What Happens
A vampire has a splinter of wood embedded in their chest, and it’s slowly working its way into his heart. “Invasive nonhuman surgery is prohibited due to possible infection,” explains the doctor. The vampire lays in a hospital bed, prematurely aged due to his condition. The doctor explains what’s going to happen to his “patient.” The vampire says this isn’t how he pictured dying, but there’s not much he can do… is there?
Commentary
“Nothing is immortal.”
This is really good. It’s reasonable, understandable, and more dramatic than horrific. I was expecting the girl vampire to turn on him or betray him, but no, nothing like that. Just a dramatic death.
It’s not exactly horrific, but it’s a vampire story, so it goes here, but I definitely liked this one a lot.
