Spain,Valencia 1670 8th month
It had started as whispers in the dark killings in the night they called them 'demons' I could barely believe it but my skepticism and curiousty in me made it so I had to be sure of this.
In the last month there were murders in Valencia and travelers and adventures from other towns would come to our inns and warn us about the 'demons of the night' cruel creatures that killed for sport in the night and had been terrorising the city for almost a year now.
"and why am I only hearing of this now?"I asked with intrigue.
The man with a green like cape like he was some hero said in a quiet voice while drinking his ale "because they cover it up for the past year loads of people have gone missing relatives of others and cheiftains in villages but people seem to have no recollection of the memories of them."
The man finished drinking his ale as he said "this city is dangerous the demons will come and only more will follow leave if you don't want to die and my stay here will be mandatory I bid you goodbye sir."the man said as he bowed his head in a respectful gesture and left the inn leaving me dumbstruck at what he had said.
One of the innkeepers eyed me and said "crazy stories, sir fanatics that's all it is."
The man said while cleaning a glass that was already polished.
I bought my fingers to my chin."perhaps?or perhaps not.if this is true we must be cautious and find a way to deal with these demons of the night."
"You can't be serious s-
The man was about to speak but I cut him off as my 6,6 figure towered over his and my eyes glanced onto his.
"Did that sound like the ramblings of a crazy person?think about it."
I said as I left the inn leaving the innkeeper dumbstruck.
and so on the 1st month of the new year 1671.They came the demons of the night but the town was not prepared.
I was 22 years old and had one of the most famous caravans in the town I had a business deal Tomorow where I would go to Cadiz and speak with another powerful tradesman.my knights also doubled from 26 to 32 as I slept blissfully the whole night.
Standing at 6,6 at 22 with a lean muscular physique and a master at swordsmanship many feared me in the town even in the city rumours of a giant like tradist with amazing swordsmanship spread like wildife but?
That was it there where rumours and people in this age only believed what they saw they were tricksters most had to do what they had to do to survive but they were more prone to manipulation.
and even the women that's right women?I was mentally mature but I had to have my fun here and there right?there weren't many brothels here suprisingly which is one of the reasons I'm going on my 'buisness trip ''but purely that.a man has to satisfy his needs does he not?
just ask I was about to sleep I heard screams from outside.
*AHHHHH*
*CRUNCH*
Multiple screams came from outside I rolled the curtains to the side and looked to see nothing but darkness.
But then heard screams from the other side I knew something was not right it was night time.demons?something in my mind told me I was crazy but another part told me otherwise.
I went downstairs and grabbed my sword of the rack on the wall.
"GUARDS!ANYONE?!"
I couldn't find them shit where are they?Carlos?antonio?WHERE THE FUCK ARE THEY.
then I felt it a whoosh like someone was sprinting around me moving with flash like speed and then more screams from outside.
I ran outside and-
"AHHHH!NO NO PLEASE SOMEBODY HELP ME AHH-
*SNAP*
I hollered in terror at the scene as I tried to stay as silent as possible.
"Quite revulting these lot are aren't they?I mean why stop here on our road ahead?nothing exiciting!we need a bigger city!and carrying all those coffins is a pain!"
and then again another man appeared out of nowhere with a flash dark black streaks coming down from his eyes his hair in a slight braid and his eyes emotionless as blood smeared his lips.
"Perhaps,Niklaus if you were more careful in the east perhaps we wouldn't have had to dagger Kol again?and big city's attract to much attention father will track us soon enough we must change our pattern!"
The blonde haired man sighed "well,I guess it is a pity tell the witches to move the coffins discretely for now.we will stay here for a few days until we find a caravan perhaps leading to a shi-
"No!we can't Niklaus we must change our ways father knows our patterns Kol has been to gluttonous and greedy in the east and even dragged our sister with him!we must get a ship and set sail but we mustn't attract attention!"
"Fi-
Just then a branch moved both the blonde haired man and the braided haired men glanced over there.
"Oh,how interesting!"
Just as Lucas widened his eyes he was raised up into the ground and smashed against the tree.
"Who are you?"the man asked as fangs showed from his face.
I refused to talk all the knights massacred on the ground the blood it was all to much.
"I said WHO ARE YOU!"black veins streamed from his eyes as the blonde haired man smirked while licking the blood of himself in a freakish way.
"I..I am Lucas…L..L..Lucas de la vega!I own this land and this mansion!"
"Oh really?tell me Lucas what can you offer me?"
The man said as he looked into my eyes suddenly I felt compelled to tell him everything.
"I..I can give you power!resources I know what you are.demons of the night I can make it so you blend in."
The man raised his eyebrows as he loosened the grip on my neck and asked "very well how?"
"I have contacts..I can get you whatever you want ships caravans cover your tracks!you can disguise as nobles and we can have them killed quickly and disguise yourself as others!"
The man loosened his grip then intrigued even more as the blonde haired man grew impatient.
"Brother…don't entertain your food for i shall not!"
Nicklaus said as he pushed aside the ramblings of the man in a flash he bared his fangs and bit into Lucas like a beast.
"Niklaus!"
"Ahhhh!"
Lucas groaned in pain as he fell to the ground and gripped the side of his neck.
The man gripped the blonde haired man dragging him back.
Then he bit into his wrist and forced it down Lucas mouth.
Klaus looked on in anger and confusion.
"Brother what is thi-
"Nicklaus please I urge you this boy is powerful and smart we will use him and his resources gain a ship and cross the sea and leave no trace so father will not find us but you must trust my plan!"
The blonde haired man grumbled and said "very well, but let me finish my dinner."
He then looked toward the rest of the houses as his fangs bared once again.
The braided hair man nodded as he looked down and snapped lucases neck.
'I hope you can be of use to me.'
