Claude meets Not-Allison

Claude Beauchamp:   “Finally.”
Claude lowered his shoulders in relief. “Each sample is organized” It had taken
Claude a solid week to organize all of his new poisons and vials after
returning from his trip to France. “Now, wherefore…urhk..”
Claude doubled over violently. “Curses…I hath forgotten to…” Claude fell to his
knees. He had run out of blood bags part way though his trip and, after getting
so lost in his organization, had forgotten to hunt when he had returned. He
brought a shaky hand to his face. Animal blood wouldn’t cut it; he knew it was
already to late but he could try. He just had to be fast. He couldn’t use his
superhuman abilities being this weak. He would just have to hope that no one
would be up this late at night. Gathering himself up off the floor Claude
opened his door praying no one would accidentally come across his path, lest
they be eaten.
Hyde
without a Jekyll:  *Not-Allison (still working on a name) is finishing up
her rounds of attempting to deliver body parts to the lodgers when she sees
Claude down at the far end of the hall.* ...Hi? Are you a lodger here?
Claude Beauchamp:  Immediately
after walking out of his room Claude catches scent of blood* "Y-yes
I..live here" *Claude managed to answer, he felt his fangs extend
preparing to make a meal of the girl* "I..hath no time for
pleasantries..." *the scent of blood was overwhelming but Claude fights to
stay in control. To any other he would look like an injured staggering child.
He didnt know how much blood he would need and he knew once he started he would
not be able to stop, unsure of how many lodgers he would hurt or kill*
"Please...stay away.."
Hyde
without a Jekyll:  Oh good, another lodger! I was afraid I already asked
everyone! *she begins to walk towards Claude.* I'm sure you remember that this
morning we had that huge accident out front where the ice cream and organ
carriages crashed! Well I managed to save a lot of their goods that were spilled.
*She reaches into her satchel and rummages around for something.* Elaina
already ate all the ice cream but I've got a bunch of organs left over that no
one seems to want. *She pulls out a large burlap bag, fresh blood (the satchel
has preserving properties) is starting to leak through and stain the burlap a
bright read. The girl frowns at the stain.* They just don't make burlap like
they used to. Anyways I was wondering... *She then looks back at Claude for the
first time now feet away.* Hey, are you ok?
Claude Beauchamp:  *As she
steps forwards Claude steps back the smell of blood is overpowering and his
resolve is growing weak, why was the scent so strong?* “Leftover?...” 
*his eyes dart to the bag which was clearly pooling with blood* Fresh thy say?
Wouldst there perhaps be a heart within that satchel of thine? 
*it wouldn’t be enough but maybe just enough to spare this girl her life*
Hyde
without a Jekyll:  Um... lets see... *Shes still worried about the boy and
eyes him with concern as she places the bag on the floor and starts going
through the organs.* 
...I got a lung... a couple of eyes... a spleen... a few limbs...OH! I've got
one heart left! Do you want it? *She pulls a bloody heart out of the bag and
holds it out to Claude.*
Claude Beauchamp:  *his eyes
widened upon seeing his prize and restrained himself from taking the heart and
eating it right then and there* Y-yes thank you. *He had to take this back to
his room to eat, no one could know of his dark secret. He turned quickly to
leave* I-I should really be going now..
Hyde
without a Jekyll:  *Allison gave him the heart.* Do you want anything else?
I've got a bunch of other parts, Mr.....*she thought for a moment.* I don't
believe I caught your name.
