“I may not be human anymore, but I’m not stupid. Don’t lie to me.”

“Oh please! You left us! You left us all for dead in that god forsaken house!” (Child)

“I did what I had to!”

The child shook her head, closing her eyes as tears threatened to slip past. “No! No you didn’t! You did what was best for you! And then you became one of… them.”

“You don’t know the whole story.”

“What I know is enough. You don’t deserve the truth.” The child backed away, to the others watching. “Don’t come back. Like you said, you aren’t human.”

“No! You don’t understand! It was for us! For you, me, your siblings! Please just listen.

The child ignored her pleas, tucking herself into the crowd of people, staring at the monster in disgust.

“Wait. Don’t do this. I might have left you but it wasn’t permanent! I came back!”

A man scowled, “It’s too late.” He told her gruffly.

“I’m sorry!”

I'll take those likes as yes-es!

I'll go first - since it's Halloween today, how about something supernatural?

"I may not be human, (can have "anymore" here if the char. used to be a human) but I'm not stupid either. Don't lie to me."

I just realized I never even posted on this thread, yet I'm still following it. Anyway, I'm in!


"I may not be human," Vitzermite stared out of the windshield, "but I'm not stupid either. Don't lie to me."
I rolled my eyes. "Seriously? I told you, I didn't break your stupid car, and I didn't get it locked up either."
I huffed and flattened my feathers against my cold feet. This freak was impossible. Yeah I wanted revenge, but it didn't have to go this way!
"But you was next to it when the floorboards fell out!" Vitzermite cocked his head, the weird crest nodding. "I heard you peck it!"
I brought my wings forward and burried my head in my flight feathers. "Just please stop and let me go! I'm not going to help you!"
A bright light pierced through the windows, brightening the inside of Timmy's mother's car. "Who's there?" A human's voice thundered from the outside.
"We'll come back later," Vitzermite hissed, turning the key. He moved the funny looking stick and the car rolled backwards.
"Hey! Stop!" The pathetic human called. Like this weird bird was actually going to listen to him, ha!
Vitzermite slammed the stick upwards and the car screeched forward, leaving the row of locked up cars behind. How is he even driving this thing, I folded my wings in and held on for the crazy ride. He drifted the car sideways, and I slammed into the door. It didn't matter. However- whenever this is over, I'm going to peck him harder than I pecked his precious car.

I took hold and of her throat and lifted her off the ground. The woman sputtered and gasped for breath as I turned her head slightly, taking in her terrified expression.
My lungs burned from inhaling smoke but I did not mind.
“I am only going to ask this once more,” I released my grip slightly, “are you hiding infected?”
She was ridged with fear, her eyes running over the sight of her burning village. Her friends and neighbors lay lifeless on the ground, some aflame, caught by the sparks that danced from the dry wood.
“N-no!” She managed to cough.
I squeezed her neck harder. “I may not be human but I’m not stupid either,” she clawed frantically at my hands, “don’t lie to me.”
“Fine…” she wheezed.
I dropped her to the ground and planted my taloned foot over one her ankles, pinning her to the dirt.
“In…house…o-over there…” she pointed. “Trapdoor…”
I could tell by her face she was telling the truth. That was all I needed.
With a quick flick of my talons, she joined her friends.
A small casualty in the shadow of necessity.

Boss: why are you late for work? And don’t give me some crazy excuse this time?

Me: well, the chickens stole my car.

"I said, tell. Me. The truth. NOW."
I leaned close to the captive's face, searching his eyes. He was lying. I knew it. "Where. Are you hiding. The weapon!" I growled.

I got a stare for an answer. Irritated, I stood up straight and paced around the room. When I glanced out the window, I could see my reflection's burnt-amber eyes start glowing, showing my anger. I had to control myself, or my illusion would collapse right here and now.

I sighed. Not now... I don't have time for this now...

Too late. I flinched as my human illusion flickered and vaporized around me, revealing my true form.

I walked leisurely back to my captive, seeing no need to be calm now that he knows what I am. "So... The secret is out, eh? Now..."

I let my eyes flash, then glow steadily. "Answer me, or I will be less than merciful with you." I laughed wickedly, showing my fangs. "I am rather hungry... You shall be my morning snack if you refuse to cooperate. And I'm running out of patience."
Most vampires are impatient, really. Being immortal means you quite literally have all the time in the world, so I don't know why we're impatient, but we are.

This time I got a reply. "I have no idea what you're talking about."
That pushed me over the edge. My eyes glowed brighter, and I grabbed the man by his shirt collar and flung him against the wall, pinning him there with a force field. I love my magic...
I stepped forward, pacing before him as I counted off things on my fingers. "Let's see. One, I have reason to believe that someone is working on a generator of sorts that would wipe out all nonhumans and nonpure humans in a the entire Eastern US. Two, I have a spy that says you designed this.... machine. Three, I, uh, ran into one of your men a few days ago, and he said something about you and the eliminator and activation before I killed him. So you have no alibi, Lyro. You're in too deep and you weren't careful enough." I stifled a yawn and continued. It must be nearly daylight. Dawn makes me sleepy. "Four, this is not about self-preservation or even preservation of my kind. It's about saving half a country worth of mortal lives." I yawned again. There's sunrise. "Ya see, everyone has a bit of non-human blood in them..." Hmm, blood... I'm hungry again. Maybe I'll use this dude as a meal when I'm done with him. "Even you. You are mostly mortal, yeah. But about 6, 7 generations back, there was a little affair with a werewolf and your great-great-great-great-great-great-grandmother. So the moment you press the button on your little human-world-saver, you'll die too. You really wanna sacrifice yourself to only get rid of half the US' nonhumans? We'll only repopulate." I yawned a third time. The sun was coming up a bit more. "Five. I may not be human, but I'm not stupid, either. Don't lie to me. I know you possess this eliminator, and I'm gonna destroy it. So where is it?"

He didn't answer.

I yawned again and rubbed below my eyes. It's daylight. This is getting embarrassing. Can't even stay awake for an interrogation I'd been trying to make happen for months. Or maybe it's years in mortal time. Whatever.

"Come on... I have the upper hand here, and you know it." I stepped closer, within arm's reach. "This is the last time I will ask you this, and if you don't answer, I will kill you. WHERE IS THE ELIMINATOR!?!?" I grabbed him by the shirt collar again and lifted him off the ground. He struggled, trying to breathe. I locked my eyes on his and focused a particular bit of my magic into him.

I heard a soft snap. It was the sound of a man's mind breaking.

"Give. Me. An answer." I lowered him to his feet.

His glazed, barely-focused eyes roamed about the room, then settled on me. "It's... In... in Solisara.... You'll sense it when you find it, it's enchanted..."

I smiled. It never fails. "Thank you, Lyro. You're very helpful. You may go."

"Yes, mistress..." He started to walk away.

With a snap of my wrist and a few words, his life force left his body and flew to me, spiraling into the charm around my neck.

"You got what you wanted... Why did you kill him?" My favorite aide, Sloane, asked as he approached me.

"Because he was evil. He needed to be taken out of commission, or he would have become... And done... Something much worse, even if we destroy the eliminator. Speaking of which, gather a drop team. We're flying to Solisara tonight to do just that."

Sloane never questions me. He shrugged, made a little 'I see' sound, and left the room again. My supersensitive ears heard him say "Sometimes I wonder what you'd be like with one drop of mercy..." as he walked away.

I didn't tell him that I'd searched Lyro's timeline before I broke his mind.

I didn't tell him that I'd seen the worlds at war again, humans and nonhumans vying for power because of one tiny little argument.
I didn't tell him that I'd seen Lyro, not Lyro anymore but a monster I'd never seen the likes of.
I didn't tell him that I saw that monster programming human minds with his own, poisoning them against nonhumans.
And I didn't tell him that I'd seen the nonhumans lose the war.

I still haven't told him that if I had mercy, we'd be dead today. All of us.

I might have gotten carried away and completely forgot the fact that this was supposed to be short...
