Chapter 16: Bloody Encounter (3)

On the way to the house, my carriage suddenly stopped. Lora woke up and we peeked at the window. A lady with a bloody white dress appeared in front of our carriage, the coachman and my knights came and approached the lady but the coachman was grabbed by the shoulder and she bit him…

"Ahh!" The two of us were startled, what the heck was that!

"Lora what is that?!" I asked hysterically, my heart was racing…

"Milady, I heard at the market… rumor is that there is a vampire attacking at night these past few days." She answered in panic. "I think it's her, what should we do milady?" Lora asked, trembling.

'V-Vampire?! Where the heck did it come from?! There are no vampires in the story… Whaaaa! Author, what are you doing, you didn't include information about vampires!'

What should I do? What should I do?! Amitabha… Bathala… Buddha… Zeus… Jesus… Allah! Answer me!

Then I heard the clashes and groans outside. It's already dark and the only light was from the not-so-bright streetlights. Think Tania! You have liked reading since you were a child, you're supposed to know what to do in this situation!

[Memories came rushing....

"What? Vampire can be killed with silver? How can it be?" Tania asked her teacher.

"Thrust the Vampire's heart with silver if you had the chance. But if you don't then you better run as fast as you can leaving everyone behind, you should keep that in mind. Another weakness is holy water and sunlight. Then let's move on to wolves…" the teacher explained…]

"Thank you… real one, amitabha, bathala, buddha, Zeus, Jesus, and Allah ! ACCEPT!" I stood up and opened the box of the knife I bought from the Armory, I can use it!

"W-what are you going to do, milady? Please tell me you're not-"

I smiled widely at her and gently traced the sharp blade of the knife.

"Stay here with him. I go and defeat that girl, okay?! How dare she block my way?" I frowned and jumped out of the carriage. Bruce, watch me... I'll use your gift.

"Milady!" Lora yelled to stop me, but I closed the door immediately before she follows

Efren, Drio and Selek are wounded but fortunately they aren't bitten, their wound was from the sharp claw of the vampire. Looking at her carefully, her eyes are red, pale skin, two long and sharp fangs and long sharp claws. And she moves in a flash but preoccupied by fighting my knights, Gosh… How should I kill her?

"Character Status" I said looking at the vampire lady. She's alive so I guess even other species/creatures also had character status windows.

'Argh… there's so many question marks! Tch!'

She hasn't noticed me yet so I wandered my eyes and spotted a short and dark passage ending behind her. Knowing modern fictional vampires, they have exceptional hearing, smelling ability and clear vision. I went to the passage and covered the smell with dirty water from the passage… ewwww! Yuck! Germs! Itchy! It stinks! My OCD is attacking but… Vampire attacks are worse. Bear with it a little longer, Randall-Tania.

While sneaking from the passage, I fought myself from screaming, cussing and vomiting… and a rabbit surprised me that I almost gave myself a heart attack. I captured that rabbit in annoyance but I came to realize.

'Mr. Rabbit, pay for surprising me, you'll be my decoy.'

As I go on, I reached the end of the passage- this passage is for small animals like rabbit, fox or racoons, but I managed to fit in. For the sake of killing that vampire, I sacrificed too much. I hid behind the tree near the Vampire, and remained unnoticed. When I peeked, Drio saw me and got surprised, I managed to shut him up by glaring, and ordered him to keep on occupying the Vampire's attention by sign language- though he didn't understand it, he still got what I meant. My radar beeped, I knew she noticed Drio's reaction and looked behind her where the tree I was hiding at. The vampire scratch Selek's sword and kicked him away and approach the tree. Shit. I close my eyes tightly…

I released the rabbit, who escaped away… good job, mr. rabbit!

They saw the rabbit come out from behind the tree, the vampire thought it was just Drio's acting to distract her from fighting… Efren suddenly jumped with his sword behind her and she ducked thrusting the tree instead.

"Nice try hahaha!" She said and held Efren's neck and slowly lifted him, Drio and Selek stopped attacking and talked with the Vampire to buy me some time.

"Why are you doing this?" Selek's voice was angry. I slowly come out of my hiding place without letting any sound even my breath is controlled.

"Nothing, why not try asking yourself why you're eating? Enough talk! I'll suck your blood dry!" She suddenly pulled Efren close and held his head out of the way to his neck, when she was about to bite him…

"Sorry but none of us volunteered to be your food." I arrogantly said when I thrust her heart from her back with my silver knife.

She let go of Efren, and slowly turned to me…

"H-how…?" She asked and saw how I looked, damp hair, dirty dress and muddy body. "Ha- hahaha… What a brilliant, Lady. Y-you hide yourself well…" And she vanished like dust, leaving the knife behind.

Ahhh… I-I killed her. I-I killed someone… Shit! Aside from her red eyes and sharp claw, the rest looked human! I killed her… B-but I did it only to save my knights… R-right!

"Milady!" Efren, Drio and Selek ran to me when I fell on my knees. I look at my shaking hands, there's no blood… my imagination got over me and I'm seeing bloody hands. I thought I prepared my mind well enough but…

"I killed her… I'm a murderer…" I repeated out loud and before that very moment, I felt my heartbeat in excitement to kill… *gulp* Did I really like that feeling? …Psychopath.

No! No! No! I'm not! I'm not!

"Milady, you saved us." Efren remarked. And it brought me back to reality.

"I did it to save… haha t-that's right, so I'm not a murderer, a-am I?" My lips trembled and I started to cry in frustration. Even if she's a vampire… she was so human, she even looked more human than a monster…

"You are not, milady. You are our savior and we are thankful to you." The three of them kneel before me, "We promise from this day onwards, we will give our lives for your sake and will always protect you from any danger, Lady Tania Roa Cavelier. We swear our oath as a knight."

I was stunned. Seeing them like this made my heart feel at ease…
