The Tales of A Vampire

C2- Dr. Tiffany Brent

Carlos's POV

"So what is the relation of this Tales of A Vampire in abductions and murders cases that we are facing now?" I asked him.

"It is related I think because I remember there is a prophecy that a Supreme power will emerge again that will end the evil and restore the peaceful living of each creature. And besides, the way each victim loses their blood and heart is related to the prophecy." He said

"What do you mean?" I asked, my brows met.

" Regarding this, I am not sure. All I know is that it is in the book Tales of A Vampire." He said.

"A book? You mean 'Tales of A Vampire' is a book?" I asked him.

"Yes. It's an ancient book. It's not only a tale but it's a written tale. And I remember that it includes the history, the past, the present, and the future of a vampire world. My grandma said that it is a powerful book that no one can touch because the moon goddess itself created it and sealed it with the assistance of the Elder witches and wizards she assigned to write histories of the past, present, and future." He said. What he said is more interesting. So I inquire again to him. This kid has lots of loads.

"So where is this book now?" Where we can find it?" I asked.

" That's the problem chief. My grandma said that after the moon goddess sealed it vanished together with the Supreme Elders of witches and wizards" He said.

"Whhhaaattt?" I said shockingly. He nodded.

"So how can we know to solve these cases we face? I think if your story is accurate, that book is also known for its solutions. Maybe there is a written there of the a*******n and missing heart of the body. Don't you think so?" I asked him.

" I also think about that sir." He said.

"How we can find it and unsealed it." I rubbed my brows in between.

"All I know chief as a human, we cannot unseal the book. I think this book is ancient and powerful since it has the power of the moon goddess combined with the Elders of witches and wizards so it is right to think that only those who have extraordinary power can unseal that book and this I think maybe is the key to find the book." What he said makes sense. Then I remember someone.

"Ok. I got it. So zip your mouth about this matter if you don't want to go to a mental hospital and let's make this a secret, ok?" I told him.

"Yes sir. But sir, another problem we must consider is since the extinction of the Supreme King and his bloodline it is impossible to find the book and unseal it because I think the Supreme is so powerful that they can, maybe they can find and unseal the book. This is just my theory, anyway. And they were gone a long time ago" He said. I stop for a moment. What he said might be true again but my heart disagrees. I believe there is another way. I thought and also believe that these crimes are related to the prophecy and that book. So I must find that book by hook or by crook. I must uncover this mystery. I sighed.

" Ok. Go now. I will see what I can do." I command him. He follow after he saluted me and I gave him the go signal. I dialed my best friend's number. Where is she now, this time?

After I called Tiffany and we have a short chit-chat, I immediately booked a round-trip ticket to Norway. I informed her that my arrival will be on the 22nd of September.

Tiffany's POV

After I received a call from Carlos he informed me that he will come on the 22nd of September. This will the autumn month and a rainy season in Norway. I live in Odda for ten years, as I said to Carlos. Odda is one hour and twelve minutes away from Oslo airport or 79.3 Km.

Odda is a town in Ullensvang Municipality in Vestland, the country of Norway. I love the scenery here and the cold season. I traveled here from Seinajoki, Finland. Though I like to stay in Finland (which I also love this place) the people there will be suspicious of me why I am not getting old. It's a secret that other creatures like me must be hidden from humans.

I'm living on Earth for nearly a millennium. I am 893 years old to be exact. I am the heiress in the Kingdom of Cainite also known as Kindred or Vampire Clan. Because I am a Damphyre (Half-human and Half Vampire) I can stand against the sun and my blood is special in that, I'm immune from sun rays.

The painful memory of my childhood began to flow through my memory. When I was nine years old, there was chaos in our Kingdom. A war broke out. The Anarchs (the rebels among the kindred/vampire, with no respect for the elders) and traitors raised a rebellion against my father. It was the saddest memory I had. My father died protecting me.

My human mother was a queen who escaped with me. Thus, for centuries we hid. I remember how one of the Elder councils sealed my smell and said to me while we run for our lives, "You are weak as of now my princess. Let's hide. Don't use your power so that the enemy will not know where we are. Just endure so that your father's sacrifice will not be in vain. Someday when you are strong enough, get back to the throne and free us. Do you understand, my princess?" He advised me as I stopped crying and wanted to use one of my gifts to save my father but his advice made me stop.

I looked at Elder Hatt's eyes and saw his pleading eyes in mists of blood. I looked again at our castle which was slowly fading in my eyes as we run for our lives. I felt my mother hug me while she sniffed. I only realized that my mother was controlling her cries. Who wouldn't be if your mate was in danger and you have to keep your child safe? I lifted my spirit and pulled myself from agony and misery and made myself brave for my mother. And I looked again to my mother who is grieving in silence. She was human and there was nothing she can do on this matter.

Then I asked Cassandra the Elder witch, " Let's endure these grievances in our hearts. Let's go to Hellas. It's hard to fly and run for our lives. Open a portal for us to go there." I said to her with a serious face.

Cassandra smile at me and said, "Yes. Your majesty." She bowed her head before she opened a portal for us to go to Hellas so that the enemy has no time to capture us and we can preserve our energy, especially my mother who was human and weak. I was startled when I heard my name called by the speaker. And it stopped the flow of my memory from the past.

"Etterlyser Dr. Brent. Fortsett til legevakten! (Calling for Dr. Brent. Please proceed to Emergency Room!)" As the speaker calls my attention. I drop my can of coke when I heard my name-calling. Good thing that I finished already my food earlier.

I immediately rushed to the emergency room. I am a surgeon. My brows furrow when I see the big scratch on the chest of the patient.

"Sanitize the wound." As I check his eyes using an ophthalmoscope. I was surprised at how his eyes refracted from the ophthalmoscope. It is amiss with this man. As I checked the scratches on his chest and bruises, the result... it's not good. I also noticed the two holes in her left neck.

We managed to treat his wounds and bruises and tried to retrieve his life. Although, I know when this man survives, things will not be as used to be before. His life will be changed eventually. I pray that he must not survive, he should be dead than to be alive.

"Dr. Brent, are you going home now?" Dr. Eivind Larsen's voice caught my attention. I turned around to face him while I put my bag on my shoulder.

"Hi, Dr. Larsen. Yes. I'm going home." I said to him.

"Can I drive you off to your house?" Dr. Larsen said.

"Oh, I have my car. Maybe next time." I said and smiled at him.

"Oh. Ok, maybe next time." He said.

"By the way, how's Mr. Olsen?" I asked.

"Good thing he was survive." He replied.

"Oh! What unlucky man he is." I murmured.

"What did you say?" Dr. Larsen asked.

"Oh! Nothing. I just said that good thing he survived." I said to him.

Hours passed this man survived, what an unlucky man he is. I check my wristwatch it says 8:00 p.m. Before midnight Mr. Olsen, the man who I treated a while ago with scratches, bruises, and bites on his neck will turn out to be a fledgling ( a newly created vampire). I sighed and walk towards my car in the parking lot. I have to hurry to my house so that I can come back again here to the hospital. Fledgling is very dangerous to humans because they can't control their hunger or thirst for blood. And this will cause more fledglings if not supervised carefully. I wonder who is his Sire ( a parent-creator of a vampire either he is a male or female form)?

When I reached my house: I cooked dinner, and eat. Then I take a hot shower to relax my muscles and body. I have no time to use the bathtub for now because I don't want to drift into sleep easily. It's my habit. Sometimes I sleep while I am soaking in the bathtub. After I took a bath, I keep my hair dry and take black jeans, an apple green long sleeves shirt, and a black parka jacket. I wear my boots.

I brushed my hair and ponied it in high. I used compact powder on my face and use lipgloss for my lips.

I check the time it was sixty minutes before midnight. Mr. Olsen will experience the excruciating pain of becoming a fledgling his entire life. I need to rush now.
