a modern day van helsing



in the past couple of weeks i've had some crazy dreams, but i've been too busy to record them. i'm kind of sad, because i'm sure a few of them were quite fascinating--i just can't remember them now.

last night's, i do remember, however. i moved to this cute little town somewhere on the east coast. it was fall and it was beautiful. everyone in the neighborhood was charming and nice. however, somehow we got infiltrated by something weird. one-by-one people started changing into vampires, zombies, werewolves, etc.
it got to the point that i was the only real human left, and the town had a meeting to decide what to do about it. everyone liked me a lot and wanted me to stay in the town, so they ended up ruling that i should choose something to be changed into, that way i'd fit in a little better (and so everyone wouldn't keep accidentally almost killing me).

i decided to become a vampire, but i was really nervous. i chose the nicest, most gentle vampire in the town to bite me, because i knew she would make it easier. and it actually wasn't so bad.

later one day while i was shopping, i turned my back to go into a banana republic and a silver bullet went right past my ear. i turned around to see who'd shot it, and this johnny depp look-alike stood across the street from me with a smoking gun.

to make a long story short, this van helsing wannabe terrorized the town for a while, trying to kill all of us, until we captured him. just like they did for me, a town meeting was held to decide what to do with him.


in the end, it was agreed that he should be handed over to me, and i got to turn him into a vampire.
