The Garden Of Edenia - Intro Desi Williams
Names have been changed to protect the innocent.
I could feel her every emotion reeling through my body. Shit, it’s happening again, I thought angrily. Why can’t I just be normal? But of course, what is normal nowadays? I laughed at my stupidity. It just means I’m special, set apart from the rest. But so much for my little “Matrix” moment in time there. Back to the matter at hand.
As all these thoughts were going through my mind, I could just feel the power surging through my veins. My face, though, was contorted, and tears were threatening to spill from my sapphire eyes.
Cari looked at me strangely. “Destiny, are you alright?” She asked, concerned.
Yeah, I’m fine, my mind muttered. I’m just so damn empathetic that I can feel every little pang of emotion that my friends feel. And to top it off, I’ve got this weird sensation that I always get when I’m being empathetic – like I’m draining their energy and it’s becoming my own power. “Oh, yeah. My shoes are just a little too tight, and my back is acting up again. That’s all. Thanks for noticing,” I lied sweetly.
As we were having this cute little conversation, Teresa was standing at a grave in the Endeavor cemetery. She had told us earlier that her best friend was raped and murdered by her math teacher a few years back, and they had just buried her here. Teresa was the one I was empathetically draining. Whoa. That doesn’t make much sense, does it?
Turning back to us, Teresa rubbed her mohawk and slid a cigarette from behind her ear, putting it between her lips. Out of her back pocket she drew her lighter, cupped her hand over the two, and lit up. Not only had she told us about her best friend (who she obviously missed very much from the fact that I was having to keep from crying, even though she was doing a great job of hiding it), but she also told us that she gets really anxious and stressed when she thinks about dead people, especially her dead best friend, or when she visits graveyards, so that’s why she was smoking.
Cari shook her head, but didn’t say anything. I knew that she was thinking about how she wanted Teresa to stop her bad habit, even though now Cari had picked it up after being the strong one who said no to cigarettes up until this point.
Finishing her smoke, she smashed it under her toe and walked silently to the van. When I caught up with her, I turned her around and wrapped my arms tightly around her. “You okay?” I whispered.
She shook her head. “Not really,” she answered.
“It’ll all be okay. It will. I promise.” I let her go and jumped in the van.
Okay, so now you know a little bit about me. I’m Destiny, and I suck the energy out of people. Just kidding.
What I really am is confused. I’ve been researching a few things on the Internet, and what I have found is astoundingly scary and fits me perfectly. Deep breath here. I have a confession to make. I am a bisexual vampire.
I found this out in a couple of ways. I’ve had depression all my life, I have heightened senses (especially hearing), and I can’t stand the sunlight for very long. I can drain people of their psychic energy. And also, I have an interesting thirst for blood. That’s the sanguinarian vampire part.
I was molested by my grandfather, and so I have always been afraid of guys. Not that they want me. I’m overweight, which sucks. Anyways, I reverted to looking at girls both because I feel they are prettier than me, and also because, well, they are just plain pretty! Of course, I still find guys extremely hot too, so that is why I’m bi.
That was too easy. I think that I’ll provide a story for you so that you can understand my life.
