Chapter 2: Rainy Days
Haven---
The dark is deep, frigid and wet. Little white spots appear and then swallow back up in the black depth of the night.
Well, that's how it seems in...wherever I am. Am I going to Heaven or what? I can't just be stuck here forever in this cold place. It so depressing and I can't help my mood drop along with is.
Then it's even wetter, and I can feel the ice fall down my bo-
"PLAH!!!!!!!!" I spat, shooting out of my dark dream and into reality....Reality? Wasn't I murdered? Isn't my body blank and deserted of my organs?
"Good day," came a booming voice.
My head whipped to the side to see a young man standing behind the chair near a window. Where am I? Who is he? Why am I still alive?
"Umm, I thought I was -"
"Deceased? Unlikely. Welcome to Highness, a large castle in the land of southern Dragomir." He means like a fairytale? Mythical, evil creatures and fairies and - "but I must warn you Ms. Davis, this is not a land of pixies and doodleberries. You are not exactly hear to be prancing and skipping around. You are our sovereign."
His green eyes crinkled and his mouth made a weird smile, as if waiting for a reaction. Does he mean I, like, I'm a Queen? ...A QUEEN?!
"Wait...Wait listen you have the wrong thing going on. I'm just a nerdy girl who gets picked on in high school. I'm no queen material."
"We know. And I must say, this is not my favorite job in the world - you know listening to you bitch about your problems." Excuse me? "But I'm sure the King would love to speak to you. I'm just a personal assistant."
"Listen up buddy, I-"
"Sir Pandee, you're dismissed," a deep voice came from the door as it opened.
Again, walked in a young man, but this time with a scrawny woman. She was bony and had dark circles under her eyes. Her hair was in gray dreads, and many teeth were missing from her mouth.
I felt a sharp pain course it's way through my mouth and I couldn't help but scream. In a flash, I was feeding off of the scrawny girl but I couldn't stop myself from the disgusting, metal ting pass through my tongue and into my stomach. It was satisfying me though.
"Enough."
When the young man, NOT Sir Pandee, pulled me away from the girl I noticed my fingernails were longer then usual.
"What the -"
"You are more beautiful even as a vampire. Don't You think so Pandee?"
"Oh yes."
Ass hole. Wasn't he just bitching about how my com-...VAMPIRE. Oh but I am. There's no doubt about it. My fangs popped out like it was the thing to do, and I'm more beautiful? Disastrous. I couldn't help but to burst out crying. My effort into the tears wasn't much, because all I could do was weep but no water would run down my impeccable, sculpted face.
A loud side, came from Sir Pandee, as he left the room and the handsome young man came and sat next to me.
"Don't wail! I'm here to give you a better life, sweaty!" he said in a graceful voice.
I stopped my whining and peered up to meet the white porcelain face of my savior.
"What do you mean?"
He took a deep breath, and rubbed my back to calm me down. Where was this going? I never believed in reincarnation anyway.
"Your life has been nothing but a bitch since you were little," he began. "People like us look over you. Angels look over others to, but you deserve a second chance to relive your life. Don't you think?"
I shrugged.
He walked over to the dresser next to the bed and took out a newspaper and put it in my lap.
HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT FOUND DEAD.
I read the paragraph and begged my nervous system not to react to my sadness. The date looked so primitive.
"What's today's date?"
"September 5, 2010."
I gasped. "I've been dead for a year?"
What has everyone thought? I bet my killer is relieved. Do they even miss me? What about the mathletes...and the debating club?
"Yes, but your not dead anymore. Your better then dead...your immortal. Plus, you can run super fast, and life things ten times the weight of the world. It's something we all enjoy hun."
"So what are you saying? You just gave me an eternal life because of my past life?"
"Today is your day to make a better impression. A better view of yourself. To let everyone thrill on your survival, and get over themselves. To let them try to solve the mystery of your living."
"I can't just go back and act like I never died!"
"Oh but you can. And you will."
~~~~~
So I don't get this. Benjamin, the name of the young man, had given me this car. I mean, of course I have my driver's license and stuff but I'm not completely familiar with a stick shift.
"Hunny, you're going to drive it whether you like it or not. It's a fuckin' Bugatti."
So what? I don't understand the important, but it's a cool looking car.
"Follow the road to the main highway and it should take you to the humans. Remember this is Dragomir, not Illinois sweety," he says. "You'll enter the main highway and eventually you'll be taken through to Earth. You'll arrive at your school in no time.
This is your big shot girly. And remember I have someone there, to watch over you, incase of any screw-ups. Got me?"
I nodded in confidence.
I will admit, I was sexy like hell. But can I act the part or is it going to be a vivid façade?
"Off you go hunny."
But when I start to drive the car, and get on the main highway something comes over me. I realize my killer is there, and hasn't been caught. What will he do? What will happen? And what in HELL will come over me?
