Chapter Two

Jack suddenly snaps out from his trance and looked down. Shock crossed his face. His lips, his beard and hands were still covered with fresh blood. There was also a body of a man lying across him. The man was dead.

W-What…? Why is there a body of a man in front of me?

He stared in shock at the body then his shock turned into confusion. His mind was blank as he continued to stare at the body, his throat was still burning in protest. He absently licked his lips as he suddenly remembered the taste of the man's blood in his mouth. He gave out a loud moan of pleasure at the taste of the remaining blood on his lips.

Damn, that tasted so bloody delicious. I still want more of it. He widens his eyes at the sudden thought of wanting more blood. W-What the fuck is happening with me? Did I do this..? Did I kill this man? Did I just think of blood?

The huge doors once again opened wide and a young man stepped into the room. He smirked as he looked at the body to Jack's bloody appearance.

"So it seems that you enjoyed your first meal, Jack." The man told the pirate who looked up at him in shock. "I know it must be shocking at first but that's how it is, especially living as a vampire."

The term 'Vampire' caught Jack's attention. He narrowed his eyes at the man before him. The man was good looking and looked like he came from an aristocrat family. But he was just wearing simple clothes. His hair was long and wavy. It was tied into a pony.

Anyway, the captain did hear a lot of stuff about the vampires who preyed humans only for their blood and their love for the night through the books he read back when he was still a child. He also knew that they are one of the five ruling powers of the supernatural world.

He narrowed his eyes again. Just who the hell is this man before him? How did he know about them? There was something unsettling about the man before him, but Jack couldn't quite put his finger on exactly what it was. It made him slightly uneasy

"So anyway young Captain Jack Sparrow, I would like to welcome you to the new life of a vampire." the man continued ignoring Jack's shocked expression and his glare.

"You're lying.." Jack retorted back with a glare. His teeth clenched. "I am not those things!"

"No Jack, I am not lying to you, but that's what you are now a vampire." The man told him as he shook his head.

"No! I refused to believe it!"

"Oh come on, Jack, you just sucked this man's blood dry a few minutes ago." Gesturing towards the dead man on the floor. "And I know you did enjoy the delicious taste of his blood. I am sure you wanted more."

Jack quickly shut his mouth at the man's words. He looked away as his face burned with shame. He's right, he just killed a man for his blood and it made him felt so horrible already from sucking the man dry and for loving every single drop of his blood. Not only that, he still wanted more! His throat burned in protest. He tried to ignore it.

"See? I know it will be horrible at first but as time goes by you will be used to it." The man continued as he gently reaching to touch Jack's chin. Jack jerked his head back, and his eyes flashed up to glare at him. Don't you dare touch me!

The man pulled his hand back and sighed. "You still have a lot of things to learn as a vampire. It also means that you need to listen to everything I say. Okay?"

Jack stood up from the floor and glared angrily "Who are you to give me orders like that?" He demanded angrily.

"Oh right introductions, how rude of me, my name is Lord Alucard Vlad Tepes and I am the King of Vampires." Alucard introduced himself with a bow. "I am also your new master and lord. I am not exactly your maker though despite I did gave you my blood to complete the vampire process."

He watched Jack's expression turn from anger to pure shock when he realized that he was talking to the king of the vampires himself. Alucard sent the pirate a smirk.

"W-Who was that fucking bastard who made me this way?" Jack asked him through gritted teeth, his hands clenched tightly into fists, the skin of his knuckles white. "A-As a vampire…" He added

"You were bitten by a rogue vampire. So you shouldn't put a blame on me." The king responded calmly to his question. He watched as the pain, anger, and hatred crossed the pirate captain's face at this revelation.

"Damn it…" Jack muttered under his breath his voice low and cold, anger growing on his features.

"It is not your fault to be bitten by one. You were just in a wrong place at the wrong time when one of them attacked. They often don't care about who they target, whether it is a child, a woman or a man that includes people from different social classes. They also don't care about them." Alucard continued his explanation to the pirate as he tried assured him gently. "They are very wild, violent, vicious, ruthless, bloodthirsty and horrible, leaving only carnage and death in their wake."

"They are nothing but trouble not only for me but also to the other leaders of the other ruling
factions. One of the reasons why we are exterminating them together with the hunters who hunt those rogues in every corner of the world. Obviously, my very own band of hunters were the ones who end up interrupting the one feeding on you before he could finish you off, causing him to run away and leave you to die on those dark roads of Tortuga."

He knew that Jack is hanging onto every word. Judging by his cold serious expression. He thought he could see a flash of rage in those brown eyes of the pirate and he could also see his hands, still clenched tightly into fists, But he continued to talk.

"My hunters were also the ones who found you bleeding and in pain, which is the part of the process of becoming a vampire on that road. Then they brought you to me...due to your current situation and since you are much safer here than on that road."

Jack just listened with rage on his handsome features. He glared at the floor, clenching and unclenching his hands. He really hates this.

"Did you know, our teeth contains venom? So once you were bitten by a vampire and not being consumed by them. It would start the transforming process of becoming a vampire. It is a very long painful and burning process that could take hours and sometimes days."

That same horrible pain I felt…that seemed to last for eternity huh.. Jack thought, wincing as he listened to Alucard with rapt attention.

It looks like he ended up in another horrible situation again. Trouble seems to follow him everywhere he goes. But this time it isn't his fault. It was that blasted rogue's fault for ruining his life. His freedom. He won't let anyone take his freedom away! The same freedom that he fought for years! His chest burns with hate and vengeance, that rogue must pay! He realized that his building hatred towards that rogue is so much worse than his hatred with Hector Barbossa, his former first mate, and friend.

The king looked at him again, he took notice of the captain's anger. He slowly approached the pirate and met his gaze. He could see the extreme loathing in his eyes. Poor Jack… This must be too much for him to bear.

"I know you want more information on your new life, you could always go to our library where all of the vamps come and go anytime they want to read and to research stuff.." He informed him calmly. "We also have a huge training room here. There is also a good chance that you will run into some my hunters there. They always train every time they have a day off. So do you have any questions?"

Jack gave him an incredulous look. Of course, I have some questions!

Alucard gave him a nod of acknowledgment to start asking questions. The pirate captain took a deep breath to control his emotions especially his rage.

"Where exactly are we? I mean this place… And what about my crew and my ship? I'm sure they are looking for me right now!" Jack started, a slight hint of panic could be heard in his voice. He just recently got his Pearl back from his mutinous first mate, Barbossa ages ago and now he will lose it because of his current situation.

"You are currently inside my castle in Transylvania, Romania. So about your crew, they are all safe and if you want I could send some of my men to tell them that you are in good hands. But don't worry, I won't tell them about your "certain situation" without your permission unless you want them to know about it. Your ship is also safe and it is still docked in Tortuga." The king responded at once.

Romania? Damn, I am too far from the Caribbean! So far away from the sea. But at least my crew is safe from those fucking rogues. The captain mused quietly as relief crossed his face. His face turned into irritation when he found out that he was so far away from the sea. He was definitely landlocked but he hoped it would be a short time. He looked at Alucard again to ask more questions.

"And what about my freedom? Who was that bastard who did this to me? And where the hell is he now?" The pirate asked with a hint of hate in his voice. His eyes flashed red with rage.

The vampire king sighed at all of his questions especially the one about his freedom. He knew Jack loves his freedom so much and it won't be easy for him to tame him. He was a pirate, after all, meant to command a ship on the open water not to stay on the land but he can't do anything about it since he is still a newborn vampire.

He also knew that Jack is extremely angry at everything that had happened to him. It looks like it will take time for him get over his anger and hatred with this.

"You still have the freedom to do what you want inside and outside the walls of my castle, however, you cannot step foot outside of the borders of my estate. For your own safety and the people that lived outside."

W-What?! The captain stared at him disbelievingly. Then he gave the king an icy glare at the idea of being landlocked for more than a month.

"Why?" He spat venomously with sneer

"You heard me, Jack, it is for your own safety and you are still a newborn vampire, meaning you are still a few hours old and your thirst for blood is overwhelmingly and very uncontrollable that makes you more ferocious, bloodthirsty, and vicious than most vampires. So you're thirsty all the time."

That quickly shuts Jack's mouth in realization that he might end up killing an innocent person inside the city nearby because of his uncontrollable thirst but he continued to glare at Alucard darkly. He crossed his arms with a huff. The king gave out a very long sigh

"You forgot about my other question. About that filthy bastard…" Jack hissed with venom.

"I haven't forgotten about it, Jack. He escaped from my hunters that night. We don't know his name yet. We are still hunting him down." Alucard explained, watching the pirate as he scowled deeply at this latest news about the bastard who bit him. "Everyone is keeping an eye out for him and the other rogues. So you shouldn't worry about it."

Jack cursed under his breath. Today is definitely not a good day for him. He just hated this. No, he really despises this very much. His life turns for the worst ever since that night he was attacked by a rogue vampire. He is no longer the same person as everyone once knew. He became less human, something he didn't ask for. It just happened so suddenly. It made him realize that he won't able to drink rum ever again. Only blood. He stared at his hands blankly. He was faintly aware that Alucard was watching him closely and patiently.

He looked up, his face mixed with different emotions. One of them was resignation. He felt so numb and caged, he doesn't want this but it seems he is not allowed to go out to the sea anymore. It made him feel so alone. He needs the sea and his Pearl around him all the time. It was the only way to keep him calm. He met the king's gaze again and he saw concern, pity, and understanding in those eyes. He hated those eyes. He hates it when people took pity on him. He doesn't need anyone's pity.

"Just take your time, Jack." He told him quietly.

Jack just remained silent then he turned his back on him, he walked towards the windows.
Alucard watched him stand there in silence. He noticed his fists clenching and unclenching. He was aware that the pirate's mind is in turmoil right now.

"How long I'll be stuck in this place?" Jack asked in a tight angry voice, still facing the windows.

"You will be here until your newborn year or your first year as a vampire is over. After when it is already over, you could always come back here anytime you want just like my other vampires. They already considered my home as a safe haven as long they are inside my borders."

Jack didn't say anything but he gritted his teeth in anger. It looks like he needed to be very patient this time. He also needs to try to survive his new life as a vampire and to plan for vengeance against the rogue who turned him. Even it means more researching and more training for him but he doesn't care about it as long he will have his revenge. He still didn't look at Alucard who decided to leave him to his thoughts. So he heard the door close behind him.

Revenge huh. The captain smiled darkly at the thought of revenge.
