Under the Moonlight

Chapter 4: Thirsty

:::::::::::: No One's POV ::::::::::::

Dipper opened his eyes. He was in a dark place. He couldn't see or hear anything. There was only... a scent. That smell was familiar. It was the same as the night... when his parents died. The smell of blood.

Then, a light appeared in front of his eyes. The glow soon turned into the moon.

He found himself lying on the grass. The night breeze caressed his face. The sky was full of stars and it was the best show he had ever seen.

However, the wind was bringing the same scent from before. Dipper stood up. He had the same clothes he always wore when he was 12... he WAS 12.

Then he looked down. The soft grass was covered with a dark substance from which the perfume came.

D: Is this... blood?

He followed the blood's trail with his gaze. It was ending in a dark pool under two bodies: a woman and a man.

The woman's eyes were open but her gaze was totally absent. She had brown long hair like those of Mabel and beautiful and strange green-blue eyes. The man's eyes were closed and there was a pained expression on his face.

D: Mom? Dad?

Dipper staggered in their direction, but before he reached them he heard a scream behind him.

M: DIPPER!!!

He turned and ran into the woods, chasing his sister's voice and trying to answer her. Soon he reached a clearing. There were a lot of corpses on the ground. All bloody. All with a wound on their neck.

In the middle of it, there was a dark figure dressed fancy in black and blue (or green) with a hood which was hiding his face.

The only thing he could've seen was his blood red eyes which were glowing in the darkness and his mouth, bent in a creepy smile that showed his sharp teeth.

In his arms, he was holding a girl with long brown hair, very similar to my mother but even more to me...

D: Mabel...

The vampire brought her neck near to his mouth and he bit her, causing red blood to flow.

D: No... Mabel can't... I-I can't...

Dipper fell on his knees as tears blurred his vision.

D: This must be a nightmare... please... wake me up... someone... please... SOMEONE WAKE ME UP!

:::::::::::: Dipper's POV ::::::::::::

I suddenly opened my eyes and I sat down. I was breathing heavily. My eyes were full of tears. I was sobbing. I couldn't calm down.

Soon I heard a voice. A calm and warm voice, calling me, telling me to breathe and helping me to calm.

When I was able to control my breathing, I realized that my head was resting against something warm and that two warm arms were hugging me. Before falling asleep again I was able to hear again that voice...

B: Don't worry Pinetree. I'll stay here with you until you'll wake up.
