Innocent Blood

 

Chapter two: Police, Hunters and other problems

 

Around on hour after Shadow returned home the police stood in front of the door, knocking until he opened. “John Sanders, you are under suspicion of having killed more than 60 young women within the past year.” Acting surprised and shocked he answered “What? I swear on my life, I didn’t do it. Have you got any evidence on that?” A moment of silence passed until one of the officers returned “Not yet. But if we should find your DNA on any of your victims you’ll face the electric chair. And now you’d better cooperate and tell us where you hide Ashley Johnson.” Silence. Shadow just drew on his cigar and whistled innocently. He knew they wouldn’t be able to prove his guilt since he never left any useful DNA, finger-prints or other traitorous things. Having 52 chromosomes definitely had its advantages, as well as being physically dead. While he was dragged out of his house Shadow was convinced that it was just a matter of time until he was free again.

Two days have passed since he has been arrested and Shadow was lying silently under the plank bed in his cell, always watching out not to let the sun shine on him through the little barred window above. Boredom and hunger drove him almost mad and he even got no sleep. Without his coffin he was completely helpless. Pissed off he grasped for his lunch and threw the plate against the wall. “Stupid prison food. Another few days without blood and I look like a raisin”, Shadow thought and giggled but within the next second he calmed down again. Screams reached his ear as well as the sound of gunfire. Within a few seconds everything became silent again and a person dressed in black appeared in the hall. Blood dripped off the coat and the dagger he or she held in the right hand. As the guard stood up the dagger flew towards him and pierced his head. He immediately fell dead to the floor. A grin showed up on Shadow’s face as he realized he could flee now. The unknown one slowly came closer and shot the lock a few times until the door was open, then he threw a coat and his suit into the cell. “Put this on or you’ll burn your skin. And the follow me.” “Who are you?” Surprised Shadow asked while dressing but he got no answer. As he asked again the person just frowned “No questions! Just do as I say!” Sighing he stood up and followed his savior through the empty halls. Guards were lying on the floor, their arms, legs or heads ripped off. Most of them had a scared and frightened look in their eyes. It was a paradise for a necrophilic like Shadow thought but he didn’t dare to tell this grotesque and disgusting joke.

It was evening already as Shadow reached his house but he couldn’t enter. The police was still in, searching for some evidence. He had to hold himself back to not curse around. Just a simple “F**k” went over his lips as he sat down on the roof of the neighbor’s house. The unknown one stood right next to him and couldn’t help but laugh about the misfortune of the vampire. And it should get even worse. Before Shadow even noticed what was going on, a rope was wrapped around his neck and wrists and he was pulled off the place. “Where are you taking me?” Insensible laughter reached his ear and suddenly something hard hit his head and knocked him out.

As Shadow woke up again he was tied to a chair and some vampire hunters surrounded him. He yelled while trying to get rid of the rope but before he could free himself a wooden plug was rammed into his heart. He immediately stopped moving and watched the scenario for he wasn’t able to do anything anymore. Still alive but paralyzed he sat there while the unknown one showed upin front of him and lifted the hood of the coat. Short blond hair was hanging before light-blue eyes like a curtain. The thin face was almost sexless but the eyes and lips were showing that it was a woman. The surprise was clearly visible on Shadow’s face. Not only that she managed to tie him up completely without him noticing it, she even made him believe she was a male. Surrounding her victim she finally raised her insensible sounding voice and said “If you wish to survive you’d better do as we say. We urgently need help in getting rid of any vampires alive on this planet and who would be better for this purpose than a vampire himself. You have to cooperate without questioning anything we ask of you. In return we would supply you with anything you need, may it be equipment for your missions or something for your well-being. Please, accept this offer for you don’t have any other option.” Shadow wasn’t saying one thing and his empty eyes were staring at the same point they were looking at when the plug pierced his heart. The young woman was walking around in front of him, waiting for him to answer but she forgot about the fact that he was paralyzed. Losing her nerves she kicked the chair he sat on so it fell backwards. Shadow’s head hit the floor and his arms, still tied to the back of the chair, broke with a loud crack that made everyone within the room freeze for a second. A few moments passed until one of the vampire hunters realized why Shadow didn’t move or speak. Pulling the plug out of his heart he immediately got kicked in the stomach and sunk down on his knees. From one second to another Shadow was standing right in front of the hunter, his bones already coming out through his flesh and skin. Growling he took a few steps towards the kneeling man, bit his neck and ripped open his throat. But before he even realized a blade was pressed against his throat and slowly cut into his flesh. “Cooperate or die”, the young woman’s voice echoed through the room and Shadow calmed down, knowing he would lose his head if he didn’t. He sighed as he involuntarily decided to aid them. But he would only do it on one condition: “No rules!” The small room was immediately filled with laughter as he spoke out the words that meant freedom to him. “You would not do what we want if we would grant you this wish. But we can negotiate about the terms of our business relationship, if you want.” Shadow didn’t seem too happy with that but in the end he finally agreed for he had no other choice. The little bit of freedom they would offer him would be more than he could ask for in his position.

Shadow got out of the negotiations early in the morning. He had no success and the only demands taken care of were theirs, not his. “At least they didn’t chain me to the wall”, he thought and took a look at his new home. It was a small room, a table stood right below the window and a bed as well as a wardrobe stood on the left wall. Other than that the room was empty. Bored Shadow went to the wardrobe to look for some other clothes but what he found wasn’t quite his style. Sighing he sat down on the bed and looked out of the window. The sun was already rising and there was no coffin, no place to hide from it but on the dirty floor under the table. His mood directly turned from bad to worse. Either he would risk a sunburn or he would ruin his suit and both possibilities were horrible, at least from his point of view. Sighing he lay down on the bed and hoped that it wouldn’t hurt too much.

”It’s supper-time, you maggot. Get up or you have to go on your first mission without a filled stomach.” The young woman stood in the door-case and expected to see an ill-humored, hungry vampire leaning on the wall but there wasn’t. As she took a few steps in she noticed a smoking, burnt body lying on the bed, its fingers slowly moving her direction. A tortured, gasping moan reached her ears as the formerly good-looking man crawled down to the floor. The woman stumbled backwards against the wall and grasped for a cross and a knife that was fixed to her belt. Soundless laughter came over the vampire’s lips as he mover closer. As his fingers scratched her ankles she kicked his head, rammed the knife into his back where she supposed his heart would be and ran towards the door. The moment she wanted to flee his low voice echoed through the room, calling for help while his body still burnt a bit. Now that he was no threat for her, that he wasn’t even able to walk or speak loud and clearly, she did pity him. His eyes opened wide he was staring at her, waiting for her to do something about his situation but she couldn’t. The pain- and fear-filled look in his eyes made her freeze. She could just stand and watch while Shadow finally lost consciousness, his body being nothing more than a giant briquette.

I'd prefer to be hated for what I am instead of being loved for what I'm not!
Sadness is just another word for not enough pizza!

Boo f*ckin hoo you're not the only one whose live's a piece of sh*t,
And yet miraculously somehow we all seem to deal with it.
Did anybody think that you would really seriously slit your wrists?
In fact I think that everybody thinks you're seriously full of sh*t.
You think you're saying something relevant as you connect the dots,
You never realized you have to get in line to suck a c*ck.
You're telling me that fifty million screaming fans are never wrong.
I'm telling you that fifty million screaming fans are f*cking morons.
You don't mean it.

Innocent Blood

Chapter Three: Innocent like a human

As Shadow woke up it was dawn already. The smell of blood and burnt skin crawled up his nose and the pale daylight breaking through the darkness warmed up his cold body. For a moment he enjoyed this situation but only for as long as he could stand the light. It was silent. Not even the birds were singing their ballads to welcome the day. Some minutes passed on until Shadow got up and out of the blood-filled bath-tub. Just at that moment the door opened and the young woman, who has forsaken him the moment he needed her most, entered the room and closed the curtain to keep the sunlight outside. "I see you've learned from your mistakes", he said and started laughing. The look he earned for that comment was cold and meaningful. She seemed to be pissed like hell but that didn't seem to impress him much. He was just givin ger back an arrogant, self-confident grin that completely disarmed her. Denying the fact that he already won this competition she pushed him back into the bath-tub and opened the curtain again. "Serves you right, you brain-dead idiot", she yelled and went back out.

By nightfall Shadow crawled out of his hide-out again. 14 hours of permanently hiding from the sun in nothing more than a bath-tub filled with blood weren't very pleasant, not even for a vampire. Silently he went out of the room and walked down the dark hallway, listening to every noise to find his victim. He wanted revenge, even if it takes whatever measures nessecary. Blood still dripped off his naked body and his hair was hanging in front of his face as he entered a small room at the end of the corridor. A few hunters were sitting around a table, looking at him as if he were the eighth wonder of the world. "What are you guys staring at?!? Eyes up here!" Two of his fingers were pointing at his eyes and he continued "Three little questions for you guys. First: Where is the shower? Second: Where are my clothes? And thrid: Where's that b*tch who left me helpless in the bathroom for 14 hours?" Laughter immediately sounded through the whole building as he ended hi sentence. What was horrible for him meant fun to them because he's shown them that even the mightiest can be stuck in an embarrassing situation created by someone weaker than himself. Shadow silently left the room, shaking his head of so much stupidity. The number of people who could kiss his ass rises every day and today there have been five more on his list, far more that usually.

Shadow spent hours in his room waiting for someone to bring his suit and he almost lost his nerves. His opinion about humans hasn't changed by that. They were unreliable, never on time and they always think of their advantage first, at least in his eyes. He denied that he was actually just the same. Bored and pissed like hell he started walking up and down in the room. His mood worsened every second and as the door to his room finally opened he screamed "Why took you so long, you punk? Shall I catch a cold or do you just love to see others sitting around in nothing more but their own skin?" The look that was given back to him was a surprised one, but within a second the surprise turned to laughter as the young woman realized what was going on: Her self-appointed most bitter enemy standing naked in front of her being more than just angry. What was most funny about this situation was the fact that he was looking so innocent right then, just like a sulky kid that has just been told that it will be kept in the next few weeks. Shadow's face was turning red and he was almost about to explode. He wasn't able to calm himself anymore, jumped against her chest and pulled her down to the floor. Fear-filled eyes were staring up to him as he wrapped his fingers around her neck to choke her. He could feel every breath she took and the blood that was pulsing through her arteries while he narrowed his grip. Struggeling to stay alive she grabbed for one of the knives sticking behind her belt and rammed the blade deep into Shadow's head. A demonic smirk showed up on his face as he pulled the knife out with his left hand, still choking her with the other one. Hate and anger suddenly turned to pleasure. Seing his victim struggle within his grasp clearly improved his mood. After a few more minutes of humiliating her Shadow came to the conclusion that she's had enough and his little revenge for everything has been taken. He grasped for her arm, dragged her to the door and kicked her out of his room, laughing mischievously.

The next morning Shadow already sat in the small kitchen gnawing at a piece of cold pizza as the hunters entered the room with sleepy eyes. A forced smirk on his face one of them yelled "Ya know that there's garlic on it, don't ya?" He was earning a cold smile for that comment and Shadow immediately grasped for another piece just to see their stupid faces. The longer he was forced to cooperate with those religious vampire-hunting idiots the sooner he would die of boredom and the mass of stupidity. To make his stay at least a bit more comfortable he planned on systematically ruining their mood as soon as they tried to do the same to him. Still chewing on a piece of pizza he said "While God was around to give brains to the humans you guys must have been off to the toilet, haven't you?" The butter-knives flying towards his head pierced his right eye and his cheeks, one even ripped away his left ear. "Now this is more like it", Shadow frowned laughing, stood up and kicked against the table so that it crashed hard against the wall. His cold, arrogant grin went wider with every second they feared him. The hunters went back towards the door to flee but they couldn't. As the young woman sleepily stepped into the small room Shadow gave her a a sexy wink that didn't actually mean something. He just did it to spread confusion and he definately succeeded. A bewildered expression on her face she stumbled backwards and formed a cross with two of her fingers. Perplexed and irritated one of the hunters asked "Hey, I thought you hate June, or better yet that b*tch, like you called her yesterday. Why did you change your mind so quickly?" Laughing Shadow returned "Who said I'd ever change my mind about anything? But to answer your question, I made a pretty interesting and somewhat erotic experience with ... June, if I got the name right." Eyesripped open wide all looks were now fixed to the only woman in the room who once again stumbled backwards and fell to the floor. The explanation of the last eveninig's happening was short. "He just choked me. He's into SM, believe me." Laughter filled the room, dark and sacry and loud. Giggling Shadow stepped into the hall, lighted a cigar and lent June a hand, a wide and filthy grin on his lips. For a short moment June didn't know what to do but then she just spit on his hand and went off the place, not taking even one look back. "I love it when she gets b*tchy, oh yeah!"

"What were you thinking when you said this embarrassing stuff this morning?" June hardly managed to keep Shadow out of her room. She was angry and even a blind one would have seen that but he didn't give a damn. He never knew some sort of emotion, neither hate nor love nor anything else. Being a heartless bast*rd, even back in his human-times, made him forget that others do have feelings and even show them. This was something he would never understand and he didn't want to. Only once in his life he felt something but only for a short time, then his feelings got lost again. Amused he said "What's your problem? At least I didn't say that you liked it, or did I?" His filths mile didn't even disappear after receiving a slap in the face. June had enough of his arrogant behavior and tried to push him out the door but as soon as he was out he was back in again, standing right behind her. She shivered as his hands touched her shoulders and as he moved closer she could feel his cold breath on her neck. Just as she wanted to flee he whispered "I'm sorry. How about we start over new?" June turned and expected seeing his typical grin but instead she saw his most serious expression ever sinde he was forced to cooperate with them. So he really means it she thought, poked his shoulder and replied "Fine, let's restart then. But for the choking thing you still have to face payback"
