AN: My vampires are like Stephanie Meyer's in Twilight. They have super speed, extra hearing, can talk fast, sparkle in the sunlight, never sleep, live for eternity unless ripped apart and burned, and have special skills/powers.
Thanks for prereading it for me, nuclearXsquid!!!! I love you!!!
The Night
A dark figure glided forward to finish off her prey.
Mara Tryphineus doesn't remember much about her life before becoming vampire, only about changer and that night.
It was a warm breezy summer afternoon on June 29, 1899, and Mara and her friends, whose names she does not remember, went camping in the mountains.
"Here's a great spot!" exclaims the older girl. After saying that, the group stopped and set up camp. By the time everything was set up, the sun had almost finished setting.
The group decided to make a fire to roast marshmallows. After a series of unsuccessful tries, the older boy finally got the fire started. The group found their marshmallows and began roasting. After a while in silence, the younger boy asked to play truth or dare.
The group threw truth and dare questions at everyone. Finally a dare was thrown at Mara.
"Mara, I dare you to sleep in the deep woods, away from the camp tonight," said the older boy; then he added. "Alone." He knew Mara was afraid of the woods at night that's why he dared her. Any other the others wouldn't have thought twice bout it, but he knew she would.
Mara didn't say anything for a while, but finally agreed with the nod of her head. She was extremely scared, but she didn't want to give into the fear and admit she couldn't do it.
"I don't want to play any more!" complains the younger girl. After thinking, the girl whispered in a spooky voice, "Let's tell ghost stories."
After telling many stupid and gory stories, the older boy began telling a story about a ravenous vampire.
The vampire is a male who is as white as chalk. He has light brown hair with coal black eyes. He is said to roam the woods a night, searching for innocent humans, anyone allow and without protection was good enough dead.
He would send them into a deep sleep and steal them into the night. The unfortunate humans would never be seen by day or night ever again. On most nights deep in the woods, it is said that you can hear the screams of the humans as the vampire finishes them off. No one knows if the stories are true, because every human that has ever experienced it never returned.
"Or so the ghost hunters say, but you can never believe everything you hear," finished the boy, causing everyone to fall silent.
Mara knew the boy made that story up to scare her, but she couldn't help not being scared, she was only human. But, she was not about to give in, and prove that she couldn't handle sleeping outside alone. At that moment a howl was released into the midnight air, breaking the long silence.
"Time for bed," said the younger boy getting up. The others quickly followed behind him going to their tents. About a minute later, the younger girl came out with Mara's sleeping bag, pajamas, and a pillow. She turned her back as Mara changed, and, taking her clothes, said a scared good night.
The lights dimmed as the curtain door closed behind the girl, then vanished as another howl was heard. Mara took up her sleeping bag and pillow and dragged them into the woods, knowing that the older boy was watching her. Finding a nice, comfy spot, Mara placed her sleeping bag on the ground and curled up inside it. She stared up at the sky through the trees and saw thousands of stars watching over her.
I can't fall asleep, I won't, thought Mara as her eyes began to drift. I must stay awake, I can't fall asleep. I can't. But her brain would not allow it. About ten minutes later, Mara was in a deep sleep.
When Mara woke up, she noticed she was no longer in the woods but in a dark house As he eyes adjusted to the dark, she began look around the room. What she saw caused her to scream in terror. There in the far corner of the room was the vampire in the story.
The vampire came running to her in a flash and covered her mouth. No matter how hard she tugged, he would no loosen his grip. Finally, when Mara stopped screaming, the vampire let go of her.
In a quiet whisper, Mara asked what he wanted.
"Nothing……except YOU!" he said and began laughing at her. He grabbed her arm and bit down hard. Mara screaming out in pain, but the vampire did nothing to quiet her. She knew there was no use in trying to get away, so she pleaded with him to stop, but he would not listen to her.
Mara became weaker and weaker, but she did not stop screaming and pleading with him. Finally, just before finishing her off, the vampire decided to let go.
"Please stop…." Mara pleaded one last time.
"I don't care whether you live or die but you have gotten me to stop," said the vampire sitting back. "If I don't continue, you will be turned into one of my kind, a monster, commonly known as a vampire. If I continue, you will be dead, just like the victims before you. Your choice to make, but decide quickly, the venom is spreading through your veins and, when it reaches your heart, your decision will be made. And there will be no turning back!"
"I don't want to die…I'm too young…there's so…so much more…I…I wanted to do…experience...Please…please…I choose…I…"Gasping for breath, Mare screamed out in pain.
"You decision has been made," said the vampire sadly. Suddenly with all his regret forgotten, the vampire continued, "You are now and forever will be a…VAMPIRE!" At this he started laughing.
ONE WEEK LATER
"You are better now," said the vampire walking in. "I'm James. And you are…"
"Mara…Mara Try," said the sweet voice of other vampire in the room.
