Awakenings - Part One

Someone Walked Over My Grave

As expected History was the usual mundane journey through history and at times I had to stop myself from laughing at how the romans or royals must have treated their own kind.

Tales of debauchery were not uncommon and if Game of Thrones is to be believed then incest and other despicable acts were indulged in by even those of higher classes.
I could have chucked up my breakfast when it was revealed that a certain person of high upstanding slept with the dead.

And then it happened again…
I felt a slight breeze flutter up and it felt like someone was kissing my neck, I stood up abruptly and patted my neck with my hand.
Much to the amusement of everyone in the class and the teacher who looked at me as though I was having a weird fit, I sat back down with a puzzled expression and went back to daydreaming.
…
It was some time later when I woke up to discover that the room was empty, to tell the truth it wasn’t.
Mrs Four was here, alone.
She turned to me as my eyes opened.
“At last Holly, now we may begin”
She walked to the door and locked it and lowered the blinds.
“What are you doing?”
She turned and smiled at me and then something unexpected happened.
The light disappeared and it was dark outside.
I turned back to see that her clothes had changed, she was also considerably younger……this had to be another dream, I was having many of those lately.

“Why do you delay Holly?”
“What am I delaying with?”

Before I knew it she was standing beside me and then did something I totally did not expect as her lips brushed my own.
The kiss was brief but in that single moment everything came back to me, meeting with her, making love with her.
“You took my virginity”
“Yes I did, and it was delicious”
“But why?”
She kissed me again and this time it deepened, I could feel something new and then the memory came back.

Conversion.

She frowned and stood back.
“I don’t understand Holly, you should have transitioned by now”
“Should I?”
“Yes, you touched the holes on your neck”

I instinctively moved my hand up to my neck and felt for them, when I looked at my fingers they were covered with blood.
I sucked them into my mouth.

Juicy!

“There is something special about you Holly, but I don’t know what that is”
“Im just an ordinary girl, nothing special about me”
“Oh but there is, I don’t know what but you are not mine just yet”
“Yours?”
“I bit you Holly and I took your virginity, you should be grateful that you are no longer human”

I felt down my body, my heart was clearly beating.
“Not human?”
She looked aghast.
“How do I not have control?”
And then she stepped back.

“Holly, was you baptised by any chance?”
“Yes I was”
She shook her head.
“And I bet the font was composed of a metallic alloy and filled with holy water”
“What of it?”
“Your incomplete and I cannot change you”
“And that’s a bad thing?”

“Yes Holly because your body will reject and without a transfusion you will die”
“Die?”
“Yes, my plan must change”
“How?”

“You remember how it all ended the other night, I told you that taking Veronica was your next move and that when she was like us that we could begin the great plan”.
“Yes I remember all of that”
“Im sorry Holly but I cannot give you the blood to survive and there is only one other way to finish this”
“What is that?”

She paused…

Veronica must die and then you must drain her blood.
