I am known as the best street fighter around. Of course Ethan didn't know about that (even though he is a vampire he should know that).
No one knows about it and I would like it if it stays like that.
I looked at my watch and saw that we had still two hours left. I heard someone come up the stairs. I stood up and took all my bags with me.
„ We are going. Have you packed everything you need" Mandy asked. I nodded and left my room together with her.
Before we left the house I searched for but couldn't find it. I ran the stairs up again and looked at my closet and AHA found it. I put it on and went down again. I texted Ethan that we were leaving
I'm already at the airport. See you there :)
I smiled and we walked out.Lets see what is waiting for me in London...
