Harry Shan and Darren Potter 3: Vampire Prisoner
If anyone has not read any of my previous stories, then it will be wise to tell you that this is the 3rd story of my trilogy of "Harry Shan and Darren Potter" stories. The first one is called, "Harry Shan and Darren Potter: Vampires and Wizards". The 2nd is called, "Harry Shan and Darren Potter 2: Destroying Destiny". This story will be the 3rd and last story of my trilogy of "Harry Shan and Darren Potter". If you have not read my previous 2 stories, I would love it if you would go on and read it, but you don't necessarily have to read the first two to understand this one. This story will have a different plot then the first two and as long as you understand the setting of the story and the differences between my story and the actual books themselves, then you should be good.
I have been concentrating a lot on Harry in the past two stories and it is getting kind of boring, so I will concentrate on Darren mostly in this one, but you will know who the central character will be at different times. What I am doing in this story that I have neglected to do in any of my previous ones is say at the beginning of the chapter whose POV it will be. There will be times when I will say at the beginning of the chapter "Darren's POV", or "Harry's POV". However, whatever POV it will be, it will still be in 3rd person, but it will just be revolving around a certain character depending who I choose at the time, (kind of like how "Harry Potter" is written).
The information that you need to know for this story is that it takes place 19 years after "Harry Shan and Darren Potter 2: Destroying Destiny" leaves off. Basically, everything that happens to Harry in the actual books when he becomes an adult has happened here. (For example, Harry marrying Ginny and having kids, him becoming an Auror, ect.) All that has happened to the characters at the end of the books have already happened in this story, except for the deaths. As people who read my previous 2 stories will know, I explain that the events that happen in the book have already happened in my story, but the deaths that happen in the book do not happen in my story, which is how a lot of characters (like Sirius and Dumbledore) show up, and that is how it will be in this story, but it really won't make a big affect because a lot of those characters won't show up anyway.
As for Darren, in the 19 year gap that is placed, Darren has aged about 4 years. So there will be a significant difference between him and Harry, especially since Harry is an adult. Darren is still a Prince, as are Vancha, Mika, Arrow, and Paris, (however, something will have happened to Paris as you will know when you read on). Darren has been living at Vampire Mountain doing his Prince duties. He has not seen Harry since the night Harry and he departed from Hogwarts right after Mr. Tiny died.
So without further ado, here is "Harry Shan and Darren Potter 3: Vampire Prisoner".
Darren's POV
19 years have passed since Darren has had any contact with Harry Potter or anyone from the wizarding world. How he would love to go on a trip to visit his friends, but he has not had any time. Ever since he departed from Hogwarts with Vancha, Mr. Crepsley, and Harkat, he has been up to his eyeballs with his duties as a Prince.
When he first got back to Vampire Mountain, he told his story (for what felt like the 1000th time) about his adventures with Harry. He explained everything about their quest to kill Mr. Tiny, and how they ended up killing him in the end. A lot of vampires were not happy about how Darren neglected his Princely duties to go on this quest. In fact, many vampires were ordering that Darren be sent to the Halls of Death to be executed. There was a huge uproar from the Generals and many had to be restrained, even killed, to get them off Darren's case.
After a few weeks of getting situated back, Darren started with all his jobs as a Prince. Since the war is over, the truck load of duties that overwhelmed Darren were not as big, but they were big enough that they kept him busy 24/7.
Since there was a rule that not all Princes could be at Vampire Mountain at the same time, Vancha March had offered to go out in the world exploring like how he used to do, but the other Princes requested that he wouldn't. They said that since he is a Prince, he can do whatever he wants, but since he had been absent for decades fighting, it was about time that he stayed at Vampire Mountain to rest up and complete his vampire duties there. To respect his fellow Princes, he obliged. Mika ver Leth and Arrow, instead, decided to leave Vampire Mountain and travel the world.
In the following decade, Paris, Vancha, and Darren were the Princes at Vampire Mountain. They did all sorts of things. Darren watched over a Trial of Initiation where a Vampire attempted to become a General. To make a long story short, he failed at his 1st task. Falling from The Balance Beam from 10,000 feet up certainly proves that he doesn't deserve to be a General.
After a few years, a thought came across Darren. He had been a half vampire for decades. When would it be time to become a full vampire? He asked this to Mr. Crepsley.
"When you are ready," Mr. Crepsley responded.
"What?" asked Darren. "You think I'm not ready? Let's see what I have done for the vampire clan. Hmm, I saved everyone's ass when I discovered a plot by the Vampaneze to invade Vampire Mountain, I was one of the hunter's for the War of the Scars, I killed Steve Leopard and destroyed the Vampaneze, and I destroyed the man who controls space and time itself. Not to exclude the fact that I saved your life and countless others, even after you already died!"
"And yet you still cannot use the bathroom at the bottom of the mountain," laughed Mr. Crepsley.
Darren growled.
"I'm not joking around, Mr. Crepsley."
"I know you are not. But to be a vampire, you have to have patience."
That was all Mr. Crepsley said on the subject. Darren never brought it up again; in fact, he never even thought about it until a few years later when Mr. Crepsley pulled him out of his hammock when he was taking his rare 12 hour sleep.
"Where are you taking me?" asked Darren unable to keep his eyes open.
"To the Hall of Princes," said Mr. Crepsley. "There is a situation that you need to take care of."
"Why me?" asked Darren. "Paris and Vancha both said that I can go sleep and that they will take care of things. There isn't really anything that I can do that they can't."
"Just shut up, Darren, and follow me!"
Darren walked outside the door of the Hall of Princes and pressed his hand against the monitor so as to open the doors.
The doors opened and when Darren walked inside there were a crowd full of vampires, all sitting in chairs staring up at the thrones where Paris Skyle and Vancha March were standing in position, waiting to greet Darren.
"Welcome, Darren." Paris said.
"Um, hi?" said Darren. He had no idea what was going on.
"Time to serenade you," said Vancha.
"Serenade?"
"Yes," smiled Paris.
"It's time you become a full blooded vampire…"
