Say Goodbye to the Light, Say Hello to the Night

My name is Willow like the tree. I was 18 when I was killed, but I never died. I still walk among you, feeding of the blood of the innocent. I am what you fear, but believe doesn't exist. I am the thing of nights. I am a Vampire.

The year is 1821; George IV has just been crowned king. I sit in the dinning hall with mother whilst father tells us the news. My name is Mary Willow Kaltburg. My father is a rich man he is a scientist while my mother works around the house. I have been promised a young man by the name of Marcus Jackson. I have no interest in him. The day I was murdered mother and I had decided to take a trip to the market. I didn't see who man who killed me I just heard the screams of people after it happened. I felt a sharp japing pain then, I fell to the ground. Mother called out for help. Everything went black.

When I woke up I was lying in a big bed not my own. The room I found my self in was not that of a hospital. I climbed out of the bed only to find I was dizzy. I fell but hit the floor. ‘Easy child’ I heard a voice. I looked up to see a man standing over me he was dressed like everyone else but he was oddly pail. ‘Who are you’ I asked
‘I am James and welcome to my home’ he said
‘What am I doing here’ I asked
‘You where killed remember I was it all happen but I thought you where to pretty to let you rot so I brought you here to my family’ he smiled
‘If I am dead then how am I here’ I asked
‘You’re the undead’ He smiled
‘Undead as in Vampire’ I said
‘Yes’ he smiled
‘How is that possible’ I whispered
‘I changed you’ he said
‘Are there anymore’ I asked
‘Yes come meet my family’ he smiled

I managed to stand on my own two feet and walk. As we walked along the halls James didn’t talk. It wasn’t until we reached the dinning hall he spoke. ‘This is our family’ he said waving his arm ‘Now sit we must meet and eat’ he laughed. James pointed out a chair next at the end of the table. ‘That is yours’ he smiled. I sat down and waited for James to start. ‘Everyone this is Willow’ he smiled
‘Willow time to meet the family this charming lady here is my wife Gloria’ James said
‘Hello’ she said
‘Hi’ I said
‘And these are our 4 kids our daughters Maria and Grace and our sons Bronx and Asher’ James said
‘Nice to met you all’ I said
‘Welcome to the family’ Grace said
‘Thank’ I said
‘Tine to eat’ James said clapping his hands together.

At his words everyone stood up. ‘Stand up’ Grace whispered. I stood and waited. Soon everyone started to walk out of the room following James. ‘Just follow me’ Grace smiled. I nodded and followed her. We walk out of the castle and into the town. We stopped in town square. ‘Now my family hunt’ James smiled
‘I’ll help Willow’ Grace smiled
‘Good Girl’ James said

I followed Grace until she stopped out of a house. ‘Second floor a young man he smells divine’ Grace said
‘What do I do’ I asked
‘Simple you drink his blood but don’t kill him’ Grace warned
‘How do I drink his blood’ I asked
‘Stick your teeth into his neck’ she smiled

When she smiled I saw two sharp teeth. I turned from her and looked up at the window. All of a sudden I was inside the house. I walked over to the young mans bed. I wasn’t until I seen his face I knew who he was. ‘Marcus’ I whispered

I could smell his blood it was over whelming I could no longer stand it. I help bit down into his neck the blood flowing freely into my mouth. That copper taste was so amazing. I pulled back knowing I couldn’t kill him. I shouldn’t kill him. I jumped from the window. ‘So did you like’ Grace asked
‘It was amazing’ I smiled
‘Now go smell out the next one’ Grace smiled

I ran off looking for a new snack. I found a smell that I could not but follow. I sent was overwhelming. I followed it until I came across a boy not much older then me. He was beautiful. I bit down into his welcoming neck. I pulled back licking my lips. I went to lick the blood of my teeth when I cut my tongue. Not worrying about the cut I began to drink again it wasn’t until he began to seizure I though something was wrong. I jumped from the window and called for Grace who came running. ‘What happened’ she asked
‘I think I kill him’ I whispered
‘Who’ she asked
‘The boy in that room’ I said

We both went to the boy he was still shaking. ‘He changing’ Grace gasped
‘What do we do’ I asked
‘Get him to James’ Grace said

I grabbed the boy and jumped out his window. Grace and I ran for James. James was standing in the town center. ‘Where’s the boy’ he asked
‘Here how did you know we where coming’ I asked
‘Grace read minds and sends messages to others’ James said
“What do we do about the boy’ Grace asked
‘We can’t stop it he’ll just have to join the family’ James said
‘But who will be his’ Grace asked
‘Willow she changed him’ James said
‘What do you mean I’ll be his?’ I asked
‘He’ll be your beloved’ James said
‘Why?” I asked
‘Well as you know I have Gloria, but what you don’t know is that Grace was the first turned we let her chose another to be hers she chose Bronx like Asher chose Maria’ James said
‘So I’m stuck with him’ I said
‘I afraid so’ James said
‘I don’t know him’ I said
‘You will in time for now let’s get him home’ James said
