As I was heading my way to the mountains, all I could think about was my wife, her gorgeous smile kept popping in my head,but then Lucy's evil smirk came in the picture and got me all angry again as tears came flowing down my cheeks. My rage grew more and more for revenge, soon enough I arrived at the front gates of Count's castle. "Who goes there?" Said one of the guards, " I'm here to see Count" I said, "he's been expecting you" he said, then he opened the gate for me, "he's in the great hall" he said, I thanked him and walked right through the front doors.
I looked around and noticed that there was no walls anywhere, it was just one big room with the throne sitting right in the middle, "wow" I said, "this was the very first castle ever built...having your people surrounding you is a great feeling, makes you feel closer to them, instead of having them being in the next room" said Count as he stood by me. "Its beautiful" i told him. " I'm sensing rage in you, and sadness but a lot of anger" he said, I closed my eyes and took a deep breath to calm myself down. "Revenge for someone you love and lost....I'm so sorry for your lost" he said. How did he know?. I looked at him and said "can you help me?, She needs to pay for my...my..", he cut me off, "you want my army? You can have them plus my kingdom" he said, " is that what your gift is? " I asked but he shook his head, "no, my gift...is hard to explain and might frighten you" he said, I stay silent so he can continue.
"I'm offering you...immortality. ..my name is Count Dracula and I'm a vampire" he said then his fangs came out and his eyes glowed in the shadows. I jumped a little but I stood my ground, "I've heard stories about you but I never believed it...why do you want to give it to me?" I asked, he turned back to normal and said, "I've been around for 3500 years, watched my family die of old age, I too lost a love one before I became...this...3500 years I've looked for someone worthy to take this gift", "me?" I said, " yes...you are fearless, strong, control, and caring...that's what makes you a true leader and worthy...are you willing to accept my gift? " he asked, "how's this gift gonna help me if I'm just gonna burn in the sunlight?" I asked, " Ah.. " he said, then he walked to door and opened it, letting the sun hit his skin, "full blooded vampires don't burn, but not just that, I received the gift of speed, mind reading, flying and self heal...if you accept this gift, than you will get them as well but you might receive more...the one who gave me this, only had speed and flight, the rest I was giving...so what do say?" He said.
All I could think about was revenge so I accepted his offer without hesitation, he also explain to me that I could turn anyone I want, then he handed me a cup of red liquid. "Drink this...Its my blood mixed with wine...Once you're done, I will finally be set free and die" he said, before I could drink it he stopped me, " before you do, I have to show you my soldiers" I nodded and he lead me to a room on the left. The room was pitch black but once he growled, the lights came on and there was about 500 men staring at us with blank expression.
"They are half vampires, very lethal in combat, I've given them a temporary ability to fight during daylight, they requested that you end their lives when the battle is done, all you have to say is "I release you" and they're free" he said, I nodded and then I drank the entire glass. Suddenly everything in my body began to burn, I screamed in pain as I got on my knees, "yes" Dracula growled lowly. After fifteen minutes of pain, it was finally over, I slowly stood up and opened my eyes,
