Megan dropped the human and pushed him into the bushes, she wiped her lips and sighed. She hated to kill humans but she hadn't eaten in a while. She wiped off the blood and started walking when she smelt someone...another vampire. She smelt weak. Megan kept walkling until she found the girl. She looked about Megans age. "Are you okay?"

There it was again, that ache. That terrible consuming and wretched ache. It shook her entire body to the core. A hunger that no amount of food or will power could satiate. This craving was one that only death could satisfy. It had only been a few days since this nightmare had begun but already the evil inside was starting to get the best of her. No small animals would stave off this hunger. Sooner or later Ami knew the time to kill would be upon her.
Her weak and wobbly legs struggled to carry her along the street. She’d had her nightly visit to the park, using what was left of her strength to catch a small squirrel and suck it dry. It tasted horrible and burned as she lapped it up but without it even the young and inexperienced vampire knew she couldn’t survive. She was in a trance, her eyes glued to the ground in front of her and senses dulled from lack of energy. Suddenly something, or someone rather, snapped her out of the zombie like state. Her big blue eyes moved upward to meet a girl.
At first her question didn’t click. But as Ami awoke to what was around her a lightbulb came on. The scent was unlike the humans she’s spent so long dodging. No, this one was different, just like her. She moved her lips to speak but nothing came out. With a second try she finally found success. “I’m… I’m alright…” she lied, wavering as she tried to stand up straight. What could this girl do for her if she said otherwise? Ami hadn’t had the chance to trust anyone other than herself, but even she couldn’t deny that she was in a dire situation here and now.

Megan took the girls hand and helped her up. "No, your not alright, your hungry." She helped the girl to a near by bench. "How long have you been...well, a vampire?" Megan had been turned months ago but it was still hard for her to get her head wrapped around that she was a vampire. She only knew two other vampires. Her mentor, Michael and her boyfriend, Dane. "You need to eat and no I don't mean animals, I mean human. None of us like to do it but we all need to do it. Do you know how?" She looked at the girl.

Ami couldn’t resist against the girl’s help due mostly because of her weakness but also because she knew this was what she needed. Her body sank into the bench, relaxing the exhausted muscles. Even though her body was resting the hunger still remained. She found it increasingly hard to focus on what the kind stranger was saying but somehow pieced enough together to make sense of her words. For now she would trust this girl. In all honesty she didn’t have another choice.
She swallowed hard before answering her question, slowly bringing her eyes back up to meet the girl’s. “A little over three days…” she said. Three days with no proper meal was a good enough explanation for why she was in the state she found herself in now. The next whirlwind of words took Ami a little longer to process but when it all jumbled together and made sense in her head she mustered up a second round. “But I can’t kill someone… I’m not a murderer.” That was the seventeen year old girl speaking. Then came the hunger’s own dialogue to counter. “I understand… I need it… Can you show me?” it asked, the words feeling infantile as they left her lips.

Megan could tell the girl was weak and couldn't get a human on her own. "I'll get one for you. And when you are strong enough to fight I'll show you." She ran to a near by store. "Please, someone, help me. My sister is sick!" She looked worried and scared. Men and woman looked at her oddly. "Please. She is hungry and starving and so weak please please help me." She made herself cry. A young woman came to her side. "Where is she darling?" Megan took the ladies hand and rushed her to near the bench where Ami was. "She is over there." She pointed to Ami. As the lady walked to Ami, Megan creeped up behind her and hit her across the head, hard. The lady feel unconcious. Megan picked up the lady with unusual strength and carried her to Ami. "Here. Drink." She put the womans neck up to Ami, and cut a small hole with her nail, drawing blood.

Finally, finally the prayers that Ami had been to ashamed and confused to say aloud were answered. With some brilliant stroke of luck, or maybe even destiny, Ami had stumbled across a kind hearted girl who could relate to where she was now. Thank goodness he had someone to show her the ropes of this new and strange world. It had been rocky so far but finally the road was smoothing out. Ami nodded as the girl spoke, watching her run off and trying to wait with patience for her return. She knew what would be there when she came back and that idea both excited her and scared the living crap out of her. Soon enough what she had envisioned for the past few days was right in front of her. She was being spoon fed her first human meal.
Ami looked from the girl to the unconscious woman, then back at her helper. A look of confusion on what to do next crossed her face. Sure she knew how to bite but there was still the last thread of her human morality holding her back. That didn’t last too long. The moment her fingers touched the woman’s skin a shock went through her and within an instant Ami’s mouth was to her neck. She bit with the hunger and ferocity of a starving dog, tearing into the woman’s jugular and savoring drop after drop of the sweet crimson liquid. It was like nothing she’d ever tasted. Like lapping up the water of an oasis after wandering through the desert for years. She could feel her strength returning, more strength than she’d ever known before. She was sharper, faster, stronger. A whole new Ami. A better Ami.
With one final lick she dropped the woman, the body falling limp to the ground in front of her. Ami sat up, her posture new and strong. She was no longer the former shell of a person she had been a few moments ago. This was a full fledged vampire who had finally had her taste of human flesh. And loved it. A small smile played across her lips as she licked them free of the remnants of the woman’s blood. Looking up at the girl she figured some major thanks were in order. “I can’t thank you enough for that.” She said, her voice no longer a whisper but now a confidant tone. “I’m not going back to being like that anymore… no more critters for me.” She added with a grin as she stood. “I’m Ami.”

Megan smiled and watched Ami as she drank from the human. Man, this girl was thirsty. She took the woman and hid her in a bush when Ami was done. She smiled when she came back seeing Ami stronger and filled with life...well, vampire life. She licked the blood of her fingers. "I'm Megan." She smiled her pearly white smile. "I don't know if I'm that great of teacher, but I can be one hell of a friend." She laughed and smiled at Ami.
