Scarlett: The Crimson Bride CHAP. FIFTEEN—MIRAGES.
『.*+ •ᴄʜᴀᴘ. ꜰɪꜰᴛᴇᴇɴ + •*.』 ~FRIDAY NIGHT BACK HOME, SCARLETT STOOD RIGHT IN FRONT OF HER BATHROOM MIRROR, opening her mouth wide. She hasn't had fangs sharpening out today. And no strange vanilla cravings either. She expected them to peek out, yet nothing happened. Her injuries were gone too, as if she was never got pricked by her fangs. Her skin was a colour filter paler than before now, almost a creamy tone. She was beginning to think she was going out of her mind. 'This doesn't make any sense. Why is this happening to me?' Scarlett didn't know what to think of it. But how was she turning into a Vampire, she wasn't bit and...there's no sign of anything. The only thing was to think she was imagining the whole thing, considering Vampires don't exist. That could be it. Yeah. It had to! But how could she, and to what Kairos' words said earlier? The same words were looping in her mind. The whole town wasn't all that it seemed. That made Scarlett think otherwise. She wondered if her
Scarlett: The Crimson Bride CHAP. SIXTEEN—TRUTHS.
『.*+ •ᴄʜᴀᴘ.ꜱɪxᴛᴇᴇɴ + •*.』 "YOU SAW...YOUR MOTHER?" Josh sat by Scarlett's bed. She just had a quick meltdown after just having that vision, so he laid her down in her bedroom. The fairy lights up top her bed still lit. She was still shook and weak from thinking about it. Anything that involved her mother was always the most sensitive topic. She has never once met her mother in her whole life. But this time, she believed she felt her, that she was in Aurora's point of view. Joshua was stricken by the new information like a bash to the head. 'So she saw her mother's memories. This could mean only one thing...' "Umm, Scarlett? Can you describe what you saw...in that vision?" He asked softly. Scarlett tightened her hug on one of her pillows, her eyes still watery as the memory kept going on a loop. "I...I was Her. I was Mom." She rasped out before taking a deep breath. "I---she was running in a winter forest. But...she was heavily pregnant, with me. You were there too." "Y-you were
Scarlett: The Crimson Bride CHAP. SEVENTEEN—MORNING TALK.
『.*+ •ᴄʜᴀᴘ. ꜱᴇᴠᴇɴᴛᴇᴇɴ + •*.』 ~SATURDAY, 3 DAYS LEFT... Scarlett woke up to a rather bright weekend morning. It has almost been a week in Pastonville. And after one whole night of emotions, discovering that Vampire genes ran in her DNA all along, and that her mother and uncle were once humans from the 15th century, Scarlett somewhat felt a sense of...relief. Oddly. It wasn't a feeling she should feel in the shit she's going through right now. She's already felt fear, shock, anger, sadness, and but mostly bewilderment - now, she didn't have those feelings anymore. She felt... a little numb. The clouds outside her bedroom window continued to plague the skies but the sun's rays were still strong. But then Scarlett realised; there were still holes of her origins that were felt to be covered. She still doesn't clearly know who Jagger is or why he wants her. There's a whole lot that she doesn't know about herself, or the world that she never noticed. 'I wonder what I can do now that I'
Scarlett: The Crimson Bride CHAP. EIGHTEEN—METEOR SHOWER.
『.*+ •ᴄʜᴀᴘ. ᴇɪɢʜᴛᴇᴇɴ + •*.』 ~LATER THAT NIGHT; It was the meteor shower night with Scarlett, Shawn, Kairos, and the geeks. "Wow, the stars are brighter this time around." Sitting on a dry log - closer to the grey sandy shores of the lake was Maddie, wearing a large woolen sweater than matched her frizzy maroon red hair. "It's like I can touch the heavens..." she consciously whispered as she looked up at the clear skies, holding out to the night sky with her petite fingers as if they were in her reach. "They're alright, I guess." Scarlett boredly shrugged beside her, watching the same view of the cosmic sky. While still contemplating the thought, she didn't know whether she should say something. She was still thinking about her Vampirism, afraid she might have a sudden thirst. And her friends could be in imminent danger. Her uncle said it was fine and that her thirst wasn't predicted to be any time later. He said Gadiel and the others will be nearby in case something happens - lik
Scarlett: The Crimson Bride CHAP. NINETEEN—AN ALPHA WITH A SUDDEN CONSCIOUS.
『.*+ •ᴄʜᴀᴘ. ɴɪɴᴇᴛᴇᴇɴ + •*.』 ALL KAYLEY SAW WAS DARKNESS. She couldn't see anything beyond the point of her own frozen pale hands. The young sorority leader felt cold and barren. She still wore her skimpy short dress from two days ago. Her neck was extremely sore, poked with pricked holes and dried blood. Oftentimes, very itchy. It's only been over 12 hours since Zayne last fed on her red body fluids. Kayley had never felt this sort of suffering before. He left her lying flat on a wooden floorboard of a cabin he found and took refuge in, struggling to move and stricken with bloodloss and neck pain. Her back was against the empty wooden cupboards of a kitchen that picked up perhaps years' worth of dust and cobwebs. Her legs were tainted in dirt, splinters, and blood. Zayne had never done anything intimate nor never once violated Kayley, she was just his snack that he decided to keep after almost being caught by Werewolves the other night. That's all. A thin blanket was left to her
Scarlett: The Crimson Bride CHAP. TWENTY—THE HALFLINGS.
『.*+ •ᴄʜᴀᴘ. ᴛᴡᴇɴᴛʏ + •*.』 ~MEANWHILE... Scarlett and Shawn both stood completely silent in front of Kairos Finnegan, her rare-looking eyes shined as bright as two suns whilst staring at the roaring campfire. "Don't even try to deny it. Trust me I know." Scarlett was shattered with astonishment. Her heart rate dropped but not by much, this whole 'Mythical Beings existing amongst humans' thing still had that bit of a screeching turn-table effect on her. But then again, her uncle did inform her that the Mythics populous, mostly the Dark Mythics, still roam the world. Werewolves, Serpentine, Minotaurs, Mermaids, Goblins, and even Ghosts. However a few existed in an other-worldly dimension - created by Merlin but ruled by the Vampire King himself, or so he illiterated. She didn't ask about that. Scarlett darted her eyes next to her, she saw Shawn's happy-go-lucky aura quickly turn tense. His head cautiously turned back at Dorian, Zack, and Maddie, who were still preoccupied with the te
Scarlett: The Crimson Bride CHAP. TWENTY ONE—AMBUSH.
『.*+ •ᴄʜᴀᴘ. ᴛᴡᴇɴᴛʏ ᴏɴᴇ+ •*.』JOSHUA LOVED WATCHING COOKING CHANNELS ON A QUIET SATURDAY NIGHT.It wasn't particularly his favorite hobby but he enjoyed the cuisines the 21st century has so far offered. Pizza however still rivaling all things. One of the perks of being a 300-year-old Vampire, he imagined.He followed the human's instructions on the television screen precisely, while whipping another culinary masterpiece. "Too easy." He proudly scoffed. If he wasn't a guy that builds houses for a living, he would've taken off as a hot shot sue-chef. Even Scarlett would agree.He was very comfortable with her and her friends by the lakeside during their meteor shower party. And according to Gadiel and the Betas, no Alpha Vampires were spotted or sensed in the area. In fact, they were none sighted the day before yesterday. Which Joshua had to admit, was a really strange pattern.'What is Jagger up to?' He thought. Josh knew the Vampire King wouldn't regroup his disciples just like that. Th
Scarlett: The Crimson Bride CHAP. TWENTY TWO—IGNITE THE DEMON FROM WITHIN.
『.*+ •ᴄʜᴀᴘ. ᴛᴡᴇɴᴛʏ ᴛᴡᴏ + •*.』 "THE CRIMSON...BRIDE?" "Scarlett...?" No other words came out of the two Halflings as they were both stupefied with jolting shock. Scarlett stared at both of their expressions, both in mute horror. Especially Shawn. She didn't really like that look of surprise on his face. Was he disgusted? Repulsed? Did he hate her now? There could be a million things running through his mind right now. The secret was out, the cat out of the bag. Scarlett was a Vampire, his kind's worst foe. And Shawn just said he loathed them to the depths of his core, with no exceptions. Scarlett wasn't originally the one to care about what people think about her, she's been scorned at for her abnormal features since childhood. That was back in El Paso. But now there's Shawn. Her heart started to beat every time she said his name out loud or in her head. He was the first outsider to ever make her smile, to give her reason to laugh. He was sweet and caring. She could sense the kind
