Annabelle La'Crain - The Prophecy

Chapter 11 - To Know The Truth

Annabelle leapt up from where she had been hiding and came behind one of the vampires. And, brandishing a stake, she grabbed him from behind and plunged it into his heart, she then pulled it out and threw him to the ground. The rest of the vampires turned to look at her, "Hi guys, you know, I guess my invitation got lost in the mail." Annabelle said, smiling, suddenly the vampires all dropped their humans and ran at Annabelle two at a time. Annabelle threw one over her back and stabbed him in the heart and then tussled with the other, eventually winning. Annabelle killed vampire after vampire until only Scar, the king, and the other female vampire was left.

Panting, Annabelle turned to face them. She then ran at Scar and staked him in the heart, "That's for my family" she growled at him as he died. Annabelle then got up and looked at the king and the woman, "Sorry for spoiling your party" she said sarcastically, the woman simply smiled at her and then turned to the king and ripped his heart out. "Spoiled, you didn't spoil the party, now that you're here, the party can finally begin." The woman said to Annabelle, smiling and approaching her. "What do you mean..." Annabelle started, but then it clicked, "...You're Scar, he was just a decoy to throw people off, and all these people, and vampires that just died, you planned that too" "Right and right again. You see, 12 dead vampires, at the hands of a vampire slayer, you, and 12 dead humans at the hands of vampires, that kind of blood shed all in the same place, especially in a place as powerful as this, well that's the power behind a prophecy, the bloodshed. I mean, that's why you are the way you are, you survived the massacre here that night so many years ago, people practically lined up really, all of them trying to protect you, that kind of strength, to be able to survive that, has power, so with a few well-chosen words from yours truly, I had found our next queen. It just took about a thousand years for you to be ready."

"Your next queen? Wait... Me?! What do you mean for me to be ready? I would never help vampires, NEVER!" Annabelle yelled, backing away from Scar slowly. "Of course you, only someone that has killed as many of our kind as you have could have power over our blood... that kind of anger, that kind of killer instinct, where do you think it comes from, the vampire inside of you, and when you kill, the vampire comes out." Scar replied, grinning from ear to ear, walking closer and closer to Annabelle. "No... But... But I have never killed a human before" Annabelle replied trying desperately to find evidence of a lie in Scar's face, but there wasn't any... because Scar wasn't lying.

Suddenly the room began to shake, and Scar pulled off Annabelle, and slowly walked backwards looking at Annabelle with a satisfied grin on her face.

"There will come a night where the moon shines blue and the stars shine red, and on this night shall come the daughter of Athena. She will be the embodiment of a 17 year old, and shall have great powers, powers which she uses against the undead and other evil beings...

This is what was written, this is what has come to pass...

But on this night the girl shall cease to be a hunter of the undead, and shall become the true embodiment of who she is, her true soul shall be revealed. On this night, for this to happen, she shall see her love die and then die a terrible and bloody death herself.

This is what was written, this is what has come to pass...

And on this night she shall transcend into a being of immense of immense power.This is what was written, this is what has come to pass...

And on this night, after having completed the transformation, she shall take her rightful place on the throne as the rightful Queen of Vampires, and her loyal bodyguards, The Order Of The Blood Raiyn shall ensure her survival, rule and power.

This is what was written, this is what I shall ensure will come to pass."

Scar said reciting each line as though she were reciting verses from a bible.The room began shake uncontrollably, and the brightest white light began emanating from Annabelle, suddenly the lights burst and engulfed the room, and then whisked Annabelle away.
