DISCLAIMER: I do NOT own the Darren Shan sagas!!! Although it would be
great if I did...
WARNING: I am going to rate every single chapter in the beginning, so not every chapter will be rate PG-13. Don't worry though, because this chapter is only rated G.
Okay, this book takes off from the sixth book. Oh, this is my first fic, so be easy on me and please, NO FLAMES. Now let's begin the story... ............................................................................ .................................................................. I woke up staring at the bare, rocky ceiling of my cell. As I sat up from my hammock, rubbing the sleep out of my eyes, I realized something. I was now a Vampire Prince! Oh yeah! I was about to start dancing and whooping with heaps of joy, when I saw that Harkat Mulds was still sleeping in his hammock.
Most people couldn't tell if he was sleeping or not, because he had no eyelids or lashes, but after the month of being cellmates, I could tell. If he was asleep, his huge, round, green eyes would dim.
Then suddenly, Vanez Blane came in and gave me a slap on the back (Vanez's senses have gotten so good now, that you wouldn't know that he was blind if he had his sunglasses on) and said, "Congrats, Darren! I know you'll make a terrific prince! Now let's get something to eat! I'm starved!"
Well, so much for not waking up Harkat.
Harkat sat up and tried to shake away his sleepiness. "What???" he said at first, confused. Then after fully waking up, he hopped out of his hammock and put on a grin. "I just remembered. You're a...Vampire Prince Darren! I can't...believe it."
I grinned right back. "Neither can I."
"So are we going to eat or not? I have a craving for some bat broth today," whined Vanez.
"Yeah, me too. Let's go," I said, finally noticing my empty stomach.
As we made our way through the tunnels of Vampire Mountain to the Hall of Khledon Lurt, several vampires stopped to say words of happiness and approval to me. When we got to the Hall of Khledon Lurt, we found that Seba and Mr. Crepsley were already there waiting for us.
The moment Mr. Crepsley saw us coming, he stood up and, nodding his head in acknowledgment to each of us, said, "Hello Vanez, Darren, Harkat."
"Hello, Larten," Vanez said right back.
"Hello," Harkat said, lifting up the mask covering his mouth so that he could be heard.
"Hello to you too, Larten," I said teasingly, using his first name as if I was the one in with a higher place in the vampire hierarchy, which, technically I was, yet was not. It was very confusing.
Mr. Crepsley gave me a look before saying, "Just because you're my Prince, and I have to obey you, doesn't mean that I'm still your mentor, and I expect to be treated with the same respect as one."
"Yes, yes." I sighed.
After we all sat down, we had some bat broth with stale bread and a mug of blood, wine, and water. It was very ironic: I used to want to puke at the sight of bat broth, but now I have come to like it.
"You know," Seba said, scooping up the last of his bat broth with his stale bread, "There is a half-vampire that was blooded, and she's just about your age, Darren."
"She?" everyone asked in surprise. There were very, very few female vampires, and even fewer vampires my age. Vampires didn't like to blood the young.
"Yes, she as in-" Seba was about to explain again, but I cut him short.
"We know what you mean by that, but whoa, is this unusual."
"I agree with Darren, this is very rare and astounding." Mr Crepsley agreed.
"What's her name?" I asked.
"Her name is Eve. She was blooded a month ago by Harst Palms. I just received word of this this very morning. I think she's coming for a late trial."
"When is she going to be here?" Harkat asked, interested.
"Judging by the Stone of Blood, I would say tomorrow."
"That's soon." Mr. Crepsley thought out loud.
"Yes, well, at least Darren will have someone his age to talk to." Vanez noticed.
"Yeah, that's good." I agreed.
"Oh, Darren," Mr. Crepsley said. "You have to go to the Hall of Princes right away. They need you to help with the growing threat of the Vampaneze Lord."
"Okay." I said. This was going to be my first official day as a Vampire Prince! I couldn't wait to see how pretty much the rest of my life was going to be like. "Okay you guys, see you later." I waved to Seba, Vanez, and Harkat, and then followed Mr. Crepsley to the Hall of Princes.
.......................................
I flopped onto my hammock and was about to go straight to sleep when Harkat noticed me. "How was it?" he asked. "Oh my gosh, it was so tiring." I answered. "There were vampire generals everywhere, reporting of their battles with the vampaneze and where they were last sighted. The princes decided that Paris and I would be the committee that would deal with all of this. So now I'm going to have to revise and edit maps all day while listening to a bunch of generals reporting their encounters with our cousins. The maps are for the location of the..." I stopped to yawn. "...the vampaneze." "Well, I'll let you get your...sleep. At least you can...look forward to meeting...Eve tomorrow." "Yeah...yeah..." I said sleepily. And with that, I floated off into darkness... ............................................................................ ..................................................................ing the button below! ke it.
So how'd you like it? I hope it wasn't too bad. Eve is going to come in the next chapter, as you can probably tell by the ending. Please do me a favor by leaving me your comments and suggestions by clicking the button below!
