"Blerghh… fuck… fuck…" the vampire cursed softly as he kneeled down and vomited out some of the blood in his stomach.
Lesser vampire would not be able to resist the urge to feed but their bodies could only stand a certain amount of human blood before they would be forced to throw up the excess.
The metallic scent of blood filled the air as the mad vampire stretched out his arms and easily tore off the young man's limbs.
The man's eyes were now a cloudy white colour, and it was clear that he had died of either blood loss or shock a few minutes ago.
A mother holding her child trembled in fear as she was forced to cover her son's eyes using her body as a blindfold.
"Don't look Lily… keep… untying me…" Mary whispered softly as she felt a cold chill run down her spine.
Those dark crimson eyes…
The vampire used his enhanced strength to peel off sections of the young man's skin and began to feast on his flesh.
There was a callous indifference in his actions. He feasted on the young man's body as if it were an ordinary meal.
The sounds of bones cracking and meat tearing echoed through the van and Mary could feel her sister's fingers tremble slightly.
They were monsters…
Monsters.
Mary closed her eyes and immersed herself in the original Mary's memories about how she had managed to escape.
In the original timeline Lily had been the one to free her but there wasn't enough time for her to return the favour.
An accident had occurred about mid way through the journey and the vans had been ambushed by a team of hunters.
In the resulting confusion… the original Mary had managed to escape but her sister had remained captured.
A large reason why she had desperately returned to her father was because at the time she wanted him to help her appeal to the authorities to mount a rescue operation.
What had been the fate of her sister?
The original Mary shuddered to imagine as numerous horrific possibilities haunted her until the day she died at the hands of her father.
But now it would be different.
Mary shifted her legs slightly and let out a light sigh of relief as she realised that her ankles had now been untied.
"Lily keep the pieces of rope around your arms so that it looks like you are still tied up," Mary spoke gently as her eyes opened.
She kept a close eye on the vampire who was now vomiting profusely all over the floor of the van.
The other prisoners were frozen in place and did not even dare to move a single muscle.
And how could she blame them?
Vampire were stronger and faster than a normal human. Even though this one was occupied by a feeding frenzy, the sight of the monster tearing into flesh and bone served as a grim reminder.
In this world… humanity was prey.
They were not the apex predators.
Mary shifted her body slightly and brought her arms closer to her sister. She spared a glance at Lily and saw large beads of sweat running down her brow.
"Mary… I'm scared…" Lily whispered with a small tremor in her voice. Her hands kept moving to untie her sister's hands, but it was clear that she was forcing herself.
"Remember what I told you… I'm scared too but… we are both getting out of her…" Mary whispered with a confidence that she did not feel.
"And when we get out… we are going to send dad directly to jail… he won't be able to hurt us anymore…"
Lily gave her sibling a small smile which Mary returned with a small upwards curve of her lips. The young woman worked hard to free her sister from the rope binding her hands together.
It took a few minutes but eventually Mary was able to move her hands properly.
Good… now their chances of escaping had improved dramatically.
And it was not a moment too soon since the vampire rose up from the ground and coughed violently.
The corpse of the young man was now little more than a shriveled-up husk of bone and dust.
The expression on his sunken face was impossible to see but terror still lurked behind those long dead eyes.
"Damn it! That's two million dollars pissed away!" the vampire muttered furiously to himself as he shook his head and returned to the driver's seat.
The other four vans had gone ahead which meant that a gap had opened up in the convoy. The vampire scowled fiercely as he pressed his foot against the accelerator.
The van moved forward at an even faster pace than before since he had to catch up to the other vehicles in his group.
"Mary what do we…" Lily began to speak but froze as her sister shook her head and glanced in the direction of the vampire.
Now that the feeding frenzy was over, the vampire would be able to listen in to their conversations using his enhanced hearing.
Mary silently blinked a few times and was able to calm down her sister. A lifetime of shared abuse meant that both twins were capable of communicating nonverbally.
It was a necessary skill that they had learned when trying to avoid their father's wrath when he came home drunk.
He would beat them for any slightest noise… or at least that would be his excuse…
If he was in a unpleasant mood... he would beat them...
If he was in a good mood... he would beat them...
If he felt like it... he would beat them...
Dark hatred bubbled up in Mary's heart as she silently promised herself to give that piece of shit a visit before she sent him off to prison.
The walls inside the van were completely dark and there were no windows which made the atmosphere inside the vehicle almost like a prison.
Mary was only able to see the outside world through the windows in front of the driver and passenger seats.
The northern part of the country where the blood lords resided was a cold and harsh place. The trees in this climate had long lost their leaves as winter approached.
Snowflakes gently drizzled down from the sky, and one could see tiny forest critters walking along the side of the road.
There was a sharp jagged cliff coming up ahead and one could see the other four vans at the base of the cliff.
They appeared to be waiting for their companion and his prisoners.
The vampire driving the van reached into his pocket and pulled out a modern cell phone.
"Yeah… yeah… I fucked up… ate one of the products…" the vampire muttered quietly as he placed one hand on the wheel and continued driving.
"I know… I know… listen… the food cut himself! What was I supposed to do?!"
"Oh, save me that bullshit Cain… I know you killed two of our products last month… don't think I didn't see the blood around your mouth…"
The vampire's tone got angrier and angrier as he argued with one of his companions on the other side of the call.
Mary tapped her sister's leg using her foot. She gave her sister a look as she slowly waited for what was to come next.
Three minutes… two minutes… one minute…
Now!
BOOM!
The four vans at the bottom of the cliff exploded simultaneously in large fiery balls of flames that rose up to thirty feet in the air.
The vampire driving the van froze in shock as he watched several masked figures leap out of the nearby forest and surround the burning debris.
His companions were able to survive the flames, but they were not prepared to deal with the attackers lurking just outside the blast zone.
pαпdα Йᴏνê|,сòМ Stab!
The fleeing vampires were killed by silvery longswords that glowed eerily under the light of the moon.
Mary rose up from her feet and rushed towards the back of the van door. She slammed her body against the door and groaned in pain.
Again…
This time she was joined by Lily who also mustered up the courage in her heart and together both girls tried their best to get the door open.
"Come on… come on…" Mary hissed in pain as she felt as though her shoulder was about to break.
She kept relentlessly slamming her body against the door of the van as if she were possessed.
"What the… how did you two get freed?" the vampire in the driver's seat spoke with clear disbelief in his voice.
"Damn it! I can't waste any time… I need to…"
"Duck!" Mary screamed as she grabbed her sister and threw her to the ground. A blade passed mere inches away from where their heads had been just seconds prior.
The vampire clicked his tongue as he glanced at the massacre occurring in the distance and decided to deal with the misbehaving livestock first.
He slowly rose up from his seat and approached the two terrified girls with slow heavy steps that echoed through the van.
Thump! Thump!
