The Nighte Moorin Chronicles

Chapter Twelve

Ravens POV--
------
I hesitated for a minute, sipped my drink and cleared my throat.

"Okay so I've heard a bunch of stories and tales but the most frequently told is that many many years ago there was this big thing that happened in the Mansion..." Jess paused paused, I  nodded.

"Apparently this town used to be called 'Night Shade Mountain Valley' Long name I know- and it used to be the home of Vampires.." She paused and lowering her voice when she said Vampires. A man in the corner, looked over at me then went back to his paper. I looked around an went back to Jess, leaning in. "According to the tales, they were known as the "Elders" of the race, they used to rule over the human race with a Royal family...like a king an queen. But a group of them rebelled and tried to destroy the human race. According to the story, the king and queen was turned by the rebels and they started to order for the human race to be destroyed. Apparently the ones who wanted the human race to live were banished, and went to another country. The biggest event that happened that haunts the mansion was one man. He tried to save the human race, by killing his own kind. And was punished for the deed of killing his own. Dismembering, burning, and all. It's said that he still lives there in conditions of living set by the Elders!" She  said. I  was very interested at this point.

"Do you think it's real?" She asked, I shrugged. She nods softly, and taps her glass. "Yeeeesh, that would be horrible!" She says softly then suddenly perks.

"Ooohhh!!! I know what we can do!" She said brightly, "Let's explore it!"

I look at her, "The Mansion?" Jess nods, "An be charged with trespassing and never leave the country again? God no." I say, rolling my eyes. She huffs at me.

After a few sips of tea, she perks again. "Let's go find Melrik." She said, I smile.

(For you who don't know, Melrik isn't his real name. It's George Jones. He's a believer in old tales, and anything extraordinary. He studies all of it and is the most knowledgeable person in the field. He could tell a lie from truth from a great lair, and can pick out facts from a folks tale. He likes Melrik because that was the name of an old wise man in our history. )

"I haven't seen him in so long!!" I say. She smiles.

"After though, I haven't seen you in a bit so lets chat an then go." Jess says, I smile.

"Ohhh I remember seeing a picture of you in the paper!" Jess beamed. I nod.

"Yeah. I was just sitting there an a guy asked if he could draw me. So I let him" I laugh. She smiles.

"Was he cute?" She asks, I nod.

"A bit" I laugh.
