Blind Battle: Journal of the King
Intro
There are a group of vampires that live at the edge of the earth. The Edge is unseeable through human eyes but when a person crosses to the edge, all traces of them disappear and it becomes like they never existed in the human realm. At the edge of one realm there is the start of another. That is were my story begins
**********************************************************
the story
I was on a war ship called Shark (I know dumb name) heading to join the war with Japan. If only we knew we were going to be wrapped up in a bigger war than the one we were planning. We got caught in a storm over the horizon that made us lose our way.
It was an afternoon in 1800's I forget the date but it was a long time ago. The ship was consumed by fog, darker than a night in the woods. The radio was hissing with strange signals it sounded like aliens were trying to contact us. Some people tried to signal back but the closer we got to the fog, the quieter the signals were. The last thing I remember before being eaten by the blackness was the sense of some thing staring at me from far with the weird mist.
Many jumped from the boat and without luck attempted to frantically swim away from the ship and the fog but as soon as they hit the water they vanished from site not able to be rescued because they no longer existed, poor people. A tide was pulling us in sight.
************************************************************ ************************
You may be thinking “There was no boat named ‘shark’. There wasn’t a war with Japan.” You are correct. There was no war and there was no ship. By that matter there was no black fog off the Pacific Ocean we were sailing on. Not that you know of.
************************************************************ ************************
I was at the edge of the boat. "Fang!!!" my friend Gered shrieked as he attempted to run to
the other end of the huge military boat. His feet scrapped the edge of the wood that was still left on the ‘light' side.
"Gered" I raced to my friend and found his arm attempting to pull him back. Then when I pulled his arm out of the fog I saw it was only bone and ripped segments of his military uniform. He tightened his grip with his boney finger tips around my arm. "AAAHHHHH" I shrieked and shock it off, shocked by what I had just seen. Questioning my sanity I jumped back 10 feet from him.
"F....A....N...G" he gasped reaching out of the mist with his bone arms
"GERED!!!" it just clicked to me that no mater if he was a skeleton or a sea monster he was still my friend and I had to attempt to save him or die trying.
I threw Gered a rope and walked back, attempting to pull him out from the demonic fog. It felt like a 1,000 pound boulder was pulling him away. His head emerged from the fog. Only it wasn't his head, his dark brown hair shone in the sunlight covering his face. His bright blue eyes flashed a deep red like an evil leprecon or something.
I looked at the once crowed ship with at least 2,000 crew members, which was now empty. The crew either jumped or was pulled into the fog. The last ones to be pulled in struggled to get out of the darkness. None of them would succeed. There was one person left on the dock that I had never seen before, if I did I would of remembered, he had deep black hair, darker than the fog that was drifting closer eating every thing in its path. The man had pink eyes that sparkled in the light, thin and week looking arms. He wore a black T-shirt and black slacks.
"Hello" the mysterious person said. He stood about a foot from me, at about an inch from the ink wall.
“This is not a good time for small talk!” I screeched
"FANG" Gered screamed from further in the mist.
"I can save your friend" the mystery man stated calmly picking up the end of the rope.
I stared at him stunned by the tone of his voice.
"On one condition" he finished
"I don't care about the conditions, SAVE HIM" I said urgently
"you go into the side" he began to drop the rope
"sure what ever just get him out"
“let go of the rope" he demanded and I dropped the rope and steeped back. With one pull he got Gered out of the wall. After that every thing turned black.
(End of reading!!!!!)
When I woke up I was stunned by what I saw. The mysterious guy was there talking to is lady at the other side of a huge, window covered room, with white carpet and soft green walls. Outside the windows there was nothing to see, it was all the same dark fog that took the ship.
"Where am I? What happened to Gered? Why is the fog outside?" I screamed demanding answers. (Ok if you blacked out and woke up in a strange place surrounded by fog that almost ate your best friend and the whole boat you were on, you'd be a little mad too.)
"Chill out. I’m Cobain and this is Maya. You’re in a house on the edge of the earth. To keep you alive I had my friend Maya here turn you into one of us." he stated calmly. "Did I answer all those questions? I couldn't tell" he teased
"What, what are you?" I asked
"How did I know, you'd ask more questions" he said "We are vampires"
"Ha-ha funny, now really"
"He's telling the truth and your a vampire. You’re on the edge of the earth." Maya stated flat out, not much comfort here huh.
"Ok, so I'm a vampire. I have another question. Why is there that fog stuff out side?" I thought I was going insane
"This is the end of the world" he paused; I guess making sure I wasn't having a heart attack, "Well, our edge of the world has been growing and in a few million years we will be able to take charge of the whole world." If my heart didn’t skip a beat a second ago it was going to then. As if I needed something else to freak about, this person hit the window. But then, as she staggered off, she tripped and snapped her neck. She then got up, placed her head back in position and walked away.
"That’s the unlucky one of the group. Not very coordinated I guess. Pity" Maya stated walking over to close the curtain.
"We need you to help us save the world by destroying it first" He said getting back to the point.
"Wait what?!" now I was really confused, "Ok, first I'm human. Well I was human. I can't destroy or save the world!"
“You’re not a human any more and you can save and destroy the world. Another part of being a vampire that I may have left out, you can’t die. None of us can.” Cobain said.
"Ok, so let me get this straight, I’m a vampire and I can't die and that Maya girl changed me into one. Now I have to destroy and save the world at the same time" Now all this was sinking in, as far as it is humanly, or unhumanly possible. I was just a normal guy sailing on a ship, then my friend gets killed and then saved and I watch him. Now I am in a black end of the world being asked the impossible task of destroying and saving the world at the same time. So I guess totally understanding isn't possible.
"Yes you got it." Cobain said in a bright voice. He’s asking me to destroy the earth then save it and now he's happy. I think this guy has more problems than me and that saying a lot right now.
"Listen to the plan!" Maya said impatiently.
“Pushy much" Cobain said in a teasing way.
“Wow this guy is whacked.” I thought
"Yes" Maya said again strait forward. Nothing can stop her
"Get to the plan" I said a bit more confused than I was while I was pulling my friend out of the black fog
"Fine, we will have plenty of time to tweak my plan. About 200 years..."
"Wait for the slow one!" I cut her off "200 YEARS?"
“Oh, get with the program, a year is like a minute for those who don't die" Cobain rolled he's eyes when I looked at him shockingly.
“"Please!" Maya was now on her last nerve. If I have to deal with that crazy person over there for a minute I would have lost all my nerves. “The plan is that we slowly expand our edge over the whole Pacific then work inland."
"Ok so now it's the 1800's...." I stated
"1820" Cobain cut me off. I ignored him
"So, then it would be 2020. Shouldn't it be 6666 or something." I went on
"You believe all that junk about 666 being the end of the world" Maya giggled
"Not any more." I pouted


The next 200 years went by like one day would for you. We didn't change the plan at all. Now it was 2020 'the end of the world'. Weird because I still think we should have waited for a couple more years till 6666. But Maya and Cobain refused. "This way they won't be expecting any thing." Was Maya’s excuse when I asked about it. Who would expect a black fog enclosing around them and then Miss Maya over here turning them in to vampires, any way.

Now time for a Blind Battle! We had to go out to the rest of the edge. We had to walk outside the room and the light to gather all the other vampires to start the parade to expand the edge to cover the world in blackness and then rebuild it from the pieces. As I stated before this is impossible.
You know how Maya can turn people into vampires, it seems that every one of us vampires has a power it just has to be uncovered. Cobain is like a loud speaker; with one yell he contacts all the Vampires on the edge. That’s pretty insane huh? I found out Hera, the one who fell the day I woke up and got up and walked away after breaking her neck, she can heal one hundred times faster than the others. That’s what I call a power. None of us can die, but we can't get over it that fast, trust me I've tried. We just wind up in the hospital for a day and then we’re fine.
As we walked out I couldn't see any thing, it was like I had a blind fold on and was walking into a war..... Wait I was. As we got closer to the crowd of people I could see blurs of them passing with there pale white skin and counting there was only ten hundred of them, we were way out numbered by millions compared to the human race.
Cobain walked out to the front of the crowd of vampires and screamed “This is the end of the beginning and the beginning of the end. It’s the start of a better world for all of us. Remember we can only die one way, by being taken into the direct sunlight so remember to suit up and begin the Parade of the end and the beginning of the new!" Wow he really creeps me out! And so starts the beginning of the end and the end of the world, to save the world? I still don't see how that’ll work.
I saw this little girl sitting on a log on the outside of the group. She was paler than the rest and wore a purple shirt and jeans. She had the darkest back hair I have ever seen with her bangs pulled to one side. She kicked around a rock with the toe of her converses. Her eyes were electric green with a blue ring around them.
“I see you caught Violet." Cobain said, I didn't even hear his foot steps, but he was right next to me. "She has a big part of our plan"
“but how could she. She’s just a little kid"
"I am not!" she exclaimed appearing right next to me.
I gestured to the stump and then her and then back to the stump.
"No need to scare the new guy." Maya exclaimed “even though he deserves it" she added under her breath.
"Any way, I'm Violet and I'm over ten million years old. I started this edge of the earth and created the vampires that roam it." she stated proud of herself
"so what's your part of this messed up plan to destroy and save the world?" I slowly said still in shock.
"I am only the one who saves the world, I'm the sun, when I want I could flood this whole place with light." she said and suddenly the black went away and I could see all the dead grass and the freaks that live upon it and the sand that was slowly invading it.
"So, hi I guess I'm Fang."
"I know that" she said "you’re the one that destroys the world"
"Why am I sounding more like a villain in a comic book." I observed discussed
"You are not the villain your the hero, just in a plot that doesn’t suit you." Violet stated.
"Since I'm a hero what is my power?" I was on my last nerve. Then suddenly black orbs surrounded my hands.
“Your power is to extend the Edge and enclose the Earth in it.” Said Violet
“How dose that make me a hero.”
“The Earth is slowly eroding, inside out. You can stop its misery.” Violet explained
“Sure.” There was no use in trying to prove her wrong.

We lined up shoulder to shoulder across the edge of the fog. I just realized the destiny of both of the relms were in my hands. I was frozen with fear. Then all those thoughts disappeared, leaving only one. “I could rule the world! I could make sure Violet never takes the fog!”
Shot the light in front of us with clouds of black fog. The voice of Violet saying, “You are just a hero in a plot that doesn’t suit you.” Kept echoing in my head. While we were pulling people toward the fog and Maya turning them into vampires.
Violet was wrong. I am a villain just like in the comics. Dark orbs circled my fingertips causing destruction and mayhem around the world. Strange the things you think about when you destroy the planet.
We were reaching the Gulf of Mexico rapidly. We hit a load of people on a whale watcher’s boat a few days back. Tons of them jumped only to be pulled into the fog by Hera. Hera would be a thousand times better at this whole war thing if she wouldn’t trip over her own feet every couple of steps she tripped over a starfish once. It was amusing, at least she heals fast.
After taking America down in our blood battle, we only lost three vampires because they were droged into the sunlight. To Mexico we go! After that we can finish our destruction of the world.
With about a yard of sunlight we stopped. I went over to Violet, “Just cover that extra yard and we’ll be good to go!” Violet said.
“No, we aren’t.” I smiled evilly at her.
“What do you mean!”
I smiled at her.
“I’m centuries older than you. Answer my question.”
“I will rule the world” The evil smile faded from my face.
She smirked “I guess I was wrong about you not being a villain.”
“Yep.”
“How are you going to stop me from saving the world!” she was snooty. I picked her up and put her in the last bit of sun left, since that’s the only way you can kill a vampire.
“That’s how.” I whispered to myself, “Now, time for a take over.” After that day I realized I was not a hero, I was the villain just like in a comic book. Only in this comic book the good guy doesn’t always win. I rule the world of black fog and vampires. It’s good to be king.
That’s the whole story of how I became king. It all stared with a war that never happened.
