The world has ended, and most of Earth's human population has been wiped out. Soon only vampires will be left, but that's a problem in itself. What will they eat? Who will they hunt? Nori and her new lover, Milo, are going to save the planet: so they can devour it.

"The first day passes, and she's the only thought taking up space in my mind. I have to remind myself to keep the fury burning, to not let it cool into acceptance. It's not about her. It's not about me, either. It's about them. My family. They shouldn't have gone out like that. I've got to do something about it. If I have to choose between my faith or action, I've made my decision which side I'll come down on. My faith wasn't solid ground anyway. Years of war have worn away at it."

My Vampire Nurse

She’s good. Her speed is probably a match to mine, meaning neither of us get any direct hits in right away. We face off for a series of charges and close dodges. She kicks a couple chairs in my direction, trying to herd me to react to my left. She’s good, but I’m better. 


When she rolls to the ground, swiping at my feet, I allow her to make contact. Her claws rip through the skin, exposing bone. It stings, but I pick up one of the knocked over chairs and break it over her head. She picks up two of the broken pieces, crossing them like escrima sticks. The form is pretty good, such as I haven’t seen since roaming around the Philippines before I headed west and joined the Cauldron.
