Once Bitten Chapter 4— The Photograph
I continued to leap from roof to roof, building to building, wall to wall, it felt like I could see the whole world from a distance; it was fascinating to me and for a moment I could forget what I was, and when I knew I was far away from my hometown— from the police men, I rested on the tallest building I could find— like a bird on a tree. I stood there watching, waiting and listening. I could hear everything, every sound, every noise, every person, it was loud, too loud; deafening even. I covered my ears with my palms but that didn't seem to solve anything, maybe I had to find a quieter place, away from the city.But where could I go? I hadn't travelled much even though I was a 30 year old man. I never really felt the need for me to leave Baton Rouge, to leave Elias and Delia, to leave my craftsmanship. I even hoped I would start a family of mine in the city, we could live happily in my parents house... I didn't know where to run to, I decided within me to stay on the roof top for the

I decided to live like an outcast— out of sight, I didn’t speak to anyone except I really needed to. I went over to my house that night but I knew I couldn’t stay there anymore because the police and other nosy people who must want me dead by now would soon come knocking on my door— people always fear what they can’t understand and now I’m something they can’t understand, I’m a monster! I wasn’t scared that they would hurt me but rather I was scared that I... would hurt them, I’d tear them apart and drain them of their blood, I knew what I was capable of but I was no killer, I couldn’t forgive myself if I killed another innocent person. I packed up a few important things from my apartment, like a photo of me and my parents together, as well as a photo of Elias, Delia and I. I didn’t know what else to take along, I thought of food but deep down I knew I wouldn’t eat them; because whenever I was hungry food wasn’t anywhere near my thoughts in that moment. It was more like a thirst a

My eyes opened up wide staring at the ceiling, instantly I felt different. But how? I knew I died, I felt my heart give out, how is it even possible that I’m alive? I arose on the bed with a firm movement, I felt lighter like I had no single weight on me. I studied the room but no one was in there with me. I was alive, but at thesame time I wasn’t! There was no sound of my heart beating inside my chest. In a swift sudden motion I climbed down the bed where I once laid, it was definitely inhuman to me. I knew something was different about me. I took a step and the next thing I was standing behind the door in the room, I looked back at where I was standing before, it was a distance I would normally cover with twelve to sixteen steps, but I covered it within a flash! I felt like I had gone against the wind. I looked out the door through the little transparent space on the door and I saw Elias standing with a doctor, though they were far away from where I was I could hear their words cl

I was bleeding out on the ground that night, I can still remember it vividly. Elias rushed down to where I was lying. I thought I would be dead by now, but I guess Death is as fast as they say it is. I couldn’t move, I felt my body cool down a bit from the pain but my heart kept beating wildly like never before. My eyes were wide open, finally Elias was by my side, boy was I glad to see him! A strange thing began to occur inside me just when I thought it was over. The pain started to grow, only this time it was worse than the bite, there was a fire burning inside me, I began to feel the worst kind of pain I’ve ever felt in all my thirty years of living. It was an excruciating pain— like torture! I didn’t know how else to feel or what to do, I just screamed; it was an outburst of emotion that I never planned for, I couldn’t understand what was happening to me, I didn’t even want to understand what it is, I just wanted the pain gone; but it lingered on. I saw Elias and Delia danglin
