An Unholy Creation

Chapter Five

Dinner went off without any issues, after that most of the kids were tried, so I took them back to the dorm. Then hunted, I caught a bear a little to close to the town, and a couple deer. Then I went back to my room and rested for the first time since school let out. I didn't get a chance to be alone with Theodore again that day. And I wouldn't until New Year's Day.

The call came from Marcus at three in the morning.

"Kat, you have to come you have to come quick! Hurry! Hurry!" Then the line went dead.

Of course I left the dorm and ran on foot; thankfully it is what is commonly known as the devil's hour, the so called darkest hour of the night. I was at full power. I made it there in two minutes. When I got there, there were four vampires trying to get in. Theodore was standing at the door.

"Let us in, we know she is here, we want her!" The leader of the four was there, screaming at Theodore, of course I recognized two of them. One was my husband when I was human, and he was the one yelling at Theodore. Argos had turned him, thinking it would be what I wanted. But of course once he was turned, he decided that he was not going to be tied down for eternity to me. Of course I felt the same way. He met his vampire lover, Kleopatra, in Ancient Egypt four thousand years ago, she was here as well. With them were Antonio, who is newly turned last two hundred years, and his wife Rossi, I picked their names up from their minds.

"You were looking for me Triremes?" I said from behind them.

Triremes turned around quickly, and growled, actually growled at me. "Katyla, we will not allow him to live. Argos has decided you are no longer above the Vampire Laws." Great now I was going to have to erase some of Theodore's and Marcus's memory, at least until they were turned.

"Now Triremes, you know who your true creator is, do you not? Did Argos not tell you? I am the true creator of our kind. Argos is the opposite of me. That is why we worked well together as human, but as vampires, we of course become sworn enemies. You owe your existence to me, not Argos." Of course we never discussed the events of our existence not even with Triremes, or the others that were as old.

"It does not matter; you still love humans, feel compassion for them, refusing to drink from them."

"I believe all life is sacred." I was moving closer, walking around them; I was going to go for the house; once an invite is given, then it is valid until it is recanted with a spell.

"You killed Gavin. Tell me was a human's life worth more then one of ours?"

"Who is Argos to decide who lives or dies?" I was almost to the door, and I was starting to get very angry because they were talking about killing Theodore and Marcus.

"If what you are saying is true then you created us, and you made us above humans, closer to gods!" Kleopatra was speaking now, and crouching, she was going to pounce.

"Well, since I am your creator that makes me your god, so bow to me!"

"Argos is our leader, never you, you love the humans!" Triremes was so stupid sometimes.

"We were once human! My son is again human! Argos killed OUR SON! Yet you follow him blindly! Your death will be painful, that I promise!" With that I jumped inside, pushing Theodore further into the house and Marcus up the stairs.

Triremes tried to grab me, but for once I was happy of the law of nature that required vampires to have an invite into the house. "You will be sorry Katyla! Siding with humans is now punishable by death in our world!"
