Something new - twilight (A.C)

2. Who's the man with the red eyes?

It late at night as I walk home from work. I take my usual shortcut through the alley two blocks away from my house.

As I'm quietly walking dawn the alley I begin to get the feeling that I'm being followed.

I sneek a look behind me but see nothing. I shrug and blame it on beeing paranoid.

When I look back in front of me I halt in my steps. I'm looking right in the eyes of a really pale guy with raven black hair and blood red eyes, on his lips plays a sinister smirk.

I try to ingnore him and walk past him, but as I step aside to move past, he moves blocking my way.

I narrow my eyes at this strange man. "What do you want man?" I ask suspicious of the man.

"A snack." The man answers flashing his teeth in a suggestive way. I turn around and run.

"Ah a runner, this is gonna be fun." I hear the man snicker before feel something hard hit the back of my knee.

Because of the force of the hit my knee gives out making me fall to the ground. I hit my head hard against an stone wall making a deep cut at my temple.

The stranger licks his lips eying the blood that is now slowly trickling down the side of my face.

I feel force pushing down my knee befor a sickening crack accompanied with a blood curdling scream of pain.

The stranger picks up a little bit of blood on his finger. He licks of his finger. "Hmm, delicious."

Then his head shoots up like he heard something. He quickly looks back down at me. He takes my face forcing me to look in his haunting red eyes.

"I'll be back." He says as a promise before taking of at an inhuman speed.

That's the last thing is see and hear before loosing consciousness.

Cold hand are shaking my sweating figure trying to pull me out of my nightmare.

"Vanessa, it's just a dream. Please wake up." An angelic voice pleads me.

I shoot up screaming and trashing. "He's coming back, he's coming back." I keep chanting as a cool body pull me close trying to calm me dawn.

As I'm calm again I'm laid back down. I look up to the golden eyes of Alice. "Who's coming back?" She asks with a gentle voice.

"The man with the red eyes." I mutter as sleep once again takes hold of me.

Alice POV~

A concerned Rose told us about her talk with Vanessa. About how the only thing she remembered after her accident is blood red eyes.

"A vampire?" Carlisle asks confused. "If she was attacked by one, how is she still alive?"

"A vampire on hunt would not just toy with a human without drinking her after." Jasper states also confused.

"Which means he was interrupted somehow." Emmett tries.

"It's possible. But what could interrupt a vampire mid hunt?" Esme then asks.

"The mutts?" Rose asks in disgust.

"Possibly, but as far as I'm aware there are none in Phoenix." I state.

"Another vampire maybe?" Emmett asks.

"No they would have finished the job." Japer states.

A blood curdling scream erupts through the house. My eyes go wide and I race to the only possible source of the sound, the guest room.
