Vitorio, who was none other than the vampire sent to Twins peak was sipping blood from a glass cup leisurely as he relaxed in his hosts couch. His host was none other than Julie,the first woman he had spoken to on the streets of Twins peak. Julie was now like him. A vampire. On the day he had compelled her to lead him to her house, he had turned her after feeding on her. He had initially wanted to kill her but had realized that maybe she'll be of use in the near future.
Currently, Julie was feeding directly from a man who almost looked like he was done for on his feet. This was the mailman who had come to deliver a letter but who had been unfortunate enough to meet a new Julie. He was extremely pale as the female vampire sucked him dry. Julie had taken on the new life of a vampire well. She was nothing like her old self and had rather developed a tenacity for killing. She especially liked to feed directly from her victims unlike her sire, Vitorio who preferred to keep his clothes free of blood. Feeding directly from a victim had it's Perks like the blood being warm. The blood tasting better and the extra boost it gave in power and energy. All the same, Vitorio didn't fancy the mess that came from feeding directly on a victim. He was already past the age where blood made any difference to him. As long as he was concerned,blood was blood, regardless of it's extraction method.
In the room with Vitorio and Julie were about fifty other people,all vampires and all adults. The youngest among them was a twenty three year old girl with astonishing beauty. She had jet black shoulder length hair, was of average height and was stylishly dressed. She was the town's top model and a beauty queen who had quite the influence In Twin's peak. Infact,all the people gathered in the room were influential people who had been turned by Vitorio. There was the chief of police, the richest man in Twin's peak, the owner of the biggest manufacturing company in Twin's peak among others. This was one of the tasks the big boss had given his people before sending them away to make him an army. They had been asked to turn the leaders or the most influential people in whichever town they were sent to before starting to turn the commoners.
They all knew the reason why the big boss had asked them to do this and didn't question him. It was a simple matter of controlling the whole town by controlling a few. Today, Vitorio was hoping to score big and bring an end to his first task. He was waiting for the most influential person of them all in Twin's peak. The mayor.with the Mayor turned, he could then move unto the common people and soon turn everyone in this town. Vitorio smiled as he thought of the possibilities of starting his own coven of vampires again. He would be a king. Not that it made much difference when he was already a vampire god of sorts with him being the very first of his kind.
"Are you sure he'll come, Julie?", Vitorio asked the woman by his side who threw the now lifeless mailman on the floor. "Rest assured sire. He will be here.we have his most prized packages here after all." Julie said with a look at two tied up bundles that were wriggling. Muffled shouts came from the bundles every now and then but no one even turned to look at the two bundles. "Are they able to breathe in there?, If they die before I get my use out of them I'll flay whoever brought them in this state!", Vitorio said fiercely. The chief of police immediately scurried forward and using a knife cut breathing holes for the two in the sack. The man wiped his brow after he was done with his task. He wasn't a kidnapper. He hadn't wanted to do this but he had been forced by Vitorio. He had no choice in the matter. It was obey or be killed. Just as the Chief of police got to his previous position, there was a knock on the door. "Enter", Julie answered. The door was swung open and in walked a man. He was big and round with a hairy moustache. He was dressed in a suit that looked like it could cover two people from cold in the North pole. He was that big. Vitorio shook his head as he looked at the man. He wasn't going to look good as a vampire at all. Vitorio thought to himself. "You know why you're here. If you brought any people out there then you just doomed them. Their death would be on your hands", Vitorio started coldly. " N..no. please,I promise. I didn't bring anyone. I left all the guards at home. I drove here myself. Please just let me see my wife and daughter. I beg of you.", The mayor begged, almost on the verge of tears. "Release them", Vitorio ordered. The chief of police stepped forward again to cut the prisoners free and that was when the mayor's eyes fell on him. In his worry for his family's safety,he had paid no mind to the people assembled in the room but now he could see them very clearly. "All.. all this people...", The mayor started to speak but was interrupted by Vitorio. "Yes Mayor, all these people are powerful and influential in this town just like you. But they work for me now. It will be wise for you to keep their real positions to yourself. At least for now. Do you understand?", Vitorio asked the mayor seriously. The man immediately nodded in compliance. Anything to see his family again. "Daddy!", A little girl of about eight years flew at the man and hugged him tightly. Behind her, a woman who looked to be in her early thirties followed with tears streaming down her face. "I'm so sorry I couldn't come earlier. I'm here now. Everything will be okay. I promise", the big round man assured his wife and daughter. "Everything being okay depend on your cooperation Mr. Mayor.", Vitorio told the man with a smirk. "I understand. Name your price. I'll pay anything to set them free.", The mayor answered Vitorio confidently who just smiled. "I'm afraid I'm beyond money at this point in time. Look at the people behind me. Does it look like they lack money?. No, I don't need your money. I need you in particular. I need you to join us.", Vitorio informed the Mayor. "Join you?, Why?", The man asked. "Simple, because I intend to take over this town soon and I need you in my group to make it simple for me. No, don't even protest. I don't have the time to go back and forth with you. You really have little choice in the matter. It's simple, either you join us or we kill your family Infront of you this very moment before proceeding to trace and kill every living member of your extended family as well as your wife's. Your servants would follow before we forcefully take over this town and kill you. You have 10 seconds to choose your answer.", Vitorio told the Mayor without emotion. The mayor's jaw was hanging open in shock. Just who was this man?. He could feel his daughter shaking as she held on tightly to his legs. His wife on the other hand was crying even harder now. He quickly made his decision, "I will join you if it means saving my wife and kid", the mayor answered. Vitorio stood up from his couch with a smile. "Very well. I have somewhere to be. I'll be back in a few days. I'll call you when I have need of you so I want you all to be ready at anytime." Vitorio told the people in the room. "Welcome to the coven Mr.Mayor. Julie will take you through our tradition. Don't worry you'll be a changed person very soon. Julie you're in charge." Vitorio said as he walked towards the door. "And oh Julie, remember to keep the two of them in the same room with him after he wakes up from the turning", Vitorio said with a wicked smile before he opened the door and stepped out. Leaving a puzzled Mayor and his wife and daughter behind with a giggling Julie.
