Wait for it I said mentally, keeping myself out of the way until she was in range...NOW! My right hand shot out, grapping the hand with the wood in it and twisting hard and fast, hoping to hear the snap of bone. I whispered "Tsk tsk tsk. Quite foolish, child. You think you could stap me with that?" I gestured with my left hand towards the ocean-rotted and dulled piece of driftwood. I continued "Besides, I think you would have at least had the sense to wait until I was asleep. Attacking a concious vampire is plain tom-foolery. I didn't ask for this, I simply wanted a nice meal. You're the one who seems to want to belabor the point. I'm perfectly content to let the evening go on in peace. Attack me again and I might find that I have room for seconds. Do I make myself clear?"
