“Don’t worry I just finished the last batch of them” Roddrick says as he gets up and shakes his arm.
“We have a little problem” Joe says “Dr. Albert is refusing to speak what do you want to do?”
“I think I should speak to our friend Dr. Albert”
They exit the small room and head down a long hallway. The sounds of a crowd can be heard nearby but the hallway remained empty. They turn into another room this one with a sink and counter. Roddrick first turns first to Anna who crawled into a corner as soon as he entered. She stares at his eyes and licks her lips very seductively. Roddrick stare back as if lost in a trance. His head starts to move as if listen to some very beautiful music. Joe gives him a nudge in the shoulder and he snaps out of it.”
“Roddrick Focus.” Joe says as he as hits him again. Joe shots a look of distrust to Anna who shoots him back an evil stare of her own.
“I’m….I’m sorry it. It won’t happen again”
Roddrick turns to Albert King. Dr Albert King sat on the ground with his head down. He was a older man around the ages of 55 to 60. His brown and gray beard had a little bit of dry blood from a cut on his lip. He was wearing a science coat and had handcuffs on his hands and his feet. He was breathing very heavily.
“Albert.” Roddrick said standing over him “Albert.” He called his name but Albert didn’t move. “Albert how do I get them to feed?” He said but Albert didn’t answer. He just sat there staring at the ground. Roddrick squats down to Albert’s level. “Albert. I am running out of time” He calls again this time with a fiercer sound in his voice.
“Albert Answer me!” he says with a temper. Albert lifts his head up and puts his eyes on to Roddrick’s.
“What do you want, Demon?” Albert says with distaste
Roddrick hisses toward his remark
“Albert, we are inches away from finishing this thing now I’m going to need some fucking cooperation from you ok?”
Roddrick stares him right back into his eyes.
“Fuck you” Albert says with fire behind his voice. Roddrick lifts up his hand
“Albert, you tell me how to make them feed”
“Now why would I tell you that? I have the one thing that is out of your hands and I don’t mind dieing so you don’t have it” Albert gives a laugh at Roddrick’s anger. Roddrick and backhands Albert so hard that blood flies out of his mouth. Albert’s head bangs against the tile. He lets out another laugh and spits blood right into Roddrick’s face. Roddrick wipes the blood off his face and licks it. Roddrick smiled back at Albert.
“Very well Dr.King you want to play hardball very well” Roddrick gets up and exits the room. Moments later he returns with several Wayne State Police holding several Wayne state students. The students were handcuffed and had duck tape covering their hands and wrapped around their feet. Students had two cops holding them. Their eyes screamed for their mouths could not.
“Dr. Albert we are going to play hardball.” He looks at the students and then looks at Albert. “Are you ready to play that game? Albert instantly turned serious. He hesitates but asks the question
“What do you plan to do Roddrick? Kill a couple of kids” Roddrick pulls out a Switchblade and motions for a cop to bring one of the students in front of Albert. It was a girl with brunette hair. Roddrick rips the tape off of her lips. She screams
“WHAT THE FUCK HELP ME SOMEBODY FUCKIN…”
Roddrick{shh}grabs{shh} her mouth{shhh} so tight that she can barely move her lips. {Shhhut up}
“Why don’t you just shut up and listen” Roddrick kneels down beside her and starts to whisper. “These are cops they aren’t going to let any harm come to you. Ok? So don’t panic. You’ll be back at your place in no time.” Her eyes jot from one cop to another. Roddrick slowly lets go of her mouth. She doesn’t shout she just starts breathing really hard.
“What’s your name?” Roddrick asks her. At first she says nothing. ‘She might be in shock’ Roddrick thought but soon she detached her lower lip from her top one and began to speak.
“Sam. My name is Sam” Tears start to fall from her cheek “wh…why am I held...”
“Sam…” Roddrick interrupts as he shows her the knife “I want you to ask my friend Albert how do you make them feed
“Ho..w…how…how…do you …make them feed?” She asked as tears flowed from her face to her red sweater.
Albert ignores her and keeps looking at Roddrick”
“Roddrick, please. Just let her go. Let them all go”
Roddrick covers Sam’s mouth and gives an evil smile toward Albert
“Now we are going to start playing that game. I am going to give you 5 seconds to answer the question to what I want to hear or Sam here will die” Sam instantly starts kicking and screaming but Roddrick holds her mouth so tight that she can’t move. Roddrick wickedly smiles.
“I DON’T KNOW ANY-”
“5”
“-THING ON HOW TO FEED THEM I PROMISE. PLEASE JUST LET THE GIRL GO RODDRICK.” Albert screams but no one moves. Students watch in horror screaming in their duct tape.
“4. Albert did you let me go when you experimented on me. Did you let Anna go? 3 you didn’t even let Joe go” Tears run down Sam’s face. A cop falls to the ground they all turn and look at him. Joe walks over to him, removes his helmet. His face looked dried out and his veins were very visible. Joe touched his neck and then shakes his head towards Roddrick. Roddrick shakes his head as he unzips his jacket and hands to Joe. Underneath his jacket Roddrick had a white undershirt.
“Joe, can you take my jacket into the hallway? I have a feeling this is going to get messy.” As soon as Roddrick takes his hand over Sam’s mouth she screams as loud as she can. Roddrick smacks her and put his hand on her mouth raising her head up making her neck very visible. “Ok Albert” Joe leaves making sure he shuts the door tight {SLAM}“2. Tell me Albert, Tell me now!”
“I just…I don’t…I don’t know please. I am telling the truth I never got that far in the research I got close but they wouldn’t allow me to test I promise I’m telling the truth”
“Albert you are lying I know you are lying because you are a fucking liar Albert. This is your work your fucking life’s work and you are fucking telling me you don’t have a fucking clue on how it fucking works.” Albert doesn’t say anything “wow. I am really fucking amazed. 1”
“NO PLEASE I’LL TELL YOU JUST STOP IT TH...THIS IS MADDNESS” Roddrick give a healthy laugh
“Oh Albert you make me laugh sometimes.” Roddrick cut Sam’s neck from left to right. The blood flies all over Dr Albert. Students shake and screaming horror. But their yells go unnoticed, as Roddrick’s laugh is the only thing heard in the room. Blood flood towards Anna in her corner. She hesitates but dips her finger into the blood and putting it in her mouth as if it was a hidden joy of pleasure.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Crowds of people push to get in of Matthaei’s gym. Students were being handed cans and cans of Venom. Among the student were three pikes dressed from head to toe allowing no sun to hit their skin. Once out of the light Marcus pulls off his hood and the sweater he had covering his face. Charlie takes off his non-matching right-handed gloves and Jamie takes his Jacket off of his head. They move with the crowd and find seats next to Chuk, Gutterson, Zach, Danny, and Robert.
“Oh so you guys made it” Chuk says to them
“Yeah….um” Marcus tries to think of what to say. “We got into some shit back at…”
Chuk interrupts “What the fuck is wrong with your teeth, Marcus?”
They all look at Marcus. “Nuffin’. Its nuffin’ to worry bout.” Marcus covers his fangs up with his lips. A cop comes by and drops off venoms to every student. Cans of venom go in the hands of Marcus, Jayme and Charlie.
“Well my baby was right about something” Charlie says as he unfolds the letter out of his pocket.
“What do you mean your baby? I’m telling you that girl wants me” Jayme says to Charlie. They bicker back and forth as Marcus looks down at his can of Venom. The word ‘Venom’ had fangs on it too. It looked quite appropriate for the situation they were in. he looked at the top of the can ‘Piercing energy that strikes back’ was written on it. Chuk snatches it out of his hands out of the blue.
“You don’t want that” Chuk says as he opens it up and chugs a bunch of it right in front of Marcus’s face.
“Chuk I don’t think you should drink that” Marcus says with a worried look
“Why not” Robert throws himself in the conversation. “It tastes pretty good to me.”
“I just have a feeling. That’s all” Marcus says using his hand to cover his mouth.
Charlie bumps Marcus again
“Hey where do you think Anna is?” He asks
“I don’t know” Marcus answers “keep your eyes out. I’m sure we will find her, I ‘m just not sure we want too.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Albert sat with his head down. He was soaked head to toe in blood. He looks up at Roddrick. His eyes were puffy and red.
“Well?” Roddrick says to him
“I think I’m going to puke” Albert puts his head down but Roddrick holds it up.
“Take it easy Albert, now you want to explain why that officer right there might have died suddenly”
Albert breaths deep then push the air out hard “He died of starvation”
“OoO do explain. What was he hungry for?”
“Blood. Human blood. The Virus mixed with your blood caused his body to seek out human body so it feed on his own.”
Roddrick looks down at the dead cop he looked as if he was sucked from the inside out. Albert sounded as if he was telling the truth.
“How do I feed them Albert? Or can they feed themselves”
“Will you let me live and go home?. I want to go home to my family”
“Yes Albert You aren’t my target and I’ll reward you by being the only human left in this world but first you have to tell me.”
Albert takes a deep breath. “You…. you have to either tell them to drink blood or force feed them the first time. Once human blood has touched their skin the blood will grow stronger. The possibilities of what can become is endless. I’m not even sure what will happen… honest.”
“Well let’s test it out now you” he points to one of the Cops not holding a hostage. “Come here” Roddrick cups his hands and puts some of Sam’s blood in his hands “Now drink and tell me how you feel”
The officer obliged he took off his mask and drank from Roddrick’s hands.
“How do you feel?” Roddrick asked
“I feel great. Wonderful even I never tried drinking the blood taste pretty.” Roddrick tells him to shut up simply by putting his hand up. Roddrick looks in his mouth. Two of his top and two from his bottom teeth grew long and pointy as if they were Vampire fangs. Roddrick smiles to his delight.
“This is wonderful news just one more thing that I need from you Albert.”
Albert gives a grunt “ What are you talking about? I gave you everything”
“ No Albert you took from me a lot from me and I feel that to fully redeem yourself I need that gift that you have been making
“Who told you about it?”
“The Dean of course” Roddrick says with a sick smile
“Ah now its starts to make sense. I bet he supplied you with all of these cases of Venoms too probably just took it right out of the freakin student budget”
Roddrick jumps back on topic
“So…where is it?”
“It’s in the sliver briefcase” Albert nudges his shoulder near Anna. A sliver briefcase rested at her feet. Roddrick picks it up and opens it. There were several things inside. 2 Blood Samples, A bottle of white pills and blue canister marked ‘ELOHIM’. “What’s this?” Roddrick points towards the Bottle.
“My redemption. A cure for the Venom you have been giving everyone”
“Well let me make sure to destroy your last hope” Roddrick says as he throws the pills on the counter. “So this is it ELOHIM? What does that mean?”
“Elohim is another word for God. I thought it would fit with all the power you would potential gain from drinking it.”
Roddrick picks the canister up.
“Just one ingredient needed left, right?”
“That’s…. that’s is correct. I assume you also know what that ingredient is?” Albert asks
“Yes. Fresh blood [he pauses] from a dead vampire” Roddrick says
as soon as Anna heard this she jumps up from out her corner and side kicks a cop to the ground. Hostages fall with him. Roddrick stays calm. Anna goes to the opposite side of the door and get in to a pounce positions. Two cops drop their hostage and pull out their Billy clubs. The one on the right slings at her and misses. Anna jumps up and bits him hard in the neck. The cops body tremors as she holds him in his neck. When his body stops shaking she drops him. Blood rushes down her mouth. Roddrick smiles at her. Anna runs as fast as she can to the door. Just before she makes it to the door Roddrick grabs her by her hair and pulls her to the ground. She scratches his face four lines of blood appeared on his face then his body healed right in front of her eyes.
“Why don’t you just be a good girl” as he says this Roddrick pulls back his fist and fires a punch towards Anna’s face. Her black eye got slightly darker. The tile around her body cracked and the floor lowered a little with that hit. Her eyes closed. She looked unconscious.
“Un chuff him,” Roddrick says to one of the cops “Doc I think you can get ready to prep her for the procedure” Roddrick turns and leaves. He walks down the hallway listening to the crowd of college students ready to listen to his every word. Then he heard a sound. It sounded so familiar to him but he couldn’t be sure what it was. What was that sound he thought. Was it drums? no to light. Was it a plane? He thought. No. it was the sound of an animal maybe more then one. ‘You know’ he thought ‘it sounds like birds’. Yes. He thought birds.
Then out of nowhere a black bird comes out for the gym and then Roddrick realized what it was. A Bat
“Fuckin’ Bats”
The bats ‘in a matter of seconds’ came from everywhere the closets, the windows, and the vent shafts. And headed straight for Roddrick.. The Bats cut Roddrick all over his body. One came at his leg cutting his calf. He left to one knee as the bats flew around him as if his was there next snack.
“You having [Ow]. Fun Anna”
Anna came out from down the hall. She looked toward Roddrick flopped her hair over her newly blackened eye and ran in the opposite direction. Roddrick healed his leg and got back up after Anna. The bats peck at him but continued to move. He grabs one of the bats in his hand and squeezes as tight as he can until the bat explodes in his hand. He grab another and ripped off its wings.
“Anna you are starting to act like a bitch you know that” Roddrick yelled down the halls. Joe comes out of the gym door with Roddrick’s Jacket in hand.
“Hey I don’t think they will wait much longer you are going to have too” he looks at the bats flying above Roddrick’s head. He starts to laugh, “ I take it Anna is pissed at you?”
“Yes the Dean was right she is going to need to die. Sucks to be her, but I doubt she gets far its noon the sun ‘s high. Um…do me a favor…go and check on Albert I’m sure the students will be in my control by now.”
They depart in separate directions. Roddrick tries to get in the gym without letting any off the bats in but a few manage to seek past him. They fly in every now and then and bit at Roddrick’s skin. Ex-Student president Jake Kinde is on the gym stage chatting with some of his friends off stage
“…Yeah and these fucking drinks appeared like everywhere. I mean I seen them at the student center, Ugl I even saw some in State Hall. But hey I mean they do taste pretty good right huh?” Jake laughs with his friends
Roddrick taps him on his shoulder “its time Jake”
“Oh yeah sorry about that I..” Jake turns toward the crowd and grabs the mic
“OK EVERYBODY” the crowd screams and shouts “THE MAN YOU HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR IS HERE.HERE TO CHANGE THE WAY WE SEE COLLEGE FOREVER FROM VENOM ENERGY HERE IS RODDRICK!”
The crowd screams and shouts more then they should have for a person they didn’t know ‘Maybe they had heard about the scholarships’ Chuk thought. Roddrick took the mic as Jake took his seat in the audience. Roddrick looked at the crowd they all stared back at him cheering him on.
“RODDRICK, RODDRICK” the crowd roared
Roddrick put his hand up to silence the crowd they all shut their mouth as quick as they can. Chuk looks around from right to left “ what the…what the hell is going on?” he says
“Hello everyone, my name is Roddrick but you can call me Rod.” The crowd hung on his every word
Roddrick…Hey that’s the guy” Marcus and Chuk say together.
“What do you mean that’s the guy?” Marcus asks Chuk
“That’s the guy who dropped off cases of Venom and promised everyone a scholarship and shit what did you mean by that guy”
“Oh uh…. um I meant…” Charlie interrupts him before he can explain himself.” Oh My God there she is, There she is” Anna was in the back of the gym scanning the crowd. She sees Charlie waving for her to come over but she waves for them to come to her. Marcus, Charlie and Jayme all sneak to the back to her. They all go into the hallway. Anna starts talking really fast
“ You have to get out off here.” Anna kisses each of them on the cheek
“What are you talking about? We are here to save you” Charlie says
“I just. Roddrick he will kill me. Oh shit he will kill you too. I can’t let him know that I turned you not now”
Anna turns around making sure no one shows up. Jayme gets a look at her eye “hey what happen to your eye” She doesn’t say anything “Did you get hit or something”
“Did Roddrick hit you?” Charlie asked with anger
Anna looked up at him “will you do anything for me?” she asked
“Anything” Charlie and Jayme say together. Marcus sort of stands back and watches hoping he can be able to put pieces together. Anna puts her arms around Jayme and kisses him then kisses Charlie
“I want you to kill Roddrick” Anna whispers in both of their ears. Without questioning Charlie and Jayme march down the dark hallway. Marcus with a puzzled look on his face points to Charlie and Jayme and asks, “ What did you just do to them”
“It’s a Woman’s touch I say. Some Female vampires have been able to put like a love curse on human men it makes them easier to control when they are vampires Sorry I didn’t woo you”
“Are they really going to kill him?”
“They are going to try quickly who can I give this too” She holds out a bottle of White pills “ I need it to go to someone who hasn’t drank any Venom at all”
“I actually think I know someone I haven’t seen him drink much at all. Ever really” Marcus says as he starts running.
“…Are you tired of this school being just a commuter school?” Roddrick says and the crowd responds together “YES”
“Are you tired of paying all your money and not seeing that money bounce back on your campus?”
“YES”
“Do you just want to quit school and just fuckin’ party
“YES” they scream louder then ever.
“What!?!” Chuk says, “ This is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard.
“Are you with me? To do my dastardly deeds, to make Wayne state pay for all that its done?”
“YES” the Crowd screams
“Ok I’m going to assume that’s my clue” Chuk grabs Venom and jumps over the chairs behind him and heads for the exit.
“Then you are a part of…’” Before he could finish a metal folding chair hits him in the head. Roddrick stops what he is saying and turns to where the flying chair came from.
“I hear you like hitting women,[pause] Bitch” Charlie says from the side of the gym. The Crowd boos, Ahhs, and laughs. Roddrick puts his index finger in the air and the gym becomes so silent you could hear a pin drop.
“Everyone just chill, I have a problem to take care off” Roddrick says to the crowd. They instantly talk amongst themselves but in a chill form not too loud but not to quite. Bats fly and scratch Roddrick face but it heals seconds after the cut. He walks over to Charlie and Jayme. A cop beats Roddrick to them but Roddrick tells him ‘its ok’ Roddrick walks right up to the two.
“So do you fellas have a death wish I can help you fill out? What is it? Parents never loved yah? Flunked another one of your Gen eds? Or is it just that the last time you fuckers got any ass was when your finger’s slipped through the toilet paper”
“We get plenty as ass thank you” Charlie says as he head butts Roddrick.
Roddrick falls down.
“Yeah and we {Bam} don’t like it{Bam} when you fucking{Bam} hit our girlfriend ok?” Jayme kicks him in the stomach and then twice in the head. Roddrick’s body laid on the ground “Capiche?” Jayme says as he kicks him in the head one more time
“Yes I do understand” Roddrick says as he gets up He cracks his neck and looks at Charlie then to Jayme. “You know I like you boys you got balls but unfortunately you need more then balls to play this game”
Roddrick punches Jayme so hard that he falls right on the ground. Charlie throws a punch with his left hand but Roddrick moves out of the way and Charlie falls on to the gym stage. The crowd boos him and the crowd cheers as Roddrick enters the gym he puts his thumb up then down then back up. The crowd agrees, thumbs down. The crowd filled with all types of students held their Venoms up in the air and put their thumbs down as if they were in a classic coliseum battle. Roddrick grabs Charlie by the legs. Charlie goes for anything and kicks Roddrick in his face.
“Bad move there kid”
Roddrick throws Charlie at Jayme. The crowd cheers and shouts. Roddrick puts his hand up again “just a little bit more time ill be right back”
Roddrick grabs Jayme’s arm
“I got to admit you boy have a lot of balls I like that.” he starts to twist Jayme’s arm slightly
“Now when you boys were talking about me hitting your girlfriend you guys weren’t talking about my Anna where you?”
“AHHHHHH” Jayme screams Roddrick stops twisting “Fuck you” Jayme shouts. Charlie moans and tries crawling over to a wall. Roddrick kicks him in his side.
“Answer Me,” Roddrick demands
“I AM GOING TO FUCKIN’ KILL YOU” Jayme screams as Roddrick twists his arms so hard that you can hear the bones break. Roddrick looks at Jayme’ mouth
“Open you mouth”
“Fuck you” Jayme says
Roddrick twists his arm completely around Jayme screams so loud that he could be heard outside of the building. Roddrick eyes popped out. ‘Fangs’ he knew they couldn’t be from the Venom the cops fangs where much smaller and plus everyone who drank venom would listen to his every word right? That would mean only one thing. These two were bitten by….
“ANNA JAYME AND CHARLIE IN TROUBLE I …I…I HAVE TO GO” Marcus yelled to Anna as he ran to the other side of the gym. He had plan on a fight but a little fight little scratches and then we would call it a night. He didn’t expect to see his two roommates lying on the ground. Roddrick put his foot on the back of Charlie’s head and pulled both of his arms. Charlie screamed into the tile.
“You know what I did to every Vampire I meet besides Anna….I killed them…and not the boring ways of using garlic or a stake in the heart. I maid them weak to the point where they needed human blood to survive and then I just let then die which is what ill do to one of you the other will get a much, much, more quicker…”
Marcus comes out of nowhere and tackles Roddrick to the ground. Marcus with out even thinking or going on a fight of love throws a devastating blow after blow to Roddrick. Roddrick vampire blood spills out. {Bam,Bam,Bam.} His punches sounded like an African drum. Marcus’s body freezes up. He stops hitting Roddrick to breath. He looks over to Jayme and Charlie his vision is blurry.
“’Bout fucking time you showed up” Jayme said
“Yeah…bitch” Charlie adds motionless on the ground.
Marcus looks down at Roddrick who is cover in debris and blood. Roddrick opens one of his eyes then the other. He gets up and pushes Marcus over. Marcus just falls over to the ground. Roddrick laughs
“ fuckin’ young Kats, always think they know a thing or too. Word of advise pee brains. You need fucking blood to do anything. Welcome to the vampire world. I bet you fucks only ate one person. You shared it too. Didn’t you?”
Roddrick shakes his head and goes over to Marcus. Marcus’s eyes were looking past Roddrick. His tongue was sticking in and out of his mouth.
“I know you can’t says much but I know you can hear me. What you are going through is called Vamp –1 Shock. Its what happens when you exert your body without enough blood flowing through you. I ‘ll give you that one for free because you don’t hit like a pussy like your friends here.” Roddrick shakes the pieces of tile out of his Fohawk. His face heals in seconds from Marcus’s punches “JOE” he screams
Joe came out of Albert’s room right to Roddrick.
“Shit”
“Shit is right Anna has been a little fucking whore I let her go to one bar night and this is what happens.”
Bats fly from everywhere to Joe and Roddrick. They take cover blocking their eyes. ANNA” Roddrick screams. The bats go straight for their eyes nothing else. Joe runs back inside of the room. The bats leave. Roddrick turns around quickly Jayme and Charlie remained where they where but Marcus was gone.
“hmm fine Anna go, go. Just a nitch in the program that’s all” Roddrick goes to a cop outside of the gym.
“I want you to tell all the cops that no one enters or exits this building without my permission ok?” the officer nods and runs to report. Joe comes out of the room slowly
“Are they gone?” he asks
“Yeah she is gone”
“I have got some bad news”
“What?”
“She also stole the pills”
Roddrick lets out a few well choiced words before stopping when his phone rings
“Hello” Roddrick says
“Is everything going to plan” says the man on the phone
“Yes Albert agreed to do the process, and the student are being excellent slaves
“So the Venom helped?”
“Yes, yes it helped a lot yes sir”
“Remember I didn’t set you lose so you could just go around dillydallying when nightfall hits I want it to be hell on wheels you got that?”
“Yes sir I got that no problem”
A phone in the student center hangs up. A Man in a bowtie leans back and smiles
“I guess I should start planning my Vacation”
