• This is stupid, I said to myself as I walked around the football field to get to the back road, how can a couple meth head looking idiots help me? As I walked around I notice a brand new blue Nissan 350z parked at the side of the road behind the school, “no way” I said to myself, as I got closer the window rolled down and who did I see, none other but the stoner from art class, if I remember correctly his name was Jessie, “what do you think of my ride?” He asked with a smile, damn I thought, if he’s driving this he might be able to help. “Get in” he said, I walked around to the passenger side and got in, black leather interior very nice…. “So”, he said as he started the engine, “time to get you a job,” “alright” I said “what will I be doing?” “Well…. this type of job is not your everyday type of job, you’ll be making deliveries”, “deliveries?” “Yep but not your everyday deliveries, what will I be delivering,” “please don’t say sex toys”, He laughed, “no and be grateful,” but, he suddenly got serious, “you will be making deliveries, for a drug cartel,” I looked at him, “really” I said unenthusiastically, he stared me, “what?” I said you expected a different reaction?” “I have always been good at hiding my reactions,” he grinned “good you’ll need that so you in?” I looked at him, and smiled, hell yeah im in!



    3 weeks later I was sitting in a brand new bmw, and not just any Beemer but the 04 bmw m3 series, oh I had plans for this puppy, I was on my way to make another delivery, and expecting 30 grand in payment, I was in the warehouses district, when I parked my car, and walked half a block to a warehouse to deliver the suitcase that Jesse had given me I knocked on the door, and slit opened up, “what” said a voice on the other side, “special delivery,” I said, “what is it?,” “pepperoni extra cheese,” “hang on” he said. The slit closed, and I heard a rather large lock being unlocked, the door opened and it was a guy in as suit, “come on in”, we walked a couple doors down the hall, and came to a doorway, he gestured towards it, “its your lucky day, you get to meet the head of the gang that run you had with the cops last week impressed him,” he said he wants to meet you, oh yeah I remembered a cop had pulled me over during a delivery, so I had to take him down, I didn’t kill him I hate the thought of it but I had dislocated his kneecap and knocked him out with an elbow to the back of the neck, simple job, then I put his own handcuffs on him and locked him in the back of his squad car, later I had demolished the dash board and took out the camera recording of the incident, later me and Jesse had watched the tape and laughed about it, I remembered all this as I walked through the door, I looked in and there was a guy surrounded by six tough looking guys, he was sitting on his desk reading some papers, he was kind of fat reminded me of an Italian mob boss, “hmm” he grumbled as he looked up at me “so you’re the guy eh,” he said with an Italian accent, I had guessed right! “Not bad kid not bad,” as he looked me in the eyes I felt a chill run down my spine, I looked at him and noticed that his skin was way to pale, to be normal, and that he sat very still as he looked at me, its hard to describe but for a few moments I thought I was looking at a statue, until he moved again, “didn’t anyone ever tell you its rude to stare kid?” He asked, “Sorry” I answered, “im just here to make a delivery,” “oh right” he continued “the new stuff, lets see it, then,” I put the suitcase on his desk, but he didn’t open it, “what do you know about this type of dope?” He asked, “not much I am not told anything of what I am carrying,” “I just deliver it sir,” “that’s what I like to hear” he said “but aren’t you curious?” He insisted, what the hell I thought, the guy seems like a talker so ill let him talk maybe if we get along ill get more money. “Well I wouldn’t mind learning a little bit about it, sir,” the guy laughed, “I’ve never met a guy you age that was this respectful these days young people don’t show enough respect,” “well about this stuff its supposed to be so strong that it can even affect kindred,” “kindred I thought, what is that?” I was about to ask but he kept talking, so I didn’t interrupt him, then he went on to explain what type of chemicals were in it, and other boring stuff, but I feigned interest, in it, I glanced at my watch, “you have a prior engagement?” He asked, how did he notice? I thought i hadn’t even checked the time I had just given a quick glance at it, “yes sir” I answered I have date later tonight, (with Megan she had said yes after seeing my ride!) “ah” he said “to be young is a great thing,” “well ill just check the stuff and you’ll get your payment and be on you merry way kid,” he said as he unlocked the suitcase, and looked in, he took out a plastic wrapped cube of white powder, he used his pinky nail to dig in to it, and took a whiff of it, his smile disappeared he took out another pinky nail hit and blew on it making it scatter in the air,, a sweet smell reached my nostrils, it wasn’t dope, it was baby powder…. “What the hell is this?” He asked, “is this some sort of joke”, “I have no idea what has happened sir” I said respectfully, he glared at me, “then explain kid, im all ears”, I thought about it, it must have been Jesse, he had been weird for the past week, I already knew he was an addict, but lately he had been even weirder, he was staying away from sunlight and only came out at night, he didn’t eat or drink water, I guessed he was really tweaked out, he must have wanted something stronger and swiped it out, crap! I explained this to the boss, he didn’t looked convinced, “he’s staying away from sunlight right,?” “To bad for you kid,” Charles, he said to the guy on his left a tall guy with long hair tied in to a ponytail, he said something to him in Italian, the guy walked behind me and gestured me to follow I got up and followed trying hard to stay calm, this was not good, as we walked outside he gestured towards a black Mercedes, “get in” he said, its ok I have my own ca.. “get in” he interrupted, I got in, I really should not have done that, we drove for ten minutes to a river near by, it was not looking good at all, it was already dark I wondered what time it was, he stopped the car near the river “get out” he said, as i got out, noticed that he was reaching inside his coat, a gun! Crap! He saw my reaction and smiled, showing all his teeth, they were amazingly white up to the point of almost glowing in the dark, “im guessing you can guess what happens next!” He walked closer to me “walk” he said as he pointed the gun at me, I turned around and walked towards the water, “you know” he said “I should kill you fast but where would the fun in that be right?,” suddenly I felt pain beyond anything I have ever felt, my body started to spasm as I fell to the grassy floor I managed to turn around the son of a b***h had a taser, I staggered managed to stand up, ha ha ha ha!! He was laughing! “I don’t need a gun I can take you out with my bare hands,” he threw the gun back in to his car, I stood up and glared at him, “oh!” “You have some guts then,” he suddenly rushed at me with amazing speed, I had no chance to react I was sent flying at least ten feet back; there was no pain not yet anyways.. I used a nearby tree to try and stand up but as soon as I moved I gagged, and a sharp pain shot all through out my body, and my stomach felt as if it had smashed up, then I puked today’s lunch onto the grass, “calm down” I thought to myself you can take this guy just use you head, as I stumbled to get up my hand felt something square, the taser! It could be my only shot, and as I thought this I was grabbed by the scruff of the neck and lifted up, now’s my chance I hit the guy with the taser and saw sparks fly from the spot were I hit him and saw him shake a bit, but aside from that nothing happened, “that tickled kid” he said with a big smile on his face, I looked at him, his teeth his cannines were to long to sharp looking, a small light in the back of my head lit up, could he be…. He knocked the taser out of my hand, and threw me in to the water, the shock of the cold woke me up I was starting to black out, he walked in after me oh no kid im not done with you yet! He grabbed me by the neck and pushed my head in to the water, once twice and three times, I gagged every time, during the fourth time I thought im definitely going to die, I was starting to go limp, I saw the guys foot as I loosened up I voice in the back of my head said grab it its you only shot! I went for it and the guy stumbled face first in to the water, his grip loosened and I stood up and tried to stumble away, I heard movement behind me, “you little s**t”!!! He yelled, I turned around and loosened my muscles and waited for the blow, and sure enough another blow to the gut, that send me flying out of the river, It was like getting hit by a truck! But I took the pain, I had to.. Where was It had to be near here I felt around in the dark, “at least you put up a fight kid,” he said, he was right behind me! How had that happened? I was sure he was still in the river, “but I had enough fun for today, its time for you to die,” as he said that I turned to face him I tried to stand up but I couldn’t my legs wouldn’t work, he came closer and leaned down , so that I could hear him better, “you know he said there are several ways I could kill you, and I am kind of hungry right about now”, as he leaned closer I struck, as I had stumbled back, I had found what I was looking for, the taser, the electric shock was amplified by the water, he hadn’t felt it the first time but from the looks of it and he felt it this time, as he dropped to the floor I stumbled away towards the car I was sure the taser hadn’t killed him, I could hear him groan as he spasmed, I opened the door and found what I was looking for, the gun, it was my only chance at survival, I returned to the spot were the guy was twitching, he had been twitching for a while now, the water had really intensified the shock, I pointed the gun at him cocked it, the guy looked at me and giggled, “what’s so funny?” I asked, “your family will be next” he said, “even if you kill me master Giovanni will hunt your family down, its his hobby if he kills someone he goes after the family too, he does that for fun!” I kept my face expressionless, I could barely stand I was carefully balanced, he had stopped twitching, I put my finger to the trigger, “go on kid shoot me,” you have the upper hand here!” My hand shook, “oh!” He said “you have never shot anyone before,” he slowly stood up, pull the damn trigger! I said to my self, “well then if you don’t kill me! Ill kill you!!” He lunged at me I saw his fist coming towards my face, I moved my head lightly to the side to avoid his punch, he was surprised that I had dodged it, and as he fell pout of balance I put the tip of the gun under his chin, it was a sure shot, BANG! The shot echoed through the night, the bullet hit its mark, I had been to dizzy couldn’t see very well I needed him close to me so I could have a sure killing shot, he was dead….. I had killed someone…. I dropped the gun… suddenly the guy started twitching again! What the hell? I murmured, he started to glow bright red! Then there was a burst of flame as he turned in to ash burning his clothes with him, only a pile of ash and a few small embers remained, of him, what the hell was in this gun? I picked up the gun and sat in the driver’s side of the car, and looked at it closely, it was a magnum 45. Revolver, I took one of the bullets out, it looked normal, but the metal tip was a lot shinier, what could it be maybe silver? I laughed at the thought, I recalled what had just happened, the guy had knocked me around like a rag doll, I started the engine, and got on to the street as I took an entrance in to the highway, I said to myself, maybe im dealing with vampires here! And a small voice in the back if my head said maybe you are…..
