Prologue

It was an hour till daylight and a man was jumping from rooftop to rooftop with several others in pursuit. No matter how far or fast he ran they were gaining on him. That's what prompted him to turn around and prepare to fight. That's when they appeared. A man in blue and red spandex, a woman clothed in a white suit with black stripes, a man in a black suit similar to the blue and red suit but had red lines instead of black, and a man in a green and yellow outfit with a yellow bandanna mask.

"Stay back kid," the blue and red one said, "We'll handle these guys."

"What's the plan spidey?" the one clothed in black with red lines asked.

"Kid Arachnid and Iron Fist," Spidey said, "You two will go hi. Tiger and I will go low. Now!"

"Yaah!" Tiger yelled as she leapt at an attacker while Spidey shot white rope from his wrists blinding a couple allowing Kid Arachnid to come down and touch him with red electric stuff.

"I know of these people," Iron Fist said as he punched one with a hand glowing in golden fire, "They are ninjas that fight with the Black Hand."

"The what now?" Spidey asked.

"The Black Hand," Iron Fist explained as he delivered a roundhouse kick to an incoming ninja, "They seek to destroy. They were responsible for the London Fire."

"Must've been a hot day," quipped Kid Arachnid as he jumped off of another ninja and fired white rope at another then swung him at a third ninja knocking them down.

"Tiger watch out!" Spidey yelled as a ninja snuck up behind her with a sword. Tiger, however, didn't hear him as she slashed at another ninja with one of her claws.

The man who these four came to help suddenly appeared behind her and grabbed her before disappearing in a puff of smoke.

"Make peace with your god," the man said ras he returned. He then opened his mouth revealing sharp canines and ran at the ninja. A second later the ninja's throat was in his right hand.

"Tell your masters that I am not one to trifle with," hissed the man before letting the ninja go promptly dropping him to the floor of the roof. Without a word the ninja ran away with the rest of the ninjas that were still conscious.

"You saved me," Tiger said with widened eyes as she looked at the man.

"You're a vampire!" yelled Spidey as he swung to him now that the other ninjas were running away.

"So?" the man said as he holstered his sidearm, "Have something against Vampires?"

"Who wouldn't?!" Spidey exclaimed, "Just who are you?!"

"Before I became a vampire I was known as Soron MacLeod," the man replied, "Now I'm titled as "the beast lurking in the shadows.""

"Why were the Hand chasing you?" Iron Fist inquired.

"I fed off of one of them," the man replied, "I was so thirsty all I saw was red and all I could hear was their blood pumping through their veins."

"Why did you help white Tiger?" Spidey asked.

"I always wanted to be a superhero," the man replied, "After I became a Vampire I lost any and all chances to be one. This was just me trying to feel the pleasure of saving a life."

"Did you feel it," Spidey said.

"No, I felt nothing. I would say nice to meet you," the man said, "but it's not. Thanks to you they're going to be coming back with reinforcements."

Before spidey could say anything the man vanished in a puff of black smoke.

"This is not turning out to be a good start to the day ladies and gentlemen," Spidey said as the background faded to black and white and he looked to the readers, "Vampires and evil ninjas? I have a feeling today's going to get a whole lot worse."


There will be more chapters. unsure how many more though. Will Soron the Vampire become a hero, remain neutral, or will he become a villain? We shall all find out in the future chapters.
