Chapter 3
The first impact caused her to black out as she hit her head. And Hermione knew no more. All this time though up in the castle at a window Alucard stood watching in fascination as he saw Hermione and watched her run away in tears and when she fell over the cliff he felt himself dissolved into mist and whisked away to the middle of the mountain side to the base of a large pine tree that when he looked up he found the woman who he had been watching the entire time with her parents lay unconscious bleeding in the arms of the pine tree.
In a blink of an eye he ran up the tree to the branches that held her in its arms and as gently as he could, scooped her into his arms and climbed down the tree. Walking over to the side of the mountain where a gate was hidden he opened the door with a thought and it revealed an elevator. Climbing inside he hit the button and it rose.
The Grangers were hysterical as were the tourists trying to see if they could see where the girl had landed. Suddenly the castle doors opened.
Everyone turned and gasped to see Alucard carrying a bleeding, cut up, unconscious Hermione Granger in his arms. Walking towards the grangers he held Hermione in his arms closely.
"I vas valking in the forests, vhen I sav her in a tree, vill you allov me to pay for her Hospital billv?"
The grangers gasped as did everyone, who seemed to know who this man was. The tour guide gasped.
"Lord Vladaris, thank you for finding our daughter?"
Jean gently pushed the hair from Hermione's face and turned just in time to see a limo drive up. Alucard walked towards it carrying Hermione in his arms then looked over at the grangers.
"If you vish for her to live, then vou should follov me now." the grangers grabbed their bags and ran to the limo and they drove off to the hospital.
~ Transylvania Republic Hospital~
The hospital room was quiet and away from the other wings. Alucard Vladria stood talking to the staff who he employed as he was the one who gave to have the hospital built.
The grangers watched as the door opened and in came many doctors. The main doctor walked over to them.
"She will be given a transplant of blood otherwise she will die." The doctor said.
Alucard snorted and they turned to him. "I can save her, but Mr. and Mrs. Granger remember what I told you, in 10 years you will lose her completely or I can make it that you forget you had a daughter, reports in your world will say you lost her when she fell from the top of Dracula's castle. It's your choice."
The Grangers looked up at Alucard and nodded as they left the room.
Alucard turned to the head doctor. "Put them to asleep while I save my new charge."
Dr. Jason Romkepher nodded his head. His great grandfather had told him of who Alucard really was and had sworn a blood oath to the man swearing to never reveal his secret and was also in charge of his records. All records pertaining to the man that the world knew as Alucard Vladaris were sealed by him and his family for the past nine centuries and it would say that way.
~5 hours later~
Hermione woke to feeling starved when she turned to get up only to smell something heavenly before her. Not caring who saw she grasped for the sweet smelling substance and drank till it was wrenched from her grasp. She sat up with a cry of anger at having her meal taken from her. That's when she noticed her surroundings. For one thing her parents were gone. And a man dressed in nice black tailored pants with a black button down cotton shirt with the first three buttons undone stood before her bed licking his wrist as she watched the two hole bite marks instantly heal as he licked up the blood from his wrist.
"I see yov arv avake nov?"
Hermione watched the man with caution as she then spoke in his native language.
"Где я?"[1]
She looked at the man as he sat down on the bed next to her.
"Вы в безопасности, и к вашему paretns, Я дал им вариант, сыпучих вам 10 лет или их воспоминания фиксированной чтобы все верим, что Ты умер на прошлой неделе, когда вы упали от моего замка."[2]
Hermione gasped as she figured out who she was talking to.
"Подождите, вы Дракула!"[3]
"Yes and I see you speak Russian I applaud you for your fluency."
Hermione smiled at the praise but then alucard watched as the smile fell.
"So my parents..?"
"they chose to let you go, I changed their memories to you dying on site at the hospital where your records are now sealed with my own. Only the head doctor Dr. Romkepher knows and as will his heir who will make a blood oath to keep our secret, well secret as their family has done so for 900 years."
Hermione looked at Alucard and sighed "so what do I call you?"
"you may call me uncle Alucard as that is my name as of right now. Do you have any questions about what you can and cannot do as you are now a damphire?"
"sunlight?"
"you can go out during the day you will just need to drink a couple bags of blood to repair the damage; I hate those stupid myths about our kind."
Hermione smirked.
"children?"
"you can still bare children, yes."
Hermione smiled at the thought of having a family.
"what can hurt me so badly that I could die?"
"Stake through the heart, garlic, churches and anything holy, all myths."
"we do however mate for life. So when you find your one true mate, you will only love him or her for the rest of your life."
"can I have children with anyone besides my mate?"
"yes but you will not feel complete without your mates child inside of you, you can cause damage to yourself and the child you carry thinking it is infection."
"if you decide to adopt you must choose to either tell them the truth or keep it a lie and watch as they grow old, get sick and die."
Hermione nodded her head and felt her stomach growl.
Alucard smirked "come dress and I shall take you hunting. I gave you only a small sample of my blood so we are now connected, I will always know where you are and if you are danger or need my help."
Hermione went to the bathroom where she took a shower and then dressed in skinny jeans and a shirt that was from the TV show Vampire Diaries and laughed at the joke. She then also saw a Tripp black trench coat laying on her bed and gothic boots at the base waiting for her. She saw she had a choice between boots or stiletto ankle boot heels. She chose her old converse that was black.
Hermione then sat down and looked at herself in the mirror and smirked. Gone was her bushy brown hair and now she had long black sleek hair. Gone were her brown eyes instead she looked at herself with violet eyes. And her olive complexion was slightly paler but she still looked like a human. The one thing about vampires was they were fair skinned. Hermione counted her blessings that she was not that pale.
Alucard looked up at the base of the stairway when he heard Hermione coming down the stairs. He turned and smirked at her. "You my dear make a beautiful damphire."
"Thanks uncle."
"One more thing before we hunt, you must change your name in the muggle world you will be known as Enoimreh Vladaris, my niece but when you return to Hogwarts you will choose either to let others know or you may keep it secret and just say you found out you were adopted…"
Hermione suddenly went ridged.
"angel what's wrong?"
"I am adopted at least by the grangers I was. Apparently I was left at the hospital the same one their daughter died in and then nurse gave me to them instead of the stillborn baby my mother gave birth to. I found out when I fell from your castle."
Alucard sighed and wrapped Hermione into his arms. "My angel I am sorry. We will just say you were my long lost daughter I had 18 years ago by one of my lovers that never told me and I just found you. Alright?"
Hermione smiled up at him and smirked
"so can I call you father instead?"
Alucard smiled and kissed her head.
"Yes, now come I am famished and I think so are you, now I will show you how you will avoid persecution, we do not drink human blood anymore, at least I do not I drink the blood of animals. You will find that the blood of animals is less tainted than that of humans. You can thank that author of twilight for that, at first I was skeptic about a vegan diet but it works."
Together they ran off laughing and talking about the many different stereo types and "ideas" of vampires the world had come up with. And so Hermione learned to hunt for animals to feed and began her training with her "Father" he taught her literature, math, science, history, and magic of the vampires. And when it was august 27th Hermione and alucard traveled to England where they went to Diagon Alley for Hermione's school supplies.
_Russian Translations:
[1] Where am I?
[2] You are safe, and as to your parents, I gave them option, loose you in ten years or have their memories fixed to make everyone believe you died last week when you fell from my castle.
[3] Wait you're Dracula?
