"Greetings to you all across the nation of The Castle. I, your Queen, come today, bearing sad news. Your princess, Cybil, has become mentally ill. This has been going on for a few weeks now, since her 17th birthday she has nearly refused to eat, screamed out horrible things against this nation and it's people, and most recently she has tried to commit suicide. I know how much you all love your princess, I too, love her more than the moon loves the ocean, after all she is my daughter. But in order for her to get better she needs help outside of us. She will be sent to a hospital, where she can receive special help and assistance from doctors with extreme experience. Once she is well again, she shall return to us."
Those were the words mother spoke. Right in front of my very eyes. She had walked out onto that balcony and she had told our entire nation that I was crazy, insane, out of my mind...This. Was. A. Lie. She was the crazy one. She was the one of out her mind. She was the one who had murdered thousands of people for our race. Who were we, The Vampires, to assume that we were above mankind. To take away their homes and their lives as they knew them. Mother is wrong, mother is foolish, and mother does not understand the strength that lies within mankind. But soon she will learn. Very soon, she will learn.
----
Cybil Royal was everything expected of a vampire princess, she was elegant, generous, yet still filled with enough fire to roast her entire kingdom. For the most part however, she had done as she'd been told by her mother and father, that is, until her illness came along. A disease known as "the Sight," has infected Cybil, leaving her crazed and filled with madness. To keep her out of the eyes of the rest of the kingdom, she was locked in a tower and left there to die. But when a young boy known as Natham is brought to her for companionship, things began to change. As her senses return, so does her fire, and soon, Cybil is ready to wreak havoc.

I was walking to the grocery store when I thought some one was following me
I turned around and saw no one there so I brushed it off by the way my name is Lara and I was being followed by someone my whole life!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I WAS about to turn the corner when someone grabbed me and used their hands to cover mt mouth. I struggled and managed to push the person off and started sprinting down the street, yelling 'HELP'. I turned back to get a glance at the man who attacked me.
I saw his face and it was Der!!!
"What the hell Derek!"I shouted " I was scared shit-less that it was a kidnapper or murderer or gang member" It was NYC, who knew what happens at night and what kind of dangerous people are out there.
"Shh"he said and covered my mouth. I bit his hand and he removed his hand from my mouth.
"Ah, what was that for?" he yelled, his eyes getting darker as he pouted and rubbed his hand.
"I don't know what you're up to but you're so being dumped"I told him. He was acting crazy and it was driving me insane because he wasn't telling me anything.
He growled and ran towards him with his hands out wide to try and grab me, but I turned and kicked him in the leg as he fell to the ground.
"Ha take that I took karate" I said proudly as he was groaning. I was a black belt student. I started sprinting when I turned the corner I saw Derek again with his eyes as dark as the night sky. What happened to his blue eyes?!
"But you w-we-were- right there and n now you're here what? and w what happened to your eyes?"I kept stuttering. He seemed so brooding and dangerous and he didn't seem like the Der I knew and loved.
Before I knew it, darkness succumbed me.
