I can't believe I'm back in Stokely. It was ten at night and I was standing outside of the house I grew up in. Blaxton was behind me and was with me to insure I go fully through with my plan. I knock on the door and wait for an answer. Not two minutes passed before the door opened and I saw Tommy.
"Can I help you with something?" Tommy asks me and I realized that he doesn't recognize me.
"Tommy, who's at the door?" I heard the woman I called mother for 16 years call out.
"Don't know mum. Some lady." Tommy calls back. I could hear footsteps approach. It was mum with a now four year old Hazel hiding behind mum's skirt. 'She's not my mum, she's Elsie.' I had to remind myself.
"Can I help you?" Elsie asks me.
"Hello mum. It's me. Vimka. I'm back." I say. At first nothing happened then I'm being pulled inside and being surrounded by every single member of the Pritchard family. Dozen of questions being thrown at me. Excitement bubbling on the faces of those I used to call family. I couldn't help but let a smile slip on my face as I watch them all then I remembered that I'm not like them. I'm a vampire. I forgot all about Blaxton until I heard him clear his voice and silence the whole family. My sisters began to tease me about Blaxton being my boyfriend and I pretended to get embarrass as I couldn't tell them that he is my bodyguard.
"Vimka, it is almost 5:30." Blaxton warns me. I nod in understanding. Elsie and Reuben gasp in shock at how late or early it was and ushered the young ones to bed but I stopped them. I had to do it now. I hypnotized them.
"It's been almost a year since Vimka Pritchard died. Everyone is still angust about it but slowly you have started to get better. You will continue on being your normal selves." I hypnotized my family before I send a signal all across Stokely. I sent Blaxton to search the house for the letters I sent them for the past year and a half before we left. I entered my hearse limo with Blaxton and we left Stokely just as the sun came out. My simply human life from Stokely is all but a happy memory now. To the town of Stokely, Vimka Pritchard died in a car accident almost two years ago. I made Blaxton place a headstone at the cemetery before we went to the Pritchard's.
It's time to head to Transylvania now. Time to see the council. Another two weeks of traveling and we finally reached Transylvania. Of course when I appear before the council I have to dress appropriately, like a Queen. And of course when we arrived in Transylvania is was still daytime so I had plenty of time to prepare. When it finally reached dusk, it was time to head for the council. I head to the abandoned factory and into the council room, where everyone was sitting in their assigned chairs around the council table and at the head was my throne. I took my seat. And Blaxton stood beside me.
"My Queen. We were expecting you. We assume you know of the chosen ones plan of living peacefully with breathers. What are you going to do about it?" Lord Aylwin began.
"We must do something. This can not be allowed to happen." Count Miroff added in. Soon the whole council were throwing in their opinions and it all became a blur of noise. It was annoying me.
"Quiet!" I shouted in demand as the council room became dead silent.
"I am indeed well aware of the plan Vlad has for coexistence with breathers. I believe with should give it a try. Now before any of you can object, it is the chosen ones decision and he is told to bring us to glory. Who's to say that glory isn't living peacefully with breathers." I explain to the Council. I see everyone was deep in thought and I knew I succeeded. I smiled before I began a different topic.
"Now, I came here to discuss an important topic. I will be absent for a few weeks as I will be in Lithuania to discuss with the Medininkai royals the blood shortage they have been experiencing. Until I return you are to cooperate with Vlad's peace plan." I explain to the council before I stand and leave the council room with Blaxton following behind me.
"Ugh. Blaxton when will I finally have a break from all this vampiric responsibilities and just have time for myself?" I ask as we head back to the room we rented.
"Being a vampire Queen is a daily job. I'm sure you will get some time to yourself soon, Vimka." Blaxton assured me. I smiled at him but greatly doubted it. Another two weeks of traveling and I made it too the Medininkai Castle in Lithuania. Time to discuss the blood problems. Vlad I hope you're having better luck with your plan.
