Purring and Yipping

Rulers of the Night

AN: The first AU of the series. WOO! Also this is a continuation of a one-shot from another one-shot series that I did last Halloween called 'It's Scary Stuff, My Friend', Chapter 4 on FanFiction.Net. You might wanna read that first so this makes a little more sense. Anyways, let's get to it, quit the rambling, and keep sending me ideas via review or PM because I feel writer's block coming on shortly after this.

Felicity grinned victoriously at the unconscious dog that now laid her arms as she licked his blood off her fangs and lips. She let out a stifled chuckle at the thought of turning the entirety of the world into her kingdom and having her best friend, now soon-to-be mate, rule alongside her. She turned her attention to her newly-transformed minions.

"All of you, leave me and my mate to ourselves." The vampire cat commanded. "I wanna help him get used to his new self."

All the vampires followed her order without question and quickly left the two alone. Once they were alone, Felicity turned back to Miguel. She nuzzled against him, purring as she did. After a few seconds, she effortlessly hauled him onto her shoulders before taking off into the night sky.

Miguel yawned groggily as he woke up. His back and head were absolutely killing him. He wasn't really paying much attention yet and his vision still blurred as some sort of ladle poured something into his mouth. Its sweet but metallic taste was able to jog him awake.

"What did I do?" He groaned. "Why do I taste blood?"

When he got up, he saw he was shocked, horrified, and downright bewildered at the fact he was lying in a double coffin lined with red velvet cushions and pillows. To add to his confusion, Miguel realized he was in a large, dimly lit room with. But to him, it wasn't so dim. It was as if his senses had improved ten-fold, especially hearing, sight, and smell. The dog also saw he was dressed in a black tux with a red cummerbund and bow tie, a medallion, and a black cape lined with red. And the cherry on top of the cake of confusion, Miguel felt around his mouth and found his two upper canines had grown longer and sharper. So sharp, he picked his finger when his touched it.

"This is some dream." Miguel gulped, trying to find a rational explanation for all this. "Where am I?"

"Well, to answer your that question, this isn't a dream." A voice casually answered.

Miguel yelped at the voice and jerked back in surprise when he saw Felicity sitting coyly next to him. This time, she was wearing a long black dress along with her cape.

"Felicity, what's going on here? I thought you were a vampire." Miguel sighed in relief.

"Oh, I still am." Felicity replied, flashing him a grin to show her fangs and prove her point. "And to answer your second question..."

The cat held out a mirror, causing Miguel's non-beating heart to sink. He had no reflection. It all made sense now.

Climbing out of the coffin, Miguel started pacing around the room, repeatedly saying 'No' in a panicked manner.

"Miguel, are you alright?" The cat asked.

The dog snapped around.

"Alright? ALRIGHT?! You turned me into a vampire! What good can come form this?!" Miguel growled. "Although, I will admit the tux is nice."

"Looks like Miguel needs some convincing." Felicity smirked to herself. "Hey, Miguel, look on the bright side."

"What bright side?" Miguel replied, his arms crossed.

"Well, you can do this for one." Felicity began. "Try thinking about flying."

The dog reluctantly complied as he closed his eyes and concentrated on the thought. After a few seconds, Miguel impatiently opened his eyes. Just when he was about to say something, he was surprised to find himself levitating at least five feet off the floor. He had to admit, this was pretty cool.

"This is amazing." He marveled as Felicity flew up to him herself.

"And we can do so much more." She said seductively, running her finger across his chin.

She sensed her plan of tempting him into it was working. Deciding to up the ante, she grabbed him by his paw and they both flew our the window. They flew high in the sky, only Miguel was able to do so without having to ride on her back. They both got an amazing view of Mythlandia at night, save for the terrified screams down below, for reasons you can probably understand. After that, they flew back to the Palace of the Perfect, which would soon become their palace. They landed back inside, this time in the main foyer, still invigorated.

"Okay, that was awesome." Miguel laughed.

"And you know what else?" Felicity added,

"What?"

"You've always wanted to be a king, right? You can do that and more! You'll be respected. You'll be able to take revenge against all who have wronged you. And best of all, you'll have me as your queen." She explained.

The possibilities danced through the vampire dog's head. Slowly but surely, his heart and mind started to give in to the temptation. Suddenly, the doors opened up as a group of vampires marched up to them, bowing out of respect.

"What brings you here?" Felicity asked. "And what do you have there?"

"Lady Felicity, Lord Miguel, we have captured someone who wishes to overthrow you." One of them explained.

Within a few seconds, two other vampires ushered in a certain blue bespectacled owl, throwing her onto the floor in front of them

"How were you able to escape?" Felicity questioned.

"I have my ways." Athena replied with narrowed eyes before she noticed Miguel. "Miguel, what has she done to you?"

"I just helped him improve himself a little, so to speak." Felicity chuckled cheekily.

"Well, whatever the case, you can still help to turn things back to normal." Athena said.

Suddenly, she was caught off guard when she heard him say one simple phrase:

"No, I don't think I will."

Athena couldn't believe what she was hearing. Felicity, meanwhile, smirked triumphantly. Her plan had worked. The vampire cat had her new mate under spell.

"W-what do you mean?" Athena stammered.

"Why would I give up all of this? Especially since Felicity will be right by my side as my queen." Miguel said, slinging his arm around her shoulders and pulling her close.

Still horrified by what he said, Athena was dragged away. Who knows what they'd do to her? Back with the vampire couple, the two held each other's paws as they gazed deeply at the other.

"I knew you'd come around." The cat giggled.

She continued to giggle foe a few seconds until they turned into chuckles. Then into cackles. Miguel started to catch on and started to laugh along with her until their laugher became nothing short of evil, boisterous, and maniacal. There was no stopping them now.
