Slamming the Jeep into gear, tossing the book to the passenger floorboard, I push my foot hard against the gas pedal and move forward so fast that my body presses roughly into the seat, leaving me feeling like I’ll melt through the smooth surface and come out the other side.
Food, Water, Air
-Tilda-
Time is nothing.
To the boy who never ages.
“You’re… you’re… No, it can’t be.” I stutter out the words.
“Seriously, that’s your response?” The boy turned in a circle, putting his arms out and indicating the strange, magical forest around us. “Look around you, stupid.”
“God, you really like to name call and insult, don’t you!” I stamp my foot. “Is that a vampire trait or just a jerk trait?”
“Hmm.” He seems to consider for a moment, “I was relatively nice as a human, so I’d go with vampire.” And then comes a self-satisfied, cocky smile and I want to both knock him on his butt and also smile with him.
His face changes suddenly though, before I’ve decided what to do. It goes from humanly boyish to animal, dark, bestial. And then he is launching towards me, mouth open, fangs bared. He’s a vampire. God, he’s a vampire.
And I’m going to die.
Jon is inches from me, I flinch back away instinctively. He grumbles, seeming exasperated through the fangs… which creates a really odd effect of muffled half-groan, half-scream. His left hand reaches for me, grips my right upper arm, and launches me to the side so hard I hit the nearest tree with an air-rushing-out-of-my-lungs, violent thud. I fall down, my body against the cool earth and slightly-damp leaves.
My vision is a tad bleary for a moment; I shake my head to focus. Shake it again when I still can’t see well. And then, there he is. Jon is atop something large and furry. He is making these disturbing, suckling noises that turn my stomach. It seems to go on and on. The creature cannot still be alive. Is he drinking its blood? He must be drinking its blood.
I want to stand and run, but I find that my legs will not work—not in the way of being handicapped, but in the way of fear. Sharp, poignant, mind-numbing fear.
The sucking sound stops. I still stay on the ground with my back against the tree. My head is no longer spinning. The moonlight seems to wave and thicken and spread until I can see every sharp inch of the scene in front of me.
On the ground, nearly at the same level as my head, is a giant wolf. A wolf the size of a grown black bear. From the slack face of the great creature, I look up to find Jon. He is wiping his mouth against his sleeve, but the action does little save smear the blood that looks so very black, despite the night light above us. He’s about to say something, but then his expression warps and wrestles, fighting to not change feelings, but it does. And that feeling is sickness.
