The basement of the library contained many ancient texts that must be kept in a sealed room and away from sunlight. Ciara had arrived before sunrise to continue her research on the origin of vampires before class. Maybe if she could find the source of vampirism, she would be one step closer to finding a cure. The alarm she had set went off, so she carefully returned the manuscripts to where they belonged and headed upstairs.
The main entrance of the library was full of of beautiful windows and high arches, and as the vampire neared the exit, a ray of morning light filtered in and hit her arm. With a guttural scream, Ciara dropped the folder she was holding and stumbled backwards as her arm caught ablaze in a pain she had not felt in a dozen years. The scientist was a very calm and rational person, but a primal instinct drove her to escape as quickly as possible. She phased through a nearby wall, appearing on the other side like a ghost. Safe from the sun, she sunk to the floor cradling her burnt arm and shaking all over. Her mind raced to try and think of how she could have ingested human blood, but the scary and disturbing thing was that she couldn’t remember. Oh god, who did she attack?
