You're absolutely terrified of the man in front of you. You were backed against a wall, barely able to stand due to the blood loss, covered in your own blood. You were just bitten by a vampaneze. You absolutely would have died, but Crepsley saved you, but you ran off. You couldn't understand anything going on. Your teeth hurt. Everything hurt. You were trying to fight off the obvious fact that you just became a vampire. You didn't want to deal with another one. But Crepsley was faster than you and caught up quickly.

"You're just a kid..."

He says when he finally gets a good look at you, realization painting his face, his voice surprisingly gentle. He held his hands out, showing you that he had no weapons.

"I'm not gonna hurt you. I'm here to help you. I'm Larten Crepsley. What's your name, kid?"
