Vampires Last Kiss

In the city full of darkness I wander alone. A lost soul, lost in thought, lost in grief and lost in a dangerous part of the city. My love has left me, for who or what I have no idea.
My soul has darkened with the shadows of my grief. My heart has shattered into a million jagged pieces. Then I heard it, a cry as full of grief, pain and sorrow as I am. I am pulled by the cry. The Sound tore at my heart. The sound pulled at my inner soul making me want to find it. It made me need to find it.
Then I heard the cry again and to my amazement the sound was right in front of me. I found that I was in the darkest part of an alley which was in the darkest part of the city. Something was in the alley with me, some thing dangerous, some thing prime evil, yet, lost and scared.
The Moon came out just then and I saw what I was being confronted with. I found my self in the company of an abomination, a being that to me was from the depths of hell itself. Yet I was not scared. I was not afraid of what I have found, of what I have seen for the first time. The thing was curled up into a fetal position. It was in the corner of the alley in which I was standing. it was clutching a dead rat in its long bony white fingers. The rat had two puncture wounds in its neck and blood was oozing from them.
As I got closer I saw what I was being truly confronted with. I was in the presence of a Vampire, yet again I found that I was not afraid. The Vampire shivered from the cold and the dampness of the weather. The cold air was whipping around the alley like an angry vortex, sending cold mist, like icy darts into both of our bodies.
I stepped closer for a better look. broken glass crunched under my feet. The Vampire had opened his eyes then and looked at me. It bared its fangs and said, " Leave this place or fore go the consequences." I shook my head and said, " I can not do that. you look like you need help." The Vampire, looked at me, his eyes flashed red, pierced me as if he was able to see right into the very pit of my soul, he said, "No. You can not help me. I am one of the Undead, there is no saving me. I am already dead yet still alive. Leave me Now!!"" He winced in pain as a spasm coursed through his body. I said, "Please. Please let me help you I think I know what can be done....You need help or blood, I can give you both." I moved closer to him and stretched my hand out towards him. He batted my hand away. "No!", He growled, "You do not understand, I want to die, I need to die."
A look of utter shock had flit across my face. He had seen the look that covered my face and he asked, "why do you look so shocked?" I looked at him and said, "I don not know," I then asked bluntly, after a Little pause, "I thought Vampires could not die?" The Vampire had laughed then and winced in pain again as another muscle spasm raged through out his body. "Why are you laughing at me?" I had asked him with a hurt expression on my face. He had noticed the look on my face and surprisingly he took my hand into his. His hand had felt lifeless and cold, like from the grave. He then had said, "I was not laughing at you, just at the irony of your question." Another spasm of pain had hit him and a look of concern had crossed my face again and I said, "Please, Please how can I help you?" He then looked deep into my eyes and I saw a dark shadow of finality and sadness within the darkness of his soul. His eyes had held mine for what seemed like an eternity and I could not turn away from his gaze. He Plaintively said, "you must kill me.". A look of complete shock had filled my eyes, along with tears. I did not want to do this, so I said, "I-I have never killed anyone before in my life. I don't even know how to go about killing a Vampire." I said these words, now with tears freely running down my cheeks, then I had said, "I do not want to do this, please do not make me kill you." He had Looked at me again, frustration formed in his eyes, and in his voice, he said, "you must," he then went on to explain, "I have never tasted human blood and I plan on never tasting it. I want to die. I am a monster now, I am not what I used to be. A few days ago I was a human like your self, now I am this hideous monstrosity. You see I truly want to, I need to die." With tears flowing from my eyes, all I could do was look at him. I was unable to say a word. Again he looked at me and his eyes were full of pain, he pleaded with me, "Please, you must do this for me." As I looked into his eyes, the words came spilling out of my mouth, and I said, "I shall do what you want. But you must tell me what to do. I do not know how to do what you want me to do." He had a look of relief, which flooded his face, when I said I would kill him.....I couldn't believe he would be relieved. He is a creature of the night, one that cant die, yet here he is asking me, a mortal to be the one that kills him. I asked him, "What do I use, how do it do it?" He said, "There are several ways to kill a Vampire, I can tell you two ways that would work for you now. The first is sunlight, it will burn me, turn me to ash. Also there is a stake through the heart. That is the method you must use." He then placed his hand over his heart, pinpointing the exact spot to put the stake through his body. Again I had qualms about what he was asking of me. I said, "We could wait for the daylight, for the sun to come up." To me daylight was the lesser of the two evils. He Shook his head no and said, "No. It is too dangerous for you to be out here for that long. You will have to use the stake, and it has to be made of wood." I looked around the alley way quickly, not seeing anything that I would be able to use as a stake to kill this creature, to be able to do what he desires of me. I turned towards hams again and as I stared at him, I said, "Where am I to find wood out here?" I made a sweeping arch with my arm encompassing the whole alley way. He nodded his head towards a corner of the alley. I went over there and I found a piece of wood that had a point on it and I picked it up with my hand. I then turned and looked at him where he lay and I found that he was staring intently at me. As I looked at him I found that there was no fear in his eyes. I was the one with the fear in my eyes along with tears. I slowly walked over to him, where he was laying, I knelt down next to him. I said, "I have one request, a favor of sorts to ask of you before I do what you want me to do." He looked at me strangely and then asked, "What is this request that you ask of me?" I laid the stake down beside me and took both of his hands in mine, then took a deep breath and said, "May I have one kiss from you before I kill you?" Now it was his turn to be shocked and have a look of unbelievement on his face and in his eyes. "Why? Why would you want that?", he asked bewildered. I looked at him and then I said, "All I want is one kiss." His eyes had pierced my soul again and again I could feel his agony. He then said, "one Kiss, only one." I leaned in and my soft warm lips brushed against his cold lifeless lips. I never knew lips could be so cold, it felt like I was kissing a block of ice. As I kissed him, the kiss deepened but after a few seconds he pushed me away. I looked at him and asked, "Why did you do that?" I had a hurt look on my face and he could see it. He winced in pain again. Again I could feel his pain. He said, " you got your kiss, now it is time to fulfill your end of the bargain." With tears flowing freely from my eyes, I grasped the wooden stake in my hands. I positioned it over his heart. I looked into his eyes, looked into mine, then he closed his eyes. With a strength I had never known, I plunged the stake deep into him. It went so deep that it connected with the cement of the alley way, making a sickening thud. His wail of final agony mingled with my own cry of despair, as I watched him turn to dust. For now I truly have lost my love forever. As I walk away from the darkest part of the city, I cry. I cry for my love, for the man he was, for the person he would have evolved into and for the Vampire he had become.
