The Past Is Catching Up To You

[Mina Murray]

((Set June 14th, closed to Mina and Alucard.))

Mina sat alone in her tent. It was feeding time for her at the moment, and even though she'd often times feed on someone on stage. (Either a volunteer or a cast member) Right now she needed to gorge on blood, enough that it could kill someone. So instead one of the workers had brought her a cage full of wild rabbits. And even though Mina felt a twinge of guilt at the fear the rabbits showed when she approached them she figured it was as least better than killing a human being.

Mina reached in the cage taking one out (there were five of them) practically salivating at the quickening of it's pulse and the smell of adrenaline it was producing. She latched onto the rabbits throat ignoring the kicking and noises it made as it's hot salty blood gushed into her mouth.
The rabbit lay still a few minutes later, while Mina feasted on it feeling the blood almost instantly give her nourishment. It warmed her skin and made her feel stronger. Then she felt something watching her, it sent a chill down her spine.

She licked the blood off her lips and looked around, what she wouldn't give for a door with a lock. Anyone could come in here when they pleased, and watch her feed.
"Who's there?" She finally said, a bitter edge to her voice."You might as well come out! I know you're there, come to gape at the vampire have you, well are you satisfied?"

[Alucard]

"Not quiet," Alucard said stepping into the tent casually. He looked at Mina up and down, just as beautifual after alll these years. Although she was no longer the quiet and innocent English girl he knew then, no longer the very picture of English woman hood. For starters she was much more scantily dressed in a dark red corset dress who's skirt was slit up the side so that he could see all of her leg and the neckline was low enough to catch anyone's attention.

He lowered his amber colored glasses thenm gazing at the woman with blood red eyes. With her he didn't have to hide himself from her, she knew who he was and what he was. And he could tell from the look
"Hello my English Rose," he said smiling showing his sharp fangs. His voice was thickly accented with his Romanian accent and his tone casual."It has been awhile since we've seen eachother hasn't it? Transylvania I believe it was."

[Mina Murray]

At the sight of the vampire, the very vampire that had attacked her leaving behind deep physical and mental scars. Mina jumped from her seat knocking the dead half drained rabbit from her lap. She tried to put as much distance between herself and him as possible.

But as she touched the cloth of the tent it was like touching stone, she was trapped due to the spell on the tent that wouldn't let any of the cast out except with the permission from a circus worker. Trapped in here with him. Mina could feel herself trembling in fear and her pulse pounding.

"You're dead...they told me you were dead." She finally said her voice coming out silent and hoarse with fear. Mina was hoping and praying that the count was just a hallucination or nightmare, like many of the ones she had had in the past. She'd wake up screaming and thrashing dreaming, and remembering, the feeling of the vampire sucking the life out of her then forcing her lips to his cut throat as he....

She began crying remembering what had happened, closing her eyes and turning her face away from him. Her hand going to her throat clutching the scarf to her scars.
Let it be me losing my mind, please God let it be me losing my mind! She said to herself gasping and almost sobbing now. She opened his eyes trying to suppress a scream as she saw him smiling at her showing her the very teeth that had ripped into her flesh. And the most horrible thought came to her mind then. If he hadn't turned her into a vampire before, he would do so now.

"Please...no. Not that." Mina whimpered more terrified than she had ever been in her life.

[Alucard]

Alucard only smiled and walked closer, this time reaching out and cupping her chin in his hand so that she had to look at him. To see just how real it was. With his other hand he wiped her tears away with his gloved hands smiling slightly at the way Mina was whimpering and shivering.

Shame really that he hadn't been able to turn her completely, she would've been the most beautiful of his "brides."
"No," He said shaking his head. "They didn't. Instead they trapped me, and broke whatever link you and I had. Which is why you aren't like me..." Then he smirked glancing at the drops of blood on the woman's lips. "Or at the very least not to much like me." He leaned forward then and licked the blood off the woman's bottom lip, revealing in the woman's terror.

He wasn't planning on killing or hurting the woman, far from it really. He just wanted to see her reaction to him after what he had done to her. Human fear always fascinated the Dark Prince, having gone centuries without feeling even an inkling of pain or fear, he even forgot what it felt like.
So when he was around someone who was so obviously afraid of him, he would study their pain and their fear.

[Mina Murray]

Mina couldn't look away from the Count as he approached her, her entire body seemed to almost freeze from the fear she couldn't even blink. But when he put his hands on her, cupping her face with his hands she let out a fearful whimper. And tears began streaming from her eyes.

"No, no, no,no." She kept saying over and over her voice coming out in barely a whisper. Then his hard cold lips were on hers and his tongue was running along her bottom lip. It was like someone running the dull end of a knife blade along her lip, and she could smell his foul stench. He smelled like blood and death.

"No!" She finally shouted pushing away from him and moving as fast away from his as possible for her in her traumatized state. She looked at him as wide and defenseless as a fawn.
"Wh-why are you here? Why must you keep torturing me?" Mina cried trying to put a chair between herself and the vampire even though she knew it was no good. Nor did she think he'd answer her at all, nor did she think she'd like the answer to them either.

[Alucard]

"Why?" Alucard said gently cupping Mina's face in his hands and turning her face so that her crying green eyes were looking into his crimson eyes. "Why Mina, because I was curious about what had become you after the last time we had seen one another. And from the looks of things, it's not gone well at all. Just imagine how much better your life would be if you had become one of my brides."
He teased running his thumb over her lips, smiling as her fangs were exposed.

"Though by the looks of it you practically already are, all you'd need is a missing pulse and you'd be just like me, engleza mea a crescut. I take it though that this was somewhat my doing, after all without me you'd still be just another quiet, mousy, well behaved English girl."
He leaned in closer smelling her, or more like smelling whom she had been with. Some man who's scent was similar to the angry Italian man outside.
"How much more interesting your life has become, perhaps instead of hating me Mina. You should be thanking me."

[Mina Murray]

"Thanking you?" Mina whispered in a low harsh voice, her anger overcoming her fear. "Never in a million years!" She reached out an pushed Alucards hand away from her chin wanting to show him she was to far gone to care if he was a vampire (the most powerful vampire in existence in fact) she was to far gone to be truly care.

"You've turned my life into a living hell!" Mina shouted angrily. "Because you attacked me and raped me, Jonathan wouldn't even look at me let along touch me! He, and you, made me feel like I deserved it that I had asked you to do...that to me! That I had done something to deserve it, that I had asked you to turn me into a vampire because I loved you."
The woman had angry tears running down her face, but she wiped them away with the back of her hand and continued on.

"And now, because of you, I'm stuck as this!" She pointed to her wings and her fangs. "I have to drink blood, like you, in order to keep on living! I'm stuck in this mutated body forced to preform for people I loath, or other wise face death by starvation or worse! So tell me why should I be thanking you?!"

[Alucard]

Alucard was on her in a blink of an eye, his hand wrapped around her and his mouth, fangs exposed, inches away from her own.
"You should be thanking me," he hissed. "Because without me you'd be nothing! You'd still be a weak, helpless damsel in distress. Admit it, Mina, you like the change you've gone through. You're smarter, braver and more confident than you ever were before. And the only reason you're in the position you're in now is because you weren't smart enough to not get caught."

Alucards other hand started undoing Mina's scarf, despite her protesting cries. When it was completely off he smirked at the scars he had left on her.

"I'm as much a part of you as these scars are Mina, you can't get rid of me. I made you who you are and you can never undo it."
And without another word he plunged his fangs into her once more, penetrating the scared flesh once more. He gulped down her sweet blood, he had drunk from many many people in his life time.

But she was by far the sweetest. Mina tasted like some type of berry (raspberry perhaps) coated honey and white chocolate. He couldn't get enough.

[Mina Murray]

Mina felt her heart almost completely stop at the vampire grabbed onto her. She tried fighting back to try and get away from him, but that seemed to make things worse.

"I'm as much a part of you as these scars are Mina, you can't get rid of me. I made you who you are and you can never undo it."

"No!" She cried trying to push away once more, she had to get away from him. But it was to late he had taken off her scarf and she could feel his fangs in her once more. And just like that it all came flooding back.
---------------------------

"NOOO! Noooo!" Mina screamed and cried, pinned to the bed underneath him. Her dress all but ripped off of her, the vampire was on top of her penetrating her body and soul all at once. Mina tried to push him off tried to fight him off as he ripped her throat open and pushed himself into her. But he was to strong.

She felt herself getting dizzy and nauseous as he drained her of her blood, ripping the flesh off her and lapping her blood up. Even in her woozy state of mind she could tell he was reveling in her pain.

But the worse was yet to come. As soon as he was finished with her body and blood he raised her head to the cut on his chest. And Mina, in her delirious state, mistook his blood for water and willingly lapped it up. Unknowingly allowing the vampire transformation to take place.
---------------------------------

Mina let out a heart wrenching sob waiting for him to do it again, waiting for him to ravage her body once more. And this time there would be no one to stop him from turning her from killing her.
Or worse turning her completely.

[Alucard]

Alucard grinned as he heard Mina's sob, her adrineline from her fear and pain giving him a slight buzz as he lapped up her blood.
"Shhh Mina," He said after awhile. "I can't have you drawing attention to us and bringing our little reunion to such an abrupt end."

He reached up and placed one cold hand over her mouth to keep her from screaming to loud as he continued feeding on her. Moving his mouth down lower so his fangs were buried in one of her shoulders. He had no intention of scarring her further or killing her, unless she gave him a reason to.

[Mina Murray]

Mina sobbed as the vampire bit her shoulder, trying to scream but failing to make a sound with the vampire's hand over her throat. The pain from his teeth in her flesh burned and she got flashes of memory of that night.

"No...no..." Mina sobbed again, her voice muffled. She closed her eyes tight, feeling the blood drain out of her once more and down his throat. "Please."
She shuddered at the coldness of his undead flesh and mouth, how inhuman he felt and smelled. And the coldness going throughout her body as the blood drained from her. There was no telling how much he had taken from her, or it her body was just reacting to the trauma.

She felt like she was going to pass out at any moment. And frankly that would be a relief to her.
