Bab 4: Really. I Hate Him.
Raz took a step back from Gretha and looked at her like she was mad. He couldn't deny that this woman is the same one he killed all those years ago. But if what she is saying is true, then she only died for the first time because he took her blood? Is it because he is a vampire. Will she say something like ' You need to bite me again'?
"So what do you think?"
Raz folded his hand and looked down. He didn't want to just deny Gretha's claim, but really, what is the fun in just agreeing like that?
"Guards!!!!???"
Gretha's eyes widened in shock as Raz suddenly shouted this! He looked at her with a wide smile and she rolled her eyes at his childishness. If he wanted proof then he should have just asked her!
Ten guards ran into the room once Raz shouted and he pointed to Gretha!
"Seize her and charge her for a crime against the royal family! I want her head by tonight!"
The guards took Gretha away immediately and before even one hour she was beheaded!
.....
"Fucking prick. He really needs to learn how to hold back sometimes. That was too much!"
Joe nodded. He also thought that it was too much for Raz to just kill Gretha. What would have happened if Gretha was actually telling a lie. Well, I guess that wouldn't be so bad for her. She wanted to die after all so she might be happy about that.
But he was still a prick.
Joe held back his story a little as they arrived at the first crime scene. The police tape had been taken down in a few places and Joe could only guess that it was by some kids that wanted to look at the crime scene. They probably started telling each other that it is a haunted house to scare their friends. It's silly, but there's nothing they can do about it. Kids will be kids.
"I'll look in the back and you can search the front. If the bastard came back we'll find something,"
Maria nodded to Joe and they both went their separate ways. Joe looked around the back but he didn't see anything of worth other than a few more bats here and there. He didn't like to think about vampires, but all these bats were making it very hard! He will think more about it later! Let's just finish this first!
Joe looked for any more clues but he just couldn't find anything. Everything here had already been covered up by dust and if there was any evidence it was already gone. He made his way over to the front and he saw Maria looking at a piece of paper. She was frowning down at it and once he came she showed it to him.
"Tonight at five. Look to the sky?"
What the fuck?
Joe looked at Maria for an explanation and she told him that she just found it on the ground there. He grit his teeth. This is exactly what he was worried about! The killer is making this into a chase! I can't have people dying because of this stupid reason!
"Let's just report back first. We need to look for all the possible places where this can happen before five,"
Maria said this to Joe and the two of them made their way to the car before driving off. They didn't tell any more stories while they were going, instead, they began to think of the paper and what it could mean.
Maria sighed as Joe turned the car around the corner. Did they miss something? Was there some sort of clue in the sky that the killer left behind? No... They would have seen something that! So is it a plane? Or maybe...
Maria quickly looked up in shock! A high building!!
"Joe! A high building! The place we're looking for may be just a really high building!"
Joe's eyes also lit up and he quickly turned towards one of the highest buildings in Tokyo!
"Tokyo tower!!"
Maria pulled out a phone immediately!
"I'll call the chief to mobilize a squad while we go to the other spot. I don't want to miss anything so let's just make sure we cover all our tracks!"
Joe nodded and then swerved towards the next destination!
After Maria finished her call they decided that it would be okay to lighten up the mood a little. They had about an hour before getting to the other location so they could just chat. So Joe continued his story...
"Now back then. When the prince of the royal family asks for the head of a servant, you get him the head of a servant,"
....
Clang!
That was the sound of a large plate being opened. Raz looked into the plate on his table before he leaned back down with a grimace. That looks a little weird.
"Don't look at me like that. Your head is weird without a body"
"You're the one that did this to me, you bastard!!"
Gretha was pissed! She was glaring daggers at Raz, but since she was just a head it was a little bit more comedic than it should have been. She sighed to one side as she let go of her anger. She will probably be whole again by tomorrow.
"It's a good thing that I stayed silent while the servant was bringing me here! What would you have done if they saw a talking head!?"
Raz smiled. I'll probably make you into a court mascot. The talking head will be a crowd attraction for sure.
Maria became very weirded out by how Raz was looking at her! Please don't do anything weird to me!! Raz laughed and then he reached in and brought her out.
Now, what am I going to do with you?
"So you'll be whole again tomorrow? How does that work? Do you just grow your body back or does it come back to you by foot?"
Maria was about to shrug, but she remembered that she is just a head and she stuck a tongue out instead.
"I don't really know, it has to do with the dark magic. It's like my body just reforms completely once a day passes,"
Raz nodded and then he gently put her down on his table. She was quite bloody, but he didn't even care. She was a talking head and that was more than worth the stain! He was so curious about her!
"So you mean that you can do everything that humans do right! And you can also sleep and dance and go out! You're so lucky~"
Gretha narrowed her eyes at him! What kind of luck is this!?
"You don't know anything about me so don't think this is a blessing! You can't even understand anything about living, you're just a vampire,"
...
Maria winced. That was a bit much. She didn't think it was necessary to for Gretha to say that too.
"Maybe Gretha went too far on that one. I can tell that Raz is really jealous of her living. It will probably make him angry,"
Joe smirked. He was glad that Maria understood so well. Just like Gretha wanted to die so badly, there was someone else that only wanted to live.
"It's quite ironic, really..."
.....
Raz frowned at Gretha before taking her and putting her back inside the plate! Gretha let out a loud yell! What in the world is wrong with this man! Why are you putting me inside a plate again!?
"You need to learn respect. You might be older than me by a few hundred years, but I'm still you're prince!"
Gretha was completely shocked! Fuck you and your respect! You're just a kid when compared to me! She felt herself going up and then the inside of the plate began to get warmer! Is this man putting me on fire!? What kind of brute is this!?
"You better apologize or I'll steam the shit out of you,"
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Just take me off the fire! That's the worst way to go!! You have no idea how painful it is!!"
Raz held her there for a few more seconds and she thought he wouldn't listen to her but he finally took the plate off the fire and put it down. He opened it and saw her sweating bullets inside.
"That's better. Now, what the fuck do you want from me? I really don't like you,"
Gretha didn't waste any time telling him exactly what she wanted.
"I want you to kill me and then tell me where you'll be in hundred years so I can find you and you'll kill me again! I'm... I'm so tired. I really want to die,"
Raz clicked his tongue in distaste. Why will someone that has been given so much life want to lose it all? Seeing something like this made him feel very irritated.
As a vampire, Raz couldn't go out into the sun. His taste buds were very selective and so he couldn't taste anything that wasn't alive. He didn't feel much because of how strong he was and he is still incapable of sharing his genes with other women to make him children. All the women he dog pregnant died within their first year of pregnancy along with his children, and he could only watch his wives die so many times before he got tired of it.
So seeing someone with so much life trying to die. It was truly disgusting. He just wanted to get her out of his sight.
.....
"Ah, shit. I knew she would mess that up. It really couldn't have gone any worse if she tried,"
Joe shrugged. What can you do? People only look out for themselves in this world and if it's for your benefit you'll probably never bother looking at how it affects your neighbor.
"Do you think he'll agree?"
Joe asked Maria this question and the smile she gave him was a confident one.
"Yeah, he will,"
