Happy to see again so soon, Victor darling. I have high hopes for you, so don't disappoint me.
....no pressure.
Your word prompt is:
That's A New Smell

Death, decay, the smell of flesh rotting beneath the damp soil. The overpowering odor was enough to make your skin crawl and the hair on the back of your neck stand up.
All of it was something all together new, exhilarating and yet frightening at the same time. Heightened senses made the world come alive, the very air in front of his nose seemed to shimmer and dance. But it also seemed as if the air itself were trying to run from the putrid stench of it.
Victor's upper lips quivered slightly as he pushed the decrepit lid off of the large wooden box that at one point had served as an elaborately decorated coffin. The rotting wood fell to the ground and splintered as the smell of carnal rot hit him full in the face, His eyes burned as a scowl formed on his pearly features. Pulling back the arm of the corpse he saw nothing and a growl rumbled in his chest. Oh, how they would pay for this little prank.
[sorry for not posting this sooner. My laptop crashed, I do hope it's not disappointing.]

Not at all! That was delightfully macabre. Since my very title delcares that I'm mad for power, I'll give you the second half of your prompt.
Since we updated the rules a bit belatedly, I'll just apologize and say that this bit's in first person.
----------
"Oh dude!"
The group of teenagers attempting to conduct a Satanic ritual in the bushes nearby give up on their pentagram (turned out you really couldn't draw a straight line when you were that drunk) and stumbled towards Victor with evident admiration.
"Dude, you just... dude!"
"I can't believe it worked!"
"We didn't even finish the penta- the thingy."

Yes ma'am. It was supposed to go first person first, and then third person, but we'll have you do it backwards.

[[Hope that's not too much trouble]]
My eyes turned up as the small voice echoed in the darkness. The young teen-aged boy looked at me a bit stupidly as his friends scampered up behind him to get a peek at the me, who they obviously thought to be some spectacle or grand proportion.
A stood towering over the boy slightly and gave him a malicious little grin. As I stepped towards them mustering the most menacing presence I could and grabbing the boy by the scruff of his shirt I brought my face close to him "Don't you know drinking is bad for you?" I growled.
My lips curled into a wicked smile revealing the large incisors that had frightened many before this group of miscreants. I let go of the boy and took a step back my eyes roaming over the little group. Mortals were ever so interesting.
