Chapter 1

I can not believe what I have just done, what I have committed, that truly wasn't me, I just know I wouldn't do something like that, but yet I did...

I'm the oldest of my kind and as far as I know the only one of my kind which makes me a threat straight away, I didn't stand much off a chance to begin with and now I have screwed every chance I have ever had.

How did it happen... I rose from my pit like any other "day", well what you would call a day, the rise of the sun, I would walk around the town, talk to a few people then leave for my run to hunt again, what change this time.

Maybe it was the sparkling moon in the ever so dark night, I remember the moon only, fully shown, nothing holding it back, not even the darkest clouds out there, maybe something finally snapped in me, I just do not know, all I know is that I can not look back, I can never return, I must watch ever turning, because I know they will be after me, I can smell them following, they aren't far back, close enough for me to hear them breathe, maybe its a gift or its the thousands of years of solitude, alone in darkness, training myself to react to the change of smell in the air.

I had smelt the faintest scent of blood in the air turning my eyes black with rage and anger, didn't they know not to hunt so close to home, I Don't care if there my parents, they should now the rules. I ran as fast as my legs would take me to the outskirts off town and there my parents stood. Covered in blood, horrific to the human eye, but they were different also. These creatures weren't the parents I once knew, these were changed, controlled, feral..... There was a glint in the creatures eyes which I had never seen before. Two of them dressed in full black robes facing me. Now I was beginning to anger, who ever these were they had no connection to me

In a sudden flash the male had pounced towards me directed at my throat. Like a bee I delicately dodged the pounce only to be attacked by the female of the group, my own mother, I guess that she made me and in a sense could destroy me, not this time.

I broke free from the females grasp just in time before she went for my throat, the male had gone, I had to now be careful. This male wasn't my father, my father had been killed before I was born, this person was the vampire who found my mother dying in a unused grave, she was lucky to have been found so easily. The thing is the male was trained more than I could even gather. I had no chance to destroy them both.

I knew the male was near by, I could smell him in the air, I knew the distance, not even 10 miles away, he should know better than that, I had my chance now, I rapidly phased into my werewolf self, the true me, the only thing which could destroy these creatures.

As my mother went for the pounce again I wrestled her down to the floor and snapped fiercely at her neck hoping I would rip her head off leaving nothing which she could bite me with again. Missed, missed again, and again. Finally I gave up as I realised a new scent in the air. This scent was sweet, obviously human, damn I thought they cant have found us, we were to far out. As I looked across the horizon I saw a horde of humans marching towards us, I looked around and the creatures had fled yet they weren't the victims of these brutalists.

No I thought to myself I cant kill them all, there is to many, I sense a few mages as well, I have only the option to run, then here I am running through the forest, finding my escape knowing I am being pursued, luckily I was the fastest here, not long till I leave them.

Where can I go now, I need somewhere in the middle of now where, wait they will expect that, somewhere crowded which will block them sensing me, somewhere unlikely they will find me, I need to change, everyone will be after me now, I cant keep living as who I am now, he must have finally died and born new is who I now am, Zak, Elder of the werepyres, scourge of humans, the true blood, the silent assassin and many other names which I have gained over the years. These will be titles but I will now only be known as Zakius, towns person, not to well known but not some guy who is the towns loner.
