I approached the field with caution. As soon as it came into full view, a steel net collapsed on top of me. I was captured.
They brought me to a dark room and pushed me to the ground. One laughed a dark laugh.
"There's going to be less of you," he said, kicking me to the ground as I tried to get up.
"What a waste," said the other man. His voice wasn't as harsh sounding as the other. It was...soothing. I felt something run slowly down my back. It was warm. Human, no doubt.
I lunged at the fingers of the unlucky human. There was suddenly a crushing pressure weighing me down. I thrashed around on the floor, trying to get it off. Then, I stopped. My scarlet eyes widened. I sniffed at the air around me. There was a familiar scent. I felt around the room, trying to trace it. I then stopped at one of the mens' feet.
The scent was from him. Another one of my kind. Another vampire. I looked up into the darkness. The other man switched on the lights. I found myself looking up at the man with the soothing voice.
The human took a step forward and I stammered back against the wall. He took a few more steps towards me. He grabbed my arms and lifted them in the air. I whimpered as he took his other hand, lifted it, and brought it down quickly.
"Damien!" shouted the vampire, bounding over and grabbing his hand just before it hit my bare skin.
"What? She'll barely feel it," Damien snapped. He ripped his hand loose from the vampire's hold
"Have you forgotten? Her skin is very sensitive. We gave her medication so she wouldn't attack us," the vampire said.
"Why do you even care, Alex?" asked Damien, letting go of my wrists.
"Why were you planning on hitting her?" Alex jeered back.
Damien stormed out of the room, completely enraged. Alex stared at me for a second, then helped me up.
"You're not staying here," he said, glaring coldly at the small room.
Afraid to speak, I looked at the floor.
"Come," he said. I followed him down a narrow hallway. We stopped at a door. Alex opened it. "Go on," he said.
I walked into the mysterious room. It had a lot of fancy things. Unlike the other room, it had tables, carpeting, a bed, and even a window.
"I thought you would be more comfortable here. Oh--" he said. I cut him off.
"Will the other man be able to get in here?" I asked. He saw the fear in my eyes and answered politely.
"No. This room is only enter-able by out kind. No human can get in here without a vampire on their flanks," he said.
"Oh. How many of us are there here?" I asked in wonder.
He chuckled.
"Only a few. Four if we include you. You know...they let me choose to live or die. They told me to surrender, and I did so. I've been here for twelve years and never once had any intention of escaping.
I honestly hope they don't kill you. Our kind can't really reproduce without it causing a problem," he explained.
"Reproduce...?" I asked. "Can't we just bite other people?"
"Well yeah, but some vampires have been executed for biting children. But most vampires don't bite people at all because they're scared. One Newborn can destroy a whole town. Only few vampires reproduce like a human. Or through one," said Alex.
He looked at me, his eyes boring into mine. I flinched and he looked away.
"I think I should go," he said, hesitating.
"But what if Damien comes?" I asked, terrified.
"Oh...do you want me to stay?" Alex asked. I nodded. "Okay...I'll stay." He walked over to the chair in the corner, watching me.
I needed to change. So I turned around and quickly shrugged out of my clothes. I had bruises from the steel net. And from Damien. I heard a gasp from behind and I quickly slipped on clean clothes.
"Is that from the humans?" Alex growled. I nodded and he hissed. He walked over and put his hand on my forehead. I gasped. He lifted my shirt up and placed his hand on my chest. My bruises started to disappear.
