Perfect scars

Chapter Twelve.

The night was cool, mysterious, deadly. I stood on the roof and waited. Cool breeze chilled my skin as I pushed the hair behind my ear and walked to the edge and placed one hand in side my bag to the left of me, pulling out three throwing knives. I slipped them into the back pocket on my pants. I stood waiting.

A car pulled in destroying the silence.

I smiled quickly walking off the roof and shaking my hands through my hair roughly making it messy. I heard men's voices as I turned the corner.

Shit.

Six men stood with guns on their hips and leather jackets on. A challenge. I'll take it.

I slowly walked towards them stumbling on my own feet they turned and looked at me "oh my god is that you Ryan, oh my gadddddddd" I said slurring my words and falling into a tall round man who was bald and wore a suit but with a leather jacket. "Oh shit, she's drunk" one guy said slamming the car door shut "n-nooooooo, I'm fineeeeeeee'' I smiled hugging the guys more and giving out a disturbingly high pitched giggle. I wanted to gag from the sound of my own voice. "Just kill her and chuck her in the lake or something we don't have time for this" and short guy said behind me pulling a gun out.

I giggled and turned to him. "If I could die, trust me I'd be dead" I said pulling one knife out and holding my arm out spun around as it sliced through his necktie blood ran onto my hand I smiled "oh five guys and one girl hardly a fair fight, don't you think" they pulled guns out and started to shoot, their bullets felt like slow motion to me quickly moving and walking closer to them. I winked and threw a knife to the guy in the back it sunk into his skull, causing his body to drop lifeless I smiled I held both knives in one hand and flicked my wrist sending them both into two men's chests. They both dropped to the cold floor.

The bald guy stood shocked "who are you. What do you want." He shouted as his last standing man shook as he pointed his gun towards me" I want nothing I assure you that, but who am I, well that's a secret I'll never tell." I winked and kicked his legs out from under him the last man started to run "I love it when they run" I kicked the guy on the floor and stepped on him running past the guy with the knife in his eye and pulled it out I chased him and then quickly raised my arm and the knife flew and landed in his back causing him to call out in pain.

I walked up to him and pulled the knife out and slowly plunged it into the side of his neck causing his screams to be silenced. I looked back the man now had an assault rifle pointing towards me "doge this your freaky bitch" he shouted pulling the trigger. I smiled as the sound of shells being fired rang through the hollow night I ran towards him quickly and dodged the bullets ending up standing back to back with him "what are you" he said dropping the gun I smiled and stepped in front of him I closed my eyes and felt the blood pump through me then opened them.

His eyes widened and his face grew pale "the-ther-there r-r-red!" He said stepping back almost tripping on his fallen friend "you're a vampire" he said scared "ha-ha oh don't make me laugh, we both know they aren't real" I rolled my eyes laughing picking up both of my knives now having all three again "are you the devil" he said getting his pistol out and aiming it at my head.

"wow, you assume I'm an immortal creature yet you still pull a gun out, how foolish" I smiled shaking my head "but no and never confuse the two of us!" I said bitterly and threw a knife in his chest he fell and his hand hit the floor causing a bullet to shoot and hit me in the side of my stomach "ah fuck" I screamed and threw another knife at his already dead body and held my side in pain and feel the blood start to drip. I bit my lip trying to take my mind off the pain. Fuck.

I walked up to him and grabbed both knives and put them in my pocket and walked around the back of the building and pulling a cover off my bike and grabbing my helmet quickly putting it on still holding my side.

I looked down and lifted my top and saw the bullet hole "wow what a dick, this kills" I said putting my hand close to it. I bit down on the collar of my jacket and pushed two fingers in letting out a groan and pulled the bullet out. I placed the bullet in my Pocket and started my engine. The roar sounded and I drove onto the road in the dark night.

To say I have changed Is a very big understatement. I know the more I kill the more my demon side will rise but in the end, it's worth it even if it costs me my life who cares I will get my revenge. I drove back to a small motel where I plan on staying tonight. The guys I killed tonight were part of a large gang who specialises in finding host bodies for demons.

I parked my bike and looked for my room checking the doors and I walked past until I found number and sixty-six. I pushed the door open and walked in to the bathroom and quickly washed the knives in my hand and washed the dried blood off me I looked at the pentagram that was etched into my hand and the cross on my stomach. I can never pretend to be normal because of the constant reminders on my body that you are cursed and you are killing for a reason. Who am I kidding! I kill because I want to because I need to.

I walked back into the bedroom and placed my head on the pillow feeling my eyes get heavier and heavier, until they were waited down and I was pushed into and dreamless sleep.

My alarm screamed in to my ear from my phone I quickly hit it and checked the time. 3:15. I moaned and sat up rubbing my eyes and swinging my legs out of bed. I walked to the bathroom and splashed my face with water and quickly tied my hair up out of my face. I needed to be out of here by half past. Not so fun part about this is how off the radar I need to be.

I stuffed my things into a bag and quickly changed in to some new clothes I gathered my stuff and pulled my bag onto my back and walked to my bike checking my phone for the time quickly 3:27. I ran to my bike and quickly got on and started the engine. Why am I running?

If I don't I die I guess killing a lot of peoples going to have its defects.

It was still dark outside, it's winter so it will be for a while, the sound of police sirens rang through the night as they followed my crime trail to the motel.

The wind made my hair go crazy. I drove to my next stop a school... I know I don't go anymore there's no point but I know demons like to pray on the young and absent minded. So, college bars where a good option.

I drove until the sun came up and I eventually reached the town I was aiming for. Everywhere I looked there where bars and clubs for young college students. Perfect.

I pulled into a small motel and booked a room under a made up name and found my way to it and looked behind me into the car park there was a black car which caught my eye I recognized it... Oliver? No it can't be.

I looked around and walked to the car to see if I could see anything of his in it. "Scarlet?" I heard a familiar voice. It can't be him... I turned and saw him standing there confused his hair was longer and he had more tattoos on him. But he was still beautiful. No no no this can't be happening!

"Hi" I said awkwardly he looked at me worried "how much of your demon side did you activate?" He said quietly I smiled slightly "is it that strong?" I smiled but he didn't smile back he shook his head "what have you done" he whispered stepping closer I stepped back hitting his car. "why here" he asked.

"Stop. Okay whatever your trying to do here stop." I shouted slightly standing up off of the car "what do you mean" he said standing in front of me "I don't need you I don't need anyone so just stop acting like you care" I turned around and walked away he grabbed my hand "why do you insist on being alone" he shouted looking seriously at me I shook my head "you don't know me" I shouted and tried to walk away "tell me who you are" he said pulling me closer "I'm just a stranger to you..." I said pulling myself out of his grasp he looked at me confused "that's not who you are..." He said facing me "why do you care" I shouted he looked away and bit his lip "you used to care" he said calmly and I shook my head "yeah used to." I said quietly but loud enough for him to hear "why are you here?" He said exhausted "to kill why do you think! Why are you here?" I asked looking at him "the same" he said slowly I looked at him shocked "what?" I asked "yeah I was sick of doing nothing so now I'm a proper hunter" I smiled and nodded "well, enjoy your stay" I said turning and walking away.

I felt his eyes on me until I reached my room I gave one last glance towards him. Nothing... I feel nothing.
