Disclaimer: I don't own anything from Prince of Persia OR the companies that make the games, OR anything from The Legacy of Kain; OR anything from Castlevania. I added on because of the special guest appearances at the end Author's notes by Raziel and Alucard.
A/N: Hmm…didn't get too many reviews for that last chapter, but that's probably because I kept changing the rating; and when you change the rating, the story goes into a different section. But now it's back in the original one, so please read and review! Until then, good old even chapter 30 has arrived!
Ocecat: I know the deaths of Nefertari and Bob were a little disappointing, but I felt like I had to get them out of the way. The storyline is focusing on the Prince, Shahin, Roya, Arsalan, Dahaka, Fereshteh and her evil army waiting to take over the world. Anyway, thanks for the review; I find that you're my most faithful reviewer here.
Sister Chelsea: Bloodthirsty is a perfectly good word in a review for a Vampire story! Good idea for Nefertari's death, I should have put that into the story instead of the stupid cannon ball flying into her. I just thought the cannon ball bit was kind of funny. I just got the idea while I was at Starbucks and I started cracking up laughing, and all the people with their coffee were staring at me like I was crazy…OO
Resurrected
Chapter 30
(later that night)
The wind gently tossed the Prince's soft bangs about as he made his way down into the next deck. Shahin was supposed to be in a cabin somewhere on this ship where Arsalan had said his fledgling was supposedly sleeping. He'd searched the place for hours before he finally caught the scent of Shahin. Sighing with utter relief, the door to the cabin where Shahin was softly creaked open as he treaded as light as a cat over to his childe's sleeping form, smiling.
Shahin lay on his side facing Kamal, face a mask of blissful peace. His hair was now starting to look like his sire's, as it had slowly begun growing out for the past few weeks. He almost looked like a replica of the Prince.
His Vampiric parent gently laid down beside the younger Vampire, meaning to wake him but not startle him. Shahin's mouth opened for a wide yawn and his ears involuntarily perked. His eyes widened when he saw his sire and the Prince was immediately crushed by a content hug. Kamal chuckled and ruffled the fledgling's hair.
"You're back!" Shahin said happily.
"Of course." The Sire Vampire replied, lying his head down on the pillow below his head. "And I'm very tired." He murmured, and pulled his childe down with him. Shahin mumbled something incoherent, clearly wanting to get up and move around. But then a thought crossed his mind.
"When are you going to teach me to hunt?" He suddenly questioned. Kamal opened his eyes.
"I thought you didn't want to kill anybody. What's gotten into your head to make you change your mind?" He asked, surprised. "Perhaps my not being around has made you change your outlook on life."
"Don't ever say that again. I missed you! You're my sire for God's sake!" He cried, showing his fangs.
"Well," The Prince started, "Seeing how your fangs and claws have lengthened a little, I'd say…you can learn in another week or so; maybe when we reach The Isle of Hadi."
"Hadi?" Shahin asked.
"The Island on which The Temple of Rostam is located, within the Werewolf Forest." Kamal replied simply. His fledgling curled his tongue, contemplating if he'd ever heard of a werewolf before.
"What's a werewolf?" He asked his sire, looking up at the older Vampire's tired eyes.
"A werewolf is…" He remembered when he'd asked the old man with the cane right before he'd found Shahin's cold, dead body. His eyes widened for a moment and he made a small sound in his throat, with which the fledgling lying next to him questioned with a raised brow.
"Hello?" Shahin asked, bringing the Prince back to reality. Kamal hissed and shook his head, ridding his mind of the terrible memory.
"A werewolf is a human that turns into a wolf after seeing a full moon. That's all." He said, swallowing nervously as the mental image of Shahin's lifeless eyes melted away.
"You're talking about it like it's some everyday thing!" The fledgling said. The Prince nodded, sighing with relief as he erased his horrid thoughts.
"Yes, but if there are creatures such as us that drink blood and burn in holy water; then why is a werewolf so strange?" He asked, smiling. This gave Shahin a thought.
"What's your blood taste like, anyhow?" He asked his sire. Kamal laughed softly.
"I imagine it tastes like sweet copper, like any other Vampire or human's blood." He said.
"Let me taste it." Was his reply.
"Why don't you go see what Arsalan and Roya are up to, and then maybe later when I wake up I'll give you some of my blood?" The Prince asked hopefully. Shahin rolled his eyes and sighed heavily.
"I can't…'interrupt' them." He said. Kamal's brows raised.
"Oh? Why not?" He asked the fledgling. Shahin's cheeks reddened.
"Because I…I heard them…" He trailed off. He looked up at his sire's questioning eyes and bit his lip before finishing his statement.
"…Doing it."
Silence.
Kamal put a hand to his mouth, eyes shining with amusement.
Shahin crossed his arms with defiance as the Prince's shoulders began to shake as he laughed, the upward creases of his smile showing through the spaces between his fingers. The younger Vampire narrowed his eyes.
"It's not funny! That was really gross! All I did was walk by their room and started hearing moaning noises." He said. This caused his sire to laugh even harder.
"Stop it!" Shahin cried angrily and shoved the older Vampire from the bed, Kamal lying face-down and laughing loudly. He sighed, wiping bloody tears from his eyes and standing up.
"I'm sorry, Shahin."
"If I knew those two had the hots for each other then I would have steered clear of their room, dammit." The fledge said angrily.
"Arsalan…told me earlier that they had already confessed their love to each other and would need some time alone tonight."
"And you didn't tell me."
"I couldn't find your damn cabin!" Kamal chuckled. "Even with my sense of smell I couldn't determine where you were. This ship is much too big for my liking."
"I haven't been around it enough to know how big it is. And I really don't care, because now I have to worry about listening to those two lovebirds."
"Well, since you can't go out for the time being, just stay here with me and sleep some more. I'll find some dinner for us later." The Prince replied, yawning and showing off dazzling Vampire teeth. He climbed back in bed and held his childe close to him, and they dreamt off into the world of dreams.
A/N: …Boring, I know. But I couldn't think of anything else, I've had too many tests this week at school. STUPID, STUPID TAKS! Or whatever it's called…anyhow, this chapter was-
