Chapter 18: CHAPTER EIGHTEEN: BILLY'S TRANSFORMATION
damn!! damn!! I can't believe I lost to that lone wolf of all people,I wish I could kill him Billy said as he walked in an empty alley.
you want to kill Ethan, I can help you with that , a soft voice whispered through the darkness .
the tone was seductive ,so intoxicating that it sent chills down Billy's spine.
who said that ? Billy looked around him as he tried to trace the voice but to no avail.
don't bother looking for me with this your human eyes you can't see me no matter how hard you try unless I show myself, the voice said .
Billy gritted his teeth,then show yourself!!, he shouted.
huuu!! I'm scared , I was wondering what can make a mere human withstand the charm in my voice,but now I can see that you are being consumed by anger , is it just because Ethan defeated you that got you so flared up or something else , the voice asked.
you... , how do you know I was defeated by Ethan , who the fuck are you if you think this is funny I'm letting you know that it's not .Blake shouted angrily .
I don't have time for your stupidity , I can give you powers beyond a human limit but at a cost of your humanity, are you willing to trade ? the voice asked .
eh!! , Billy scoffed and said , stop imagining shit , just because I can't see you doesn't mean you can mess with my brain , there is nothing beyond human capability Billy retort.
hmph!! ignorance is what will ruin you humans , at that moment Billy felt an invisible force crashing on him, as he finds it difficult to stand or even breath he was forced to kneel down from the pressure, what would you say now ? , the voice asked .
I.. I.. believe you..now, Billy managed to choke out words.
that's better,the voice said and the pressure disappeared.
AH!! AH!! AH!! thank you he said as he tried to steady himself.
what do you say about my offer ? the voice asked.
if it's for power I can give up on humanity , Billy said with determination as he thought about the humiliation Ethan made him feel from himself.
very well, the voice said.
at that moment Billy saw a girl with pale skin, dark hair, a small face and from her back spread blood red wings as she descend to the ground slowly like a fallen angel.
you...you , Billy could not complete his statement out of fear of what he was seeing and he takes few steps back.
do you want to become a vampire ? , the girl asked .
you I know you , you are the girl beside Ryan on the field , you... are...a...vam... vampire.., vampire's are real ? Billy asked himself.
I will ask you one last time, do you want to become a vampire ? Layla asked .
yes!! yes!! yes!! Billy replied as if traumatized by all he had witnessed.
very well, Layla bites her wrist and and her blood began drop on the floor, lick all the blood.
Billy kneeled down on the ground and began to crawl closer to the blood on the floor and began to licks it .
you will need blood after you have transformed so I already prepared gifts for you, consider it as a welcoming gift from me to you Layla said as two girls walked into the alley.
Billy who was kneeling down on the ground, looked at the approaching figures and his eyes widen , this are Betty and Christiana my classmates what are they doing here ? Billy asked in surprise.
you see, you will be dead in few minutes but you will resurrect as a halfling, you will need blood to stabilize your new system, that's why they are here.
what I'm going to die ? Billy asked in shock .
yes as I said earlier and you will resurrect as an halfling, so you will need to feed on their blood to stabilize your system and if you don't you will die, Layla laughed.
"but you don't say anything about this earlier", Blake shouted in anger.
whoosh!!! , Billy say Layla disappear and the next moment, AHHH!!! was the sound that came out of Billy's mouth as he looks down at his chest then he saw Layla's hand has pierced into his chest and came out from his back with his heart in her hand .
why..... Billy asked but couldn't hear the answers to his question as the world blurred and he was dead .
Layla removed her hands from his chest and dropped his heart on the floor, she licked the blood on her hand as she walks closer to the two girls who just witnessed what happened but no expression can be found on their face , it was as if their mind was not there .
I want the both of you to go and seat down beside him and wait for him to wake up and feed on your blood, Layla said as her eyes glowed bright red and the girls nodded and went to seat down beside Billy's corpse.
and now let the fun begin , Layla said as she flew to the top of a building and continued to look at Billy's body .
after few minutes,
AHH!! AHH!! AHH!! , Billy gasps out for air as he sat up right and began to touch his chest, but he couldn't find any injuries, was it a dream ? Billy asked himself but he looked at his back and saw a heart on the floor, this is my ....
Billy sniffed in as if trying to preserve something, something touched his hand and he quickly looks and saw Betty touching his hand with blood dripping from her hand , at that moment his mouth went dry, his throat burned, and primal hunger surge through him , without thinking he lunged at her his fangs into her neck.
Betty let out a soft gasp as Billy drank deeply, the blood fueled his transformation.
his eyes glowed bright red , and his strength grew with every drop he drank .
when he finally pulled away, Betty lifeless body slumped to the ground,but Billy felt no remorse .
the hunger has not been fully satiated ,and he turned to Christiana and sank his fangs into her neck without hesitation .
when it was over, both girls lay dead at his feet,their blood coursing through his veins ,he stands up feeling a power unlike anything he has ever known.
well done, Layla said with approval as her feet touched the ground , how do you feel ?
I feel power flowing in my veins more than I ever imagined , I feel extraordinary, but I can still sense the difference between the both of us , Billy said .
hmph, both of us are on different level you are just a mere halfling. Layla said with a cold tone.
ok, so what do we do with the bodies ? Billy asked .
let's get out of here , the police will clear the mess ,and there is a lot for you to learn,Layla said as she she withdrew her wings, shifting back into her human form.
Billy quickly picked his discarded heart and ran after Layla , his new vampire instinct already sharpening . Ethan, you will be my next target . Billy said with a smile.
