ZILLAFAN Ah see you have to explain those things my friend otherwise I will not get what you mean but I get the reference to the Tyrant now. Random Guest I see what your saying. Now I will update another story soon or I may post a new one just to add a change of pace and it is a story about Magnus so my question to you guys is can you guess what version of Magnus that will come up? Let me know your thoughts. Anyway I will see you all later.
It had been a few days since my run in with Nahuel and learning the history and rules of the Nosferatu clans, during that time my grandmother the proxy of my will for the clan contacted me… Not sure how she got my email or my number but I rather not know the answer. Anyway, she contacted me with the details about the duel and the third neutral party that would watch over it and they would decide on the location but before any of that we all had to meet somewhere at the third party's choice and discuss the terms of the duel. To be honest all this was very confusing… If it wasn't for my mother who walked me through the process.
Finally, the day for the meeting was chosen and the neutral ground… Was Monster High. Great just great. Sighing I shook my head as I walked onto the grounds of the school. "Why here…"
"As I told my grandson. This school is a neutral ground for all monsters." My grandmother's voice echoed right next to me. Yeah, the old bat had come down to 'watch' over the duel and make sure I didn't do anything to embarrass the clan. "Now come we must meet in the staff room." And like that the older vampire led the way toward the school. Lucky for us the meeting was set when no one expect for the staff would be in the building, which worked for me. I would hate having to explain who my grandmother was or why we were here. Following my grandmother, I placed my hands into the pockets of my jacket. As we walked I felt this feeling of doom creeping up my spine, I knew that this was supposed to be a friendly meeting more or less but still, I was worried. I was basicly going to be fighting or for right now setting the rules for a fight that could lead to either serious injury or even death. Despite the fact it was a 'friendly' duel, the fact that I was told accidents happen didn't really give me any confidence.
"We're here." The steely voice of my grandmother broke through my thoughts.
Nodding I looked at the older woman before stepping into the room, once I was in the room I took stock of everything and everyone in the room. The room itself was very long and large and in the center, was a long black table with purple lines on it. Sitting in large chair which was the closest to the door was Headmistress Bloodgood, on the farthest end was Nahuel who was reading some kind book, and sitting near the center was a woman, and to be honest I had never seen a stranger woman before in my life.
She was extremely thin, like paper thin and yet she didn't look unhealthy. Just really, really thin. She had long messy blonde hair done up in a bun which was held together by a pair of chopsticks. She had on a pair of glasses that rested on the edge of her nose. Turning my head, I noticed she was wearing some kind of business suit and skirt but it was very loose. She looked like a little kid trying to play dress up. Yet despite all that she gave off this aura of danger, like everything single instinct in my brain shouted at me to get away from her.
Looking up from his book Nahuel nodded at my grandmother and then at me. "Good to see you, please have a seat."
Despite my better judgement I took a seat next to Headmistress Bloodgood and nodded at her. Smiling tiredly the older woman nodded back, my grandmother sat next to her and folded her fingers together and rested her hands on the table.
"Now that we are all here, I believe some introductions are in order, clan leader of the Renoir, and his proxy." Nahuel nodded at my grandmother and myself. "This…" He said gesturing toward the woman near the middle of the table. "Is our neutral party, Miss Havoc."
Looking up at her name being said Havoc smiled showing waaayy to many teeth and then her eyes focused on me for a moment. I swear it felt like she was deciding whether or not she wanted to eat me. However, the feeling left she turned her gaze away from me and shook her head. "A pleasure to meet you, new clan leader." Her voice was very strange, hollow and yet it seemed to echo throughout the room and inside of my mind.
"It is our pleasure to see you again Miss Havoc." My grandmother said bowing her head before nudging me.
"Umm... Yeah it's a pleasure to meet you Miss Havoc." I said bowing my head toward the strange woman.
Making some kind of noise Havoc reached inside of her suit jacket and pulled out pen and some papers, quickly going over them she slid the papers toward me and Nahuel. Looking over the paper I raised an eyebrow, on it were a list of accepted ways to duel.
"Magic…Physical powers…Will…" Raising an eyebrow I shook my head and stared at the list.
"Since you are the challenged party clan leader Renoir you may choose the form of battle but be warned your opponent may reject your choice so have a second one prepared." Havoc said in that strange echo like voice of hers.
Looking at my grandmother who gently tapped physical powers I nodded, that was perhaps the only thing I could do on the list, hell it may even give me an advantage given what I can do. "Physical powers if that's alright with Nahuel."
"You will find no objections from me." The dark-skinned man grinned. "In fact, I was hoping you would choose that."
"Well given the fact that I don't know any magic, or what this 'Will' is I think physical powers are my only choice."
Smirking slightly Nahuel shrugged. "True, now that order of business is out of the way, we may continue on with the next part of business."
"Which is what?" I asked with a raised eyebrow.
"The location, Miss Havoc do you have a place for us to duel quietly and out of the way?" Nahuel asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Indeed, it is a small football field which should serve well as a battle ground. I have already made the necessary arrangements so no one will disturb us." The blonde said. "I will provide you both with the necessary details as we get closer to the date of the duel. Now how does two days from now sound?"
"Fine with me, unless D has any problem with it." Nahuel looked at me with a raised eyebrow.
"I- "I started to speak but was cut off by my grandmother.
"It is, we shall see you there." The older woman placed a hand on my shoulder and dug her nails in to keep me quiet.
Nodding Havoc jotted a few things down. "Good now you may go. I have some things to attend to. Nahuel, clan leader Renoir and his proxy. Bloodgood." Standing to her feet the strange woman's body folded together itself together and vanished from sight. Nahuel smirked slightly and stood to his feet and walked out the door thus leaving me alone with Bloodgood, and my grandmother.
"Headmistress, would you excuse us for a moment." My grandmother's voice cut through the room.
"Of course." Standing to her feet the older woman patted my shoulder and left the staff room.
After a few minutes, the old woman turned to face me. "We have much to discuss."
Frowning I nodded standing to my feet I crossed my arms across my chest. "Yeah, we do, what makes you think two days is more than enough- "
"Two days isn't enough, but sadly we can't put it off forever." The silver-haired woman stared down at me. "Nahuel is a clan leader which makes him a fighter, he has had centuries to train, to fight, and do not think that your little 'victory' against my husband means you are a superior being. Your grandfather was arrogant and did not take you seriously. Nahuel will not make his mistake. My job is to make sure you can survive, this may be a 'friendly' bout but make no mistake he will kill you if you're not careful or your weak."
Staring at my grandmother I took in a deep breath and sighed. "Fine, what did you have in mind?"
Then my grandmother gave me a smirk that was eerily similar to my own when my vampire half was in charge and it scared the living crap out of me. "We are going to train."
When my grandmother said train, what she should have said was torture because that is what it felt like. For the next two days, I had been subjected to the worst possible things imaginable, two grueling days of sparing against both my grandmother and my mother both agreed that I would need to experience what it was like to fight as a true vampire. What I did against my cousins was not truly fighting…and what I did against my evil clone was close but when Nosferatu fight truly fight, they fight with everything, all their powers and they hardly remain in human form. At most they turn into a shadowy mass of tendrils which then take form of either hands, claws, wings or whatever else, very rarely did they remain in the human form when fighting. The few exceptions were if the Nosferatu were young… Like me and my cousins or when facing a weaker opponent to make a fight more interesting.
"Come on grandson, you know you can do it, you are perhaps one of the most powerful vampires in three centuries." Staring down at me my grandmother placed her hands behind her back.
Panting heavily, I looked up at the silver-haired demon that called herself my grandmother and I spat out blood. "Yeah, right… I can hardly stand up to you an old bat and my mother."
"Mother perhaps we are too hard on him, he is but a boy." My mother said with a worried look on her face.
"Simone, you will not coddle the boy." My grandmother snapped before turning to face me. "And just because you have power doesn't mean anything. You need to think D you're a clan leader and as a clan leader you need more than power you need to be smart." Crossing her arms my grandmother stared down at me. "And unfortunately, you haven't been fighting with your brain. All your life you fought with power but now you need to wake up and realize that you are no longer a big fish in a small pond, but instead you are in an ocean filled with sharks."
"And there is blood in the water." I said frowning before standing back to my feet. "Fine teach me how to fight off these sharks."
"Now you are sounding like a true vampire."
