Alive

I had serious writers block when I wrote it...

Althea walking her way up to the old mansion type house she lived in when she tripped – unusual for a vampire, usual for her. She was getting up when she heard her footsteps near her. “Thats not in your usual diet” the approaching Arella said in her perfect, musical voice.

 

Althea looked up at her and glared as the beaten and fairly bloody lump that was a human moved in her arms. "What...where...who are you?" Brenna asked still dazzed and confused. “My names Althea” Althea said quickly. “And thats Arella” she said as she pointed out the dazzling blond beauty beside her.

 

 

 

Arella's eyed went wide from shock. “Althea! YOU DIDN'T EVEN KILL HER!!" Arella shouted astounded. "That's just plain rude!" Then turning to the beaten human that was in fact alive she smiled.

"Um hi as she said, I'm Arella...no need to be alarmed we were talking about my goldfish. Althea here... uh flushed her without her even being dead... um yeah. Rude right?" Arella said quickly.

"What a lame attempt at a cover up!" She thought. Althea looked at Arella with an expression a mix of utter horror and 'don't blame this on me!'.

 

Althea took her next actions into serious consideration. Should she take the human under her wing, her roommates might try to have their way with her. On the other hand, she couldn't leave her out here alone in the dark.

 

"Um... would you like to come inside? I'll clean you up and cook you dinner..." Arella glanced back at Althea and coughed a fake cough. "I um need to go get water. Good luck with your human." Arella said and she sprinted at a human pace back to the house. Once she hit the door step her pace tripled to a vampire jog up the stairs and into Mathew's room."We need your help." She panicked. "...and I was right Althea totally tripped, only its complicated. Just come."

I've read the previous chapters and I'm still trying to understand Althea's motives. I have it now that she is a bit clumsy for a vampire which is an interesting twist. None of that, though, comes out in the beginning. I also am not clear on why Arella cares what Brenna thinks. Brenna is, after all, considered food.

This chapter, to me, can be much longer and more developed. Actually, I feel there is much to this story that should be developed before now.
