Blood Eclipse:
Simone's Notes:
It is difficult to make a single, definitive description of the folkloric vampire, though there are several elements common to many European legends. Vampires were usually reported as bloated in appearance, and ruddy, purplish, or dark in color; these characteristics were often attributed to the recent drinking of blood. Indeed, blood was often seen seeping from the mouth and nose when one was seen in its shroud or coffin and its left eye was often open. It would be clad in the linen shroud it was buried in, and its teeth, hair, and nails may have grown somewhat, though in general fangs were not a feature.
The hunger for blood is alive again.
The spring is drawing it out of them.
They are in heat.
Time to kill some pets.
But, not yet just.
Hold out for one more night.
Some of them can't do that.
"When are we going to make more kills?" they asked.
It's all killing them.
She smiles and licks her lips at them.
"At midnight," she tells them.
The hours are counting down.
They are getting ready.
The scent is drawing them closer.
Heartbeats race all the way up to their ears.
Almost like music.
They could all dance to it.
Rising to the surface.
Rising to the surface.
Click. Click. Click.
It's soft at first.
But, not anymore.
No one can turn it off.
They can't ignore it anymore.
The people want to run away from it.
But yet, they are running towards their fate.
The Fallen Ones are taking it all in.
They feast upon the potential victims in the coming day of the eclipse.
The devil is on its way on horseback.
Everyone will be counting down to destruction.
Her eyes are open.
She has opened up Hell's gates.
The clock has stuck for the hour of the highest stage of this Unholy War.
Next Night
Next Time: The Fallen Ones begin their hunt for old, favorite, and new pets in the night.
