It all started this one blistering night. It’s the night that changed my whole entire life forever! There is no taking it back. But the question stand. Will I enjoy this new life? Or will I do anything in my honour to get it back!?

I was just lying in my bed listening to the soft pitter-patter of the rain on the tin roof, the trees hitting up against the window as the wind blows gently.

But little did I know somebody was waiting for me. Somebody who was going to change my life! I didn’t know he was there! I didn’t know someone was watching over me… just waiting, so he can make his move.

The soft pitter-patter was not soft anymore it turned into a dreadful shower! The trees were thrashing against the window, suddenly I heard a loud BANG!

I shot up as fast as I could breathing heavily in shock! I look around the room to see if anything had changed, nothing had? BANG! There it goes again. I don’t think anything of it. The wind must be just blowing under the tin roof.

I check the time. 2:46a.m. “Great” I think to myself. How was I ever going to sleep with that tin roof!

I get rid of all my thoughts and go out to get a drink of warm milk, but I didn’t know I’m being followed. By someone that is not quite human.

I’m in the kitchen taking mouthfuls of warm milk. Suddenly, I feel a strong gust of wind blow past me. I turn around and the wind stopped? What was going on? I ignored it.  But was that the right thing to do?

I hear light foot steps behind me, do I dare to turn around!?

It’s too late now!

I feel an unfriendly pair of hands on my shoulders.

“Don’t worry child, I will make your life better! I will make it worth living!” A creature says with a deep, dark expression.

Unexpectedly I feel him bite into my neck.  I began to transform! My skin turned a pale white! My hair went black, I grew piercing fangs and I started to crave blood!

“Oh no” I whisper under my breath.

The bite had turned me into a blood-thirsty vampire!

“You’re with me now! Come, and join me!” The vampire held out his hand for me to take it.

I have nowhere else to go! I can’t stay here anymore!

I reach out for his hand and I grasp it.

Right then, the vampire and I dash out the door, leaving everything and everyone behind.

From then on in, we were out sucking blood out of the living!

There is no going back, I am like this… Forever! Will I ever want to turn back into a normal human being or continue to hunt down the living?
