Vampires do not die. That is what I learnt when I became a
vampire in the late 1800s. I was very happy when I found out that I would be
young forever as I would hate to be Tithonus. But then I was young and
inexperienced and could not foresee my future in the 21st Century.
The 21st Century is a very different ball game altogether. Throughout the 20th Century, we vampires had had fun. We are generally harmless as opposed to how we are portrayed in Hollywood movies. We only hunt for food and in that too we are very gentle. We will make you unconscious and drink only a part of your blood through small cuts. When you will wake up, which is generally a few hours later, all you will feel is a bit dizzy. We vampires were originally mere mortals but were converted into vampires through a process that is a trade secret.
I was a peasant boy from Italy only having turned 18 when I became a vampire. The times were great and our numbers strong. We roamed from country to country and even fought in the two World Wars. The wars are always a feast for us as men kill men and we get to drink the blood. No one seems to mind that. I have been to almost all the countries in the world, met numerous people and I know several languages. A century is a long time but it passes so quickly. I remember everything I did ever since I became a vampire, but I shall not bore you with that. Ah, they were good times….
But these days it is very difficult to make two ends meet. Even though we are vampires, we love people and we love to be in their company. Humans show so many emotions, eat so many different foods, drink so many different drinks and they have so many ingenuous ways to have fun. But we vampires began to shun their company almost overnight during the 1990s. This was the time when glasses and mirrors were used widely for construction. You must know that we have no reflection and so does everyone. As more and more places began to have buildings and houses with mirrors, it was becoming difficult for us to be with people lest our identity be revealed.
By the 21st Century, it has become impossible for us to go out and meet people. We now stick to the back alleys. Now here we faced another problem. Get hold of a fellow who comes to the back alley and you could be sure that he takes drugs or drinks too much. Their blood is already poisoned. This we learnt to our dismay when a large number of us fell very sick after drinking this poisonous blood. Initially we did not know what was wrong. So we went ahead and made a scientist a vampire. We provided him with all the facilities necessary and after a year of research he came up with this reason. So now when we get a fellow in the back alley we have to ask him several questions about whether he or she takes drugs or drinks, check for needle marks, and mostly we find that their blood is poisoned. Many of us are very weak and sick due to the lack of blood. Lack of blood can even lead to our death. Many of my companions have died out of thirst and we are only a handful left to fend for ourselves.
Why do the youth of today take poisonous drugs, smoke and drink so much? Why can they not be like their ancestors who had so many other ways to enjoy themselves other than taking drugs? Why do they not play games? Why do they spend so much money on buying drugs and drinks when they can eat healthy food with that money and live longer? Why are they depriving us from our life blood?
We cannot grab hold of people and drink their blood because if people find out that we exist, they are going to burn us to death with no sympathy at all. Men can be merciless you know. The poisoned blood is also present in the countryside these days. Humans have become very inhuman. They no longer wage proper wars so that we can drink the blood. We follow the news minutely and whenever a war breaks out we run towards that location but even before we reach the war zone, the war is over. We got a lease of life when the USA attacked Afghanistan and Iraq, and we will support them if they want to wage another war with Iran or anyone. We need blood or else we shall perish.
Vampires do not die, but when they do not get blood for long, they die. Me and several others are at our death beds. Some are terminally sick after drinking poisoned blood. It is our humble request to mankind to become human once more. You have lost all your human instincts. You do not kill or slay anymore, you do not spill blood anymore. Look at your illustrious predecessors who ruled by the blade of his sword. Why do you not do the same? Become humans, wage wars, and save the life of this poor vampire.
