Living Up To The Name

Vlad had been traveling through the seas for years. He was trying to figure out a way to track his enemies but couldn't find one. As he was about to give up, he just remembered that he was bound to rendezvous with another vampire but he forgot his name. Nighttime had fallen over the sea. Just when he was about to shove his hand in the water for some fish, he heard a loud horn. This loud horn came from a cruise ship. As Vlad saw the cruise ship he saw a meal. The cruise almost contained 5,000 passengers. Vlad quickly started sprinting towards the cruise ship at top speeds. He sharpened his claws across rocks and jumped into the air, latching himself onto the back of the cruise ship, beginning to climb. It took him less than a minute to reach the top. Since it was night time almost every passenger was fast asleep. The only ones awake were the janitors who were cleaning up the mess left after a birthday party. Vlad latched his feet onto the steel railings and frontflipped onto the deck. He landed on his feet without making a sound.

In front of him stood a janitor who was listening to music on his radio while he mopped. The janitor did his best to sing along with the music but produced a very awful false impersonation. His singing was atrocious Vlad's eardrums were hurting. Vlad extended out his incredibly sharp claws drove his hand through the janitor's chest, ripping out his beating heart. The janitor vomited up blood and collapsed on his knees, dying instantly. Vlad started laughing. Vlad then bit a huge chunk out of the janitor's heart, before tossing the half-eaten heart over to the side into the ocean. The janitor didn't even get to scream. Vlad wanted more. As he turned the corner he saw 2 janitors walking and talking about how bad their jobs were. Vlad hopped onto the roof and patiently waited for the janitors to spot their coworkers. When they spotted their coworker's body, they instantly started screaming for help, running the panic alarm. The panic alarm was much louder than the horn. The panic alarm awoke all the passengers who wondered what the hell was going on. Vlad leaped into the air and began announcing himself.

Humans!!!" Welcome to your doom!!!" The captain decided to show some guts. Who the hell are you?" What's going on?" Vlad started laughing. I am going to give you and these passengers a once and lifetime opportunity to become a vampire and obey my orders." Either that or you all become my dinner. The captain began whispering among his fellow companions. They were signaling another person to activate the defense mechanisms. However, before they could even attempt to do anything, Vlad decided to turn each and every person on the cruise into mindless beastly vampires that only had one thing on their minds, to devour. Vlad was still going to meet up with a fellow vampire. All vampires shared a blood bond. They knew where each other where.

Back In The Industrial Elven Empire's Underwater City, Inside Gonzalo's private lab.

Gonzalo just finished making Jose's new and improved cyborg body. The only thing that was intact in his previous body was his brain. Gonzalo walked up to Jose and sawed off the top of Jose's skull, slowly removing his brain, placing it in an icebox. The body Gonzalo made was 6 feet tall weighing 220 pounds. The skin was made from titanium alloy, making it nearly impossible to damage. This time he forgot to place a chip into Jose's brain. This meant he wouldn't be able to control him. The bionic body had the appearance of a 20-year-old man. Everything was set. It was time to place the brain into the body.

King Hendrix's Throne Room.

King Hendrix planned another assault on The Royal Elven Empire. He was confident his plan would work. When he was about to summon his generals, his brother Ragnar walked in, holding a bloody yellow banner. Ragnar placed the bloody yellow banner by King Hendrix's feet. " What is this?" What have you done now?" Ragnar sighed. Don't you recognize the banner?" King Hendrix stood up from his throne and picked the banner, carefully examining it. As he realized whom the banner belonged to, his eyes began popping out of his head. He placed the banner on the ground and stared at Ragnar. Ragnar walked up to the bar and fixed himself a drink. " It was about time someone dealt with those bandits. They were stealing your weapons, killing off citizens, and burning buildings to the ground. How could you just stand here and watch them do that to your city?" Ragnar snickered. And you call yourself a king?" Please." If you can't even keep some bandits in check there is no way you are winning this war." King Hendrix was tired of Ragnar. He lunged towards Ragnar and grabbed him by his neck, slamming him against the wall. " You fucking idiot!" Do you realize what you have done?!" yelled Hendrix. Ragnar was confused. " Get your fucking hands off of me!" I was doing you a favor by doing your dirty work!" This is the thanks I get?!" I should have never come here, brother."

King Hendrix sighed. He took his hand from around Ragnar's neck and sighed, pouring himself a tall glass of strawberry vodka. Let me ask you this question." Did you kill Albert Valentino?" Ragnar raised his eyebrow. Yes, I did." What's the problem?" King Hendrix guzzled half of his glass of strawberry vodka. Have you ever heard of The Industrial Serpents?" Yes." said Ragnar. Their leader's name is Nikola Valentino, also known as The Abuser Of Light And Darkness." Albert Valentino was his younger brother." Ragnar snickered. King Hendrix walked up to the wall and took removed a key from his pocket, inserting it into a keyhole, twisting it counterclockwise. Suddnely an array of weapons and old armor worn by King Hendrix who participated in the wars previously. He stuck on his helmet and rubbed red war paint around his eyes. He cracked his knuckles. He knew he just made another enemy. It was time for The Industrial King to live up to his name and show his true power.
