Chapter 10

"Mara, Wake up! Who sleeps like this!" Violet tapped Mara harder to wake her up. "Violet! How did you get here?" Mara jumped up in fear. "I live here moron…why are you in the closet?" Violet said pulling her up. "What do you mean?" She ran to the widow you and saw that the air was finally clear. "Oh they are gone finally thank goodness." She said in relief. "That's why you're in here, good for you, I was directly attacked." Violet "By bats? No way!" Mara said in disgust. "You have no idea b." Violet said pulling off her clothes. "I guess your flight was postponed then" Mara tiredly said. "Postponed and I'm not going to Maldives anymore." Violet sighed. "Why? You need it babe!" Mara said in concern. "What I need now is a warm shower, food and liquor." Violet dumped her stuff and proceeded to the bathroom. "I know this mood. Am I sensing heartbreak?" Mara voiced faded from the bathroom. "Leave me alone!" Violet said in a lowly shaky voice. Violet took her bath and locked herself in her room with a bottle of vodka, feeling very depressed and drinking. Her phone rang and it was Luca calling. "Hey pumpkin, how are you? I tried calling you but there's been no reception. Are you safe?" Luca loaded her with questions. "I'm good Luca, I'm home. Are you safe?" Violet asked. "Yes I'm safe. So when are you resuming your vacation?" "I'm done with that Luca." She said. "Alright, I'll stop by tomorrow ciao." Luca said with a bit of relieved as he heard that she is not going on Vacation with Chris again. Violet sat quietly in her room hoping that maybe steel will visit to make her feel better again. But she knew that she was asking. She thought for a second that Steel might have something to do with the bats invasion in the city. She actually sat there waiting for steel to come till she slept off. She woke up the next morning with her head banging like a drum. She had received several missed calls from Chris apologizing and asking for a little more time. Violet walked to the kitchen to get something to use for her hangover. She looked through her window and saw that the city was a bit calm after what happened the night before. People were still scared to go too far in case of another bat invasion. Soon she heard a knock on the door. She wonders who it could be so early on Saturday morning after an invasion. "Hey sugar tits!" Luca raised her above the ground. "Wow you're here so early." Violet giggled "Put me down monkey!" she struggled to land on the ground. "I knew you'd be scared to death, that's why I came early. Look I brought food" He raised the rubber bags. "Did you drink?" Luca gave her a stern look. "Yes I'm hungover." She replied with a lowly voice. "Uh who drinks in a storm? You're a special breed." He said laughing hysterically. Violet was glad that Luca was around. She told him all about her airport experience and her being partially done with Chris. "Well I'm glad that you see the light now. My advice is that if the divorce is not official, don't take him back unless it's just for the sex." Luca rolled his eyes. "Alright sir." Violet said as she stuffed her mouth with taco. "What about the hot guy that visited you at the library the other day, err...Damien!" Luca asked. "Oh Damien…he is great!" She smiled nervously. Luca looked at her like he was longing for more gist "So are you guys going to date or what?" "Well we're are still getting to know each other and I want to take it slow" Violet lied unprovoked. *** Steel was still very furious about the event that took place on his territory. He kept pacing around while Gay prepared him a cup. He was with Dominique as she casts spells to find the root of where the enemies erupted from. "Whoever this is, he seems to possess great powers or at least has a powerful person behind him because they leave no traces behind, and controlling the weather? That's is something to be scared of." "I should have followed them." Steel paced impatiently. "No, that world have been a foolish idea." Dominique interrupted. "Then what do we do? They are obviously coming back." Steel said. "Of course they will, but I think they will take their time. You see how they fled? They know that you are something stronger. You are Alucard Steel and not just anybody. It will take more than an army of bats to bring you to your knees. Unless that is not what they want." Dominique said curiously. Steel went quiet for a moment. "You don't think they are here for…" Steel face lightened up "How would they know that it is here?" Dominique said in shock. "Only a few people know about it, if they have suspicions that it might be here, we need to change its hiding place immediately. And if your enemies have the back up of a strong sorcerer we need to back it up too." "Ok so where do we keep it now." He asked. "Somewhere that only you and I know and the only reason I will know is because I have to bind it with a powerful spell." The Star stone was an ancient stone owned by Dracula in his early years. The stone was passed down to his descendants after his disappearance. A box containing Dracula's most cherished possession was found in his library by his descendant after and was hidden safely to avoid getting into the wrong hands because of the power it possesses. The Star stone has the ability to alter time, change, and the biggest mistake is letting the stone get into just any hands. The stone was passed down to different lineage to keep it safe. Anyone who possess the stone has the power to control the world and its inhabitants. The Star stone is a stone of time mixed with the blood of the first No one knows the true origin of the Star stone but rumor has it that it was stolen from the underworld by the first vampires to walk the earth to be used to control and reshape the world as they please. The first time it was used was after Vampires came to the earth hungry to feast and turn humans daily and this started an apocalypse. At this rate, a lot of hungry vampires both old and new roamed the earth leaving only Few humans remaining. The humans were not strong enough to fight the vampires off so the vampires conquered the earth. They didn't know what they had done until they realized that they had nothing to feed on anymore. They started settling for animals, both wild and domestic. It was a frustrating time. They began to fight for food and some started searching for newer places to find food. Count Alucard saw this knew that the vampires would end the world at this rate which they were going. So he made use of the star stone to turn back time, and correct the mistake which was made. He eradicated a lot of vampire, brought the humans back, left only a few vampires on earth and. He controlled the feeding system by himself and hired. This way they were able to eat without whipping off the earth. The second time that the stone was used, was during a great battle between Vampire and were wolves, a war broke out between the vampires and the werewolves. The Werewolves won the war but the last vampires who had possession of the Star stone was able to turn back time multiple times to practice to win the war and that is the only reason why so the vampires were able to conquer them. The werewolves heard about this stone and have even since fought the vampires to get it. The werewolves are not the only ones interested in the Star stone but also fellow rivalry vampires. So the location has been kept very safe and only a few people know its location. "Ok I'll keep it with you till I find somewhere new" "You have to be fast about it, we can't take any risks". The Star stone is left in a sacred room in his manor where only Steel has the access. The doors and walls of the house is coated with titanium and Silver. Which in impenetrable by any vampire or werewolf. For him to get it out of the safe room he'll need a human or a fortification but that wasn't his worry. Steel thought he had done a good job keeping the Star stone safe and secure. He thought deeply of where he could keep the Star stone that will avoid getting into the Hands of his rival. He knew that he had to keep it where he or no one would ever imagine. He even had the wildest thought of making an Incision in his body and keeping it in but that is what any powerful person would do he thought.
