Fastest Point And Shoot



The Visitor

PART




*

Jim gently took the baby in her arms and climbed the stairs.

saw the vampire coming off his coat and what remained of his shirt, clenching his teeth in pain, he wanted to hope once again that it was all a dream, and shook the head, then walked down the aisle and laid his daughter in her bed, tuck and gently stroking her cheek. He was retracing his steps to where a terrible, a cross between a scream, a roar gorgoglìoe put her wings on his feet and rushed down the stairs, thinking to find his wife with his throat cut. So it was not: Alice found standing with a blanket in hand and the face pale, while the vampire writhing on the floor with her back arched and his chest on fire. Exploded in the garden yet another feast of barks, howls and cries of joy.

"I KILL? I have to turn off? Please, leave me off, oh my God, Jim, is burning alive, oh God .. "
" Not ... more ... "growled Raistan and poured more alcohol on the wounds on fire, fueling new sources of new primal screams. A nauseating stench of burning flesh was spreading into the room and took Jim to take a hand to his mouth to keep from throwing up. He turned, as drunk, and climbed the ladder to go by his daughter, in case you had woken up to all that noise.
The vampire began to tear a hand with the teeth in a desperate attempt to retain screams; cried Alice, in turn, and when he saw that his hair were on fire threw him over with a blanket, smothering the flames, before falling to sit on the floor with his stomach in an uproar. The body behind her, which rose more than just a wisp of smoke, as the path jolted by electric discharge. The cry had been reduced to a rattle, no less terrible because seemingly endless, which echoed the confusion outside.
Alice jumped up, walked like a fury to the door-window and opened it cracked
"Enough! Be quiet, let him at least die in peace, not you have already done enough? E. .. E. .. Do not step on my hydrangeas, "

The pack fell silent instantly, and Alice closed the door violently, bursting into tears and slipping down on the floor, exhausted. A giggle and he received the raise face streaked with tears. The vampire was watching "The ... hydrangeas, Alice?"
no longer even have the strength to rise from the ground, the cat woman up to him and laughed in turn, almost hysterical, then turned and vomited ;. "Excuse me ... It was the most frightening that I've ever gotten. "
" I no, unfortunately. Thank you for remaining. "
" At least it worked? How do you feel? "
" As if I was on fire ... you know Alice, now as pale as me. "
A faint smile illuminated the face of the woman.
"Come, help to lie down on the couch and I'll get the bandages to bind up."
The vampire had lost his usual elegance in their movements and Alice was almost forced to lift the weight off the ground. Fortunately, an ashen Jim and embarrassed reappeared and helped them both.
"How did it go? I'm sorry, my wife is accustomed to seeing all kinds of wounds, but ... I was too much, in fact. I'm just an accountant ... "
Raistan gave him a weak smile," It's all right, Alice. You're lucky. "
" I know. At least it served to you? ... This horror, I say. "
" Between ourselves, I think not. Perhaps it has slowed down a bit 'infection, just to give me time to do what I do, but the poison was already too widespread. No matter, I had imagined: it was almost obvious. "
Alice had returned with its load of bandages and plasters and, after hearing those words, her eyes filled with tears again.
"He was so sure," said Jim, "because to undergo this torture?"
"And deprive me of the pleasure of someone who took care of me? The sensation that you cared? "
Alice's eyes widened," Are you crazy, really. You may have crowds of beautiful vampire and human fall at his feet and prefers to be burnt alive by a nurse thirty-five overweight. "
" She is beautiful. It is so alive ... "
" What makes us try with my wife? "

All three smiled, then Alice and Jim took care to wrap the chest of the vampire tortured by working in silence under her scowl . They acted with the utmost delicacy and apologized to him every time he caused him pain, he dabbed the sweat from his face, as if they were dealing with a family instead of a murderess fallen into their house to disrupt their lives.
"How are you doing?"
"To do what?"
"To be so kind to someone like me. I'm reading and I do not feel hate, do not even feel a great fear. How is it possible? "
Alice shrugged," She is unwell and it is here in our house. What should we do now, to be holed up in a corner to cry and shake with fear? Maybe she will be kind to us at the end, and will not allow these beasts come and kill us all. I am sure that under those canines at the bottom of a heart beat, even if she does everything to convince us otherwise. "
" In my long life I have done terrible things, I Believe. "
" There seems to be proud of, that's something. Here we are done. Rest a little ', now. "
" How long do we have? "
" Do not worry about it. Get plenty of rest. "
" Jim, you have a clock that flashes in the head, is a bit 'hard to ignore ... "
Jim blushed and looked down:" Excuse me, is that they are a bit 'nervous by nature, especially since we have Ellie. "
" I see that is missing about a quarter of an hour will do. "
Raistan closed his eyes and stood motionless, as if to gather strength. Alice felt that better accommodate the pillow under his head and Jim with a blanket that covered him, wanted to go down memory lane to when someone had dealt with him in the easy way, but try as she might, she could not. It had been too long, and his memories were hazy and confused human, like a dream that you are unable to grasp. Patience. He would settle for silence.

"Um ... the ultimatum is about to expire ..."
The vampire drew back the blanket and sat down, bowing his head for a moment in his hands, then took a deep breath and stood up that way so meteoric that puzzled humans.
"I want my coat, please."
"There's a back door," said Alice. "There's even a roof hatch, could try to escape from there ..."
Alice put her hands on her shoulders and tried to push it back down, but it was groped as to move a concrete wall .
"Raistan Van Hoeck not run away, not at this point. Ci sono cose che… un vampiro deve fare per il solo fatto di essere un vampiro. Right, Jim? "He said, echoing the thoughts of mankind for a few hours before.
Jim looked down and nodded.
"Ye men of any kind ... you are unbearable! Why will not even try to save themselves? It makes no sense! "
He smiled, the first real smile of that crazy night and Alice think it so sad and sweet as he had seen in a long time despite the flash of lightning elongated canines. Then he took her hands Raistan the woman between her and bent down to touch the back with pale lips.
"I said I do not fight, I give it to them like a sacrificial lamb. But if it still left a shred of humanity in me, I can not stand here and wait until you pay for me. Thanks for everything. You made me feel less alone and more human than I felt for a long time. Now there is more time. Give my regards to Ellie. "
" I'm here, sir. Go away? "
" Yes, baby, I gotta go. I'm sorry I woke up. "
"I do not see you anymore?"
"I'm afraid no, Ellie. I have to go somewhere far away, but I hope it will be good ... even for people like me. "

He started to turn around, but she took his hand and reached out to him his stuffed mouse:
" ; Take it, sir. To me it is almost always fear go away ... "
Raistan put his long pale hand and furrowed veins of the head of the child:" It would spoil too much, baby. I'll take with me in another way in here. "And she leaned a hand on his chest.
Then, the vampire named Raistan moved with the speed of a shadow towards the French window, opened it and went out in the cold of the night, greeted by a roar of terrifying barks and howls. The
Andrews ran to the window and saw them for a moment the strange visitor in crouch position battle, they felt, despite the uproar, the mighty roar of gushing from his throat, met for a moment his gaze still grateful, then they preferred not to see nothing and attempted to return to the normalcy of their lives.


EPILOGUE


Alice Andrews, nothing been the same since then. He tried to behave as always, fulfill its tasks in home and away with his usual efficiency, playing with Ellie, but her thoughts kept returning there, day after day, night after night. Hardly slept and spent hours, motionless in bed, imagining the most horrible fate for the vampire, unable to impedirselo, unable even to erase the sense of guilt for leaving him out to be massacred by wolves. It had not even thanked him for his sacrifice, giving it almost for granted.

The next morning those crazy events, had gone out into the garden to check the status of things: everything was normal, as if it were just a dream. Looking good, however, had found traces of blood in the grass and iced the armband with a leather coat that had seen his wrist Raistan. Her heart did a somersault in chest. I had collected, cleaned and had examined the jacket. The emblem in white gold, oval, was a lion rampant between two opposing crescent moon, a notch below read: "Non omnis moriar" (I will not die at all). She had worn without even thinking about it and when her husband had seen him that night, he looked but did comments. Alice also suspected that his nights were not peaceful, had surprised him awake at his side on several occasions, however, talk about it, it seemed too painful for both. It was also asked if there were infatuated with the vampire and had failed to give an honest answer. Maybe it was too early. To make matters worse, Ellie asked often of the "White Lady" of where he had gone and why he could not return to find them.

"But ... you've never been afraid of him, babe? How is it possible? "Asked his father once, after yet another question. The girl looked at him as if he were crazy.
"Why should I be afraid?! He was sick and sad, it was not bad! It was just pretend, "Jim smiled and kissed her on the head. Perhaps the children can read minds. Then one morning nearly two months later, Alice was down to collect the mail and, in half the usual leaflets and bills, he found an envelope with the address is written in elegant calligraphy-fashioned, all aflutter. Her heart had missed a shot, was hurriedly returned home and sat on the sofa, opening the envelope and pulls out a sheet of fine paper and heavy, ivory.

Paris, February 23

Dear Mr Andrews, Alice and Jim,

I am pleased to write these few lines to let you know I did. Grimulf will still have to wait before being able to satisfy his thirst for justice at my expense. When I came out from your home, not hoping for anything but a quick end, I find I have more faithful friends than I had never imagined. They fought beside me, I have taken care of, I have been close until I was able to carry back to myself, just like you. It was the biggest surprise of my life and made me reflect on many things, about what we talked about during my stay with you. Now I am obliged to make choices and this means that living with myself and my condition while regrettable, is more bearable, day after day.

I hope you found my bracelet. Despite its age, is very old and precious. Make of it what you will feel more appropriate, although a part of me hopes that you will want to keep as a souvenir of our evening together.

I wanted more pleasant circumstances had led us to make mutual understanding, but I'm sure that in that case, my stupidity would not have allowed to appreciate how it has come true.

With these words, I leave and I wish you all the best.

Please give a big hug to your lovely little girl, let her know that the "White Lady" and thinks that his journey so far has been pleasant.

Your servant and debtor forever

Raistan Van Hoeck.




Alice briefly shook the letter to his chest, his face streaked with tears, then stood up and took her to the kitchen, where the affixed with a magnet on the door of the fridge. Even Jim could see her, just returned home. He wiped his face, touched the paper with a dreamy smile, then went upstairs and began to make the beds.

Kidney Infection How Long Should I Take Off Work?




The Visitor




"Mom, Dad, wake up! I'm scared! "

Jim Andrews opened one eye and turned the digital clock on the bedside of his wife. The 3:35, and good ...
Ellie "Ellie, go back to sleep, you dreamed of ..."
"What's happening? Ellie, are you okay? "
Alice, wife of Jim and mother of Ellie, emerged from the depths of the duvet. She turned on the light and found herself staring at her daughter, shivering in her nightgown of Hello Kitty, with her stuffed mouse close to the chest.
"Love, what is it?"
"I heard a loud noise from below, and then the sound of someone crying. You have not heard? "
" No, baby, you had dreamed. You want to come here with us? "
" I dreamed, I'm sure! I was already awake, even out there are some strange noises! Dad, please, do not you go see? "
Jim sighed and gave up. He knew too well his daughter to the illusion of being able to calm her down - and back to sleep - if he had not bent to his will.
"Ok, Ellie, ok, I go. You tucked under the covers with mom, if not catch cold. "
The girl obeyed, and Jim took his first steps across the room, the sound of something that was shattered on the ground floor and snatched it froze in place a screamed his wife and daughter.
"Since I was not dreaming? Is there anyone down, I knew it! "
" Alice, called the police and close yourselves inside. I'm going to see. "
" T'AZZARDARE NOT TO LEAVE HERE ALONE! "Alice screamed clutching the child.
"Sst, Shut up, you want to notice that we have heard? "
" Better, maybe they leave. The phone, Jim, get that phone! "
" Take thou, I'm going to see. "

opened the door of the closet and pulled an old baseball bat, then walked out of the room before the wife could protest. Women do not understand, there were things that a man must do for the mere fact of being a man.
He stopped on top of the stairs and stood listening, with all the nerves. Ellie was right, you could hear strange noises from outside, if a There was careful, like a low growl interspersed with angry words. A new crash startled him from under the bat and almost fell out of hand. Ellie and Alice screamed again, then Jim heard his wife enter a phone number in a frenzy.
"Hello?! Hello?! Shit, you answer! Oh my God, Jim, there is no line ... "
Ellie began to cry.
Jim got the first steps, his heart pounding in my chest.
His legs were as stiff as sticks, as if they belonged to someone else and not by Jim Andrews, accountant forties, red hair and the ready wit. Maybe it was a dream, maybe he was not really down the ladder, maybe there were only four steps to separate it from the unknown and the duty to protect his family in person. He stopped, was imposed to control your breathing is too laborious and almost screamed when the cold hand of his wife caught him by the forearm.
"What the hell are you doing both, the Holy Christ? Return immediately above, "he hissed, but he knew that nothing could change her mind.
"We can not be there alone, please ..." said Alice.
Whoever the intruder, it was impossible that they had not yet heard. What did they want? As a thief must have been a little, though it was already managed to smash two objects. And if it was not a thief, what was he doing in their house? Why did not the alarm sounded?

"The warning there would be no good, or even your phone. He would only put at risk other people besides you, believe me. "
The voice came from the bottom of the ladder from the living room, and made his skin crawl to the three Andrews close to each other on the third last step. The tone was polite, the sentence handed down to a barely audible volume, with an accent difficult to place, but never as now Jim Andrews wanted to turn and flee.
"Please sit down ... I only ask not to turn on the light, for the time being groped and non-heroic gestures. Ellie, do not be afraid, go and sit on the couch with mom and dad. "
" How do you know my name, sir? "
" People like me know many things, dear. I also know that your dad is thinking of doing something very stupid ... Believe me, Mr. Andrews, is much better than to sit on the couch with his wife and daughter. "
Jim, Alice and Ellie sat down gingerly, continuing to hold on to each other as hamsters in the den. Jim could barely hide his nervousness. How the hell did that guy know what he was thinking - by the way, the gun in the closet near the entrance - and because he knew their names? We were keeping an eye on? They wanted to kidnap one of them? Oh my God, Ellie, rather than him, but not the child, or Alice.
"I do not think nonsense, please," continued the intruder. "I have other problems at the moment ... ... aaarghhh" The
Andrews rose to their feet as one when they heard lament quell'agghiacciante gushing from the throat of their host. He glimpsed the outline of the room on the second sofa, placed at right angles to the first, and saw him collapse, turned in on itself, while outside, through the door window overlooking the garden, a whole cacophony of barking, howls, coarse laughter, exploded as a signal, making the three victims cry out in terror.
"What's out there?" Cried Jim. "WHAT THE FUCK IS THE OUT!? Answer me, by God! "Read
terror, Jim launched himself into the mysterious visitor, and tried to clipping to clothes, but was rejected by an extraordinary force, and found himself flying across the room.
"What the fuck?" He thought, rising from broken windows, amazed and terrified that more painful. He was thrown to three meters away, tearing down the vessel of the nozzle of happiness.
"Jim! Jim! "
" Dad! Leave him alone, ugly, not to hurt my dad, "
" Do not ... touch me ... do not ever try to touch me, I warn you ... and you two sessions, "
This command was given at a volume likely to be mother and daughter screaming in unison, but got the desired effect: the two resided with a crash on the sofa, as if shot.
"They out there, I'm not here for you ... I'm here for me. It's me they want ... ... I did not know where else to go ... I just ... I just need some rest '... but ... rest ... "
The last word was spoken almost in a whisper, then the figure stood motionless and silent, her head thrown back against the couch. Jim slowly rose from the ground and sat down next to her women, who embraced him crying softly.
"Sir, you are wounded, I understand. My wife is a nurse, because it allows us to turn on the light and help you? Could you please ... "
" Put it this way: as long as I'm safe here, those out there would never do anything to endanger, for their families are sacred, not for me ... I am selfish and only care about myself, then you have a problem ... a big problem ... I'm thirsty ... "
" I can bring water, if I leave go to the kitchen. "
The guest laughed loudly, but soon the laughter turned into a frantic fit of coughing and forced him to bend back on itself, gasping and groaning.
"I can not stay here doing nothing with a choking on my couch, I'm sorry!" So

Alice Andrews spoke, the warrior, and turned on the light before the guests could do something about it. There was a moment of silence interdict in which the four defendants were fixed, then in order: the guest closed his eyes and sighed, exhausted, Jim choked and cursed mentally curse the wife who always wanted to do his own thing ; Alice put her hands to his face and stared, unable to give the slightest sound, Ellie said, "Wow!"
Being on the couch again opened his eyes and the corners of his mouth sag a hint of a smile: "In three hundred years is the first time someone looks at me and says wow , little girl."
Ellie got up and walked towards the strange individual. The hand of her mother snapped and grabbed his arm, but she struggled with the decision without even looking back. He reached his hand slowly and touched his cheek, whose skin was so pale as to leave a glimpse of the network of veins beneath.
«Sei freddo… vuoi che ti porti il mio pigiamino con gli orsetti?»
Le labbra dell’essere tremarono di nuovo retention of hilarity, but soon twisted into a grimace of pain. He dropped back, her long blond hair, almost white, to cover his face bloodless. He wore a long black coat from the old-fashioned, and when the flaps of his overcoat opened the eyes of horrified Andrews appeared four huge gashes that crossed diagonally around the chest, bleeding and infected air.
'Oh my God, "said Alice," were those dogs out there to reduce it? You need to go to hospital, does not understand? "
" There are dogs ... and no ... I can not go to the hospital ... Ellie already knows that I'm different, in that special way that children have to figure things unexplained. Sooner or later you too will understand and regret that he turned on the light, because when you are convinced that what they are, you will also understand that those out there are not dogs, but something much worse. And though there may be around things like that, here in your beautiful city, with manicured gardens and the station wagon in the garage, God knows what else may exist. There are limits and this is something simply unacceptable for adults. "

"Raistaaan ..." voice called from the outside, "yu-huuuuuu Raistan ... ... come out, let it be as good people, you're good, do not force us to go ... so you do not escape, You know, you have been bitten and scratched, it's just a matter of time, let us finish the job ... Raaaaaiiiiist, tell me, 'burnt'
A chorus of coarse laughter greeted this last question, after which a new access barking and howling of the occupants of the house fell silent.
"Now, I ask you, look at me." Being named Raistan turned my gaze to the three humans, strange blue eyes like ice, with red flecks in the iris and pupil a disturbing portrait as that of snakes.
"The are looking at, believe me, we do not have eyes for you."
"Then you say what you think."
"You are ... a little 'pale ..." stammered Jim .
"And?"
"You're as cold as the snow! And your eyes like my cat! "
"Ellie!"
A slight smile curled his lips again individual.
"And?"
"Listen," Jim blurted out, "let's stop with the jokes. I do not care what she is, I just want to know what will happen to us and what we can do for this to end soon. What he wants us to believe that exactly? What is a vampire? "
The silence of the unknown, almost like an admission of guilt, gave further nerve to Mr. Andrews. On a Suddenly, a sort of short-circuit the mental shock and detonated all at once the accumulated tension.
"Enough!" He cried, rushing to the individual and taking his face in his hands. "You can not, absolutely can not believe this is a joke, candid camera," Jim
he felt the chill of the skin but would ignore it against all logic: "It's all a trick, Alice, someone is kidding, this shit is rigged, has the contact lenses, did you contact lenses? "
Raistan left him do. It lets you handle the face as if to ask myself, pull my hair, even open his mouth, he let Jim hunted exultant gash on his finger into his chest and portray the shooting as if it were burned, and then, as fast as a snake, slipped behind him without even giving him time to realize it, froze the arms in an iron grip and brought his mouth a few inches from his throat, drawing the terrible fangs.

"What you see, Alice? Tell your husband what he sees at this time. "
'teeth, Jim ... not fake ... Oh God, please do not do it ... "
"Now you believe it, Jim? Do you think your wife? "Yes
believer, had believed from the moment he had slipped half a hand in the wound on his chest and he felt cold as a piece of meat just out of the fridge.
"Yes! Yes, I believe, she is a vampire, that's why he laughed when I brought the water, oh God, please, we have a child ... "
Raistan pushed him away, leaving that place on the resumption sofa with his family. He saw them hug and felt a sense of sadness and envy, because for centuries no one hugged him, no one felt anything for him if not terror, disgust, and sometimes even lust, but never, never love, compassion, desire for the purest kind. He would die alone and no one would, no one would even know, those people would have even breathed a sigh of relief, as blame them?
Furious with himself for having left to take that kind of thinking stood up abruptly, just a powerful crash of vertigo made him fall on his knees at the foot of his stunned hostages. The venom of werewolves, present in their saliva, was spreading very fast. That was the night of forgotten sensations ... his body, from the moment of transformation that occurred many years before, had only ever been very efficient war machine. No diseases, no old age and its infirmities, the only negative feeling that he knew, but had learned to control a long time, it was the thirst. Now, those waves of grief that overwhelms him, more and more intense and frequent, they were horrible, but ... interesting. He felt more alive now at the brink of death, which over the past 305 years, so many it could count as her creator had bite.

Jim Andrews, noting the distracted, tried a last desperate act of courage sprang from the couch, grabbed the vampire managed to crawl on the ground, ripping out an angry groan, but these are instantly collected, turned and lifted the shirt back on their feet with him .
"He's the liver, Mr. Andrews, you have to recognize. Come with me. "
In an instant, Jim found himself in front of the door. It was amazing the speed with which the vampire is moved, it had seemed to fly, handle and felt as if weightless. Raistan placed himself behind her and opened the glass door, "Grimulf! Want to have this beautiful little family on his conscience? You know I would not scruple, I do not ever ... "a volley of howls and growls welcomed his words. "Get away! Let me go and I will not do them no harm! Grimulf, where are you? You are too cowardly to let you out? "
" I'm here, Raistan. "An individual
huge gray suit made his way in the middle of the pack of wolves that infested the garden of giant Andrews. In light of the only streetlight in front of their house, the shining eyes of animals, such as red lanterns. "You know, we decided to surprise you. What, after all, a family, if infected freeing the world from your presence, we can save another hundred or a thousand? "
" WHAT? "Jim exclaimed in unison and the vampire.
"That's right. Sorry, Mr. Andrews, but she stumbled into one of the worst representatives of their abject species. For years, we give chase. Do not even imagine the crimes that have been stained with his host, so we decided that we are willing to do anything to end his life last night, even to sacrifice three of you. "
" But ... you can not, we have a child, not ... "
"I know very well, Mr. Andrews, and I am very sorry, but there is no other way. Raistan, for the respect I bear you, despite everything, I give you one hour. If you're lucky, our poison will kill you first, otherwise we will pick you and not the presence of these people to stop. It's all clear? "
" are bluffing. You're not really saying, it's never happened anything like that, you can not do it! "
" Why are you so warm? Within an hour you'll find out, right? "
"You'll have to get you, I will never leave."
"If so be, so it will be."
Raistan backed by dragging with it the poor Jim, he closed the door and let him ; go. He went back on the couch and hugged his wife, who wept in silence, and her daughter saw them with air more curious than frightened. How he wanted to be in place, unaware of everything ...

"It's true what that guy said?" Asked Alice, after a few moment.
"About what?"
"on her. On what he did. "
" I'm a vampire, Mrs. Andrews, and only in the film vampires can decide to be good. The goodness can not live with our power, we are murderers, that's all. "
" Perhaps you can decide who to kill, you can make a compromise, no? Between a rapist of children and the children themselves can choose the first, is it? "
" You want to know how I choose my victims, right? Absolutely necessary, I'm afraid. I'm not an executioner, I am a predator. "
" Yes, but it is not an animal. It has intelligence, culture, feelings, it is possible that these factors do not in any way influence his choices,'ll never believe it. Even a lion chooses the weak element of the herd of zebras. You want me to believe that he does? "
" Yes, I do not, sorry to disappoint you. "
'Balle'.
Raistan smiled weakly and closed his eyes:" She's just a nice type, there is what to say. "
" And now? ... That will leave those things come here and kill us too, or think of something? "
The vampire seemed to be unconscious. His head fell on his shoulder constantly and you could tell he was making an enormous effort to maintain a presence.
"Answer me, please ... what is wrong with going to do?"
Alice saw the vampire's eyes rolled back and jumped up from the couch, taking him by the shoulders and shaking him firmly: " Not yet, there is no try ... "
"Alice" Jim whispered, "that the hostages are usually happy when their captor pulls the bucket, what the hell are you doing, let him lose, we go out of here!"
"You ... you're right Jim, I'm sorry Let's go. "
The vampire reached out a hand like lightning and grabbed Alice's arm, tearing a scream.
"Not yet. You must help me. "His face was beaded with tiny droplets of red and Alice touched with fingers, amazed. He thought it looked like a beautiful statue which an artist a bit ' bizarre wanted to add some disturbing details: eyes, angelic hair, transparent skin and the teeth of hell.

"You're sweating blood ..."
"So it is, for those of my race. It becomes a problem when you want to wear light-colored clothing. Now he must get a flammable liquid, such as alcohol or gasoline and a lighter. "
" Why? What you gonna do? You do not want to set fire to the house! "
" No ... I want to neutralize the poison of werewolves. "
Jim jumped as if he had been bitten by a wasp, "Werewolf?! Those are werewolves out there? Oh, Lord, the vampires were not enough ... "
" What are the cantropi, Dad? "Ellie said with a tired voice, the girl began to succumb to drowsiness.
"No, love, are the beasts that are bad in our garden."
"They'll always be there?"
"I hope not, Ellie. You try to sleep now, you'll see that when you wake up will be gone. "
" Okay ... I can sleep here with you? "
" Just for tonight, young lady. "
" Yes, just for tonight. Good night mom, dad goodnight ... goodnight, Lord White. "
" Good night, Ellie ... "said the vampire in a whisper.
All were silent for a moment, each lost in thought. Alice looked furtively Raistan and saw that the baby was staring with a look of sadness.
"It's our whole life."
"I know. I can hear clearly. It is nice to have someone ... or something to live for. "
" You do not have it? "
" No. Ever had. I told you, I'm a damn selfish. I must have quell'alcol and quell'accendino, Mrs. Andrews. Now. "
" Okay, but I have not yet figured out what he wants to do. "
" I want to cauterize wounds. "
" I mean ... wants to set fire to the whole upper part of his body? "
" The idea is more or less that, yes. "
" You is crazy! If you do not die from the poison, we think the burns, "
" When I tell her, she will stop .... "Again
stunned silence from the humans.
"I realize I put myself in a position of disadvantage, you may decide not to do it and I continue to burn, but must not forget that I can read minds. If scoverò this intention, she will not hesitate to take it with me. "
Alice jumped up, furious:" There is no need to continue to threaten, I never thought of letting someone burned alive in my living room, "
" Well, better that way. I prefer to always put the record straight. "
vampire's face was dripping sweat already bloodied quell'inquietante. Alice got up and left the room to get what he asked.
"I can take the girl upstairs? I guess that will not be a good show "asked Jim.
"Go. I want her back here in five minutes. "
" Thank you. ... It sure what that is? "
"No. But it's the last thing that remains to be groped. "

This is the first appearance of Raistan in my mind, girls. For days, the image of the vampire hurt, sad, fallen into a house in search of human help, has bewitched my mind, forcing me to sit down and write. Did not do it for a long time, but the result made me fall in love with him and made me want to know more myself. It 's inevitable that some of the things that are contrary to what is told later in the books, but at this stage I did not know anything about him and passed his long life, so forgive me. I hope you enjoyed the story and it has further approached him and his world, a place I visited with passion and whose return still with great pleasure, to hear him tell the final part of his story. For me it's like home. I hope it will become for you. Thank
Claudietta - again - for me the space for his dedication and passion for my Dutch.

LUCIA G.


The very first time I was right Raistan of this 16-page short story - will post the second and final part tomorrow - and the first image that is came to mind while reading the description of this being pale, tall, long blonde hair and blue eyes sparkle with a crimson center - was that of Prince Nuada in Hellboy. Only later, after reading the first novel, a portrait of me Raistan he specialized in the head. In this story I was struck Raistan of alienation from his strange behavior and his animal injured. But we can already see, on one side, his ferocity and his impudence, the other his incredible tenderness.
Lucia and I have decided that
The Visitor deserved to be shared with anyone and here it is.
