At first I never believed in vampires, then I met him. When I first met him I didn't know that he was a vampire. To me he was just one of my parents old collage friends who I had never meet before. I never knew he would alter my fate entirely.
It was a sunny Saturday morning instead of watching my early morning cartoons like I always do I was preparing for one of my parents friends to visit. Apparently he was a reclusive billionaire who lived on a huge estate and he rarely left it. This fact was why my parents were all excited about his visit. My mom polished and cleaned up the whole house, including our basement… I mean laboratory.
Yes I said laboratory. My parents are inventors and they create gadgets for the government. As a hobby they love to create weapons to hunt the paranormal with, I'm talking about ghosts, werewolves, vampires and the like. Some of the stuff that they know about the paranormal is really interesting but after they tell you about it a million times it gets pretty annoying. Now with my hindsight I wish I had paid a little more attention to it after all.
Our visitor was due in an hour and my mom was fairly excited but not half as excited as my dad. My dad is very easily excited, and when he gets excited you better watch out. He's a big guy (dressed in a bright day glow orange jumpsuit might I add) so he creates quite a mess jumping around in joy. My mom (who is as equally oddly dressed in a blue jumpsuit) happily follows him around fixing the destruction left behind hurricane Jack… err I mean dad.
My sister Jazz wandered down the stairs to see what her psychotic family was doing. She stopped halfway down and rolled her ultramarine eyes and continued down the stairs with her long orange hair waving behind her. She sat down on the couch and opened the monster-sized book on psychology that she had brought with her down the stairs and began to read it.
The hour had almost come and my parents began to gravitate towards the door. A sudden loud ring of the doorbell signalled the arrival of our guest. My dad rushed to the door and swung it wide open and immediately grabbed the person on the other side. Once the poor visitor was released it was revealed that he was a man of about my parents age with pitch-black hair with a few salt and pepper patches and disturbingly red eyes. He suavely entered the room at an almost inhumanly smooth pace.
My parents greeted him joyously and invited him into the living room to sit. The group of adults chatted unendingly for about three hours while I sat there bored out of my mind. I couldn't even talk to jazz because she was so involved with that psychology book. Finally my parents decided unanimously that they should go and get drinks for everybody and left for the kitchen. Jazz readily agreed with then and went to help carry them out
The man who I had learned was called Vlad masters turned towards me and began to speak with me.
"So you must be Daniel then?" he questioned. I nodded shyly. " You know" he began "the last time I visited you were only a tiny baby. You have grown into quite a gentleman since then." I smiled a little and sat up straighter. He grinned boyishly at me and spoke once again " you know how your parents are so intrigued by the paranormal" I nodded. "Well I was wondering if you believed in it to?" I thought for a few moments before finally speaking up
" Well to tell you the truth I really don't." he seemed a little indignant to my response " some of the things my parents believe in are so crazy." Vlad had begun to look incredibly pale and ill, I just assumed that it was the long journey. " I mean of all the things to believe in…" a deep guttural growl cut my sentence off. I looked up at Vlad's face and saw a wild look in his eyes and to my absolute horror long glinting fangs protruding out of his upper lip.
I jumped out of my seat and he did the same. Just as I was about to cry out he lunged at my inhumanly fast and clamped my mouth shut. His fangs inched closer and closer until they bit deep into my neck. In response to this I panicked and began to thrash and squirm, but he held me tight and began to swallow my blood. A screaming pain began to spread out from around the wound making me whimper. I began to feel incredibly weak so I slowly stopped my squirming and went limp. Vlad removed his hand from my mouth and held onto me tighter. Up close I could see that his once red eyes had become a more humanly blue.
I heard a crash from behind me I didn't know who made it nor did I care, everything was beginning to become foggy. I was suddenly freed from the monsters grasp and held by a gentler touch. A quiet sobbing could be heard from the person. I herd somebody talking but it no longer made sense to me. My world was quickly becoming foggier by the minute another sharp pain and a cool liquid sensation spread out to the rest of my body from my neck cooling all the pain I was experiencing. My mind faded to blackness and I knew no more.
All the excitement of seeing my old friend Vlad faded as soon as I saw what he was doing to my boy. I had known Vlad was a vampire since the first day we met. I had forgotten about his red eyes until now. I should have known by their colour that he had needed to feed. His eyes had turned blue which meant he was full I knew my son did not have much time left. I dropped my tray of cookies and milk and ran towards Vlad. I kicked him of off my poor baby boy sending him flying into a wall.
I bent down and cradled my son. His heartbeat was so slow it was almost non-existent. I cried. My son's life was about to end at the young age of fourteen. Vlad came despairingly up behind me. He bowed his head in utter defeat and began to cry with remorse. I looked up at him and then to the shocked faces of my family. Jack was the only other person who had known about Vlad, he cried softly with sorrow. Jazz on the other hand was frightened beyond belief, she kept looking at her dieing brother and Vlad and back again. My gaze returned to Vlad.
He finally met my eyes and I asked "is there any possible way of saving my baby?" he looked away again, but replied quietly
"The only way I could save him is to turn him into…" he couldn't finish but I did it for him
"A vampire…" he nodded slowly. I looked at my husband's desperate look and Pleaded "please Vlad, Please save my baby boy. I would do anything to be able to save him" I broke down into tears again. Vlad wondered closer and bent down next to me and asked softly
"Are you absolutely sure this is what you want? It will be a difficult life for everybody and mostly for him." I raised my tearstained eyes to meet Vlad's almost human ones then I looked over at Jack questionably. He nodded his head and whispered
"If it saves his life" I turned to Vlad and nodded determinedly. He nodded back and leaned over. He hesitantly bit down on my Childs neck once again releasing different type of venom then he had used before. He sat upright again. His haunted and guilty eyes stared down at the floor. I knew he would never forgive himself for doing what he just did he would never be quite the same around us again.
Danny suddenly flinched unconsciously in my arms. I looked down at him; his face was covered in sweat because of a phantom fever that didn't really exist. His hair was losing its entire lovely raven colour quickly shifting into a silvery shade. His eyes fluttered under there lids and he became incredibly pale. The slow heartbeat he had before disappeared entirely all together and his shallow breathing stopped. His eyes slowly fluttered halfway open revealing and unearthly green. He muttered one word
"M-mom?"
