She's either really pissed or she wants you dead. Or both. Either way you're not gonna let some girl kick your ass right? She goes for an uppercut but you manage to somehow block it and hold on to her arm as you do a backflip that you know you couldn't do as a mortal. You land on top of her in a rather compromising situation. Your male brain decides to ponder on this and you hesitate. Alice utilizes this opportunity and she pins you in just a few movements.

"You'll do. Your movements suck but you have potential as a fighter. Pass."

"Wait that was a test?"

"Yeah, the test was to see if you would respond accordingly when someone you recognize attacks you. It was also to see if you were an OK fighter. You can improve on the fighting part so I'll teach you how but you still pass this test. Now on to the next test, there's only two more including the next so don't fuck up otherwise we have to kill you."

"What the fuck Alice? What's this test?"

"How thirsty are you?"

With her mentioning you notice just how thirsty you are. You throat feels like it just gargled sand and you think that you need water... but the thought actually repulses you. Then you think about blood... and the thirst worsens.

"WELL GET USED TO BEING THIRSTY, I'LL SEE YOU IN A WEEK."

Alice then dashes out the door which you realize needs no knob because like the rest of the stuff in this place it's all future-y and goes upwards into the ceiling before crashing down. You try to run after Alice but the door is locked behind her.

You then realize what the test is. One week with no blood whatsoever.

You stay Calm

You relax and take a few deep breaths. Panicking will not help you in this situation so you decide to somehow pass the time without knowing it. You ponder how to do this and finally you realize that you should meditate.

You get into a comfortable sitting position on the cold steel floor and you delve into the depths of your mind. You dive right past all of your memories, repressed or otherwise. You keep going and going, sifting through all of your mental baggage until you find the center of your own psyche.

You then enter your mind's very core...

You what's in it?

Your are now in a bright grass field. As far as the eye can see there is only green grass and bright light. There is a gentle breeze blowing and you feel at peace. The light, although quite bright, is not sunlight and is oddly comforting. You decide to lay down and bask in this peaceful inner world of yours.

Suddenly you hear a shriek of terror... a woman's. You immediately dash into the direction of the scream and you find Alice being chased by a huge monster. It is covered in scales and has vicious looking claws. What do you do?

You save Her

You decide to forgo danger and you run in to help your creator. You then have a startling realization. This is YOUR dreamworld and you can do whatever the hell you want to in it. So using your imagination you think of the beast exploding into a billion little bits and guess what? you were right. Exactly that happens.

You turn to Alice but at that moment the real world Alice is trying to wake you up. Exiting the dreamworld you wake up and see Alice's eyes staring into yours and, well, lets say you decide to take advantage of the situation. You reach forward and kiss Alice. She is genuinely surprised but she doesn't stop you. when the kiss is over she slaps you.

"What the hell Alice!?"

"First of all you pass the seven days challenge. Second only do that when I give you permission."

You are frustrated and angry but at the same time glad, because she didn't say she didn't like you. Only that she's not ready. Oh and you passed so you congratulate yourself.

"Is there another test I should worry about?"

"Oh, you have only just begun."

At saying this Alice has a terrifying grin and you feel your spine freeze up. Welcome to hell, my friend is all you can think.

You hell freezes over

as Alice trains you in combat and instructs you on your vampiric powers. You learn that as a vampire you are entitled to certain abilities that would normally be considered as magic. You can levitate, blend with shadows, you can even dive into a person's mind and drive them insane.

She teaches you all of this by using you as an example.

You might have cared about this if you weren't plagued by thoughts normally plaguing the male mind. She even uses this as an advantage to keep herself out of reach but to make you reach anyways. She makes it seem like she'll accept you as a lover, but then she pushes the bar even higher and higher until one day, you decide to train on an off day from Alice to attempt and beat her in at her own game. You train for quite a while using a technique Alice taught you about slowing time down using your speed and train. Using this technique one hour gets slowed down into about 15 minutes. eventually 6 hours later you deem yourself ready. Tomorrow you finally get your prize.

You tomorrow

It is exceptionally early when you wake up to wait for Alice. You decide to think about what you learned, not just the combat but the politics and heritage and culture of the vampire race.

Alice told you (between punches) that there are two major warring vampire factions. Basically they are two feuding families that haven't set aside their differences to help stop the end to the vampire race. All they care about is destroying the each-other. Alice then told you in a rare moment that she was once a part of one of the families and that she fell in love with a member of the opposite family. When she and him tried to flee her family caught the both of them and killed her lover. It was then that she left her family and renounced her name. She would say nothing more except that he kind of looked like you but longer hair and broader shoulders and that you're a little taller. She then kicked you in your groin and told you harshly to never let your guard down.

You didn't show it at the time but you froze when you heard this. This must not have happened as long ago as she makes it seem because the description of the guy matches your uncle, Sam, who went missing not long after you were born. All that was left was a note that said "Primavera" and nothing else. You then asked if the name Primavera meant anything to Alice. She avoided the question (with an uppercut). You plan to make her tell you everything if... no, when you kick her ass.

A noise from your room

It seems that nostalgia helped you wait because you can hear that someone is in your room. Your nose tells you from the all too familiar scent that Alice is in there beating your sheets flatter than paper. You burst from the bathroom and rush Alice who has a surprised and almost comical look on her face. Luckily you manage to land a few good blows before she realizes that you aren't playing around and taking this spar seriously. She tries to do her signature groin kick on you but you prepared for this and but a cup made of metal on the stop this. After you render her kick useless you grab her leg and flip her over, you then pin her arms on her back and put your knee into her back as well. Victory is yours.

You say "I win!"

You wish you had a camera. The look on her face is priceless. You then state your request and she accepts it. She tells you that she'll tell you every last detail tonight, at dinner, alone... together... (do i really need to reiterate that any more?)

"Like a date?" You ask.

"It's not a date, but at least it's not an interrogation."

"Good point."

"Although there is a condition to this 'date'... no questioning until after we eat, then when we come back i'll tell you everything alright?"

You agree and begin to prepare for the dinner ahead... but you have to ask at least one question.

"Alice?"

"Dress casual, bring a coat to blend in, it's November."

"Alright thanks, see yah!"

You later that night...

A few hours later you're on a rooftop with Alice overlooking the city. Both of you are trying to pick out which human looks tastier. You point out a few easy pickings and Alice picks out a guy who could've been mistaken for a pro bodybuilder. Just your luck. After jumping off the building into a shady the both of you go into hunting mode and begin to stalk your prey from afar. You see that he intends to cut through a nearby park and Alice sees this as well. You both increase the following distance to compensate for the lack of crowds to hide in. Suddenly you see an opportunity to strike, the guy bent down to pick something up off the ground.

You can strike at him now or you can wait and follow him some more.

You be patient

You sit back and wait for another opportunity to strike but it never comes. The guy turns around and pulls a shotgun out from his coat and fires it in your general direction. You manage to duck behind a tree and as the pellets whiz over your head you see that they're incendiary rounds. That makes it obvious that this guy is a vampire hunter. You pop back up to make a run for his gun but he was expecting this and fired another round in your direction. This one connects and it not only sets you on fire but it also causes massive pain before you finally lose all feeling because all the nerves in your body get burned shut by the flames. You become just another notch in the hunter's weapon.

GAME OVER
