Vampire Friday: Vampire Heart 292

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 was still a little girl at that time we had travelled to Riazan in the south of Muscovy we were staying at an inn just like this one, near a forest. Of course my mother was afraid of the wolves that roamed the region and being very careful not to go out after dark and to have the horses hidden in the stable. 

The men were laughing and drinking at night, careless as ever. And they came. There were three of them, very green and brown with spikes on their spinal cord and large wings. We were playing outside as they flew about us casting their deadly shadow on the ground. I ran to my mother and we hide in the forest. 

I cried, I wanted to go to my room, the forest and the wolves were as scary for me as the dragons. Two of them passed their way down but the third one landed on the ground. I don’t know what really happened because my mother took me deeper in the forest and hide my face in her dress, but I heard the others cry and yell and shout. I heard the sound of death in their throat. 

And then it was quiet. Even the birds had stopped singing as if they were already mourning the dead or if they knew that it was better to hide. We walked slowly out of the forest, careful at each steps not to make a sound on a branch, I could barely breathe, I wanted to cry but the tears refused to come out, I wanted to yell but the sound was stuck in my throat. 

The inn was on fire, the place I had considered safer than the forest where my mother had taken me was burning with no one to throw a bucket of water at it. It was laying on the ground, his wings around it like a cover, it was eating the dead body of our guards and servants. It’s eyes were dark and narrow as it plunged it’s large beak in their flesh. 

My mother took me back to the forest. We stayed there a long time hiding, until someone from the next village came over few days later. When my mother heard the voices, she had a sigh of relieved, something I only heard twice in my life, something that said “we are alive.” 

I don’t want to see a dragon again, we are better off as soon as we are done with breakfast.” She said.
She didn’t try to convince me, she thought I was already convinced.
