Chapter 3: The Third Elder…revealed

Sorrrryyyyyy I haven't updated in a while...I had the serious case of WRITERS BLOCK *dramatic music* Just to refresh your memory...this is about Selene trying to find out the hybrids' plan...and why they need Selene to awaken the mysterious remaining elder...Lucian and the pack are willing to help Selene and her partner James find this problem out and solve it...oh and btw Burt is my OC who is the evil assistant of Michael's ...I am sure that one paragraph was there...but it seemed to have erased while I was editing my previous chapter...ahh welll now ya know! WARNING: I do not own any VH or Underworld characters only my OCs Burt and James...

Selene and James stared at the lycans curiously as they loaded their guns. Lucian looked up to see the two vampires in a devious glare. Lucian knew that they didn't trust him. Besides, just a year ago their ''war'' was still taking place. Selene trailed her eyes to her gun. The thought of killing all these lycans tortured her. Not in a bad way,certainly, but a joyous desire that she would like to fufill. Her icy eyes pierced away from the lycan. Her mind was going crazy with questions. Questions that did certainly needed an answer. Why would these lycans need her guidance? What is so different about her? She was just plain Selene,the Death Dealer. The name,for some odd reason didn't give her a sense of familiarity. Who she is was the new odd question that boomed in her mind. She thought she had a family. They didn't seem like family at all...as if she belonged to another...

''Selene, You're daydreaming again..''

Selene eyes gazed quickly to James. He was leaving the camp with the others. He gave her the signal of leaving. She nodded, getting herself back together. She held her gun tight, walking behind a mixed group of vampires and lycans...

''Master,Michael?'', a small voice quivered.

Michael gave his full attention to his short assistant,Burt. He smirked seeing the nervous assistant with his hands on his back. Micheal bored his eyes into the assistant waiting for a statement.

'' We found their location. I think it is time for the secret attack. The lycans are with them...what do you suppose we do,sir?'',Burt stated. He was relieved that he wasn't on Michael's bad side. He knows what happens to people that are on his bad side...

'' Have half of the men carry bullets that rid of the bloodsuckers. The other half,silver or nitrate. How many of them are there?''

'' Umm...at least twelve of vampires...including Selene...and perhaps...an estimation of thirty- two lycans...''

'' Perfect,we have more men. We'll just scramble the amount of men with the silver or with our new experiment for our beloved bloodsuckers. They are pretty close to the mansion,and so are we...enough time for our...lets say awakening... ''

'' We have time for that,tonight?''

''Yes, the sooner the better... have any info about the third elder,Burt?''

''No sir. There are no signs of his being... We aren't so sure whether he was made from Marcus,Viktor,even his name...''

''Alright,perhaps Selene might know something...She is the only one with such a knowledge...Oh and please tell the men to attack her at first but don't rid of her, we all know that we need her... Now get ready...We have no time to waste..''

With that, Burt nodded,as he proceeded on telling orders to the group... Their secret attack was planned and ready.. Michael hopped in a Mercedes,and headed to the vampire's old hideout. He smiled seeing his troops on to work...

The group stopped again. They were exhausted from the long walk. Selene stared into space. Her mind was calm for now. The voices were something she was really concerned about. The voice was so familar to her. As if she knew it,endured it,and somewhat desired it.

The world became an utter blank around her. Her eyes seemed to focus on the moon's spotlight. She felt like dancing underneath it,feeling a nice breeze tickling her pale cheeks. The air smelled of evergreens. The night was luminscent just how she liked it. She wasn't Selene anymore,but someone else new. Her perfect teeth glistened in the darkness. Her fingertips touched the white offerings coming from the sky. A new smell gave her nostrils attention. A smell of the nice iron crimson she loved tingling in her mouth. Instead, of feeling that,she felt a pair of cold lips capture hers,like a bird trying to escape from the predator's grasp. Pulling away wasn't her interest at the time. She leaned into this foreign feeling, welcoming a wet substance. Her eyes had shut out on the world. She wanted to sink in this esscence, and never let go. Who's pair of lips were these? Why was she not letting go...?

''SELENE!''

Selene opened her eyes. Back to reality it seems. Who was shouting though? Her vision cleared to see her men being attacked. Oh crap. The hybrids attacked the whole group. Blood was not hesitiating to be spilt at this very hour. Selene got into action,as she pulled out her gun. The gunshot caught the opponents' attentions. They stood face to face to the legendary Death Dealer,herself. Her look of hatred would have ripped each of their loins bit by bit,yet someone had beaten her to it. The corpse stood before her. She rolled her eyes,angry at the fact that this wasn't her kill. She shot a glare at Lucian,as he gave her a bloody smile.

''Sorry,madame. Would you have liked that to be your kill?''. Sarcasm dreaded on every word of the lycan's unsanitary lips.

Lucian laughed,but then frowned when Selene held her gun to his face. Her eyes gave away the fact that he would probably had to move out of the way. He shut his eyes hearing the gunshot. Lucian felt himself, realising a new corpse behind him. He looked back at Selene's small smile. Lucian had a nervous chuckle as Selene left in a flurry. She didn't care the slightest mind on the blood squirting on her snowy skin. The feeling of blood just had made her stronger. The hope to rid of these intruders. The world became dark again. The sound of triumphant echoed her hollow ear... A trail of footsteps treaded on the wet road. The hybrids walked,followed by the dragging of Selene's unconcious body...

Selene smelled that same evergreen scent again. Except this time,it didn't feel real at all. She cleared her path to uncover a beastly creature. Her soft gasp startled the beast. It was dark. Dark like the shadows. She cannot see it like she can see other objects clearly. A soft growl vibrated. Her emotions are mixed and curiousity flourished upon the strong vampire. ''Who are you?'',she asks,in a hushed tone. The beast looked with eyes of the deepest serene blue. Not like hers,though. She may have been used to this...but this..this was an entirely different blue. She looked deeper,as if her answer was right there in front of her. She recognized him. Did it recognize her? When she proceeded closer, the answer just flickered out...

A cold wave of pain overcame her still body. Her eyes shot open,faster than a traveling bullet.A man with a bucket with cold water stood there with a smile. Selene looked up and saw someone else. Michael sat there peering through a car window. Wait, Michael?

''Where am I,Michael?'', Selene questioned. She sat up in the car seat. She nursed her bruised head. What in the world was she doing in here with Michael?

''We are on our way to the mansion. There is a favor we must ask of you'',Michael answered staring at the city lights.

''What favor? In the mansion?''

''You ask alot of questions... But you do have a right to know... So maybe perhaps you would be the key on awakening your elder...''

'' The elder? How am I the key to the elder?''

''You are strong. You have recieved the gift of Alexander Corvinus. We have tried other vampires,yet they didn't seem to work. We decided to try blood might be strong enough to awaken the elder.''

''Why do you need to awaken the elder in the first place? Wouldn't you want to rid of us single-breeders?''

'' You have just answered your question. Pull over, we are here,driver.''

The conversation ended as the car pulled over to the front gates. As Selene remembered,the gates were in perfect condition. Now, it seemed as if it was destroyed by a whirlwind or hurricane. Michael grabbed Selene in a rough matter. Her grunts of pain made the other hybrids laugh. James had stood there in the crowd.

''James?'',Selene whispered in fury at James wicked smile.

James was working with the hybrids. But why? Probably to find Selene quicker than she had ever imagined. The echoes of laughter boomed endlessly in her mind. She wanted to scream,and make this all go away. The feeling of defeat angered her. And Michael knew that. He knew that this warrior played no games. Not ever. He pulled her,leading her to the room. The room where the elders hibernated. That decreased to one elder hibernating. Selene realized that she has never seen the third elder with her own eyes. Maybe this could be the chance to meet him. Selene understood that's what they wanted. Perhaps,there would be a way to avoid this ,though. Another part of her told her that she shall wait and see of what's going on next. All stood in front of the third relic. The last elder remained. Resting and waiting for his reign.

'' Gentlemen,this is the moment we all have been waiting for. It is time to see with our very eyes,our strongest enemy. According to legend,the third elder was the strongest of all. His powers are immense. Not anything you can imagine. No vampire has dared to awaken him. Why,for his troublemaking. They think of him as a darker lord. The end of the modern vampire. What happens if we rid of each society? We will all find out. The one with the gift,brave and bold must give some of her blood to her elder. If this doesn't work,then what will?'',Michael announced. His grip on Selene got stronger. Her anger rose immediately. The men lifted the circle. The bed of the elder was opened before them. A mangled corpse stood in the casket.

Selene heard the voices again. Each step her and Michael took closer to the elder, was the more louder the voices became. It was louder than ever. Her mind was uneasy,even her body felt as if it were to collapse. Michael's grip came loose. Selene couldn't control herself. The crowd was in confusement,seeing Selene come closer to the body. Her breaths were heavy. Andrenaline seeped through every ounce of her veins. Her head throbbed uncontrollably. Her focus was on the body of the mind to the elder. Her very own soul to the didn't know the sightest reason why. Memories flashed through her. Pieces were thrown in here and there. The little girl who knew of the medallion of William wasn't her. It was her sister...at least that's what she called the name wasn't Selene. It didn't get too far in that topic. She had lost her memories,and seeked for help,finding a family living in barn. A man risked hr life..with the name of Gabriel? He sent her back to Earth...why? Where was she?Everything was back into the very room she was in. Only one last voice calling to her. Saying one name that had sent chills down her spine.

''Count Vladislaus Dragulia''. Selene's small words escaped her shivered lips. The world was back in its pieces. The group looked in curiousity. She repeated the name again. She was getting that name in her mind. She had heard that name before. She had remembered seeing the book where she found about Lucian's story. At the end of the book had showed the history of the Valerious's. And a name the family had hated. The legend of Vladislaus...it had to be true...

''Yes...you know the legend?'',James asked.

Selene nodded. ''He must have been the first vampire. For Marcus was bitten by a bat. Bats do not create a curse such as Count must have been the first ever vampire. And if we don't know of the third elder,then this must be the corpse of the great Count himself!It is the only solution. He was a Prince,after all''.

The others stood astounded of Selene's conclusion. She may be right. And indeed the last elder might be the notorious vampire. Michael smiled at this. He knew she had a grand knowledge. She was an awful load of help...

''Thanks for your solution,Selene. Perhaps,we may find out more if you help us out a bit here,eh?'',Michael stated pulling a knife out. Selene growled as they blade scraped against her pale wrist. The hybrids smiled. Their weapons were ready,and so were they. They watched carefully,as Selene's blood trickled down to the mouth of the mangled corpse. Selene focused on the corpse's appearence,waitng for the awakening to take place. Her eyes widened,as the bones met back with their joints. The corpse came alive before the creatures. Tonight was certainly the night for the elder's reserection. The eyelids opened to a deep serene blue. Those eyes... The body got up slowly facing away from Michael and Selene. It focused on the other shaking hybrids. The creature smiled. It's fangs shown in the whitest fashion. Muscles bulged up on the beast. The beast walked towards the hybrids. And the attack already begun.

Gunshots flared the area. Not one single bullet hit the elder. Michael stood amazed at the awakened creature. His instincts to attack increased. Selene stared in wonder. This was the vampire's first glimpse on the great elder himself. One made her flinch and prepared to strike when a voice calmed her. ''Shhhh...its just me...''. ''Lucian?''. Lucian nodded. He stood with all his men. ''What are you guys doing here? Where were you?''. ''Here. trapped. We came to help you out. What do we do with him?''. Selene didn't answer and none made a sound. They looked up to see a stranger looking straight at them.

He wiped the blood of his lips. A raven black strand hung down his pale face. Selene stared in shock seeing a handsome vampire in front of her. The lycans looked in disgust. An elder was in their mist. God,how they hated vampire elders. The vampire was about to kill,when his eyes trailed to Selene. A breath escaped her plump lips. The breathtaking man stared right at her. He saw her awe. A questioning look appeared on his face. It seemed as if they were in another atmosphere. One voice added more to this beautiful atmosphere.

''Anna?'', a lush Transylvanian accent sent Selene into a feeling of familiarity back into her troubled mind...

AN: Heyy its muah again. I hoped you liked this chapter...MOST DEFINATELY YOU HAVE! sorry I am very demanding,arent I? The third elder has been revealed! It is (drumroll) DRACULA! YAY!
