Hey! Listen up; I've got the precursor of this story in the works now. It should be published after this story is done. The story will be about what happened to Dustil's only Made vampire(past). The one he sired to. That one should be written better than this one (sorry about the writing style in this one. I know I screwed it up.)
Rashel.
Mei got into Dustil's car after saying bye to Shelly. School had been an interesting event.
"Got a new friend?" Dustil asked with a quirky smile as Mei climbed into the seat.
"Oh Shut up." She said as she buckled her seat belt.
"Just asking. Here we go." He said pulling out of the school drive, and onto the street.
Their house was only fifteen minutes from the school. For a vampire walking though a forested area was no problem, but for a normal human girl the story was different. Mei was trying to be normal.
They pulled up to the house in silence.
Mei sighed and Dustil's head whipped in the direction of the house.
"Really?" He asked exasperated.
Mei looked at him confused. She had only sighed.
He got out of the car and was at the door in under a second. This must be serious, he never risked a neighbour seeing something unusual in them.
Mei got out cautiously and followed after Dustil.
Mei walked through the front door to meet Dustil's back.
"There you are. What have you been doing?" A voice said coming from the kitchen. Dustil relaxed immediately.
"Oi, You Gav, get out of there." Dustil said pulling a vampire from the fridge.
"Hey, it's not my fault you keep very interesting things in here." The Man called Gav said. "You know there is fuzzy green stuff in there?"
Gav looked over to Mei who was still standing in the doorway. "Ah ha. This is your little prophecy you wanted me to investigate." He approached Mei slowly. He took her chin softly and looked over her face. He had ash blonde hair with a somewhat thin face covered in short whiskers. He looked like a man out of a history book.
"I'm Gavin Duklous." He said releasing her face and shaking her hand.
"Pleasure?" She said watching him still confused. He turned away seeming bored.
"Now Dustil M'boy, You wanted me to investigate this prophecy? Well first off," Gavin looked over to Mei "Are you sure this is the prophesised vampire?"
"Yes, we are. Three witches and two vampires, not including her, can tell you that."
"Good, good." Gavin took his eyes off Mei. "Well, from what I've heard there is a group of humans that call themselves The Hunters. They've invented a device that will destroy anything with magical blood. Even if it is mildly contaminated with vampire, werewolf or witch."
"You mean a whole area? How big?" Dustil asked. He was shocked, possibly even scared.
"From what I've found out, from 200 to 500 square miles."
"That's almost the size of Rhode Island." Mei said remembering something from geography. That could wipe out a whole town or half a city.
"We have to stop them." Gavin said.
"How?" Dustil asked.
"I'd like to speak with you in private if thats alright…" Gavin said glancing over to Mei. Dustil nodded and waved her off. Mei hesitated then stood up and left, maybe she could text Shelly.
After Mei had left the room Gavin spoke. "There is only one known way of destroying it. But you won't like it."
"Oh?"
"It needs the, quote 'life force of a living vampire, and living wood."
"What does that mean?" Dustil asked sitting pretty much on the edge of his seat.
"The most powerful vampires, according to the prophecy,' Many vampires have taken this to mean blood, enough to strip life from the body, and living wood possibly attached to the body."
"Mei." Dustil said. 'Mei is going to be killed. Oh god.'
"Yes, Mei is going to have to die. It's the only way." Gavin said not sounding sad at all.
"Why wasn't Mei here?"
"I figured you'd want to tell her, or not as you see fit. After all you are her Sire." Gavin said standing up.
"I'm not."
"Huh?"
"I'm not her sire. Her sire was a young vampire that left her to the world. It was complete luck that I found her." Dustil said looking up after he was finished talking.
"Well it's still your job. She trusts you, and even possibly loves you."
"No, she doesn't." Dustil muttered.
"I wouldn't be too sure of that. She trusts you, and she's going to have to be killed. You could lave it and let her find out but I would suggest against it."
Dustil nodded and Gavin made his way to the door.
"Oh," He added "and those 'hunters' yea, there sort of killing vampires town at a time and right now they're working in Chicago."
Dustil's head snapped up. "What?"
"There planning on killing tomorrow."
Dustil pulled out his phone and dialled Karm's number. "Yep?" The voice answered
"Karm? Get out of Chicago. There are vampire hunter on the way and they have a technology that can kill vampires in a 500 km range."
"What?" Was the response.
"Get out before tonight! I owe you that much." Dustil said and he hung up the phone.
He turned back to the room and Mei was watching him her arms crossed over her chest.
"Are you going to tell me?" She asked.
"No. Not yet."
"Good because I already know." She was angry. "I'm going to die right?" Her voice softened.
Dustil's face became almost pitying.
"Don't look at me like that…" Mei begged.
"You might not have to die. You could run, we could leave now."
Mei looked down. If she backed down, and ran, then hundreds maybe thousands of vampires would die. Not to mention witches. Dustil's family.
"No, I will stay. We'll find these Hunters and kill them and destroy their device. That is if you want to help…" Mei said looking up to Dustil who looked unsure. He smiled and then gave her a running hug.
"I thought you'd say that. And I know you were thinking of my family. Face it your not the only strong telepath here and most of all I'm not letting you do this alone." He said with a chuckle into her hair.
