Vamp

It’sduskasIroll down the road on my motorcycle. The sun is setting, leaving the world in a warm, colorful haze. The leaves are changing; the air getting chillier this time of day. Autumn is slowly creeping up.

I’m on my way back from my favorite place in my home state of New Hampshire. I have a secret spot right on the coast. Most people don’t know New Castle Island is where I call home, but my brothers in the motorcycle club know. My family still has their summer home there, and I use the place to relax when things go south.

This weekend was a hard one after we helped a young girl who was being abused by her teacher. It’s a dark fucking world out there, but our club is the light in this dark world; we protect the innocent by any means necessary. I proudly raise that black flag, sail in on my ship, and take down those who dare to harm the innocent.

Shaking my head, I focus on the road in front of me. I’m almost back to our clubhouse at this point. I know the road like the back of my hand, loving the way my motorcycle takes the sharp curves of the country back roads. I get back on the small two-lane highway and head up toward the mountain.

Just as I turn the sharp corner, a flash of white comes busting out of the woods. I slow down, thinking it’s just a deer. Instead, a young woman stands on the side of the road, hands flapping in the air.

I ride over and turn the bike off. “Are you okay?”

Her blonde hair is flying all over the place, her white dress stained with mud.

“They’re coming! We need to go!”

There’s a rustle in the woods and I can hear shouts. “This way! I see her!”

Without a second thought, I grab her by the waist, flinging her onto my bike in front of me. She buries her head into my chest, holding on for dear life as we tear down the road. Shots ring out as they try to take us down.

We’re only a few miles down the road from the clubhouse, so I push my bike as fast as it can go. I can see the gates and scream as we get closer.

“Open the fuck up! Now!”

The prospects rush to open them as I fly through. I can hear the gates slam close as we come to a sliding stop. The woman tumbles to the ground as my brothers come rushing over. I kneel and notice some dark red on the dress.

“Doc! We got blood!”

Our road captain, Doc, rushes over as he pushes his ponytail off his shoulder. Leaning down, he whispers to the woman.

“Hey there. I’m Doc. Can you tell me your name?”

She nods her head. “Lenna. My name is Lenna.” She smiles before looking down at her dress. “Oops. That’s a lot of blood.”

I give a nervous chuckle. “Yeah it is, sweetheart. Can you tell us what happened?”

Lenna looks around, then back at me. “Why are there so many people here? Oh goodness, there are two of you now.”

Doc looks at me. “Pick her up and get her to a bed. Now.”

As I pick Lenna up in my arms, she leans her head on my chest. “Thank you for saving me. I think this is goodbye?”

Her eyes roll to the back of her head and I rush into our backroom.

“Doc! She’s out!”

He runs over with the IV pole, a bag of blood already hanging off of it. I place her on the bed as Doc gets to work. Our President, Cyclopes, comes into the room and pats me on the back.

“Ya did good, Vamp. Doc has her now.”

I shrug. “They were shooting at us. Fuck, you should have seen her face, Pres.”

“But you got here unharmed, and now that woman is in good hands. Where did she come from?”

“I was heading back on 101. She popped outta the woods coming up the mountain.”
