More than a thousand years ago:
My name is Nicolas Ver Martinez, I grew up in a middle-class family and had a very good life. One day, while I was researching a special kind of crystal, that crystal reflected the light of the red moon, and the red moon gave me special powers.
I tried to use the supernatural power I gained to help people, but I realized I had an intense thirst for blood, and I unconsciously attacked some of the townspeople to drink their blood.
"Run, he's a monster!"
"We must destroy this monster!"
The soldiers attacked me, but I resisted, and they had to kill me. In the end, they placed my bloody body in a coffin.
"How sad, Martinez was a very good man."
"I never thought such a curse would befall him."
The townspeople loved me very much, so they were very upset by the fate I had encountered. My family was filled with great sorrow, and accepting the truth was very painful for them.
Nicolas opened the coffin and realized he had fallen asleep in a church.
Nicolas: "Strange, why am I in this coffin? Am I dead?"
Nicolas got out of the coffin to see what had happened. He left the church and saw that all the townspeople were wearing black clothes.
Nicolas approached a man and said: "Excuse me, what happened here?"
The man was horrified to see Nicolas and said: "You're supposed to be dead!" He ran away in fear.
Nicolas was puzzled and said: "What does he mean I'm dead?"
"Run, he's come back to life!"
The townspeople were fleeing in fear and panic. Suddenly, several soldiers surrounded Nicolas to capture him.
Nicolas, confused, said: "What's going on here? Please, someone explain everything to me!"
Soldier: "You're a bloodthirsty monster and you harm the townspeople, do not resist and let us capture you."
Nicolas looked at his hands and said: "Am I a... vampire?"
The soldiers took him to court to put him on trial.
Judge: "Nicolas Ver Martinez, for the protection of the townspeople, you will soon be executed in front of everyone."
"This is not fair, he's our friend!"
"Please reconsider, he's always helped us; he doesn't deserve this execution!"
The judge slammed the table and silenced the crowd. Then he frowned and said: "I understand your feelings. Martinez is truly my friend too, which is why I want to end his suffering."
The people started murmuring.
Suddenly, a woman came forward and said: "This is wrong, Martinez never meant to harm anyone, and it's not right to treat someone who has been our best friend for years this way."
The judge sighed and put his hand on his forehead. He looked at the woman and said: "I don't want this either, but I have no other choice."
Nicolas thought: "Maybe this is a better end." He smiled.
Young woman: "If we imprison him in a tower, he won't be able to harm anyone. Each of us can give him some of our blood so he can live more comfortably."
The judge thought for a moment and said: "That's an interesting suggestion, let's try it." He smiled.
Nicolas was imprisoned in a tower a little way from the town. He wasn't allowed to leave the tower and had to live there for the rest of his life.

A week later:
Nicolas: "It didn't turn out so bad after all, even if I've been shunned. At least I'm not hurting anyone anymore."
Nicolas looked out the window. The weather was sunny and the sound of birds singing could be heard.
Nicolas put his hand on the window ledge and took a deep breath. He said to himself: "I wish I could go outside again. I wish I could see my family just one more time." He sighed and stared at the view.
Almost a month passed. Nicolas had gotten used to spending all day idly in that tower.
Nicolas: "How long can I continue living like this?"
It was a quiet night, and the sound of crickets could be heard. Several men entered the tower and approached Nicolas.
Nicolas said in surprise: "Why are you here? I didn't do anything wrong!"
One of the men said: "Your existence is your mistake." He smirked.
Nicolas looked at them in fear and said: "What do you want from me?!"
"Shut up and come with us!" He laughed.
Nicolas tried to escape. The men chased after him, caught him, and tied his hands. Then they took Nicolas with them.
Nicolas woke up and found himself in a room with his hands tied.
Nicolas thought: "Have I been kidnapped?"
Someone entered the room, came close to Nicolas, and said: "Finally, you're awake." He smirked.
Nicolas, anxious, said: "Why did you bring me here?! What do you want from me?!"
The man grabbed Nicolas's collar and said: "You must tell us how you gained such power."
Nicolas got angry and said: "Vampire power is dangerous, I can't tell you about it!"
The man smirked and said: "We've taken your family hostage. If you don't tell us your secret, something bad will happen to your family." He laughed.
Nicolas's face contorted, and he said angrily: "Fine, I'll tell you everything!"
Nicolas told the man everything. Then the man threw Nicolas out and said: "We don't need him anymore, kill this man along with his family."
Nicolas quickly got up and went to find his family.
"Hey, he's escaping!"
Nicolas went towards the warehouse and opened the door. Suddenly, he saw that his entire family was drenched in blood.
Nicolas went into deep shock and angrily said: "Why... What did I do wrong?"
"Hey you, running away is useless. You must die," one of the men sneered.
Suddenly, Nicolas attacked all the people who had killed his family and killed them without hesitation.
Nicolas looked with terrifying eyes and said: "I will never forgive you, I will kill you all!"
"Boss! That man has killed all our men!"
Boss: "What?! We need to escape quickly!"
Nicolas, filled with rage and hatred, entered the boss's room, only to find it empty and the furniture in disarray.
Nicolas: "So, you're running away, huh?" He laughed.
Nicolas left the place in dismay.
