One Thousand Years Ago
He ran through the halls of the castle, levitating his thrashing son. The corridors would be echoing with the sound of Siesa's screams if it were not for the silencing charm placed upon him by his father. Salazar skidded to a halt outside the girls' bathroom on the second floor. He dashed inside, his son's body floating behind him. After hurriedly hissing the password, he along with his son slid down the pipes into his hidden chamber.
Salazar levitated his son to a table and strapped him down to it. He knew he had less than 12 hours to save his only son from death. He worked diligently, mixing potions, casting spells, desperately trying to stop the flow of venom through his son's veins. He knew it was hopeless, he knew that his son was dead the moment the red lips of the vampire touched his throat. Even if the vampire didn't drink him dry, its venom reacts violently with a wizard's magical core, fighting so hard against each other until eventually it becomes too much. Wizards never survived the transformation. That didn't stop Salazar from desperately trying to save his child.
Twelve hours came and suddenly Siesa's body went limp. There was no movement, no sound of a heartbeat, no sign of consciousness. Salazar let out an anguished cry and slumped over the body of his precious baby.
The minutes ticked slowly by, Salazar was sobbing quietly against his son's body. Then he heard a voice which made him freeze.
"What is wrong Father?" The voice was beautiful, melodic, not his son's voice. Slowly he stood up and stared down at Siesa's dark forest greens eyes which were clouded in confusion.
"It worked!" Was all he managed to choke out. He stood dumbstruck, his son was alive! He survived! He managed to save him! Of course he saved him, Salazar was not one of the most powerful wizards in the world for nothing! Now if only he could remember exactly what it was he did in order for this miracle to occur.
Meanwhile, Siesa was looking around the chamber in wonder, everything was so clear! All the sounds were so loud! His father Salazar looked to be moving in slow motion. All his memories came flooding back, he realised what he had become. How was it that he survived? Siesa inhaled and the air felt wrong in his lungs, unneeded. Suddenly, he became aware of the most delicious smell ever, his throat began to burn with thirst, and he heard the rhythmic beating of his father's heart. The thirst was overpowering, the heartbeat was calling to him. Siesa stopped breathing and backed away.
Salazar, noticing his sons movement quickly cast a spell upon himself which shielded his scent. The newborn vampire relaxed immediately. He spoke,
"I am very thirsty Father, I do not want to kill humans! Is it even possible to survive without human blood?"
"I'm not sure, son," Salazar replied, studying the beautiful creature before him. "Perhaps you do not need to live off humans, what about animals? I think it is best you stay in my chamber until you are able to control yourself. We must keep this a secret. I am afraid of other's reactions when or if they find out what you are and that you have survived when others have not. Can you still use your magic?"
Siesa took his wand from his Father and levitated the table. He could still use his magic! He conjured a mirror so he could study himself. When he was human Siesa was a carbon copy of his Father, reaching a tall 6'2, silky midnight black hair with deep rich red highlights (not the horrible bright orange red, but deep blood red) which hung to his shoulders, ivory skin, extremely handsome aristocratic features, and dark forest green eyes. Now as Siesa studied himself he noticed only a few changes, his features were slightly angular, his skin was even paler than before like ice cold marble. Strangely enough, his eyes were still the dark forest green, and not the blood red he was expecting, he figured that was due to him previously being a wizard. Overall, he was breathtakingly beautiful.
Thirty years passed and Siesa (now 48 but still had the appearance of an 18year old) had still not left the chamber. He was extremely bored. His only company apart from his Father, who visited once a week to bring animals for food, was his Father's familiar, a 5foot Basilisk, who was extremely annoying and talkative. His name was Sneak, mainly because he was very sneaky, and loved to slither up behind Salazar and scream "Boo!" Salazar found this amusing every time, while Siesa just wanted to hang himself. He tried it once, it didn't work.
Siesa had one younger sister, Maria, she was fourteen when he was turned. Maria was unaware that her brother was still 'alive'. She married at 20 to a young wizard who was very proud of his heritage and liked to boast of his marriage to the great Salazar Slytherin's daughter.
Salazar himself was married to a muggle born witch named Elana, she was Siesa and Maria's mother. Salazar loved her dearly, but after the 'death' of her son, she was distraught and her eyes began to wander, seeking comfort in another's arms, Salazar reminded her too much of her son.
Eventually Salazar caught his wife cheating, and promptly divorced her. He was broken hearted, and humiliated, apparently many people had known for a while. He became angry and resentful. His son was now a vampire, they were believed to be infertile, and could not carry on the Slytherin name. His daughter married a power hungry creep, and to top it all off, his wife was unfaithful.
He went a little insane, the drama in his life too much. He blamed all his problems on the fact that his wife was muggle born, and in the last ten years of his life he refused to teach muggleborn students, he would discriminate against them. Eventually his long time friend Godric addressed the issue.
"You are not well my old friend, perhaps you should go on a vacation. I see teaching only causes you stress. It upsets the students as well. You should leave. Goodbye"
Salazar realising his friend was right, and in his haste to leave, he forgot about Siesa and Sneak who were still in the chamber. He died a few months later. His daughter's husband idolised Salazar and continued hate muggle borns and teach his children to hate muggles and so on. The rest is history
Eventually Siesa left the chamber upon finding out his father was not coming back. He told Sneak that he was going away for a long time. The Basilisk decided he wanted stay and protect the students of the school.
Siesa travelled the world (he even spent one whole year underwater living with the merpeople and feeding off fish) and found odd jobs here and there, he always kept a few precious possessions with him, including a vial of his own blood from when he was human. In his time there was no such potion as the blood replenishing potion, instead his father had taken a vial of his blood and kept it in status just in case his son was bleeding to death, there was blood to replenish with.
Six hundred years later Siesa was travelling through the mountains in the north of England where he came across the scent of another vampire. He followed the scent into some caves. There he found a man in his mid-twenties with blonde hair, lying on the floor, he looked too weak to move.
"Hello"
"Who are you?" The vampire replied. Seisa noticed his eyes were coal black, the shadows under his eyes were pronounced.
"My name is Siesa. Why do you look as though you have not fed in a long time?"
"I only just got turned a few weeks ago. I do not wish to drink human blood. I am trying to end my existence. My name is Carlisle."
"Have you thought of drinking animal blood instead? It does not taste as nice, but it is good enough. I can teach you control, I will not stay with you for too long, then you will be on your own, I prefer my own company."
Siesa ended up staying with Carlisle for 10 years. They travelled and studied together and became close friends. It was about 9 and a half years after they first met that Siesa realised he had feelings that were more than platonic for Carlisle. He tried to squash them down, but they just kept getting stronger. Eventually Siesa panicked and told Carlisle that he was leaving. He was too afraid to admit the truth. Carlisle went on with his life completely oblivious to his mentor's feelings and eventually met Edward, Esme, Rosalie and Emmett, Alice and Jasper and making his own family. Siesa was soon an old memory. They wouldn't meet again until 1983 nearly 400 years later.
