Memory

Darkness; all there was, was never ending darkness. Then, ever so slowly, a fog began to replace the darkness; casting its own faint light into the shadows. A humanoid shape started to take shape from the mist, revealing two red dots in place of eyes.

Details on the individual became clearer; a long, pale, crooked nose, a smiling visage and a dull, pink that rubbed against straight, pearly white teeth. An angular jaw-line framed the long, pale face, with dark purple-like bruises covering the skin beneath the red eyes. Short, black, spiked hair sprouted from the figure’s head.

The shoulders and two long arms appeared, covered by a long sleeved, plain gray turtleneck, with sleeves that extended beyond the fingertips of the creature. Long legs with faded blue jeans as attire, supported the body; the feet stayed invisible within the mist. The being lowered into a slight crouch and began to sway side to side, causing the sleeve tips to brush the top layer of fog; all the while, the red eyes never blinked, nor lost focus.

A deep growl emitted from the creature’s slightly opened mouth, making the other person within the mist to freeze from sheer terror. The boy’s instinct was to run, but the strong intensity of the figure’s red gaze kept the teen paralyzed, and unable to move.

The teen’s knees buckled from an involuntary impulse that shot up the his spine, leading the boy to kneel before the overpowering being. Pain racked the teen’s body, letting him know of what was to come.

More white teeth were revealed as the figure widened his smile. The boy closed his eyes, trying to make the man disappear, as a snarl escaped the mouth of his attacker.

“Time’s up.” Came the unexpected, soft voice in the teenager’s left ear. Those were the last words heard by the boy before the vampire attacked.
