Lab time
Lab under the Blue Ridge
“Do you have any idea who the hell you have kidnapped? This could ruin everything on top of that I had to start the turn with her before I had even told her what was going on. Those idiots will act as blood snacks for her, if they hadn’t over done the drugs she would have lived through all this. As it is I am thinking of having you replaced.” Draven screamed at the man standing by the van.
The man’s eyes bulged he glared at me like I was nothing more than a snake on the ground. Well two could do that, but my stare might just kill him. I did notice that the woman…what was her name again? I think it was Violet or some flower name.
“Mr. DeFleaux if you would please let me explain. She is the perfect subject for our Bio-Mechanical ImunoEngineering. We have never had a subject that has such a deep love for the vampire that has turned her…” The doctor had no idea what to do. He was lost.
“If you want to keep your life I would suggest that you not finish what you where saying. She has never said she loved me. I might have a deep love for her but we have much bigger problems.” Draven spoke to the man like he was a child.
They took Natalia to another room to try lessen her pain through the turn. I growled at the little weasel of a doctor that tried to touch her. I could hear his thoughts about touching Natalia. I finally came to my senses allowing the female doctor to take her to a room.
“Mr. DeFleaux would you like to go sit with her, we put her into a coma of sorts to stop the thrashing but it doesn’t hold long because of the turn. If you want to be there for her I will have a chair brought in.” Eylsium spoke to him in a hushed tone.
I raised my eye brows looking at the woman again. She was thin with longish blonde hair. Her hazel eyes showed a knowledge that the man didn’t seem to have. I would say she was the one that really ran the place. If I had to kill the man I would have someone to run the lab.
“Show me the way. Sorry I forgot your name.” I told her with a sigh.
I could hear the man getting pissed I was at my wits end. I really didn’t think when I did it; just one moment I was with the woman and the next I had the man sinking my fangs into his thin neck. I heard a gurgling sound and knew that he was leaking blood all over the floor and himself. One thing is for sure I didn’t bite men from the front; they didn’t want to see what was coming at them. A little suggestion and they thought a woman was behind them doing other things. After a few moments I dropped the man to the floor and went back to the woman.
“I would say you just got a promotion. I do hope you can do a better job of running this lab then he did. Please have someone clean that up…You were showing me to Natalia.” I told her with a smile, blood still on my face.
She nodded and moved away from the body of her ex-boss. As we went down the hall three men moved down the hall bowing. I was rather sure that they would take care of the body of the man. What was his name again? I really should be better at the names.
“My name is Elysium-Rose.”“ Elysium told him with a smile. For the first time in a long time she could breath knowing that she could get this lab in order.
What a lovely name for a beauty such as you. Please forgive the mess, I really didn’t mean to kill him. He just really pissed me off.” I told her pulling out a hankie to clean my face.
“Oh believe me I have no problem with you killing him. He didn’t know what the hell he was doing. Some of the women and men were so drugged that we couldn’t turn them right off. I know that you didn’t care for turning them, but it is the best way to learn what we are doing. I hope you will give us a chance with Natalia. She really is a perfect subject. I don’t want to hurt her, I have a feeling that she will be our break through.” she told him as they walked through the under ground.
As we talked we ended up at a room, that was much larger than most hospital rooms. I hated to see Natalia belted down to the bed, but she would hurt herself if we didn’t. She still had a good two hours before the turn was over; she wasn’t really old so there wasn’t much damage to be fixed. Entering the room I sighed and found the chair sitting down and not really knowing what to do.
“I am not sure I want any of this to touch her. I know that I have turned her and hope that she doesn’t hate me for it. Elysium do you really think it would help? Should we keep doing this?” I was losing the end goal of this whole thing.
It was such a stupid thing to ask, a mighty vampire asking a human if they should keep doing something. The truth was that I didn’t know any more. I wanted to turn Natalia; I wanted her to know everything. My age, and my true history, this was a mess…A rather large mess. I ran my hands through my brown hair noticing that it was still gelled back. I need to shower but didn’t want to leave her.
“Maybe instead of hunting and taking humans, we should ask other vampires if they have any humans that they would like to offer to be a subject. The bums and whores are not the type that vampires would really turn. I think that a clean human will take to the turn and the test much better. I have been trying for a month or more to get Garth to hear me.” Elysium told me with a weak smile.
“I think that is a great idea. Many of the older vampires would rather have a human they know than a whore or bum.” Why he hadn't thought of that was beyond him. Maybe it was party because he was under cover.
“I see, so we will discontinue the taking of humans. Do you by chance have a list or phone book for the other vampires sire?” Giving him respect was the biggest thing right now.
“I will see what I can come up with. At this point I will have to speak to the royals. How much do you know about me?” I asked
“Enough to know not to cross you. I should really be on my knees begging you to not kill me.”
