the beginning......yeah it's kinda badly written

Chapter One

 

I can’t remember much from the last time I knew my parents were alive.  We were driving home from one of my late night basketball games out of town. I was sleeping in the backseat, mom was singing along to the radio, and dad was holding her hand.  What dad didn’t know was this area was a high deer population, and he found out the hard way.  A deer jumped in front of the car.  Dad swerved, lost control, and we rolled down the hill. 

           

I don’t know how long the car rolled for, because shortly after it started rolling, I found myself thrown through the window and landing on the cold ground.  Pain was screaming through my entire body, I definitely had broken something, but all I could see was blood, and the car rolled until a tree stopped it. I had no strength to scream, I was in too much pain to.  I closed my eyes, hoping this would be just a dream, but when I opened them up again, someone was standing over me, someone who wasn’t there ten seconds ago.  He cradled me and pulled me up off the ground.  He was pale, with black hair and indefinable eyes.  All I know is he was taking me away, fast.

 

Soon after being rescued, I was lying in a bed. I couldn’t open my eyes, but I could hear everything going on around me.  People kept poking me and leaving and coming back and then leaving again, I still wasn’t quite sure where I was.  The man who had rescued me seemed to be no where around, until I heard him talking.

“Her parents are dead.  She was thrown from the car and lost a lot of blood.” His voice was deep, yet beautiful at the same time.  Someone walked over to me and placed something on my nose.  Air was rushing from it, and it made breathing easier.  I wish I could move, I wanted to know who the man who had rescued me was, but most of all, I wanted to know where I was, and what had happened. 

 

I wasn’t quite sure how long I had been lying there.  I don’t know who came to see me, if anyone came to see me.  There was only one person I really wanted to hear, my older brother.  He hadn’t been in the car with us during the accident; I needed to hear his voice.  We had always had a close relationship, and we both had been very close to our parents, now all we had were each other. Being under aged, my brother and I would both have to live with another family member, well, my brother will have to live with another family member, because according to the person who’s been poking me so many times,

“She’s not going to make it.” he said to someone else.  I finally put the pieces together where I was, I was in a hospital.  The people who had been poking me, they had been the doctors, which also explain the air mask they put on my nose, and all the needles sticking into me.

“Do you think I could have some time alone with her?” my rescuer said.  Why did he want to be alone with me? I was going to be dead soon, and he didn’t know me. I heard feet moving both away and towards me.  The door shut and I felt my rescuer standing next to me.  His breath was hitting my neck, and if I opened my eyes, I could swear he would only be a couple inches from my face.

“You’re not going to die, Cassidy,” How did he know my name? “I’m going to save you; you’re going to join me.” I felt him move closer to my neck, and then pain.  Sharp fangs had gone into my neck and I felt blood dripping from it.  The fangs just sat in my neck, nothing being sucked from it.  He pulled away and ran his tongue over where he had just bitten.  My blood was boiling and pain ran through my body.  If I could move I would be twitching and spazing everywhere.  It only took me a few seconds after the bite to realize who my rescuer really was.  A vampire.
