I am glad that you walked into my home on such a wonderful evening.
Please do not be frightened of me or of what you read. Sit down and
make your self comfortable and Lets get one thing straight though, I
am not the Devil nor do I worship him/her. I am Immortal and have been
since before my 20th birthday three years ago. I guess you are wondering
how it all happened? Well I shall tell you about the night I was born
into darkness. But first the reason I am telling you is because I can
not keep it a secret anymore I have been DIEING to tell someone and this
is how I plan to do it. I know it is going to be hard to convince you of
what I am and you my not believe in Vampires or immortals but I will tell
you and you can decide for your self what you want to believe..........
It was the year 1995, I was living in Pennsylvania at that time with my
boyfriend who we will call Gary. It was Febuary 11th, three months before
my birthday and I was still a nieve immature child. I had graduated two
years prier to this and was still learning to cop with life. My man and
I lived in a small town called Newkennsington which is about half an hour
away from Pittsburg PA. Now I did not lust after vampires or believed
that they existed so I don't want you to think that I made this up to get
attention. But of course I use to be mortal just like you once and if
some one came up to me and said they were a vampire I would have laughed in
there face and told them to get a life. So I do not blame you if you laugh
at me and walk away, but I have a short temper and love to prove myself to
those who moke me and laugh at what I am. So beware of what you say.
The day that was destined to be my last as a mortal was Febuary 11th. A
cold day in PA for there was snow piles left on the ground from a storm
the previous week. The sky was gray and cloudy and I do not remember the
sun much at all that day. I went to work at the gas station like any
ordanary morning, walking as always up the street and across the
intersection to the store. The customers come and went, some regualers
and some not. I had been working there for a couple months with the same
people, but that day was different. We recieved a new worker, a woman,
in the place of a pregnant women who had put in her two week notice. The
new girl was very pretty with hair of red curls and eyes of bright blue.
She had a soft pale face and she was about 5'4 in hieght. She had a country
girls accent when she spoke yet it wasn't country at all. Her and I hit it
off right away that day and yet I'm not sure why. Perhaps it was her carefree
nature that I liked so much but either way I wond up going home with her
after work to get to know her alittle better.
Her name was Mary.... Sorry I'm drawing a blank for I can't remember her
last name. It was a long one, anyway when I remember I'll put it in here.
Well I walked home with her that evening after work, it was about 6 o'clock
in the evening when we got off. She lived a couple of blocks from the gas
station in the opposite direction from me. We walked the cold streets of
Newken for five blocks then headed uphill. The day was getting darker and
colder as we walked almost in silence barely saing a word. We walked fast
so that we could keep warm pulling our coats around us. I was thinking of
Gary while walking and wondering if he would mind me not comeing home right
away after work. My thoughts left my mind when Mary turned to me and said
"We're here!" We turned off the road we were on and headed down a small ally
way to the first house we came to. She lead me through her drive way and back
yard until we climbed the back porch to the door. I looked at the white washed
house for a minute admirering it for the first time. It was a big house that
rested inbetween two other big houses. She unlocked the door and it opened
with a creek and shut with a loud bang. It was a screen door with a heavy
bolted oak door inside. She shut and locked the inside oak door as I looked
around her huge kitchen. A white wood table set for foor sat just inside the
kitchen door, and dark wood cabinets linded the far wall. There was an opening
to the living room to the right of the kitchen were Mary was now headed.
Her house was beautifully decorated with old nicknaks and furniture. I
admirered her for her taste and talent for decoration.
We sat on her fluffy basge couch and began talking about her life. she first
told me that she grew up on her fathers farm which was about an hour from
where we were. Her story told of old times but I did not realize just how
old they were for I did not yet know that she was a 140 year old vampiress.
I was confussed by the things she described but thought that maybe it was
just an old farm that was not yet modefied to suite the years now. But after
her story of her family and her child hood she then told me how she became a
vampiress.
Now at first when she told me she was a vampire I thought she was kidding and
I laughed. But she did not laugh with me she proceeded to tell me that she
was 25 years old when her maker came to her late on night after she got into
a fight with her husband. I thought this women must be nuts and wondered why
I was there. I was thinking I should leave but her story was so interestion
and she sounded so sincere about what she said. There was something in the
way she told her tale that even I who did not believe in such things believed
her.
She told me that she was walking her farm back in July of 1858 on a warm
summer night after fighting with her husband. She had been crying and miserable
because the farm was not making enough money for them to servive and he was
planing on selling the property. Mary beged him not to sell for the farm would
do fine in the future. Her husband would not hear anything she had to say
and so they fought and after hours of trying to convince Henry she gave up
and ran out of the house. She told me of how she was standing on the old hill
side where her father had passed away from choping wood. He had a heart attack
and fell on the axe that he was using. She said she was sitting on the grass
looking out at the star filled sky and the bright almost full moon when a
man appeared infront of her almost out of no where. At first she thought
she was seeing her fathers goast but this man was young, younger then when
her father died. No this man was healthy and strong about her age with long
brown hair and brite green eyes that you could see far away. Almost as
though the moon was captured in them. Thats how she discribe it too me.
He walked to her side and sat gently beside her, looked into her eyes and
asked why she was so upset. She explained to him what was troubling her and
he embraced her with a kiss. She was unaware of what had happened until it
was over. She was dieing she told me. This man had taken her blood and now
she lay drained and unsure of what was about to happen. She told me that she
had passed out for a while and did not know how long it had been before she
awoke to find the same man hoovering over her. "Those eyes!" she said to me
almost as though she could see them at that very moment. I was unsure of
what to think not sure if I should run or stay. She was comforting to listen
to so I stay to hear the rest of her story but she stoped and did not go on
that evening about the man on the hill. Instead she asked me something that
I was not ready for. She asked in a sothing voice. " Would you like to see
for your self what the man did after that?" Now I'm not sure why I said yes
nor do I regret saying yes but at that moment I was wondering if she was
telling me the truth or lieing to me. So I believe that I said yes because
I wanted to know the truth.
How can I explain what happened to me... It was like nothing I had experienced
before. She sat closer then before as she smiled a tender reinsuring smile.
Her eyes were brite like the eyes of the man only blue. Thats when I noticed
that her smile was a bit different then mine or yours. She had fangs, small
but yet noticeable. I backed away with a start when I saw her teeth and fear
became apart of my life at that very moment. I began to shake yet I could
not move from where I sat. She said something to me then but I dont think
I heard her but I think she said something like "Don't be afraid little one
It will only hurt for a minute then you will feel pain no more!"
She sank her teeth into the lower part of my neck and pain is exactly what
I felt. I tried to jerk her back but she had a grip on me stronger then a
mans. I cried out and tears began to fall from my eyes. I was scared and did
not know what was happening to me. I became weak as time past and then my
head throbed with pain and began spinning. I got dizzy and saw dots of black
in my eyes then I believe I pasted out layed unconceince on her couch. Thoughts
invaded my mind and I thought I had died that she lied to me only to drink
my blood like a sick person in a cult might do to please there god. I was
frightened and wondered if this is what death was like, awake yet not awake,
aware yet not aware.
Then I awoke to the sound of her sweat voice telling me to drink from her
arm. I sat up dazed and placed my mouth around the cut on her arm almost as
though it were natural. Like a kitten to its mother when first born it just
knows automaticly to suck at the mothers nipples. I drank and drank until
I felt warm again all over. She pulled her arm away when I had enough and
sat watching me. I felt weak yet strong but I was not able to move. I asked
her what happened to me and she told me that she drank my blood then feed
me her blood. So I asked what was going to happen to me and she told me
that my body was going to change slowly at first then faster until my mortal
body was no more but would become immortal along with my soul. At first I
could not immagine what she meant or if that was indeed what would happen.
But then I felt pain with in. It started with my heart. It throbed and beat
fast and faster as though it was fighting to live. I squarmed side to side
as she watched me die. My body began to throbe all over, I felt like my eyes
would pop out,and my head would explode.
Then I dont remember any thing until I opened my eyes and took a deep breath
like it was my first. Mary was still sitting in the chair beside me and
smiled as I awoke, reborn as a vampiress.
