Debra arrived home, she lived in an old apartment with her mother, younger brother and step father as soon as she arrived, she heard her mother in the room living room with her step father.
" Mother "
Debra calls out with a quiet tone.
" It's about time you got home, did you buy the pack of cigarettes? "
Debra's mother ask, Debra silent nod and took it out and gave it to her mother she grabbed it out of her hand and took a look at.
" Did the good for nothing buy the right one? "
Ask the stepfather .
" Yeah it's the right one "
Debra walked to the microwave and looked into it, it was empty.
" Sorry but there's no food left, your bother was hungry and he ate it "
Debra turned to her brother who was sitting with his father. The little boy make a face of mockery at her. Debra silently went to her room hungry.She sat on her bed and hugged her knees.
( Why me ? Why do i have to live like this?)
She ask herself
She then took up a knife to slit her wrist.
" This is a whole world is hell "
Suddenly her step father came in as passed by her room and saw her
" Damn bitch ! are you about to kill yourself?! "
He grabbed the hand holding the knife and gave her an uppercut in her stomach. She dropped the knife and fall to her knees.
" What's going on?! "
Debra's mother came in.
" This bitch was about to kill herself ! "
The man shout.
" What ?! "
Debra's mother started beating her.
" Do you know how much money for burial ? you father was trash and your garbage, are you trying to tarnish my name than it already is? "
Debra was constantly beaten by her mother. She didn't do anything but took be beating quietly.
" Now listen "
Said her stepfather as he grabbed her face.
" that hair pin you receive from your friend was work over 500 dollars, meaning your friend has money, I want you to scam her, got that ! "
He said
" You better get that money or else "
The three left the room leaving Debra on the floor. She remembered something that Roselina said to her, She keeps remember roselina's smile.
" I want to see you "
Debra said as she hugs her knees and think about roselina all night long.The next day came regina stand in front of the school in a jeans shorts and tank top. She looked at her watch that said 10:10 and started to get impatient.
" She's late "
Regina said.
" Are you waiting for roselina has well? "
" Waaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh !"
Regina was started to see Debra standing behind her like a spooky ghost. Debra was wearing a green long sleeve shirt and a grey frock .
" You startled me, who are you? "
" Debra, we're in the same class? "
" Really ? I haven't seen you before, Oh here's roselina "
Suddenly the black and gold Rolls Royce carrying roselina parked before regina and Debra Roselina came out in a black sleeveless sweater and jeans shorts and black shirt.
" Your late "
Regina said.
" I'm sorry, I couldn't figure what to wear "
Roselina turned her head to Debra and smile
" Oh, you made it as well Debra "
Roselina greet her and Debra nods.
The vision over roselinas eyes became inverted color as her looked at Debra's body. She saw scars on Debra's body which she hides with her sleeves . Roselina smile turned into a frown.
" Let's go "
Regina got in the car while Debra stood outside.
" Why are you standing there? "
Roselina ask.
" I'm afraid, I'll get the seat dirty "
Debra said.
Roselina giggled and pat her head.
" It's okay, I won't bite, remember what I said, If you serve me you don't have to worry about these things. Especially an abusive stepfather and mother "
Roselina said.
" How did you know ? "
" I never have been to school before but I'm not stupid, the moment I saw that hairpin missing and that bruise on your hand..i know everything "
Roselina fold my arms.
" I want you to have the best day today, so come "
She grabbed Debra's hand and pulled her to the car.
( Her hand it's so soft and gentle..just like fathers )
Debra though to herself, she got in the back beside regina while roselina got in front.
.......
We drove to my favorites pastry shop. There was a few customers inside but plenty of seat. We took a seat in the corner close to the window
" Miss Valentine, it's good to see you again"
Said the waiter as she came over to us.
" I'll take the chocolate cake "
" Right and your friends "
" I'll take the strawberry "
Said regina.
" What about you young lady? "
The waiter ask Debra.
" Go on, order anything you like "
I said. she nods and point at the chocolate shortcake like mine.
" Alright "
Soon the waitress came back with our cakes.
" Bon Appetite "
I said
Debra looked at the food on her plate and took a bite. She gobbled it down in an instant like she hasn't eaten in months. She must have been very hungry.
" Can...I have more ? "
She ask. She so adorable.
" Sure waiter "
After eating cake, we stopped by the movies to watch a vampire movie. I took a sip of cola as we watched the movie silent. Debra seem to be really engrossed in it.
" You seem to like vampires "
I ask.
" Yes "
" What do you like about them? "
" I don't.. Really know "
She replied.
Suddenly my right eye act up and I covered it.
" Is something wrong? "
Regina ask.
" I'm fine, I'm just going to the bathroom "
I took up went to the bathroom. I removed my hand and looked as it glowed silver. Suddenly I had a vision flash before my eyes. After leaving this movie as we got in the car and drives off, it will explode. I will be unscathed but Regina and Debra will ulimately die. The vision ended and my right eye turned crimson again.
" Viper "
" Yes "
She appeared in the bathroom out of the shadow.
" Someone is planting a bomb on our car, Find out who is and capture them "
" As you wish? "
She vanished again.
" I can't keep this up, I have to learn to control this eye "
I said. Soon Debra came in the bathroom, she walked up to me.
" Are...You alright? "
She ask with a quiet tone.
" I'm fine "
" Do you need blood? "
Hearing that questions shocked me. I turned my gaze to her with murderous intent and then put on a fake face.
" Of course I don't need blood, I'm not anemic know "
" I mean as a Vampire "
My murderous and defensive instinct kicked in and I hold my scythe to her neck.
" How the hell did you find out? "
I ask. She don't seem to be fazed that I'm holding a scythe to her throat.
" I overheard you taking with that woman must now "
Wait, shes been there, I was too busy think about my precognition that I didn't think about my surroundings. That was very careless roselina, Very careless.
Hold on ?
I narrowed my eyes as I look at her. Her bloodline, don't tell me is a far descendant of Mary. Seeing this I sigh and stepped back.
" You know to much, I'll have to erase your memory "
As I raised my hand to her head she took a step back and tremble with fear.
" Please, don't "
She whisper.
" Humans can't be trusted with secret,especially with vampires, if people find out you'll be branded as a traitor of the Human race.... This for for... huh? "
I stopped speaking as saw a tear drop on her hand.
" I don't want to forget, this day is precious to me, so I don't want to forget "
Damn, she really has it rough. It would be rude of me to erase the one time she felt happiness. I put away my scythe and walked up to her.
" Don't worry, I won't take your memories from you "
I said.
" My offer still stands, if you join me, I'll bring you happiness to your life, you will never feel sad again "
I hold out my hand.
She looked at my hands through the gaps in her bangs and slowly hold out her hand to mine.
" You promise "
" I always keep my words "
" okay "
She placed her hands on mine. My hand glowed and her body started to glow, her color started to appear again.
" What's going on? "
" A little gift "
I said.
Debra looked at the mirror and moved her air, her skin complexion returned back to normal.
" Your no longer weak and ugly, you've now become beautiful and strong ,you're my subordinates and you'll be by my side from now on "
I said.
" Okay, I'll work for you "
She looked in the palm of her hand where my crest was.
" Does this means I've become a vampire ?"
I giggled to that question.
" your still human, your just a bit immortal "
I said.
" Now let's go, I'm curious to see what the future hold for you "
" Right "
We hold hands and walked back to Regina who was waiting for us.
" Oh guys, Roselina, my sister woke, can you drop me by the hospital ? "
Regina ask.
" Sure no problem "
We returned to the car, I looked up to the top of the building where viper was, she was holding the head of the man who was going to plan the bomb and crushed head like a grape. She looks at me for a while before she mistify herself and vanished. I smile with contentment and we drove to the hospital to meet Regina's sister
" Sister "
Regina hugged her sister with tears in her eyes. Such a touchy moment.
" Who is that? "
The little girl ask as she looked at me.
" This is Regina friend, she's also the one who payed for you treatment "
Regina mother said.
" thank you Miss "
I walked up to the little girl and gave her a stuffed pikachu.
" Happy recovery "
I said.
" Thanks, wow your so pretty, just like an angel "
She said.
I giggled when I heard this, this is what Kelly said to be the first time we met.
" Your compliment is the first I received with open arms "
I rubbed her head, suddenly Debra's phone rang. I look at her and she started to shake with fear from some reason.
" It's mom "
My mood instantly dampened.
It's time to end this
