4: Cast It Out

IT was beyond satisfied with the amount of vampires IT had found and killed in such a short time. IT would never have guessed that so many lived down south. Yet already IT had made IT’s way through more vampires than IT could count.
IT stopped and stood still-listening to the sounds around. IT could still sense the ones IT had left behind in Washington-the two female and the slightly larger group that was all male. IT took in a breath and considered for a minute.
IT decided to head back north-work IT’s way through Mexico, finishing off the ones IT had not been able to find, then Arizona, Nevada, Oregon, and finally Washington where IT would find and destroy the remaining vampires there.
IT liked the plan and started off, moving at a slightly more leisurely pace. Suddenly, much like something had attacked IT from behind, IT found Itself flat on IT’s back. IT heard a low hiss in IT’s ear. “No…Do not kill the blonde…She is mine…” IT grunted and nodded standing slowly. “You’re doing well young one. Much better than I had hoped. Still, spare the blonde.” IT did not understand the need for this and as if the voice understood, it quietly said “I will tell you when you’ve found her. Continue on and know I’m watching everything you do.”
IT seemed undaunted by the voice and once again started north, Mexico being his first of many that would lead IT to the blonde that his master so craved.
IT did not understand why-master could have had anyone it wanted yet it simply craved this one. This one vampire that had sent master on a hell-bent mission that had led to the creation of IT and the downfall of all vampires.
IT continued on, IT’s mind still pondering over the many things master had taught IT: how to hunt, how to become invisible, how to properly use the tools master had given IT. Then there was the numerous tests on the vampires that IT knew only by sight-there were two categories: primary and secondary. Primary ones were to be disposed of as soon as IT had found their whereabouts while secondary ones were to be killed simply to rid the world of the monsters.
Primary ones included the family of seven that IT had slaughtered earlier in Washington though one had been missing: a small female that was just under five feet and had short, spiky black hair. IT was not really concerned since IT would find her again and finish her off the way IT had done with the rest of her family.
Well, almost all the rest…
