The man walked away from the girl. He needed to know her name. Needed to know the family she belonged to.

He couldn't listen to her crying anymore as tears slipped down his own cheeks. This girl was innocent. In the wrong place and the wrong time.

His other side wanted her took over even in the day light to take her. It demanded her name for reasons different from his own.

'Stop your tears boy.' The voice in his head said.

"She is innocent." The man said to himself.

'She is perfect.' The voice replied.

Stepping outside into the moonless night sky the sounds of the waves lapping at the shore the other side took over. The pain of the transformation caused the man to scream out in agony. His fingers grew sharp nails, his teeth became sharper, his hair longer and became white as snow. His cheeks became more pronounced along with his jaw line. His skin became translucent and with a smile on his ruby red lips the other side turned and walked back into his hosts house.

Like a ghost, the other side walked straight to the girl. At first she didn't see him as the tears blurred her vision. Then she lifted her head. Taking her hands she wiped the tears away from her eyes. That's when she saw it. That's when she screamed.

Like a flash the other side was covering her mouth with a hand. The cold seeping off him causing the girl to shiver and her skin form little bumps all over it.

"I want your name." The other side side in her ear. His voice raspy as his tongue slid over the ends of his sharp teeth.

The girl shook her head no as another shiver shook her body.

"Have it you way then." The other side said as he uncovered her mouth. The girl screamed again as the being before her moved in front of her. A creepy smile forming on his face as he leaned down capturing her lips with his.

He wouldn't have kissed her if he had known her name. For if he knew who she was he would have let her go.
