Aeon Flux, chapter 7
Her body was found by an early morning jogger. It was only because of her bright red hair that stuck through patches of mud and leaves that he even knew the bloody tangle of weeds had once been human.
Police officers and a forensic team were immediately called and the death was recorded as foul play. Jane Doe was stored at the Middlesex morgue until someone who knew her would come forth to claim the body.
But no one ever came. On the seventh day she was to be buried in a nearby hospital cemetery in the section for unknown victims. But upon opening the freezer, in which her body was suppose to be stored, it was discovered the body was missing. The culprit was never found.
Mike woke with a start, the room was swirling around him in colorful circles and his friends who sat beside him looked like characters right off of "The Simpson's".
"Hey man, how are you feeling?" croaked Billie Joe.
"Surprisingly fine," Mike said as he sat up. "What the fuck happened?"
"Greyan shot you," replied Rayne who was sitting in the shadows. "Three times."
"Then what the fuc... ARRGGG!," Mike screamed as he put his hand over his mouth. It felt as though his gums were on fire and he could feel his heartbeat in his throat. "Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!"
"Hold him down he's changing over!" yelled Rayne as Tre pinned Mike's shoulders to the ground.
Mike screamed as if ever bone in his body were being snapped like a toothpick. The pain he was experiencing was like nothing he ever felt before Then it all stopped.
Mike sat panting on the ground and Tre released his grip. Tre sat back and took a seat beside a sobbing Adrienne.
"What the hell just..." Mike stopped as his tongues brushed by where his canine teeth normally were. They were still there but something was wrong. They now stuck out about half an inch more and were accompanied by razor sharp tips.
"You were killed instantly when Greyan shot you," said Billie Joe refusing to make eye contact. "So... so... .Rayne bit you."
"What do you mean?" asked Mike a worried expression in his eyes.
"We're so sorry Mike but we didn't know what else to do," cried Adrienne as Billie wrapped an arm around her shoulder.
"But that means... .I'm... a... a",
"A vampire," Rayne finished his sentence for him.
