• CHARLES

    charles entered into the clearing and stared at me with his black eyes. His black hair was uncombed by much running. He smirked. " Here you are, Rachel " he said to me. " What do you want" I replied. " you know what I want". Of course I knew it. He came for me. Stupid vampire. He wanted to kill me because I didn't want to help him. Stupid vampire.


    "Charles, you killed all my family and friends, and you know I don't care if you kill me. You can't make me suffer more". I replied. He stared at me with a mischievous smile in his stupid face. "I think you have one friend" he said. I panicked. Could he know about the vampire that was hid behind the tree? I thought that no, I only knew him for a few minutes. But... if he wasn't talking about that vampire... who was she talking about?.


    "Oh! I'm sorry, I was wrong... I killed Mery a few days ago..." he laughed. No! Mery! he... he can't... " you... you.... killed Mery?" I asked with choked voice. " Yes" he answered. I fell on my knees. Mery... my only friend iin this world, the only person I had to protect. I failed her... Charles killed her... It couldn't be possible, she couldn't be dead. She couldn't...


    I started to cry and Charles laughed at me. Then, he attacked me. Like all the vampires, he had a power. My family was allways the most powerful family of all vampires, but I was more powerful than all of them. Charles was as powerful as I was. His power was destructive. He could kill you without even touching you. It was as if the wind cut. It hurt, it really hurt, but, Why to fight?. Why to fight if you haven't got anything important in this world?. If I wasn't dead already, it was because I had to protect Mery. But she's dead. Then, why to fight?.


    I didn't move. I waited for him to finish with me. I wanted to die. I didn't want to fight. "So now you give up? Aren't you going to fight?" he asked. I didn't answered him. I just stayed where I was. He attacked me stronger. I shouted in pain but I didn't move, I just waited. He laughed and continued attacking me.


    At that moment, the vampire that was still hid behind the tree jumped over Charles. Why did he do such a stupid thing?. I got up from the ground at the time in wich Charles launched the vampire against a tree. " What the hell are you doing!?" I shouted to the vampire. I had to fight. If I didn't, Charles would kill that stupid vampire, so I jumped over Charles and punch him in the face. " So you fight now?" he asked. I kicked him and launched him away of the clearing.


    It was time to use some of my powers. My powers couldn't kill people, but they could make people believe that they were diying if I stared at them and concentrated. Most of the vampires fell and didn't move, unable to do anything. But Charles was powerful. He could run away.


    I stared at Charles in the eyes and concentrated. I started to feel the energy through all my body. Charles tried to look away from me, but he couldn't. You're diying I thought. Charles face was panicked. " You're diying" I whispered. His gaze was distant. After a few seconds, he started to go back, and then he ran away.


    I walked toward the other vampire and helped him get up. "Are you OK?" I asked him. "Yeah... what's about you?". I was still bleeding a little but I was fine. "I'm good. Why did you do that?". "He was going to kill you!" he replied. "I don't care" I said. "Why? and why did he attack you?". "I told you, it's a long story".I said staring at him. "And I told you I have time" he smirked. "We can go to my house. You can stay there if you want, but you have to tell me why did he attack you." he said. "I don't even know you" I replied. He smiled " I'm Jason" I smiled him back "I'm Rachel". "So, are you coming with me?" he asked. "OK, I go". "But you have to tell me about you". "OK... I'll tell you". I said.


    He started the way to his house and I followed him.
