Bloodsucker

Drive a stake into this vampire and watch him crumble back to the dust from whence he came.  Look into his eyes as he leaves you and tell him how much you love him.  Show him some mercy!  He doesn't want to live as this monster!  He's on the inside turned inside out to air out the depths so they won't decay.  The structure seems so fragile and yet has an underlying strength that is almost unfathomable, but its depths are filled to overflowing.  Filled by a well.  A wishing well that hardly has any room left for flowing water what with all the coins that have been cast in the name of hope.  Cast from the hands of a vampire who only chose this immortality to have enough time to amass a fortune.  But he realized too late that his fortune was too heavy to carry to its intended destination and so large that most of it had slipped through his fingers.  And as it hit the ground, its ringing was reminding him of the hammer that would be the last and sweetest sound he ever heard.
