1 Where am I?

*whoosh*

"You can't hide from us forever Catherine!" "It's only a matter of time, so just give us the baby and we'll let you die a quick death!" -???????

Silence was all that greeted the man, however he was excepting this.

"Tch. Find her and bring her to me."-???????

"ARRRRAAAHHH" His minions all resonated at once, roars being heard across the whole forest.

~~~~~~~~

"Quickly Vernon go and take my child and hide him!" - Catherine said while gasping for air.

"But madame I can't! You go instead and hide with your child. I'll hold them for however long I can."- Vernon

"Vernon you know I can't go on anymore, I'm running on fumes. I'm only slowing you down, instead take my child and hide him. That's all I ask of you."- Catherine said in a sad tone.

" But madame..."- Vernon responded in a grim tone.

"It's okay Vernon, it's better this way. At least my boy won't have to see his mother die." - Catherine said while tears began to form in her eyes.

"Plus I'm only human, I won't be able to get as far. You on the other hand might have a chance. So go now! Quickly before they catch up."- Catherine said in a firm tone, leaving no space for argument.

*whoosh* Was all that was heard, Vernon wasting no time began his escape with his young master.

"If only it could have gone another way, where did we go wrong." - Catherine

"Hmm I do wonder where you went wrong. Perhaps I could enlighten you." - ??????? Said in a low tone with hints of mockery.

Catherine quickly turned her neck to look at the person speaking.

"Ishmael"- Catherine said in a disgusted and anger tone.

"Now, now. No need to be so angry Catherine, it would do you no good anyways."- Ishmael said while grinning.

"How?! It should have taken you at least 5 minutes to catch up to us!"- Catherine spoke out loud in a concern tone.

Ishmael in response only started picking his ear before answering.

"What good would it be to answer a dead person."- Ishmael

Ishmael having responded began to laugh out loud in what can only be described as a evil tone. While Catherine laid on the dirt of the forest glaring at him.

"Oh Catherine. I tired to be a good person, I really did. I gave you a chance to give me your baby, but alas you refused. So don't blame me for your terrible death."- Ishmael

*snap*

And just like that with a snap of his fingers, Catherine was mauled to death by Ishmael's minions.

"AUGHH!!!"- Catherine screamed in pain and agony, trying to escape the grasps of the foul creatures. But alas it was all for nothing as her fate had been sealed. And in her final moments the last word that she uttered was her child's name.

"Leo..."- Catherine

"Now were was I? Oh right, it's that stupid baby. Go and bring him to me. And kill anything that stands in your way." - Ishmael

"AAAARRRAAAHHH" Once again all his minions screamed out loud. Waking up all the animals in the forest, while the echos of their screams woke up the towns further ahead.

~~~~~~~~~

*Huff* *Huff* *Huff*

"We're almost there master Leo, I swear that we'll make it."- Vernon

However before Vernon could go any further he was surrounded by lshmael's minions.

"AARARARAAHHH" They all scream out loud while their saliva dripped down from their mouths.

"WAAHHHH"- Leo cried out loud, as their screams had woken him up.

"Don't worry master Leo, it won't take more then a few minutes to get rid of this trash." - Vernon said hastily.

However that was easier said then done as they outnumbered him 12:1. Even if Vernon was a noble vampire, it still wouldn't be a easy task. That is until he pulled out his revolver and started shooting at the lesser vampires. The lesser vampires however wouldn't stand still either, some started to whip at Vernon with their long tongues while others charged at him. But it mattered not what they did, as in no more then a minute they all died.

And throughout this whole exchange Leo was crying out loud. Not knowing what was happening, but was nonetheless scared.

POV: Leo

"Where am I?!" "What's happening?!" "Why can't I see!" "Why can't I move!" "What's this foul smell?!" "And why is my hearing muffled?!"- Leo said out loud, but all that came out was him crying "WAAAHHH"

So many questions were popping up in Leo's head at the moment. He had no idea what was happening to him, nor where he was at. The last thing he remembered was him eating a grilled cheese while watching a movie late at night. Before he... choked and passed out.

*Boom*

As if a bomb had exploded inside of his brain he remembered everything that had transpired that very same night.

*Boom* *Boom* *Boom*

Multiple things started to hit him at once. His whole past life was thrown at him, which caused him to cry out again in pain. However to Vernon it looked like he was scared of the fighting, which in a way was also true.

"WAHHH"- Leo

~~~~~~~~~~

Vernon wasting no time scooped up Leo and ran, he ran as fast as he could. For he knew if he were to try and fight Ishmael it would be a massacre for him. Vernon may be a noble vampire, but Ishmael was royalty. Vernon was simply not Ishmael's match, how could he be when royalty is simply in another realm.

Luckily though he managed to drop off Leo in a orphanage.

"Sorry master Leo, but this is the only way." "I may have killed Ishmael's minions but he'll surely be able to track us down, so this is were we split." "But be strong master Leo, be strong for your future holds many challenges up ahead." - Vernon

And with his final message to Leo, Vernon went back to the forest to get Ishmael off Leo's track.

~~~~~~~~~

"Vernon stop being such a idiot and tell me where the stupid baby is at!!!"- Ishmael said with clear anger and irritation in his voice.

*Huff* *Huff* *Huff*

"I refuse..."- Vernon

"Then die." - Ishmael said in a voice devoid of emotions, as he just about had enough of his defiance.

"Sure *huff* but *huff* I'm taking *huff* you with me!!" -Vernon

However unlike Vernon's expectations he did in fact not take Ishmael with him. No Ishmael was perfectly fine, like if he just went out for a walk. And with his right hand gripping Vernon's neck, he snapped it in two.

*crack*

"I have no clue why you would dare defend such a creature." - Ishmael said in a disgusted tone.

Ishmael then proceeded to wipe his right hand with his handkerchief to get the blood off. And was soon about to search the towns nearby when he noticed the sun had begun to rise.

"Tch." - Ishmael

Ishmael could have very well continue to search for Leo, but that would be considered foolish. For royalty may not die from the sun like lesser vampires, or get severe heatstroke like noble vampire's. But they in turn have their strength diminished to that of a above average human. And with all the ruckus they made the nearby towns would surely be on high alert. So he had no choice but to withdraw.... for now.
