Shadows of the Night C10 – 1572

Boy, does time pass by fast. I mean, it feels as if just yesterday I was talking with Professor Black in my room. I have seen him several times since then, but about eighty or so years ago he passed on. And do I miss him so! All around me I hear of wars, kings and queens endorsing these… whatyamacallits. Expeditions. They have been going on for a good century or longer. Even when I was still a human. And my brother…. He was one of them. I have not seen him since he took off with a crew my father and mother had gathered. Just a year before we all died. And I have never thought to visit him. But surely he knew of our family's destruction. My appearance would have just terrified him.

Knock, knock, knock. I sensed the three quick raptures on my room door before I heard them. I was quite curious as to whom it could be. I have asked for no visitors during my stay here at this hotel. I stood up quickly from my place in a chair next to the oak desk where my journal that I had been writing in lay. I made my way to the door, careful to be quite as a mouse, and the knocks sounded again throughout the room as I lay my ear against the wood of the door. I heard heavy breathing and a terrible stench filled my nose through the cracks in the doorway, and I knew who was there. A hunter. A night hunter. But he would not be catching me today.

I ran to my bag, quickly putting my belongings in it and undoing the latch holding the huge window together. I looked down and around, hoping there would be no hunters around waiting for me. I heard the hunter outside my door start ramming the door in and made my jump.

As soon as I hit ground – I did not run- I blended in with the crowd. All of us nearest the hotel window looked up when we heard a roar coming from above. The hunter, dark and filled with rage, looked all around searching. I smirked to myself. He would never find me.

Two Hundred years later…..

I have just sailed from central England to the New World. Everything is chaotic here, and to the average human could be quite terrifying. But, nontheless, I am courious to see to how this new country will turn out. Every one here is fighting for their freedom…. If only they knew that they would never truly be free, for there is predators of all types in the world.

And I am one of them.

A/N;

Sorry for the short chapter and for not posting for months. My computer was taken away for no reason, then froze. And of course it got a virus/trojan thingmcbobber, and my sister took her sweet time getting it fixed, and eventually had to wipe it. The next chapter will be longer as I have just remembered what I wanted to do with this story. Thanks for hanging on with me and for reading this. R/R! pwease?
