Part 5: Hunting.

Finally, it was time for me to 'rise and shine' since that the sun had already set. I leaped out of my bed, washed my face and headed towards a nearby mirror. As I saw my image at the mirror, I gave out a horrified scream that made that lazy-bum rushed towards the mirror where I stood and had a very funny look on his face.

"You!" I gestured my fore-finger towards him. "Since when did you did this?!" I showed him the bite sign on my neck and made him hold his mouth and giggled.
"What's so funny?!" My face reddened.
"What's the fuss Food-supply? I thought you had already agreed with that," He paused. "And don't blame me, you're just too slow to detect my presence when I bit your neck."
"Why didn't you bite me when I was awake?!" My face turned red sauce that it was so red like a ruby.
"Well, you really don't want to be in that kind of 'position' don't you? Come one, since that I'm a guy, you won’t stop blushing If I am to sink my fangs on your neck and in the end, I can’t take a sip even a drop of your blood,” He explained briefly.
“No I won’t!” I exclaimed furiously.
“Then prove it,” He let out a sarcastic smirk.
“Since that you’ve already bit me then I need to find myself a prey. If not I’ll die and wilt and you don’t have any more food supply,” I replied.
“That’s not necessary for me to die without you as my food-supply but, just for fun I guess I’ll be helping you out. Your face shows that you know nothing about memory-erasing or even mind-controlling.”
“Well, that’s...” I tried to think of any more diction from my wits since that his prediction was yet so true.
“Well, let’s get moving. It’s already twilight,” He started his pace and was heading towards the doorway.

I gave an unbelievable expression that I felt like smacking him continuously without stopping and to hit him until he knelt upon me and begged for my mercy. Oh, that no good hunter! I walked just right behind him, following like a servant would do to his master but seriously, I wasn’t his servant! Or, just in case you’d call me food-supply.

“Hey, Hans, If you don’t mind me calling you that,” I started the conversation.
“Hmm?” He grunted.
“How did you know that I... You know... don’t know how to use those abilities?” I asked bluntly.
“Well, how can I put this in words… Because you look so stupid,” He answered nonchalantly.
“I’m serious!”
“Okay... Okay... You know, we are very well informed that the vampire who refuses to sink his fangs inside the human necks more than 50 times will not gain that ability. In the other words, your fangs are still immature to awake both the abilities. The vampires have two choices whether to feast their prey until they turn to dust or let them live but must remove their memories. Mind control is used when you are to call your prey and to make sure that he won’t resist you,” He explained briefly. “For now, how many times have you sunk your fangs inside the human neck?”
“Um... what if I say... Once?”
His face turned gloomy and a little bit scarier than usual, “You useless vampire.” He gave himself a face-palm.

Off we went to find me a prey so that I could devour blood and produce enough blood for him to have his feast. We ambushed a human that was walking nearby the inn and dragged him towards a secluded area and of course, with that hunter’s mind-control ability. The man was now unconscious, kneeling before me obediently.

“Here you go. But, don’t drink too much,” He advised.
“Here goes nothing,” I went to him and almost sank my fangs at his neck but, I stopped.
The vampire hunter was observing me having my feast on that human being and It was kind of embarrassing with him glaring at me with that look on his face. He raised one of his eyebrows as a sign of asking, ‘What on earth are you doing?’.

“You know what, I can’t do it with you staring at me like that,” I uttered and I know I was blushing that time.
“Hmph, typical excuses… Don’t mind me. If you can have a feast on him, I promise that I won’t do ‘that’ again,” He vowed.
“Promise?” I said for a confirmation.
“I hate to repeat myself again.”

Without a second thought, I sank my fangs at his neck at feasted him until I’m certain that I was full enough to let him go. I retreated my pace 2 steps backwards as Hans started to erase his memory, preventing him from reveling what had happened to him. He took out a dead snake and placed it nearby his fainted body which is as an evidence to show that he was bitten by a snake. I panted, exhaling and inhaling the air around me and was quite satisfied with it. For a second ago, my eyes turned as red as ruby and was shining too and I was in cloud nine. The feeling of satisfaction after being able to have my feast was intense. He said nothing and off we went, pursuing our journey to the other town.

To be continued.
