Fear.
It permeates the air as I stalk my prey. I’ve been chasing this
asshole for over an hour, lurking in the dark shadows of downtown
New Onyx, dragging it out before I pounce. A heady cocktail of guilt,
sweat, and absolute terror practically coats my tongue the closer I get,
enticing the monster within me to the surface.
His shoes squeak and scuff the asphalt of the myriad alleyways he ducks
down attempting to lose me, his heavy, labored breathing audible above the
other sounds of an urban city, drowning out sirens, car engines, and other
mortals.
He fucked up and he’s going to pay for it.
My target finally makes a wrong turn, finding himself facing a tall brick
wall with barbed wire twisting around the top. I appear at the mouth of the
alley, unhurried and seemingly aloof, but I’m far from that. The part of me I
keep tucked away most of the time, the most feral essence of who I am, is
simmering just beneath my collected surface.
I inhale his scent, my fangs descending in preparation for the kill.
Instead of the trash littering the ground and the ubiquitous vague stench of
old urine and vomit, all I can smell is sweet, sweet horror. I hum with
contentment as I take a measured step toward him. The sky, thick with
summer humidity, finally relents, dumping sudden buckets of rain.
The man plasters his back to the brick wall, wildly searching for a
nonexistent exit, hands pressed flat against the cool stone. He’s an average
man of unremarkable looks and build, probably mid-forties. My target
gasps as he’s drenched, but he doesn’t take his eyes off me. I’m pretty sure
he hasn’t bothered to blink.
“Look, man. I don’t know why you’re chasing me, but if you want
money or something—”
I raise my hand to stop him, my lip curling in a snarl. “Money?” I scoff.
“I’m not robbing you.”
“Then what is this?”
Tilting my head, I squeeze my hands together before cracking my
knuckles, smiling when his eyes grow wide as he watches my nails go from
normal and short to long and sharp.
“What the fuck?!”
“What’s your name?”
“Uh…Sc-Scott.”
“Scott.” I repeat the word, emphasizing the final ‘t’ as I practically bite
out the name. “Well, Scott, two hours ago you did something very bad.”
His face twists in fear. “You saw…”
“Yes, I saw it. Unfortunately, too late to prevent it, but your victim has
been cared for.”
“I-I…” He seems unable to provide an explanation.
Doesn’t matter. There’s nothing he could say that would make what I
witnessed okay.
“I apologize for my lateness. I had to make sure that poor girl was taken
to safety.” I stalk toward him, stopping a few inches from his face. “Do you
know she’s only seventeen? Is this a hobby, Scott? Taking advantage of
people weaker than you?”
