1 Chapter 1: The Day My Life Changed Forever

My name is Quinn Selar. I'm just an average guy who just graduated highschool at 19 years old. My dream is to design video games. My friend Tyler and I have a meeting to sell our first game today. Today is the day my life changes forever.

"Quinn come on we will be late!" Tyler said.

"I'll be down shortly hold on!" I said while looking in my closet.

What to wear. I want to look professional but not like I'm trying to hard. I end up wearing a sweater with jeans.

I rush downstairs and eat a sandwich then we leave. We live in NYC and neither of us can drive. Thankfully it's just a couple miles.

"I hope they will want to buy our game. There's alot of vampire games and most of them are awful." Tyler said.

"Relax man. It's a mobile game about choices as a vampire. Do you feed to kill? Do you drink from bags? Do you stay hidden? Do you reveal yourself to the world? He will be begging to buy this game. Oh and I'm going to ask for a million."

Tyler chokes on his soda. "What? We will be lucky to get five thousand." Tyler said.

I shake my head. "If he wants the game, which he will. He will pay a million." I said smiling.

I'm not confident at all but I have to seem that way so Tyler stays calm. Once we get there we take the elevator up to the top floor.

We present our game the best we can and wait for Mr. Smith's response. "This is your first game?" He asked.

We both nod.

"It's very ambitious. I'm actually surprised it's your first. How much are you asking for?" He sits there waiting for an answer while tapping his pencil on the table.

"With all due respect sir we want to start up a company. We are asking for a million." I said

Tyler starts to sweat. He's been the nervous kind since we were kids. My heart is racing but I have to seem like I've done this before.

A minute goes by of Mr. Smith looking at us and the screen back and fourth.

"You know what? I'd actually love to see what else you can come up with. So how about this amount?" He picked up his checkbook and started writing. He tore a check out before sliding it across the table.

I pick it up and try holding back a smile. I show Tyler and he nearly faints.

"Thankyou, you won't regret it." I said happily but still trying to sound professional.

The check is for five million dollars. We leave to go deposit the check.

"I can't believe he just gave us four million more than what you asked for!" Tyler said as he can't stop laughing. He is so excited.

"I know haha." We went home and Tyler goes to bed. I cant sleep at all so I decide to go on a walk.

About ten minutes after walking I hear a woman scream at the top of her lungs. I run to her aid into an alley.

"Hey! Let her go!" I yelled at the man.

I saw a man kissing a woman's neck but she looked afraid. He turned around and this is when I know I messed up.

He stood tall at 6' while I was only 5'10. And he looks like he goes to the gym regularly. He has yellow eyes and long sharp canines on the top row.

"Oh shit!" I yelled as he dashes toward me in a split second even though there is 20 feet between us.

He sinks his teeth into my neck. I feel my self blacking out. Then I feel a warm liquid enter my mouth and down my throat. It tastes like metal. Then nothing but blackness.
