Sometimes the lives of earth’s creatures are preordained to intertwine. Sometimes coincidences happen and what appears to be fate takes place. The universe has ways of making sure that no one figures it out.

            Death brings about many changes. Dying and failing to fade from existence is usually a major culture shock, especially for those who lived in a time when electricity was unheard of and innocent people who had the misfortune of being at the wrong place at the wrong time were burned at the stake. Becoming damned, an undead creature of the night forced to feed off blood was a frightening change in those days. However, upon his change, the laws of the human world no longer tied him down and he was free to enjoy an indulgent life, before disappearing into a life of solitude, away from 3the world of to living and the dead.

            In these modern times it is still a shock to become an undead, even with America’s steady population of gothic vampire wannabes, the realization that these creatures exist is frightening.

            In the mind of every small child is the knowledge that these creatures exist. By the time adolescences is reached only the paranoid are still afraid of what is lurking under their bed.

            Our protagonist was never afraid as a child. Her parents had comforted her mind into a sort of oblivion, so that she believed nothing could hurt her. It was funny that she believed that, because her parents did not. They lived in a constant fear that she would one day be drawn into a world where nights creatures where a dangerous reality. Their fears where proved true when their daughter, barely four, was recruited to become a hunter of the undead.

            And time passed. The vampire remained perpetually young, forever maintaining the appearance he had had when he was twenty, and the girl quickly grew up in the fourteen years, hating the world and all the creatures in it. Then the time came, the time when fate, luck, or the preordained cosmic plan for the universe kicked in. the lives of hundreds were altered with one death. For her he was just a nameless vampire, she killed him, he simply ceased to exist, and that was that. For him however, this death symbolized the loss of a mentor, his dark father had been killed, and it was only a matter of time before he took revenge on the murderer.
