“No, my love. I am the unread.”
“Undead! Wait a minute you want to drink my blood? ”
Emma put her hands to her throat to cover it.
“Yes, I love to honest. When cut your finger my
control almost snap. ” Don’t worry I not going to hurt you, my
love.” Come with me I show you sometime. ” Andre took her hand and
leads her to the Bar. He went behind the bar and turned his back.
Opening a small refresher he took out a pint of blood with the
label of a hospital.
“This is how I get blood now from the hospital. It
has been 150 yr since I took blood from another never by
force.”
“What about the Countess? Emma asked
“She is my maker. She and her two gentleman friends
come to me one cold night. At my father’s castle within a week’s
time, I have lost my two sisters, my mother and my father was
driving to suicide. He hanged himself in front of the castle.
“When the Countess I felt dead inside and didn’t care
about myself. She bit and turned me into a vampire at the time she
had to hold over me but over time the bond I had with her fade. As
long as she is living the sound is there.”
“What going to happen tomorrow night?”
“A trial of sorts to see if I broke any vampire
rules.” The elders can be heartless and very cold. Elders are the
old vampires and very powerful the Covet of Vampires is an ancient
book of rules for vampires.”
“What happens when if a vampire breaks the
rules?”
“Death .”
“Everything is going to be alright, my love. I want
you to stay here for tonight. Soon dawn will be here. I will feel
better knowing that you are near to me.”
“Yes, I want to stay near you and show me your
coffin.”
“Are you sure? It won’t fright you.”
“No, I need to see it, to understand. It’s not every
day that your boyfriend says he is a vampire.”
“Come with me. My love. ” Andre takes Emma’s hand and
leads her into a secret entrance where the bar was. Entering a
small lighting room then the was an old wood door with an old
fashioned key. Nearby there was a statue of a join in it mouth, was
a key. Andre reach into its mouth took an out the key. Bringing it
to the lock and unlocked the door.
Then both of them step into another room. There in
the centered in the room was a black coffin. On either side long
candle sticks with candles, light. Emma is walking up to the coffin
and touching it running her hand on it.
‘This real, is it? ” Emma asked.
“Yes, it is, I love.” Andre took her other hand to
his lips and kisses it.
“I want see you in your coffin and how you are.”
“Are you sure, Emma? I will stop breathing and look
like the dead. Cold to the touch and it is not a pretty sight to
you.”
“Yes”
Andre picked up the phone and talk for a few minutes
and hangs up.
“Tom is coming and will meet you when I am in my
coffin.”
“It is time. My love.” Andre opened the lid of the
coffin and climbed in and laid down.
Emma reached over and took his hand and watched as
the effects of the dawn coming. Andre closes his eyes as his chest
stopped moving his whole body stiffen like the dead. His skin
became cold Emma took her other and other and trace his face.
Placing his hand down she closed the lid when she her voice being
called.
“Miss Emma, is you ready to leave?” Tom asked.
“Yes, I am Tom thank you.”

Early in the morning Walter got home and start
calling his old
Army buddies. He told them to meet him back at his
place. Since he didn’t know what he was dealing with. Walter pulled
out his army uniform and starts to get his weapons ready.
In the back of his head he pulled out silver bullets
and crosses. Walter felt that he needed to do research on the
Club21. He went down to the courthouse to see. He learned that
through years the building has been removed and charged into bars
and clubs.
It never opened for a long period of time only for a
few months and then it will close. A little time will go by and it
reopened with a different name. Reports started to show up and that
the costumers started to act and had a loss of memory. Then a word
came that surprised even Walter vampires.
A report states that a group of teenagers that want
to if any ghost were around the building. They soon discovered
something much worse a vampires. All of the them were found dead
expected one who was charged with the killings. The court found him
insane at the time of the murders and was sentenced to medical
hospital outside the town.
Robert Gilbert was his name. Walter wrote his name
down. He knew where the medical hospital. He left the courthouse
and starts to out of the town. Of the years, he heard that some
people try to escape but was caught. It was a long dirt road then
there was a sign saying,
Woodlands Medical Health Hospital the next 25
miles.
Turning right Walter turned down the road. It seems
to be forever when he saw iron gates and some building where a
security guards. The guard asked to see his kid then he opened the
iron gates. Taking back his id Walter drove through then the gates
closed behind him.
Outside the building looked like it was going to fall
down any minute Walter was surprised that it was still open.
Walking up to it and opened the doors. He walked up to the front
desk and asked if he could see Robert Gilbert. The nurse asked why
and Walter said
“It is for his boss at the newspaper he wants do
another story about the murders.”
“You have gone go 15 minutes, and then you can talk
to him. He doesn’t make much sense.”
While he was waiting he checks his recorder and made
sure it was working. Then a hospital orderly came wearing a tight
white shirt that was showing his muscles.
“Come with me.”
Walter got up and the orderly into a long hall where
on either side there were doors. Doors little windows as they
passed through men will yell and pounding trying to get through the
locked doors.
“I am going to be safe.”
“Yes, he is a special case He must have restraints at
all times.”
“When you are done knocked at the door.” The orderly
opened the door and Walter walked through the door. The room was
very plain like a regular cell and there was a small window. There
was a bunk bed and a very small desk that Robert was sitting.
Looking up He saw the Walter there.
“I see that I have a visitor. “ Don’t worry you are
safe. ” He got up and around his feet the were chains.
“What is that you want?”
“My name is Walter. I am a reporter and I doing a
story about the murders and your trial.”
“You should have all it already.”
“I do but I want to know why.”
“Dude, I don’t know why. The last thing I remember
was when I woke up all my friends is dead and I am covered with
blood. The police came and hauled my ass to jail. Then my parents
were called.”
“So you had memory loss about the murders.”
“Yes, even now I have nightmares at night.”
“Why do you want to know?
“I have a girlfriend that I think she might be in
trouble.”
“She will be if she goes into the Club21” Here is
something you should look at.” I wrote down the nightmare and have
drawings.”
Robert handed Walter the notebook and said,
“You must save your girlfriend. She is in danger I
have seen them”
“Who are they?”
“Vampires, with sharp fangs that tear out your flesh
into
And drink blood within minutes. ”
Vampires are you for real? Everyone knows that there
is no such
thing as vampires running around. ”
“They are well hidden and been walking among humans
for centuries.”
“Walter, we been on missions and through dessert
storm. So if you say there are vampires running the round I believe
you. The rest of the boys will too. When do we strike, Walter?”
“Tonight is late. Let’s tell the rest of the
guys.”

At sunset on Andre awoke in his coffin. His raise his
hand and left the coffin led
open. He knows that after tonight nothing is going to
be the same.
At all cost, he had to Emma safe from the Vampires at
Club21. He will sacrifice his own life and face the sun. He already
knows were he going and is at peace with it.
Andre walked up to the table and picks up a match. He
strikes the match and light the candle. Then he went to open the
secret door and locked it.
He enters the living room where Tom was behind the
bar.
“Good evening, Master Andre.”
“Good evening. Did you check on Emma, Tom?”
“Yes, she is still sleeping.”
Tom opens the refrigerator and took out a pint of
blood. Pours into
A glass and hand it to Andre took the glass.
“You know what to do if I am unable to back”
“Yes, I do.”
“Good, I will go to Emma.”
Within an hour Andre and Emma left the house they
entered the car and
drive into the night.
Arriving at the Club21, they got out and entered it.
The doors closed with
Aloud thud.
“Don’t be afraid. Emma.”
“I am not, Andre.”
In blink of a eye the room was full of vampires
“It is so nice to see you , And Emma is special
guest.
I must say that you are the first Human here not
being under a vampire’s
power.” Countess Elizabeth said.
“It not like I had a choice in this matter. I love
Andre, being
In of vampires or humans, it doesn't Matter.”
Suddenly the doors flew open and Walter and his men
enter.
“What is the meaning of this!” cry
Countess Elizabeth.
“Walter, what are you doing here?”
“I came to save you Emma.”
“Walter, I don’t need saving.”
“Yes, you do. Andre is a vampire and I am going to
kill him.”
“No, please don’t.”
“You are a very foolish human.” You can’t fight a
room of vampires,
You will lose. ”
All the vampires’ flash their razor are fangs and
hissing. In blurring the humans and vampires met. When Andre was
fighting with Walter. Countess Elizabeth walked up to Emma and
before Emma could get away Elizabeth had her by the throat.
“What does Andre see you my dear. I have known him
for centuries. I am the one who created him. He should have undying
love for me not you. ”
“It because you are pure evil. Andre may be
attractive to your beauty. The
love I have for him is pure. ” “How dare you take me
that way? What the America saying: If I can’t have him no one will.
”
Elizabeth opened her mouth to bite Emma when she felt
a sharp pain going into her body. Blood ran down her lips. Turning
around Elizabeth saw Andre.
In a flash Andre was beside Emma and together they
pushed the stake deeper
into Elizabeth’s body.
Elizabeth fell down and starts to turn into bones and
dust.
all fighting stop at that moment. Forcing all the
vampires to leave. Andre and Emma looked around and found Walter
had been bitten.
“Walter, are you alright?”
“No, one of the vampire's bite before I chance to
fight. ” What going to happen to me? ” I am dying?
“Where are my men?”
“They are dead, Walter” Emma said
“Yes, “You are.”
“You can’t leave him like this. We have to help
him.”
“I can save him but it has to be his choice. Do you
what live or die?
“To live.” Walter said in a weaker voice. Andre
grasped Walter’s hand and Brought it to his mouth.
Opening his mouth he bites Walter. He stopped
drinking wiping the blood
from his mouth. Then Andre made a cut on His wrist
and put it up to Walter’s lips And said,
“Drink, Walter.”
After that everything went blank. Andre Called Tom
and with his help they put
Walter in the car.
The next night Walter awoke up A vampire and started
his new life.
“I want to thank you for saving
my life, Andre. ”
“It not a life but a curse. I didn’t have my choice
Elizabeth took my life.
“Yes, she was pure evil.”
You can stay here and I will teach you how to
survive. ”
“What are you guys talking about? Asked Emma. She
walked in the living room. She went to Andre and kissed him.
“Guy talk.” Walter said with a smile.
“How do you feel?”
“Very good, expect the hunger.”
Andre handed Walter a glass with some blood in
it.
“I hope you can handle both vampires in your life.
Emma”.
“Yes, I can.” I didn't lose a friend.”
“You will not, Emma. We are one big family now”.
