pure vampire

"Come babe you know you want us"

"No, please no I-I changed my mind. Please don't"

Hearing the girl's scared voice instantly angered me. The two men had her pushed against a brick wall next to a dumpster. Their dirty hands were running all over her body. She continued to cry and plead for them to stop.

I stood in the shadows of the night contemplating my decision. I know I shouldn't be a hero. Last time that happened a vampire ended up killing me. However this time I'm the vampire.

The sound of her shirt being ripped open made the choice for me. Like wind I gusted over there so fast it was as if I was it. The men's backs were to me but the woman instantly locked eyes with mine. She looked so afraid and helpless. Her overly curly blonde hair and chubby freckle face reminded me of someone I used to know; me.

"I believe the lady asked you to stop" I say smoothly making my presence known to the men. They both snapped around to face me. One was of darker complexion with lots of gold chains. The other was overly tanned wearing a cheap suit and bad haircut. Mr. Suit smiled a crocked tooth smile at me. I could smell the alcohol oozing from their pores, mixing with their disgusting arousal.

"Look Buzz we got ourselves a pretty little party crasher" Mr. Cheap suit said eying me up and down

"Naw, she too skinny for me Skip. You take her. I like my women with meat on her bones" Buzz said laughing and squeezing the woman's cheeks hard enough to bruise.

"Walk away now guys and save us all the trouble of having to watch me hurt you" I say coolly.

Of course the idiots only laughed. This served to piss me off more than I already was. Casually I drop my bag and prepare myself for an unscheduled fight. Skips cocks his head to the side regarding my movements. He still doesn't look afraid of me but soon I'll change that. He takes a step forward swinging his right fist at my face I dodge it easily. Skip tries again and again, but I dodge left and right so quickly he doesn't have a chance to land a hit on me. He stops. Looking confused before trying to kick me. I swiftly block that

"What the hell?" Skip says. I'm done playing with him. I send a forceful punch to his face knocking him out cold.

His buddy Buzz is oblivious to the actions taking place behind him. He slips his hand up her short shirt. The chunky girl tries to squirm from his grasp. I run up behind him grabbing the back of his head and slamming it into the brick wall. The girl yelps in surprise and we both watch his unconscious body fall to the ground.

I can hear the faint beat of his heart so he should only be out a few hours. I promised myself long ago I wouldn't kill any humans. Now if these guys were vampires, well that's a whole different ball park.

The shaking girl furiously whips her wet eyes. I don't say anything to her. I simply walk away, grabbing my duffel bag and walking back down the alley.

Why does it seem like trouble just finds me? I hope that girl just runs off and doesn't file a report using my description. That's a new problem I don't need. I hear the clicking of heels approaching from behind. I groan inwardly. A second later the girl I just saved is trying to keep up with my strides

"Hey wait!" She says taking hold of my arm. I sigh dramatically but stop to face her.

"Thanks for what you did back there." She pulls down her short, too small skirt and smiles timidly. I nod and continue walking

"Can I give you a ride somewhere?" She asks

"No" I reply not turning back

"Please! If it wasn't for you those guys would have…Look please let me make it up to you." She pleads. I stop mid step. I hope I don't regret this.

Turning around I meet her back where she was standing. She smiled happily as she led me to her car. A few blocks later she stops in front of a black Porsche. Wow nice car! She must be loaded

"My dad is a very successful business man. The car was a gift." She answers the question I didn't ask.

Before I get into the car I sprinkle some platinum outside the door. The good thing is if somehow they follow my scent from the forest to here this is where they lose it. Getting into the car here will make it seem as if I disappeared into thin air.

We drive in silence for a few minutes. I take the time to look her over. Her clothes do look expensive but just too small for her larger frame.

"Where can I take you?" She asks fidgeting under my stare

"Bus station" I reply coldly

"No bus station, they're gross. I'll drive you anywhere you want, no matter the distance." She says back getting on the freeway. I can't let her take me to Mercy Falls. She would be a liability if somehow Marcos found our connection.

"Just get me as far from the city as you can. I'll be fine from there" I tell her looking out the window at the passing cars and city lights

"My dad has a house just outside Seattle. We could crash there tonight and finish the drive in the morning" She offers as an alternative. That works for me. I'll just ditch her before she wakes anyway.

We drive in silence for a few more minutes before she speaks again

"Uh you're like really pretty. Why are you wandering alone in alleys?" She asked curiously. I whip my head to her

"Why are you dressed like a hooker with too tight clothes fucking around with drunk losers?" I snap back. She gasped, tightening her grip on the wheel. I could see her eyes well up with tears. I instantly regretted my harsh words.

"It's my 19th birthday today; January 1st. These girls told me if I dressed like this, that guys would like me. So I listened. I followed the girls I met at the mall today to the club, paid for everything and after midnight they called me a fat loser and ditched me. I was so humiliated I ran from the club and those men found me in the alley." She explained with tears running down her face. Now I feel like even more of a jerk than before. This girl reminds me so much of myself in this moment it's scary.

"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that" I apologize gently. She smiled a sad smile and shrugs

"It's okay. I've heard worse" She laughed turning up the radio to a song I've never heard.

We listen to the music in a peaceful silence. From what I can tell she seems like a good girl. Just a bit of an outsider like me. After an hour's drive we end up on a country road. She pulls up to a huge white house will tall windows. As I get out I look at the beautiful fountain with fish spitting water from its mouth. Geez the girl's dad is loaded. I follow her inside into the equally immaculate living room.
