Redemption Alaska

A 30 Days of Night Fan Fiction

Redemption Alaska, population: Four hundred and twenty one. This number stays the same for eleven months of the year. Why only eleven and not twelve? Simple There's the one time of year that the days turn to night and stay that way for thirty days. Only in Alaska does this happen. This wouldn't normally be anything to worry about except that this one time of year brings about fear, death and destruction.

The town is covered in snow and nobody has seen the bare streets in six months now. Snow storms are frequent and bring freezing temperatures with more snow piled on top of the already packed down snow from the previous storms. When the darkness comes it will make the storms worse because no one will be out to plow the streets and clear the parking lots. The snow will accumulate and drift and make getting around difficult if not impossible.

By the time the darkness has settled in, there will be screams and blood soaked snow and prayers that will go unanswered. There will be no mercy and the only chance of survival will be if you manage to outsmart, outlast and outwit. This hasn't happened even once since this whole thing began twenty some odd years ago. When the month ends and the daylight returns there will be no one left to tell the story and the horror that occurred.

Planes will come and take most of the population away from this god forsaken town. The ones who are lucky enough to have secured a seat on the departing aircrafts that will return with the rising of the sun at the end of the longest, darkest month in Redemption. The ones left behind will try and survive only to parish in the end like all the rest before them. The only other hope is that you are chosen and marked or if by some miracle of hope, you drop dead from the fear before that.

See when you become marked you become one of them and when you become one of them you become theirs. Doesn't sound too bad right? Wrong. You become a demon like them and then you kill like them. You have no love nor hope as everything you ever cared about becomes nothing more to you than a fleeting thought. The game. That is what you will love. That is what you will crave. Redemption Alaska is a playground to vicious killing vampires who know that when the darkness comes, you will be nothing but a pawn to conquer.
