Vlad awoke from his slumber and an unnatural shiver of excitement wracked his body. Soon the super moon would fill the sky and he would leave his sanctuary to feed. The darkness of night was his friend and comforter, the daylight the stuff of nightmares.
As the moons beams cast the tortured shadows of tree branches across the fields he felt new life pulsing through him.
Down in the village the adults and children slept unaware of the darkness moving towards them. And they would remain asleep and safe for Vlad was a vampire slowworm and was unlikely to be even halfway to their homes when the sun came up.
