Life in blood, a.l.c.fletcher [highly recommended books TXT] 📗

Michael was out in the park playing football with his friends when all of a sudden he thought oh crap because he was meant to be home in five minutes. So he got his entire stuff said goodbye to his friends and ran home as fast as he could. He fell over twice because his lace was undone but he kept running. He got to his front door and thought my mum is going to kill me. He was filthy mud all over his brand new shirt and all over his favourite jeans.
He tried sneaking upstairs but it didn’t work his mum shouted him, so he walked into the kitchen where she was standing waiting for him. She took one look at him and sighed. He kept thinking oh crap I’m in deep trouble. As soon as he stopped thinking his mum started talking to him but most of it was going over his head until she said that is it. He was thinking what is it so he asked. His mum replied shouting ‘I am fed up of you going out basically every day and coming back all muddy and filthy and until you can start thinking about other people and how much I am getting annoyed at you because it takes the Mick trying to get this dirt out of your clothes YOU ARE GROUNDED’. Michael was like that is so unfair I do think of other people and it’s not my fault my friends tackle me to the floor but instead of saying that he said ok and walked upstairs.
Once Michael was upstairs and in his room he text his friends and told them that he had been grounded and wasn’t allowed out anymore and told them what his mum had said. They text him back saying omg that is so unfair. Then his dad came home and shouted him and then started shouting at him. That same night they went out for dinner and his mum and dad were still in a mood with him. As soon as the dinner had been served his dad started eating and spilt it on his white shirt and so Michael said ‘Its not me getting dirty no more is it’. His little sister laughed at this and his dad just gave him a disturbing look. Then all of a sudden Michael and his little sister Phoebe stopped smiling and laughing. So then their dad looked at them and started laughing as well and so the whole family started laughing. Everyone in the restaurant started to look at them in a weird way but they just ignored everyone.
Michael was still grounded two weeks later but he had feeled like he had changed in a good way. Over the last few weeks that he had been grounded he had started thinking about this girl alot in school. He really liked her so on Monday he decided he was going out ask her out.
On Monday he went to school and at break instead of going outside to play football with his friends he went to where all the girls hung out and he went up to Kristie and asked her all of her friends looked at him and walked off so that they could talk alone. Kirstie said to him ‘look Michael i really really like you as well but I don’t know about going out with you because Mac asked me out and i told him i don’t know because I like someone else’. Michael said ‘why don’t you just tell him no because i really like you Kristie’. She said ‘i will go out with you Michael’. Michael then kissed her and the bell went and they went to lessons.
When he told his friend Lloyd at lunch he said ‘well done mate’. They played football until lunch was over and then at the end of school Michael met Kirstie at the school gate and walked her home and then went home himself. When he got home his mum and dad asked him where he had been and he said he had walked his friend home Kirstie and then his mum told him that her and his dad had decided that he wasn’t grounded anymore. He went out that night and met with his friends and then he met with Kirstie. They met at the park in the small town of frodsham. They sat under a tree and talked for a while. All of a sudden Michael felt the urge to lean forwards and kiss her so he did and she lent forward to him aswell and the next minute they were kissing.
Michael walked Kirstie home and then run home himself otherwise he was going to be late as he ran through the streets he saw lots of couples on corners kissing but he just kept running. As Michael was running past one alleyway he didn’t get past it. A hand reached out and grabbed him. It was a stranger for all Michael new but when Michael looked at him to kick him he saw the man’s eyes and they were red. Before Michael new it he was being dragged away and couldn’t do anything about it.
He was taken to this dark factory where it was silent al you could hear was the rats running across the floor. He was shivering as mad as a wet cat in the cold night. He couldn’t see anything he was in complete darkness.
A light turned on and out of the shadows appeared the man who had brought him here. His eyes were still red and Michael got a proper look at him now. His hair was all tangled up it was brown his teeth were yellow and they had red blobs on them that looked like blood to Michael. He looked as cold as ice. He looked at Michael as if he were something to eat. Michael was scared. He didn’t know what to do. He looked around the room to see if there was anybody else there who could help him. There was, it was a woman who looked as cold as ice and had red stains on her teeth. She was beautiful. However she also looked at him as if he was something 2 eat. He just stared at them both as they walked towards him. The woman walked around him looking at him scanning him.
He asked them ‘are you human? Because you don’t look like it’ They replied with a growl and he thought well okay your not. They then said ‘we are not human we are nothing like your kind. We are vampires’. Michael was now even more scared and he didn’t get scared easily. He was brave. He had always been told stories about vampires as a little kid. They all had in them a vampire sucking human blood and killing the human. He thought am i going to die? Is the end of my life? The woman said ‘yes it might be. We might turn you into one of us.’ Michael give the woman a quizzical look. She smiled at him and said ‘I can read minds.
They left Michael alone. He sat in the dark thinking. He could hear what sounded to him like loud whispers. He thought its the man and woman arguing. What are their names? The woman then walked in and said ‘there is something you should know we have made our desicion but we are not going to tell you yet. And as for you wondering what our names are we shall tell you seeing as we know your name. Our names are Alice and Emmet. We have come here from a different country and we are here to take revenge for what your ancestors did to our ancestors.’
Alice then sniffed the air and looked at him again as if he was food. He started to look scared again but Alice just kept walking towards him as if nothing was wrong. He went to shout for help but nothing came out he just sat there with his mouth open as if he was shouting. Alice walked around him twice and stopped when she got to his right side.
She moved his hair and lent forward and kissed his neck and then ran her fingers along where she had kissed him. She lent forward and went to bite him. Suddenly the factory door opened and light shone towards them both. Alice hissed. The shape walked into the factory and walked forward several steps. Then stopped.........
The figure suddenly jumped towards Alice and Michael. Michael recognised the figure. It was kirstie. She landed on top of Alice and ripped her throat out. Kirstie turned around and suddenly Emmet was on top of her hissing a growling at her. They were fighting for a while but eventually Kirstie got him on the floor and ripped his throat out. Alice and Emmet were both lying there on the floor DEAD...
Kirstie turned around and faced Michael. He was sitting there in shock. Staring at her in despair. She walked towards him and ripped up all the tape that was tying him to the chair. Michael was still sat there in the chair staring at her in shock. He couldn’t get over the fact that she had just done what she had. She said ‘I can explain’. Michael said ‘Can you’. She replied ‘Yes look i am one of their kind but i do not drink human blood, I drink alcohol to stop me from being thirsty and wanting human blood. I like to be around humans. I wish I was still human’. Michael said ‘So you have been struggling to resist biting me because you are a vampire? Why didn’t you just tell me?’.
