Hardes:
I don't like James one bit

he's up to no good

I open my eyes and I'm back in the same room that smells like perfume but this time I can make out everything in the room like my eyes had grown accustomed to the dark.

"You're awake" I hear that sinister voice

"Who are you again?" I ask, can't really remember his name

"It's James, and Draka if I may?" He points towards my head.
I just nod and he placed his long fingers on my head as he massages it a bit

"Huh, seems something or someone is blocking your memories and that's why you probably can't remember anything" James analyzed

"I don't really know who you are or what's this place is but I need to get my friend and myself back home" I said angrily

"But you know this is your home, you belong in the darkness child and those things are not your parents" he said in a very serious tone.

"I don't believe a word you're saying" I was totally confused

"Draka, you are a direct descendant of Count Dracula, your bloodline runs pure to his majesty and he personally requested you be brought here" James said eyeing me for any reaction

"What?" I was totally lost here

"Still can't remember, anyway let me jog your memory a bit. Your father comes from an ancestral bloodline of one of the first Vampires but as an ignorant youth, he fell in love with girl from a family of vampire hunters and got her pregnant. After her family discovered what had transpired, they got rid of your father and your mother ran away. She died during childbirth but after years of search we've discovered you Draka" James explained

"I don't understand, so you're saying I'm a vampire?" I was bewildered

"Not exactly, you're part vampire and part vampire hunter which is human" he said like it was totally normal

"You're joking right, this must be one messed up dream or a prank" I chuckled dryly trying to wrap my mind around this whole thing

"Oh really?" He asked with a smirk on his face

And in that moment Popoola came into the room with fangs, like his canines were so long I thought he looked like a dog and they were dripping red liquid.

"You summoned, my Prince" he bowed

"Yes, your friend here doesn't believe vampires exist" James laughed and Popoola joined in

"Same with me Uche but after the Prince turned me and now I see the light and so would you" Popoola said grinning

"I don't know what you did to him but we are getting out of here and back home, Popoola let's go" I said grabbing my friend's hand and making my way towards the staircase.

After walking with Popoola by my side, we approached the ground floor and there were so many people here, some were students who were reported missing. I could see Mathew and the rest of our students from our school.

"Popoola what's going on here" I asked noticing they looked so calm and organized and as walked closer they seem to bow down their heads and give way for me.

"Blood recognizes blood" James answered

"But how-" he was upstairs, it was impossible for him to be down here except there was a hidden elevator or something.

"Walk with me Draka" it came more of a command than a request. "You see, Draka there is a war coming and his Highness has seen to it you fight alongside us and defeat the Helsings once and for all" James said with conviction

"I don't know what you're talking about and I'm pretty sure I can't kill a fly" I said noticing there was no way I could be a vampire

"Don't worry, that's why you're here. You're already a vampire although partly and due to your human nature it has been subdued all we need do is to wake it up and that's it" he said with a grin

"Wake it with what?" I asked

"Blood of course" James said with that sinister grin of his

"Now I know you are crazy, I don't know how you managed to kidnap everyone here for this freak show but I'm not gonna stick around for it" I said

"We are building an army and right now we have soldiers ready to fight in all over the 36 states and beyond its borders. In a matter of time this war would be over." James explained further

And the next I know I heard a thud and I fell to the cold floor like a heap of rice.

"How do you feel" I could hear the voice in the dark as I slowly opened my eyelids and found the darkness appealing to my eyes.

"Powerful, I feel I-" I couldn't express the energy I felt in my bones

"We fed you a little blood and from what I can see it's doing its job" James commented

"You what?" I raised my hands at him and he levitated off the ground like a ragdoll.
Realising I was able to raise a whole man up, I dropped my hands down and he fell to the floor with a light thump

"The power you possess, and that's just the beginning of it. We start your training immediately" James smiled but he had this rage in his eyes

"You said something about my memories, why can't I remember things" I asked

"You were little and his Lordship kept an eye over you but it seems someone did something to make you forget and had you given to a family we didn't know off until of recent and like I said blood recognizes blood" he said with a smirk "and Draka don't try that again" he jammed the door with a little bit of force but his hands never touched the beautifully carved mahogany wood.

So within these few days I've discovered my parents are not really my parents, my mind was manipulated and best of all I'm a vampire.
