Crystal's POV:
The vampire moved swiftly and I followed closely behind him. His body slithered as quickly as a black shadow. He briskly entered a forest, rushing into the dense woods.
It was getting darker now, and visibility was dropping. The vampire ran through the trees, and soon disappeared under the cover of the darkness.
I turned back into my human form and entered the forest as well. The dark forest was covered in a thick layer of miasma, and the branches of the trees were connected to each other. They looked as if they had eyes, scrutinizing the people passing by closely.
I was soon engulfed by the misty miasma. I felt as if I was going to lose all sense of space and time.
I walked deeper into the forest, and then several human silhouettes appeared on the ground in front of me. As I got closer, I realized they were several corpses that were strewn about on the fallen leaves.
I crouched down and turned over one body that had been face-down, wanting to get a look at his face. I spotted two huge bloody holes in the corpse's neck.
I got to my feet and turned over several other bodies. All these stiff corpses had two black holes in their necks and their bodies had been clearly sucked dry. Obviously, the vampires had murdered them.
I was a little annoyed and smashed my fist into the ground heavily. Blair was right. The vampires had managed to sneak into the imperial city. I didn't know what had befallen Rufus, and that made me extremely worried.
The feeling of uneasiness intensified. Although Rufus had brought a huge platoon of soldiers with him and they were stronger than the spearhead army, I was still eager to locate him.
