Beauty Of The Beast
The moon hung like a beacon in the night sky as she slowly walked up the dark street, a long shadow following the slender figure as she walked towards the full moon.
This was no place for anyone in the daytime let alone a woman alone at this time.
Not even the police came down here when it got dark, yet here she was walking alone at 1am in the morning.
Shadows moved through the alleys following her every step as she got farther and deeper into what some people would call hell.
At the end of the block she looked to her left and down a dark alley then slowly turned into it and kept on walking.
The shadows closed in on the entrance then disappeared into the darkness behind her following the clicking of her steps as their sound bounced off of the surrounding walls.
The clicking ended in the darkness to be replaced by a scream piercing the night.
Sam sat half asleep at his desk when Captain White walked up to him and asked where Jack was.
Sam told him he had already gone home, where he should be also but he had to finish a report first.
Then he asked the captain what was up.
Captain White dropped a folder in front of Sam and told him that they just got a call about a triple homicide down in the warehouse district he wanted Sam and Jack to go over and look at.
Sam opened the folder and took out the police report and started reading it when he stopped halfway and looked up at the Captain.
The Captain told him his eyes weren’t playing tricks and he did read that right.
Sam went back to the report until he finished it then placed it back in the folder and handed it back to the Captain and said they had enough work already with the murder they were working on.
The captain told him to keep the folder because he had just reassigned their case to two other detectives and this was now to be their top priority.
Sam opened the folder again and let his eyes drift to the middle of the police report once more.
Todd was walking out of his office when he stopped dead in his tracks as his eyes caught sight of Vanessa Smith walking up the hall towards him.
Every time he looked at her his blood began to boil over with lust.
His eyes traveled up her long legs past her large firm breasts that were busting to be free of her clothes, clothes that clung to her body as if they were her skin and her green eyes sparkled every time he looked into them.
She smiled as she got closer to him.
He shook off the trance he was in and smiled back at her as she walked past him, towards her office.
In the short time that she has been here since she transferred from L.A. she has been promoted three times and is now not only one of his bosses but only two rungs from the top seat of the company.
Before that she was in Atlanta and now she returns here to Boston where she first started in the company.
They say her mother worked for the company before her and her mother before that.
Vanessa sat in her office going over papers for one of the biggest deals the company has ever been involved with.
She knew if she could pull this off there was a good chance she could make vice president of the company and maybe one day be the head.
This was her goal and always had been from the start.
Her hand was starting to get itchy when her secretary called to tell her Todd was waiting outside to see her.
Todd was an annoying little turd she thought to herself as she moved her sleeve down closer to her hand and told her secretary to show him in.
Todd walked in holding a stack of papers and put them on her desk then told her that these were the projected figures she had asked for.
Picking up the top few files from the stack she gave them a quick look then smiled and thanked Todd for dropping them off.
Todd told her she was welcome and if there was anything she needed, anything at all, he was her man.
Glancing up at him she smiled again and told him it was nice to know that she could rely on him to always be available if she needed a man then looked down at what she was doing once more.
Todd turned and walked out of her office closing the door behind him.
Turd.
Sam banged his face into the door jam as he stumbled out of bed to get the door.
His brain was still in the throws of sleep as he unlocked the door with one hand and reached out at the table for his gun with the other.
“What the fuck are you doing still sleeping, it’s 6:30pm”, bellowed Jack?
Sam eyes looked like they were trying to burn a hole through Jack’s forehead, “What do you mean, you fuckoff early everyday while I, have to go back to the fucken precinct to file our report then try to get home by noon while you’re home snoring or eating out some whore on the rag you found on some street corner”?
“Another thing, you don’t have to keep ringing the damn doorbell".
"Once would be enough”.
“You’re lucky I didn’t shoot you”.
“Not with that you wouldn’t have unless you were planning on blinding me first”, answered Jack.
Sam looked down at his hand and he was holding a flashlight.
He tossed the flashlight back on the table then turned into the living room with Jack on his heels.
He walked into the kitchen then came out with a couple of cold beers and tossed one to Jack before he dropped the folder on the coffee table in front of him.
Jack looked down at the folder then back at Sam and asked him what that was.
Sam told him that it was their new bitch and their old one had been reassigned to Caldwell and Frost.
Jack opened the folder then picked up the police report and started reading it.
Halfway down he stopped and looked sideways at Sam who was sitting on the couch sipping his beer and staring at his partner.
“Is this for real”, Jack asked?
Sam nodded then got up and went into the washroom.
The door opened and everyone stopped to watch the beautiful woman walk in and take a seat at the bar.
Vanessa smiled to the bartender and asked him for a glass of red wine.
The bartender placed a glass in front of her then stepped away only to come back then filled it two thirds up before he left her enjoy her wine.
“ I don’t believe it, I mean I never thought I would see you here”.
Vanessa turned around and that turd Todd was standing behind her.
“This is, a surprise” she said and smiled back at him.
“ I come here every night after work to loosen up a bit before I go home to bed”.
“It helps rejuvenate me for the next day”.
“It does, well I could use a little rejuvenating myself”, said Vanessa.
“On no”, Todd stepped closer, “You are perfect right now”
“Do you mind if I sit with you”?
“Thank you for the compliment Todd but, I am only sitting here for just this one glass and I have to go to a previous engagement I have but, maybe we can have a drink some other time together”.
“That’s OK I understand but wait”, Todd took out his pen and using a napkin he wrote something down and passed it to Vanessa,” This is my cell phone number, if you ever want some company one day, you can give me a call”.
Vanessa took the paper and told him she will keep that in mind then finished her wine and left.
Jack popped open his beer and took a deep draw off of the can before he read the rest of the report then put it back down on the table and sank back into the pillows of the couch.
Sam came out with a towel wrapped around his waist and asked Jack what he thought about the report then picked up his beer.
Jack took another sip of beer then told Sam he thought it was all fucked.
He had never seen or heard anything like that in all his years as a cop.
Sam nodded in agreement with his partner, put the beer back down and walked into the bedroom to get dressed.
As he was sitting there waiting for Sam his cell phone went off.
“Yeah, it’s me, Jack”.
“When”?
“OK, we’ll get there ASAP”
Jack hing up the phone.
“Let’s go Sam, they found two more”.
Sam stepped out of the bedroom still tucking his shirt in his pants, “Same M.O.”?
“Yeah the same, all fucked up and no place to go but hell” Jack replied.
Jack and Sam stepped out of the car and duck under the yellow police tape marking off the crime scene then walked deep into the alleyway where they were met by the patrolmen who initially took the call.
They said that a street person fishing through a dumpster fell across the bodies
The coroner said that they had been dead at the most 24 hours.
They won’t know until they do a more thorough examination.
Sam stepped on one of the slots on the dumpster and pushed himself up to have a look at the victims.
Cause of death was obvious; their chests had been ripped open and their eyes........
Stepping back down he joined Jack in searching the immediate area.
Finding clues here was going to be a nightmare.
This was a high crime area and there wasn’t a corner that didn’t see its share of crime at least once a day.
Sam moved deeper into the alley and noticed a dark wet spot near the east building.
He bent down and using a tissue he touched the small puddle, it instantly turned the white tissue a crimson red, blood.
Jack moved up next to him and Sam showed him the tissue.
Jack stepped around and reached down and took a small piece of paper that was lying half into the puddle of blood.
Turning it over for inspection Jack saw a name and what looked like part of a phone number.
Taking a small bag from his jacket pocket he dropped it in and wandered around to see if there was anything else lying around.
Vanessa stood in the shower and let the hot water bounce off of her face and run down her body over her luscious breasts and long smooth legs.
She let her hands explore her perfect curves all the way down to the raging inferno between her legs.
Nothing felt better to her than touching perfection and she shrieked with delight when her own lust satisfied her needs.
She stepped out of the shower and left naked footprints leading into the bedroom where she stopped in front of the mirror to admire her body.
“Imagine that turd lusting for this and why shouldn’t he she thought”.
“I’m perfect”, she said as her fingers pinched her nipple sending a pulse back down her body.
Just then she thought of something.
Turning she left the bedroom and went to the living room and looked around.
Then she went to the front door and looked around there but it wasn’t there.
She had lost the paper with the turd’s phone number.
Vanessa turned to the mirror in the hallway and stared at her reflection and thought, black lace dress.
Black stockings
No panties
Black leather boots
Her skin began to darken and in seconds she was dressed in her new sultry skin.
Todd was sitting on his living room couch watching a porn movie while jerking off when there was a knock at the door.
Who the hell could that be he thought, then got up and went to the door.
Vanessa stood there dressing in a black dress looking beautiful.
“Are you going to ask me in”, she said to him.
Todd fumbled to the side and let Vanessa pass.
She walked into the living room and her ears turned her to the television set which had a woman on her knees sucking on a man’s large cock.
Todd walked passed her and quickly turned the TV off and told her it was just some program on TV.
She smiled at him and said that she understood completely.
She gets those urges sometimes also.
You know, to suck a big cock and her needs need to be satisfied when her hunger starts eating her up inside like it is now.
She stepped closer to him then reached down and grabbed his hard cock through his track pants.
Todd was lost in his dreams when he asked her how she knew where he lived?
She told him she was at the office and all of a sudden she had an itch that needed to be scratched and then remembered his offer.
So she looked up his address from work and decided to surprise him.
“Are you surprised”, she asked as she stroked his pants?
“Yes I am”, he said.
“Would you like another one”, she asked as her hand pushed down the front of his pants?
“Yes, yes I would”, he begged.
Sam was at his desk when the Captain walked up to him and asked him what was going on with the case.
Sam told him he had just gotten the lab report and it confirms the blood in the alley was that of the victims they found in the dumpster.
Both had died at the same time and in the same brutal manner.
They did have something that might be a lead though and were working on that now.
The Captain looked around and asked where Jack was.
Sam told him probably still sleeping.
The Captain went into a rant about how important this case was and his officers would rather sleep the day away then fuck around all night and that’s when they aren't taking a week off straight every month and “You are not fucking off this week unless you solve this shit first do you hear me”, he said.
Sam protested saying that he doesn’t take weekends off, just one lump break because he needs it that way.
The Captain told him he didn’t care; this was to big a case to stop working on because he needed his beauty break, then walked away.
Sam got up and went down to the lab to see how it was going with the paper with the number on it.
They had cleaned up most of it and they had the name Todd and five out of the first seven numbers of the phone number.
Taking down the numbers Sam went back upstairs to his computer and ran the first five numbers into a program and put in what little parameters he had then came up with the name of Todd Ferguson at Apt 34, 425 123 St.
Sam pulled the car over and walked up the steps to the front door.
He looked at his watch.
It was 6:30pm.
The sky above was black with dark rain clouds threatening to piss down on them.
He turned to the door and started pounding on it with a clenched fist until he heard someone fumbling with the lock on the other side and Jack opened the door.
“I thought I would return the favor and shake you awake”.
“You’re too late someone else shook me awake before you got here”.
Just then two brunettes walked out of the bathroom and to the door, blowing Jack kisses before they slipped out.
Sam looked at Jack and told him he’s lucky he doesn’t catch anything.
While Jack went to shower Sam went to the fridge and looked inside but there was nothing there.
Sam called out to the washroom asking Jack where the fucken beer was and Jack walked out dripping water all over and said he only drank his beer and didn’t buy any for home.
Sam just stared at Jack as he walked back into the bathroom then emerged with a bottle of tequila and passed it to Sam, “Here, I use this for mouthwash in the morning, it has a bit of a bite”.
Sam took the bottle and went to the cupboard and looked for a glass but there wasn’t any or plates for that matter.
In fact there wasn’t anything other that the visible furniture.
Sam shrugged and took a mouthful from the bottle.
When Jack came out dressed he passed him the bottle back then told him what the lab had produced and about Todd Ferguson.
They both agreed that they should start with Ferguson first and see if it was a lead or a dead end.
They pulled up to 425 123 St. and looked up at the five story apartment building where MR. Ferguson lived.
At the front door they rang apt 34 but there was no answer so they rang the super attendant’s apartment and a short round man appeared at the door to let them in.
They showed their badges and asked about Mr. Ferguson.
The super told them that her was a quiet tenant and had never had any complaints from anyone.
"Wait there was one the other night about him being loud".
He had to go up there to see what was happening but when he got there all he heard was the tail end noises of some rough sex coming through the door so I left.
It’s not like he has ever given him problems before.
They asked the Super to take them upstairs to Todd’s apartment and when they got there the Super opened the door.
They didn’t need a warrant as long as the super went in first.
He has the right to check the apartments for any trouble.
The Super unlocked the door and lead the way into the apartment.
Six feet in he stopped dead in his tracks then spun his marble shaped body around and ran streaming out the door.
Sam and Jack walked into the living room and looked down on the floor at what must have been the remains of Todd Ferguson.
Sam bent down to get a closer look at the body then said, "Just like the others".
"Not really, someone pulled this poor fucker's dick off too", Jack countered.
Vanessa noticed the commotion in the office through her glass walls and got up to go see what was going on.
She opened the door and as she stepped out she was greeted by the security guard and two men in suits with badges dangling from their pockets.
They stopped in front of her and introduced themselves as Detective Sam Greywolf and Detective Jack Dark.
They said they were there investigating the murder of one of their employees, a one Todd Ferguson.
She stood there blank for a second thinking, then said she knew a Todd that worked there but didn’t know his last name.
Sam took out a picture of the victim he got from the apartment and showed it to Vanessa.
She looked at the picture and said yes he did work there.
Then feigned a shocked look that came across her face.
She said she couldn’t believe that he was murdered then asked if they knew why or had any suspects.
The detectives said they were just looking for leads now.
They asked her if she knew of any of his friends or any people he might have associated with in the office.
Vanessa said she didn’t know much about Mr. Ferguson or the after work habits of any of the people who worked under her but they were welcome to walk around and ask any of the people in the office if it would help in catching the person or persons responsible for this tragedy.
The two detectives thank her for her help and spent the next hour walking around the office talking to all the employees trying to get any information they could.
When they were done they stopped by her office to tell her they were done and thanked her again then left.
Sam and Jack walked out of the building without saying a word then down and into the car.
It was Jack that ended the silence.
"That old woman on the first floor of Todd Ferguson’s apartment building said she saw a fancy hooker dressed in black pressed her button to get in the night he was killed but she said she didn’t buzz her in".
“Yeah but it doesn’t mean someone else didn’t”, Sam said.
“Do you think that broad up there could be a fancy enough hooker in a black dress”?
“ I know she's a bad actress trying to fool us with being shocked at Mr. Ferguson’s demise and pretending she didn't know him”, Jack said.
“Yeah, I saw that too”.
Why don’t we find a nice little dark corner to park for awhile and follow her around a bit to see what she does”, then Sam started the car and moved half a block away and hid in a side alley.
As Vanessa sat at her desk her hand started to itch again.
As she scratched it small flakes of dead skin fell off onto the desk.
She stared at them for a few seconds then violently brushed them onto the floor.
It was getting harder and harder.
She needed a purer source to sustain her for longer periods not this drug infested garbage that was around here.
She had lived for thousands of years and sat on the throwns of Queens over the generations across the world and then she came here half a millennia ago but it’s not like it used to be 400 years ago when she first arrived in the Boston area just before the witch trials.
She fed well then as she led the war against witches.
Oh what fun those days were as she burned and drowned innocence for her pleasure then fed off of their fear for nurishment and to retain her beauty.
Fools they were as there was only one witch to fear but instead tghey followed her to their doom.
She looked at the clock on the wall and saw that it would be another four hours before sunset.
She will have to go out to feed again tonight as it was her most holiest of days and one where her hunger will be at it’s most.
Halloween.
Tonight these humans will be out in force celebrating the day for her existence and feeding her at the same time.
Sam was dozing off when Jack knocked him to his senses once more.
Their suspect just walked out of the building and strolled down to the corner of the building where she got into a cab and drove off east towards the docks.
Sam pulled up within fifty feet of the cab and kept that distance as to not arouse any suspicion.
They drove for a couple of miles into a high crime area of town where the cab pulled over and the suspect exited the cab then walked into a bar.
Sam looked at Jack and they both wondered what someone like her was doing in a run down dump like that.
As they sat in the car pondering what she might be doing there they watched three young black men standing on the corner horsing around and occasionally someone would walk up to exchange something, probably drugs.
This went one for about an hour before she finally emerged from the bar, alone.
She stood outside of the place and listened to the offers thrown at her by the three young men at the corner.
She said something to them then began walking up the street and deeper into the neighborhood.
The three guys stopped what they were doing and slowly followed her, always looking around to make sure no one was watching.
As she walked up the sidewalk she took time to look up every alley she passed until she came to a dark dead end alley and walked up its path.
The three men stopped at its entrance and looked to see where she was going before their curiosity pushed them deeper into the darkness.
Jack wanted to rush down the alley before she was hurt by the three men but Sam stopped him
Sam said he had a feeling she was safe and they may be should be worrying about the three hoods that followed her up that alley.
He said they will wait sit here a little while and see what happens before they go in there charge like blind fools but they could get out of the car and move in a little closer to see if they could hear what they were saying in the alley.
Vanessa walked three quarters of the way down the alley and stopped under a flickering light and waited there for her guests to arrive.
Her wait wasn’t long as they closed in around her in a half circle.
“Wait did you say back there”, the one in the middle asked?
“You aren’t interested in boys, only men”.
“Well we’re here to show you what real men we are”, then without warning he lashed out with a vicious backhand striking Vanessa across the face but she hardly budged.
Her hand came up and touched where he had hit her and asked him, “Is that all you have, boy”?
He moved in quickly but not as fast as her hand, which shot out and grabbed him by the throat then tossed him across the alley and into the solid wall of the building.
His two friends rush at her but she met them with a swift rush of her own and slammed them back to the ground with the power of her outstretched palms.
Vanessa walked around the fallen men carefully planning her next move, as she needed them to feel terror before she could feed on their souls.
“Did you hear that”, Jack asked Sam?
Sam nodded and slow moved into the darkness of the alley with their guns drawn.
Jack moved across to the other wall to cover his partner from that angle as they disappeared in the night.
The three men had gathered themselves and were falling back into the alley to get away from Vanessa.
“What’s wrong boys, can’t handle a real woman”, she taunted as she followed them to the end of the alley?
“There is no place left to run to so I guess it’s time to find out how much of a man each of you is”.
The black clouds churned high above in the sky as Vanessa walked under a lamp and stood before them.
Her clothes disappeared through the pores of her skin and she now stood there naked before them.
She smiled as her hands cupped her breasts and looked at the three men cowering in the corner.
"Would you like some of this", she asked?
As they stood there staring at her they saw her fingernails getting longer as she seemed to grow bigger.
Her milky white skin began to darken to a hideous gray and her green eyes now burned with the color of hot coals.
They watched her grow to ten feet in height with ten-inch claws for fingers.
There was no place for them to run.
One was petrified where he stood and became her first meal as she grabbed him by the throat and held him five feet above the ground staring into his eyes.
She could see the terror in his eyes but she wanted more and drove her free hand into his chest and pulled out his heart then showed it to him.
She could hear him screaming through his eyes as her own lit up like the fires of Hades, burning through his eyes sockets and sucking out his soul to nourish her own.
She tossed the corpse to the ground then turned on the other of his two friends who were huddled in the corner screaming like those women she burned at the stake 400 years earlier.
Her lust for the kill poured down her legs as she grabbed the one who had hit her.
She grabbed his arm and slowly tore it from his body savoring each and every one of his screams until it was completely off his body then tossed it far behind her.
She loved what she saw in his eyes, so much so that she shoved her thumb in his right eye socket to see more of it before she sucked his soul out.
Sam and Jack could hear the screams coming from the back but still kept their pace.
They didn’t want to rush in and find themselves in trouble too.
As Sam made his way to the end of the alley his foot caught onto something and he looked down at the hand of a severed arm grasping at his foot.
He kicked it aside and looked at Jack who stood there not knowing if he should laugh or be horrified.
They continued to move forward until they got to the edge of the light and stood there staring at what looked like a huge ugly creature burning holes into some man it was holding up in the air with one arm.
Jack stepped out into the light first and without even giving a warning he fired into the creatures body three times.
Sam walk out and opened up hitting it three more times in the chest.
The creature turned and threw the man it held at Sam knocking him to the ground then turned on Jack and charged in.
Jack took dead aid and emptied his clip into its chest but it still came on and slammed him back into the wall.
Two shots rang out striking the creature in the back of the head but that didn’t stop her from turning around with a hard left arm sending Sam sailing through the air and into a garbage dumpster with the heavy metal lids crashing shut on top.
The creature then went back to Jack and picked him up by the throat and drove her right fist through his chest then dropped his dead body to the ground.
She can’t feed off of those who have no fear but she does enjoy the challenge and carnage.
Vanessa turned once more to the corner where her last course waited to be savored.
Reaching down she picked him up and as she looked into his eyes she could already see his life flashing before his eyes as he was having a heart attack so she took him then and left his smoking corpse right there.
She stepped back out of the shadows and into the light then touched her soft silky skin once more.
She had perfect breasts.
“What are you, a shape shifter”?
Vanessa whirled around and saw Jack standing there slipping a fresh clip into his gun.
“I killed you” she said.
Jack stepped closer to her and opened his jacket and she could see his wound healing up.
“You just can’t kill a vampire like that, I’m already dead”, he said before he raise his gun and fired two shots into her heart.
Vanessa looked down at the two neat little holes below her left breast and smiled then said, ”You just can’t kill the Queen of Witches that easy”, and he watched the two holes heal up before his eyes.
Just then the clouds opened up and the alleyway filled with the light of the full moon.
Vanessa lunged forward grabbing Jack then tossing him up high against the opposite wall.
She then ran in and kicked him six feet up in the air and smashed him on the way down with a vicious right fist.
She picked him up and threw him across to the other side this time then went after him and held him up.
She looked into his eyes and asked him if he would still be alive if she tore his limbs off then started pulling on his arm.
A loud crashing noise erupted from behind them and then one of the garbage dumpster lids landed against the wall across from them.
Vanessa turned and looked into the darkness but didn’t see anything but then out of nowhere came a raging beast leaping up on her then tearing into her flesh with its long fangs.
Pulling it off of her she threw him down but he seemed to bounce and was back on her once more.
Again she got him off but this time moved to avoid his counter attack.
The beast stood fifteen feet away from her snarling like a madness had taken over him.
“Werewolf”, she said under her breath as Sam charged down at her once more.
She sidestepped his charge then grabbed him by the throat from behind as he passed her and was trying to pry his head off when Jack stepped up to shoot her through the elbow breaking her hold on Sam but he paid for it when she kicked him in the balls sending him eight feet up into the air and crashing to the ground after.
Sam swung around and got on her back then bit into her throat from the side but she reached back and yanked him over onto the ground where she beat her fists into him then picked him up and turned him to face Jack as he was slowly standing up once more.
The dark menacing clouds had covered the sky once more hiding the moon's light.
Sam was now in his normal human state as he stood there at her mercy.
“Now watch me kill your partner”, she smiled.
Sam looked at Jack and said, “EYES, the eyes”.
Jack looked at Sam then at her before he swung up his gun and fired a shot into her head hitting her in the right eye.
She let Sam go and screamed as she stumbled back then Jack took a step forward and blew out her left eye.
Vanessa dropped to her knees as her eye sockets started shooting fire out of them which engulfed her head and then the rest of her body until all that remained was a smoldering pile of ash on the ground.
Sam and Jack stood there staring at the whole mess in the alley.
“How are we going to explain this to the Captain”, asked Jack?
“Same way we always do, bad drugs”.
Have a Spooky Day
Walker
.................................
This was no place for anyone in the daytime let alone a woman alone at this time.
Not even the police came down here when it got dark, yet here she was walking alone at 1am in the morning.
Shadows moved through the alleys following her every step as she got farther and deeper into what some people would call hell.
At the end of the block she looked to her left and down a dark alley then slowly turned into it and kept on walking.
The shadows closed in on the entrance then disappeared into the darkness behind her following the clicking of her steps as their sound bounced off of the surrounding walls.
The clicking ended in the darkness to be replaced by a scream piercing the night.
Sam sat half asleep at his desk when Captain White walked up to him and asked where Jack was.
Sam told him he had already gone home, where he should be also but he had to finish a report first.
Then he asked the captain what was up.
Captain White dropped a folder in front of Sam and told him that they just got a call about a triple homicide down in the warehouse district he wanted Sam and Jack to go over and look at.
Sam opened the folder and took out the police report and started reading it when he stopped halfway and looked up at the Captain.
The Captain told him his eyes weren’t playing tricks and he did read that right.
Sam went back to the report until he finished it then placed it back in the folder and handed it back to the Captain and said they had enough work already with the murder they were working on.
The captain told him to keep the folder because he had just reassigned their case to two other detectives and this was now to be their top priority.
Sam opened the folder again and let his eyes drift to the middle of the police report once more.
Todd was walking out of his office when he stopped dead in his tracks as his eyes caught sight of Vanessa Smith walking up the hall towards him.
Every time he looked at her his blood began to boil over with lust.
His eyes traveled up her long legs past her large firm breasts that were busting to be free of her clothes, clothes that clung to her body as if they were her skin and her green eyes sparkled every time he looked into them.
She smiled as she got closer to him.
He shook off the trance he was in and smiled back at her as she walked past him, towards her office.
In the short time that she has been here since she transferred from L.A. she has been promoted three times and is now not only one of his bosses but only two rungs from the top seat of the company.
Before that she was in Atlanta and now she returns here to Boston where she first started in the company.
They say her mother worked for the company before her and her mother before that.
Vanessa sat in her office going over papers for one of the biggest deals the company has ever been involved with.
She knew if she could pull this off there was a good chance she could make vice president of the company and maybe one day be the head.
This was her goal and always had been from the start.
Her hand was starting to get itchy when her secretary called to tell her Todd was waiting outside to see her.
Todd was an annoying little turd she thought to herself as she moved her sleeve down closer to her hand and told her secretary to show him in.
Todd walked in holding a stack of papers and put them on her desk then told her that these were the projected figures she had asked for.
Picking up the top few files from the stack she gave them a quick look then smiled and thanked Todd for dropping them off.
Todd told her she was welcome and if there was anything she needed, anything at all, he was her man.
Glancing up at him she smiled again and told him it was nice to know that she could rely on him to always be available if she needed a man then looked down at what she was doing once more.
Todd turned and walked out of her office closing the door behind him.
Turd.
Sam banged his face into the door jam as he stumbled out of bed to get the door.
His brain was still in the throws of sleep as he unlocked the door with one hand and reached out at the table for his gun with the other.
“What the fuck are you doing still sleeping, it’s 6:30pm”, bellowed Jack?
Sam eyes looked like they were trying to burn a hole through Jack’s forehead, “What do you mean, you fuckoff early everyday while I, have to go back to the fucken precinct to file our report then try to get home by noon while you’re home snoring or eating out some whore on the rag you found on some street corner”?
“Another thing, you don’t have to keep ringing the damn doorbell".
"Once would be enough”.
“You’re lucky I didn’t shoot you”.
“Not with that you wouldn’t have unless you were planning on blinding me first”, answered Jack.
Sam looked down at his hand and he was holding a flashlight.
He tossed the flashlight back on the table then turned into the living room with Jack on his heels.
He walked into the kitchen then came out with a couple of cold beers and tossed one to Jack before he dropped the folder on the coffee table in front of him.
Jack looked down at the folder then back at Sam and asked him what that was.
Sam told him that it was their new bitch and their old one had been reassigned to Caldwell and Frost.
Jack opened the folder then picked up the police report and started reading it.
Halfway down he stopped and looked sideways at Sam who was sitting on the couch sipping his beer and staring at his partner.
“Is this for real”, Jack asked?
Sam nodded then got up and went into the washroom.
The door opened and everyone stopped to watch the beautiful woman walk in and take a seat at the bar.
Vanessa smiled to the bartender and asked him for a glass of red wine.
The bartender placed a glass in front of her then stepped away only to come back then filled it two thirds up before he left her enjoy her wine.
“ I don’t believe it, I mean I never thought I would see you here”.
Vanessa turned around and that turd Todd was standing behind her.
“This is, a surprise” she said and smiled back at him.
“ I come here every night after work to loosen up a bit before I go home to bed”.
“It helps rejuvenate me for the next day”.
“It does, well I could use a little rejuvenating myself”, said Vanessa.
“On no”, Todd stepped closer, “You are perfect right now”
“Do you mind if I sit with you”?
“Thank you for the compliment Todd but, I am only sitting here for just this one glass and I have to go to a previous engagement I have but, maybe we can have a drink some other time together”.
“That’s OK I understand but wait”, Todd took out his pen and using a napkin he wrote something down and passed it to Vanessa,” This is my cell phone number, if you ever want some company one day, you can give me a call”.
Vanessa took the paper and told him she will keep that in mind then finished her wine and left.
Jack popped open his beer and took a deep draw off of the can before he read the rest of the report then put it back down on the table and sank back into the pillows of the couch.
Sam came out with a towel wrapped around his waist and asked Jack what he thought about the report then picked up his beer.
Jack took another sip of beer then told Sam he thought it was all fucked.
He had never seen or heard anything like that in all his years as a cop.
Sam nodded in agreement with his partner, put the beer back down and walked into the bedroom to get dressed.
As he was sitting there waiting for Sam his cell phone went off.
“Yeah, it’s me, Jack”.
“When”?
“OK, we’ll get there ASAP”
Jack hing up the phone.
“Let’s go Sam, they found two more”.
Sam stepped out of the bedroom still tucking his shirt in his pants, “Same M.O.”?
“Yeah the same, all fucked up and no place to go but hell” Jack replied.
Jack and Sam stepped out of the car and duck under the yellow police tape marking off the crime scene then walked deep into the alleyway where they were met by the patrolmen who initially took the call.
They said that a street person fishing through a dumpster fell across the bodies
The coroner said that they had been dead at the most 24 hours.
They won’t know until they do a more thorough examination.
Sam stepped on one of the slots on the dumpster and pushed himself up to have a look at the victims.
Cause of death was obvious; their chests had been ripped open and their eyes........
Stepping back down he joined Jack in searching the immediate area.
Finding clues here was going to be a nightmare.
This was a high crime area and there wasn’t a corner that didn’t see its share of crime at least once a day.
Sam moved deeper into the alley and noticed a dark wet spot near the east building.
He bent down and using a tissue he touched the small puddle, it instantly turned the white tissue a crimson red, blood.
Jack moved up next to him and Sam showed him the tissue.
Jack stepped around and reached down and took a small piece of paper that was lying half into the puddle of blood.
Turning it over for inspection Jack saw a name and what looked like part of a phone number.
Taking a small bag from his jacket pocket he dropped it in and wandered around to see if there was anything else lying around.
Vanessa stood in the shower and let the hot water bounce off of her face and run down her body over her luscious breasts and long smooth legs.
She let her hands explore her perfect curves all the way down to the raging inferno between her legs.
Nothing felt better to her than touching perfection and she shrieked with delight when her own lust satisfied her needs.
She stepped out of the shower and left naked footprints leading into the bedroom where she stopped in front of the mirror to admire her body.
“Imagine that turd lusting for this and why shouldn’t he she thought”.
“I’m perfect”, she said as her fingers pinched her nipple sending a pulse back down her body.
Just then she thought of something.
Turning she left the bedroom and went to the living room and looked around.
Then she went to the front door and looked around there but it wasn’t there.
She had lost the paper with the turd’s phone number.
Vanessa turned to the mirror in the hallway and stared at her reflection and thought, black lace dress.
Black stockings
No panties
Black leather boots
Her skin began to darken and in seconds she was dressed in her new sultry skin.
Todd was sitting on his living room couch watching a porn movie while jerking off when there was a knock at the door.
Who the hell could that be he thought, then got up and went to the door.
Vanessa stood there dressing in a black dress looking beautiful.
“Are you going to ask me in”, she said to him.
Todd fumbled to the side and let Vanessa pass.
She walked into the living room and her ears turned her to the television set which had a woman on her knees sucking on a man’s large cock.
Todd walked passed her and quickly turned the TV off and told her it was just some program on TV.
She smiled at him and said that she understood completely.
She gets those urges sometimes also.
You know, to suck a big cock and her needs need to be satisfied when her hunger starts eating her up inside like it is now.
She stepped closer to him then reached down and grabbed his hard cock through his track pants.
Todd was lost in his dreams when he asked her how she knew where he lived?
She told him she was at the office and all of a sudden she had an itch that needed to be scratched and then remembered his offer.
So she looked up his address from work and decided to surprise him.
“Are you surprised”, she asked as she stroked his pants?
“Yes I am”, he said.
“Would you like another one”, she asked as her hand pushed down the front of his pants?
“Yes, yes I would”, he begged.
Sam was at his desk when the Captain walked up to him and asked him what was going on with the case.
Sam told him he had just gotten the lab report and it confirms the blood in the alley was that of the victims they found in the dumpster.
Both had died at the same time and in the same brutal manner.
They did have something that might be a lead though and were working on that now.
The Captain looked around and asked where Jack was.
Sam told him probably still sleeping.
The Captain went into a rant about how important this case was and his officers would rather sleep the day away then fuck around all night and that’s when they aren't taking a week off straight every month and “You are not fucking off this week unless you solve this shit first do you hear me”, he said.
Sam protested saying that he doesn’t take weekends off, just one lump break because he needs it that way.
The Captain told him he didn’t care; this was to big a case to stop working on because he needed his beauty break, then walked away.
Sam got up and went down to the lab to see how it was going with the paper with the number on it.
They had cleaned up most of it and they had the name Todd and five out of the first seven numbers of the phone number.
Taking down the numbers Sam went back upstairs to his computer and ran the first five numbers into a program and put in what little parameters he had then came up with the name of Todd Ferguson at Apt 34, 425 123 St.
Sam pulled the car over and walked up the steps to the front door.
He looked at his watch.
It was 6:30pm.
The sky above was black with dark rain clouds threatening to piss down on them.
He turned to the door and started pounding on it with a clenched fist until he heard someone fumbling with the lock on the other side and Jack opened the door.
“I thought I would return the favor and shake you awake”.
“You’re too late someone else shook me awake before you got here”.
Just then two brunettes walked out of the bathroom and to the door, blowing Jack kisses before they slipped out.
Sam looked at Jack and told him he’s lucky he doesn’t catch anything.
While Jack went to shower Sam went to the fridge and looked inside but there was nothing there.
Sam called out to the washroom asking Jack where the fucken beer was and Jack walked out dripping water all over and said he only drank his beer and didn’t buy any for home.
Sam just stared at Jack as he walked back into the bathroom then emerged with a bottle of tequila and passed it to Sam, “Here, I use this for mouthwash in the morning, it has a bit of a bite”.
Sam took the bottle and went to the cupboard and looked for a glass but there wasn’t any or plates for that matter.
In fact there wasn’t anything other that the visible furniture.
Sam shrugged and took a mouthful from the bottle.
When Jack came out dressed he passed him the bottle back then told him what the lab had produced and about Todd Ferguson.
They both agreed that they should start with Ferguson first and see if it was a lead or a dead end.
They pulled up to 425 123 St. and looked up at the five story apartment building where MR. Ferguson lived.
At the front door they rang apt 34 but there was no answer so they rang the super attendant’s apartment and a short round man appeared at the door to let them in.
They showed their badges and asked about Mr. Ferguson.
The super told them that her was a quiet tenant and had never had any complaints from anyone.
"Wait there was one the other night about him being loud".
He had to go up there to see what was happening but when he got there all he heard was the tail end noises of some rough sex coming through the door so I left.
It’s not like he has ever given him problems before.
They asked the Super to take them upstairs to Todd’s apartment and when they got there the Super opened the door.
They didn’t need a warrant as long as the super went in first.
He has the right to check the apartments for any trouble.
The Super unlocked the door and lead the way into the apartment.
Six feet in he stopped dead in his tracks then spun his marble shaped body around and ran streaming out the door.
Sam and Jack walked into the living room and looked down on the floor at what must have been the remains of Todd Ferguson.
Sam bent down to get a closer look at the body then said, "Just like the others".
"Not really, someone pulled this poor fucker's dick off too", Jack countered.
Vanessa noticed the commotion in the office through her glass walls and got up to go see what was going on.
She opened the door and as she stepped out she was greeted by the security guard and two men in suits with badges dangling from their pockets.
They stopped in front of her and introduced themselves as Detective Sam Greywolf and Detective Jack Dark.
They said they were there investigating the murder of one of their employees, a one Todd Ferguson.
She stood there blank for a second thinking, then said she knew a Todd that worked there but didn’t know his last name.
Sam took out a picture of the victim he got from the apartment and showed it to Vanessa.
She looked at the picture and said yes he did work there.
Then feigned a shocked look that came across her face.
She said she couldn’t believe that he was murdered then asked if they knew why or had any suspects.
The detectives said they were just looking for leads now.
They asked her if she knew of any of his friends or any people he might have associated with in the office.
Vanessa said she didn’t know much about Mr. Ferguson or the after work habits of any of the people who worked under her but they were welcome to walk around and ask any of the people in the office if it would help in catching the person or persons responsible for this tragedy.
The two detectives thank her for her help and spent the next hour walking around the office talking to all the employees trying to get any information they could.
When they were done they stopped by her office to tell her they were done and thanked her again then left.
Sam and Jack walked out of the building without saying a word then down and into the car.
It was Jack that ended the silence.
"That old woman on the first floor of Todd Ferguson’s apartment building said she saw a fancy hooker dressed in black pressed her button to get in the night he was killed but she said she didn’t buzz her in".
“Yeah but it doesn’t mean someone else didn’t”, Sam said.
“Do you think that broad up there could be a fancy enough hooker in a black dress”?
“ I know she's a bad actress trying to fool us with being shocked at Mr. Ferguson’s demise and pretending she didn't know him”, Jack said.
“Yeah, I saw that too”.
Why don’t we find a nice little dark corner to park for awhile and follow her around a bit to see what she does”, then Sam started the car and moved half a block away and hid in a side alley.
As Vanessa sat at her desk her hand started to itch again.
As she scratched it small flakes of dead skin fell off onto the desk.
She stared at them for a few seconds then violently brushed them onto the floor.
It was getting harder and harder.
She needed a purer source to sustain her for longer periods not this drug infested garbage that was around here.
She had lived for thousands of years and sat on the throwns of Queens over the generations across the world and then she came here half a millennia ago but it’s not like it used to be 400 years ago when she first arrived in the Boston area just before the witch trials.
She fed well then as she led the war against witches.
Oh what fun those days were as she burned and drowned innocence for her pleasure then fed off of their fear for nurishment and to retain her beauty.
Fools they were as there was only one witch to fear but instead tghey followed her to their doom.
She looked at the clock on the wall and saw that it would be another four hours before sunset.
She will have to go out to feed again tonight as it was her most holiest of days and one where her hunger will be at it’s most.
Halloween.
Tonight these humans will be out in force celebrating the day for her existence and feeding her at the same time.
Sam was dozing off when Jack knocked him to his senses once more.
Their suspect just walked out of the building and strolled down to the corner of the building where she got into a cab and drove off east towards the docks.
Sam pulled up within fifty feet of the cab and kept that distance as to not arouse any suspicion.
They drove for a couple of miles into a high crime area of town where the cab pulled over and the suspect exited the cab then walked into a bar.
Sam looked at Jack and they both wondered what someone like her was doing in a run down dump like that.
As they sat in the car pondering what she might be doing there they watched three young black men standing on the corner horsing around and occasionally someone would walk up to exchange something, probably drugs.
This went one for about an hour before she finally emerged from the bar, alone.
She stood outside of the place and listened to the offers thrown at her by the three young men at the corner.
She said something to them then began walking up the street and deeper into the neighborhood.
The three guys stopped what they were doing and slowly followed her, always looking around to make sure no one was watching.
As she walked up the sidewalk she took time to look up every alley she passed until she came to a dark dead end alley and walked up its path.
The three men stopped at its entrance and looked to see where she was going before their curiosity pushed them deeper into the darkness.
Jack wanted to rush down the alley before she was hurt by the three men but Sam stopped him
Sam said he had a feeling she was safe and they may be should be worrying about the three hoods that followed her up that alley.
He said they will wait sit here a little while and see what happens before they go in there charge like blind fools but they could get out of the car and move in a little closer to see if they could hear what they were saying in the alley.
Vanessa walked three quarters of the way down the alley and stopped under a flickering light and waited there for her guests to arrive.
Her wait wasn’t long as they closed in around her in a half circle.
“Wait did you say back there”, the one in the middle asked?
“You aren’t interested in boys, only men”.
“Well we’re here to show you what real men we are”, then without warning he lashed out with a vicious backhand striking Vanessa across the face but she hardly budged.
Her hand came up and touched where he had hit her and asked him, “Is that all you have, boy”?
He moved in quickly but not as fast as her hand, which shot out and grabbed him by the throat then tossed him across the alley and into the solid wall of the building.
His two friends rush at her but she met them with a swift rush of her own and slammed them back to the ground with the power of her outstretched palms.
Vanessa walked around the fallen men carefully planning her next move, as she needed them to feel terror before she could feed on their souls.
“Did you hear that”, Jack asked Sam?
Sam nodded and slow moved into the darkness of the alley with their guns drawn.
Jack moved across to the other wall to cover his partner from that angle as they disappeared in the night.
The three men had gathered themselves and were falling back into the alley to get away from Vanessa.
“What’s wrong boys, can’t handle a real woman”, she taunted as she followed them to the end of the alley?
“There is no place left to run to so I guess it’s time to find out how much of a man each of you is”.
The black clouds churned high above in the sky as Vanessa walked under a lamp and stood before them.
Her clothes disappeared through the pores of her skin and she now stood there naked before them.
She smiled as her hands cupped her breasts and looked at the three men cowering in the corner.
"Would you like some of this", she asked?
As they stood there staring at her they saw her fingernails getting longer as she seemed to grow bigger.
Her milky white skin began to darken to a hideous gray and her green eyes now burned with the color of hot coals.
They watched her grow to ten feet in height with ten-inch claws for fingers.
There was no place for them to run.
One was petrified where he stood and became her first meal as she grabbed him by the throat and held him five feet above the ground staring into his eyes.
She could see the terror in his eyes but she wanted more and drove her free hand into his chest and pulled out his heart then showed it to him.
She could hear him screaming through his eyes as her own lit up like the fires of Hades, burning through his eyes sockets and sucking out his soul to nourish her own.
She tossed the corpse to the ground then turned on the other of his two friends who were huddled in the corner screaming like those women she burned at the stake 400 years earlier.
Her lust for the kill poured down her legs as she grabbed the one who had hit her.
She grabbed his arm and slowly tore it from his body savoring each and every one of his screams until it was completely off his body then tossed it far behind her.
She loved what she saw in his eyes, so much so that she shoved her thumb in his right eye socket to see more of it before she sucked his soul out.
Sam and Jack could hear the screams coming from the back but still kept their pace.
They didn’t want to rush in and find themselves in trouble too.
As Sam made his way to the end of the alley his foot caught onto something and he looked down at the hand of a severed arm grasping at his foot.
He kicked it aside and looked at Jack who stood there not knowing if he should laugh or be horrified.
They continued to move forward until they got to the edge of the light and stood there staring at what looked like a huge ugly creature burning holes into some man it was holding up in the air with one arm.
Jack stepped out into the light first and without even giving a warning he fired into the creatures body three times.
Sam walk out and opened up hitting it three more times in the chest.
The creature turned and threw the man it held at Sam knocking him to the ground then turned on Jack and charged in.
Jack took dead aid and emptied his clip into its chest but it still came on and slammed him back into the wall.
Two shots rang out striking the creature in the back of the head but that didn’t stop her from turning around with a hard left arm sending Sam sailing through the air and into a garbage dumpster with the heavy metal lids crashing shut on top.
The creature then went back to Jack and picked him up by the throat and drove her right fist through his chest then dropped his dead body to the ground.
She can’t feed off of those who have no fear but she does enjoy the challenge and carnage.
Vanessa turned once more to the corner where her last course waited to be savored.
Reaching down she picked him up and as she looked into his eyes she could already see his life flashing before his eyes as he was having a heart attack so she took him then and left his smoking corpse right there.
She stepped back out of the shadows and into the light then touched her soft silky skin once more.
She had perfect breasts.
“What are you, a shape shifter”?
Vanessa whirled around and saw Jack standing there slipping a fresh clip into his gun.
“I killed you” she said.
Jack stepped closer to her and opened his jacket and she could see his wound healing up.
“You just can’t kill a vampire like that, I’m already dead”, he said before he raise his gun and fired two shots into her heart.
Vanessa looked down at the two neat little holes below her left breast and smiled then said, ”You just can’t kill the Queen of Witches that easy”, and he watched the two holes heal up before his eyes.
Just then the clouds opened up and the alleyway filled with the light of the full moon.
Vanessa lunged forward grabbing Jack then tossing him up high against the opposite wall.
She then ran in and kicked him six feet up in the air and smashed him on the way down with a vicious right fist.
She picked him up and threw him across to the other side this time then went after him and held him up.
She looked into his eyes and asked him if he would still be alive if she tore his limbs off then started pulling on his arm.
A loud crashing noise erupted from behind them and then one of the garbage dumpster lids landed against the wall across from them.
Vanessa turned and looked into the darkness but didn’t see anything but then out of nowhere came a raging beast leaping up on her then tearing into her flesh with its long fangs.
Pulling it off of her she threw him down but he seemed to bounce and was back on her once more.
Again she got him off but this time moved to avoid his counter attack.
The beast stood fifteen feet away from her snarling like a madness had taken over him.
“Werewolf”, she said under her breath as Sam charged down at her once more.
She sidestepped his charge then grabbed him by the throat from behind as he passed her and was trying to pry his head off when Jack stepped up to shoot her through the elbow breaking her hold on Sam but he paid for it when she kicked him in the balls sending him eight feet up into the air and crashing to the ground after.
Sam swung around and got on her back then bit into her throat from the side but she reached back and yanked him over onto the ground where she beat her fists into him then picked him up and turned him to face Jack as he was slowly standing up once more.
The dark menacing clouds had covered the sky once more hiding the moon's light.
Sam was now in his normal human state as he stood there at her mercy.
“Now watch me kill your partner”, she smiled.
Sam looked at Jack and said, “EYES, the eyes”.
Jack looked at Sam then at her before he swung up his gun and fired a shot into her head hitting her in the right eye.
She let Sam go and screamed as she stumbled back then Jack took a step forward and blew out her left eye.
Vanessa dropped to her knees as her eye sockets started shooting fire out of them which engulfed her head and then the rest of her body until all that remained was a smoldering pile of ash on the ground.
Sam and Jack stood there staring at the whole mess in the alley.
“How are we going to explain this to the Captain”, asked Jack?
“Same way we always do, bad drugs”.
Have a Spooky Day
Walker
