AN: This is my first story fan fiction. It has, roughly, my own story line and has my own characters. Enjoy!

I was shivering, not from the cold, from fear. It was late at night and for some reason I was standing on top of a mountain. I looked over the edge and saw a sheer drop. Nothing stood in the way until you hit the lake far below. All around me were people dressed in aristocratic clothing. There was something about them that made me tense.

A man, probably the leader, stepped forward and raised something above his head. It was an amulet in the shape of a kite with a blood red stone in its center. I noticed everyone was looking at the sky. Looking I saw the moon full and bright. A comet was passing in front of it. Once in the center a beam of light, darker than the stone, connected the amulet to the comet. A shout of joy penetrated the night. It was hard not to feel happy with them.

I looked back at the man holding the amulet and watched as a stake was shot through one of his wrists, causing him to release the amulet and the beam to disappear. The shout for joy turned to a scream of terror. A man bearing a crossbow ran from the trees. He had a grizzled beard and a crazy gleam in his eye. As he took aim to fire again a boy, probably about my age, ran in front and tried to wrestle the crossbow from the man's hands.

As the fight was taking place a little girl ran to the edge. She would've gone over had her mother not stopped her. I looked over to see what she had gone for. The amulet was falling. I didn't even see it splash when it hit the lake. The little girl started to cry and a mournful howl started up. Tears stung my eyes as I watched the grizzled man leave the group. The boy he'd been fighting was on the ground, unmoving. A around me heads were thrown back and mouths were wide open.

Rain started to come down as I saw the fangs. A sudden realization hit me as I backed up. The clearing was occupied by vampires. I felt my foot slip off the edge and I fell. As I fell I screamed. I hit something and woke up.
