"...Absolutely not. I will not use you, my precious daughter, as my blood source."

"Why not?! It's just to waken you, yeah?"

"I refuse to allow you to do such a thing."

"It's okay; you don't have to allow me. I'll just do it anyway."

--------------------

Rido is instantly stumped for words, and I take this opportunity to move over to where his body's face is located. I open his mouth, and bring up my left wrist into view. With my left hand, I drag my now-grown claws across my wrist. Blood instantly swells up, and, tilting my wrist a little, the blood begins to fall into the body's awaiting mouth. Making sure that my nails stay in my skin so that it doesn't heal, I watch as the blood pours from my body into my father's.

"Good thing I've fed recently. Otherwise, I would have been in quite a sticky situation~"

"...Ivy! What do you think you're doing?!"

"Feeding your body to wake you up, duh."

"You... I clearly just said not to!"

"But I said that I'd do it anyway. Silly, seems like you can't even remember what I said just a few moments ago."

"*Sigh*, Where did you get your stubbornness from?"

"I dunno~ So... do you think I should probably stop bleeding now? Or is the blood still not enough?"

"Stop bleeding! That's enough! Just, stop piercing your wrist!"

"Huh, you're right. It does look like I'm a little depressed or emo-ish."

"Ivy, that is not the point."

"...Then what is?"

"Your blood! Even if you feed recently, you only have so much of it!"

"Oh yeah..."

I pull my blood stained nails out of my wrist and watch in amusement as my wound heals up. Why is it so entertaining to see something like this heal in the blink of the eye? I mean, it's only skin regrowing... so why does it feel surreal?

Shaking out of my thoughts I go to place my hands on my hips until I notice that they still are covered in blood. Should I lick it off? I did that last time I got my hands messy...

"Dont."

"Don't what?"

"There is a bathroom right next to you. Use the sink and don't make too much of a mess with the blood. I don't fancy having that Kaname kid knowing I'm up and about."

I stand there for a while and blink a few times in awe. I continue to stare at him until I mutter my exact thoughts.

"Mind reader..."

"No, just observant. Now then, it's time for me to get the show on the road. I have so much work to do after all."

After performing a typical bad guy's chuckle, he lays down on the bed in the room and closes his eyes. Suddenly, his body located in the coffin sits up. I repress the strangely strong urge to push it back down as I watch the body's eyes open, revealing eyes that mimic my own. Slowly, alike the many zombie novels that I have read, the head turned until it was looking at me.

...Don't tell me it really is a zombie!!! Was Rido out of his body for so long that it became a zombie?! Is this even possible?! What do I do?! WHAT DO I DO?!?!

"Ah, it's good to be back."

The zombie can talk!!! I was lied to!!! I'ma die! I will be the only supernatural creature to have died from a zombie!!! I'm too young to die!!!
