Chapter 1

Vladislaus Dragulia

August 12, 1422 Trannsylvania

Trannslyvania was dark these days. Invaders took over and the gypsies were put low in class. Each have failed to fight back, but one stayed strong. Valerious the Elder overlooked the new Trannsylvania. Life was different here now. It was a nightmare you couldn't wake up from. The new rulers were foolish. They betrayed the trust of God. Still, Valerious the Elder stood as a king to his people. The gypsies. Creatures also crept in the dark woods of Trannslyvania, but no one once settled there. Cowards. All of them. Valerious the Elder himself walked there. That's how he became of the first unknown species of the world. A hybrid. Vampire/ Lycan. The first of his kind. He has hunted them for years, just to protect his people. To protect Trannsylvania. He vowed to never pass down his disease. When he found out that his wife was to give birth to a second child, he worried. He was lucky that his first born didn't carry the disease. Now, he worried for the second. His wife was due today. To give birth to his second child. Something he has been not wanting to happen. May a miracle happen for him. Valerious the Elder waited for this to event to happen. If the child carries the disease, he must do the unthinkable. Death echoed in his mind. As Valerious the Elder thought of this, he felt a tug on his pants. He looked down to see his five year old son waiting for his attention. '' What is it son?'', asked the discouraged father. The boy let go of his father's pants and said,'' Do you think I will have a baby brother or sister?''. Valerious the Elder smiled at his son. Slowly, he picked him up. He kissed his son's forehead, holding him tightly. '' Whatever comes to happen, my son. We will see, we will see.'', Valerious the Elder replied as he stroked his son's hair. The peaceful moment was interrupted ,when a young girl walked in with a smile. '' Your Majesty, the child has been born!'', the young girl exclaimed in excitement. Valerious the Elder gently put his son down and followed the young woman to where his wife was. He saw his wife there cradling the baby with her arms. His wife looked up and said ,'' It's a boy, my husband. Come see him.''. Valerious the Elder sat on the bed where his wife was laying. The baby's eyes remained closed. Sleeping in peace. '' Leave us, and take Demetri with you. I would like to be alone with my wife and new child'', Valerious the Elder said to the young woman at the doorway. She nodded and left the room with Demetri ( Valerious the Elder's son) . The parents of the new child looked down at the baby in awe. The baby was tiny, but was as handsome as a cupid. '' Do you feel any creature running through these child's veins?'', Valerious the Elder's wife asked. Valerious the Elder studied the child. He sensed no creature in the baby's veins. He smiled. Thank God the child had not carried the disease. '' No, the child is cleaned. I feel that he would be bold and strong though.'', the husband replied. His wife grinned. They hugged each other. They were surely glad that the child wasn't a monster. Suddenly, his wife let go. '' What is the matter?'', the husband asked. His wife felt unstabled. Then, she collasped on the bed. Valerious the Elder stood in shock. '' Desiree! Desiree! Wake up! Wake up!'', Valerious the Elder shouted, tapping and shoving Desiree's shoulder. His wife wouldn't get up. '' HELP! SOMEBODY HELP!'', the unsteady husband yelled. The door opened in a flash. The doctors ran into the room. Valerious the Elder was panicking. What happened to his wife? ''Is she dead?'', Valerious the Elder asked in bewilderment. The doctors kept checking Desiree's pulse. They tried so hard to keep her alive. Yet death bloomed on her. ''Yes. We are very sorry. She lost too much blood from giving birth'', one doctor replied. Valerious the Elder then stood quiet. The doctors left the room,taking Desiree's body with them. He couldn't believe it. His wife has died giving birth to a child that he thought was going to carry his disease. His cries can be heard in all of Trannsylvania. He knew it wasn't the child's fault that his wife lost blood giving birth to it. The baby slept soundly not hearing anything that has happened. Since the child was so brave, like a dragon, he named the child, Vladislaus Dragulia Valerious. Valerious the Elder recovered from that night,and moved on. One day, an elder gypsy came to check on the future of his new son. The news was not as expected. The gypsy's eyes grew wide in horror. ''Balsphemy! This child is no miracle! You named it after dragon, when it should be devil! One day, the child will become weak and will make a deal with the evil itself! Get rid of it! Of this evil!'' the old gypsy woman bellowed pointing at the babe like itis garbage. Valerious couldn't believe a word she said and sent her out. What if what the gypsy says came true??

Alexandria Valerious

Valerious the Elder walked about in the hidden place of The Gypsies. He was wondering about what the treacherous rulers beyond this hidden place were doing to the poor peasants. He decided to visit the village of Vaseria to get some meals for the gypsies since they are all poor and starving. He must not blow his cover and pretend like he his the other villagers of Vaseria. Slowly, he crept from the hidden passages into the crowded village. Everything was calm. Too calm. He walked the streets, making sure no one noticed who he really was. Suddenly he came upon a building with a name of Orphanage. Valerious the Elder realised that nobody went inside. Feeling bad with the decreasing of the bulding's visits, he decided to come in. Inside was dark and gloomy. He looked at the strange walls and furnitures of the building. Then, he heard a voice. '' Can I help you?'', a voice questioned creepily. Valerious the Elder flinched at the voice, and turned around to see a short man with groogy teeth. '' I am here to see if you have any children that I am interested in adopting'', Valerious the Elder said. He truely was there for that also. He knew that there had to be plenty of orphans that needed a home. The short man smiled, his balck teeth showing disgustingly. '' Come this way'', the short man said. Valerious the Elder followed the eerie man looking into the supposedly ''rooms''. The rooms were prison bars. What kind of orphanage is this? All of the employees were scary. Valerious the Elder knew something was up. '' May I go in here?'', Valerious the Elder asked. The short man nodded. He walked in the room and saw a baby on the ground. Why would they put some poor baby on the ground? '' Excuse me, but how old is this baby?'', he questioned. ''Just born yesterday, why?'', the short man replied. '' You are letting a poor child starve. On top of that, you are leaving it on the floor. Who are you people?'', Valerious the Elder asked curiously. The short man gave that creepy smile again, snapped his fingers, and dozens of men came in. Suddenly, they all turned to werewolves leaping for Valerious the Elder, but he dodged them all. '' So, let me guess.....werewolves,huh? Disguised as the orphanage employees...how interesting..I bet you kill these children afterwards.'', Valerious the Elder said smartly. The werewolves snarled and kept their attack mode intact. Blood went everywhere. The fight was on. Valerious the Elder then took a pistol out, just in time to rid of the creatures. Finally, they were all down. He arm was filled with scratches. None were effecting him. He already was a hybrid. He looked down at the baby. Then, gasped. His blood was spilt on it. '' Oh no'', Valerious the Elder murmured to himself. The blood went into the baby's veins. Valerious the Elder stood silent. The baby just still slept. He picked it up, and walked out of the building. Valerious the Elder took the babe to the elder gypsy. He knew she wasn't pleased about not getting rid of his second born, but he really needs help with this problem. He didn't want this poor child to have his blood in its veins. ''What are you here for now? You didn't do what I asked for your second born.'' the old woman stated the Elder handed the baby to the gypsy. The woman studied the baby. '' Your blood has gone inside this baby's veins, but the blood mingled together and made something unimaginable. Look at the child's arm'',the woman replied. Valerious the Elder looked at the baby's arm to see a tattoo form on it. It was just like his, except that the ''V'' in the tattoo was colored in.'' That's strange'', Valerious the Elder said. The woman nodded and said, '' And you know what this means? The Unity has been born''. Valerious the Elder was in shock. '' The Unity? I thought that was just a legend told for centuries...'', he replied. The old woman shook her head.''Nothing is always what it seems, Frederick. I think you should keep the child as your own. Raise the babe to be strong. The Unity shall protect us all. Don't tell anybody about this secret. Not even your children. It's between you and this child. By the way, it's a girl'', the woman said. Frederick Valerious nodded. He took the girl to be is own child. He called her Alexandria, which means ''purity,reuntion of life'' in Romanian. She was to be the Unity, and soon the treachery of Trannsylvania will end
