Disclaimer: I do not own any characters from any of the Blade movies or comics. I only own the political leaders for the vamps.
This was the day Drake had been waiting for, he was finally going to let the political leaders of the different vampire gangs and sections of the world know that he was alive and well, thus beggining phase one of his plans. Even now the leaders were pouring in like the rain that was beating them so mercilessly outside. Drake himself was soaking wet because he had been out earlier that day looking for clothes; it shocked him at how not that many vampires knew that he could walk in daylight; anyhow it shouldn't alarm him seeing as how he had been gone for almost a millenium.
He, unlike Damaskinos and many others before him had style. The outfit that he had bought was an all leather suit much like Blade's except instead of a black trench coat he had gotten a silvery blue and gold one. He also had his sword retrieved from his old temple underneath his castle. The case itself was blue and the hilt of the sword was pure gold. He had just arrived about fifteen minutes before his guests started to arrive. He had a feeling that he was going to need his sword tonght.
"Good evening Mr. Yevteshenko", said one of Drake's many servants, as she led him to the dining room where the feast was to be held. It was just a few minutes now before the feast would begin and he would crown himself king of all vampires. Even as Drake began to make his way to his seat he saw the many astonished faces of the vampire elders as they vaguely recalled what their parents had described him as. Another thing Drake noticed was how beautiful Nyssa looked tonight with a diamond studded black dress and vicious red lipstick; he might not kill her after all.
"Hello gentlemen", said Drake and immediatetly everyone sat down and the entire room was quiet. "Thank you for coming tonight, as I'm sure you all know why you are here, for those of you who don't let me elaborate, you are here to swear your loyalty to me and me alone, I am your creator which means that I can also be your destructor". "If any of you have any objections speak now and I'll see what can be done". Nothing but total silence can be heard, except for the beating of the rain outside until one of the younger leaders finally gathered the courage to rise and ask a question that he was sure many of his other colleagues were thinking, "Why should we believe that you can run our nation, you probably aren't more capable of running the nation than Damaskinos". Everyone's eyes turned from the young man to Drake who was looking rather amused at the young mans brashness. "For one thing I am not an old fool like Damaskinos", said Drake walking towards the young man "and also I have more power than anyone in this room or on this planet so I guess that would qualify me as running the nation", and with that he took out his sword and quickly impaled him and sliced him diagonally up through his heart. "Does anyone else have any objections to me ruling the nation? Well then after the feast you will all take a blood oath to me by cutting of your hands and giving them to me, is all understood". Yes, said the leaders unanimously. "Well then let the feast begin", and with that conversations broke out as soon as Drake had sat down.
Blade sat in the balcony above the room listening to everything that was being said by Drake. It was nothing but good luck that had led him here. A couple of days before he had run into a vamp who said he knew that Drake was back and where he could be found. Naturally Blade was about to kill the man but he provided proof and took him to the exact spot of Drake's resurrection. In return for the man's life he would tell Blade where to find Drake and the most powerful vampire leaders in the world. But instead of Blade giving the man his life he just tortured the information out of him. And here Blade was right above the most powerful leaders in the world along with their creator Drake. In a few hours time he would be the only person alive in this building. But for now he would wait and listen to see if they gave any information away about any other meetings of vampires.
Drake was more pleased than in any other times in his life, well except when he was having sex but that was another story. It was now time for the leaders to make the decision to follow him or to perish. One by one the leaders cut off their hands in offering to Drake and bit by bit Drake grew happier for he knew the time was approaching when he would rule over all. Finally when the last leader was about to cut off his hand out of nowhere came a silver blade and it cleanly sliced of the vamps arm. Then from above Blade came and cut the leader in half. "Glad to be in such great company" said Blade as he looked around and took out his custom made acid edged sword ready to kill Drake where he stood. "Likewise" responded Drake as he took out his own sword signalling the others to stay back and watch.
This was working out perfectly for Drake, not only did the leaders pledged their allegiance towards Drake but now they would witness his power in defeating the Daywalker, further securing their allegiance to him. The daywalker had no idea how much he was helping him.
