Chapter 1: Prologue

Blade, a widely known vampire killer, was able to kill the famous Dracula or Drake as some knew him. He was able to do this by using a virus called DayStar to eliminate Dracula and almost all of the vampires in the entire United States, but things didn't go according to plan.

Two of his new partners, Abigail Whistler and Hannibal King, were able to help execute this plan, by having a scientist of theirs, Sommerfield, create the virus, but they needed Dracula's unpolluted blood to help spread the virus and kill the vampires. Like I said before, they succeeded, but only to a certain extent.

Everybody thinks that vampires who live in this day and age are old and don't know how to use a computer. Well, they are dead wrong. Like Abigail and King, they work in sleeper cells. When one goes down, another one comes up. When Danica Talos and her cell was taken down, another one went up, but what was unbeknownst to Blade and his group, was that whatever happed, was recorded and the air was filtered and the information was sent to the next cell. This was done by back up energy for her building, not enough to make the lights come on, but enough to make the cameras work and the filters work.

Within days, they were able to make an antivirus to DayStar that had already destroyed more than half the vampires in the United States. With their numbers down, and still falling when the Nightstalkers and Blade found out they made an antivirus, the vampires began a feeding frenzy and turned more than a 3 million people, innocent people at that, into blood sucking vampires. More than half of those people were parents, or older siblings. They let the younger ones go knowing they wouldn't be of much help in their small, weak state.

This is the where the story starts, while Blade, Whistler, and King were fighting the growing vampires, they didn't they were having the most unlikely of help….

Walking down the dark alleyway, where everyone nowadays knows not to go at night, was a 17 year old girl. She had tanned skinned, brown hair, and dirty, green eyes. She looked around fearfully knowing what was going to happen.

"I will not be afraid, I will not be afraid," she repeated over and over.

She walked quickly down the alley looking ahead and kept repeating the sentence over and over.

CLINK. The girl whirled around with gasp looking behind her to see many shadows being cast on the alley wall.

"Get her!" shouted a male voice.

She began to panic and took off running at a quick pace. Behind about 10 vampires followed in hot pursuit. They laughed and yelled shrilly as they continued to gain on her. She continued running, but didn't get very far, for a vampire leaped on her bringing her to the ground.

"Help me!" she screamed, "Somebody please help me!"

"No-one hears you little girl," he said smiling evilly, as he went down for the kill.

"I hear her," said another male voice.

Looking up, the vampires saw an 18 year old Native American boy. He was dressed in loose black clothes and was outfitted with all kinds of weapons.

"Well, look," said the vampire about to bite the girl, "It's the Punisher," he said poking fun of his all black clothes and assorted weapons.

"Laugh it up," said the boy, "Because it will be your last."

"Ooh," said all the vampires in unison, "What are you going to do us?" He questioned, "Call us names?"

"Actually, I was thinking more along the lines of turning you all to dust." He stated.

"You?" questioned another, "You're just a kid, and besides that, we outnumber you, 10 to 1."
"Actually, you outnumber us 10 to 2."

"Yeah," chimed the same vampire, "Who's your partner."

Just then, the girl on the ground pulled out a knife and sliced the vampire standing over her, from the groin halfway to the chest. He burst into ashes as she rolled back next to the boy.

"Me," she stated in a sweet voice.

The vampires looked at their fallen comrade, then to the partners, and busted out laughing hysterically.

"YOU?" screeched one.

"OH MY….YOU KNOW WHAT. OUR DINNER THINKS IT CAN KILL US!"

The vampires continued laughing as the pair exchanged glances.

"Well," said one calming down, "If you think you can kill us," he said getting serious, "bring it on kiddies."

The vampires began to advance on the pair and were about to reach them when the Native American boy shouted out, "Now!"
The vampire in the lead was torn in two by 3 ninja stars down the center. The vampires looked around bewildered. Following the ninja stars was an arrow that dusted the next vampire.

Behind the pair was another pair. They were both African American, one was a 17 year old boy dressed in all black, another was a 18 year old girl dressed in all black, but these two were on separate sides of the street and each one was on a dumpster giving them perfect aiming at the vampires.

"Oh, yeah, I forgot about them," stated the Native American boy.

"We can see that," a vampire as the duo started to descend from the dumpsters.

"I wasn't talking about them," he said looking back, "I was talking about them."

Before the vampires could react, a vampire in the back was dusted and behind was a girl crouched down with a sword in hand. The girl appeared to be 17 and had dirty blond hair and blue eyes, unlike the others; she wore a white shirt and regular blue jeans and shoes. Three shots rang out as a silver bullet passed through 3 vampires dusting them and a girl with a pistol joined the girl with the sword. The other girl had jet black hair and brown eyes and she wore a black dress with black tennis shoes.

Now down to 3 and surrounded, the vampires began to back into each other.

"Rory," pleaded the girl in the dress to the Native American boy, "let me kill them please."

"No!" shouted the African American boy, "Everyone has got to take one on so far tonight, but me!"

"And me!" shouted the girl.

"Duke," he said the African American boy, "You and Rain and can take them on and whoever kills the most, will get to kill first next time."

Duke grinned at Rain who smiled mockingly at him.

Duke walked towards the vampires as Rain grabbed the sword from the other girl, "Thanks, Kat," she said sweetly.

As they neared the center, one of the vampires remarked, "Nice outfit sweetie," to Tory.

"Shut up and try to kill me already," she pleaded.

The vampires grinned widely at each other and split up. Two went after Duke, while one went after Rain.

'Vampires are so sexiest,' thought Rain.

The vampire swung at Rain, but she ducked quickly and pulled the sword out slicing him through the chest and cutting off his head.

Hearing the cry of their fallen comrade, one of the vampires fighting an amused Duke raced towards Rain. Seeing he could lose at getting the first kill tomorrow night, Duke placed a few good punches on the vampire, before slinging his right hand back hard protruding 4 blades out of his glove and slicing the vampire many times dusting him.

Over on the other side, Rain threw Kat the sword and shouted, "Yo-yo!"

Kat threw her a yo-yo while catching the sword. This made the vampire stop dead in his tracks.

"A yo-yo?" he questioned, "You're gonna kill me with a fucking yo-yo?" He said snickering.

"Does she know what she is doing?" questioned the African American girl.

"Duh, Blaire," said the girl standing next to Rory, "Does she Rory?" She questioned him suddenly.

"I hope so Tory."

The vampire advanced on Rain. She placed 3 quick blows to his head, and then placed a quick kick to his stomach before pulling the yo-yo string out, wrapping it around his neck, and decapitating him.

As the ash settled, the team progressed out of the alley way with Duke's complaints echoing off the walls, "Damn it! How come she always has to win?"

About 45 miles out of the city, Abigail and King drove towards the city while having a heated argument.

"King, we don't have time to go find you're long lost niece," she complained.

"Hey, listen, I didn't know that my sister was killed when the vampires starting resurfacing okay? I am just going to find my only niece and make sure she's okay. Okay?"

Abigail sighed before talking again, "How do you even know she's alive?"

"Because…."

"Because? Because?Is that it?" shouted Abigail.

"Hey! If I had known you wanted a reasonable explanation I would have spent the last 4 hours thinking of one okay? Besides, I thought wanting to go and see you're niece, whose parents were killed by vampires, was okay."

Abigail sighed, "I guess."

"Thanks Abby," he said, "Uh, could you stop at the next pit stop I have to pee."

"Again!" she screamed.

"What? You're right, I don't know if she is alive or not and all this worrying has got me….worried."

"I'm telling you right now, if she is dead, I am so going to kill you and send you wherever, so you can drag her ass back up here okay?"
