"Daddy, Daddy, why are you crying Daddy, Mommy is alright. She said she'll come back to us. Daddy please don't cry, I'm hear Daddy." Harry, the boy that lived and died all during his school life woke out of a daze which hadn't happen to him since the times before his changing. Harry was a vampire; he was changed during his 5th year of school. Since then he hasn't been the same, not just physical and meta-physical attributes but his soul has been completely changed. Harry remember that day as if was crystal clear,
The dog just trotted into the forest without a word, Harry continued to follow until they reached a small opening where the dog slowly turned into a tall figure that showed a worn out man yet with kind and gentle eyes. "Long time no see." Sirius said as he embraced his god son in a death hug. Harry could only gasp for air and hug back with a smile on his face. "Me to, me to." Harry had a speck of water fall from his eye, he looked up to Sirius who seemed interested in the depths of the forest. "How you holding up kid?" Sirius returned his attention to Harry. "I'm good Sirius, what were you looking at?" "Nothing Harry Nothing." Sirius responded again looking into the forest. Sirius's face gave away that he was lying, Harry did feel betrayed that his god-father would lie but he figure that it might be good for him that he didn't know the truth. "Hey Harry, I'll get back to you tomorrow.. something tells me that were not entirely alone out here -" Sirius couldn't even finish his sentence as Harry saw his godfather flew back into the tree and being knocked out. "Sirius!" Harry looked around as he reached for his pockets were usually he kept his wand. "Dam" Harry murmured to himself as he remembered leaving his wand on the desk. Harry turned back around to see Sirius but instead he noticed that he was blocked by a tall figure with bleach skin. The figures eyes darted straight to Harry's neck and never wavered, Harry stood in fear looking at the eye of the person. The figure grabbed Harry's arm before Harry could do anything, pulling him closer the figure opened it mouth showing to very long fangs. Gulping Harry knew right then and there his life wasn't going to be the same. Darkness in trenched itself around Harry and his mysterious vampire, the forest remained deathly silent like it always had been.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Harry felt Sirius hands around him as they still laid in the forest. Sirius had tears creeping slowly down his face, he knew what had just happen to Harry. He wasn't there for Harry that was the part that was eating Sirius from the inside, he betrayed his best friend. "Sirius." Harry whispered since his strength was failing him quickly. "Don't worry. I'll still be me, Nothing can change that. But now I'm just going to have to get use to the fact that blood is my food and nothing can change that. But I'm still going to be the same person I've always been." Harry felt his own tears run from his face like he knew what was going to come next. The pain started to overwhelm Harry as he held in his screams so he wouldn't bring attention from the people around the forest. His mouth felt like it was fire, his body torn in so many places and in so many ways. Blood slowly dripped from his mouth and onto Sirius's arms as he held Harry tightly in place. Gripping the ground Harry's nailed dug up old dirt that gritted under his nails, the pain shot through out Harry's body. It was dying yet still alive something most couldn't even comprehend soon Harry would be a legionnaire of the dark. Sirius felt a sudden drop of body warm in Harry as he noticed that Harry's skin turned a deathly pale. Which only took seconds seemed like years, Harry was a new person inside, no longer living, yet still alive, he was a newborn vampire. "Harry." Sirius said still holding onto Harry with his eyes red and puffy from crying. Harry stared up at the darken forest in a new light, everything was so much brighter, his body felt weightless, his mouth still felt on fire but he seemed to be alright. "Are you alright?" Sirius whispered. "I'm in a little pain right now. but I'm good." Harry hissed through his fangs which he noticed that were almost an inch long.
He fights everyday to keep his humanistic side with him and not let the vampire side take control. Harry as been able to do this job decently but lately he has been haven't trouble since he's been going in and out of dazes. These dazes had been happening every since his 6th year of Hogwarts, the year which he deemed, 'His year of thoughts'. Many things changed during that year and it wasn't for the good. Instead it seemed that only trouble followed Harry, first it was losing Catrin and then it was losing Collin Creevey, Harry's biggest fan. Harry now feared that he was walking trouble, everywhere he went he was encounter with troubles and it only seemed to get worse. His friends stood by him the entire way but Harry just wanted them to leave, but Hermione and Ron would never allow it. Harry was grateful for this but also feared that one day it would get them killed.
Harry knocked himself out of his thoughts and began to think about the strange little girl's voice that kept calling him Daddy. Strange was all he could think of, even more strange was the fact that the girl said that mommy was coming back. Harry didn't want to think about the subject to long he had better things to do, like spend the entire day with Hermione the love of his life, well dead life. Harry had been invited by Hermione to go visit the states, just the two of them. The Grangers trusted Harry enough that nothing inappropriate would ever happen to there little daughter who was 16 years of age. Of course Harry wasn't going to betray them and wouldn't do anything that Hermione didn't want to. Harry looked over to the bed where Hermione was sound asleep, wearing nothing but a shirt and silky blue panties, which Harry seemed to stare longer at. Daylight was just rising, it filter through the curtains hiding the window behind it that opened the entire city of Las Vegas. Both Hermione and Harry agreed that it would be and interesting place to see and decided that it would a good vacation. It was away from everything and everyone that they knew, Voldermort (which Hermione finally got around to saying the name) wouldn't even come close to Harry since after there encounter at the end of the 5th year. Also Dracula and his clan of vampires didn't hold any ground in the States; it was an entire different system of government here where the vampires rarely even showed themselves.
The yawning of Hermione signal to Harry that she was waking, Harry's face grew a smile, like it had every other day that he had been with Hermione. She twisted and turned to get out of the bed grabbing the sheets with her as she unconsciously walked over to the bathroom. Harry waited patiently he was always ready to go, his jet black hair slicked back, his eyes bright emerald green, and his skin deathly pale. He wore black slacks with a white tee that showed off his muscular body. Harry could hear the shower starting up, he could also hear the soap starting to lather Hermione soft body. Not wanting to get further then that Harry quickly got up and walked over to the dresser where his sliver flask was, quickly he took a swig of the contents before setting it back down. He looked at the flask and smiled remembering this is how Hermione first found out what he was.
Harry change his appearance before entering the room so that if there was anyone wake they wouldn't notice. Harry was just about to walk up to his dorm when a recognizable voice spoke behind him.
"The life vigor of all living creatures is Blood. Human blood is far the strongest of all vigor. Let the vigor of any creature pour in this flask to make it as strong as Human." The voice said.
Harry turned around to see Hermione there staring at him as if she was going to stake him.
"Why didn't you say anything? Why didn't you tell me?" Hermione's voice rose with each word being produced.
"I'd.Um." Harry couldn't produce words he didn't think she would figure it out that fast.
"Harry. I told you that you could tell me anything. I would have understood.. But now I feel betrayed. you're the only one I gave that picture to. not even Ron got that picture." Hermione was started to get misty eyed.
Harry remember seeing the picture on his birthday it was Hermione in a little black bikini relaxing in the sand as the sun slowly inched it's way down beneath the ocean.
"I was trying to give you a hint there Harry. But then you pull something like this on me. Then Ron asked me out.." Hermione was breaking down right in front of Harry.
"I'm sorry Herm. It's just I didn't want you to leave me. I was afraid. even more afraid than being a vampire. I know it was a hint. I would have asked you out if I didn't become what I am now. I cared too much to let you go." Harry rushed over to Hermione and quickly grabbed her into his arms holding her as if she was a baby. Hermione shutter as she felt the coldness of Harry's body come into contact with hers.
"Do you really mean it Harry; you would have asked me out?" Hermione looked straight into the emerald green eyes noticing the flames prance.
"I never would have said it if I didn't really mean it." Harry stared back into the eyes of Hermione.
"Harry." Hermione pulled herself away from Harry crying Harry didn't like to see her cry.
"Mione'. I'm sorry." Harry whispered pulling Hermione back into him feeling her shiver as she came close.
"No Harry. I'm the one who pried into your secrets. I know that you would have told me one day. I just wanted to help you. but now. I can't do that." Hermione cried softly in Harry's chest.
"Hermione you can help me by staying with me. being my friend. and maybe my girlfriend one day." Harry said and watched Hermione turn her head up to Harry's so that they locked eyes once again.
"Harry. I would love to be your girlfriend. but it would weird." Hermione said but deep down in her heart she knew that she wanted to be with him.
"I know. That's why I'm only asking you to be my friend and not shun me away." Harry replied knowing deep down in his unbeatable heart he wanted to be with her.
Hermione stay in Harry's arms gazing into his graceful emerald green eyes watching the fire dance in his pupils as if she was watching a small battle within his eyes. Finally Hermione broke the gaze with a tiny tear falling. Harry noticed the little tear and slowly moved his cold fingers to wipe the tear off her face. Hermione quiver feeling his cold fingers touching her face, but that didn't bother her. She knew that Harry was still Harry inside he just has some physical changes.
Harry felt soft hand move softly around waist, he quickly turned around to see a towel covered Hermione. Her long silky hair draped over her shoulders, her softly brown eyes bored straight into Harry's heart. Harry leaned down since she was about an inch shorter then him to kiss her straight on the lips. Hermione felt like she was going to melt in his arms right there.
"Morning lovely." Harry broke there kiss and just held her at the waist.
"Morning." Hermione smiled.
"Sleep well?" asked Harry.
"Very well" Hermione smiled again before kissing Harry.
"Let me get dressed then we can hit the town for breakfast, alright?"
"Sure Herm" said Harry as he watched Hermione sway her hips while going back into the bathroom. It didn't take Hermione that long to finish up, she came out looking hot as always, Harry thought to himself. She wore a black mini-skirt and a white blouse, which Harry didn't protest against. Soon after Hermione came out they left there hotel room and walked down to the elevators which took them down to the lobby of the MGM grand hotel.
?
Hermione and Harry got a small booth near the corner of the restaurant which they were in. Harry didn't touch a single morsel but Hermione seemed to have an appetite especially for greens. Harry looked around, waiting for Hermione to finish up her food, this is when he notice a particular family walk through the door, the Dursley's. Harry couldn't remember if they ever told him that they were coming to the states. Vernon looked the same no neck walking ball with sticks under him, Petunia walked in with her arms laced through Vernon's she didn't seem to change one bit which Harry was glad for. Then Dudley walked in right behind him, Harry had to blink twice, Dudley became thinner, not just a few pounds off but a good two-hundred. Hermione looked at Harry then to where Harry had been looking at and saw that his only family left walked through the door.
"Want to go Harry?" Hermione asked quietly still picking at the greens off her plate.
"No, but can you tell me something, is that Dudley I'm seeing?" Harry pointed to the tall and lanky boy which muscle that showed through his shirt. He had slicked back blond hair which seemed to bring out his eyes. Hermione nearly choked up her food, last time she had seen Dudley who was ogling over her, he was a fat cow to but it in lament terms.
"Harry, I'm I seeing what I think I'm seeing." Hermione asked questionably.
"I think that is." Harry softly responded.
"He looks great." Said Hermione. "Should we say hi?"
"Maybe on our way out" Harry replied.
"Sounds good, but let me finish, I might get more, I'm really hungry." Hermione said as she waited for the waiter to come over to get another order.
"You like eating for two." Harry said as Hermione acted like she hadn't heard the comment.
The waiter quickly came over and took Hermione's order, then turned back to the kitchen. Hermione unconsciously stared at Dudley who now was sitting at a table that was placed in the center of the restaurant. Harry looked at Hermione and waved his hand in front of her face. Harry promised her at the time they finally announce that they were officially a couple that he wouldn't read her thoughts and he wasn't going to break it now. The waiter came back with Hermione's order and placed the plate in front of her which seem to break her concentration. "Oh thank you." Hermione looked to the waiter and smiled. The waiter nodded before turning around and walking away. Harry looked at Hermione as if she had done something wrong.
"Something wrong?" Hermione turned her head up to Harry.
"Oh no, nothing." Said Hermione.
"Alright," Harry said just before the waiter came to give them there check. It showed that Hermione certainly had a large appetite for salads. Hermione quickly finished her food then looked at the check and flushed with embarrassment.
"Sorry, I'll pay for it." Hermione said quickly. "No, don't worry about it, remember you invited me to go on this trip with you least I can do is pay for the food." Harry smiled before taking out his wallet and getting out fifty American dollars and placed it with the bill. Both Hermione and Harry stood up at the same time and then took hands before walking over to the Dursley's. Vernon was eating normally like a cow, Petunia was eating more like a rabbit, and Dudley was enjoying himself on a meat lover's omelet.
"Hi Aunt Pentunia, Dudley, Uncle Vernon." Harry said as nicely as he could trying to forget the past. Vernon shot up his eyes to see who just said that, and when he saw Harry his eyes seem to pop out of his head. Petunia seemed to lighten up a bit probably because of what happen last year.
"Harry there's something I need to tell you." Petunia said softly as she took a seat next to Harry's bed. Harry was laying down thinking about Hermione and how life was getting better.
"Yes?" Harry responded.
"You know that I never liked your mother and really I've never liked you because of what you were."
"Yes I know."
"Well I guess I came up here to tell you that it's untrue. In fact I loved your mother like a sister should. And you, well I consider you more of a son then I do Dudley." Petunia said with a sincere voice, Harry turned his head to look at her, his eyes bore into hers and then he knew that it was the truth.
"Why tell me now?" curiously Harry asked.
"Cause, I was afraid that Vernon might have gotten mad of what you were. I had to act like that for your protection." Petunia quickly embraced Harry in a hug. Harry thought to himself that life was even better now.
Dudley looked up with a smile on his face, his eyes quickly scanned Hermione up and down, Harry noticed but didn't mind since he wasn't doing anything more.
"What are you doing here boy." Vernon asked as politely as his mind would let him.
"Just having a long needed vacation with my girlfriend." Harry said as he held tightly onto Hermione. Hermione just smiled and held onto Harry. Vernon looked to Hermione, his eyes scanned her up and down which made both Harry and Hermione uncomfortable.
"Is she another freak like you?" Vernon spoke quietly trying not to bring attention to them. Hermione seemed taken back by his comment and was tempted to slap Vernon in the face but was held back by Harry.
"No she is not a freak like me." Harry responded which seemed to only piss off Vernon more.
"Dudley you look great." Hermione broke the conversation between Harry and Vernon, Dudley quickly flushed with red.
"Tha-tha-thank you." Dudley stuttered. Hermione giggled, Harry smiled at Dudley.
"How you doing Aunt Petunia?" Harry asked politely.
"I'm fine honey," Petunia replied before going back to her food, Vernon looked at her as if she was a freak herself since she was talking to Harry nicely.
"That is it! YOU FREAK! LEAVE OUR PRESENCE NOW BEFORE I CALL THE COPS!" Vernon shouted. The restaurant went dead silent as everyone turned there heads to look at Harry and Hermione standing there with purple headed Vernon. Both Dudley and Petunia turn their heads down and just stared at their food.
"Leave us now!" Vernon was little more soft-spoken this time around.
"Sorry to be bothering you." Hermione said then walked out with Harry who was steaming.
"I can't believe after all this time he still thinks that is how the world runs today. That Wizards and Muggles should be separate. Also that wizards are just freaks of nature that shouldn't be around." Harry hastily said while walking through the casino with Hermione by his side.
"Harry don't worry about it maybe it's for the best." Hermione said trying to keep the good spirit around.
"I just hate it, I hate seeing my aunt being treated like a second class citizen." Said Harry.
"I know, but in time she will come to her senses." Hermione smiled as they walked out onto the Las Vegas strip. Harry shielded his eyes from the glaring sun while Hermione just put on some sunglasses. Harry smirked at Hermione who giggled and continued to walk down the strip.
?
"Now is the time, time when our nation is to rise and destroy all that stands in our way." Dracula's voice rose over the council of clans. "I've waited far to long, I've done to much not to do anything anymore." Dracula spoke. "Our forces have been sent around the world to convince the other clans to rise and join our crusade against the living for that it is our time to rule the world." The crowd that had gathered in the hall cheered and roared loudly.
"What about Harry Potter!" a voice from within the crowd yelled silencing them all.
Dracula quickly turned to the voice and noticed it was a young child no older then ten years of age. "Do not worry about Harry Potter, I will deal with him myself. As a nation we must not worry about just one rogue vampire, We must look to the future, the future where we vampires will rule this world." Loudly Dracula spoke making the crowd cheer louder. Dracula stepped off the petal stood to let another speaking come up, waiting there for Dracula was Alucard his son.
"Father, our spies say that Harry is in Las Vegas, the states." Alucard said while walking down the hall with Dracula. Dracula just nodded while folding his hands behind his back.
"We need to deal with him now." Dracula clearly stated before turning into his quarters and shutting the door behind him. Alucard just standing there quickly made his way down to the end of the hall before turning into a small room where three men were waiting for him.
"Get on the lines with our men in Las Vegas." Alucard order a blond headed vampire. "You there, find out who is with Mr. Potter, any family friends?" Another blond vampire nodded before turning back to the computer console. Alucard stood there waiting to receive the information, his hand tapped against the cold hard metal table.

Harry promised her at the time they finally announce that they were officially a couple that he wouldn't read her thoughts and he wasn't going to break it now. The waiter came back with Hermione's order and placed the plate in front of her which seem to break her concentration. "Oh thank you." Hermione looked to the waiter and smiled. The waiter nodded before turning around and walking away. Harry looked at Hermione as if she had done something wrong.
"Something wrong?" Hermione turned her head up to Harry.
"Oh no, nothing." Said Hermione.
"Alright," Harry said just before the waiter came to give them there check. It showed that Hermione certainly had a large appetite for salads. Hermione quickly finished her food then looked at the check and flushed with embarrassment.
"Sorry, I'll pay for it." Hermione said quickly. "No, don't worry about it, remember you invited me to go on this trip with you least I can do is pay for the food." Harry smiled before taking out his wallet and getting out fifty American dollars and placed it with the bill. Both Hermione and Harry stood up at the same time and then took hands before walking over to the Dursley's. Vernon was eating normally like a cow, Petunia was eating more like a rabbit, and Dudley was enjoying himself on a meat lover's omelet.
"Hi Aunt Pentunia, Dudley, Uncle Vernon." Harry said as nicely as he could trying to forget the past. Vernon shot up his eyes to see who just said that, and when he saw Harry his eyes seem to pop out of his head. Petunia seemed to lighten up a bit probably because of what happen last year.
"Harry there's something I need to tell you." Petunia said softly as she took a seat next to Harry's bed. Harry was laying down thinking about Hermione and how life was getting better.
"Yes?" Harry responded.
"You know that I never liked your mother and really I've never liked you because of what you were."
"Yes I know."
"Well I guess I came up here to tell you that it's untrue. In fact I loved your mother like a sister should. And you, well I consider you more of a son then I do Dudley." Petunia said with a sincere voice, Harry turned his head to look at her, his eyes bore into hers and then he knew that it was the truth.
"Why tell me now?" curiously Harry asked.
"Cause, I was afraid that Vernon might have gotten mad of what you were. I had to act like that for your protection." Petunia quickly embraced Harry in a hug. Harry thought to himself that life was even better now.
Dudley looked up with a smile on his face, his eyes quickly scanned Hermione up and down, Harry noticed but didn't mind since he wasn't doing anything more.
"What are you doing here boy." Vernon asked as politely as his mind would let him.
"Just having a long needed vacation with my girlfriend." Harry said as he held tightly onto Hermione. Hermione just smiled and held onto Harry. Vernon looked to Hermione, his eyes scanned her up and down which made both Harry and Hermione uncomfortable.
"Is she another freak like you?" Vernon spoke quietly trying not to bring attention to them. Hermione seemed taken back by his comment and was tempted to slap Vernon in the face but was held back by Harry.
"No she is not a freak like me." Harry responded which seemed to only piss off Vernon more.
"Dudley you look great." Hermione broke the conversation between Harry and Vernon, Dudley quickly flushed with red.
"Tha-tha-thank you." Dudley stuttered. Hermione giggled, Harry smiled at Dudley.
"How you doing Aunt Petunia?" Harry asked politely.
"I'm fine honey," Petunia replied before going back to her food, Vernon looked at her as if she was a freak herself since she was talking to Harry nicely.
"That is it! YOU FREAK! LEAVE OUR PRESENCE NOW BEFORE I CALL THE COPS!" Vernon shouted. The restaurant went dead silent as everyone turned there heads to look at Harry and Hermione standing there with purple headed Vernon. Both Dudley and Petunia turn their heads down and just stared at their food.
"Leave us now!" Vernon was little more soft-spoken this time around.
"Sorry to be bothering you." Hermione said then walked out with Harry who was steaming.
"I can't believe after all this time he still thinks that is how the world runs today. That Wizards and Muggles should be separate. Also that wizards are just freaks of nature that shouldn't be around." Harry hastily said while walking through the casino with Hermione by his side.
"Harry don't worry about it maybe it's for the best." Hermione said trying to keep the good spirit around.
"I just hate it, I hate seeing my aunt being treated like a second class citizen." Said Harry.
"I know, but in time she will come to her senses." Hermione smiled as they walked out onto the Las Vegas strip. Harry shielded his eyes from the glaring sun while Hermione just put on some sunglasses. Harry smirked at Hermione who giggled and continued to walk down the strip.

"Now is the time, time when our nation is to rise and destroy all that stands in our way." Dracula's voice rose over the council of clans. "I've waited far to long, I've done to much not to do anything anymore." Dracula spoke. "Our forces have been sent around the world to convince the other clans to rise and join our crusade against the living for that it is our time to rule the world." The crowd that had gathered in the hall cheered and roared loudly.
"What about Harry Potter!" a voice from within the crowd yelled silencing them all.
Dracula quickly turned to the voice and noticed it was a young child no older then ten years of age. "Do not worry about Harry Potter, I will deal with him myself. As a nation we must not worry about just one rogue vampire, We must look to the future, the future where we vampires will rule this world." Loudly Dracula spoke making the crowd cheer louder. Dracula stepped off the petal stood to let another speaking come up, waiting there for Dracula was Alucard his son.
"Father, our spies say that Harry is in Las Vegas, the states." Alucard said while walking down the hall with Dracula. Dracula just nodded while folding his hands behind his back.
"We need to deal with him now." Dracula clearly stated before turning into his quarters and shutting the door behind him. Alucard just standing there quickly made his way down to the end of the hall before turning into a small room where three men were waiting for him.
"Get on the lines with our men in Las Vegas." Alucard order a blond headed vampire. "You there, find out who is with Mr. Potter, any family friends?" Another blond vampire nodded before turning back to the computer console. Alucard stood there waiting to receive the information, his hand tapped against the cold hard metal table.
