This is my first story and I know it is not very good, please leave a comment.
First sight.
I was just getting used to being a half vampire when Seba Nile, my mentor, decided it was time to present me to the Vampire Generals and Princes. I was to go to Vampire Mountain with Seba and meet other half vampires and then prove myself worthy of being a true vampire. I didn't want to admit it but I was really nervous but Seba remained calm as always and said that it would be fine and there was nothing to be worried about. So I trusted his judgement and became more relaxed.
The trek to Vampire Mountain was a difficult one but halfway there we met up with another vampire that Seba knew before he left the mountain. The vampire had an assistant by his side, a half vampire like me, and we got along really well. His name was Gavner Purl and he was being shown to the Vampire Princes as well.
We eventually got to Vampire Mountain and entered into the first hall. It was filled with tables and we took one and sat down. The table tops were covered with plates of food and jugs full of wine, water and blood. I picked up a piece of bread and began eating it then I looked over at the door were I had come through and a man entered, he was tall and muscular and the guard at the door bowed to him and let him enter. Behind the man was a woman, she looked around the same age as me and Gavner only she was slightly shorter and not a muscular. She was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen. She had long black hair and startling grey eyes, she was wearing near enough the same as the rest of us, a stitched grey jumper and black trousers.
Gavner noticed me staring and pulled me out of it. I turned to Seba and saw that he had noticed me staring as well.
"It is rude to stare Larten, especially at women."
"Sorry, who is that Seba?"
"The man is Sire Arrow, he is a Vampire Prince."
"What about the woman?"
"I am not sure, but I think she may be Sire Arrows new assistant, why do you ask."
"No reason in particular, I think I will go and introduce myself to her because she is a half vampire and so am so it would only be right to do so and I think"
I stopped speaking because I realised I was beginning to babble. I was about to get up when I saw that they were coming to our table.
Sire Arrow sat next to Seba and the woman sat next to me. I hoped she hadn't seen me staring at her. I turned to her and began talking.
"Hello, I am Larten Crepsley."
"Hello, I'm Arra Sails."
"What an unusual name."
She looked slightly offended, I was about to apologise when she began to reply.
"It's um Russian, uh where are you from?"
"I am from France."
"Oh, I couldn't tell, you don't have a very strong French accent."
I smiled in reply. It was true I did not, even Seba thought I was English because of my accent. I was about to say something else when Sire Arrow got up and beckoned to Arra to follow him.
"I better go, see you later, I hope."
"Alright then, good bye."
She walked away with a wave and a smile. I watched her walk out of the room and turned around to Seba and Gavner who were smiling hugely.
"What?" I said, I could feel myself blushing.
"Oh, nothing." Gavner replied laughing.
"Good." I said hoping he wouldn't say anything.
Seba showed us to our rooms and I lied awake in my coffin thinking about Arra Sails the beautiful woman that said she hoped we would meet again. I fell asleep smiling and thinking about her.
Please comment, thanks.
