CHAPTER 5
(**note** I know vampire is spelling with an 'i' but in this story, it's different... you'll find out why later in the story 
)
 
"Why did you do such a thing?" One hisses, red markings creeping up the side of its clad-black drapery. Its face was partially hidden by shadows, the other half featured vampyre-white skin and solid black messy and matted hair, complimenting his needle sharp, endless blood red pools for eyes.
"No, this has to be some kind of mistake..." I whisper, eyeing the blade. 
"No mistake!" One beside him thunders. "Truth! Admit, or die!"
"You're wrong!" I yell. His nails fix into the soft flesh around my throat, his eyes freezing my blood. He leans close to my face. "What was that, sweetheart?" He taunts. A putrid scent is flying off of him, and it seems familiar. I can only watch him, my breathing very quiet. Careful not to make any sudden movements, I speak again. "You're... wrong..."
"Liar!" He snarls, letting go of me, and throwing the knife into the wall where I had been suspended. It landed about an inch from my face. "Lies, sweetheart. Lies." He turns, and walks away, his drones following suit.
I look over at the blade, dotted with the fingerprints. A rank, damp scent wafts from the blade.
 
It's the exact same scent as the one the cloaked figure had.
