the dark alleyway

That night I did something really stupid. All because of a stupid dare. I was walking through an old, dark alleyway. There have been 13 deaths here in the past month.

Then I saw someone standing against a wall. A teenage boy maybe a few years older then me. He had floppy black hair and big brown eyes. He seemed different from any other teenage boy I have ever seen.

I stood frozen, over whelmed with fear. He started walking towards me. I wanted to scream for help, but I couldn't. He stopped right in front of me.

Then at that moment I realized he wasn't human. He was an immortal. He was a vampire. I saw his razor sharp fangs just waiting to drink my warm blood.

"who are you?"
"I'm Stark. What's your name?"
"Becca,why do you care?"
"Becca,why are you walking through an alleyway at night? It's not safe,some creep could be walking around,ready to slaughter a teenage girl."
"It was a dare and the only creep I've seen is you. Now move."

I could see Stark was getting angry. A low growl came out of his mouth. I screamed and started to run as fast as my legs would allow. But Stark was right on my heels,his jaws snapping. Then i tripped over something; a dead body. Yuck!

"Becca!" Ashley yelled from the other side of the alley. I would have answered her, but i'm more focused on the crazy vampires who's chasing me.

Then Stark stopped and helped me up. What a gentleman.

"I'm sorry, I lost my temper back there. Are you okay?"
"No, I am not okay! I don't liked being chased by crazy vampires!"

I started walking in the other direction towards my house. Stark came running after me. In less then 10 he had caught up and was now walking at the same pace as me.

"I really am sorry. Co you think I'm a monster?"
"Yeah, I do think you're a monster. How could you kill all those people? Did you lose your temper around them too?"
"I didn't kill them. My older brothers, Tazer and Jagger killed them."
"Why are you lying? Just admit that you killed all those people."
"I'm not lying."

I started to run as fast as I could. I had to get away from him. When I looked back he was gone.

When I got home it was after midnight. I was dead tired, so I went to my room. When I turned on the lights I saw 2 immortal guys sitting on my bed. Maybe i should have believed Stark.

I wished my parents were home. Why did they have to go to Vegas this weekend?

"Look our snack just walked in." Jagger said.

Then I heard the back door open.

"Mom, dad! Is that you?"
"No, it's me." Stark said.
"What are you doing here?"
"I'm here to save you."
"Well, can you start before they kill us?"
"Sure."

Stark started chasing his brothers around the house. Various times did I hear things fall and glass shatter. Oh well, not my problem. After about 20 minutes they ran out the back door.

"Thanks for coming."
"Don't thank me, they'll be back later."

Later Stark and I went back to the alley to find his brothers. At first we didn't see anyone. Then his brothers and some other vampires emerged from the shadows.

Suddenly a vampire lunged at Stark and ripped his throat right open. Stark was dead within seconds.

I screamed in horror. I was to Starks lifeless body and fell to my knees. I cried until I had no tears left to cry.

When I looked up Jagger was standing over me. A wicked grin on his face. He reached for my throat.

Then everything went black.

Now 15 have died in the alleyway. Will you be next?
