Lurking in the Shadows (closed w/aint-nobodys-bxtch)
aint-nobodys-bxtch Rick sat down casually on a stool inside the busy bar, arms resting on the wooden surface in front of him as he let his blue eyes wander around the crowded establishment. There was a lot he was looking for that night, but monster hunters shouldn't have been as high on his list as it was as he ordered himself a drink. He was the local sheriff, and the one who was expected to uphold and enforce the law, so it wasn't often that anyone suspected him of being the creature that he truly was. In light of recent events, however, he had a reason to be nervous about a monster hunter snooping around. There was another vampire on the loose in his town, but whoever had been feeding on his townspeople was doing a very sloppy job of cleaning up after his meals. There had been a steady stream of corpses over the past several weeks, but the hunter that had come hadn't made any progress as of yet. The officer was getting tired of waiting however, for this hunter to sort things out for him. He'd been investigating a bit on his own recently, and now his hope was that he could get this man - Daryl, if he remembered the name correctly - to work with him to get this killer out of the town. He didn't want to be out of a job, after all, because some vampire with a large taste for human blood had killed all of the townsfolk, after all.
