Hybrid bloodlines (CH. 4)
Kiyomi hums silently to herself as she slips Tyler's leather jacket over her shoulders. She turns in Grayson's direction, her slender fingers wrapping around a metal handle.
"I'm going exploring. I'll be back eventually, after I find someone to help me figure out the layout to my new prison," she announces while opening the door and stepping into the doorway.
"Okay. Just be careful and call me if you need me!" He calls back as she makes her way down the porch steps. She twirls around and gives him a thumbs up, before heading down the street.
Kiyomi sighs, fishing out her iPod from her jacket inner pocket. She casually glances at the crowded neighborhood while quickly plugging up a pair of earbuds to the device and slipping them into her ears. She continues to make her way toward the town center, pop music overtaking her senses.
"I wonder if Tyler's here? Either way, I have to make the best of this place. Besides, what could go wrong," she silently wonders to herself as she hums along to the music and takes another turn. She hesitantly stops in her tracks, a shadow flickering in the corner of her eye. She raises an eyebrow in confusion and looks to her left. Her pupils lock onto an alleyway. Darkness engulfs the small area, hidden shapes pressed against the gray interior. She tilts her head in curiosity and leans slightly forward.
"That's odd," she mumbles to herself, staring at a pair of red eyes glowing in the pitch blackness.
Suddenly, a pale hand emerges from the shadows and snatches her wrist. She struggles against her attacker, panic pumping into her heart as she's pulled into the alleyway.
Kiyomi tries to scream, but a hand quickly covers her mouth. Pain floods over her entire being like a tidal wave as her back collides with a wall. She looks up, meeting the frame of her opponent.
The strange man is rather tall and an average build. His jet, black hair is covered in blood, his red eyes the color of fire. He's dressed in all black with a skull inked into his neck. He pins her wrists over her head, a murderous smirk pulling at the corner of his lips.
She growls in annoyance, twisting violently...
