The Vampire Project 38 The Third Generation Vampires

Harry's really amaze upon gazing on the captured vampire. The wounds in his body's already gone not even a scar left. They tied him up using silver chains that have thorns which would bury into his skin if he moves. Harry extracts a blood sample from him and studied it carefully. He also ask Sofie if she'll let him get some of her blood as well just to compare the two samples. Hours of tests and verifying every detail, Harry finally figured it out.

"We've got a serious problem." He's sweating all over his face as he runs towards Queen Sofie.

"What's the rush Harry?"

"Well, I'm totally sure of it now. Their blood doesn't really matches yours exactly but looking back at Ara's situation, I remembered correctly how the serum in her blood stabilizes when Tyler lets her drink his blood."

"What do you mean? I'm confused."

"The six of you which Carolina describes and the second generation vampires have more control over the serum. Which means all six of you are incomparable to the first generation."

"Wait, there's seven of us."

"Ara's not included. She belongs to the third generation vampires as well as Volton's army."

"This isn't right. She went through all the pains with us."

"Yes that's true but her case that time wasn't stable at all. Having the blood of the second generation helps them stabilize the serum in their bodies. To make it more specific. The six of you are pure blooded vampires. And what's more surprising is that, I tried mixing my blood with yours and the result is truly unexpected. Your blood devours mine at first but then when I added the mixed blood to my blood it ended up with the same structure as the third gens."

"Which means we can convert humans directly into vampires---"

"Exactly. Sucking blood from your victim then making them drink your blood changes them directly. But it takes time for your blood to settle down inside the victim's body. At first they may lose control but slowly they'll get over it."

"Destroy any evidences of this new discovery. We must be very careful. You sure the captured didn't here anything."

"I put him to sleep while I was working I'm sure he doesn't know anything."

"To be more sure that a word won't even spread. I'll just end his life."

"Sounds brutal but it's up to you."

"Let's inform Slacovich and the others first. As for Ara, hope she won't lose self confidence when she hears the knews."

"Okay. I'll burn all the papers that I take notes for and then be right back with you."

Back at the Sun University, all building are almost finish and so as the underground headquarters they constructed below the University. Slacovich and the rest are the gymnasium to have an audience with all the recruited hunters. From students to professors as well as businessmen across the the country. The attacks of the vampires encouraged them to join having different reasons but ending on one main objective; to secure the safety of the human race. As Carolina's discussing basic infos on the enemy's ident.i.ty, Slacovich's phone interrupts. He answered the call and heard Sofie's voice on the other side.

"h.e.l.lo?"

"Hey how's it going in there?"

"Well new discovery has been made. I'll give the phone to Harry." Harry receives the phone and tells every detail about the third gen vampires. Slacovich's quite stunned with the news and finds it harder to deal with.

"This isn't good. Having third gen vampires as an army if enemies will make everything difficult for us."

"Third gen vampires?" Carolina overhear him and stands beside him. Slacovich decided to put it in loud speaker so everyone can hear it. Even the recruits are a bit petrified upon hearing the news of their enemies ident.i.ties. Nicholson can see fear and hesitation in their eyes so he steps up and began talking.

"Young men and women, if you fear now just by hearing what they are, how can you fight back? Remember why you came here in the first place. We will never enter a battlefield empty handed. We will train and equip you all with the best anti-vampire weapons. But before you can progress, you must have strong will to survive and the will to fight back for the sake of your loved ones and yourselves. This is a matter of life and death. If you hold back and stays in the corner waiting for someone to save you then your just waiting for death. Why not be confident of yourselves and stand up. Fight the evil and reclaim the peacefulness we all ones had." His words of wisdom reaches the depth of the hunters heart.

"We are fighting against vampires yet the Demonfire family are all vampires. How can we be at ease?" One of the recruits stands up and stares at them waiting for an acceptable answer.

"Yes, we are vampires. Yet our hearts are completely human. We feel sadness, sorrows, happiness and fear. We value what we were before and not what we are now. Putting the interest of the humans first before ours, giving you all the details about our weaknesses as a vampire makes us very open for any attacks from you. We put our trust in all of you. We also have our loved ones we want to protect. If your still uncertain about us then you are free to think what you like. Feel free to leave and we won't force you to fight with us." Slacovich stares back at him with unwavering heart.

"All good. I'll pledge my loyalty to you guys. I'll help in any way I can." He then sits back with a sense of relief.

"Guys, what's more the third gen vampires aren't as deadly as the first gen that attacked the city previously. The third gen has a sense of humanity within them. They will only act on what they're told and what they believe in. All we have to do is to defend ourselves first cause for sure they're gonna strike us anytime. We must be prepared for it when the time comes. That's why we're rus.h.i.+ng the construction of the headquarters so that we can settle down and start on our training." Carolina stands beside Nicholson. They can see the determination in their eyes.

"Also, we have options. But we need to discuss the details very carefully. I'll fill you in ones we're back." Harry speaks on the other side.

"Yeah, I'll leave matters to my mom here in UK. She's gonna help us from here and will take over the custody of the burned down laboratory. By then we'll head back." Sofie seems excited to go back.

"That's good to hear. With the two of you here it'll be much more convenient for us to stick together." Li speaks up.

"By the way, Queen Sofie there's one thing only you can do to help with the training of the recruits." Nicholson walks near the phone.

"I think I know what you mean. But I don't really know how to communicate with them yet. I've heard your a historian, maybe you can help me with the information that you have when I get back."

"I'll see what I can do to help you with that. As the new Queen, the heart always matters for them. They will never oppose to the Queen."

"Let's just wait and see." Sofie and Harry hangs up and tends to their daily routine. At the gymnasium, the recruits were given forms for them to fill up. Li and Tyler sets up the body scanner in the center and one by one the recruits steps in. The scanner gives complete detail of the body structure of the recruit. It will be recorded into their personal files and will be coded accordingly for their I.D cards. Also it serves as a detector of unwanted visitors. They filled up every corner of the University with senors and scanners installed in every cctv. To secure the safety of the people inside and not to leak any information outside. They also encourage the recruits to install the same thing in their homes. It's very costly but the Demonfire will shoulder half of it while the businessmen who joined will also share some of the expenses. The University accepts students who doesn't know anything about their secret society. The fees in going into the Sun University is very expensive that only the rich can afford to study. The hunters are all scholars of the school and will be staying in the dormitories together with those students that are far away from home.

Volton h.e.l.lgazer have them followed all the time. He knows they're up to something but not quite sure what it is. He deployed one men to sneak into the University and gather information for him. At the headquarters, the security room detected a intruder coming from the east side of the arts building. The camera captures the intruders movement even with top speed. It's heading towards Dormitory A which is currently occupied by girl recruits. Cla.s.ses will start a few months away so having no student in the dorm is very easy to deal with such intruders. But to train the hunters, they set up holograms of students staying with them. The hunters were told about it and will treat them like real people to make them act accordingly to the situation. The alarm on the University is a bit different, it will only alert the hunters within the area. They all have special watches that will alert them everytime there's danger coming their way. The girl hunters reaches out to their silver daggers which the Demonfire gave them as a token on being a full pledged hunters. This is just their first encounter in a real fight with a vampire. The training they have for 4 months will be tested out that very night. In just two months the University will be accepting enrollees, protecting their roommates and the other students are their top most priority. This night will measure their alertness, their skills and the knowledge they had while training. Li and Ara are on standby near Dormitory A in case the hunters can't handle the intruder. Tyler keeps an eye of his movements from the security room. The guys are also in standby, they can't enter the girl's dorms. It will only cause panic when the students see them inside their dorms. Carolina and the other women professors are on guard, they also stay at the girl's dorm to make sure of their security.
