wasn't actually small, it valued 8GB as I calculated it. It was too perfect, and I liked it that way. Perfection was the first thing that I liked now that I was a vampire. Everything has to be systematic, in a perfect order...

CHAPTER 6
FIRST HUNTING

The water bubbled violently as it reached over the boiling point. The salt at the kettle base dissolved quickly with the intensifying heat. Its lid shook violently at the high pressure trapped inside. Moments later, the lid flew off and landed on the floor.

A man in his early 30's rushed in quickly, and grabbed a rag from the nearest shelf and pulled the kettle clear of the stove. Unfortunately, as he carried it, he stepped on the lid and slipped.

The water flew into the air and drenched the poor man. He howled in pain and rushed into the living room, in search for the first - aid kit. He found it on the upper shelf and rushed through the set of creams as he searched for the one with the ' For Burn ' sticker.

As he struggled to put the cream, pain bustled all over his body. After covering his wound, he entered his room and sat on the side of his bed. He shifted himself to a lying position and lay on the bed.

He winced as the hard wooden bed brushed against his scalded skin. He closed his eyes and prayed for the pain to go away. Sleep overtook him almost immediately.

……………

'Mummy! Daddy! Look at me...' cried a boy, as he playfully struck the water around him.

His parents looked at him and laughed heartily. The wife aimed a grape at the husband, but it missed. She aimed and threw again, and this time it landed in the mouth. The couple laughed as they leant forward to share a passionate kiss.

'Do you remember the first time I proposed to you?' the father asked.

'Of course, sweetheart. How could I ever forget my sweet George crying for my hand in marriage...'

'I did not,' the husband added, his face beetroot red.

'You're blushing, dear,'

'I'm not,'

'Yes, you are,'

The wife sighed and kissed her husband again. The son looked up at the strange noises, and groaned. Gross! Why did his parents have to kiss in public? Then, he turned.

There was nobody in sight. An aura of fear overwhelmed the boy. Why wasn't anybody there? All of a sudden, his feet grazed a rock. He felt a little blood come out, but he didn't bother.

He continued splashing about. The blood went with the slow waves that rippled the still waters. The blood was swept into a dark underwater cave that was hidden from everyone.

The blood slowly disappeared and bright yellow lights filled the darkness. But if you observed carefully, you'd notice that they were actually eyes. The boy swam calmly and stopped. He felt something tug at his feet. At first, he thought it might just be some kind of seaweed.

But when pain followed, he dipped his hand into the water and felt for his legs. A moist and scaly texture came in contact with his hand. Pain wrecked the hand and he withdrew it quickly.

He screamed when he found a fish with razor - sharp teeth hanging from the remnants of his mangled hands. His parents looked from afar, but they turned away. When the second scream came, the wife got up and leapt into the water, her maternal instincts went wild and she jumped without thinking, except for her beloved son.

Thus, she too became a was – claimed by the piranhas. The man wailed in agony as he watched the piranhas tore his wife and child into pieces. Suddenly, his hand phone rang. What a bad time for a call... He picked it up and his friend spoke .

'George, stay away from that secret beach you found. Reporters have reported that man – eating fishes dwell in an unknown cave -

The line was cut. The man threw the phone into the water. Why the fuck did they have to call when everything's already too late? Why?!!!! Tears dropped down the cheeks as the hot Sun razed the sky. Everything went dizzy and he passed out.

……………

I pushed the living room door open slowly and noticed the tubes of medical cream lying scattered all over the place. I could smell his scent from here. Gross! He didn't smell so inviting like he did just now.

But the thought of the red blood kept me focused, making sure that I'm not averting my plan. Maybe this was the Second Challenge. The man was still fast asleep. I had to wake him up but not directly.

I used my shield to levitate a plate and dropped it on purpose. He woke up, wearing a perplexed expression. I laughed and whizzed out of his sight. I whispered into the air, 'Close your eyes and Death will come quietly,'

'Who? Who – o – o is there?' asked the man.

I stepped in front of him...


CHAPTER 7
TELEPORTATION
'We have to go to Egypt,' I shouted as soon as I reappeared.

'What did you see inside the Golden Diamond?' asked Jack in an annoyed tone.

'And most importantly, why can't I read your mind anymore?' Jacque questioned, gesturing me but facing Jack.

'Our newborn here has learnt to control his power...' sighed Rose.

'Unfortunately, I have to agree with Rose. Yes, Christopher has learnt the secret of his powers. But there is one thing he is yet aware of. The matter we discussed earlier,'

'If you're regarding the knowledge of the First Holocaust, I know them all,' I bustled in on their conversation.

'Of course it has to do with the Holocaust. Only this is the one
