Descendant of a Hero

A/N: Here's the first chapter of my new story the first of 2008. I'd like to send a special thanks to Mystery writer5775 for the title it's better than mine. It's a little short but it sets the story out. This one got the highest votes so sorry if you wanted another one to win.

Ch. 1 Vlad's discovery

Vlad was very upset, Daniel had managed to end his plan and defeat him again. Vlad had decided to go to a store in Wisconsin he liked, he'd see if he could find something of interest to quell his anger.

The store just happened to be a book store; it was actually useful sometimes for things involving ghosts. This store happened to get a verity of books from other countries and some books were ancient holding information many people had put to ledged or made up.

Vlad walked into the store and was greeted by one of a rather happy employee.

"Mister Masters hello, you came in at a perfect time we just got a few boxes of books from some old library in Waukesha they tore down" the worker said with a smile. "I… I mean we know how much you like the old books and many of them were decades old their in the very back some still in boxes we haven't had time to unpack them all" he finished trying to please Mr. Masters.

"Thank you I think I'll have a look at them" Vlad said heading for the very back of the store putting up the nice act despite he was hating the man's up beat attitude.

Once Vlad had gotten to the back he saw some of the mentioned books on a few opened shelves and a few cardboard boxes lay under them open.

Vlad went to one of the boxes to look through it he pulled out a few red cover books that looked like hand written journals, no interest. Then a quick sparkle of gold on the shelf drew his attention.

On the shelf was a red leather book's spine that had gold lettering on it most of the words were covered by years of dust. Vlad pulled a handkerchief from is pocket and wiped the dust from the spine. Then his eyes went wide at what it said.

A Hero's Battle by Julia, William, Alexandra, and Marcus the 2nd Fenton.

It wasn't the title that got Vlad's attention it was the name of the authors. He pulled the book from the shelf and looked at the cover that had the title printed on the front also in gold and a symbol that looked like sign used by fortune tellers and a F design he'd seen Jack have on many of his inventions or other things he wanted people to know he owned. He turned to the first page and read the print.

'In the memory of Marcus Fenton the first, beloved husband, caring father, and unsung hero.' His story must be told so all must remember his hero's act.'

"This is going to be so interesting" Vlad said going to the next page.

A/N: So there's the first chapter what do you think I won't know to post more if you don't review? Of course I must inform you the next few chapters are all about Marcus and a lot of what he did. It takes more than on chapter to explain him and his story.
