I continue to walk along, unperturbed. For all that the vamps are mamono, they're still mosquitoes. THAT is something many forget... but not me.
The first one comes swooping towards me, before rearing back so hard she falls on her ass on the ground. Staring at me a moment in disbelief, she leans forward slightly and sniffs me, her hand slapping over her nose as she quickly backs away and takes to the air.
"Run," she screams, "he's tainted! He'll poison us! RUN!!!"
Concerned by the sheer terror in their sister's voice, the other Vamps quickly turn away. Taking their cue from the Vamps the Beezs follow, confused but unwilling to take the chance.
I sigh in satisfaction. You see, I've been eating a lot of Italian food recently, and with it a healthy amount of garlic. As anyone who eats garlic on a regular basis can tell you, it works its way through your system and out through your skin, and acts as a natural insect repellent.
And that's one to grow on. ;-p
