His Legacy (1/1)

I could not see. I could not move. I could not think. I just drank. The blood was the most delicious substance ever to coat my tastebuds. It trickled down my throat, hushing its lustful screams, and settled in my stomach, answering its wishes. The deer's blood had no comparison to this taste, no chance at all; it was like water against a chocolate milkshake with vanilla ice cream, both necessary in life, but only one triumphant in the field of flavour. The bloodlust slowly subsided as my raging thirst ebbed away. I unlatched my fangs from the neck of my prey with a satisfied sigh. I opened my eyes to see a young girl standing not too far away from me, a flashlight in hand; her thin, angular face was as white as a sheet and plastered with fear. Beads of sweat glistened on her trembling forehead. Her eyes were glued to my own, two pools of vivid, mind-shattering terror. I recognized her as one of my best friends at school, Kana, but froze in numb realization that the scent of the blood pumping beneath her skin...smelled very similar to the blood I had just indulged myself in... Going against my mind's will, I looked down at the prey in my arms. Lita. Her little sister. No...I frantically felt for a pulse, for any sign of life in the young girl. Nothing. "No..." I gasped. I caressed her torn neck with shaking hands, pressing the pads of my fingers on the wounds.But the blood continued to flow, seeping through her white dress and staining it a deadly scarlet. I removed my hands, fearing that I would hurt her even further with my super-human strength. I looked up fearfully at my best friend and made a move to stand up. "K-Kana--""N-NO!!! S-STAY AWAY FROM ME!!! MONSTER!!!" She somehow managed to un-petrify her fear-racked body and find her voice, though it came out in a hoarse rasp. Before I could utter another sound or initiate another movement, she had taken off, running out of the forest screaming at the top of her lungs. I looked down at the body in my hands...drowning in red. My breath caught in my throat as panic seized my body's every cell. I had killed her... I had killed a human... Oh gosh... somebody help me... I broke down crying, dripping more blood onto the scene. I did not want this. I did not want any of this... I wanted everything to go back to normal. I wanted to wake up at 7:45 in the morning and go to school like a normal student; I wanted to eat lunch on the school rooftop with my closest friends and gossip about who liked who, like a normal student; I wanted to doodle the name of my crush on the inside of my Math notebook while the latter sat three desks away from me, like a normal student; I wanted to sleep in and then go out with my friends or spend time with my family on the weekends, like a normal student. Gosh... I just wanted my life back... "Kim Myungsoo... What have you done to me...?" I hiccuped between nostalgic sobs. Everything that I had...everything that I loved...just yesterday, it was all around me... And just like that, it was gone...snatched right out from my fingertips like a bully stealing some poor kid's lollipop. Lita... that sweet, innocent little girl who followed Kana and I around whenever I came over, that girl who offered us drinks when we were studying, that girl who refused to allow the smile to fade from her face... Dead in my arms. Still choking on my sobs, I closed her unfocused eyes and lifted her with me as I rose to my feet. I made my way back over to the peaceful little creek I sought refuge and cleansing. The deer still lay nearby.Cupping the water in my hands, I washed her face and neck as best I could; the blood trickled into the creek, fusing with the clear water and turning it a cloudy red. Fresh water flowed down the path and soon, the blood was gone, flushed downstream. I lay Lita's frail little body down beside the tree I had sat under and stood up. Looking around, I set off, roaming about the condensed bushes until I finally found what I was looking for. I came back and sank to my knees before her. Placing the wild flower on her chest, I folded her arms over the stem. I tried to picture her in a deep slumber rather than death. Yes... a deep slumber... From which she will never wake... "I'm sorry, Lita..." I whispered.The wind whistled through the trees, as if mourning the loss with me. Lita was one of those whom I treasured most...one of the ones I wanted to avoid...but it seemed fate disagreed with me... First, my life was taken from me... and now, I had taken another's... I wanted to scream. I wanted my thirst to have a true form so that I could strangle it, trample it...burn it. It had used my hands and my fangs to carry out its will...to kill someone I loved... I would not forgive it... I would not forgive him... the one who had implanted the cursed feeling into my brain... Kim Myungsoo... I rose to my feet, shaking with rage. More tears formed in my eyes, the hot, angry tears that burned as they slid down your face. The tears that I shed for Lita were gone, used up. Now, I only had one motive on my mind: revenge. That bastard will pay dearly for what he did to me. "Kim Myungsoo, I swear I will hunt you down and make you regret turning me... I refuse to be the prey any longer. I will not live in the fear of being hunted, because I am now the hunter... and you are my prey..." Kim Myungsoo... _______________________________ Oh my gosh...It's been forever since I last updated...OAO OMO, I'M SO SORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRY FOR BEING SUCH A BAD AUTHOR!!!m(_   _)m  bows 90 degrees x100 Anyhow, I hope you enjoyed the chapter and thank you guys for sticking with this fic!
