Chapter 21: Murder

We caught up with Dewi, who had Elvira chained up to a tree. Ironically, it was the same odd shaped tree that I came across before meeting the Angels. We were so close to Shamain that I felt more energy surging through my veins. Of course, it wasn't helping my case. I was becoming more and more bloodthirsty.

"Where was she?" Ikatora asked, her voice cold as ice.

"She's been following Sakari," Dewi answered. "Hiyana was only in her way."

"So Sakari was her prey?" Ikatora said. Dewi nodded.

I growled. "Sakari was a great person. The only human to be kind to me."

"Then you take her," Ikatora told me.

"To do what?" I inquired. Elvira, who had been struggling to free herself from the chains, suddenly gasped and looked frightened.

"Kill her. She is the victim now," said Dewi, removing the chains. Elvira tried to make an escape but found herself not being able to move. I lifted her from her neck collar, letting her body squirm for a little while. For some reason, I enjoyed watching her struggle in pain.

"Stop toying with the prey and just do it," Ikatora mumbled.

"Oh, let her have some fun. It's her first vampire kill," Dewi grinned.

"And ye're actually approving her?" Zaira asked.

"Well, neither of us have liked Elvira," Ikatora answered.

"Ye're sadistic. All of ye."

I ignored her, continuing my game with the vampire.

"Release me," Elvira demanded.

"Why? When you murdered two humans."

"I was hungry."

"That's bull shit! Vampires can sense impurity in humans so you could have killed a corrupted human if you were hungry!" I snapped. "Instead, you went after innocence."

She made no response to this, knowing that I was right.

"Anything else you want to say?" I asked. She shook her head. My nails grew into long, sharp claws and I thrust my right hand through her chest. She screamed in agony until I finally ripped out her heart and permanently silenced her. The violet heart in my hand was still pumping, gradually coming to a stop.

"Now what?" Sachiel asked.

"Freeze the blood, Sachiel. Sakari and Hiyana will need to feed when they wake," Ikatora replied. Sachiel bobbed her head, clearly not in the mood to disagree.

"Don't touch the body though. Just take enough blood that will meet their needs," I said.

"Why? Do you have a plan?" Dewi asked me. I grinned, an idea started to formulate in my mind. Zaira looked at me and frowned.

"Why is it that Ah think Ah'm not going to like this?"

"Dewi, lets make a visit. After all, Obitus will want this heart back," I said and this time, it was I who led them into the night.

XXXXXXXXX

Suntiger: And I'm done! With this one anyways… the sequel will be out sooner than you think so hang in there! Obitus, by the way, is Ikatora's father.
