Elizabeth Parks
Elizabeth yelled for the cab driver to stop. She had caught a few scents along the at, but most smelled like Grangrel house blood, so she moved on. But she had smelt something new. Like oil and blood, mixed together. A stray. She hopped out of the coach and walked slowly towards the scent. The building was a shabby old place, with no definitive markings, but musk was in the air. And a distinct
other smell. This was a brothel. Elizabeth moved inside. The place was filthy, nothing like her establishment. A Madame sat at a table near the entrance, but she was asleep. Poor work ethics. She swept past the stupid woman and into the brothel itself. Some people looked at her funny, but most didn't pay attention to her at all, too involved in their... activities. The people were all laid out in one room, on separate gross looking beds. All near eachother, to save space. Now don't get me wrong, Elizabeth had seen all manners of people come through her brothel. People looking for groups weren't uncommon. But some privacy was a necessity. This place was a pigsty. And then she saw him. He was filthy, with oily black hair that curled like it was wet. He had gross looking stubble and a nose that was too long. His whore was laying on her side, unconscious. She would probably be dead by now. He saw Elizabeth, and smiled, drawing closer to her, until he was right up in her personal space. Elizabeth blushed, putting on her innocent young girl act, with her big blue eyes.
"What brings a pretty lady like you here?" He breathed into her ear, and she smelt his blood. Oily, just like his hair. Filthy. Unwashed. He was obviously a rookie, otherwise he would have been able to tell she was a vampire from this distance, certainly.
"What do you think?" Elizabeth whimpered, as he ran his dirty hand up her back. She would have to have these clothes washed immediately now.
"How much do you cost?" He asked roughly, and she sensed his bloodlust.
"Let's talk about it in the back." She whispered in his ear. "In my special room." She explained, leading him to a back door she had seen earlier. She opened it up, and immediately flung him out the door, smashing him into the alleyway wall. He gasped as the air was knocked out of him and he broke a few ribs. She slammed the door to the brothel, quickly closing the space between her and the man, smashing her elbow against his throat, causing him to choke.
"You wanted to know what I cost?" She growled in his ear.
"Information." She said, and he shook his head, as it sunk in what she was. She shook her head right back. "What other vampires have you met in your travels!?" She demanded.
"I don't know... Anything!" He choked.
"Wrong answer." She said simply, throwing him against the wall again. She heard bones crack, and he screamed out. She needed to be quick.
"Tell me where the nests are and I'll let you live." She growled.
"I don't know!" He yelled. "I met another vampire, like you, near the London Tower, he looked like a godly fellow, but-" [i] [b] CRaaAcCk [/i] [/b].
Elizabeth cracked his neck, and he crumbled to the ground, blood splashing out of his mouth and onto the dirty ground. She made sure not to get any on her dress. She had a lead. Time to search for this "godly fellow". Not long later, Elizabeth was back in the coach, cruising slowly towards the London Tower.
