A/N: Thanks to all who reviewed. Also one item should be addressed this is NOT a self insertion fic. It is merely written from Andromeda's point of view. My apologies also go to Neferti Dagger for biting her head off the way I did.
Disclaimer: All companies own their appropriate characters. Andromeda, Zander, ect. are all mine. Ask me if you want to use them.
Chapter 3: The Empire
My painful soaring came to an abrupt halt as I neared the entrance to my kingdom. It was the most beautiful sight I had seen in awhile. It' golden archways and ivory terraces made it look like something from a dream. The northern most tower was mine. It was where I lived and would continue to live until the end of time.
I was growing anxious to get inside the tower's warm comforting halls, ignoring the pain once more I opened my wings and flew up to the tower's warm main window. As soon as I got inside Nila my hand maid cornered me and made me give every reason for being late and still she was not satisfied.
"Miss"
"Yes."
"Did you win?"
"Neither in heart nor battle."
"Oh, you have a special someone eh?"
"I thought I did Nila, but I don't."
"Miss I'm sure you were to good for him anyway."
"Thank you Nila."
"Any time Miss."
"Nila, is there any work to be done?" I said as I shifted back to my usual form.
"A conference is waiting for you, and Zander is growing more impatient by the minute."
"I will get changed the go to the conference. Tell Zander I'm on my way."
"Yes Mam." She curtsied and left.
As I was getting changed I felt a presence nearby but I ignored it, as some child lose in the hall. But I didn't know how wrong I was. Finished putting on my formal robes (Zander would've had a heart attack if I didn't.) and left for the surely boring conference.
"Andromeda it's so nice to see you actually showed up."
"Zander I have no time for your sarcasm. What is the topic of this conference."
"My empress, the topic is that of Kain."
"Kain? We don't need a conference on that."
"The people demand it, and correct me if I'm wrong your motto is what the people demand is what they shall receive."
"That is correct Zander. Let us get this thing over with."
As we Walked towards the conference table Zander gave me concerned looks as if he thought something was troubling me. After it was finished he requested a word with me outside.
"What is wrong My lady?"
"A troubled mind and heart that is all."
"That's all? I sense something much worse and painful coming from you."
"That is all. I shall retire to my chambers now I need rest."
"Don't let this disturbance ruin you governing Andromeda. That would be disastrous."
After his comment I abruptly left. Heading straight for the comforts of my chambers. As I entered I sensed something again something awful. I turned around to study my chamber, and to my surprise it was filled with vampires. I leaned my weight on my left leg in a fighting stance but to no avail. There was a vampire behind me that I hadn't noticed. It grabbed me it's foul breath in my face making me wretch. The vampire proceeded to claw at me the others joined in soon not wanting to miss out on a meal. I was helpless due to my still being weak from my battle with Kain.
Out of nowhere something pushed me aside flinging me on the bed. I was not able to see the face of my rescuer due to the dim lighting and the overpowering urge to sleep.
A/N: Sorry to stop there but I have to cook dinner. Also I making a revised version of this at school I think it's much better but I think you guys should have the final say of whether I post it or not. Well review. ^_^
