CHAPTER 1. A TORN VEIL

In a very far off kingdom,in an ancient prestigious mansion, though looked ancient but classy as well. It was night and the weather didn't seem to be friendly at all,the rain was pouring down in torrents, pounding hard on the castle's rooftop,thunder and lightening roared, tearing the sky in a blinding flash,the heavy rain accompanied by an heavy wind made it seem as though there was war in the heavens.

Soon,a set of red eyed creatures appeared, jumping and leaping very fast,it appeared they were being pursued by another set of red eyed creatures,they looked so fierce and angry,and they didn't look like ones who would want to come to terms with anyone or anything at that moment. In their faces could also be seen a form of intense scorching hunger as they all ran, hundreds of them into the dark forest.

Some were being shut down by arrows by the other party but the others remained determined and unwavered in their quest,they all fought their way as if it was their only way to freedom,..well,it actually was to them!!!.

Soon,they got to a spot where the lightening was highly concentrated and there in the middle of the open space in the woods,a woman with long hair,clouded in long black apparel is seen standing close to something that looked like a torn veil,a portal it was. She had her hands spread out,her eyes closed and her lips making some incantations as if conjuring something.

"Stop them!!!!" An elderly man on a running horse ordered,the rebel vampires looked back and hissed and without hesitation,they all started to run and jump into the portal, hundreds of them , along with the portal swallowing them all up at once.

"Noooo" the man on the horse roared and his eyes suddenly turned pitch black as he threw a somersault out from his horse and landed on his foot "after them" he commanded his army and on his call,a bloody fierce battle ensued between the two parties.

The elderly man had a huge crown carefully and firmly placed on his head, indicating that he was a king,and with his weapon,he struck at the woman in white making incantations but sadly,it had no effect as it easily bounced off. The king was old and his powers were dwindling hence it wasn't strong enough to penetrate the woman's powerful shield.

And although the king's army were fierce and even wise enough to form a barricade around the portal to prevent more vampires from going through,many still slipped through. The king began to wonder when and how this vast majority of rebellion was formed under his nose,he looked at the woman in white still conjuring and his anger rose,what she was doing was making his reign and all he'd ever worked for go in vain.He was just about to strike again,harder this time when he suddenly felt a familiar cold presence that sent chills down his spines.

The rain was still falling but then it seemed to have reduced down a little but the lightening still had the sky tearing apart. The king froze in his place alongside with his Elite vampires,the opposing vampires and the rebel ones trying to escape into the portal all halted as well as they too had experienced that all too well known chill that even the cold or rain itself couldn't make them feel.

It was only a matter of seconds before they all started to tremble along with those fighting by the king's side,they all were somewhat tensed except for the king who let out a heavy sigh of relief ' oh good gracious,what a last minute miracle '.

The woman who had her eyes closed all these while opened her eyes in shock ' w-what was she doing here?,how did she get here!!,she had planned it in such a way that she was far away when all these happened and before she returned, everything was concluded so how did she appear here all of a sudden, This was bad, really bad!!.

The vampires had stopped fighting now and had started to scan the area as if expecting something big to come out from anywhere at anytime. They all were on high alert as though a bigger enemy had just arrived.

The fighting vampires slowly retreated and made their way back to their king's side to avoid being mistaken by any chance as an enemy and ending up as a scape goat.

Everywhere had gone silent and the rain had surprisingly stopped,only the loud sound of howling wind could be heard. Their red eyes were now scanning around, looking for the soul whose felt presence had stopped a fierce battle but she was nowhere to be found.

They Knew they weren't mistaken nor was it an illiusion,she was here! And there was no doubt about it. But the question was where exactly was she,what direction was she coming from,and in what form was she in?!!.

The portal was now free but the remaining vampires dared not move,it was as though they'd all been glued to the ground and they were so sure that with her being here,if they were to take even a single ungodly move, their heads would be quick to fly off their body after all an half demon wasn't one to be messed with!!.

All of a sudden,they all heard a loud whistling sound and in one go,they all turned towards the direction of an oak tree where in the sound came from but before their eyes could fully settle on the tree to look for her,the whistling sound came again but this time from the opposite direction,what the hell!!!!, They all trembled as their heads again were quick to whip towards the place.

They all had their heads turned towards the recent whistle sound area when they all heard the soft flapping of a jacket behind them and the ominous chill became even more intense locking each one of them on the spot.

She was there,just right behind them!!!!
