Chapter 19 Danger has come
Life here is very peaceful, the information about the rebellion is gone, Phoebe is also more secure, and the children love to watch TV and often sit together to eat together.
It had been more than three days with no news of that rebellion, which made her feel much less anxious. But it is also possible that this town is too small and far from the city, where it is difficult to catch the daily news.
Phoebe is working in a factory nearby, the salary is also very good but not enough to support six people, so to save money to buy more things, she has planted a lot of fruit trees behind the house.
One night, the whole town was silent, Phoebe had not gone to sleep because of work, and when she stood up, she suddenly heard strange movements, Vampire's hearing was very sharp even though it was far away. This sound is very strange “grr… grumble… gurg… hiss… hiss…” Humans can't make such a sound, there are no wild animals around so where did that sound come from?
Phoebe listened carefully in silence, the sound she was hearing came completely from a living thing… The sound got longer and longer, but the whole town was still dark and quiet, no one here could hear it. Minutes later that strange noise disappeared without a trace, Phoebe couldn't hear anymore, but she smelled a strong smell of human blood. Why was there the smell of human blood near the source of the sound just now?
Phoebe wanted to go there and see what was going on, but the night made her uneasy if she left the children at home without her, Phoebe still decided to go to bed and pull the curtain back, tomorrow she will go to see its review later.
Early in the morning, Phoebe was awakened by the whispers of the people here, she went out to look, and she saw that they were trembling and panicking. Phoebe asked Aunt Anna:
"What happened? Why is everyone gathering here?”
"Oh Phoebe, don't you know anything, Adam came home from work last night and found a dead body of a woman in an alley outside the town, her whole body was only skin and bones, and there were many bite marks on her body, her blood was drained, it must be a Vampire who did this terrible thing, that corpse could be Dina because she is inherently mentally unstable, her mother has been looking for her all night. Haven't seen it yet."
The corpse of this woman, the villagers did not know who is she, because she was drained of blood, her organs were also taken away, and her clothes were also torn apart without a single piece of cloth on her body. Her form was too horrible to recognize who it was, the villagers could tell the corpse before their eyes was a woman through the genitals of the corpse. A truly nauseating sight.
Phoebe went over to see, the sight so horrible and terrifying that she immediately covered her eyes, the smell of blood on the dead woman was the same scent she had smelled last night. Phoebe was so afraid of standing still. Finally, Vampires who specialized in hunting humans had come here to make a mess.
People panicked, they alerted the authorities and began to stop the sharp fence at the door and around the house. Phoebe followed suit because the safety of the children she couldn't risk.
"Phoebe, please hurry home and build iron fences to prevent the attack of those killers, they are very scary, if you need help please tell me and the people here." said Aunt Anna concerned.
People in the town are also more vigilant, they remind each other not to go alone on the street whether it's day or night, wherever you go, you have to go with three or more people, as soon as sunset appears, there won't be a single person on the street.
Phoebe also rushed home and put up the iron fence, she was really scared even though she was also a Vampire. A few men in town also came to help her, and everything was done before sunset.
It was thought that just being fully prepared would be able to stop the Vampires from attacking, but some villagers began to go missing and their bodies were found in a rather remote and cold forest. The marks on that corpse show that they were sucked all of their blood and killed by vampires, eventually turning into ugly, black corpses.
Phoebe learned that this place was no longer safe for everyone, the other vampires had found the village and started attacking humans. But even though it was no longer safe, it was impossible to move elsewhere at this time.
Perhaps the Vampire was so hungry that the Vampires were looking for humans everywhere, but these days she had not seen any information about the rebellions and why these things were happening now. Could it be that in this terrible riot the Vampires had the upper hand, humans could not control them, so they could go everywhere to riot? A negative thought appeared in Phoebe's mind, making her bewildered.
Phoebe wanted to move on, but she knew there was no safe place anymore, the reason the media couldn't report on vampires was probably that they were already possessed by vampires.
No more negative news, so the people who are still alive think that the great tribulation is over.
Phoebe used the powers of a vampire to search and listen to everything around her, she went into the city alone to explore and hide to go undetected. Phoebe was horrified because the scene in the city now looked like a lifeless ruin, not only in the nearest city but everywhere else.
The village she was living in would sooner or later be found by many vampires, and if so not a single human would survive.
The military can't do anything either, because vampires cannot be destroyed by guns and humans can't use biochemical weapons because it will endanger their species. And may cause genetic mutations for the next generation of humans and, more specifically, poisons that can't harm Vampires.
It's been more than three months, but things are getting worse than ever, army forces are mobilized but in the end, they can't kill the Vampires in exchange for losses in many aspects, especially in terms of troops number. If we continue to fight blindly with Vampires, humanity will soon perish.
Large, densely populated cities that were once beautiful are now desolate and dilapidated. Strong collisions between vehicles caused, some buildings were destroyed, and some places were burned with dense dust. There were bloodstains on the streets on the walls of large buildings along with corpses lying everywhere. No one dared to go out on the street or open the window to see the situation, everything outside was chaotic like this place was at war.
Brutal, Vampires as soon as they encounter humans will immediately kill them with their sharp claws and fangs. They are no different from crazy people who can't be aware of their behavior, at first it can be understood that the Vampire riots were caused by being oppressed by humans for too long, so they revolted against their rights, but after a time can see that Vampires kill people not because they are hungry, but because they want to slaughter the entire human race.
