Vampire IssuesA Story by Mip/John K. BrierleyThe issues of the vampiric bounty hunter, Daniel Williams.This story will be in the perspective of Daniel Williams, a vampire turned at a young age that can walk in the daylight because he is also partly a mysterious race that opposes the vampires, however, Daniel doesn't know what yet. This will be my first story through his perspective, and as such, I'll list a few extra things about him. "Today we'll be discussing the myths of the medieval age." the teacher says. No idea what his name is since school started. I just turned 17 today and I'm wondering what to do with this. "Hey Crysala, bet I can surprise you." "I doubt it but go ahead and try." she says offhandedly. "Want to go out sometime?" Everybody in our corner looks at me like I'm crazy. "Sure, any specific time?" "Maybe this Friday about 7?" "I can do that." "Just make sure I'm expected, you know I hate having to deal with Frecasol." "Agreed." This'll be sure to cause conflicts and lies and attempted murders and poisonings. After school I went with Nora to meet with my 'uncle' Vlad. Apparently I'm getting a bit closer to the circle no matter how much I establish I don't want to be in it. I don't like being important. I hate even being a diplomat. For some reason they think I'm perfect for it. Hell if I know why. "Are you f*****g insane?" she asks me, looking me in the eyes while driving on a highway. "I'm not answering that till the crazy woman starts looking at the road." She glares for a second before glaring at the road. "Do you have any idea what this means?" "I have a girlfriend?" "You may be a very modern vampire even by newborns standards but that doesn't mean she is. Plus think what this means politically. It's like you favor the summer now anyway." "I dated that werewolf when I was 14. I dated a winter at 13, a wizard 14-" "Why didn't all those work out?" "Because they're c***s." "Daniel!" "Sorry. Alright, it was because they couldn't keep up with me and the world. Sorry if I'm not old fashioned." "That wasn't the deal with that one girl. Myra, was it?" "That wasn't either of our faults." "What happened there anyway?" "None of your concern." That's no one's concern. Ever. "Whatever. Vlad has a job for this Friday." "Can't do Friday unless it's after 11." "That date isn't gonna last that long." "Never know. Might have to deal with some stupid idiots." "The fae don't understand boundaries, that's one thing that's always true." I zoned out most of what Vlad told me. He's just an old man that thinks he's still Dracula. To most he still is. "Oi! We all know it was self-defense a*****e! I was still a kid and she attacked me first! It was an accident she died. I still had no idea how to use these things but I do now." "That doesn't explain your sudden growth." "It's a proven thing called the turning or something. I don't f*****g know but I didn't mean to kill her. But I definitely know how to use them now." "Is that a threat?" "No, just a fact." "Both of you calm down this instant." Vlad commands. We listen. He may be old but he's still pretty good at fighting. "Now, your majesty, King Titanus, has a job for you unrelated to his daughter or any other fae for that matter." "Yes. Friday at 1 a.m., your presence will be required for a sparring match as a referee between Crysala and her sister, Sylphide. They are arguing at the moment so your presence is needed so they don't manage to kill each other." "I can do that. Am I being paid this time?" "Only if your interference is required, as agreed." "I'll see you there, your majesty." He then walks out rather rudely. Dick. "Let's get going, Daniel." Nora says softly. I may be a vampire but that doesn't mean I like doing stuff like this at 1 in the morning. I prefer gaming. "Pay attention as I kill your girlfriend." she growls. Titanus stands up. He and I had a rule about if this happened. "Sylphide, are you sure you wish to fight Daniel Williams to first blood?" "What?" Sylphide and Crysala both say, shocked. "Your father and I both agreed if I was attacked in the midst of a duel, it was to be considered a challenge. Do you accept?" "Yes." I throw my broken phone down and stand where Crysala once was and unleash my arm blades with a flourish of my arms. "Bring it." A new tune begins to play. "How are you so strong?!" she gasps in pain. I roundhouse kick her square in the chin, not drawing blood. I pull her back and throw her to the other side of the ring. "Daniel. Your presence is no longer needed." "I'll see you Friday Crysala, unless you'd rather not." "No, come please." "Thanks." I take my leave. I borrowed the car for this date. I'm wearing a semi casual outfit. Black dress pants, dress shoes, and a white button up. I'm honestly nervous about this. I've been wanting to do this for awhile. "You grew these?" she asks. "They almost died a few times." "They smell of it. But there's also a bit of love within them as well." "There better be, it's expensive getting one of those flower wizards to help out, especially when they refuse to touch it." She laughs and offers her hand. That's the end of the story, and I mean it. You don't get to read about their first date, deal with it. I hope you enjoyed. © 2014 Mip/John K. BrierleyAuthor's Note
