Chapter: 1

My eyes glowed in the pale moon light as I race to find my drudge, she had managed to have gotten lost as we were heading towards Bathory. I look from left to right quickly, trying to smell her, being human she is very vunerable right now. My pace quickens as I feel her presence growing even more, and I smell the fear erupting from her fragile body.

"Ashra!" her voice bounced off every tree in the forest, it quivered a little, like she was going to cry.

I appear behind the girl and wrap my arms around her waist and kisses her warm neck, "Don't cry Shadow, I'm here now." I talked to her through my thoughts, letting a wave of safety wash over her.

She spun around, quickly wrapping her arms around my neck and hiding her hot and wet face in my neck, "You run to fast!" she wanted to be mad at me, but was failing sadly.

"I asked you if you wanted to get on my back and travel that way" I kisses her head and sighed softlly.

"I didn't want to be a bother to you..." she let out a ragged breath.
I gently shook my head and smiled sweetly, "I chose you to be my drudge, you don't bother me, my little flower." I swiftly pick her up and pull her onto my back, then continues to sprint back towards the small town. She relaxed quickly on my back, and soon fell into a deep sleep, I smiled at her worry. I looked up and saw that the sun was slowly rising, I knew I had to get to the town quickly. I had nothing to protect my skin from the sun, so I sped up even more, becoming a dark blur.

I reached a very old, tall, abandoned building, which seemed vey inviting to a vampire. I hovered to the open window and stepped in. It had wax scattering the floor, it seemed like I wasn't the first to be here. I walked to the farthest corner where the sun wouldn't hit us. I sat down and laid Shadow's head on my lap and smiled sweetly. "Sleep well my sweet little flower." I quickly fell asleep as the sun's rays flooded the rest of the room.

I was awoken by an angered growl, I opened my eyes seeing it was once again dark. The only light was oming from a few candles, a dark haired male stood next to them, his teeth glimering in the light. "Why are you here" his voice shook with anger, but also a little fear.

I yawned a little and looked down to make sure Shadow was sill asleep, then I gently laid her on the floor and stood up. I rubbed the mark on my my arm and it glowed, showing "(~)" hoping the other vampire would recognize it.
He must not have because he stepped back and growled, "Who and what are you?."

I sighed, "My name is Ashra Vikinan, I am a fellow vampire... I have come to this town in search for someone."
His faced relaxed and he took a step towards me, "Why are you here then?"

"I had to rest here because the sun was coming up rather quickly and I had nothing to protect my skin from the sun. And my drudge and I had been traveling for a long time and we needed to rest."
He reached into his pocket and threw me a tube of something, "Its sunscreen, it works, believe me. Where is your drudge at?" he looked around a little, not noticing her hidden away in the shadows.
I walked over to her, her eyes were open and trying to adjust to the amount of light. I help her up and walk a little closer to the boy, her hand in mine. "This is Shadow, my drudge."
He nodded his head and spoke quietly, "I'm Vladamir Tod, this my private place I come every once and a while."
"I'm sorry to have intruded, but we need a place to stay, so we won't be sniffed out." I look over at my love and I kiss her forehead.

"Are you being hunted by someone?"

"No, but we need to keep our presence known to a minimum. So we aren't forced to do something" I quickly look at the picture and back at the boy before he notices. He was the son of my closes friends, Tomas and his wife.

"Well... I will come back tomorrow night, so I will go a head and take you to my place right now so you can get some well rested sleep." he leaned down and blew out the candles and gathered everything up in his arms, then stepped of the window ledge and hovered down.

I pulled Shadow onto my back and stepped onto the ledge and just jumped down and landed hard on my feet, "Lead the way Vladamir Tod."

"Alright, and please call me Vlad. Nobody calls me by my full name."
"Alright then." I follow him as he takes off towards his home, I grip tightly onto my necklace and pray that nobody finds me while I'm here.
