The pair walked for the majority of the day, Aries only able to keep pace with the hunter due to being inhuman given his current state. Aries was drained, and while he had grown used to being unfed for all these years his body seemed to be taking a hit after having his first blood meal since turning. It was as though his body was going through withdrawals, but he didn't mention it to Alex and merely kept walking with his head down... Could he die in the next town? The one after that? Faster, faster... The sooner the better... He wanted to feed again, he wanted to, he needed to... Scary...<br/><br/>His mind was an utter mess by the time they reached the next town at sundown, but Alex didn't seem about to rest yet. Instead, the man turned to him and scowled at the little vampire. "I'm going to find you some work, stay here." He said sharply, pointing to a small alley for Aries to wait in while Alex went to inquire about any vampires in the area. Aries couldn't tell for sure, but it seemed to him that Alex should be tired by now... Was he using the hunters' tinctures to keep going like this? Did he really need to go hunting right after entering town? Then again, it always seemed to Aries that the man hadn't slept in any hotel that wasn't fairly nice... Did he just spend the money they got right away?<br/><br/>Not that Aries cared about the money or what it was used for, hunkering down to nap in the alley he tucked his legs up and buried his face. He felt guilty knowing Luca had spent money to get him new clothes that were already in tatters again from the constant nights of hunting, and Alex didn't care enough to let the vampire wash them either. He wondered if he could ask Alex to send Luca some of the money he earned to pay him back for the clothes, for the phone too... Surely he could use that money for himself.<br/><br/>It wasn't long before Alex returned and the sun had fully set, the human leading Aries down the sleazy back streets where the stench of human blood quickly found the vampire. It reeked... Like dozens of humans had been slaughtered here, and Aries couldn't help but feel his heart race at the thought of so much blood... His throat ached and he fiddled with his hood anxiously. Just kill the vampires like he was supposed to, then leave... Don't think about the blood, don't think about anything... Just do the only thing he was good for, that's all, that's all...
