Prologue
How does life work exactly? I've always wondered if there were a god, but if there were; why would he create a monster like me? Now, I'm not saying that I'm a monster, but people seem to believe I am. When I say people…I don't mean humans. I live in a life of vampires. They're not as bad as you think though, well, except Strigoi. They are the bad vampires that take innocent souls just for the pleasure of blood running through their system. They fear me out of their own wellbeing, even though I'm not that bad. But, they're more vampires in the world; Dhampirs and Moroi. Moroi are vampires that need protection from the Strigoi, using dhampirs as bodyguards. Royal Moroi are the worst! They treat all dhampirs like garbage. Well, not all of them, but most. I know a few Royal Moroi who mean the world to me and are selfless. It hurts that I can't see them again. You see, I'm not a human, or dhampir, or Moroi. I am the Slayer. No one, except my best friend, Ryan, knows who I am, or they could turn me in and kill me. When I was 15, I got raped by my boyfriend of one year. I wanted to wait so it could be special for both of us, but I found out he had been sleeping around behind my back. So, naturally, I confronted him about it, when he was drunk. Big mistake! I didn't realise until then that he was an angry drunk, otherwise I would have waited until he was sober.
So I got raped, woke up in a bush, and got kidnapped by Strigoi who were just outside the wards (an invisible gate that keeps out Strigoi and are made up of four elements; fire, earth, water and air). I woke up, yet again, in some old dingy basement with five of my school friends; Ella, Lilly, Jackson and Tanner. Lilly was my best-friend at the time, but I'll get to that later. So anyway, back to the story, the Strigoi who held us captive were threatening us, mostly Lilly because she is one of the last three Dragimor's (a royal family) to be alive, and I got pissed and started talking back and yelling at them. They knocked me out and I woke up all alone. My 'friends' had left me in the basement while they escaped. A Strigoi was taunting me, so I injured him with a knife I always carry around with me, while it didn't kill him, it did knock him down for a few minutes.
It could have saved my life, but there were other Strigoi coming for me, so I got trapped and accepted my death. One had me by the neck while others were just telling me how they were going to kill everyone I ever loved. That really ticked me off, and I'm guessing it unleashed something in my body, because next thing I know, I'm lighting those fuckers on fire, with my hands. I killed around fifty Strigoi that day, and when I was finished, I realised 'hey, I could do this for a living'. So I wrote on this mirror, with Strigoi blood 'we've got the youngest Hathaway, if she's anything like her mother, she will be the greatest blood-whore we've ever had'. I know, it's rough, but people would think a Strigoi wrote that, right? At that moment in time, I could hear guardians coming a mile away. I had no idea how I could hear them, but I didn't hesitate to get out of there. A few days later, I started killing Strigoi, and started feeding off of them. Their blood gave me the energy I needed to survive. A few months after that, I met Ryan Blake, my best friend. He was running away from Court, the Moroi and Dhampir headquarters. He hated his family and what the royals were doing, so he left and now is on the run from them all. I agreed to help him if he could teach me a few moves. He originally came from Japan, therefore pressuring himself of being the best in his class and the best guardian I've ever seen. He was also the smartest guardian that ever graduated, so he taught me everything he knows. He's a few years older than me, but acts like a four year old. I learnt new techniques, and he pushed me until I was better than him. Now, I kill Strigoi without a sweat.
Now, I need to head back to my old school, St. Vladimirs Academy, and return to my old life because there is an attack coming. No matter how much I despise most of the people there, I'm really looking forward to seeing my mom, Rose Hathaway, and my twin brother, Alik (meaning 'defender' in Russian) again, and maybe even a few of my old friends, who didn't leave me. I can't say I miss my dad, because I've never met him. He left my mom after they slept together, and a few weeks later she found out she was having us. All I know from my father is, he was a kickass guardian, smart and was Russian. Let's just hope going back to my past is a good choice to make…
Please review and tell me if I should continue
