Gradually,however, Kate slowed down to a halt,calming walked now through the contiued panic took over, as Kate realized she was trees rustled,and the full moon shown of nowhere came John.
Kate gasped, backing away. John frowned and walked closer.
"Kate...whats wrong?"he asked softly.
"Grub,dead,and..."gasped out Kate,trying to put words to her tumbled shaked his head and took Kates face was much fuller,as though he had finnaly started to eat,and eat hand was still icey-scol though,and Kate drew back in fear.
"Cold..."she whispered,barely able to speak. John bent down and gently kissed Kate on the was warm-not very warm,but warm. Kate relaxed under his stood there kissing for probably a minute,forzen in time, then without a word she took his outstretched hand, smiling a calm smile. John smiled back, and together they walked to the edge of the forest. It was like a leafy tunnel,and when they got to edge it was like the light at the end of it.
Kate gasped,then smiled,and finnaly laughed and squeeled,"Oh John,I could ki..."then faded away. There was a definate deja-vu to the words,and sure enough John smiled widely, for the first time showing his teeth. If you could call them teeth, for they were in fact fangs. Kate screamed and stepped back as John stepped forward with a hunger in his eyes.
Desperately,she picked up a pair of twigs and put them into the form of a cross."Back!Back demon!"she screeched. Very cliche, but effective,because John stopped. He frowned,and there was a definate sadness in his eyes. "Back!"repeated Kate, pushing the 'Cross' into John's chest. He stumbled back,startled.
"Back!Back!Back..."screeched Kate,dissolving into slumped unto the ground, hopeless. Though John was startled, he wasn't hurt,visably at least. There was no hope, he was going to kill her just like he had killed Eliza,Grub,Miki, and all the rest. But,surprisinly,he didn't.
John bent down to Kate,putting an ice-cold hand on Kates shoulder. She drew back, staring up at him with quivering eyes.
"Kate..."he said softly.
"What are you doing??"asks Kate. "Are you just playing with me??" Johns eyes filled with tears.
"No,Kate,never..."
"Then why did you kill Miki,and Eliza,and all I hold dear,but not me?"Kate edged away from John,but he grabbed her back.
"No Kate!"he said forcebly. " I...explain?"
"Yes..."whispered Kate. "Like...how you walk in the sun."John sighed and sat back.
"As you know, vampires don't have souls,"he began. Kate nodded. "This is what witches try to do: they capture some poor bloody criminal,and kill him,and trap his damned soul. Then, she takes a vampire,and put the soul in him. You can take the soul out of the vampire, but you can't put it back in. The only way is to do it within five years of being turned into a vampire, and it must be his actual someone elses.I had, in fact, been killed in Ancient Egypt, 5 thousand years ago instead of 5. It was not my soul. When something like this happens,it is a being that is neither Undead nor Alive,and a slave to the witch. Ella,"John spat the word,"was my witch. The effects were, you can have a dim reflection,and can walk in the sun with strong sunblock, but you still must feed, and be a slave. Unless the witch tells you to feed, you do ,you know that the Egyptions beleve in Destiny?"Here John grasped Kates hands,and she nodded,trying to make sense of the things he was telling her.
"Well,my real name is Egyption,that means Destiny. If my witch,Ella,died-which she did,by burning at the stake-then I would have to repeat the cycle of the last thirteen people I had eaten, over and over again,with there descendents. Ella died because of me-I did not cover Eliza enough,and left the most obvious clues,and didn't bother to kill Eliza's chattering witness ,before Ella died,I was punished. Her spirit lives on,and I am still punished,still her ultimate slave...and right now,I have pains in my chest..."Here Enmaracu's breathing became shallow and labored. "And above all else,I had to kill Eliza's ,they were in took two centuries to get to America." Kate gasped, and held tightly unto Enmaracu's hand.
"I was sent to seduce you,gain your trust first,because you had to be last and I couldn't have you untrustworthy. And,in a way,Ella's twisted plan to ruin your hopes up, then crush ...but...Kate,I...love you." Kate's eyes shone bright and wet and slowly she kissed Enmaracu.
At first, it was held unto eachother, a mortal kissing a stirred,the leave were silent,then Enmaracu moved back.
"Kate..."he said urgently. "I could do it, and you would be a vampire, my bride...perhaps working for Ella,but you would be with me, and I with you, or else I would just take a stake and-" Kate gasped, mouth agape.
"No!"she yelled."John-Enmaracu...I couldn't ever become a vampire,but please,don't even think about it,I love you and-"
"In that case,"Enmaracu interrupted gently."I'm sorry,my love..."he whispered,tears shimmering in his face. In a blink, Enmaracu plunged his fangs deep into her throat,the crimson blood spewing out. A scream rosed and died on her lips, and Kate herself rose and died, falling to the ground. Enmaracu looked at her in remorse for a second, then stood up. His eyes were blocks of steel, unfeeling and cold.
Seemingly out of nowhere, Ella appeared. A twisted smiled crossed her lips.
"Finnally..."she crooned. "Next time...her mother,and father...everyone." Enmaracu nodded mutely.
"You did a good job. For a second I thought you ment it...to bad she would have been a good servant."
"Of course I didn't...and I only said all that love stuff because she forgot about that cross around her neck,in her trust..."stuttered Enmaracu. Ella glared at him,then turned away.
"I assume you are telling the truth. Either way, the deed is done. Come..."with that,Ella shivered and dissapeared like a holographic image, appearing again a few yards away. Enmaracu followed, but looked back, for one minute, to look back at Kates dead body.
"Goodbye..."he whispered.
