After the death of the first Original vampire, King Wren. Bruce his Chief Knight decided to stop being a knight and cultivate his ability to see the future. Bruce became popular for his foresight ability and kept improving on this ability.
Centuries after centuries, Bruce had once again become an important figure in the kingdom's war because he was able to see into the future for up to a Millennium and was able to protect the kingdom by telling the king about the plans of the enemy's to attack them and advice on ways in which he thinks they can counter the attacks. This has helped the Vampire kingdom conquer many other kingdoms and win a lot of war.
Unfortunately, during the last war, Bruce was no where to be found and the kingdom barely won the war and rumours began to spread, some people said that Bruce had betrayed the Kingdom while others said that he died. A giga-annum had past and still no one heard from Bruce.
In present times King Marshall, elder brother to Prince Rex was ruling the vampire kingdom and he had been king for over five hundred thousand years. The thing about him was that he didn't rule like other kings, instead he tormented the vampires making them suffer.
With the vampire economy destroyed, making only the rich richer and the poor poorer, almost everyone in the vampire kingdom despised him, but he didn't care and their conditions were getting worse. No one could do or even say anything about it, because the rules were so strict and anyone who tried to speak up would be executed instantly.
But they caught a glimpse of light when a prophecy was revealed. And they hoped it would change the kingdom for the better.
***
"His majesty, King Marshall, has arrived."
A sound was heard in the large room. The hall was very big and there was a large long table where twelve people were seated and in front of the table were four thrones. Two smaller than the rest where a man and woman sat on, they were the king's brother prince Rex and his wife, and there was a throne bigger than the other two were a woman was seated, she was the king's Wife.
And everyone stood up as a form of respect for the King, as he walked towards the largest throne in the room with guards trailing behind him. When he sat down, every other person followed suit.
"Greetings to the Council," The king said, "Greetings to his majesty King Marshall," One of them at the table said, he was the leader of the council "Elder Caddel Let's get straight to the point why has this meeting been called?" The King asked
"There is an old man that's going around the kingdom claiming to be the famous Bruce from the time of King Wren," The elder replied, "That is not a problem, he's probably some delirious old man. Why has a meeting been called about it? " The king asked.
"He Keeps demanding that he wants to see the king and saying he has something important to tell you," The Elder replied, "Where is he now? " The king asked "We have him locked up" he answered
"Bring him here, If he wishes to speak to me I'll allow him to" The King said and the elder signalled one of the guards who immediately went to bring him in.
Shortly after the guard returned with the man. The man had slightly grey hair and he wore a dark cloak, other than that he looked like any other normal elderly man. "Take off the cuffs on his hands" The king ordered and immediately the guard took them off.
"You wanted to speak to the king didn't you, so here I am" The king said "So you are the current king of the vampire kingdom" The old man asked again "I believe I had just made that clear, didn't I ?" The king said
"So you claim to be the legendary Bruce who disappeared a long long time ago" The king asked. "Yes, I am Bruce former knight of the vampire kingdom and special advisor to the late king Wren" Bruce said firmly.
"So if you are Bruce, Why are you back after over a millennium or why did you leave in the first place, where did you go and why do you want to speak to me so badly?." The king asked him
"During the last war I had gotten into a bad accident and suffered severely, but when I was healed I had lost my foresight ability. So I decided to go into exile so I could recover and enhance my ability, It had taken so long that I did not realize how much time had past. I wasn't able to recover my original ability but I got something even better 'Fate check' this ability doesn't only predict the future but also gives me a vision of the absolute fate of anything, anyplace or anyone" Bruce explained
"Ok, so why do you want to speak to me?" The king asked "I had a vision. A boy, a young vampire with amazing powers he would rebel against you and you both will battle each other. The boy will win and kill you and then he will rule the vampire kingdom" Bruce said
The entire room was completely quiet for a few seconds until the silence was broken by the sound of laughter. "Ha ha ha ha..."
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha... Wow that was very nice honestly, how long did it take you to put that story together?" The king laughed and then asked
"So you take what I say as a joke?" Bruce asked "Well it is very funny and entertaining, I have not laughed like this in a thousand years." The king said "So 'Mr Bruce', when is this child supposed to 'kill' me"
"The time of the battle was not clear, but this child will be born in exactly one hundred years from now and this child will be born with silver hair and his power will be so great that when he uses these powers all the stars in the Galaxy would dim and then shine again" Bruce explained
"Ha ha ha... I can help it this is hilarious. Okay let me guess you want me to step down from the throne or to treat the vampire like my children so that a silver haired baby doesn't kill me" The king said
"If you feel you have to that's your own choice I am only here to inform you of your fate, but it seems you take me as a joke" Bruce said
"Yes I know that you are in fact a joke. This is not the first time someone comes here claiming to be a shaman and telling me to step down from the throne so that I wouldn't die or so the ancestors wouldn't attack me" The king said
"I am King Marshall the first the greatest and most powerful king that has ever and will ever rule, so if that child you speak of ever emerges, I will squash him like a bug."
"Take him away and lock him up! " The king ordered and the cuffs were put back on Bruce and he was taken away. "He should be executed tomorrow" He ordered
"I believe we are done here" The king asked "Yes your majesty" The elder answered. And then the King and the royal family left.

{Later that day}
The king had shown that he didn't believe what Bruce said but deep down he was truly afraid of the possibility of it happening. And he kept pondering about it.
"ding-dong" The door bell rang
A servant opened the door and a man walked in. "I have a message to relay to the king" the man said "Alright" the servant replied and then walked away
After a few minutes the king was there and he sat down comfortably "What is the message you have come to relay?" He asked "Greetings your majesty, the man that you ordered to be locked up and executed tomorrow has escaped, and he is nowhere to be found as the council has ordered a search round the kingdom, that's the message your majesty," The ,messenger said
"You may leave" The king said, and he left. Now the king was even more afraid than before, but he still had faith in himself. With all these vampires constantly holding meetings in the castle, rumours began to spread around the kingdom about the prophecy and a ray of hope shined on them as they eagerly waited for a hundred years.
The sound of a crying baby was heard around the room as a child was just born. "It's a boy" The nurse voiced out and gave the child to his mother and father. "His name will be Alex" The father said.
Tears filled their eyes as joy filled their hearts, but that joy did not last long in their hearts.
This child has some special features; his hair was silver grey and his eyes were blue. It was exactly a hundred years since the prophecy was made, they new what would happen.
"I have to report back to the king immediately" The nurse said "You will do no such thing" Prince Rex the father of the child replied.
"Don't, even bother" A voice was heard in the room and the King walked in with guards behind him. He went close to the mother and father "As the prince, I'll grant you and your wife the night with your child" The king said and turned around "That child shall be executed tommorow at noon" He said and left the room.
The prince's wife Dana was in tears "Not my child... please don't let it happen... don't let him take my child from me" she cried out. "I don't know what I'll do but I'll make sure nothing happens to him" Prince Rex said

(In the vampire castle on planet luxora)
In the large room the King was seated on his royal throne. Two guards walked in "Where is the child" The King asked them "Your majesty, the prince, his wife and the child are no were to be found" One of the guards replied
"You mean to tell me that they are not in the castle?!" The king asked furiously "Yes your majesty, we have searched the entire castle"
"No! Go and find them. And make sure they are brought back to the castle; Dead or Alive" The King ordered
***
(In another kingdom in planet luxora)
"Please help us we need your help Is there anywhere you can send us to now please" Dana pleaded with the old looking woman in front of her "I told you, sorcerers do not like to mingle with vampires" The woman mentioned
"Can't you just run away with one of those spaceship you guys have" The sorceress asked "If we use that they'll track us down in a minute"
"We will give you anything, we have diamonds" Prince Rex said opening a pouch full of diamonds "Okay, but I can only take you so far, my magic has grown old" She replied "Anywhere that's far away would do" Dana said
"Okay, I can either transport you three to ones of these planets; the planet Virgo or the planet Earth. So" The sorceress asked
After Rex and Dana took a few seconds to decide, they came to a conclusion "We'll go to the planet to the Earth" Dana replied and then the sorceress walked them to a room.
She asked them to hold each others hands so that they would all be transported to the same place. She changed some incarnation and with the snap of her fingers they were gone.

(Planet Earth year 2010)
"Prince Rex what have we done to receive this honor today" A man said as he was seated in a living room with his wife next to him "We want you to do something for us Dave and it is very important" Rex said
Rex and Dana explained what had happened to Dave and his wife "Please we want you to take care of our child, it's too dangerous to keep him with us." Dana said
"We will do anything to help but wouldn't they figure it out eventually and come to earth and find him here" Dave asked "No, my brother is not going to. Even if he figured out that we were on Earth he wouldn't know where or who we left Alex with, it would take him forever to search the entire earth." Rex said
"He would never guess that a vampire child would be in the hands of humans, So please take him" Dana said "Alright we'll take him" Dave said "Thank you so much" Rex and Dana said to them
Dana then gave Alex to Dave and his wife "Shouldn't we be able make contact with you?" Dave asked "No! It would be too dangerous, the technology that the we vampires use is quite complex is rapidly advancing, faster than that of humas. The other vampires could track you down" Rex answered "That is why we had to come to earth using magic" He said
"When he is eighteen years old we will come back for him but if we don't come, tell him what happened." Dana said
"I know it's a normal hair color for humans on Earth but I can't take any chances" Dana then put a necklace on Alex's neck and immediately his hair turned black "Please be safe" she said and Rex and Dana left Dave's home.
They knew that Rex's brother would eventually find them ,so they decided to move to a farther continent from where the left Alex. They trusted that Dave and his wife
Alex lived a wonderful life with Dave and his wife Sandra, they took care of him like he was their own child and they decided that they would not tell him about his real parents until he was eighteen years of age.
They knew that when he became eighteen he would start to no longer age fast and he would age very slowly like other vampires.
Back the planet Luxora, word had spread about the child in prophecy and that he had been born. The hope of the vampires had grown and they decided to wait patiently for the return of the child who was going to free them from the hands king Marshall.
After 10 year Rex and Dana were later found and were killed on sight but the search for the silver haired vampire was still on going.
Coming out of a convenient store was a teenage boy who happened to have just bought some stuff. It was around eight pm at night and he seemed to be on the phone with someone. "Hey I dropped by the convenient shop, do you want anything?" He asked "No don't bother" A female voice replied from the phone "Okay I'm coming home now, See ya" He said "Okay bye" She said.
He walked for a while but he was stopped whey four men stood in front of him not letting him pass through.
"Hey kid what do you have there?" One of them asked, but he just went around them and continued walking "Kid you know it's rude not to answer questions"
He just kept on walking without saying anything. "Get him!" One of the men said. And he started to run quickly away from them, then he found an alley and decided to hide in it. They ran after him and then one of them spotted the alley.
"Hey kid we know you're in here, so just came out so we wrap this up!" Then they spotted exactly were he was hiding and surrounded him "Just leave me alone, I don't want any trouble" He replied
"Oh so he can talk!" One of them said "Get his stuff!" The leader said and they immediately took everything that he had bought. "This is a lot of stuff he's got here, must be some rich guy's kid" one of them said
"Alright, beat him and knock him out" The leader said "Alright" they replied "And take his phone too"
As they ganged up to beat him, he tried to fight them off and he wasn't too bad. He was able to hit one of the men, but it wasn't enough. They thrashed him till he wasn't able to move and laying helplessly on the floor.
"Alright that's enough, Let's get out of here quick" The leader said and they proceeded to leave the alley.
(Alex's POV)
I couldn't feel anything but pain all over my body and I could also feel my self loosing consciousness.
But something else happen, I didn't know why or how but I could feel my self regaining power, it was like a surge of electricity running through my veins. My mind immediately went to the guys who had mugged me and we're now walking out of the alley.
Then I could lift my self of the floor and I stood up. "Hey stop right there!" I shouted at them. They all turned to look at me "Looks like the kid is asking for more" one of them said "Then give it to him!"
One of them ran at me and tried to land of blow on me, but with the speed that I had at the moment, I could dodge it easily and he kept trying to hit me but I continued to dodge all his attach. I kept on dodging for a while then I decided to attack; I readied myself to give him a punch on his stomach and as soon as I landed the punch he went flying into a wall.
I had no idea were this strength came from. The other men saw what happened and their leader immediately ordered the two others to attack "Get him"
They both charged at me with full speed and were both trying to hit me. I was easily dodging all of their attacks, then I took one of them by the shoulder and through him towards the wall making him loose consciousness. In my I said 'two down two to go'
The other guy was so shocked because of what had just happened, then started to back away from me slowly. "Stop right there" I said and then he was immediately static and didn't move. I quickly went close to him and gave him a kick, which knocked him out immediately.
Their leader who was standing there dumfounded was looking straight at me and it was as if he was so shocked that he could not move his own body. I held him on his neck and looked directly into his eyes, in just seconds he withered into ashes before my eyes, which shocked me so much.
Everything I did was so shocking and immediately ran back home. I got home around 9pm and when I got home Emma was already asleep and mom and dad weren't in, so I guessed they were at work. I went up to my room and took a cold shower before basically collapsing on my bed. I was in so much shock from what had just happened, but I was also extremely exhausted and I went immediately to sleep.
(7am In the morning)
I woke up to the sound of my alarm "Ugh..." I stretched on the bed. Then I remembered what had happened last night. Then I went to check up on my injuries, I was so tired last night that I didn't even treat my wounds, but when I checked my body there was no single injury or bruise on me, not to mention I wasn't feeling pain anywhere "Was that all a dream?" I said to myself
I then turned to where I had taken off my clothes last night and the clothes were still there and they were in bad shape because of the beating I took. They were dirty and torn, but I wondered why there weren't any marks on me, if I remembered correctly I was bleeding seriously Last night.
And also what the hell was that power I had yesterday, that guy basically turned into ashes.
But then I just shrugged everything off, maybe I was really mugged last night and they hit my head pretty bad, and I was probably just hallucinating. That was the story I settled for. And I wasn't going to let it bother me.
