I had awaited for Marius to come from the meeting with the High Priestess. I waited by the doors, reading an old book of the 21st century. It was called Pandora by a woman called Anne Rice. Marius had the entire Anne Rice collection in his library. He would laugh every time he capture me with my nose into the book.
From what I was told…she was a vampire herself…
So I waited, like always, I was never impatient like the other children of the damned. I was quiet, kept to myself, unless spoken to by Marius. I am more of a body guard to Marius. He entrusted me about the business with the Pagans.
He took me under his wing when I was 15 in the year of 1993. I was an orphan and I was walking to my foster home late one night. I just got paid and I was costing my money. I had divided it in half for one half was to spend on food and clothing and the other was to go to bank for college. But as I took a turn into a dark alley to get home quicker I was ambushed by a couple of druggies.
"Give me us your money kid!"
"I don't have any!" I shouted, glaring at their dark covered faces.
One of the boys pulled my money out of my pocket then held a knife to my throat.
"No money, eh? Your going to pay-" Before the boy could spit another word he was pulled back and threw against the brick wall.
You could heard his skull crack against the wall, it was a sick sound.
The other two took out guns and threw me to the ground.
"You asshole!" One of them shouted at the figure who had killed their friend.
I managed to jump up to my feet and knocked one of the boys to the ground before he could fire. But the other saw this and fired at me. The bullet went right through the middle of my left lung.
The figure who killed the first boy, grabbed hold of the other who had shot me. He then snapped his neck as if it was a twig. The boy that I have knocked to the ground scramble to his feet and ran off into the darkness.
I laid on my back, struggling to breath and attempted to get a look of the figure. He walked over to me, bent down on one knee and lifted me up.
I growled in pain but I grinned at him.
"A bit fo-foolish for helping me sir."
I could see the figure's eyes. They were the calmest blue I had ever seen.
"Why did you stop them from shooting me, boy?" He asked, his voice was angelic and soft, but strength hidden deep within it.
"No one should take a bullet that was meant for me. They didn't pick a fight with you.." I started to cough painfully, spitting up some blood.
I motioned over to the first boy he killed, who was still holding tightly to my money.
"Take it. It's the only tha-thanks I can give you." I started to cough more, I could feel live melting away.
But Marius won't let me go so easily. He took me, made me what I am today. After I taught him about the Times I am from he then taught me about being the vampires and the cultures of long ago. When Marius made me my own Master I refuse to leave his side. I bound myself to him for all eternally to be in his debt.
So here, in the year 3899, waiting for Marius from his second meeting with the High Priestess of the Pagans. Yeah, second. The first one the High Priestess could not discuss such subjects as rebooting Earth. It's up to Master Eriol and Lady Tomoyo.
They were late to the meeting, but to them 'late' did not even existed. I stood by the door when I first saw them. Master Eriol was about my height and looked about my human age. He wore green and green silk clothing, that does not seem to come from any kingdom of the past that I can remember. His cape of the finest cloth of green and dress flew behind him, as if he was just gliding towards me. He had glasses, the frame made of wood. He seemed gentle and calm. Beside him was Lady Tomoyo. She was just as tall and she had hair as dark as the feathers of a raven. Tomoyo has bright purple eyes, that does not even seem to exist anywhere, even on vampires. She wore a gown of velvet of blue and yellow. Her blue silk cloak hung loosely over her shoulders.
The two stopped at the door and looked to me. I had shut my book, placed it quickly into my pocket, then got down on one kneed and bowed.
"Stand up, sweet child." I heard Lady Tomoyo giggle.
I stood up and kept my eyes down.
"Why do you not look at us?" Master Eriol asked.
"I am a child of the Damned. My Master always said never to look into the eyes and faces of those who are pure such as yourselves."
Lady Tomoyo walked over to me and lifted my chin so she could stare into my face.
"Your Earth name is Syaoran Li?"
If I was still living my cheek would of blushed at that moment when I looked into her beautiful eyes.
"Hai, Tomoyo-sama."
"An 21st century Japanese boy. Very rare." Master Eriol smiled.
"Will you escort me inside Syaoran-kun?" Lady Tomoyo asked sweetly.
Before I could never mention that I was forbidden into the Light Chamber my arm was taken up by Lady Tomoyo and I was lead inside along with Master Eriol
