Hey, new Night World Fanfic, hope you like it and PLEASE REVIEW :3

Chapter 1: Fate

When darkness surrounds you, the only thing you can do is succumb.

The night was full, only the stars shone, as if trying to bring a little bit of light and hope to the people suffering on the cold streets of Vegas. It is actually very rare to call Vegas' streets cold, but with what will happen… cold stays short.

The four teens were terrified; they didn't know what was happening, they just knew that seconds ago they had been on a disco with a sweet looking girl, and now they were on an alley, (a stinking one may I add), full of trash and scary graffiti that went from nice skulls to horrible devils, just with a lamp to light their corner while they watched in horror as the two figures at the entrance got closer.

Step. Step. Step.

"WHO ARE YOU?!" Started screaming one of the guys, trying to sound menacing but ending up just hysterical.

Step. Step. Step.

"WHO ARE YOUU?!" Cried one of the girls, fear sparking on her eyes.

The figures were just savoring every moment, every second of fear, anticipating the pleasure they were about to feel.

Then they stepped on the light… and the teenagers started laughing.

"God! You had us scared to death! You shouldn't joke around like that, it is just cruel." Started one of the guys, he had light brown hair and eyes with all the appearance to be a weight lifter. He was asking himself how he could get scared so easily, the people standing in front of him were teens just like them.

The girl in front of him was the one from the disco, she had silky long black hair that resembled the night and gorgeous green-yellow eyes that stared at him with a devilish and satisfied grin, she was wearing a short strapless white dress that fit her perfectly, she was the kind of girl you always turned to look on the streets… The boy next to her was one you would turn to look at too, he had high cheekbones like her but his eyes were a strange gold, his hair was light-brown and he was dressing in full black, they seemed to have come from a…

He couldn't finish the thought because something had changed on the boy and the girl.

Their eyes got silvery and they looked even more beautiful, their features had accentuated and the girl's curves got even more sinuous, but the scarier thing was their smiles, they looked plain cruel… with fangs protruding from their red lips.

"Cruel? That is a nice word don't you think? It defines the world and all of their inhabitants. The real ones at least… Ow! And darkness! That is another beautiful word, right? It defines what should reign on the world." Said the girl with a seductive tone while she started walking towards the boy that spoke, then surprisingly she kissed him on the neck. She felt so powerful while she watched the boy and his friend's expression turn into pure horror on the dim light.

"Dawn, if you don't mind I'm getting hungry here… I can barely resist watching their necks…" The guy said, first with a tired tone then with desire and hunger on his voice and sparking eyes.

"As you wish." Whispered Dawn while smiling savagely.

Then the feast began… and it was horrible… at the end the poor humans were unrecognizable and they were left just like bloody trash, without a last look from the guy and the girl.

"Lucian, when did you say we had to be on Hunter's place?" Asked Dawn, while flashing him one of her charming smiles… but that was just a façade, there was something inside of her that told her something was going to change that night.

Lucian stared at her and said with a twisted tone: "In ten minutes… Are you alright? You seem a little bit shaken. Am I seeing regret?"

Dawn stared at him with a murderous flash on her eyes, but when she spoke her voice was just seductive. "Shut up Lucian… you don't want to see me mad, do you?"

He watched her lips, red as night, but he did shut up. She was six hundred years old and could finish him without breaking a sweat.

Dawn ignored him after that. She just stared at the darkness of the street they were in, she wasn't afraid but sometimes she wondered how the real light was… then she shrugged the thought, she was the darkness and that was what should reign… everywhere.

"Dawn dear, you are my only daughter now…" Started Hunter Redfern with an impatient look. Lucian stayed outside and now she was alone with him.

Of course, he wasn't her real father, he just took care of her when her parents died, well, got killed. Not that she really cared, her father was as evil as her… but her mother… she didn't really remember her, but the few memories she had about her, she was surrounded in light. Maybe, that was real light.

"What? Lily is dead? What about the Wild Power?" Dawn said with surprise, she didn't expect Lily to fail. She knew her, they both were as cold and calculating… but that meant a chance for her to get more power.

"Yes she is, and I fear that the Wild Power has escaped from our hands… Lily couldn't handle it and now I don't even have the identity of the Wild Power!" He said with anger on his golden eyes. Well, that is what you could call a father agonizing for his daughter's death.

Dawn was on the studio of Hunter's creepy mansion; it was full of old and new books on black shelves that couldn't be less than a hundred years old- it was a miracle they hadn't collapsed yet; the rest of the furniture was the only thing that looked new. The walls were dark brown and on every space there was a scary painting, most were portraits of people whose eyes followed you wherever you went, and in every corner of the room there were chandeliers that gave dim light to the place. Hunter was sitting behind his black desk and Dawn was sitting in front of it.

"And… there must be something I can do to… correct that mistake." She said with her usual breath taking smile.

Hunter grinned and this time it was his real smile, not the one he showed to the rest of the world. The cruel one. "Yes, there is. You see, there was something she could communicate to me before the fatality… the name of a Daybreaker that probably knows about the wild power… Hugh Davis."

Daybreakers… for her, they were just traitors- scum that believed vermin should be at the same height as her and the rest of the Night World. Unforgivable. "So, you want me to find him and… persuade him to tell me about the Wild Power?" Her grin never left her red lips. In her whole life, nobody- human or Night Worlder- had resisted her persuasion.

"Yes, now Dawn I need to go, we have found something that will really give us advantage against those Daybreakers. My daughter, Nox, will tell you anything you need to know about that vermin."

A human, great! Dawn thought while smiling coldly towards the men with the golden eyes. Immediately after he left, one of Hunter's followers got inside.

"Good to see you again Lady Dracul." He spoke respectfully while walking towards her with a few papers on his hand.

Her family was one of the first lamia and now as she was the last of the direct line, the title of "Lady of the Night World" fell on her. She didn't like that Lady thing, but she certainly loved the power that came with her title.

"To business." She simply said.

With just one glance he started explaining everything to her "Hugh Davis is an Old Soul, an awakened one besides. We believe he will make a long trip these days to accomplish a very important mission that Lord Thierry himself entrusted him. So, yours is not just to find the location of the Wild Power, but to figure which and where will be his mission, then bring him here for further interrogation." At last he gave her one picture of him.

"That is him… you can keep the picture if that is your will, lady Dracul." it seemed that all of Hunter's people had that same cruel and horrible tone- including her.

When Dawn saw the picture she was shocked. He really was an awakened Old Soul.

It was a full body picture, he was wearing jeans with a white shirt and had a lean compact body, his hair was light, but what shocked her the most, was the guy's expression. His eyes were sad and gentle at the same time, with a deep look that showed how much he had seen; he was smiling and that grin was unique, it was barely visible; the one you have when a tender memory crosses your mind- maybe he was remembering an old love or a present joy…

The moment of shock passed and Dawn grinned savagely, her eyes evil.

An awakened Old Soul… that just promised her fun.

Hugh Davis was on his way towards Lord Thierry's mansion. He felt very honored that the head of Circle Daybreak was asking for his assistance, it meant he was doing things right.

He was wearing a gray shirt that made his eyes shine and jeans, those always made him feel comfortable. He looked like a normal teenager on a nice morning making his way through the crowded streets of Vegas- only he wasn't, he was an Old Soul; a human that keeps returning to the earth once one of his lives is over. Therefore, he had seen a lot; nevertheless he still saw the beauty and the light on every face, on every detail.

That is why his eyes always looked fathomless, just a gray eternity.

When he finally arrived to that big white mansion, it was midday and the sun was up in the perennial blue sky. He had a warm welcome by a girl dressed like a bodyguard, Lupe Acevedo. He had seen and talked with her before, so they led a pleasant and light conversation while Lupe walked Hugh toward Lord Thierry's studio.

When Hugh got inside, he saw Lord Thierry writing a letter, he had those same eyes that send the message: I've been through a lot.

The studio wasn't that big but it looked warm and welcoming, the walls were light brown resembling a forest in the heat of the day.

"Lord Descoudres." Said Hugh while inclining his head respectfully.

"Mr Davis, please take a seat and call me just Thierry."

"If you call me Hugh." he said with a warm smile, while taking a seat.

"Hugh, I have called you today to ask your assistance on a very important mission, and before I mention the details I want you to know it is dangerous… I will give you protection but anyway it will be." Lord Thierry said, seriousness staining his voice and eyes.

"Thierry, I believe in Circle Daybreak and I will be more than happy to help." His determination exceeded Thierry's seriousness.

"Well then. Hugh, our sources had told us the rumors about Hunter Redfern. They say that he has discovered an ancient cave, one that encloses… Dragons… and that at some point in the future he will awaken them."

This fell like a rock to Hugh. Dragons.

His memories of past lives didn't go as far as the shapeshifter era, but close. The fear that humanity held against them remained for a long time and on his first life he had felt it and that is something that couldn't return, not with everything going on already.

"So now I am asking you to investigate the rumor. I am pretty sure that they don't know about you so I think you will be able to dig on the local legends and if they are true, I need you to give me the location of the cave."

"And where should I start my investigation?" His deep eyes got even deeper and the determination on his voice was such that Lord Thierry couldn't help but feel admiration towards him. He knew that just like him, Hugh had seen a lot and that not everything might have been good- however he was now standing there, brave and gentle willing to risk his life for the good.

The place was far away and with a sigh he spoke. "In Ireland, in the capital, Dublin. I have been informed too that Hunter Redfern's people are executing… experiments to figure out how to awaken the dragons and of course, they are using humans. That might be the reason of the disappearances there. Now I am asking you for the last time: Hugh, do you officially accept the mission?" Thierry hoped that after listening to this, he would be wise and refuse- but he didn't.

Well, this brought Hugh a memory… when he was on Jez's room and just after she saved his life he had given her the mission that revealed her as the Wild Power and put her life on great danger.

Jez... she already had her soulmate, but Hugh couldn't help his feelings- the only thing he could do, was to be as brave as her.

"Yes Thierry, I do."
