• When I opened my eyes for the first time, all I seen was a figure in a black cape.

    “Good. You survived. You will be of great use to me.” Her voice rang like twinkling bells. It sounded to light, apart from her clothing.

    “You must be thirsty now.” She turned around so her back was toward me. “Daniel-” Who's Daniel?”-Fetch a snack for the newborn.” Wait. Newborn?

    Then suddenly there was an agonizing burn in my throat. I grabbed my neck. What is it coming from? “What's wrong with me?” I asked the cloaked figure. She removed her hood and faced me once again. I noticed that she only looked to be fourteen at the oldest. She was very petite and white. Long, black hair was slung down her back. She had a boy-ish figure. Her facial features were both angelic and demonic.

    She spoke in a calm, mellowed voice. “Hello young one. My name is Alexis.” Her piercing red eyes looked at me for a brief moment before turning away. Another cloaked person handed me a lifeless body. I instantly grabbed the body and sank my teeth into her neck. The warm, sweet nectar from her body ran down my throat and put out the fire.

    “There, better?” Alexis asked me.
