CHAPTER 5 : THE MASKED THEME PARTY

THE VAMPIRE DIARIES - THE CREATURE OF THE DARK

( Year 1870 )

Alden was in one of the many Parties happening in New York City that day. Alden loves being in parties ; but this time he was there for something other than fun, he was there for hidden secrets only known to some ancient Vampires. This party was full of those. For those who don't know what ' The Strix ' is known to be the Oldest Society of Vampires in Existence, which was founded by Elijah Mikaelson and now the leader of this society was Tristan de Martel. Tristan was the first Vampire sired by Elijah and the most powerfull Vampires in ' The Strix '.

This Masked Theme Party was also an Excuse for secret meetings. To take points like keeping peace between sirelines as there were a lot of disputes among them. They were also responsible for countless wars, assasinations and plagues throughout history.

Alden was a part of ' The Strix ' because of Elijah. When Elijah created ' The Strix ' Alden and Aya were the first few Members but when Alden saw Elijah leave him to die by Michael's hands that was the time when he left ' The Strix '. He had jined it again under different circumstances.

As Alden was in the Party he searched for Aya and Tristan to greet them and when he found them Tristan said," Welcome Alden the Brave Warrior, Welcome to New york ." Alden chuckled and said," This is not my first time in Ney York, Tristan ." Tristan said," Offcource you have been here as well when you were on the run from Michael ." Everyone Chuckles but not laughs because if Alden wanted he could take anyone's head off and Tristan would not say a word to him. After he greeted everyone Alden and Aya sat near the bar and were chatting about ' The Great Night ' when every vampire would be able to walk in sunlight and told him about the moonstone , The sun and the moon curse...

Alden said ," It is just a myth, Aya don't believe everything you hear. " Aya nodded and said," I don't believe anything until I have seen it with my own eyes. I have seen the Moonstone, Alden ; I have that's why I believe and you don't ." Aya takes her glass and walks away from Alden. Tristan and other Vampires started walking away in a room Alden followed everyone inside.

This room was spelled by magic; no one from outside could hear them. They started their Secret meeting about wars and where they are gonna be when wars take place. Alden said he didn't kbow where he was gong to be. He said he will be as a soldier when the war takes place. Aya chuckled and said," Lot will die then." Everybody started laughing and strted cheering " Alden, Alden, Alden" Tristan made everyone quiet and said," Now the main thing Protecting and preserving this society." "Does anyone new wants to be a leader ?" Vampire 1 said. No one nodded and even moved The Vampire 1 said," It settles then, no threat. YET . "

Everyone had a long talk about a lot of things. After some hours of talking everyone came outside the room and got mixed up in the party again. Alden asked Tristan and Aya," Have you seen Elijah anytime this decade. Elijah was in New Orleans last I checked. " You want to meet him? You miss him? " Asked Tristan sarcastically . Alden chuckled and said," No, he was just a good friend nothing else. Sometimes I do think if he was with us now what would he do. "

Alden clearly missed Elijah but he had things to do of his own. Prople have a lot of things to do when they are in love. Alden was in love with a girl who used to live in New York itself. She was a human. There was a 200 years old Young Vampire who told Alden About a interesting prophecy which is going to take place.
