The hunters raised their silver stakes, (also known as silver blades) as they charged through the deep, cold and dark forest. It was the very start of their nearby future, if they make it out alive. Loud grunts and screams were heard from outside of the forest as they were attacking the vampires. One by one, the vampires slowly started to decay into dust, until something suddenly blinded the hunters. There was a bright light, before there was pure darkness. A black void of nothing. Did they die, you ask?

They did. Most of them never made it through the forest. Their souls were still inside their bodies, which made the vampires want to pounce onto them to rip them apart with their bare hands. "Your majesty?" one of them asked, "What are you doing here?"

"Don't touch them. I want to keep them for myself."

"We were just about to win!"

The tall woman turned her head to look at her old friend, whose name was Alexandra. "Have you heard of a thing called slavery?" she asked her before Alexandra widened her eyes in a bit of shock. "I guess not. I want to keep them as their long life punishment. Do you all understand?"

"Yes, your majesty."

"Good. Pick their bodies up and bring them back to our home."

And so they did. The mysterious woman was pretty deadly. She was a couple of centuries old, but she looked like she was 20 in human years.

Moving on with this background story, the humans have lost their right to live. They were converted and had their memories completely changed. In their soulless eyes, they keep saying that they were either dying, or had a bad disease in their systems. The depressing truth is that they don't know that they were the people that tried their damn hardest to save the world...

A few years later, there was some news.

There was still a few hundred humans left...

And one of them was about to have a large and unexpected surprise of their life.
