6 Things You Need To Know About Vampires By Carmella Quan Sun "To anyone who has been blissfully unaware, vampires are real. And they walk among you. It is unknown just when the vampires roam the earth all that is certain is the creatures of the night have blended into human society and lived many secret lives. It wasn't till some time in the 80s when Darius made himself known to the human public. Sure there were your share of skeptics and there were those cautious to the reveal but, thanks to the respective guilds manipulation of media it wasn't long till the humans managed to embrace us.
And now the vampire society has become a public knowledge. Despite this you still have some dangerous vampires out there and there are six things you must be aware of so that you won't be used as a late night snack.
1. Not All Vampires Burn In The Sun: There are many different kinds of vampires and for some sunlight has a different effect on them. Some burn in the sun while it mostly just weakens them and leaves them vulnerable for an attack.
2. Vampires Aren't Tragic Romantics: That's just BS vampires would spew to bring mortals to a false sense of security. We don't constantly whine about our vampirism or try to kill ourselves to be rid of it. Because our roommate inside our head wouldn't let us if we wanted to. Speaking of
3. Every Vampire Has An Inner Demon: No matter which species of vampire they usually have an Inner Demon that dwells within them. You must do what you can to keep it satisfied. If you don't the end results won't be pleasing for you.
4. Vampires Are Dangerous Predators: Sure we can be affable but at the end of the day you shouldn't keep your guard down on even the nicest ones. One day their predatory instincts will kick in.
5. Only Live Human Blood Works: Remember that whole feeding on animals nonsense? BS. That is just lies elder vampires would provide newborns to give them false hope. The unfortunate fact is vampires must feed to keep their Demon from wrecking havok. No matter how much you'd resist, the thirst always wins."
6. Vampires are strong and fast as Hell. They hit like bricks and they move like speedsters and several of them have some nasty superpowers available to them, depending on their age and training.
Within the private room of a funeral parlor that is also a front for Red Dragon members to conduct their meetings Carmella finishes her introduction to the newest fledgling. Her tone was sympathetic but there's also a no nonsense one in her voice. She has seen this kind of thing from fledglings who thought they get to live out whatever fantasy they've seen from vampire movies. This is the reason why fledglings are given handlers if their creators are not fit to show them the real world of vampires. With her legs crossed she slides a bottle of blood across the table to the newborn. "I know this is pretty intense and I understand you need some time to adjust to the situation. But do you understand the rules that I've provided to you Mr.Blackburn?" Note: Yeah I know and trust there will be a prequel story prior to this but I just love the idea of Carmella mentoring a newly vampired Derrick  |

Note: Yeah I know and trust there will be a prequel story prior to this but I just love the idea of Carmella mentoring a newly vampired Derrick Derrick's blazing red eyes shined as he listened to every word and took all of it to heart. Despite what happened to him he had always been a very good student and an avid listener. "I understand completely, your Highness. Thank you very much for taking the time to explain this to me and for saving me and giving me a place to stay. Uhm, I mean, thank you in general." "Of course. It's the least we can do after what happened." He poured himself a cup from the blood bottle before returning it to Carmella. He took a sip to calm himself. "You're very kind. However there is one important question I feel I must ask." "I understand. I know what you're going to say. So go right ahead." Derrick rubbed the puncture marks on his pale skin. "Is there any law against revenge?" |

"It's a pretty common emotion. Most fledglings in your position have attempted to kill their Creators. Hell my family made the term an artform. But I can tell you from personal experience. Revenge is a dangerous road to travel and it wouldn't improve your situation, only worsen it. Till you'd eventually lose someone that you-" Carmella stopped herself as memories of The Blood Hunt flood back into her mindscape. She took a deep breath and continued. "Who did this to you, they will face justice. Until then the best revenge you could have is to not be who your Creator wants you to be. But to be a good person"

"Who did this to you, they will face justice. Until then the best revenge you could have is to not be who your Creator wants you to be. But to be a good person" "I understand. I will do my best. I will try to reign it in." He sipped the blood down and relaxed as he felt his simmering anger subside for the time being. "Besides, I have some personal experience with how revenge can screw you over." "Anybody in particular?" "Several but lets just start off with The Brannon Family. Long story short, a bunch of cannibal redneck gangsters tried to kill me and my family, we wiped them out and their associates and some extended family members came after us for it. We put them in the ground until the only ones left were just two girls around the same age as me and my cousin. They tried to ambush us at some the carnival from hell and...yeah nobody won that one." He shook his head. "Things got complicated later. I don't know what happened to them after that." He paused and shook his head. "So believe me. I've seen and experienced what revenge can do to someone." |

He shook his head. "Things got complicated later. I don't know what happened to them after that." He paused and shook his head. "So believe me. I've seen and experienced what revenge can do to someone." (So be honest, first impressions) Carmella asked her Inner-Demon, Yao. A vampire naming their Inner-Demon isn't uncommon but it's not something that many vampires often do. Given the rather close relationship the two have shared, it's only appropriate. (It's almost like dealing with an adolescent teenager but better you than Darius. Speaking of, going to tell him that you're co-parenting?) Yao commented from within. (Nooo. Not yet anyway. Going to let him deal with this first then gradually approach him with this.) Carmella smiled at Derrick, "Young man, you just might have a future here. Once you're done with that I'll escort you to your staying quarters" "I'd appreciate that." Derrick wiped his mouth with his napkin. He couldn't quite describe it but it was like every mouth watering meal he had ever savored in his lifetime but doubled. "Oh man that hits the spot!" He rubs the back of his neck. "BTW. About that inner demon you've mentioned. How long would it be till mine kick in?" Carmella shrugged. "I didn't have mine until I was six but for fledglings I'd say about as soon as tonight maybe" Derrick's face winced, he can pick up a whistling sound inside his head. "Oooohh yeaaah. So this is what a perfect 10 looks like. And here I was expecting some Ancient Fossil" |

Derrick realized. (For losing control at the Manor...)(HA! Oh that is definitely on you, kid. It's rare for a Fledgling to lose all control and go berserk on their first night like you did! You woke me up early with that little display! And the most fucked up part is, you didn't even win!)
(If you can see into my mind and my soul then you know better than anyone what I was up against there!)
(Pfft. All I hear is excuses and they are weak. Now listen up kid. I can't speak for the others, but I refuse to play horse to a King who’s weaker than me! If you aren’t willing to assert your strength and retain the crown, then I’ll destroy you……which means……I’ll be King. Understand, kid? If you wish to maintain control of your body, you better be ready to fight for it and show me some grit!)
(Fine. Don't you worry. I'll show you your place soon. We both know I've had enough of maniacs trying to control my mind anyway.)
"Is everything alright, Derrick?" "I-I'm fine. Please allow me a moment." He rubbed his head. "I'm sorry, this is new to me too, it's fighting me." |
