Forbidden Love

5. The First Hunt

Brian's POV

"What happened?" I asked feeling sick. "It's a complicated story. Let's eat dinner and discuss it." Drake said.

After him and his mom told me everything I was so baffled that I thought I was dreaming. "Wait a minute. So you guys are vampires, I committed suicide, you bit me to revive me and now I'm a vampire." I told trying to wrap my head around all of this. "That's right. And now you can't die and anything that happens to you will heal quickly." Drake said. I couldn't believe this.

It has to be a dream. There is no way at all that they were vampires. It's impossible. These thoughts kept going through my head as i walked to my room. I couldn't sleep though. I went to see if Drake and his mom were still awake. I went out to the living room and was completely shocked. They were standing there in black clothes about to go outside. I bumped into the entertainment center and made them turn around. "What are you doing?" I asked scared and confused at the same time. "We were just about to get you. We are going for a hunt and we wanted to know if you wanted to do your first one." Mom said

I was scared. I didn't want to hurt anyone. I agreed anyway.

As we were walking I thought to myself, "Why would anybody like drinking human blood?" Then I smelled something unusual. It was a smell that was extraordinary. It was sweet but bitter. It was nice but mean. It was wild and calm. "You're smelling blood." Drake said. I can't believe it. I actually liked the smell of blood. I wanted to get to the smell faster. My stomach started to yearn for the blood. I felt like I needed it. Next thing  I knew I was next to the blood. I couldn't figure out how I had gotten here but Drake and mom were still a mile back. I went off the side walk to get away from the blood while I waited for them. When they got there they seen the confused looked I had. "What just happened? How did I get to here from there?" I asked. It's called hunger speed. Whenever you smell blood you will run faster than the speed of light to get to it. You will learn to control it.

This was fascinating. I turned around and saw my prey. I smelt the air again and was next to the person once more. I didn't want to kill anybody but I was so hungry it didn't matter any more. I looked at Drake and our mom. They nodded at me and I bit down on the person. The blood was sweet. It tasted like melted twizzlers. I'm guessing this person had a sweet tooth. As I started to get full I stopped. I did it. I had successfully been on my first hunt. I was so proud of myself that I smiled a little.

I wanted to celebrate. "Can we celebrate my first successful hunt mom?" I asked. I knew I could ask her and not get hurt. "Of course we can. Tomorrow we will go to the pancake house and you guys can get whatever you want." She said. I was ecstatic. This would be the first time that I went out to eat. We never did that as a family when I was still alive. I didn't dare ask either. I always knew that the answer would be no and a strong beating. I started to spiral thinking about the abuse. I tried to pull myself out of it but it was to late. I didn't want them to know what was happening so when the weren't looking I grabbed a small rock from the ground and started stroking it. They turned around and I quickly put it in my pocket. I felt the smooth top and the rough bottom. I concentrated on the rock. As I did this I quickly calmed down.

I kept stroking the rock just in case. I liked how it felt in my hands. We started making our journey back. I started hearing this voice. It wasnt talking, it was singing. It was singing the most beautiful note in the world. It put me in a trance as I followed it. Drake and our mom watched as I walked slowly to the sound. The melody was sweet and soft. It got louder as I got closer and closer. The music spoke to me.

The music was so loud. I knew I was close but I couldn't figure out where it was coming from.

Then I noticed her.
