      Prologue

      Vincent opened his eyes as he groaned softly hearing Sora an angelic Earthari being having a Human female bald headed form with a white robe covering her from the chest down and having glowing form with wings while flittering in the air above him singing again in her musical like voice. He sighed to lean against the window on Fishlala the Fishla's home world in a rocky castle island set aside for natives of air breathing despite the Fishla were water breathers and mostly lived underwater in domes. He sighed as he recalled himself as Vincent but as a Human whose species was oddly named Earthari by the Fishla. He recalled his life as Vincent before picked up by the Fishla who picked up survivors of the species Tennan's destruction onto his home planet.

      He sighed as he heard Sora singing he understanding her speech Ancient One, tell me a story about an Earther named Adair Vincent Attala who the Earthers seem to revere religiously in Earthari's terms.

      He sighed a Human trait recalling that Earther was Fishla speak for vampire was short for their meaning Children of the Earth.

      Vincent spoke in response telling the story from his memory fully in mind.

      Chapter One

      "Vincent spies on twins before they become vampires like him a few nights. Vincent feels like he wants to lead someone like a leader hence his spying. Twins live in a run down abandoned house bordering a forest only going out during the day which they sleep in the house during the night. Vincent after awhile of watching goes in the house one night while Milan is out and converts Madrid into a vampire then waits for Milan to arrive home which he converts into a vampire. He gives twins their names and tells them that he calls himself Vincent while indicating it’s not his real name along with asserting his leader authority. He takes them into the forest to his house the manor a mansion while learning from twins that no one goes to live there or goes near thinking the surrounding forest and the house are haunted. He shows them rooms to stay in and gives them clothes to wear along with teaching them how to hunt animals to feed off of when Humans are in short supply. Vincent the next night spots the twins outside in the garden whispering to each other standing next to a rose bush plant that makes him angry and he yells at them to leave the plant alone which they look at him with shock on their faces which he angrily shoos them away from it. He stares at the plant while thinking the name Vincent as an image of a dog comes to his mind and sigh thinking of needing to lead which he adds to himself that he has it with the twins. Vincent while hunting comes upon a bear which he attacks and bear puts up a big fight which he has trouble taking down. Bear managed to knock him on his back on the ground and before bear could bite him on the face with its jaws a male German Shepherd Dog comes barreling out of the forest attacking bear. Vincent sees that dog is helping him gets up and with bear distracted managed to get his hands onto it in a choke hold which he feeds off till bear is unconscious once done walks away followed by the dog which resists his attempts to shoo away. Dog to his annoyance follows him to the house where he meets twins there who look amused which he feeling disgust goes inside leaving dog out. Dog to his annoyance appears to be sleeping on the steps and using one of the trees as his bathroom which he discovers by walking on it one night also following him whenever he is out hunting animals for blood. Vincent gets fed up with dog grabs him to attempt to feed off of it discovers some feeling holding him back which he doesn’t feed and let goes of dog to sit on the steps that licks his face. He gives the dog a name calling him Champagne and takes him inside the house to a room with a ratty couch and a bed which his instincts tell him to mentally speak to the dog as a way of communicating with him. Vincent orders dog to stay in the room then goes around the house looking for items such as a dog collar with tags leading to the house, leash and dog toys along with dog food which he finds all over the house. He finds the basement and finds a very large amount of burlap full bags stacked in the room which he peers in and realizes are dog food and acting on a hunch goes to a room with covered up furniture and heavy curtain double doors leading to outside to the wall which he sees a large painting picture of a male with a black background frowning with his hair color pulled back wearing a suit while sitting in a chair with a hand on a large dog next to him on its haunches wearing a collar like the one he found.

      He sees on the painting’s frame words Adair Attala and Champagne, December twenty five.

      He got interrupted by Sora speaking December twenty five? What's that?

      He spoke in a groaning tone It's a date in Earthari time terms for the planet Terra's rotation around the sun making it a year in Earthari's terms once it completes a whole rotation of that.

      He eyed Sora who spoke Continue on with the story now.

      Vincent obeyed.

      Chapter Two

      "Vincent gets a memory of himself sitting in an identical chair wearing similar clothing with a dog sitting next to him while staring at a man who is appearing to wear ragged clothing with paint on them while busy painting on an easel while seeing a woman looking old judging by her hair color and facial features wearing a high collared and long sleeved dress while sitting in a chair watching with a frown on her face. Vincent in the present day groans as a headache arrives to his head collapse to the floor curling in a ball which he gets a scene in his mind showing him as Adair wearing the suit standing next to a bed with the woman lying in it which he is closing her open eyes and backs away with horror on his face. He in the memory stops backing to go towards her picking up her wrist and with a knife in his other hand cuts it dropping the knife to bring it to his lips sucking on the blood till there is no more and the blood stops flowing which he licks the wound closed. Adair once done runs outside through the double doors of the room in the darkness of a rain storm falling to the ground in a kneel aiming his face with eyes closed towards the sky while groaning of pain loudly with his hands fisted. He roars out an inhuman like cry then opens his eyes baring his teeth that two are now fanged and then gets up walking back into the house which he closes the double doors pulling back the curtains and stares at the woman lying dead in the bed which he pulls a blanket over her and walks away leaving the room closing the door behind him.

      Vincent in the present day sits up gasping as the headache leaves him and he looks around the room recognizing it as the old woman’s bedroom despite furniture covered up with sheets. Vincent goes out to hunt which he comes upon a deer and feeds off it nearly killing it which he finished sees a fawn come out of the bushes wobbling towards the deer which he says something like its not his problem walks away. He goes to the house and to his bedroom to sleep then wakes up feeling a hand touch his forehead which he sees belongs to a young woman (Devon) who he is rude to for trespassing in his house. Young woman refuses to back down treats him with kindness which he finds something dead in him wakening up which he treats her with kindness. Vincent learns her name is Devon who he feels he loves her and tells her that which she doesn’t say much about it but seems fine with his declaration. He has Devon to take care of Champagne and his needs including going out in the daylight for the dog which lasts a few days and nights till he goes out on a hunt- "

      Vincent got interrupted by Sora again Can't you change the language uses and try telling another term?

      He spoke in response figuring out what Sora wanted.

      "Vincent sniffed the air walking through the forest with night vision eyes sight which showed the scene as clear as daylight in the color green. He frowned as he heard Champagne barking loudly from his left and recognized the dog’s bark in an angry annoyed tone. He ran into the forest slipping silently through the bushes till he peered through the clearing to see Devon with her black hair pulled back wearing a black dress and black booted shoes on her feet standing with Champagne facing a bear. He groaned as the bear stood on two legs walking towards Devon changing its form to a male wearing a grass skirt and grass anklets with knives in hand swinging towards her. He stiffened recognizing the man as a Shaman and he darted through the bushes making noises. He saw the Shaman twist around to face him which he charged full body attack knocking the man and himself to the ground. He was quick to sit up on top of the Shaman and grimaced from the pain feeling the man’s knife swipe him on the face making a cut from his cheek to his forehead missing his eye by inches. He allowed anger to take control grabbed the Shaman’s head and gave it a jerk which he sensed the man give up his life swinging arms flopped towards the ground. He got up and walked towards Devon who let go of Champagne’s leash and walked towards him. He flinch stepping back as her right hand slapped him on his face on the left side as he howled an angry sound. He saw Devon take off running into the forest and he followed her using his fast speed to tackle her from behind. He thrust Devon onto her back while grabbing her wrists with his hands.

      Devon to his shock spat in his face and spoke I’ll never be yours for you’re a murderer.

      He felt anger take control along with the desire to feed arrived within him. He angrily bared his teeth and brought his mouth to her neck biting with his fangs and he sucked the blood within. He drank till he felt Devon stop squirming becoming still and licked the wound closed then he released his hold on her wrists. He gave Devon a glare and brought his hands to her head and gave it a jerk while hearing a snapping sound as he sensed her body gave up its life. He moved back on his seat to stare at Devon’s lifeless body as a feeling of sadness arrived within him. He placed a hand on his forehead as he felt the sadness feeling overtake him and he howled painful mourning cries while rocking his form back and forth. He laid his form down on the ground curling into a ball as his cries became softer. He felt hands touch his shoulders and looked to see kneeling next to him were the twins with identical faces and brown hair, the male called Madrid and the female called Milan who pulled him up to a standing position. He felt them place his arms on their shoulders escorting him still wailing through the forest to the Ashmere Manor house that stood looming over them. He stopped wailing as the twins escorted him into the house into Champagne’s room where he was forced into a lying position on the guest bed which he curled his form into a ball hands covering his face and felt himself falling asleep which he surrendered to the sleepiness going unconscious. Vincent woke up with a gasp abruptly sitting up on the bed. He felt his face with a hand on the left side to feel a thin grove line going from his cheek to his forehead. He looked around the room with disorientation as he shook his head recognizing Champagne sitting on the couch eyeing him with his eyes. He got up from the bed and looked at the curtains that were glowing whiteness and groaned softly. He walked to the open doorway in the corner of the room diagonally opposite from the bed and left the room closing the door behind him. He exhaled air seeing the door to the bathroom on his left which he went inside to the shower stall while taking off his jeweled barrette out of his hair and yanked off his clothes and sneakers which he left lying on the floor. He got in the shower turning on the water to toleration levels and stood underneath the water spray allowing the water to fall over his muscular body. He shut his eyes and brought his head up face into the water while rubbing his face with his hands.

      Devon he spoke.

      He lowered his head opening his eyes and with a hand shut the water off getting out of the shower. He shook himself and squeezed his hair twisting it in a rope as water poured out off of him. Exhaling air he felt himself dry grabbed his clothes putting them on and picked up his barrette which he pulled his hair back putting it in. Groaning he left the bathroom to the doorway down the hall next to the stairs which he opened showing a large kitchen with gleaming appliances. Shaking his head of disgust he went to the cupboard and pulled out a large burlap sack along with a metal bowl which he poured food in it. He put away the sack in the cupboard and went out of the kitchen to Champagne’s room where he entered placing the bowl down on the floor. He stared at Champagne who got off from the couch towards the bowl watching him noisily eat the food. He folded his arms with a frown on his face as he stared at Champagne who stopped eating and watched the dog go to the couch to sprawl on it. Exhaling a breath he picked up the empty bowl and left the room closing the door behind him to the kitchen where he placed the bowl in the dishwasher. The events with the Shaman and Devon’s death flashed in his mind’s eye.

      He spoke out loud Devon, why did you reject me?

      He left the kitchen to the stairs going up them entering the second floor which he walked pass doorways till he reached one open and walked in the doorway closing the door. He stared at his room which was on the large size. He saw a wall with curtains in front of him that were glowing a bit and jutting from a dark end of the room was a large bed with a padded headboard. He saw dressers with turned off lamps flanking the bed as he groaned some sound and went to the bed lying on his back. He stared at the smooth white ceiling with a frown and closed his eyes.Vincent dreamed of a forest clearing which he stood staring at. He saw a woman barely twenties wearing faded jeans with holes in them and a T-shirt walk in view. He stared at the woman’s face which he saw brown eyes and long brown hair left down on her back. He frowned as the woman abruptly fell in a kneel with a shocked expression on her face dropping a raggedy backpack from her hand which he growled softly as he saw the Shaman arrive in the clearing from her left.

      He stiffened as he saw Devon walk from behind the Shaman speaking She’ll have to do.

      He frowned at the words as the Shaman spoke I agree.

      He stared at the Shaman who went to the woman placing his hands on her head speaking in foreign language then removed his hands.

      The woman he saw got up to a standing position eyes staring at the Shaman who spoke You won’t remember this, go on your way but your mission I gave you, you’ll remember it.

      Vincent folded his arms as the woman walked into the bushes walking out of sight as the Shaman turned to Devon and spoke again It’s done.

      He stiffened further as they both turned their heads and looked directly at him in the eyes. The scene went black. Vincent woke up with a gasp jerking himself up in a sitting position. He sat up with night vision in his eyes as he stared at the curtains that were no longer glowing. Groaning he got up and went to the curtains pulling part of it back to stare out the window which showed night time outside. Sighing he let the curtain fall back and left his bedroom leaving the door open. Frowning he met Madrid and Milan on the way who followed him walking down the stairs to Champagne’s room. He could hear the dog barking and groaned softly as he and the twins entered Champagne’s room. Champagne he saw joyfully went up to him with tail wagging hard. He bent to give Champagne’s head a rub and then went to the door grabbing the leash off a table which he clipped on the dog’s collar. He went out the door to the front door of the house which he went out in the night while hearing the twins following him as Champagne pulled him to a tree. He stood as Champagne did his business then allowed the dog to pull him further into the forest. Vincent groaned as Champagne abruptly turned around yanking the leash out of his hand with his snout mouth and took off running. He followed Champagne letting the dog run in the forest by himself. He saw Champagne disappear in the bushes and heard the dog barking which he slowed walking through the bushes and froze seeing the female from his dream sitting in front of a tree with an annoyed look on her face. Vincent stared at her in the eyes whose eyes eerie met his and he felt a sharp pain in his chest as her face grimaced while putting her hand on her chest. He jerked falling to the ground kneeling as the pain got sharp and he groaned loudly as he saw the female lie down head on a raggedy backpack eyes closing. He gasped from the pain putting hands on his chest while feeling the twins’ hands on his shoulders as he felt a thudding vibration in his chest on the left side. He groaned with shock running through out him as he realized what the vibration was.

      He heard Madrid speak Vincent, I’m hearing your heart beating which I think started the moment you laid eyes on her.

      He lowered his hands gasping at Madrid’s words as he heard Milan speak What are we going to do about her?

      Vincent gasped out Get her in the house, have Champagne lure her in with the excuse of to taking care of him.

      He heard Madrid speak Are you sure of this, Vincent?

      He spoke I’m sure of this.

      He paused then added Champagne, come here.

      He saw Champagne walk in his line of sight to sit on his haunches eyes staring at him. Vincent closed his eyes and mentally spoke Champagne, stay with her and guard her from harm. Wake her up when its daylight and bring her to the house. Allow her to go inside with you and help with your care.

      He opened his eyes as he stared at Champagne who got up and went to the woman to sit on his stomach with head on her chest leash trailing from his collar. He groaned and got up from the ground shaking the twins’ hands off his shoulders.

      He heard Madrid speak Vincent?

      Vincent spoke as an idea came to his mind Champagne will lure her to the Manor but we have to do our part in getting her in the house. Come along with me, there’s things we have to do.

      He sighed as he looked at the woman with a frown then walked away walking towards the house while hearing the twins following him. He entered the house to see the hallway which he turned right walking down it to the door which he opened showing room with furniture scattered around with doorways in it. He spied the desk in front of a heavy curtained window and went to it yanking open a drawer and pulled out a pad along with thumbtacks in a container and a pen. He exhaled a breath as he grabbed the pen with his left hand and closed his eyes then opened his eyes as he began writing words.

      Once done he tore out the paper and handed it to Madrid while speaking Post this to the front door.

      He saw Madrid grab a thumbtack from the container and walk out of the room carrying the paper. He again closed his eyes then opened them as he wrote words on the pad and tore out the paper which he put besides the pad. He again wrote words then once done tore out the paper and grabbed two thumbtacks from the container and walked out of the room with Milan following him. He met Madrid in the hallway as he went to the door to Champagne’s room which he posted a note on it then went inside the dog’s room to the corner door which he tacked the second note on it then stepped back rubbing a hand on his head.

      He spoke out loud This will have to do. Now Champagne will do his part and she’ll have no excuse to not go inside.

      Chapter Three

      Vincent grimaced from the memory to continue speaking.

      "Vincent went to the office to sit in the room as daylight arrives with ears trained to the front door listening. He hears it open and close which he goes to the door to stick his ear on and hears another door open and close sound then leaves to the hallway with ear on the door to Champagne’s room which he listens hearing noises along with another open and close door sound. He waits as he again hears the sound and a click sound of lamps turning off. He goes in the bedroom quietly to stare at Hannah then gently places a hand on her cheek while feeling urges to keep touching her who he resists then leaves the room to his bedroom which he sleeps getting nightmares of Devon’s death and her rejection. At night he gets up followed by twins walking through the dog’s room which he eyed Hannah with longing then mentally tells Champagne to wake her up and take her to the twins in the forest, he orders twins to bring her to him in a certain area where he’ll be waiting to give her his blood. Vincent waits near a river with impatience and sees twins guiding her to him which he seeing that she’s thirsty cuts his wrist with a fingernail and guides his blood in her mouth which she drinks but doesn’t turn into a vampire to his curiosity but rubs a finger on her cheek. Woman is pulled away by Champagne on his mental order which he goes to hunt with the twins and after feeding off the antlered deer goes into the house to stare at her lying asleep. He touches her face but she doesn’t stir and he goes to his bedroom to sleep. He wakes up at night time and goes to dog’s room to the woman which he tears off a strip of cloth off the couch wrapping it over the woman’s eyes and lifts her up carrying her into the forest which he senses her awake. Woman tells him her name is Hannah which he speaks the name along with sucking a small amount of her blood while discovering that she still doesn’t convert into a vampire which he dismisses. Hannah to his pleasure touches his face and his hair and he senses that she likes him. Hannah in his arms falls asleep which he carries back into the house laying her on the bed and leaves her to his bedroom and again Vincent has nightmares of the deaths of the Shaman and Devon that plague him. He wakes up at nighttime to silence from Champagne’s room which he darts in followed by twins to see that Hannah and dog are gone and runs outside to the forest panicking. He uses his mental telepathy to call the dog to him who comes and leads him to Hannah walking to meet them. He is quite angry kisses her and carries her to the house then gestures for her to go inside with the dog. Hannah goes inside which he lets out a howling like roar and then runs into the forest letting his instincts take control which he catches a male deer breaking its bones all over before sucking it dry. Then Vincent goes to the house once inside forces Hannah to lie on the bed which he sleeps next to her. He gets the same nightmares and wakes up howling some roaring cry which wakes Hannah up and insists to her with his gestures without talking that she is to stay in the room. He goes out hunting for a bear which he finds wandering near the house and spies Hannah on the steps as the bear makes some roaring sound. He mentally orders Champagne to take Hannah inside just in time for the bear he sees spots her going inside charges at her which he follows. Hannah to his relief gets inside with the dog as the bear whacks its head on the door and lumbers off which he catches drinking its blood till the bear goes unconscious then goes into the house furious which he gesture orders twins to take dog out of the room then forces himself onto Hannah mating with her then after that sleeps besides her.
