"What The Hell... Happened!" Phoebe shouted as she burst into tears.
She lead all the Vampires and all the Vampires Related Races that used to be in the Vampire Settlement out of the Settlement due to the order given to her by her Husband; Deinekes.
She had seen a vision. A Banshee Vision that her Husband is going to kill their daughter; Melina. Immediately she told her husband this, he had Commanded that she took everyone in the Settlement out and let only him stay here and they can arrive after a week.
But while walking through the Jungle. She felt a feeling. A connection was lost. She wasn't the only one who had felt it as all the Vampires had also felt the same feeling. A connection was lost. Out of Instincts, she knew what it meant. A Vampire had died.
'Did he let her kill him.' Phoebe thought as she kept on crying. 'Or has she grown so powerful that she was able to kill him.'
The other Vampires that were following her were close to three hundred. As they were the population of a Small Human Town. They all felt the same feeling, it was a connection that left them. Due to researches, Vampires found out that they had a certain connection with their creation. Whenever a Vampire died, all the others that he turned into a Vampire would feel the connection lost and out of Instincts they would know that the Vampire was gone for good.
Deinekes was the First Original Vampire and whether they liked it or not they all came through him. Deinekes initiated Twenty-five different Individuals turning them into a Vampire. Those Twenty-five Individuals created other Vampires either though given birth or through blood ritual. The Vampires Related Race also did thesame and so their was a connection that Deinekes had with every single one of them.
Other Vampires didn't have connection with everyone just with the ones they had created, but Deinekes was the one whom everyone came to be. They all felt his connection.
"If he was killed by someone would we survive." One of the Vampire's complained in fear.
Deinekes was the Strongest as he was the Original and the First of their kind. But he has been killed. They were also very strong, but not as strong as him. If someone killed Deinekes, they wouldn't stand a chance against such a person.
Even the little Vampires around four to five year old were sad. They also felt the connection leaving them and they knew naturally that someone great had died as the connection that left their body was massive.
"Everyone let's head back to the Settlement, we need to give him at least a befitting Burial." Phoebe said. "If we find out who did this to him, Don't hesitate to kill him or her. Even if you are related..."
'Melina did you really kill him. But Why.' Phobe thought sad.

The Three Hundred or so Vampires and the Vampires Related Classes had just arrived in the Vampire Settlement and they had seen the bodies. One of the body belonged to Deinekes and the other belonged to Georgious. They body didn't look recognizable as the body looked to be eaten and just some part of it left. Some bones and the bones itself was also crushed.
The reason they knew who the two were was because of the smell that they would be able to detect who it was and who it is.
Phoebe ran to the deceased body of her husband's side and then knelt down touching the body. It wouldn't be something a reasonable person would refer to as a body anymore. It had no face anymor as it was eaten. Some parts of the intestines were also eaten. The arms were no more. Just the pelvic region and some parts of the legs. Most part of the bones had broken completely as they looked like they had been crushed from a Hungry Lion. But a Lion wouldn't be able to kill even one of the Weakest Vampires.
'Melina wouldn't eat her father like this. Why would she.' Phoebe thought trying to process everything as she kept on weeping.
All the Vampires and Vampires Related Races went to comfort her for the loss. It was a great loss for everyone. Deinekes was a respected Vampire not because of the fact that he is their King or he is the First Original Vampire or the Strongest. He always had a charismatic nature. He wouldn't hesitate to eliminate any threat to the Vampire. He was ready to sacrifice his life for them. To everyone he was like their great grandpa or Father or brother as some would feel it. Their very Saviour or as some would say The Greatest Vampire to ever Walk the Earth has died.

Moments later all the Vampires were gathered together at the center of the Vampire Settlement close to the Vampire Royal Castle. It didn't even look like a castle as everything here was just tents. The Vampires didn't need much, they still needed to be made hidden from the other world. So making a Huge castle in the middle of the Jungle wasn't a good idea. It was a bad idea.
There were Several tents here and there. The most decorated tents was the one that both the Vampire Deceased King; Deinekes and The Vampires Queen; Phoebe lived.
The remaining body of Deinekes and Georgious was kept on top of a firewood. The firewood was high. Deinekes's own was higher as he was a form or royalty. Georgious decompoaed was by Deinekes's left side. His body was also eaten by Who knows Who?
On top of Deinekes body, some royal clothes was kept on top of his body and also covering the little to nothing body part he had. Deinekes didn't have a crown as he didn't like that idea of where something on his head. When he was alive he always loved the cool morning Breeze to sweep through his long black hair.
"Today, we mourn the loss of a true leader, a kind soul, and a brave warrior - Deinekes, King of Vampires. He was a man who cared deeply for his people and his kingdom, and he will be greatly missed by all who knew him. Though we may be sad at his passing, we must remember his many accomplishments and how he helped shape our world. Let us celebrate his life and honor his memory." Phoebe paused for a moment, her voice steady and strong. "In death, as in life, Deinekes will remain an inspiration to us all. He would remain as an inspiration to all the Vampires that are to come."
"Deinekes was not only our king, he was also my husband. We were united in our love for each other and for our people. I will miss him every day, but I will carry on his legacy and lead our people with the same strength and compassion that he did. Deinekes will always be a part of me, and I will never forget the love we shared." Phoebe's voice faltered slightly as she spoke, but she continued on with resolve. "I am going to miss him greatly." Tears fell from her face indicating a great sadness that she felt in her heart.
"I would leave it for the Twenty-five Vampires to give their speeches." Phobe said. "I meant the Twenty-five Vampires that Deinekes created first. The first extension of him."
