Vampire AU for one_shot

[howbraveyouare]

Karen was usually such a careful vampire. She had lived for over a hundred years without so much as a close call, always avoiding even the best vampire hunters, but there was something about Frank Castle. He was sharper than the others. Better. Driven by something that she didn’t completely understand. She’d heard about him through the undead grapevine. He had quite the reputation for snuffing out vampire lives.

She hadn’t expected to run into him in that alleyway. As she fed on a man who’d intended to slip a pill into her beer, she heard him approaching, cornering her. Karen let her prey slip from her arms, weakly tumbling to the ground half-conscious. Her head turned to look at him, blood smeared around her lips. She was ready to fight if necessary, but instead she defended her actions.

“He’s scum. A date rapist. Would you really save him?”

And save him from what? Karen never killed her prey. She simply took from them and left them frightened, something she felt they all deserved. No one would believe them, anyway.

Frank stood over the vampire and drew the stake from within his coat. She wasn't the one he was looking for, but when he spotted the two in an alley, he had to step in. Frank didn't live by any hunter's code, though. There was only one vampire that actually interested him; he'd just keep going on like this until he found his target.

"Yeah, you go around just doin' the world favors, I'm sure." She made it sound like she was doing the right thing by sucking on that guy's neck. Maybe the man was of bad character, but that didn't make her a good person, either. She wasn't even a person.

"I'm lookin' for a vampire. Goes by the name of Blacksmith. He's in charge of a big group. You know him?"
