People said that they could teleport, move from one place to another in no time at all. That they defy the laws of Mother Nature and appear any where they wanted, just by a simple thought. This was a frightening idea for the humans, you where never safe, never! Some professors said that they simply move as a human being and there was no teleporting. The victims became paralysed with fear when one of these inhuman creators were near them, they simply got a small blackout and when they woke up – if they did, the vampire had moved to another spot. Other professors confirmed that they sure could teleport, they where undead. Just as ghosts can walk through even the thickest walls vampires are able teleport - they are supernatural.

The Mother of Vampires

Lilith, the first wife of Adam, a woman who existed prior to the creation of Eve. The story basically states that Adam and Lilith were each created from dust. Lilith's dust was dirtier than Adam's. When Adam approached her for the purpose of having sex, Lilith refused to be subservient to him, questioning why she should be made to lie beneath him. When Adam attempted to force her, she called upon the secret name of God and fled from Eden to the banks of the Red Sea. There, she mated with Satan and gave birth to demons until God sent three angels to make her return to Adam.

Lilith claimed that due to the things she had done since leaving him she could not return to Adam. The angels told her that if she did not return to Adam, she would die. Again Lilith argued, stating that she had been created immortal, a being which could not die. The angels then told Lilith that one hundred of her children would be slain for each day that she refused to return to Adam. In response, Lilith vowed to kill one unprotected child for every one of her children that was destroyed. An arrangement was reached and God created Eve for Adam while Lilith became the first vampire and slipped into the role of being Queen of the Demons, alternately seducing men and eating children.

Rahl and Celeste were on their way back to the small flat that Rahl had arranged during the last months. People in the old building had started to grow suspicious about him. This flat was on the top floor in a new neighbourhood, in another part of London. Here they could live in peace for some time before they got to move again. The good thing about the top floor was that no one questioned the fact that their curtains always were drawn.

"Oh Lord Sir... Oh My Lady!! Welcome back welcome back!" A foul creature was holding the door open to the apartment bowing so deeply his long greasy hair touched the delicate handmade Persian carpets. He was dressed in rags and his rotten stank made anyone's eyes water. The servant carefully closed and locked the door after his Master and Mistress had entered the building. Havel, a creature, not human nor vampyric. A slave with one eternal purpose, to serve his master, who once created him in to this vampyric slave destined to feast on rats and other varmints. Havel had been Rahl's servant for the past 600 years and was proud of the honour to do this obligated work.

"By Lilith's blood thirst this must be the smallest flat I have ever seen" Celeste was strolling around the three roomed apartment. Still, it was neatly arranged and the red velvet draperies with golden tufts that covered the windows were lovely.

"Of course you think" Rahl stretched out on the drawing room divan.

"Where is my clothing?" Celeste was petting the velvet curtains covering the large windows in the lounging room and remembered the ugly rags she was wearing.

"In the closet, ever did you think they where?" Celeste didn't answer the question she hurried towards her own beautiful dresses. They sure were magnificent, tailor maid in the most delicate materials in the most brilliant colours. Celeste ran her hand along the smooth fabrics just hanging there waiting for her to finally wear them again. She quickly slipped out of the old greyish cotton dress and took one of her favourites out to try it on.

A cry of frustration and disappointment reached Rahl's ear, out Celeste came in a dark purple silk dress. It had looked so nice on the earlier Celeste; now being almost 3 and a half inches shorter than before her dress didn't fit her at all. It was hanging, sacking and dragging. Rahl just laughed at her saying that she would make a wonderful scarecrow. She just spitted at him and stormed into the bedroom once more arguing about all the tailors that now had to enter their home. "Don't make a big deal out of it Celeste! It will be fine…" He yawned tiredly and watched the clock. He frankly didn't care for the dresses right now, he just passed by Celeste into the bedroom and passed out on top of the bed, the last couple of night had be exhausting no good sleep at all. Before he fell to sleep he decided at he never again would sleep on a wooden floor for three nights in a row.
