Vampire Friday: Vampire Heart 244

Welcome to a new part of Vampire Heart unedited. Have you been bitten yet? Sign up to be part of our awesome Vampire Friday blog hop team! You know you want to!


Summary of the previous episodes: Viorel has been tortured by his supposed family who wanted to have him burn in the sun. Strangely enough the sun didn't burn him as expected but Viorel has no memory of who he is. Following the advises of his supposed father, he left Sighișoara and is now traveling to the West. After some skirmish in a previous city, he found refuge on a boat. Viorel is now in Vienna. The little problem is that the guy at the inn was a bit of an asshole and helped capture Viorel thinking he was a vampire, which he is but nobody needs to know. Now there is a huge man (which I call the colossi) taking care of Viorel and a priest. They brought a girl. Torture my holy water... Fail. Viorel managed to confuse everyone, now he would like to get out of here. But the girl seems pretty useless. They still managed to escape and he left the girl to the care of the boat lady before going back to have two words with his captors but his power of persuasion were failing him. The priest wanted to crack a deal but Viorel is not really up to help his enemies. He finally got some blood but he can't risk to stay in Vienna. He travel to Linz were he stays a bit to learn German.
Viorel wanted to go to Praha but redirect himself toward Augsburg instead where he wants to get a horse, except that the horses are a bit scared of his vampirism and maybe something else. Viorel is really not a horse expert. Then he comes into an altercation with couple of people, he wants some fear in his blood. The girl Viorel has found seemed to enjoy the game. Viorel prepares for the nightmares that come with a feast of blood, in a rush to leave, he cross the dukedom of Lorrain.
We introduced Sorina, three weeks after the beginning of Viorel's escape.
Viorel dreamed of Sorina and woke up not really remembering anything. Traveling to Paris, he arrives at "La cour des miracles". He is rescued by a stranger who turned out to be Nicolas Flamel, the alchemist he was looking for. Nicolas does some strange experiment without Viorel's agreement. Some people are looking for Nicolas's secrets. On the other side of Europe, Sorina awakes and Viorel's past in haunting him. Viorel discovered that he can change into a wolf but that's not the easiest thing to handle. After finding out that a younger version of Nicolas might not be acting with his best interest at heart, Viorel decides to leave for the north. He is now traveling with two people, Alexej who needed to get out of Praha and Irina who he accidentally rescued.

Now, let's continue with Vampire Heart, right where we left off last week
 
I walked out of the bath and dressed up slowly, my mind was still foggy with the dream and there was so many unknown things about myself that I wanted to discover. I passed the philosopher stone around my neck last and buried it under my shirt. I felt the closeness strongly, as if the stone was able to radiate its power through the thin handkerchief I had rolled it in. I needed to be careful with it, I didn’t want to get lost in my memories while traveling with Irina able to steal my sword away from me again and Alexej to busy racing through the wood that he would forgot to eat and drink.
The noises were coming up from the dining room and I went out of the bath room. I made sure that I didn’t forget anything. I wondered if the door of Irirna’s bedroom was able to screen the chant and shout of the men half or totally drunk downstairs. I hoped she was already asleep. There was no need for her to worry about men again tonight and not as long as she was under my protection. I also worried about her blood. I needed it soon and she needed to sleep well for it to come back efficiently. There was something I didn’t really understand. It was said and I wouldn’t have denied that once people would lose blood, it would never come back, but in the village and here in Irina’s body, it seemed that the blood was reforming itself with some times. I wonder if it was specially due to being bitten by vampire or if it could also come back if lost by other mean. I wanted to know everything Irina felt when bitten. I fought against the sudden urge to walk pass my door to hers. I unlocked my door and locked it straight away behind myself. Just like in the bathroom, I wanted to have as much tranquility and privacy as I could. I could still hear the men sing popular song and shout at each other for me drink. They would calm down in few hours when they would have had enough to drink and would feel asleep from their overly wet dinner. I didn’t understand human behavior so much, all the humans I had met wanted so many things but they would waste their short life doing everything but trying to get them but dreaming about meeting their dream and reaching their happiness. I was afraid to see that the more time I was spending in their company the more I was becoming like them. 
I knew I had all eternity in front of me but Sorina didn’t and I had wasted my time leaving without her. I lay down on my bed and blew the last candle. I pulled the philosopher stone from behind my shirt and opened a little hole in the handkerchief. I needed to remember, I needed to know and I needed to know now, to have everything back in my memory. I was still a bit uneasy about the stone, its magic was something that I couldn’t fully grasp my mind around. I pressed the tip of my index finger on it, just like I had seen Nicolas do when he had shown me the real power of the stone. I wanted to be able to take my finger away from it as soon as I wanted. I had seen how difficult it had been to take away the fist of Perenelle and Nicolas clung around the stone when they went through their regenerating transformation.
