《Wholly Undead》Chapter 140: I'm a Skeleton... I do have blood!?
Advertisement
Jack floated into the palace and quickly made his way to the ward. As he entered into the ward, he found Doctor Hollowell there at her desk, doing what appeared to him as notes.
Jack floated over, and placed Princess Eris on a bed, as he turned to speak to Doctor Hollowell, "Doctor Hollowell if I could bother you for a moment."
Doctor Hollowell put down her pen, as she stood up to walk over to Jack's side without a word to look at the would-be patient.
She tilted her head slightly, "A Vampire?"
"Yes. This one has come to Our Kingdom to search for me to feed her... I think she is sick." Jack explained.
"I have very, and I mean very limited knowledge of Vampires. I'm a Bone Doctors, not a Blood Doctor..." Hollowell said slightly displeased.
"I'm sorry, but when I see you, I didn't know who else to ask about these things."
"Aren't you suppose to be some kind of god now? Don't you know?" Doctor Hollowell looked up into Jack's flaming eyes.
"I'm a god, not omniscient," Jack said indifferently, as he felt slightly annoyed.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have spoken out of place," The good doctor noticed Jack's annoyance.
She spoke again, "I will try my best," as she walked over to the side of Eris, and looked closely at her face, and skin.
"Princess, this is my royal doctor. Stay perfectly still for her to look you over."
In Eris' haze, she heard the voice of her god and obeyed without hesitation.
Doctor Hollowell continued to do an examination on her and listen to her breathing, which seemed foreign to her, but she still had some knowledge from what she had read in the Medical Section of the Grand Library.
She took one of her bony fingers to swipe a bit of the clear fluid from the side of Eris' mouth.
She rubbed the fluid between her fingers and pulled them apart to see the stickiness of the fluid.
"She's coughing up plasma... She does indeed need to be fed. She's lost a lot of blood." Doctor Hollowell looked to Eris' arm, and continued, "It appears she has been partaking in self-harm.

"This is an easy cure... Give her some blood." Doctor Hollowell backed up, as she said rather blandly.
"So that's all that is wrong with her? She's just bloodless?"
"I'm not Blood Doctor, but that would be the most obvious answer with the state she is showing. We have black blood. It isn't very good blood for Vampires, but it can be enough to bring her out of her current state. If she came with others of their kind, I would suggest for them to feed her some of theirs"
"She... She won't drink blood from them. That's why she is like this. She only wants me to feed her..."
"Well, feed her then. I need to go to the crypt for another cadaver. I think my last experiment proved useful, so I can differently get certain organs to work again in zombie undead... I might even be able to add blood and skin to a Skeleton if they wanted."
Jack didn't really listen to the end of what Doctor Hollowell was saying, as he was thinking how he was going to feed this bat shit crazy princess...
"I don't have blood, what the hell am I suppose to do?!" Jack spoke up while looking at Eris, as Eris' breathing became rapid and her eyes rolled up in her head.
Doctor Hollowell was just about to leave the ward, as she heard Jack's question. She turned to look at the God-King's back, as she spoke, "Who said Skeletons don't have blood? Where do you think blood is made in living and undead creatures?"
[I have blood???]
Jack thought for a moment, he didn't really listen in biology in high school, as he was more of an earth science and computer science nerd... At that time in biology class, he was more focused on courting a certain female than being concerned with any of the lectures, but he thought logically... The only thing he had was bones... Therefore his bones produced blood?
So, Jack spoke, while he turned to look at the ward's exit, "I have blood in my bones?"
"Of course. Give her some bone marrow... Just don't give her too much, I'm sure it will be alright." Doctor Hollowell spoke, as she then exited the room.

[She totally disregards me as the God-King... That's kind of refreshing.] Jack thought, as he turned back to the Vampire Princess.
He looked down to his bony wrist, [How do I get the blood from my wrist? Do I need to break my bones?
Jack thought for a moment and decided to just try and slice his bone open, like flesh. With a thought in his mind, his left hand held a bright solid-looking gold dagger made of the light. The shine of the light seared a part of Eris' left arm. Jack seeing this backed up many steps away from her.
[Damn are vampires sensitive to the Light...] Jack thought, as he slashed at his two bones above his wrist, the Ulna and Radius respectively. His only result was a thin gray line that soon turned back to his normal ivory white bone color.
[What the fuck?] Jack tried again, and produced no results. Jack looked up at the Vampire Princess on the table who seemed to be getting worse by the minute.
[I can't produce blood and this bitch is going to die on me, pissing off her Kingdom to come and screw me over... Damn it... Why is this my problem!] Jack's fury rose, and the golden dagger turned into a morning star mace in his left hand. He held out his arm again, with the intention to crack his bone open. He would fix it later.
The mace came down, and a boom of exaggerated proportions sounded. The shock of this impact produced a gust of air that knocked down many other beds in the ward and sent papers and numerous medical instruments flying from Jack's epicenter. He could only be thankful that he backed up a good way from the Vampire Princess.
[...This is ridiculous... You know what... Magic... Magic solves everything.] Jack thought, as he disregarding the mess he made in the ward.
He approached the nearly unconscious Vampire Princess. He was impressed that she was still holding on this long while he basically played around. He felt slightly foolish he couldn't do anything about his bones... Just how hard were his bones?
Standing to the side of Eris, Jack lifted his right hand and made a fist. [Seems like magic shit happens with my intentions now instead of casting spells... Can I just think of what I want and make it happen?]
Jack decided to try, as he squeezed his hand hard like he had done over Zitergall making the cherubs, but this time his intention was the force out his bone marrow from the pores of his pones.
It took a few seconds, but a thick golden visceral fluid began to seep from his clenched hand, [Holy crap it worked!] Jack didn't know what to make of the fact that he was about to think about what he wanted and attempt it... And it would actually happen! No spells, no nothing! Why???
After tossing the thought, for now, he looked at this fluid and was shocked by something else... [This... This looks a lot like Glowstone! Liquid Glowstone?!?] Jack never heard of a liquid form of Glowstone, but if it was metal then it could be liquid or even air due to the state of matter...
[Should I really feed this woman with something that looks like Glowstone? I mean this looks like liquid light!]
Holding his hand, the fluid was about to drip, and Jack decided it was time to do or die. He took his left hand and caressed the beautiful face of this female Vampire, as he asked, "If you can still hear me, are you sure you want to feed from me?"
In her labored breathing, Jack could her a moaned yes.
"Alright... Please don't blame me if this kills you." Jack's left hand that was caressing her face, pulled down on her chin, which exposed the pink fleshy insides of Eris' mouth. Jack was dazed for a moment but quickly shook his head. He put his right hand over her mouth, and the collective glowing golden blood poured from his hand into her waiting fanged maw.

The Choice is Not Yours
Author's Note: (As of November 20, 2021) I rewrote all the chapters perhaps more than a year ago, but haven't announced that I did so. Because that kind of announcement would include something along the lines of, "I'm working on the story so expect new chapters!" But the truth is, I lack motivation to do anything. And I would hate myself if I broke a promise. I'm extremely sorry if you have been patiently waiting for uploads. These days, I've been studying, not well, but studying somewhat. I will definitely bring more to show, with regular uploads. If not this story then there's another story I've been writing that's really exciting to me. It's not exactly similar to this story since it has a male lead and he is a baneful asshole with even less morals. I hope you'll like it when it comes to existence. And I'll leave my announcement off with the aforementioned promise. Meet Amber, a tomboyish, unstable, and cheeky lass who likes to keep to herself. According to her, she'll live the rest of her life on auto-pilot mode, awhile holding onto the few things that make her remotely happy. However, she forgot that people never really leave you alone, be it humans or even the Gods. And exactly that happens, ending her monotonous life on such the Gods' whim. But at what cost to her? Will she be able to hold onto the things she holds dear? Or will she fail miserably and lose herself in the process? That's what the Gods want to know. Disclaimer: I do not own the cover photo.Warning: If you are easily triggered, I am not writing this novel for you.
