Forever.
I might as well slit my own throat now.
"If it makes you feel any better, I still want to kill you - just give me the go ahead". She says, her eyes twinkling.
I drag myself to my feet and leave the cozy cave quietly.
I need water - badly.
Not to mention food.
She comes up behind me.
"You still want to embark on your hopeless quest of finding survivors?" Her tone is dripping with sarcasm.
"Yes, but right now, we need to find some water."
She moves to stand beside me.
"There's always ocean water".
"It's poison… but since you have so much in common with it, why don't you drink it?" I retort.
"I'm not as pathetic as you - I don't need water to survive. Neither do I need food. What I need is fresh blood - by that, I mean yours".
I glance at her. She's smiling, her red eyes gleaming mischievously.
"Not a chance. Since we have forever, you can plot as long as you like".
"You'll die before me. When I said forever, I meant your tiny lifespan".
