The beasts treasure (dinning with vampires)chapter 1
In the morning, when I wake up I'd like to believe someone's thinking of me..
I woke up on a warm summer morning.The air was damp from last nights rain and the birds were singing their early songs.
I crawled out from underneath the hallowed tree stump from which I had been sleeping for the last three days. Stretching with a groan, I looked around to make sure I was alone. Today was the day to leave, my smell would have settled in to the environment and beings were more likely to find me.
I pulled the cloth closer around me and prepared myself for another long run. There was no time for a morning meal today.
With a few stretches and one final deep breath, I straightened my self for a moment and then began to move forward.
I had been running for many hours and it was now mid day.
I stopped to rest and wiped the sweat off my brow, drawing heavy breaths. I was used to long runs, most of my life I had ran to place to place. It was something I was accustomed to now. Letting out a long breath I stood from the spot under a tree I had chosen and began to walk.
Coming across a clearing I stayed near the edge. You never want to walk into a clearing unless you wanna get caught!
The air had cleared and clouds hung over head as it was the rainy season and rained every evening. Looking around the clearing, I saw a lone dear grazing in the tall grass.
I smiled at the sight enjoying the complete beauty in the seen. Then suddenly the deer looked up to my direction, though it was far off I could feel it make eye contact. It didn't fear me at all, we were practically in the same ranks. For a moment our souls were connected and our breaths matched. Then that moment ended.
Neither of us had time to react to the large body and hand clamp down on the dear and scoop it up. Ceiling its fate. It was an ogre. I didn't give myself time to feel remorse before I quickly started running once again. Ogres never travel alone. I didn't get ten feet before a tree was harshly pushed over in front of me bollocking my path.
"You smell absolutely delicious." A gargled voice came out of the gray skinned bodied that stepped in front of me.
I could smell his putrid breath from where I stood and his eyes held my reflection. I had never come this close to an ogre before, but they looked like a giant walking infection, just as my mother had described.
I reacted as fast as I could turning on my heal and taking the longest strides I could. But I just could not be fast enough. A disgusting hand engulfed my waist and jerked me back. "Don't run away little snack. Look at this she smells Wonderful! What is it?" He had spoken to his companion, still holding a dear in his left hand.
"It is covered with that smell of human! So good, so warm and juicy!" The other one spoke, getting closer to me breathing in a long breath through his nose. Disgusting.
With a loud scream- and with my total displeasure- I bit the first thing of the ogre that I could come in contact with.
With a shriek the beast dropped me and I hit the ground hard. Knocking the breath from my lungs. I didn't give myself time to recover, before standing and moving away from them as quickly as possible. "Don't let her get away!" The other yelled lunging forward at me to stop me. Causing him to toss the deer aside, making it free to run freely.
I had hoped my luck would be the same. Tears filling my eyes I avoided the grasp of him and ran for my life.
Breathing fast and ignoring whatever pain was inflicted onto my body as I fled.
They were hot on my trail as tears fell down my face in fear. Sweat was abundant on my brow and my long knotted hair stuck to my skin.
I could almost feel their breath they were so close to me. I felt death come closer and closer, but I would not let up my speed or look behind me.
"I have you!" One breathed down my neck brushing against me and nearly grabbing a hold of my arm.
Just as I was ready to give up hope as we came across a new clearing, with long dry grass and the evening sun reflected off a small pond In The distance. I thought was ready to let this be my last sight, but they fell back with loud groans and yells. "Get out of there you stupid girl! Come here!" They screamed in protest.
Confusion swept over me as to why they stopped following me.
One finally jumped past the tree line to retrieve me. But as soon as he did he was stuck down by an arrow coming my right.
The ogre fell dead on the ground and the other ran away. I looked for the source of the arrow and saw a man.
A Tall, dark haired man stood there boldly, looking me over angrily.
"Who-no what are you!" He yelled towards me.
I hadn't any chance to answer him with my heaving chest rising and falling. I stumbled to my knees, trying to move forward and tried to keep myself up, feeling my normal instinct to run. But I soon had darkness fall over me and I fainted from exhaustion.
Okay chapter one is done!!
