Alexandra Eclipse Potter is down right annoyed at the moment, currently spreading out her limbs on the floor listing the injury she had receive from her sire during their all out dueling. From magic, to sharp weapons with or without; anything goes as long as it's nonfatal. She was so close to besting her sire this time but a simple miscalculation had sent her across the room and ended with her sire winning.

"Enough sulking Eclipse, go clean up. Meet me in the hall for in half an hour."

"All right sire. I'll see you in a bit." Picking herself up from the floor with much grace as she could mange in her current state. Eclipse left the dueling room in light hearted and in pain but that was quick to fade away as the injuries quickly heal due to her vampire blood.

Today was one of the most important days to Eclipse. Exactly two years ago today she had meet her sire and were adopted by him today a year ago.

Flash back one year ago

Eclipse had just been kick out of the Potter manor, due to her twin Alexander Henry Potter's seventh birthday party that were held later that evening. Her god father Padfoot were busy with aurora business and had been call away earlier that afternoon, as her uncle Moody was still recovering from the pervious night due to full moon. No one would know of her absent from the party, since the Potter's ever so rarely spoke of her outside of the family and close friends, not many know of her existence as the only daughter of the current Potter bloodline. Eclipse had been blame for Alex end result of a prank that had broken an priceless vase that had belong to their grandmother, not that it couldn't bee fix by magic with a wave of wand, but never the less James had given her an harsh scolding that had lasted for two hours before sending her out the back door and told her not to return for the night.

Not too surprise that James had kick her out of the house more closely similar to the literal term on the day of her sixth day of birth, which her family had forgotten for the fourth time. Eclipse had always known that her parent had favored her twin since birth. The reasons were simple; Alex is a copy of her parent with the midnight unruly hair and tan skin of their father, the emerald green eyes of their mother. For Eclipse look like neither of her parent, her hair were that of silver curtain waves down her back, and her eyes were light shade of blue silver, with pale skin; she was an perfect example of mix race that were carry within the Potter bloodline mix with other race through out the centuries that surface every now and then.

Eclipse were deeply hurt by her father gesture, even if she had no plane to spend the day confined within her room, her friend Zane had invited her to celebrate her birthday in his home. Eclipse had quickly agreed she had met her friend Zane a year ago when he was out hunting. Eclipse remembered that day well, she had been force to leave the house that day due to another one of Alex's prank that she was blame for warn to not be seen by the guess or face dire consequence Eclipse took shelter in the woods near the manor. Eclipse didn't dare to venture far into the woods, for the danger were well know many magical race live within the woods and the non magical race were dangerous predator at night, taking shelter under her favor tree that provide shelter from mother nature and out of guest sight, but the still kept the house within her sight. Eclipse had waited for Selene her basilisk friend to return to her nest from her hunt, she pull out a large wool blanket that the house elf had made for her for such occasion she were extremely grateful to the little bouncing house elf that watch over her.

The party last late into the night Selene had yet to return from her hunt, by now the waxing crescent moon shone brightly in the night sky with the brightly shone stars. Eclipse had tried to identify as many constellations as she could remember from her reading in the Potter's library when a figure steps in front of her. She weren't afraid of the sudden intruder to her silence, the intruder presence had given her a sense of familiarity. Looking up to the figure that wear's exquisite black silk that hide a well tone body of a fighter similar to that of her god father Padfoot, finally meeting the intruder's onyx eye's they were well guarded.

The silence prolong only to be broken when the intruder realize I wouldn't be first to speak. "Why are you out in the woods so late child?"

"It's a beautiful night."

"Surely your sire and dame would be wondering where you were."

"May the night bless your hunts. Would you care to join me to enjoy this beautiful night Nightwalker?" I watch as the Nightwalker before me mask his shock expression with difficulty, though within seconds the shock expression were gone with speed that one wonder if it were ever present.

"Are you not afraid of me, child?"

"I sense no intend of harm from you, unless the laws have change Nightwalker are forbidden to drink from the unwilling. Is it not?"

"You are correct child. May I ask how you know of this information?"

Patting the spot next to me, I waited until the Nightwalker sited next to me did I pointed to the Potter manor that was within sight from the tree. "See that manor? That is the Potter manor, inside it contain a large library that collect many text that can't be found any where. One of my ancestor were Nightwalker such as your self she had kept a rather large journal in her life. I'm sorry if I had offended you in anyway but the journal didn't describe the greeting to one such as your self."

"Child, you are an enigma."

"How so? Um…"

"Zane."

"Is that how you wish for me to address you?"

"Will it be a problem?"

"No."

"You still have yet to answer my question Zane, how am I an enigma?"

My first conversation with Zane last well into the night. Even when the Potter manor's light faded, Zane had kept me company till Selene return, and drift away at dawn promising to return the next night. While too caught up in reminiscing of the past Zane had chosen that moment to stop in front of me. "May the night bless your hunts. Zane you are early the sun had just barley set over the horizon."

"Well I sense that you are out and I did ask you to join me today."

"Thank you."

"Your welcome child, all races values the day of birth of any shall all be cherish and shall not be spent alone."

"You and Selene has always kept me company for that I'm more than grateful."

In response Selene raise her head up "You are my human." Selene replied so easily as it explain all.

"Of courssse I'm your human, just as you are mine my lovely basssilissk."

"It never cease to amaze me when you interact with snakes. Never the least let us go hold on tightly." Selene hold herself more tightly around my stomach. "I will not be out done by your present to my last birthday." With that Zane drift us away from the Potter manner.

End of Flash Back

To say the party that day was extravagant was an understatement, it was much more lively than that the Potter ever through in the Potter manor and the warmth that it give was much more beyond my regeneration. Everyone was formally dress I was included, for when Zane and I arrive I was immediately lead to a spacious room that now mine. An hour of pamper by more than two women that Zane order to hauled me off and scrub me from head to toe was more or less difficult to not to relax, it was extremely embarrassing to say that I was also dress in a beautiful dark blue gown with silver trim and have my hair done in an intriguing pattern that I didn't realize I have enough hair for not noticing what was going on until Zane begun to waltzing me around a large colorful hall.

That night Zane introduce me to many people who attend to the party, on the stroke of midnight a event that I know would always be one of the happiest memory. For Zane finally confirm my suspicion that he was or the royal line, though I didn't expect for him to be the second prince of the Northern clan of vampires; added to that Zane admit that he was half a century old instead of appear like his appearance of early twenties was willing to adopt me as his daughter. A family that I had wished for was the best birthday present I could have had ever received. A rather large family not every day that you become one of royalty of one of the largest vampire clan in Europe, never the lest I never hesitated to call Zane my sire from that day forth a similar title that has been refuse to James Potter long ago.

Quickly dress I headed toward the hall I knew that sire was trying to out do my birthday present toward him five month ago in February. The party was magnificently plane by sire's family my gift to sire took me month to think of and longer time to forge a silver ring that lace with protective magic from few dangerous wizarding spell mainly use on vampire as well as shielding a vampire from their all time enemy the sunlight. Sunlight may be a hinder toward vampire in battle though that could be ignore by the coming of age, sire are consider young for his age for vampire could easily live past the century and many more depend on the power of the individual sire are by no means weak.

Finally reach to the door that sire was waiting he was dress in black silk that match his hair and eyes, slightly different style than that he usually wore, "sire?"
"Took you long enough Eclipse, come for guest await." Extending a hand toward me, leading me toward the great hall, through the door were fill with family members and noble of different race excluding few wizards.

"Sire, you have outdone your self."

"Wait till your presents."

The night past quickly as everyone dance the night away in the Casablanca castle of the northern Vampire clan. Everyone enjoy themselves on the dance floor or the variety of food on the table Zane of course found it amusing by trying to arrange a marriage for me thought that end it quickly when I caught him in the middle of a negation. Vampire and they're protectiveness are a different degree when Zane is in the factor, only series of threat were able to stop Zane for making further plans tonight.

Suddenly Zane whisk me away from my current dance partner the changes were not difficult to adapt. "Enjoying your self my dear daughter?"

"After foiling your marriage plans for me, then yes." With hint of amusement that refuse to leave my voice.
"Come now daughter is a vampire tradition to arrange marriage that can provide for their daughter or at least lessen my job of keeping those unfit out of your distance."

"Sire, you are never one for traditions what change?"

"When I happily adopt you as mine. Your blood sire and dame may not hold the same tradition or care but you are related to me to anything but blood. Though that might change too when I found your several great grandmother with vampire blood turn out to be my very distant aunt, a forgotten family that earn the disapproval of grand father and were blast off the family tree."

"So what does that make you?"

"Still your sire Eclipse, even if you are tire of me you aren't getting rid of me that easily."

"Never, I will never get tire of you sire, even if you are I'm not going away."

"Then forever then," affection were undeniable in sire voice. "Tell me then did you enjoy the party?"

"Yes I did thank you sire." Tipping my toe with the aid of the high heel shoe, and my sire reading my intention bending down his six foot frame I was able to kiss my sire cheek as show of affection. Changing position of hand to match a waltz as the music begins to sweep the hall with its beauty.

"Tell me child do you wish to begin your training early?"

"Sire aren't I all ready training with you?"

"Yes you are but I was implying your witch training."

"Are there even school that accept a child of seven to attend?"

"In Europe no, but friends of mine in other countries are willing to make a acceptation for you, I wish for you to consider it I can only teach you so much in the ways of wizards and witches and you need a life out side these wall and the walls of the Potter manners."

"What of James and Lily? They would certainly oppose the idea of me being ahead of their precious Alex."

"They had never notice of your absents; forgive me my child but they won't care of your absents."

Zane's words had hurt it reminded me just how much affection that my birth family has show me, but there could be no denying the facts that it is true. "Will there be problem without their consent?"

"No, remember that I'm your sire accepted by magic it self no creature on earth can deny that fact unless by our self willingly without outside influences."

"I'll start packing after tonight, where and which school will I be attending?"

"To start off you'll be attending school of Kazuko in Japan know for its music, culture, and potion; then I think Atlantis some where in the Bermuda Triangle know for its exotic fruits as well as some of the most powerful and oldest wards; When you finally decide to return perhaps Athena school of witches?"

"Why do I get the feeling that all three of the schools are all girls' boarding school? Also isn't it tradition that a person only attend one school?"

"You are right that all three schools are girls only boarding school and for my benefit that there are no male with in miles of the unknown location of deserted islands not even I know where there are located, and if any male tries to go in they are automatically knock unconscious isn't it grand."

The enthusiasms are unmistakable in each of Zane's words. "Sire I think you are a bit more over protective than normal but I'll still agree to attend the school, but you still have yet to answer the number of school you listed."

"Ah… well… I mention that I adopted a very talent daughter, I was looking for a school for you and some how the three head mistress made an arrangement themselves to prove which school are better, the friendly rivalry are a bit extreme some time they all friendly and they are not people that I can say no to."

"Your ex-girl friends?"

"Well no but… ok yes they are and they are very demanding and are forces to be reckon with when joining force."

"I see." With difficulty I mange to suppress my laugher that threaten to escape, Zane seem to pick up my amusement and settle with a pout.
