In the past the Nosferatu adhered to believed weakness and strengths of the classic vampire, but like all creatures, they began to evolve making what they are today. There a two common kinds of vampires, the born and the turned. However, there is a rare third. Usually a vampire is born of two vampires, but in some cases, a turned human will not present the changes having a latent gene that only passes on their inherited powers via reproduction. Generally Vampires possess superior speed/strength/agility/endurance/heightened senses, Shape Shifting, Bending Light, Shielding, Controlling Fog, Near Immortality and Rapid Healing. However, some have further developed abilities. Magic Breed (Vampire) - has the power to perform shadow magics, wand-less/ silent magic and absorbing outside magic. The magic breed must only feed once every month, but must also content itself by absorbing magic. These abilities usually appear in a turned human with magic potential. Psyche’s Child (Vampire) – This type of vampire has a superior mind that makes it possible for them to perform telekinesis, telepathy, past sight, clairvoyance and possessions. This vampire must feed more regularly than a normal vampire (Twice every three days). The Psyche’s child only appears in born vampires. The Necromancer (Vampire) – This type of vampire has not been seen in millenniums. They have the ability to command the spirits of the dead and demons, they can posses people, materialize ghosts, they can perform exorcisms and surprisingly enough they are miracle mind and some times body healers. They can also use all human magics and shadow magic. They are immune to silver and holy water (Every turned vampire is immune to sunlight). They are usually turned, but some are born. They only need to feed once every six months. The Incubus (Vampire) – The Incubus vampire is a vampire that depends on sexual union to grow in power. Unfortunately this may only occur between a sire and childe, in which the sire is the Incubus Vampire. When turning a human, these vampires further develop their powers and in turn share an unbreakable bond with their childe. And even if the childe is not an Incubus Vampire their own power will grow through their first sexual union. This vampire may only turn one human and will become obsessive and possessive of their childe. These vampires are both born and turned. They need only feed after turning their childe once every four months. The Ethereal (Vampire) – The ethereal vampire is often also a Magic breed or an Incubus vampire and in some cases a necromancer. And these vampires are always turned. The Ethereal, when turned gain an inhuman beauty that is like a siren’s call attracting potential mates. The ethereal vampire must hide their unnatural beauty using an unbreakable shadow magic in which the layer shadows into glamours around them. In the case in which they don’t have shadow magics they usually are forced to live only among vampires. Vampire hierarchy …   PROLOGUE: A Hero’s Loss Pierre stared blankly at the man the bog water dripping off of his skin, “Why?” he finally croaked. “Because of your beauty young one.” The red headed vampire purred stroking Pierre’s smooth pale cheek. The man was right Pierre was quite the beauty with his long silky black hair and warm light brown eyes. His white marble covered power, yet lean muscles. He was tall (6’3) and lithe with a slightly feminine look about him. His long swan-like neck, long shapely legs and delicate longer thin fingered hand contested to that. However his broad shoulders and square chin, high defined cheekbones and sharp nose opposed that notion. “You turned me into a demon because of my beauty? I am nothing but a prize to you! I wanted nothing more to live my life peacefully and yet you take death from me! You took my lover from me and then you took my humanity! You, you, you… bastard! How could you Germian?”   CHAPTER_ONE: A Dead Hero Harry’s eyes stared blankly up at the cloudless blue sky, his eyes clouded as his death came closer and closer. His blood leaving his body. His Uncle had gone too far. Dumbledore had insisted Harry go to the Dursleys for winter break being that he would not be spending the summer with them. The broken boy lay in the bloodied snow beneath him, a gun shot wound just above his heart. His life force was rapidly fading and he was bound and gagged. He lay there whimpering as the cold took him. He could faintly sense Uncle Vernon taking a seat in a lawn chair all bundled up, watching in sick fascination as Harry slowly died in the snow. Slowly Harry’s eyes began to close… Lord Vampire Alexander Noctis otherwise known as Severus Snape, Potions Adept and teacher at Hogwarts. Spy for the order of Phoenix and currently on guard duty, patrolled the neighborhood looking for suspected death eaters. It was early morning and few people had awakened. It was then he heard it as he was finishing his round, the pitiful animalistic whimper and the smell of freshly spilt blood, human blood. Hurrying over to the source of the blood he found a ghastly sight. There was a hideously fat man, who sat bundled in his warmest clothing in a law chair with a shot gun over his lap. He watched over a naked mangled human body that was breathing shallowly, slowly dying of blood loss. Coming closer he finally saw the lightning bolt scar. Whipping his wand out Severus stepped in front of the hideous man, who had just noticed him. “Who are you and what the fuck have you done?” Severus demanded heatedly. Vernon rose to his feet cocking his gun at the man, red in a face, he yelled in fury “Just doing what I should’ve done a long time ago, that freak deserved it. That little piece of shit broke our best dishes. All freaks should die. I say one down one to go.” Vernon pulled the trigger, the bullet burst from the shaft heading straight at Severus’s heart. However, before it could puncture Severus’s black clad chest, he was reflected by an invisibly shield and buried itself deep within Vernon’s bulbous gut, making the man gasp as he sank to his knees and Severus wrenched the gun out of his hands. After kicking the man repetitively in the gut, Severus turned to the broken body of the-boy-who- lived. He felt for a heart beat. Finding none he began to panic. “Shit, Shit, SHIT!” He swore, “Stupid Potter, you’re not supposed to die you idiot. Stupid, moronic boy.” Realizing he had no choice and that he had subconsciously already began to. Severus bent over the boy and stuck his sharp canines into Harry’s colorless skin of his neck, unconsciously nuzzling the boy’s neck as he finished draining every drop of the boy’s blood. Unbeknownst to Severus as he drank the boy’s blood his body began to revert to his youth and his power grew tenfold. Biting his own wrist and letting the blood flow free, he pealed back the boy’s lips and let the blood fill his mouth before messaging his throat making Harry consume the blood. The wound is Harry’s chest began to close off and spat out a bullet. Lifting his little childe Snape carried the unconscious form of Harry, towards the edge of the shields. He then apparated to Hogwarts. Carrying in the boy, he swept passed a startled Poppy. He went to his rooms and deposited the boy on his bed. Using a spell he undressed the boy and burnt his bloody rags. The severely malnourished and bloody form of Harry Potter lay before him. Fetching a wet rag from his bathroom he began to clean off the blood. Under his rag the wounds were healing at an unnatural rate and the scars that marred his skin faded and were gone. Coming to Harry’s face, Snape gently cleaned it, and Harry unconsciously leaned into his touch. Snape hypnotized by Harry’s luscious lips bent over and brushed them with his own before someone cleared their throat. Snape whirled around to face a very stern looking Dumbledore and nervous Poppy. “Severus, why did you feel the need to change Harry? The wards were not destroyed.” Growling Snape answered, “My childe was dying. The nasty fat muggle shot him. When I got to him, his heart had stopped. He wasn’t breathing. I was lucky he drank!” Eyes flashing Dumbledore asked, “What did this Muggle look like?” “He was a big, beefy man with hardly any neck, although he had quite a big mustache. He was blond and had small piggy eyes. He was sitting on a law chair watching my childe die!” “Vernon Dursley, Harry’s uncle.” Dumbledore said sourly. “Vernon Dursley? Well that’ll be on a grave stone soon enough, if not already.” “What did you do to him?” Dumbledore demanded sharply. “No laws were broken. He shot at me and it deflected off of my shields and the bullet hit him.” Dumbledore sighed in relief and then glanced at Harry. “Will Harry be alright?” Dumbledore asked. “His name isn’t Harry anymore!” Snape hissed, “You know very well as soon as his heart stops, a human is no longer. A turned vampire is renamed. It’s law.” He hissed, Snape like all vampires were very territorial over his newly turned Childe and would be for the first three months. “What is his name?” Dumbledore asked slowly. “You may call him Mico. His true name remains within the vampire community. He’ll need to be tested by the Lord Council in a month’s time. You will let us go.” Severus hissed furiously. Dumbledore just nodded. Suddenly Mico cried out in his sleep. “Go, he’s changing.” Severus said slamming the bedroom door in Dumbledore’s and Poppy’s face. “Well I never!” Poppy began, but Dumbledore silenced her. “Poppy, they need time to bond or Har—Mico will never survive.” There was the sound of feet and then a door shutting. Severus crawled onto the bed and scooped his child into his arms. Stroking his childe’s face. His childe snuggled into his chest. This made the pain seem tolerable when he was with his sire. Two days later Mico woke to a strange feeling of safety that he had never felt before. He was in the fine line between being squished and being embraced. He cracked an eye open and started up at the broad naked chest above him. A pair of arms embraced his waist loosely. Pulling them close together. Uh oh, what he gotten himself into now? Slowly his eyes trailed up the broad smooth white marble chest, up to the neck and then to the strangely peaceful face of … Snape. Mico let out an “Eep!” Before scrambling away and falling off of the bed finding himself only dressed in a pair of red silk boxers, which were definitely not his. A pair of amused black eyes looked down at him where he sat on the floor. Wait that wasn’t Snape, he was too young. He looked about nineteen years old and was very handsome. This Snape had waist length rumpled soft black hair, long dark eyelashes, full blood red lips and skin as pale and flawless as newly fallen snow. He was muscular, but no body builder, his muscles were rock hard. He was an imposing height of 6’3”. He was lean and broad, just slightly lanky, but certainly not awkward. Like Mico he only wore Silk boxers, but his were black. “Mico?” This Snape said hesitantly, Mico looked up… wait he wasn’t Mico. He was Harry, but no that name seemed wrong. Strange. “Who am I?” Mico asked confused. Shaking his head. A sad look crossed Snape’s face, “Mico, you’re name used to be Harry James Potter, until two days ago.” “Why isn’t it any more?” Mico asked confused cocking his head to one side looking like a lost puppy. “Mico come here.” Snape beckoned, opening his arms and to Mico’s annoyance his body did as bid. Mico crawled back onto the bed and into Snape’s arms. Snape turned him so Mico’s back rested on his chest and then laced his arms around his petite and slender childe’s waist, resting his hands just on his pelvis making Mico very aware of his sex. Severus went on to explain about what had recently happened over the winter holiday, while he unconsciously nuzzled Mico, who in turn leaned further back into his sire’s embrace. A single tear trailed down Mico’s cheek at the end of the story. “So what is my name sire?” Mico asked quietly. Tightening his grip on Mico Snape answered, “Nicholas Noctis. Now, come childe we must prepare for our journey to the vampire capital soon.” Nicholas nodded and stood catching sight of himself in the mirror he froze in shock. His black hair fell to his shoulder and was silken and straight. His gorgeous green eyes were now an almond shaped violet framed by long girly eyelashes. He an unusually blend of feminine and masculine features. With his long thin legs, narrow torso, long swan like neck and delicate long fingered hands, delicate wrists and ankles. In addition to this he had shrunk a few inches now standing 5’4 and with a delicate faerie like build. He was ethereal with his plump rose petal lips, high cheekbones and a pointed chin. His skin was as pale and flawless as newly fallen snow. His lightning bolt scar was gone. He was beautiful.
