Dracula: Patient zero
Chapter: 3
Stone age dating

Valdr was running through the forest like the wind. It looked as if time was slowing down as he could watch water drops falling in slow motion all around as he ran by. He was running by animals that reacted to him only after he was long gone.
All around, the forest appeared to him as black and white with sometime bright red spots visible from afar. What he could see brightly was warm blood, the brightest point was the heart which was pumping the delicious fluid all around the bodies of warm blooded creatures.
But by experience Valdr knew that animal blood was like offering a glass of water to an alcoholic so he simply ignored them. What he wanted was to reach a rival tribe's village, eat then come back before dawn.
Normally doing the round trip in a night would be impossible but Valdr's speed couldn't be compared to anything else living on this planet. As he was running by all types of animals, Valdr thought to himself that it would be a good idea to bring back some of them on his way back for his fellow tribe members to eat.
After a while he started to feel it, there was hearts pumping the coveted liquid straight ahead of his position. He furtively closed in until he saw the lights of campfires. There, he could hear people sleeping, others patrolling.
Even if he was far away he could clearly see bright red spot glowing against the dark surroundings even through the walls of their 'village'. Valdr simply positioned himself at a vantage point and waited for something in particular, which happened soon after.
One of the guards suddenly distanced himself a little from the village. Valdr knew that eventually someone would want to take a shit, and even in the stone ages men knew not to shit where they sleep. Valdr immediately disappeared from where he was standing, quickly moving in a blur toward the lone guard.
The guard was squatting in the bushes with a half-log pushed out of his rectum when Valdr suddenly appeared in front of him. It had happened to fast that in the eyes of 'squatting man' it looked as if he had appeared out of thin air.
Valdr was looking down at the 'squatting man', who was looking up at Valdr. Then suddenly, 'squatting man' stood up ready to scream but at the same instant Valdr's eyes turned jet black. In less than a fraction of a second, Valdr's hand was high in the air.
As fast as lightning he swung his hand down, slapping the man on the side of his head. But it was no ordinary back handed slap... It was a 'starving Valdr's slap' that didn't rip the man head's off sending it flying. Not it was more like a watermelon being hit by a cannon ball.
Pouf!* The head was gone in millions of tiny juicy bits. His teeth growing longer and veins appearing all over his face Valdr dug in ferociously, ripping the man to shreds as he was draining the body directly from the arteries.
After a while Valdr let go of the body, knelled on the ground with his hands palm up on each side as he was looking toward the sky still euphoric from the blood. His sight was so accentuated that he could see a hundred times more stars as with normal human sight. He could see beautiful star formations as if he was peering into the God's domain.
Then he stood up and looked all around him. There was a pile of shit, covered with guts and shredded pieces of his last meal. But to his left, were more prey... Should he simply go back home... Or give in to gluttony.
«Guard» Ǫrnólfr!!? Ǫrnólfr?!! How long does it take to take a shit?!!
«Valdr» Muwehehehe Dessert is served....
[A while later]
Valdr ended up 'eating' all the guards on post that night... Surely the other tribe members will panic when they wake up into a guard-less village in the morning. Actually Valdr felt marvelous... Overflowing with energy, after his last five 'snacks' he felt like he could conquer the world as he was completely high on blood.
Now on his way back home, he eventually stopped to look at the sky. The moon was still high, so Valdr decided to do a little bit of hunting before going back home. He saw a few elks... Easy prey... Almost boring... A bit further away he heard something that got him exited. Two saber tooth tigers close to each other, which almost always means a male and a female.
It was very likely since spring is their mating season. Valdr ran toward the two animals which were ranging between 490 to 880 lb... These creature could not be compared to modern tigers when it came to size and strength.
In a flash, Valdr appeared in range of the biggest one of the two from up above. Valdr had jumped ten meters high in the air taking the creature by surprise as it didn't expect an attack to come from above. Valdr tightened his fist and struck on top of the animal's head.
His fist went right through the tiger's skull, plowing through like it was butter and finally emerging underneath in the neck region in a bloody gush. Then as quickly as he had appeared, Valdr pulled his fist out and appeared in front of the second one before it even had time to notice what had just happened and twisted its neck in a loud crunch.
Proud of his catch he took both over his shoulders and kept running toward his village before the sunrise. He arrived as the sun was about to peer out, he walked in the village and dumped the beasts next to the fire-pit in the center of the village under the incredulous eyes of the night guards.
Valdr was totally covered in blood at this point and not a centimeter of his skin was left unsoiled. Not having time to go to the river to wash he brought a bowl of water with him in his hut and did a bit of cleaning before going to sleep.
When the villagers woke up, they were met with the sight of two of humanity's nemesis... Every year thousands of humans were eaten by those big cats and Valdr had effortlessly taken on two of them on his own as if he had hunted rabbits...
The villager spent the entire day talking about Valdr's prowess and how unbelievably powerful he was. They spent many hours praying to the Gods and leaving offerings in front of Valdr's hut almost leaving no place to get out by the door.
In his sleep, Valdr dreamed of dismembered corpses, bloody massacres and endless oceans of blood. Any normal person would have called it a nightmare but to Valdr it was the most pleasant of dreams. Actually when he woke up at dusk, he realized after seeing the dried up substance all over his belly that he had came in his sleep.
Now an 18 year old adult, Valdr realize it was more than time for him to get himself a wife to bear his children. Would his children be like him? Would they be normal humans? With his feelings and emotions heightened by vampirism, Valdr felt the urge to copulate to be stronger than ever before.
«Halldóra» Valdrislav! Honey are you awake?
«Valdr» Yes mother you can come in. He said quickly using some animal skins to cover his still erected manhood.
Halldóra entered Valdr's 'lair' and twitched after seeing Valdr entirely covered in dried up blood excepted over his face, arms and chest area. After composing herself she quickly grabbed a bowl of water and started to affectionately wash his body.
Suddenly she grabbed the animal skins and pulled them away exposing Valdr's erection. Her eyes grew big, her cheeks getting red in embarrassment. Valdr was the most embarrassed of the two as he quickly grabbed the skin back to hide his virility.
«Halldóra» Sorry son... But you know... There's nothing to be embarrassed about, I saw it your entire life....... Of course... not... like that... She said while looking away, getting even redder.
«Halldóra» My son... Grew big... She then muttered to herself.
«Valdr» Actually I wanted to talk to you about that... He said trying to break the awkwardness, but instead his mother became even more embarrassed and started stuttering.
«Halldóra» Y..yy.y.you see... Ww.w..when a man love a woman... very much... The man...

«Valdr» Hahahaha* not that mother! Father already told me everything about that... particular subject... Hahahaha*
«Halldóra» Ha! Ho!... I.. see hihihii* sorry... She laughed while rubbing the back of her head.
«Valdr» No.. What I wanted to ask is if it was alright for me to get myself a wife..? After hearing that Halldóra grew exited.
«Halldóra» Ha! Yes! Since you have been sick for two years we never got around that subject. Actually your two friends got themselves wives now.
«Valdr» Vígbjǫrn and Gjafvarðr did?
«Halldóra» Yes in the raid from a year ago. I will go ask your father to organize another raid on a neighboring village to get you a wife soon.
«Valdr» Ha! No need mother... To me, even alone it is an easy thing to do... I thought of getting one tonight. Halldóra gave a complicated expression after hearing that.
«Halldóra» Of course honey, you have my and your dad's approval. She said while giving a warm smile to Valdr.
«Valdr» Thank you mom!! I'm going now! He then disappeared in a flash for his nightly 'hunt'.
That night, Valdr went back to the village he had went to the night before. It was an obvious choice as he knew that the village was now mostly defenseless. All that was left there now was mostly women and children... Obviously a few men would still be there but nothing that Valdr couldn't handle on his own.
When he arrived at the village he went to his previously used vantage point and concentrated on his heightened senses. There was no guards outside of town and the exit had been barricaded. Almost the entire village seemed awake and huddled together in the center of town around a big bonfire.
Then concentrating on his earring he listened to what was happening in the village.
«Adult male voice» Do you think that monster will come here again tonight?
---
«Young girl's voice» Mommy is the monster that killed daddy going to eat us too?
---
«Adult female voice» Sob*sob*sob*
---
«Adult male voice» You saw the corpses right? Whatever killed them is not something we can deal with!!! We need to get the fuck away from here as soon as possible!
---
«Young girl's voice» I'm sleepy mommy...
---
«Adult female voice» Sob*sob*sob*
---
«Adult male voice» I don't want to die... I don't want to die... I don't want to die... I don't want to die...
Well it was nothing Valdr didn't expect... But he thought he may had overdone it seeing they didn't even went for isolated area to defecate and simply did it where everyone could see them. This goes to show just how terrified they truly were.
Valdr knew he didn't have time to go to another village if he wanted to be back home before sunrise, and to hunt in this village meant... Slaughtering them all! He placed an animal skin to cover his head like a hoodie and ran toward the village palisade.
In a quick blur almost unnoticeable to the human eye he jumped over the palisade and sat down next to the fire, stealthily mixing himself into the crowd. He then calmly observed them, looking to find the prettiest girl of reproductive age among them all.
Immediately he noticed a young blue eyes, blond haired girl who looked very young but smelled of delicious blood making him salivate. The girl was unmistakably on her period and Valdr could smell it from tens of meters away.
The smell of her warm and sweet menstrual blood was slowly making Valdr escalate into a feeding frenzy. There was no stopping it anymore, Valdr was the unstoppable fist of the Gods. An unwavering force of nature, the apocalypse itself bringing the village to its inevitable doom.
The familiar black veins started covering his face announcing an imminent slaughter. His fingers slowly turning into clawed 'shredding appendices'. Then finally, as his eyes finally became black Valdr was already gone in a blur.
Ripping a throat here, ripping a heart and a head there... In a flash he went from one village to the other as fast as he could, killing them in the most effective ways he knew about. Since his senses are so sharp, to Valdr it felt like a few minutes but he had in fact annihilated the entire village (35 people) in less than 20 seconds.
Then, in one of his most intense feeding frenzy so far he gorged himself with blood until he couldn't anymore. His belly was so swelled up he looked like he was pregnant of an eight month old baby. This time Valdr was even more satisfied by what he had done.
The bodies of the people were place on top of the palisade as if they were clothes placed there to dry. The blood flowing down from their corpses, slowly covering the palisade like paint was a sight of beauty. This time Valdr had made art!
Most of all his good mood was helped by the soundtrack playing in the background. It sounded like a rapid drum beat. Ba-dum* Ba-dum* Ba-dum* Ba-dum* Ba-dum* Valdr knew very well what he was listening at, it was the heartbeat of the girl who struck his fancy earlier.
He saw her run away as he was slaughtering the other and didn't do anything about it. He could catch up to her easily after finishing what he was doing but surprisingly the girl hadn't left the village. She hid herself behind a pile of firewood hoping not to be noticed, but Valdr could see and hear her through anything, this pile of wood was no exception.
Like a white and red dot on a black background, there was absolutely no way for him not to know where she was. Normally walking without a sound, Valdr started making his steps heavy for her to hear as he was approaching.
Her heart was going crazy the closer he got and to be honest, it was making Valdr ecstatic. He stopped in front of the woodpile and stayed there a while listening to her panicky breathing, filling his lungs with the smell of the blood flowing out of her private part.
Without a single sound he then disappeared, then reappeared again on the other side of the woodpile next to the girl who still hadn't noticed him. Noticing a shadow next to her the girl slowly turned her head to see. What she saw was Valdr, in his normal human appearance but entirely covered in blood from head to toe.
«Young girl» HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!!!!!
Valdr a bit annoyed by the loud noise grabbed her by the neck and lifted her up high toward the sky as if she was made out of air. He strangled her until she lost consciousness, then threw her over his shoulder and went back toward his home village.
«Valdr» You're mine now.
All in all a very successful day once again.
