A figure appeared in the forest, he sniffed the air and disappeared again into the forest, he searched earnestly following the trail of dead bodies until he found him, Damian.
****
Damian stood at a hill top looking down at another delicious meal, he looked at the joyful faces of the villagers as they walked around the busy street.
He was still damn hungry so without thinking twice he limped down from the hill appeared in front of a man, held his head sideways and pierced his fangs into his neck. In a span of seconds he had drain every bit of blood from his body.
"Ahhh", screams filled the place as everyone started running around in a bid to save their lives something he was already used to hearing.
He left the man dead body to fall limply and attacked another woman doing the same thing he did to the man to her, he repeated the same action on anyone he laid his, wiping almost half of the villagers, then he started going from door to door and killing people untill he saw the particular brown wooden door, which made his dull eyes glint with an unexplainable feeling.

A man and a woman stood at the edge of a wall in their house shivering I'm fear, they had never thought this day would come, though they have been hearing different cases of night creatures attacking different villages but this was the first time experiencing it.
"What are we going to do, they are getting closer to our house. My baby" the woman said with tears falling out from her eyes like rain, she held the baby in her hand closer to herself.
"No nothing must happen to Elisa, we must protect her with everything we have", he said picking up the baby.
"What are you going to do", she aslked but he ignored her, with the baby in his arms, he walked towards the direction of their bedroom, holding the baby with one he pushed the door open with his other hand.
He entered the room with his wife following him from behind, he picked up a wooden crib placing the baby on it he walked deeper into the room and stopped right in front of an empty space, looking back at his wife who looked at him in confusion with tears glittering in her eyes.
He raised his foot and hit the edge of a part of the wooden floor that look worn out and it opened he look at the baby in his hand placed a kiss on her cheeks.
"Daddy will always love you elisa"he said before placing the crib containing the baby in the empty space that had just been opened standing up he turned to his wife who was already crying her eyes out, hr hugged her and she hugged him back, they stayed in that position for about two minutes before the smashing sound of their front door interrupted them, they looked at each other and ran towards the living room ready to accept whatever came their way.
*****
Damian stood outside the brown door listening if he would hear any sound but after waiting for two minutes without hearing anything, he smashed the door open and walked inside.
He stood at the door looking at the male and female who had just arrived at the living room looking like they had seen a ghost.
"Where is she" he asked no one in particular.
The husband and wife face turned pale white from fright but didn't respond.
Damian looked at both of them knowing they was no use asking them, he walked further into the room towards the direction they had come out of.
With the husband and wife trailing from behind though giving him a maximum amount of distance.
On reaching the empty bedroom he looked back at the couple at the door.
"Don't make me repeat myself" he said once again, he had never been this lenient with anyone in his entire life but this two seem to be his in-laws so he took a deep breath, cooling himself down.
"Th-ey is n-o one her-re", the husband said in a shaky voice after summoning courage.
"Ohh, really", he said with a smirk, he turned away from them looking around with his bloody red eyes, sniffing the air he frowned looking down at a particular part of the wooden floor at the center of the room making the couple heart jump to their throat.
He walked to the direction of his eyes bending down he placed his already elongated nails at a small space dividing the two Woods, with little or no force he pulled out the wood.
The sudden loud noise made the baby start crying, she cried even loud when she felt a srt of cold arms picking her up.
Damian look at the crying baby with an inexplicit emotion in his eyes, 'he had finally found her, his Lost Piece',.
