Disclaimer: I do not own the Nyuesigrube world, it belongs to Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, and I'm lucky enough that she allows people to write fan fictions for it. That being said, so far the only character in this story that is not mine is Siete, the rest are. That's all, enjoy.
Comments welcome, flames fuel my bonfire
Chapter 1
"No thanks Uncle Siete, I still don't want be a vampire." She said, laughing a little as her Uncle Siete asked her yet again if she wanted to be immortal, just like he had at least once a month since she turned fifteen. He knew she would always say no, but it was a long running family joke now, and had been going since her Grandmother. She was the first one that Uncle Siete had offered immortality to, and she had said no as well. As had her mother, and her and her brothers whom Uncle Siete had just started making his offer to. Of course, he wasn't really their uncle, and for all they knew was not related to them at all. Uncle Siete was actually somewhere around 33,000 years old, and still looked about eighteen. Uncle Siete was the creator of all vampires, and one of the strongest creatures in existence.
He had met her grandmother when she was fifteen, and had run away from home with her grandfather and ended up in New Mayhem, a city owned entirely by vampires, which the human world, for the most part, knew nothing about. While there, a vampire had started to cause trouble for them, talking about how much better tasting shape shifter blood was than human blood.
When the vampire attacked, her grandmother, who had been a dancer among her native serpiente, pulled out a knife and quickly sliced the vampire's arm. Of course, the vampire, one of Silver's line, would have killed her grandparents if Siete had not stopped her. He liked the fighting spirit in her grandmother, and made it known that she was under his protection.
For awhile, he took care of her grandparents. Got them a home, jobs, a place to hide in the human world. They lived happily, and had her mother. Soon after she was born though, her grandfather was killed, taken out by a member of the Bruja Guild, Crimson., a bounty on his head though no one knew why, or who set it. Of course, when her grandmother walked into their house after work and saw her husband dead, and the hunter poised to kill her daughter, who was an infant at the time, she lost control. Taking her half-form, a skill lost to most shape shifters, she attacked the hunter. Her dancer reflexes allowed her to avoid the knife the hunter wielded, as did her bone structure, which had changed when she took her half-form. Finally, she got close enough to bite the hunter and inject her serpent's venom into her, killing her in a matter of moments.
She was twenty at the time, now the single mother to a four year old daughter. Uncle Siete offered her immortality then, saying she could live forever, she just had to say yes. He wouldn't turn her against her will.
She said no.
She couldn't leave her daughter, and if she became a vampire, she would have to, because she wasn't sure she'd be able to keep herself from changing her daughter when she was old enough to survive it.
He accepted, but kept offering. Soon it became a joke among them, as she was soon too old to survive the change.
When her mother was fifteen, the youngest Siete would change anyone, he offered it to her the first time. She had been dumped by a boy at school, and cried for days. Her grandmother called for her Uncle Siete with her mind, and he heard. He had always been able to cheer her mother up, so her grandmother asked if he would help. He went to her mother's room, and offered her immortality, saying then she could torment the boy for the rest of his life. Her mother laughed, and once again, it became a standing joke.
When her mother met her father, it was Uncle Siete that gave her away at the wedding. He was also named as Godfather to their children.
When she turned fifteen, Uncle Siete asked her if she wanted to be turned. He told her she would be very powerful, the daughter of a White Viper shape shifter and a Vida witch. Her mother was a White Viper shape shifter, like her mother, her grandfather had been a Python. Her father was a Vida witch, though unlike the rest of his kind he was not a vampire hunter. He had been raised by a mother who was born to two human parents, and only found out about her powers when she was sixteen. She learned what they would teach her, but when she had her father she refused to hunt, saying she wouldn't endanger her son that way. He had taught her everything he knew, so her and her brothers were trained, but they also weren't hunters, obviously since they called Siete uncle.
When it was offered to her, she said no just like her mother and grandmother before her. She didn't want to live forever, and the combination of her witch and shape shifter blood would have her live longer than a human anyway. When she had her daughter Chave at seventeen, to a mamba shape shifter, Uncle Siete was named as her Godfather as well. He got angry when her father didn't stay in the picture, but she told him not to worry, it was fine with her.
Now, at twenty, she still has no urge to be turned, no matter how powerful she would be. She has her family, she has her daughter and a few very close friends, she's attractive and young. Why would she want to change any of that?
Well, as fate would have it, she wouldn't have a choice.
