Chapter 1
    It was cold and damp outside. All he felt was the wind blowing at his torn clothes and the leafs crunching under his frost bit feet. It was February and they were after him already? He heard them hot on his trail and he forced himself to move faster. He was low on breath. Panting with every step he took. Why now? Why in the middle of the night? He asked himself, this just isn't right! I don't know where she is!
    A man yelled off far in the distance.
 "Right now I shouldn't be thinking, just doing. I can't let them catch me!" He said to himself. He tripped and scraped his knee. He winched in pain but didn't make a sound. Oh crap, he is closer! His pointed ear flinched towards the noise. The crunches of the leafs were not very distant anymore. He forced himself to move faster. His nails grow longer and sharper for defense. His teeth more jagged.
I am really freaking out! He thought. Finally he could go no more. He was breathing in wild gasps. With the rest of his strength, he climbed the nearest tree. Wasn't easy being bare foot. He scraped his heel a couple of times.
Once he was on the lowest tree branch, he froze and sniffed the air. If he wasn't mistaking, the enemy was underfoot! His foot that he scars started to bleed. The boy bit his lip. The single drop of blood was the ticket to his death. The enemy wiped his head up. With very little might, jumped the tree. In a spilt second, the boy was hammered to the tree, gasping for air in which the man made his hand in an iron grasp on his neck.
"Where is she!" The man demanded.
"I-I don't know what your talking about!" He lied.
The man's marble lips formed a grin, " Of course you don't." He dropped the boy and he weezed.
"The man turned around and started pacing " You don't know your own sister? Ha! You think you could fool me boy? Well it seems I wont be getting anything out of you so why waist a perfectly healthy boy?" He spun around and graped the boys neck again. The child's eyes widened in terror.
The boy scream in pain as two sharp needles dug into his skin. Feeling the moisture leave his body, turning him into a rasin. The sky didn't seem so dark any more. The moon was replaced by a small white light. His eyes didn't move from that very spot. He forgot the pain. All he wanted to do was follow that light. It seemed to get closer and closer until all he saw was white, then finally nothing. Plan black.
The man moved his lips from the boys neck. Smiling very pleased as the child didn't blink nor move.
He jumped down from the tree in a single leap. The police will be here for him shortly. I must move on. That vampire girl is more of value of any type of gold. I must make her mine.
