Chapter 279: Alucard, Lord of Vampires (1/2)

Moby slowly opened his eyes feeling unusually refreshed. It had already been a few days since he and the others went to the amusement park and school was finally starting back up the next day.

It was 7:00 am and he had a lot planned, so, after he finished his regular morning routine, he immediately left the room and went to go meet a certain person.

Of course, he was invited in, and immediately headed to the crimson door of the mansion that he was now all too familiar with.

When he walked in the room, he witnessed the sight he always saw, but this time, Abby was simply lying down in bed with a blank expression, staring at the ceiling above.

”Hey! Abby! Are you awake!?”

”Oh-o-o! Hello Moby! I didn't know you would be here so early today…”

She slowly sat back up and faced him with a small smile.

Over the past few days, he had come to visit her every day, and although she did not recover, he was certain she was getting at least slightly better every time he came. But, today seemed different.

”Are you good? Is something bothering you? I brought you some of your favourite candy if you want…”

Abby simply looked down with a smile on her face and responded, unlike her usual self.

”No… I'm really fine, I'm just really tired this early in the morning… But! I would love to have that candy!”

As if she flipped a switch, her expression completely changed and caught Moby off guard.

”Okay! Here you go!”

He pulled out a box of chocolates from his inventory and laid it on her lap before walking away since she knew she wanted him to always keep his distance. They still play video games on the complete opposite sides of the couch after all.

With mellow star-like eyes, she opened the box up and began slowly eating the chocolates instead of going crazy on them like Moby expected.

Moby had first decided to ease what he was about to do by playing some games with her, but he now decided that it was a perfect time instead to do what he wanted to do.

”Hey… Abby… Do you like stories?”

He asked, making her look at him and slowly nod, her mouth still chewing.

”Good… This is a story from someone you actually knew and loved… A story of his past and what he wanted to do in the future, along with a message for the one he loved.”

Suddenly, Abby stopped eating as she looked at Moby with intent, watching him pull out a piece of paper that she felt had an odd aura exuding from it, an aura drawing her in.

She continued eating the chocolate more slowly, as she listened to Moby speak with her ears wide open.

”Greetings friends, if you are reading this then I have probably already passed… ”

”I was planning on sharing this all with you sooner or later but it seems like I never got the chance to and we were ripped apart far too soon by the whims of fate.”

”For the last 2 weeks I knew this girl, it had been the best weeks of my life, it felt short but long at the same time. We didn't even get to kiss… Guess I wasn't man enough to take the first step and I will probably regret it to the grave. But oh well… Maybe in the after-life…”

”I was born with a heart disease…”

*****************************************

”And, Abby's heart was also unnaturally pure and innocent with also little to no distortion which might be the reason I fell for her since she was better than any girl I've seen before.”

”Anyways, that's all I wanted you to know… I know this corrupted light in the heart sucking invisible dust into the sky seems really hard to believe so take of it what you will, I just wanted you to know it and I hope it helps you! Maybe you can uncover something that even I didn't!”

”Sincerely, the dead man that hopefully accomplished something with his death and brought happiness to others.”

”smiley face,”

Moby took a deep breath reading what he just read, it was his second time doing so but it nearly hit him just as hard as the first time as he barely suppressed his tears from leaking out.

He had not mentioned himself, Ray, or Jayden at all and blanked out all the names mentioned for a very specific reason.

He slowly lifted his head and spoke.

”So… Do you know who wrote this letter and who was the girl that writer fell in love with?”

However, when he looked up he witnessed a sight he never thought he would see.

It was Abby's face, half of it completely dry and the other half of it crying profusely, the tears dropping on the sheets of her bed.

”Moby… Help… Why am I crying? This all sounds so familiar yet so foreign to me… It's breaking me apart… Please help… I don't know what's happening… I'm scared…”

Abby curled up into a ball, rocking back and forth like a scared little child.
