I returned to my body half an hour before dawn. Vivian sat on the altar above me, playing games on her phone.

Dust filled the temple’s corners, remainders of the vampires who came to kill me at night. In spite of all the drama, Vivian was reliable.

I rose and she put down the phone.

“Well, well, well, someone has finally gotten up,” she said venomously.

“Took longer than expected.” I stretched to fill my muscles with blood. “Is there any trouble lurking around?”

“No, and if you were planning to go to the office, don’t.” She pointed at a large, wooden casket to the side. “I packed up for you.”

Interested, I walked to the casket, and removed the lid. Inside lay fresh clothes and my main weapons. Good. I undressed to change, putting on a fresh suit and shirt, new tie and shoes. I placed my sword’s sheath across my back, my knife behind my belt, and stared at the last items in the box, a pair of Colt Anaconda’s in holsters.

Those were my first weapon, left to me by my father when he abandoned us when I was eight. They served me for years. But now, there was nothing the colts could do that my magic couldn’t.

I closed the casket, leaving them inside. I buttoned up my suit, threw the leather coat over my shoulders, arranging it so the sword’s hilt peaked out through the collar behind my neck, and donned my hat.

Once finished, Vivian gave me an appraising stare. “Come here.”

With a shrug, I walked to the altar.

She slid down and straightened my tie. She caught my nape, pulled herself up, and kissed me. “Good luck,” she whispered after her blazing lips detached from mine.

Wordless, I turned, and headed into the dawn.
