Too Dangerous (Elijah Mikaelson)

•Ch•20•Lack Of Control•

Ric went to school while I stayed in the apartment he promised to help me work on my control once he gets back but for now it's too risky for me to be in school like a normal teenager. The problem was I was hungry. I sat around the house, waiting for Ric to come back from School, I waited and waited. The longer I waited the hungrier I got, I tried watching TV, eating some food but that just made me feel worse, I tried to distract myself while convincing myself that Ric would walk in through that door any minute now.

Problem was he didn't.

I waited till night fall, he just never showed up after promising me to help, I know he probably has better things to be doing but why would he lie? Suddenly I was pissed, at myself for not being able to control anything, at Ric for giving me false hope, at Klaus for making me into this person and at Elijah for leaving me all alone after everything he promised me.

My anger didn't last long, I got really upset instead, i felt useless not being able to control myself was the worst feeling, when you're a vampire and your thirst gets the better of you there's only two option you either fight it or embrace it. I want to fight it but I don't know how.

I suddenly got the feeling of claustrophobia, I didn't want to be stuck in a small apartment all day, I left without taking another glance back. I wasn't sure where to go so I went straight to the nearest shop and decided to try something new to curb my craving for human blood. I compelled the woman behind the till to give me a box of fags and a lighter. I had trouble eith compulsion at first since nobody thought me how to do it but I eventually got the hang of it.

I lit a fag and walked towards the forest, I wanted peace and quiet so I could pull myself together a little bit. The closer I got towards the little spot I found the louder the music got, I forgot there was a bonfire on but instead of walking away I found myself walking closer and closer. I stood just out of sight and watched all the wasted teenagers stumble around the bonfire. Even from here through all their music and laughter I could clearly hear each and every one of their heartbeats, pumping blood through their body.

I closed my eyes tight as I tried to control my eyes just when I thought I had it someone said my name "hey Alex" it was Hunter, he walked over with some other guy. "This is Caleb long time no see Alex"

I laughed halfheartedly "nice to meet you" I smiled forcefully trying to keep in control right now, but their whole bodies radiated this heat and I could practically see their necks pulsating as the blood ran through the veins.

"Me too hey wanna step over here it'll be quieter" Caleb offered and he led up deeper into the forest.

I heard some girls calling the boys names in the distance but ignored it since their human ears clearly couldn't hear it. "What have u been up to so huh?" Hunter smirked at me as he wrapped his arm around my shoulders.

Unluckily for him my body moved before I could think and I had him pinned up against a tree in no time, his sweet blood making its way gloriously down my throat. I heard Caleb scream and try to run off, the girls seemed to have heard him and started shouting back. Quickly biting into Hunter's neck and letting it tumble to the ground before I went after Caleb.

I caught his arm and pulled him back harshly sending him flying backwards, his back colliding with a tree. I walked over to him and lifted him off the door, quickly I grabbed onto the bavk of his neck and bit into the side of his neck. He screamed again, I could hear the girls voices getting closer. I finished him off and slowly walked towards the two girls, waiting for them to get in deeper.

Once I had a clear view of them I used my speed and ran past them, grabbing one of them and jumping onto a tree with her, leaving the other clueless. I compelled her to stay quiet as her friend walked around in circles shouting her name. I drained her quickly, leaving her body handing down from some branches while I went back for my next Victim. I couldn't think of anything but blood, my senses were sharp and I was focus on my prey. It wasn't long before the last head dropped onto the forest floor.
