• Vampires of the Forest
    Chapter1: the forest
    As I sprinted down the long and spiraling staircase I heard a piercing scream coming from up stairs. I tripped on my beautiful dark purple gown, but the weird thing was is that I never reached the ground. I was caught by a man wearing dark clothing. He told me to go into the forest and hide in there. I didn’t even know what was going on. I did as he said and as I walked toward the edge of the forest I saw a girl with pale white skin. The wind made her beautiful long black hair flow in the breeze of the night. I closed my eyes to see if she was just an allusion, I opened them back up and she was there. I yelled Hello! She turned her head toward me slowly and her eyes were bright red. I thought could it be? No! There was no possible way that she was a vampire. As our eyes met, she gave me a smile that was eerie but, yet so beautiful. She opened her mouth as if to speak, but all that came out was an eerie hiss. When she hissed at me her fangs came out. There was bright red blood dripping down from her fangs drip, drip, drip, drip. When I saw the bright red blood dripping I looked down to see her sucking on an innocent dead deer’s blood. It was then when I figured out why she hissed at me, she was annoyed at me for interrupting her feast on the dead deer’s bright red blood. I didn’t realize there was a kind of vampire that drank blood from animals. I could tell she could sense that I too was a vampire because of the expression on her flawless face.

    Chapter 2: Vampire

    Before when I was walking toward the edge of the forest I sensed a vampire a mile away, but I would have never thought that I would ever meet another vampire. The vampire who hissed at me looked back down at the deer she just finished devouring and she licked her fangs and walked away. Before I could ask her anything, she was gone. As legends say in the seventeenth century, all the vampires were killed by a horrible plague sent by an evil half mortal named Zero. Except one vampire who’s powers were stronger then zero. So that vampire killed Zero and captured his powers so that they could never be released.


    Chapter 3: Alice

    It was late, so I slept under a tree that was rough and felt like sandpaper. The night was a sleepless one; so many thoughts were racing through my mind. Who was that vampire, what happened upstairs when I heard the screaming, and what else do I not know about my families lives. The next morning I was awakened by that vampire I saw last night. She all of the sudden said “Why are you here?” I retorted “A man sent me here to hide.” She said”Hide from what?” Well I don’t really know, I heard this screaming when I was running down the stairs, then I tripped, and a man wearing dark clothing caught me and told me to hide here in this forest. “Well you shouldn’t be here fellow vampire.” I’m sorry I just did as he said. “I will lead you the way out of the forest, and if you ever need me just call for me. “That reminds me what’s your name is?” my name is Alice the last vampire of my clan. “My clan is the only one that drinks the blood of animals.” My name is Isabella; what my family has told me, is that I am the last of all vampires on earth. “Ahhh, yes I know that legend and what clan you are from, you are from the clan that only drinks blood from humans that are alive. And once you’ve done that they turn to vampires. The legends I have also heard said my parents died when I was a child so, my aunt and her sick husband took care of me until the day they died. It is very hard for me to know what is true and what is a myth. “I see, now that we know each other you may come here whenever you please. Also come to this forest tomorrow, and meet me under the Dead tree. I will send someone to meet you at the edge of the forest and they will lead you to the tree. You will then meet someone with bluish dark hair; you might be interested in talking to him.

    Chapter4: Meet Edward

    I arrived at the edge of the forest after another sleepless night at an abandoned cabin. There he stood, a man with black hair waiting for my arrival. I said hello, he seemed to be unfriendly by the grunt he I heard coming from his non-aging face. Even though his voice sounded like a thousand year old dinosaur. He leaded me to the Dead tree. The Dead tree had no leaves and the bark was gray and black with termites crawling all over it. We stood there for a brief second and then out of nowhere, a man with bluish dark hair and dark clothing just like the man who caught me when I fell appeared. Then he said “Nice to see you again.” I thought: I knew it is him. As soon as I saw those bright red eyes I knew that he too was a vampire. I knew he wasn’t part of Alice’s clan because she is the last of her clan. The man who led me here, asked the man who caught me “where’s Alice? Edward” Oh, so your Edward? I asked. “Yes, I am Edward the one of two vampires left in my clan. My clan is the one who does not suck blood from animals nor humans; we don’t suck blood at all. We are half mortals; we take blood tablets to keep us from sucking blood from humans so we don’t kill them. The man that brought me here said"My name is Lawliet,I am from the clan that never ages. No matter how old we are our body never ages." I am 250 years old. "I said, do you have a life span?" "NO,we are also immortal."
    THen Alice appered, and she said"I know what happened upstairs were you live. Zero, the what to be be said as dead is alive and he killed an innocent mortal named Caren." "Could it be?Is it Caren Kimberly my mortal cousin?" "yes, also as you can see I can read your mind Isabella." "I have to go!" I yelled as I made my way down the dark and foggy path out of the forest.
