1/10 Night

Cool darkness pressed down as she walked through the quad. Incandescent light from the stadium lit the treetops, making the darkness below that much more dense and impenetrable. Was there movement beneath that tree? Quickening her pace, she silently cursed her counselor for encouraging her to take an astronomy class. Was that a footstep behind her? She whirled and saw nothing. Hugging her books, she started to run. Was that a stick snapping? Stifling a sob, she broke from the cover of trees and into the light of her dorm, not seeing the glowing red eyes watching from the darkness.

The watcher stayed in the shadows and let the young woman run. It had marked the door she'd gone into, and that was enough for now. Patience was the key. The creature now devoted its mind to an understanding of this world it had arrived on; the tinge of fear and adrenaline just as tangible to its senses as tang of petrochemicals in the air. The turning planet would soon swing around into the light of the sun, and it wanted to be away from that; it began to look for a lower entrance into one of the brick structures.

3/10 Night

Bursting through the side door of the dormitory, Rachel raced up the steps, nearly colliding with her roommate, Jen, who was on her way down with a full laundry basket.

“Hey, Rach. You okay?”

“Yeah, fine. Just got spooked walking back. I felt like someone was following me.”

Both girls gazed out the landing window into the darkness.

“I’m just being silly,” Rachel giggled. “I hate walking alone this late at night.”

“Call Security next time.” Jen started down the steps to the basement laundry room. “I’ll be up in a minute. Just gotta throw these clothes in the wash.”

4/10 Night

Moving easily in the semi-darkness, the watcher strode between the towering boilers of the campus heating plant. Idle in the summers heat, it was the perfect refuge. A sudden movement caught the creatures eye as a rat darted across it's path. A slashing claw caught it, gleaming fangs ripping it apart. The coppery taste of blood sweet on the creatures tongue as it absorbed the nutrients it craved. Curling up under a staircase, it thought of the female it had seen. Her ripe body the perfect vessel for it's seed, to carry it's offspring. Growling contentedly, the creature slept.

5/10 Night

She was pale in the moonlight, her skin glowing like a lantern as she lay beside the fountain. The flimsy silk robe lay on the ground, away from her; she was obviously unconcerned about her nudity. But then, at this time of night, who would be prowling the grounds?

I watched as she touched, caressed herself. My eyes were riveted. She was inspiring as her back arched in climax, as her gasps and impassioned moans filled the air, mingling with the scent of her sex.

I wanted her.

But I could not dare to take my brother's wife.

Just about 100, I think

6/10 Night

Caught in the vision before him, his guard and pants down, he had no inkling of her approach. She had not intended to feed tonight, was not driven by hunger, but such an offering could not be denied.

There was no need for stealth, the darkness hid them equally. As she fed, her mind reverted to its previous problem: the presence of Another.

She had sensed his arrival, sensed his quest and sensed his need. He wanted a mate. He wanted her to be his mate, or at least his incubator.

She had much to do before their ultimate meeting.

I think it's 100.
Hopefully I managed to link SLyc's with the previous train... maybe.

7/10 Night

Retracting her claws and reverting to human form, Jen licked the blood from her lips and fingers, savoring the last of it, sweet as honey, on her tongue. She picked up the discarded laundry basket and walked back toward the dorm.

The Other was near. His presence vibrated in her blood. His understanding of this place was limited, which was a threat to them both. The campus was her refuge, her territory, which she did not wish to share.

She only took those who wouldn’t be missed—the ones who didn’t belong. It was almost a public service, she thought.

Hopefully I managed to link SLyc's with the previous train... maybe.

Oops. It was late when I saw this. My apologies for missing that part.

8/10 Night

The watcher stirred. The emotional vibrations reverberating in its mind. Prey was being taken. It's mind probed and encountered...another.

"Who are you?"

"I am a new arrival. Who are you?"

"I am called Jen. You are in my hunting ground."

"I am Rath. It is the Time of Mating. We must meet."

"Assume a suitable form, Rath. Come to me. I will guide you."

A tall, lanky man emerged from the heating plant and sprinted across the dark campus. Her scent filled his nostrils and he sensed her eagerness. The mating urge was upon them. Then they would feed.
