The tall vampire's mouth turned into a vicious smile, displaying the teeth with his sharp fangs, glistening to the light.

"Vampires!" I shrieked in panic, ran to my parent's side, I wondered if they knew about them.

"Mom, tell me it's a dream" I whisper pleaded at her, she shook her head in response. It took a few minutes to wrap my head around the reality, the very existence of the creatures of the dark shook my verity about all the other myths too, I wondered if they were myths anymore?

"Why do you want them? Please spare us, you can drink from others, we will not utter a word about this to anyone, please spare us" I begged at them, begging seemed like the only choice I was left with, we didn't have a chance to outwit them.

They all looked at me in amusement, like I was their current entertaining pageant.

"You can ask your parents to drink, for the last time but... They will come with us" the taller one commanded with finality, it was clear that he was the head of this coven from his conversation.

"What do you mean? Why should they drink blood?" I asked, mulling questions over the question, graced with mysteries over mysteries.

"You don't know?" They asked, lips forming into an arrogant smirk, he walked towards me, grabbed my hand, and pierced a thin line in my wrist.

Blood oozed from the place it was cut but what was more shocking was that my parents had turned numb and their teeth grew into fangs, matching with the strangers.

"Vampire!" I thought out loud, tears streaming down my cheeks. I heard some laughter erupting between the spectators.

"Honey..." My mother started, but I shook my head, gesturing them to not speak but can I leave them to be taken away? No, definitely not, they may not be my biological parents but still, they were the ones that raised me by putting their lives into jeopardy.

"Spare them please, let them live their life," I asked the leader of the coven.

"They are vampires, vampires are not supposed to raise a human child, they broke the law, kept you hidden, and now they will pay the price" he replied with no emotion.

I glanced at them and my parents, I couldn't give up on them, I replied "I will do anything you ask me to do, please spare them" I begged, that was my last hope.

"You will?" The leader asked, I nodded at him in agreement.

"What are you doing, no Hope stop it, let them take us" my mother stated but I'm was not in the mood to be told off.

The leader nodded at his members, having a silent conversation within them, he glared at me and replied, "turn!"

I looked at him in confusion, what does he mean by turn? He glared at my parents and commanded "turn her or kill her".
