chapter 1: The nightmare begins
"This is set about 4 months before Kingdom Hearts and this is when Sora, Kairi, and Riku are 14."
It was dark that night on Destiny Islands, The sky was clear and the moon was out and street lights were shining. The shadow of a man in a dracula-like cape formed on a street light moved as if it was a life form of its' own. The shadow found and entered a house not too far from where it originated. It entered the house with no complications. In the living room there was a man in his fourties watching a horror movie while drinking a red bull. The shadow saw this and used it to its' advantage. It crept up the stairs, making no sound. It moved in the dark hallway and into a closed room where a woman of the same age slept in a large bed. The shadow rose from the floor and turned into a young, 14 year old pale skinned human male dressed in victorian clothing. The figure slowly came up to the woman and swung his cape as he appeared to be taking a bite out of her. The man heard his companion scream in the room. He dropped his red bull and raced upstairs. He arrived in the room only to gasp and see the figure's handiwork.
The next morning Sora was coming from his house nearly a block away he saw his friends with a group of people at a house that was taped off and only the police entered. He came up to Riku, and Kairi. "Sheesh, what happened?" Sora asked. Kairi answered, "A woman was murdered last night." she said, "The police told the press that the woman's husband said that he was in the living room watching TV when he heard his wife scream, ran up there, and said there was another man in the room beside him and then the perpatraitor just disappeared without a trace, except, two small holes on the lady's neck, what he said it was a "vampire"." Riku continued "The inspector in charge says that the husband may have just punched two holes in her neck using a long needle and drained her of blood, and is just saying it was a vampire, except, they haven't found any traces of blood or any needles." Riku said. That was the third murder that week. Sora was afraid for Kairi as all the victims were female of varying ages, the last victim was one year younger than Kairi. "What if this "vampire" is trying to find a bride, like it is in that Dracula story by that Bram Stoker guy, dad told me when I was five" Kairi said. The inspector came out to the crowd. "All right everyone, go home there nothing left to here, we'll get this "vampire" or whoever is responsible for these murders as quickly as we can." The inspector said.
The three went straight over to Sora' house as all the schools were closed due to the murders. They ate lunch and talked about what was going on. "I can't believe this is happening." Riku said, "That's the twelve murder, and something doesn't change, the counts gonna rise." "Yeah", Sora said, "anyone could be next." The group was there all day. Riku, and Kairi left around sundown. Kairi wanted to head hor her home without an escort. Riku disagreed with the idea but she insisted. "Your sure you can handle yourself, despite all the murders?" He asked "Yes, I'll be fine." Kairi said. She walked home in the dark with no complications but saw strange movement out of the corner of eye. She came home and put on a late night horror film. The show's announcer said what the movie was. "For tonight's late night horror we got a creepy black and white classic related to the recent murders. From 1931 we have Dracula, starring: David Manners, Helen Chandler, Edward Van Sloan, and Bela Lugosi as the infamous Vampire". The announcer said. The mayor came home but did not tell Kairi to go to bed as he knew she was old enough to stay up for a movie like that. He questioned the station's choice for a movie that was related to the murders. The movie showed the Count and his guest on the screen "Listen to them. Children of the night. What music they make.", Lugosi said on the screen in a transylvanian accent. "Listen to them. Children of the night. What music they make." Kairi copied in the same accent, giggling as she said this. Suddenly, the power went out, and the house was completely dark.
Kairi grabbed a flashlight from the coffee table in front of her and turned it on. "Sora, Riku, Dad?" Kairi said wondering if they were responsible for the outage, as it was clear that there was no storm outside. "Okay guys, you can turn the lights back on now." she said as if she thought she was falling for a cruel prank."But the darkness can do some good for some people" a young male voice said. Kairi jumped and turned in the direction of the voice. "Okay, if this is a prank, it's not funny!" Kairi yelled. She turned around and saw a similarly aged boy with black hair, pale skin, and wore victorian clothing with a red and black cape from the same era who had suddenly appeared before her. "Who said this said this was a prank" the boy said as he moved slowly towards her. "My god," Kairi said in fear, "You're the one responsible for those murders, you're...you're a vampire." He came closer to her. "Yes, and you are perfect." The vampire said, "You will be an excellent bride." Kairi began screaming for help. "HELP PLEASE! SOMEBODY HELP ME!" She continued to scream for help with no sucess. The vampire grabbed her and exposed her neck. The vampire boy removed her choker, exposing her neck, and then showed his fangs. "A brief moment of pain and you will be my bride for all eternity." He bit her neck and began to suck her blood until she was unconsious. He then cut his wrist using a shap finger nail and then dripped some of the blood down Kairi's throat. Kairi was then put on the couch by the boy and then he knew her transformation would soon begin.
