A Vampires Lament
Blood Moon Legend Alan Part One
Chapter One: Amnesia


I remember a bit of the past, but it's like a faint memory. I was half blinded by pain so I'll try to tell you as much as I can. It was storming and the rain was harsh, I was found by my village and reported to be die tomorrow. I can remember a girl in brown hair. A tear fell from her eye as if she was like my girl friend.
She put her hand on my chest and a blue aura was gave to me, it kept me alive at the cost of amnesia.
I awoke in a bed I was sweating and had pain all over my body. I had bandages on my chest and arms. I was scared and knew nothing at the moment. In fear I jumped out the window and began to run, beining hit by rain and hail. Tree limbs hitting my body and leaving scratches.
I was bleeding badly and felt have dead, I had scars that made me limb and I just couldn't take it. At the moment I was hurt and half asleep. I jumped to the top of a tree and began to close my eyes. I fail asleep and I was barely becoming to stay awake. I woke up the next day and it was still raining.
I came to my feet only to realize I was no longer on the tree. It wasn't the most best place to sleep so I couldn't blame myself. I got up with half ached legs and began to walk, I soon gained some feeling in my legs so I started to run. I traveled the land and wondered were I was. Question were the only thing in my mind. Were was I, who was I, what am I. I still had common sense so I just guessed I was a human.
I knew my name still so I knew I was Alan. Still having question I hoped I could at least find a town and figure out what land I was in. I found a merchant and decided to sneak and still a map. I came up behind him and it ended up beining a woman with blond hair and a somewhat well figure who had a smile, and said. "Lost are you, half naked, scars everywhere, and probably clueless are you. Well since I'm kind enough you can take whatever you need."
I felt good and I'm sure she did to. I gladly took some food and clothes, along with a map, and set off. I took a quick look at the map and the first thing I realized was the top of it saying "Blood Moon"
Well I finally realized were I was. I know was left with one question, were was I supposed to go. I randomly looked around the map and found a spot saying "Kallamora" I headed east and began my journey.



Chapter Two: Rinkishu


As I traveled to my destination I started thinking and wondering. It was almost impossible to do any of the thinking since I knew nothing, but still I had to find this girl who kept me alive. I was connected to her some how and I needed to hurry and find her. I traveled threw Blood Moon hoping that I would actually find something worth stopping for. And thats when I found a place.
It storming again and I had trouble staying yet again on my feet. It was raining and mud was everywhere. My black and white clothes were damaged so I decided I had to stay at the Inn. On top of it was a sign it said "The Ole Fang".
"Weird name." I though. "What fun is in stored for me." I said to myself sarcastically.
I entered the place as the oiled doors opened, as I came in everyone looked at me, was it a fight they wanted or a hello. Probably the first one. I sat down and beside me was a person in a silver robe he had silver hair and some what of some red eyes. He was the only guy who didn't seem to want to fight.... then again. "Here's a drink for ya! On the house." The bartender said as he slid the drink across the table.
I went to go grab it and enjoy some relieve for once, but all the bad broke loose. "Thats mine." The silver haired man said.
Just as he put his blade right in front of my face. Fear struck me and I couldn't move. He looked at me with his red eyes, and the only thing that came to my mind was "Oh Crap!"
He grabbed it and drank all of my drink. Every single last drop of the Goonsie.
And that was it, I was scared, bruised, blooded, clueless. And this guy has the nerve to take my drink. I pushed the blade back at his own face, leaving a mark on my hand. I got off my seat and said the simple words of "Back Off!"
He gently got up and walked away he sat on the ground and waited me to come outside with him. I was clueless until the bartender said "Well boy, you started the fight, now try and end it."
"Great" I thought "All I ever wanted was a drink and a bed and I can't even get that."
I walked out side to only be greeted by the man charging at me. I jumped to the air and dodged him, I decided to land on the roof. And I managed to have good footing, how would I fight, no weapon, no spell, no nothing. "Erumpo" The man said as flames started charging at me, "O.K if thats not messed up I don't know what is." I said.
The man smiled and charged at me with his sword in his hand. "So it's time to meet the reaper, and Ferus Virus is gone a help you with that." It seemed the only way to fight was to fist fight against the sword.
The thought of my bleeding hands after word would only be distracting. I charged and hoped. To only realize that the man has stopped charging. "If your that dumb, then I have no point in fighting you." He walked away and the only things I remember he said as he walked away were. "Remember Rinkishu!"



Chapter Three: The New Alan


A couple of months had past. I was real different then what I use to be. My clothes were darker, baggy, and not in it's best condition. My eyes were now a shade of silver, and my teeth were somehow sharper then before and were pointed like a wolf. I also had darker hair than before, no longer silver it was, but more like a really dark gray. I had totally changed the way I looked and I had left words unspoken and no longer yelled out things such as "Back Off!"
I was smarter now and had time to practice my skills, I was able to learn a dark secret of mine a secret not even I had known. I could control the wind. I had always remember Rinkishu the main person who changed me after the fight I faced I had realized he could do such magic such as he did, then what else could. My only worry was death....
"Cold blooded destiny" as i called it.
Nothing more could happen if you were dead my only fear in the world was death, and if someone knew that such as Rinkishu I would sure to be forced to surrender and be held against my own will. I had to learn to keep secrets and keep my mouth shut, I always wondered what would happened if I just let him chug it down and leave me in peace....
Peace that was all I wanted.
I wanted everyone to leave me alone, but i couldn't I had a quest. Two to complete actually, the first one was to find the girl in the faint images in my head, maybe somehow she linked to my powers. "A gift." I wondered.
My second quest was a quest based on someone I met..... his name was Rinkishu as you may know from what I have told you before. He was in a world of hurt. "Don't worry" I said to myself.
"I will remember you, cause I'm gonna take you down." I said yet again to myself.
I was heading to a Inn that I found on the map I was given. "Storm Dust" was what it was called.
I had finally decided to settle somewhere instead of a tree, as I did for several months by now. If I wasn't beaning attacked by a insane mage it wasn't something else that happened to me in a Inn. Maybe i would get lucky this time. I had not known what I was beaning watched by someone as I walked and thought. All I knew that I had a faint feeling in my head saying "Behind you boy!"
As I turned around for quick hesitation I saw the figure watching me it was none other then the one person that had caused me to change. "Hello! Boy" He said with a smile.
"I heard all your thoughts" He said as a smile grew bigger on his face.
I simply turned around and walked slowly away "Maybe later..." I said as yet a hidden smile was on my face.
Then the forbidden words came from his moth "So deaths your fear." He said in a cheerful tone.
I did nothing but turn around and gave a surprised yet dark look. "I know, I know what your thinking yes I can read minds thats what we mages can do." He said.
I had nothing to do, he only did one more thing before he said the most horrible words that would change my life forever. He picked up his blade and said. "Hears the deal, lets fight, if I win you join the Regiment if I loose, then, then." He looked at his sword.
"You can have this." He said as he held up his blade.
The blade gleamed even at night and I was ultimately put into a trance, "Deal!" I said.
He put his blade to his other hand got in a pose and said "Shall we began."
"Ladies first." I said with a smirk.
"I don't like letting girls like you go first I'll go!...." He then said.
I hate my mouth when it want shut up. Especially when the person against it has a comback......



Chapter Four: The Fight For My Faith


I was now in a unescapeable situation, my blood turned cold as Rinkishu was about to cut me up with Ferus Virus. There I stand thinking "Would the last thing I see in my life was that blasted sword."
Death was approaching me at high speed, until I did the simple thing of jumping out the way. I landed a good feet away from him in order to summon my one true best ability. The Wind Blade, it could not be takened from me or be broken. I did one leap towards Rinkishu just to show him what he had shown me. I was at least a hair away from him until he jumped to the air and in mid air he through several what seem to be Bluefire.
I try to dodge them all, but the last one hit me. My left sleeve had ashes now on it. Thought the burned mark on my arm was hurting I ignored it just to shoot back several Air Missiles. one hit him and he showed some emotion of beinng hurt. After he was done he landed on the ground and came at me, with his blade in both hands.
I did the same and charged at him then we were slashing away are blades just to hit the other ones sword. My blade was at the up most equal to him, but what I had not realized was the vines coming from his sleeve. They grabbed my leg. I felt doomed until the vines let go after I fell to the ground. "Ehhh... good enough." He said.
He threw me his blade and it was finally in my hands. He walked away just for me to realized that the vines were coming for the blade. I held on tight, but the vines took it. My hands bleed from the cut from his blade. He smiled and said "Well to bad, goodbye."
"Wait!" I said
"How did you do that?" I asked.
"The Regiment thought me." He replied.
"Maybe I'll consider joining... tell me about this Regiment." I said as I was seriously curious of the Regiment.
He told me all about it and how they gave each member a bed and very good meals. They thought each member a series of moves and spells to fit there style. I also learned of what the meals were. "Turkey, ham, goonsie, bread, pork chop, chicken, and more." He said.
My mouth drooled at the thought and I immediately said the new words that changed my life and more. "I'll join!"



Chapter Five: The Regiment


I was told more about the Regiment as I followed Rinkishu, he mentioned about how missions were given to each member every now and then. They could deny accept, but if they accept there is a chance of rank gain. I asked him what rank he was and he replied with. "I'm like the Co-Leader." He replied with.
"No wonder you practically knew my every move... cheater." I said.
"If I told you what I was you would probably never fought me." He added.
He made a good point, but still. Rinkishu as I learned was like the "Knows Everything" kinda guy. He alway refereed to me as
"Child!" or "Boy!" never by my name. It began to become aggravating so I simply pulled out my Wind Blade and put it to his neck.
"Well your quite the violent one are you, act like that with the leader then it's curtains for you." He said as he crossed his hand across his neck making a cutting sound.
I could do nothing to him. As hard as it was, I could only return my blade and give a faint sigh. My question were non stop for Rinkishu, they never seemed to bother him it was actually kinda enjoyable to him. He enjoyed teaching me and telling me how the Regiment worked. I was just about to ask another question when we finally came to the building. I was a lot closer to the Regiment then I thought.
I wondered what would of happened if I was successfully against Rinkishu and harmed him, or worse kill him. Would the Regiment come after me. Well I didn't luckily. He knocked on the castle like door and said "It is I Rinkishu and I bring a new member."
"Well, real good with the introductions are you." I said with a faint emotion of happiness.
"Ahh Rinkishu long time no see, the Regiment was fixing to send a search party." a voice said as the door opened.
"You say that every time, Azura." Rinkishu said as he gave a smile.
I kept my head down ashamed of my loss and my deal with practically the devil. Only this devil had silver hair, a robe, and red eyes. "Come boy I shall show you your room." Rinkishu said.
"Already!" I said
"We awake early tomorrow and after me kicking your tail, you'll need a lot of rest." He said.
Yet again I felt the urge to summon my Wind Blade and close it in on his throat. But no right in front of Azura, I would not be even a fight against them. Rinkishu lead me to my room. He said "And by the way you have a room mate."
"Great who is he." I asked.
"More like who is she." He replied.
My mouth dropped practically. Although I was afraid I have seem many girls, but never had to interact with one. "Her name is Amy, I can see your face, but don't worry she won't bite." he added with a smirk.



Chapter Six: Meet The Team


I had awoken to a face starring down at me smiling, it was not Rinkishu, but a girls face. She had blue eyes, brown hair, and her clothes were somewhat of light armor. One pauldron on her left shoulder and that was the only armor on her, the rest were clothes. Like me, she did not wish to were heavy armor that would slow her down. "Hi! My names Amy you can call me Angel." she said.
"O.K, but why Angel." I asked.
"Amy is my real name, it's what Rinkishu calls me by, but everyone else calls me Angel my last name and nick name." She replied.
My legs were sore from how I seeped, Angel saw how my right arm was injured and a scar was on it. She put her hand on my arm with out even asking and a light aura shined off her hand. I was halved blinded by it, but after words my arm was much better.
"Thats probably the reason they call you Angel." I said.
""Why?" She asked.
"You've got then angel's touch." I replied.
Her cheeks turned bright pink as if she was blushing. She began to open the closet and sorted through the tons of clothes and found a white vest with blue lined edges, matching pants, arm bands, and threw them to me. "Here" she said.
"Rinkishu told me to get your Regiment Outfit. I hope you like white and blue?" She added.
"It's fine." I said.
"Well come on as soon as you get the outfit on, there breakfast down stairs." She said joyfully.
I fitted on the outfit, and surprisingly it fit me. As soon as I putted the outfit on my head begin to ache some. I saw visions of someone I had never seen before, it was a long black haired man, with dark black armor, and a even darker sword twice his size. The words popped into my were "Dark Edge, Blood Prodigy, and Doom Prodigy."
I came to the room were dining tables were fixed up and plates were laid for fellow members. There was ham, a small glass of goonsie, and other great smelling food. I sat down by the only person I knew, Angel. She smiled as she saw me sat by her. "Alan" She said.
"If you follow me all the time like a puppy people will start thinking you like me or something." She said.
I moved to the side a bit. She said it as a joke, but it was kinda of true I did kinda like her. She was one of the few girls I met and she was pretty nice. "Angel and Alan sitting in a tree." I heard across the table.
"Alan, meet Lance." Angel said.
"He can be a pest sometimes, but he'll be of some help every now and then." She added.
"Hi!" He said.
"Hope I didn't offend you I was just playing around." He said again.
"No big deal for me, it's your choose if you want a Wind Blade around your neck." I said.
His face began to turn somewhat pale, and he was quiet for awhile. Everyone else around the table gave a faint laugh, but it was of no concern to me. Angel was goining to reach for her Goonsie, until Rinkishu put the blade in front of her. "Now Amy, you know what happened last time you drank." Rinkishu said as if he was her parent.
"Hi Rink!" Lance said.
Rinkishu gave a faint nod to Lance across the table and then quickly gained his focus back at Angel with her hand as far away from the cup of Goonsie as possible.
"Yes Rinkishu." She said.
"And we do not want to be crazy on the first day of Alan here." He added.
"Yes Rinkishu." She said again.
It was if they were a child and parent teaching a lesson. Rinkishu grabbed a cup of Goonsie and got his blade and tapped it on the table to get the Regiments attention. "Hello team, as you know we have given you all Goonsie with a special occasion. A new member everyone, meet Alan." He said.
I felt as if I was the center of the attention. I gave a quick look at everyone just to see the faces of the many members. "Ummm.... he shy." Angel said.
Thank god I thought for a second. I gave a nod to let Angel know my thanks. She gave a nod back and got up. "Well Alan unless you you need me to hold your hand through your missions, then I'm off." She said.
She gave a quick kiss on my cheek and walk faster then normal away. Lance looked at with a smile until I put my hand in a way that my Wind Blade could be summoned right at the moment. He looked away and he shuted up....



Chapter Seven: A Spar


As I have learned at the Regiment that Rinkishu pushes you to the limit. I was told this by many members of the Regiment. It was either Angel or Lance who told me this. My mind kept hoping that they were just over reacting. Unfortunately they were'nt. The first thing I was told to do in training by Rinkishu was spar with Angel.
"O.K Alan you're first training is goining to be were you stand in rank, and to do that you must spar with Angel." He said.
She stepped in the small arena that we were in, she was wearing her clothes that I had first met her in and a blade. The blade was called "Heart Attack". "Well, both of you go on, and hold nothing back, unless you wish to sruc the floor stonight." Rinkishu said.
"Well let us begin Alan." She said as if she meant no harm.
"Gladly." I said.
I had to stay focus and make sure I did not hurt her, how strong was she I wondered. We stepped onto opposite sides of the arena. "Begin!" Rinkishu said.
We both begin the fight circleing each other, she had her blade out. I decided to summon the Wind Blade. It appeared in my hand and I prepared for battle. We continued to circle each other until she realized I was slowly gaining speed. I went faster after every turn until a tornado began to be created. As soon as she saw it she jumped to the air to land somewhere across the arena.
I decided to jump into the tornado, unlike most people I could control the wind so I was able jump in and not be harmed. I looked out the tornadoe to see Angel stareing at me. I controled the tornado to dash at her. She flipped out the way. I jumped out the tornadoe only to be greeted by her slashing away at me with her blade.
I backed away quickly as my feet barely touched the ground. I had my Wind Blade in my hand, I started to slash at her and she jumped to the air. She followed me to the air and we began to slash away. I resummoned my blade and gave a punch. It connected she flew across the arena. I realized what I had done and went to the ground and ran to catch her. I managed to catch her and she was in my arms. There she laid in my arms injured. "Are you O.K" I asked.
She put her hand on her cheek were the bruise laid and the aura showed again. She healed imediatly, I had forgotten her cleric powers and felt halved stupid at the time. I began to hear a clap and I turned my head to see Rinkishu smiling ,clapping. "That will be enough, you start your training tommarow. You and Angel will be partners." He said. "Cool!" Both Angel and I said.



Chapter Eight: That Night


I was sound asleep in my bed across the hall, in The Regiment. I was in a deep sleep and I had a dream or as I hope was a dream. I began to see images of the man in black armor and the huge sword. He was walking to a white crystal that had a certain glow to it. He had a smirk on his face and raised his blade above the crystal.
I began to sweat and felt pain in my heart. I clutched my chest as if I was dieing. The man in the black armor dropped his sword toward the crystal an I felt almost dead. "No!" I yelled as quickly as possible as I awoken from my horrible sleep.
Angel quickly awoken beside me in the bed across me in the room as shocked as possible. She turned pale and jumped out of her bed and landed on her feet running toward me. She put her hand on my chest to stop me in my panic, but at the corner of her eye she began to become surprised to realized markings on my body that were glowing a bright blue. She quickly yelled my name. "Alan it's O.K." She said.
I realized what I was doing and saw how I was sweating all over. I quickly returned from my panic. My head ached and I was feeling horrible. Even worst then when Rinkishu beat me to my senses. "Are you O.K." she said.
She told me of my markings on my body and I looked to my chest to realize the glowing markings on me. I was shocked of myself. I put my hand on the markings noticing that they lead to my arms, legs, chest, and back. They seem like nothing I had ever seen before. I asked Angel to try to see if they were a scar, but nothing happened. "We have to keep this a secret among us." I whispered.
"No.." She hissed.
"Rinkishu needs to know." She added.
"No, who knows what he will do, he could kick me out the Regiment." I said.
"Understood" She said.
When we laid back down at our beds, I began to feel pain again because of the coming dream. "Alan" Angel said.
"Nothing.... its nothing." I replied with.
She began to get up from her bed, and check over me. "I'm going to check on you for now on." She said.
"Very well." I said.
I had fail asleep for a few seconds, but then awoke later. It was about four o' clock. so there was no point in going back asleep. Angel also got up. We began to hear foot steps in the hall. I gave a nod to her telling her to stay in bed.
I putted on my dark like clothes in order for sneaking. As I opened my door to the hall I noticed the silver robe at the feet of the person. I immediately knew who it was. It was Rinkishu. I decided to follow him he paused and stopped for a second and so did my heart.
He turned around as I jumped to the roof and hung by a wood piece. He acted as if nothing was there and he continued to walk. I followed him for awhile across the building until he stopped in front of a brick wall. he knocked on a brick and there the brick wall opened. There was like a library.
He walked into it and picked up a book. He read over it for awhile as I stayed on a wood piece on the roof. He left the library and left the book on the table he was reading at. As he left I landed on my feet to the floor, and checked the book. I read the title. It was a shocking feeling as I checked it. "The Blood Prodigy" It said.
I turned pale, but then quickly realized that the door was closing I dashed at high speed and managed to escape. I walked to my room and Angel awoke, just before i hid the book under my bed. Lance walked in. Seeing me and Angel awake, I had my shirt off and Lance said nothing and walked away. Angel and I heard across the hall. "What the heck is wrong with people!" Lance said.
"Go to bed Lance." Rinkishu said from his room.
"Sorry Rink." I heard from Lance.
