Amina Queen of Persia. Historical Fantasy

We have to get away, Zhenya shouted and ran to the tent to collect his things.

Lera grabbed the knife and stabbed the vampire in the chest, he screamed, but then pulled the knife out of his chest and headed towards the car. We all got into the car and Max began to move away and then the vampire grabbed Lera’s hand and tried to bite her, Elsa remembered that she had holy water in her bag. After quickly rummaging, she opened the lid and poured water on him, he began to roar like an animal and charred ulcers began to appear in the chest area. Max stepped on the gas and we rushed along the road; luckily for us, he stopped chasing us.

– What’s happening? – Max asked.

I don’t know, Lera answered, but I feel we’re in trouble.

I warned you, let’s leave, but you didn’t want to listen to me, said Elsa.

I stabbed him in the chest with a knife, but he didn’t care, Lera was surprised.

That’s right, this is not a person, but a vampire, said Elsa.

– Vampire, are you high on smoke, where do they come from here? – Zhenya asked.

I don’t know yet, but we need to find out, Elsa answered.

They drove through the forest and got out onto the highway, it was dark, there weren’t many cars, so they had the road at their fingertips. Max was driving at high speed and after some time a man ran out of the forest and threw himself under the wheels.

Max braked sharply and began to get out of the car.

Maybe Max shouldn’t go out if it’s him, Zhenya said.

Don’t you understand, there’s a man under the wheels of my car who needs help, Max said and approached the man.

He felt the pulse in his neck and exhaled lightly:

We need to take him to the hospital, said Max.

Nothing will happen to him, he’ll pull through, we need to get out, and quickly, Lera shouted.

You can leave, I won’t leave him here, Zhenya come out to me and help put him in the back seat of the car, Max asked.

They took him by the arms and legs and brought him to the car and carefully placed him on the seat.

The man was unconscious, only blood was coming from his mouth. Zhenya sat down next to him to watch and hold him.

– How far is it to the hospital? – Zhenya asked.

No, ten kilometers, Max answered.

The delirious man began to say some words vampires are everywhere, they are nearby, they need to be stopped, vampires, vampires…

Max, he’s talking about vampires, Zhenya said.

Today, everyone is obsessed with these vampires, this is nonsense, there are no vampires and there cannot be, we’ve seen enough movies, said Max.

What about that guy on the shore, don’t you believe it either? asked Elsa.

It’s just that the guy turned out to be healthy and strong, Max answered.

– What about the knife in the chest? – Lera asked.

It’s just a coincidence, I don’t believe in these fairy tales, Max answered.

Max, there’s blood on the back of your head, Elsa said.

Now I’ll give you a handkerchief to wipe away the blood, Lera said and opened her bag and took out the handkerchief.

Thank you, dear, Max said and began to drive up to the hospital.

I’ll call the nurse now, Lera said and ran to the reception desk.

Girl, we need a doctor, we found a man on the road, he is unconscious but has a pulse, Lera said.

The woman quickly called a doctor and a nurse on the phone, who a minute later were heading outside with a gurney. Elsa and Zhenya carefully pulled him out of the car, put him on a gurney and the nurse took him away.

Let’s all go, otherwise the cops will be called to clarify the circumstances, said Max.

We’ve had a lot of rest, Lera said.

Come on, who could have known that this would happen, said Max.

It’s okay, we’ll go home, tomorrow we’ll wake up as if nothing had happened and forget everything like a dream, said Max.

It seems to me that he won’t leave us alone so easily, he needs something from us, what exactly is still a mystery, said Elsa.

Firstly, we don’t know where he came from, and secondly, where should we look for him, said Max.

We don’t need to look for him, he’ll find us himself, Elsa answered.

No guys, I don’t play such games with you anymore, I’ll come home now, take a shower and get everything out of my head, Zhenya said.

– What did you pour on him? – Max asked.

– Holy water, I read somewhere about vampires, that they can be holy “Frighten away with water for a while, Elsa answered.

– Where did you get holy water in your bag? – Lera was surprised.

My grandmother is a very religious person, so she put a jar of water in my bag with the words:

– If you feel bad on the road, drink water or wash yourself with it and then everything will go away.

– So, why should we stock up on water too? – Max asked smiling.

It’s advisable to carry it with you, you saw that he doesn’t take anything, only holy water scalded him,” said Elsa.

Max took everyone home and Elsa, arriving at the apartment, plopped down on the sofa, all in thought. Then, turning on the computer, I began to search for legends about vampires, their origin and life.
