Yup, I have returned. This chapter is my version of how Stefan and Vladimir met. I don't own Twilight yadah yadah yadah. Still in Vladimir's perspective.
Warnings: None. (Not yet anyway :3)
(Vladimir) Around the year 506 B.C
Vladimir stared blankly at the vampires in front of him, not bothering to get involved into their conversations and ignoring the looks some of them gave him. He just leaned against the wall with a blank look and his arms crossed in front of him. He acknowledged the whimperings of some humans in the cages on the center floor, their terrified looks did nothing to him. They thought they could over throw their vampire over lords, but all they did was give Vladimir and his coven a meal.
There's a storm on the streets but you still don't run,
"Vladidmir, come away from there! Enjoy the party," his Mother, Andrada, called to him. Her red eyes bemused to how bored her only son looked. "You'll never find a mate if you don't come and socialize."
Vladimir smirked and held up a palm. "Relax Mother," he said in a smooth voice. "I'll join in when I want to."
Andrada didn't say anything more and went back to the party, looking into the cages and pulling out a girl with matted, dirty blond hair. The girl was frightened beyond comprehension as Andrada looked her over, stroking her with long, pale nimble fingers. "Oh, I like this one. All we need to do is clean her up. She should be fun to have around, don't you all think?" Andrada asked, earning chuckles from her group.
Vladimir didn't even acknowledge the girl as she looked at him, her lips silently pleading for help. One of the other vampires called out. "Oi, Stefan! Come over here, the celebrations just begun!"
Watching and waiting for the rain to come,
Vladimir stared at the door, watching as a young vampire walked in with a pleasent look on his face. Vladimir only admitted that he looked better looking than the others. His skin was pale, as all of theirs' were, his hair was long, but oddly curly and as black as night. His eyes were red, but they had a darker tone in them, meaning that it was about time for him to feed. He smiled at his friends. "Hello Cezar," his voice was soft, but filled with authority. "I hope you all did not feast without me. You know how I enjoy feasting."
All of them snickered. Andrada beckened her son to come forward, a cold smile on her face. Vladimir sighed and got away from the wall, heading towards his coven mates. She linked her arm through his and led him closer to the others. "Stefan," she said in a clear voice. "I do not believe you've had the chance of meeting my son, Vladimir."
Stefan tilted his head as if this was the funniest thing he had ever heard. "Your son? How can that be?"
And these words wouldn't keep you dry,
Andrada laughed brightly and patted Vladimir's arm. "Vladimir is my only child. We were both turned when a vampire raided our farm," her voice darkened as she mentioned the monster who had turned them. "I killed him only a year later though."
Stefan looked a bit uncomftorable after that. "Well that's good to hear."
Andrada patted Vladimir's arm and walked away with her new 'toy'. Stefan just glanced at Vladimir from the corner of his eye, looking a bit awkward as none of them were saying anything. Vladimir crossed his arms and smirked. "Your hair is funny."
Stefan just glared irritably at it. "It's annoying," he grumbled. "I wish I could get rid of."
"Well I'm glad you can't," Vladimir said with amusement. "It's entertaining to look at."
"Well..thank you, I guess."
Or wipe tears from an open sky,
Vladimir opened the cage and drug out a man, the smirk never leaving his face. The man whimpered and tried to crawl away, but Stefan stopped him by stepping on his hand, breaking every bone in it. The man cried out and held his hand as it sagged lifelessly below. Stefan had a cocky grin on his face when he turned to Vladimir. "Would you like to share?" He asked.
"With pleasure," Vladimir replied eagerly, feeling his own thirst kick in. Both men leaned down and drained the man, listening to his shrieks of pain die away. Vladimir looked into Stefan's eyes, not looking away. Stefan did the same and neither of them spoke for a while. Vladimir reached his right hand over. "You have some blood right here," he said and wipped some of the blood of Stefan's forhead.
"Thanks," Stefan replied. "I hate it when blood gets everywhere."
"I do too."
Both men didn't say anything for a few minutes before Vladimir broke the silence. "So, what's your story?"
But I know, But I know, But I know, I'm right,
Stefan moved a strand of hair back. "Well, it was before our coven came into power," he began in an almost ruefull. "I was out in the woods, exploring a little when my creator attacked me. He must of thought I was special because he did't eat me. I don't know where he is now, but I don't care. I found a couple of other vampires and joined them, eventually forming this coven," he finished and turned to Vladimir with a bemused expression. "So, how old are you in human years?"
"Twenty-two," Vladimir replied. "And you?"
"Twenty-two, same as you it seems," Stefan answered with a grin. "Though it seems we have much in common."
"So it seems."
"STEFAN!" A voice called out. Both men turned to see a girl with glossy dark brown hair run towards them and wrap her arms around Stefan's. "Stefan, I've been looking everywhere for you!"
Stefan grinned and patted her arm. "Hello Anica," he said in a polite voice. "Well Vladimir, it seems like Anica is wanting my attention. I'll see you around." He turned and left with the other vampire, leaving Vladimir with a slightly irritated emotion. Damn maiden.
Sometime during the end of the year 1200 B.C
Vladimir stared at the remains of his covens' castle, feeling empty and shocked. His mind could not comprehend the fact that everyone was gone. His mother, Anica, Lucia, Cezar, Istoros, Dorin, Dumitru, Horriand, Andrea, Petre, the whole guard, and...Stefan. All of them were gone and they weren't ever coming back. He couldn't remember how he had gotten away and he didn't really care. What did it matter now? Where would he go anyway? He was going to be by himself for the rest of his life.
The sound of a branch being stepped on alerted him and he immediatly attacked whoever it was. Knocking the figure to the ground, he straddled him, preparing to rip off his head.
"Vladimir! Stop," a familiar voice called out. "It's me! Stefan!"
Vladimir's eyes widened and he released his hands from Stefan, staring at him. Stefan looked the same way he did, empty and shocked. Vladimir got up, holding his hand out to Stefan, who accepted it. "Stefan," he asked in almost a growl. "How did you escape?"
I won't let you drown,
Stefan looked at the remains of their castle, his eyes clouded with grief. "I don't really remember now. I was running and running, trying to block out the screams. I saw your Mother, Vladimir. She yelled for me to go find you, to make sure you were alright."
Vladimir frowned and looked up at the full moon. "Well, I'm fine. I guess she got her last wish."
Stefan put his hand into Vladimir's in a friendly gesture. "So, what now?"
Vladimir turned and faced Stefan with angry eyes. "We swear that we will avenge them."
When the waters pulling you in,
Stefan nodded and looked into Vladimir's eyes with the same intensity. "I swear that as long as I am alive, I will do whatever it takes to take the Volturi down."
I'll keep fighting, I'll keep fighting,
Vladimir nodded. "I swear that I will avenge my mother, and all the dear companions we have lost."
Stefan bit his lip and glanced at the fire in the distance. "Vladimir," he began in an almost silent voice. "Did you lose your mate?"
Vladimir snorted. "I never had one. None of the females ever interested me," he turned to Stefan. "And you?"
"I didn't have one either."
Vladimir fixed his front collar. "So I guess it's just you and me," he began. "We should get out of here, we'll be spotted."
The rain's going to follow you wherever you go,
Stefan nodded and did not say word, but followed Vladimir into the night, leaving their past life behind them.
Review guys! I pulled must of those names out of my ass and some of them were from another fanfic. I'm sorry I don't know any Dacian names. The song was called Silver lining by Hurts. A good band.
