Red Velvet Cake

She was just about leave when she heard some odd noise. It was as if

something was dripping.

She looked around but was unable to find the source of the noise.

 Drip, drip ,drip….. It was as if a liquid was trickling down her

shoulder. Alice was spooked. She was just going to touch it when she

heard someone walking. She hid under the table and saw a pair of feet

walking into the room. The person also carried a sort of stretcher.

The dripping sound was increasing by the minute. Alice saw that a dark

liquid was trickling from the stretcher. In the dimly lit room. It was

very odd. She couldn’t guess the colour. The person had walked away.

After the person had walked away, Alice tried to get up and once she

saw what it was, she tried to muffle her scream.

It was a dead person. The body looked as if someone had sucked out the

life out it. In other words, the body looked dry. Even a dead person

would have blood but this body had all the blood sucked out of it. The

blood was dripping from the container which contained a large amount

of it. It was leaking a little.

But before Alice could take another step or walk away, someone knocked her out.

Alice opened her eyes and found out that she was trapped in a

container filled with some sort of liquid. Probably water. She was

alive. But not in a good way. Many tubes were attached to her body, as

if sucking blood from her. Alice moved about and saw some 20 other

people filled in such containers. They were alive yet in deep sleep.

Alice knew that it was impossible to resist.

A man walked into the area and marked everyone’s blood. A+, B+, O-, O+ etc.

The man looked at Alice and said, “Oh you’re awake. Good. I know that

you have many questions. So I’ll answer them because I already know

what you’ll be asking.”

“Every blood type is specific for a certain product. Blood is

necessary. I can use a red dye but it doesn’t have the taste as that

of a human’s blood. The blood is collected slowly. Oxidized as well.

Oxygen gives the blood its red color. And as for the red velvet cakes

you purchased, they have O-ve blood in them.

That’s what makes them delicious, isn’t it? Too bad, you can’t taste

the cakes made from your blood, the customers will.” The man presses a

button on Alice’s container. Alice screams and everything goes dark

again.

The next day, a person purchases a red velvet cake from the bakery. On

reaching home, he has a bite and relishes the taste of the cake.

“It’s delicious. I wonder what they put into it.” He thought.

The end.
