A/N: Hey, though I'd do another Incredific (that's what I call 'em). My second. Another Vi-based one too. Please Read, Review, and Enjoy
Violet stood in the rain letting it drip off her. It was a in the late afternoon, but the cloud cover made it appear to be evening. Before her was a scene of the fight she had just won. Many of the bad guy's thugs lay unconscious on the ground.
Slowly Violet started forward, stepping over guards and cronies, until she reached a door on the far side of the courtyard. She was in a castle like building, made of stone. Lord Black's 'Forbidden' Castle, or so it was called. Time seemed to have taken some of its former glory and made it rather run-down.
This was the place that the notorious Lord Black Shadower was said to keep his evil headquarters. He was just like all evil villains, obsessed with being evil so as he had to inhabit a ruin site to keep his affairs secret. Even though Violet was still able to find out a surprising amount about him, nothing would prepare her for what was going to happen when she met him.
Finally reaching the door Violet turns invisible before trying the handle. It turns smoothly and it to be found unlocked.
Cautiously she opens it and steps back. Seeing there wasn't any one there, she continued through the door, alert for any sort of movement that could indicate a bad guy. After checking all the doors in the hall she was in she reaches the other side successfully.
"Oh, come on," she thought to her self, looking around, "There's got to be more than just an outside guard."
But then a thought hits her, "Maybe he wants me to find him? … Nah"
She takes one last look around before going up a flight of stairs. This time, when she got to the last door of the corridor she found some one. But being at a visual advantage she KO'd him before he could tell what was going on.
Violet continued through the tower, getting higher and higher, knocking out the occasional guard, until she reached the top of the tower. Lord Shadower's 'Private Layer.'
She stood up from the last stair, looking around; Lord Shadower somehow was able to see invisible people. Only her force fields could help her now, and even they were not any help if she didn't see an attack coming.
"I'm impressed you made it this far," Black's voice is heard cold and heartless, "Have you been tracking me ever since I attacked Metroville?"
Violet looks around for the man, but he is still not found.
"Amazing, wasn't that, what? Two days ago. Strange you are, many supers give up by this time, or just wait for the villain to make a second appearance," suddenly a bat flies down from the ceiling and lands on a pole, startling Violet. It swings down and rests, upside-down.
"Where are you?" Violet asks still looking around, anxiously.
"Why, I'm right here," the bat leaves the pole and transforms into Lord Shadower.
"You're a shape shifter?" Violet steps back a little.
"I can turn into a bat, but that mostly all the shape shifting I can do. No much more, but that's not important. What's important is that I give you a reward for getting this place," He pauses, "You did have a hard time getting here, right?"
"Yes," Violet says with uncertainty.
"Good then you get my 'gift'."
"Gift…what?"
"Yes. Why else would I have thrown the Mayor in the lake and the Head of Police in a mud pit? Of course the fake bomb threat to the city could be a plus in the lure, but that is decidedly."
"The threat was a fake?" Violet began to get angry.
"Well, besides that, what else would lure you to my castle. Most supers would chase a man for the minor stuff that I really did. Nothing harmful." Shadower is calm and collected.
"But you said you'd blow the city up in two days if not given the secret identities of all the supers in Metroville."
"I told you, that was bait."
"So what do you really want with a super." Violet begins to settle down a bit.
"Not just a super, you, Shade," he calls her by her super name, "You're the only one I have found with such ambition, and so I must reward you with a gift of mine, that has been in need of being passed on for 'ages'."
"How do you mean?"
When Black answers his voice is layered with thrall and mesmer, and his eyes turn from blue to silver.
"Quiet girl, you are not to ask any more questions. Now close your mouth"
With that she obeys immediately, though she isn't in control of herself
Black walks over to her and tilts her head, brushing away her raven hair. Fear comes over her and she moves to stop him, but is restrained as he mesmerizes her more with his silver eyes. Slowly he brings his mouth to he neck, bringing his two fangs-like teeth into view. He bites into her, allowing the blood to flow.
All Violet could do was watch in horror as he began to drink her blood. It was then that she realized what he was. A vampire. She hadn't thought they were real. Of course there were the movie vampires, but those were the only people in make-up.
"And now," Shadower says looking up from his meal, "We start the process. First to Half-Vamp and later to full."
He takes a dagger from a nearby table and cuts himself, bringing it to Violet's mouth. Through the mesmer he makes her drink it, thus entering the last step in the vamping procedure.
"One old, and one to be…"
Black began to say as he reached into his pocket. He continued to chant something but Violet could only here bits and pieces in her lack of blood.
"…To add one, and destroy another…"
He brings a wooden steak out.
"…And keep the balance of the sides…"
"…Let it be that all be equal in creation and destruction…"
"…Now may the sacrifice be made!"
Black plunges the steak through his heart, completing the ritual. His body slowly becomes ashes, starting with the place the wood entered, and continuing outward.
Violet watched as the world spins around and fades to black.
