Elijah's Pov

I groan, sitting up and looking around. I have no clue where the hell I am at. I slowly stand up, dusting myself off. I walk over to the window, peering out of it. I wince at the sunlight but I do not burn. I have no idea what has happened. I do not remember anything. I do not know how I ended up in this abandoned house, I think that's what this place is, with no memory. Well. I know my name, that I am a vampire and 325 years old. That is it.

I sigh, pacing around the room. I might as well go out there. One thing that I forgot to mention. I do not burn in the sunlight. (I do not remember how that came to be either.) I head for the door, stepping out into the real world and look around. One thing for sure. My clothes look like somewhere in the 80's. I need money. Maybe I should wait until later tonight.... I'd have to feed anyways. The thirst is awful right now. I make my way down the sidewalk, sticking my hands into my pockets of the pants I am wearing and try to blend in the best I can. Hopefully no one will notice how strange I look. Especially the pale skin.

It is past sun down now. I have figured out that it is currently 2017. The hunger in me was unbearably strong at the moment. I dig my fingernails in the palms of my hands, trying to ignore it for a bit longer. I quietly jump down from the building I was standing on top of and walk down an alley. I do not know what kind of person I was before now, but I know for sure that I did whatever to end my thirst. I see a guy pushing a woman up against the wall, the woman clearly not enjoying it. "Hold still, you bitch! This won't take long if you listen." He was clearly drunk. He had tattoos running up each arm, I think I see the glint of a dagger in his hand.

The smell of both of their blood was driving me insane, making my blood pump through my own veins faster. The man was planning on raping the woman. I could smell the endorphins coming off him. Filthy beast. I have respect for women. I was not going to kill her. But that guy. He isn't going to see tomorrow. I slowly approach the two, then grab the man off the woman and throw him against the wall. The woman was terrified, staring at me with wide eyes. "Go. I will take care of him," I state. She nods, quickly running off. I turn around, to see the guy trying to stand.

I chuckle, walking towards him and grab him by his shirt collar, pulling him up. I slam him against the wall. "That, sir, is not how you treat a woman." He glares at me, deciding to stab me in the chest with the dagger. "Oh. Would you look at that. I have been impaled." I look down at the dagger with disinterest and look back up at the man's face who look completely and utterly scared. "W-what are you?" I smirk, my fangs sticking out.

"Your worst nightmare."

I bite into his neck, and he screams in pain before going quiet as I drink the last bit of blood from his body. I feel my body getting stronger with each drink. The red liquid being so refreshing after waking up. I drop the body after I finish and sigh in pleasure. Not the best option, but I feel better. I wipe the blood off my mouth with back of my hand then look down at the dead body. Might as well check for any money or keys. I crouch down, searching the guys pockets. "Aha!" I find a wallet with some money. This guy must have sold drugs or something with this amount of cash. I also find keys to some apartment. Or house. These keys look fancy. I smirk, standing up and walk out of the alley after disposing the body into the dumpster.

First day of no memories gets me an apartment and a nice meal. I chuckle, looking down at the keys and go looking for the place that these keys belong to.

Two hours later and I am walking into this beauty of apartment. I am immediately hit with the smell of drugs. Knew it. I sit the keys on the cabinet in the kitchen, and start cleaning up the place with my vampire speed. Thirty minutes later the place looks new and doesn't look like the guy lived there. I also sneakily ran downstairs to change the name to mine. Love vampire speed. I go to check the guy's clothes to see what size he wears. "Hey.. a bit too big for me but good enough for a quick shower." I grab some of the clothes and go to the bathroom.

After a refreshing shower, I am in the bed and I am out like a light. Job searching starts tomorrow.
