A few hours later she and Addison were in the studio, warming up amidst the other corps dancers while the principal dancers were performing their solo on stage. Dori was stretching on the now-familiar grey vinyl floor while Addison was warming up at the barre. Dori sat in a way so that she could see herself in the full length mirror while also watching the others in the room. She wanted to be able to watch her own expression, anxious that her face would give away the terror she was still feeling. For the first time, she felt small in the large room. When the stage music was silent, the high ceilings in the room caused even the softest sounds to echo slightly.

The dancers stretched out their kinks and warmed up their muscles in the hush of the early morning, each lost in their own thoughts. Dori was jarred back to the present as a fellow dancer stampeded in shaking a newspaper at Addison.

“Addison, did you see the paper this morning? It happened again.” Addison didn’t reply, but as she registered what her colleague was saying, her face blanched.

“It says here that the park rangers have confirmed that the attack was similar to your”-suddenly the blabbering ballerina became aware of the dozens of other dancers listening-“well, they say here it was like other situations.”

Addison still said nothing, but a muscle flexed in her jaw. Absentmindedly, her hands fluttered to her hair, playing with flyaway wisps that weren’t there. She turned toward the bar, swallowed hard and began some quick sautés. When Corinne realized Addison wasn’t going to discuss the matter, she turned her attention to the other dancers.

“What else does it say, Corinne?” That was all the invitation she needed. Corinne scurried over to a group of dancers stretching on the floor and dove intr aize="3o the details.

“It says here that shortly after dawn the park rangers happened upon an area where they think another attack happened. There were trees and rocks strewn everywhere, clearly signs of a struggle, right? So nearby there were all of these dead birds, but if it had been an animal that killed them they would have eaten them for food. A park ranger is quoted as saying it looks like they were just ripped open and tossed aside. It’s clearly the work of someone sick. They are already saying it looks like other attacks that have been reported in those woods.” Corinne paused to look at Addison. “The paper says if anyone knows anything they are to call the police with information.”

Dori knew all too well about the monster in the woods. She subconsciously rubbed at her arms, feeling the marks where she had been bitten. Venturing a glance at her friend, she saw Addison biting her lip and frantically practicing on her relèvés. Dori could hear her heart racing. She was clearly upset. Protective of her friend, Dori was instantly angry at Corinne for flaunting the upsetting news. It seemed to Dori that somehow, Addison knew something about the vampire that attacked her, and it wasn’t good.
