SD-1 Samael's Satanic Speculations

[Samael]

Apparently we were supposed to post a workbook or something? 09/21/10 #152. Vampires & Unicorns Don't leave your distractions up to me. Things will get dark. I'm leaning over the stone railing of the balcony, stretched out under afternoon sunlight. The balcony overlooks the city below, with its clay tile rooftops and climbing ivy. This place is teeming with life, and I allow myself to bask in its positive energy. Looking at the roads below, I can see - Wait. "Is that guy riding a unicorn?" I ask. The soldier standing next to me, dressed in forest green camo, puts a hand above his eyes and squints. "Oh, yeah. That's the pizza guy." "The pizza guy." I repeat flatly. "Of course." The pizza guy has convinced his unicorn to go up a flight of steps. As he turns the corner, I see his face. I bury my head in my hands. I appear outside next to him. "Really, Misha?" I say, "You know what'll happen if they catch you?" He says something. I shake my head. "The stage is set." I make a grand gesture with a sweep of my arm. "Your distraction is ready." How many pizzas would you need to feed a platoon of soldiers, anyway? Vampires. The girl looks maybe thirteen years old. She's quiet and sullen, and thirty vampires are following her through the darkness. She didn't mean to turn them. Well, not all of them. As their sire, she's responsible for them, and needs to keep them under control. I really need to kill a few, she thinks. She keeps three. "Rosie," she says, "It doesn't have to be this way." She's staring at the animated corpse of her friend. She turned Rosie into a vampire to save her life. Rosie laughs, trapped as she is within the circle. Still grinning, she'll speak the words that will damn her friend forever. Flashback. This is the girl vampire's past. She's still human, up in the building that I just left, protected by a platoon of pizza-ordering soldiers in forest green. The soldiers are all dead, attacked by vampires. The girl is injured, bleeding. There is one soldier left, a recurring character. He turns around to reassure her, tell her they'll be all right. He lowers his weapon. "Look," I say gleefully. "You can see the precise moment that she turns." She's a vampire now. She kills the soldier. Attempted a MILD with the intention of inducing Nomad's RPG task. No such luck. Apparently my Supernatural dreams are back, though, thanks to the show starting up again this week. I have no explanation for the vampires, though. Lots of timeskips in this dream. Also, teleportation is easy, when you're not lucid.
