I walked into the cool night of Cairo not sure of what was to happen next would God in his infinite power strike me dead for what i had become? I awaited his mighty blow but it never came and so i walked and walked some more not sure of my destination.I finally came upon small cafe on the main street so i decided to stop in and see if anyone could tell i was a monster. I walked in slowly expecting a lynch mob with torches and pitchforks but there was none the cafe patrons where all seated and doing as they where doing before i entered.I sat down at a small corner table and rested my head upon it soon a beautiful voice made my head rise from the table with quickness.She was a beautiful Egyptian woman maybe about 19
"something to drink?" she replied in bad english. I responded quickly "the hardest drink you have dear" she noded and headed for the bar.I waited for what seemed like seconds and she was back she sat a small glass of a brown liquid on the table in front of me i could smell the scent Whiskey coming from the glass. I tossed her a few waded bills and took a swig of the drink quickly i spat it out it tasted bland like drinking water. She looked at me curiously and replied "is there problem sir?"
I nodded and replied "NO!" very sharply she jumped and ran to the bar. I rose from my chair knowing that no more would i be able to drink and eat the foods of humans for i was a monster so i began to walk out of the cafe when a large english man stopped me "you got a problem bud?" I replied quickly "get out of my way ?" the man shoved me yet i did not move and inch i moved him aside with ease and walked onto the street. He followed and came behind me with a quick blow to my ribs i felt a knife enter my body and pierce my lung. I quickly turned and felling a rage i had never felt charged at the man grabed him and snapped his neck like a twig i tossed his body to the ground and ran realizeing what i had just done and that the authories would be ariving soon. I ran to the shipyard as fast as i could i had to get out of egypt. Knowing that a boat ride from Egypt to Paris would take at least a month i had to stow on board the cargo section. i quickly crawled into the cargo hold of a ship loading passengers. As i listened i found out the ship was headed to Nice, France close enough i thought and layed down for my long boat ride..............
