Prologue
Back in the time when vampires, witches, and monsters ruled, there were no places for humans to hide. Mortals were the only organisms considered different; less civilized. And during the night it became worse for them. Now the night taunted the creatures. For it had once been a safe time for them; that was before the rebellion. A long time ago, when night creatures ruled with an iron fist. Back when they were unbeatable…
That was also back before the time of the chosen one, when the creatures tortured the humans, fed off of them, made them their slaves. Prophecies foretold that only he could put to rest the monarchy that had kept humans powerless for so long.
And he did, killing their leader in the process. The death of one of the once known 'indestuctables' arose a hope among the humans. If one tiny, mere mortal could destroy one of the night people, then they could kill them as well.
The battle lasted many years and, by the end, there were many casualties and many deaths leaving both kind nearly to extinction. It was then that the remaining night creatures retreated, taking all surviving members into the dark depths of the mystical forest. All except for one. She stayed and quickly disposed of the chosen one. Before the humans had time to react, she raced quickly into the safety of the woods. She then began to rebuild the night creatures, hoping that one day they would be strong enough to overcome the humans once again.
The people, in mourning over their fallen hero, vowed never to let those beastly creatures inhabit the world again…that was four hundred years ago today.
Today the night creatures live among the people, hidden, it's the only way to ensure their survival. But to do that, they must have rules. The rules merely state that any and every night creature must: keep their secret identity, not upset the now invisible balance formed between the creatures and the humans, and no relationships with any non-night creature.
If even one of these rules is broken, the perpetrator will be disposed of. But sometimes, even the most strict and followed rules get broken…
What'd you think? This was my first story and I've been working on it for a while so I'm hoping it sounds ok. Please read and review and let me know what you think. I should try to have chapter one posted sometime before Friday. Review!!!!
