Wind flew past once again. The forest, the beach, and the quiet condensed behind. Light On by David Cook blasted in the Miata’s speakers. More forests surrounded the small car.
“Let’s go hunting.” I suggested, knowing she would abide to say yes.
“Sure, but let’s make sure no one is around…” I parked the car on the side, closest to the forest. Zoe closed her eyes. “No one.” She smiled then she zoomed into the forest.

The elk’s silence retreat into death as its body followed suit. Warm liquid flowed evenly in my mouth and my eyes adjusted. As soon as I was sure the blood was dried, I carried the dried carcass into the deep forest. Zoe’s fill, next to it.
“Now…” She smiled then her facial expression drew blank.
“What?” Then I smelled it. Vampires. I looked around, yet to see anything.
“Let’s get out of here… this might be there territory.” We ran and jumped into the car.
“It can’t be. There scent didn’t show up on any trace of the forest except when the wind blew. It wasn’t there’s… They must be passing by.” I stated, speeding the car down the road.
“What did it smell like to you?” She asked. I thought back. Really just a sweet scent, just like any vampires, except a distinct burning smell. “Chancellor, did you smell the same thing as me?” She put her hand on my arm and I smelled the scent. Sweet and burned intertwined.
“Yes…” I continued to look ahead.
“Obviously not from around here.”
“Is anyone?”
“You know what I mean, Chance.” She rolled her eyes. She was right. The distinct smell couldn’t have been from here…
“Then who?
“I don’t know. I’ve never smelled something quite like it…”
“Me either.” I tightened my hands on the steering wheel and pondered my thoughts. Are these the new threats?
