A Vampire's Tale

The world of Norvak isn't for the weak. A land where might makes right isn't for the faint of heart. A land where different species battle for supremacy and the defeated either enslaved or exterminated. The continent of Revix has witnessed the rise and fall of many species. With a relatively peaceful period being established a little over ten thousand years ago. The result of this peace is the separation of different species. The land of humans, Cyntros, covered most of the central part of the continent. The lands in the north, Aterix, gave shelter to the elves and other creatures of light. The south held the creatures of darkness and it's original name, Rimul, long forgotten. A land that the humans had long dubbed, The Darklands. To the east was an endless desert where the banished and hated lay their bones. A place where nature threatens both predator and prey. Yet most feared of all was the west, a land of giants and titans. Where mountains vanish and valleys form from the movements of it's inhabitants. On the edges of The Darklands, the greed of men sends a group of hunters to their demise. The lone survivor, Milas, is turned into one of the ruling species of The Darklands, a vampire. With a past clouded in mystery and an uncertain future, Milas does all he can to survive. With the potential to become more than he could have ever imagined, Milas faces all threats that come his way. "The right to live is a privilege that only the powerful have access to. I don't appreciate others having that privilege over my life. And I'll do what I must to earn my right!"

32 You've Got Guts Dude

Milas was in shock of the results of the punishment. He was used to the concept of having his ass handed to him but the fact that the beating wouldn't stop till both of them gave up really pissed him off. Worst of all was that most of his wounds came from Veruca and not Claus. Milas could clearly remembered the moment it began. He had been in the middle of dodging Claus' punch when he saw that Veruca had her back to him.

Milas endured the follow up fist to his ribs from Claus and charged at Veruca. Any other man would feel bad about blind siding a girl but Milas treated all enemies equally. Veruca's battle instincts warned her of the threat and she instinctively ducked. This gave Milas an unexpected opportunity as his original plan was to knee her in the gut. Her delicate face collided with the fast moving knee and produced a sickening sound.

Veruca had hit the wall and everyone froze except for Milas. He vented his frustrations on Aileen by punching her while she was dazed. Milas prepared himself to receive Claus' rage for kneeing his sister in the face. He faced him with his hands ready to block but he saw that Claus was backing away. Milas knew that something had to be wrong so he turned to look at Veruca.

"You broke my theeth!!!" Veruca screamed as she stared at the bloody teeth on the ground. Blood poured from her gums, filling her mouth and covering her chin. It seemed like her front teeth took most of the damage making her speak funny. Milas wondered why she was overreacting about the loss of teeth when they can grow back easily. "You'll pay for thith!!"

Veruca screamed and charged at him. Her eyes were glowing red and the hardened blood on her arms was glowing. Milas was too slow to dodge and an uppercut launched him into the sky. Veruca had strength that seemed unsuitable for her body to posses. Milas was on the receiving end and he thought that his head had been ripped off his body.

Milas recovered and looked up at the scary girl from his position on the floor. The terror in his eyes intensified when he saw the material on her arms bulging at the knuckles. The result of the bulging was three, finger long, red blades that seemed to naturally grow from her body. Milas immediately worried for his life but he wasn't the only one as Claus spoke up.

"Hey Veruca, remember that we can't kill them." Claus said and Milas quickly nodded to agree with him.

"I know ethactly how much damage thomeone can take before dying. I won't kill him but he will regret breaking my theeth." Veruca said and threw a punch at the fallen Milas. He crossed his arms to block and the blades went through his flesh nailing his arms together. Her other hand got to work on his gut leaving bloody holes and punctured organs.

Milas threw a kick to force her away but she punched it causing Milas more pain from the new wounds. He freed his arms but that meant that there was nothing protecting his chest. The right side of his chest was pummeled while the left was intentionally spared. Veruca completely avoided the area near his heart or blood crystal. She let him go and punched both of his knees till they bent awkwardly.

Aileen was glad that she was fighting Claus because unlike Milas, he couldn't hit a girl without feeling bad. Although she was getting beat up, Claus was pulling his punches and only leaving her with bruises. She was throwing a punch at him when something heavy hit her side and threw her off balance making her miss. The pain from her side was familiar as it wasn't the first time she got stabbed. Aileen met the red eyes of Veruca and saw the rage in them. She was pushed to the floor and Veruca pinned both her hands under her knees.

"You are actually the main cauthe of thith, if you hadn't athacked thath idioth in the firth plathe none of uth would be here." Veruca said as she wound her fists before unleashing them on Aileen's body. Aileen was screaming pain unlike Milas who grit his teeth when in pain. Veruca damaged Aileen in almost the exact same way. She even broke both her knees before finally leaving her in a bloody mess.

"You two better introduce yourselves or Veruca will have an excuse to continue." Claus said after he dragged both of them to the middle of the room. That was when Milas learned the name of the crazy girl that kept attacking him. The twins left the two of them lying there for a while before someone else walked in with four flasks of blood.

"I don't know which one of you it was but I think that you've learned not to hurt Veruca. I was sent by Claus to say that he asks you to forgive her for overreacting. Veruca may have a strong body but her healing is actually way below average. This is regardless of the amount of blood she takes so she is easily angered by injuries. Broken bones and lost teeth actually take her about a week to heal." The vampire was dressed in a similar uniform but his had a yellow line running across it.

Milas now remembered that the twins had a similar yellow line on their uniforms. He thought that this might have been the way to separate the second years from first years. Milas decided to find out later and focus on speeding up his healing after being fed the blood. He didn't trust Aileen and wanted to be ready incase she tried to attack him.

They simultaneously jumped away from each other and took defensive stances while startling the second year who fed them blood. The second year knew the two teenagers were about to fight so he merely distanced himself to enjoy the show. Milas dropped his guard and eased his stance.

"I know that you hate me because of that night in the forest but I won't apologize since you got your revenge. We don't have to be friends but let's put the grudge aside cause I don't enjoy getting pummeled." Milas said as he had decided to be the bigger person and end the stupid feud.

"I will only agree if you let me punch you like you punched me during the fight." Aileen didn't want to keep getting beat up because of the grudge but she was hellbent on having the last laugh.

"You hit me in the nuts and you have the guts to ask if you can punch me! I don't think you're a girl cause you got bigger balls than him." Milas said and pointed at the second year who had been listening to their conversation.

"Hey! Don't drag me into your stupid argument." The second year said with a frown on his face.

"You talk like that when you're the one asking for peace. Your arrogance will kill you before I get the chance." Aileen said and started to walk away.

"You're lucky you look beautiful because your stupidity is on another level." Milas tried to make another verbal shot before she left. It seemed to have struck a nerve as she stopped walking. "I'm giving you a chance to stop suffering but you seem to be getting pleasure from the pain. It's like you get turned on when someone beats you up. I couldn't even tell if you were screaming or moaning when Veruca was hitting you."

The last part was a complete lie just to rile her up as Milas' plan was to make it seem like she was actively attacking him. He knew that working with Aileen to beat the twins was the safest idea but he was pissed by the attacks from Aileen. Despite his taunting, Aileen just laughed.

"You almost got me there. Trying to make me attack you was pretty smart but way too obvious. If you want to get along learn how to complement others. Also, I'll think about your offer." Aileen said and headed for the door.

"Here's a compliment, nice ass." Milas told her as she was disappearing past the door.

"I've gotta hand it to you, you have guts dude." The second year said as he also left the room.
