When I was given a verdict they gave my crime a name, death of a thousand cuts. Such a beautiful name for a gruesome death. So that would be my death ( of a thousand cuts lol). I was hand bound to a pole and lynched to death. It was excruciating but I didn't show it, I took each lash. It made me proud that I was the one that had killed him and not the jury. He would have gotten away with it because he was male and at the time had more rights. I could feel the blood slowly leave my body leaving me weak were I could no longer stand. But the thing I remember from my death wasn't the pain or even my sisters lovers screams. No what I remember it the moon and stars, so beautiful. They were always my favorite thing along with the rain. The stars seem to shine so much brighter as the light left my eyes like they were calling me to join them. Then all I saw was black and a voice whispering in my heard that this was part of the deal and my time wasn't over and it never was going to be. I woke up the next day to the bright sun and a thirst that could break the toughest of men. I could see myself walking trying to quench my thirst but nothing worked. Then I walked by the hospitals and froze in my spot. I could hear the hearts beating and smell the sweet aroma that made my thirst peak. I walked into the hospital to see war victims crying for help but there was nothing to be done for them they were on death's row and were just bleeding out. Then that's when realized it was the blood I thirst for. Its okay the voice said this is what you are now and this is what you eat to stay alive. I bit my long fangs into the man's neck and drank him whole. I lost control that day and feasted on anyone and anything that had a pulse. I eventually killed my whole town women, children, men everyone. Now I'm on the run in fear of the next town over trying to kill me. But I don't think it is possible, I was stabbed and beat a couple of times through my frenzy and I healed after I fed. The voice in my head gave me a name after a couple of years that I really liked; Vampire. I don't know if I'm the only one, but I think I'm the first.
