1685 Words
As Ayame stands confused and bewildered by this change of nature, her eyes turn even wilder when the structure around her turns into a palace quarters at a instant. "What.. in the.." echoed Ayame, shocked by this new nature until she is disturbed by a figure yet to reveal herself from the curtains aside. "Hello Ayame.." said the figure in voice of a feminine figure to which she turns, and finds herself riddled with confusion when the very figure that called her, turned out to be the same face that wore this dress she is wearing right now. "You're... you're here.. this is.." said Ayame until she finishes her sentence. "Still inside your mind, yes... I've brought you in a constructive fabrication from my memories, should you recognize this place from memories of mine." said the woman. "Who are you? why are you saying that?" asked Ayame to which the woman smiles, then takes a few steps closer. "You have no idea, don't you? not even the slightest clue of how you ended up in here." said the woman. "I came here, to my home, on my own will, I didn't end up anywhere." said Ayame. "Wrong, you were brought here.. as I was, to show you the truth, which was also mine." said the woman. "I don't understand." said Ayame. "Neither do I, but it is the will, the will remains unchanged, and it shall be revealed as it always should have, staring with this dress we share." said the woman. "The dress.. your dress, why am I wearing it? what the hell is going on?" asked Ayame when her head starts to sprain of pain, reflecting memories of past, not from her life, but the lives of many in which she is reflected by one of her own appearance which was a another figure entirely, soon her pain sprains away when she reappears within a instance of a man with a crown ages before the rule of vampires, where monsters and might were nothing but fairy tales. "Why am I being charged? what did I do?" asked herself towards the crowned figure, revealed to be a king. "You did everything! since the moment you walked in my palace as king, this entire kingdom suffered of omens and destructions, the town believed you are cursed!" shouted the king. "My king, please, I am not cursed! I did nothing wrong, please, believe me!" shouted herself until her vision once again shatters back into plain white reflections, then turns dark at a instant. As she wakes up, she soon finds herself back in the very palace quarters with the women who is yet to reveal herself. "You saw it, didn't you? my memories, they were all there, you reflected on them." asked the woman. "I.. I saw someone, a king, he was blaming me, cursing me for all the bad omens that have happened to him, he called me.. cursed." said Ayame to which the woman grins, revealing her fangs within as Ayame then starts to realise who she really was after all this time. "You.. you were her, I saw your memory." said Ayame. "Correct.. you did saw it, but the question remains is, who am I then?" asked the woman. "I don't know, you do look familiar, but I do not know who you are." said Ayame. "Of course you don't, none of them do, not even it's so called makers, after all, aren't I meant to be forgotten from history?" asked the women. "From who's history? War World's?" asked Ayame. "No dear, the history of my race, the race that rules the universe, I am Queen Carmila, the first vampire, in soul and blood." said the women in which Ayame finds herself drowned in shock. "You.. you're the first vampire? how?" asked Ayame. "Let me show how." said Carmila who with a simple snap of her finger, brings back the two of them towards the memory that happened before Ayame saw, a place where Carmila and the very king who cursed her, now bides to wed her in front of millions. "That's.. you, the king, he is your.. husband?" asked Ayame. "He was.. Baron Vordenburg, they called him, but he was no Baron, he was a monster, all the pain, the tortures he put me through, it was unspeakable, yet still, I was faithful to him, I supported him, loved him like he was my soul and heart, it all came to an end the day I was killed." said Carmila. "You were killed?" asked Ayame to which Carmila snaps her finger, changing the structure of this plane into the outdoors of a cemetery beneath a church, where Carmila is covered by wood planks while atop of it, she is tied to a pole by chains, and was set ablaze on fire while all people of her kingdom watch and cheer in spite of her suffering through it as the Baron watches it from the hills above. "Please let me go! please.. please.. I didn't do anything, I swear, I only prayed for our kingdom's wealth, I had nothing to do with the misfortunes that befall on us!" cried young Carmila until the baron interrupts. "Lies! don't believe a word that woman says, she is responsible for everything.. I was a thriving renowned king that ruled benevolently, it all came to an end the day I met her, she bewitched me, seduced me into marrying her, used me to suit all her wealthy needs, resulting in us, earning the wrath of the gods, and the eye of Satan which was the reason for our downfall, if it wasn't for her, we would have never fallen, Styria would have still been ours!" shouted Baron Vordenburg. "I told you, like a million times, not to invade the northmen, to welcome them as allies, had you listen to me, you would have never lost Striya in the first place." cried Carmila. "Shut up, you filthy hag, don't you dare try and use your wits to confuse us, we know better now, we know you are the cause of our problem, and dealing with you, will redeem us of Satan's gaze, and grant us the blessings we need to defeat the northmen, not join them like spineless idiots!" shouted Baron Vordenburg as the people cheer, and chant the proud name of baron while young Carmila burns under the cloak of extreme heat, caused by the flame. "My king please.. I'll do whatever you want, I'll say whatever you have to say, I promise, I will never speak against you, let me go, it burns! it pains me! please.. I am begging you! please let me go!" cried Carmila, screaming to let her out in which Baron and the people watch as she burns slowly. "You die! witch! the evil will be cleansed!" shouted a child amongst the crowd, one whom Carmila once cared for like she was her own child. "I loved you.. I loved you all urghhh! how can you do this to me? how can you all bare what he's doing this to me?" asked Carmila as the people remain ignorant of her words, in which Carmila's cries and pleas soon turns into words of rage while half her body burns in flame. "This isn't over! this will not go unpunished! you think I am the reason for your curse? the reason why everyone of you are rotting, why the northman thrive while you fall, is because of your lies, and deceit which you've built as foundations for this kingdom, it will not last, and it will fall, just like Striya!" shouted Carmila until Baron Vordenburg interrupts. "Shut up, hag! your words mean nothing, with you done, we will march onto Stryia, we will take back our kingdom from those monsters, once you are cleansed from this world, we will win in the coming days, no thanks to you." said Baron Vordenburg. "No, you will not! even if you free yourself from the northmen, for all your black hearts and filthy little minds! a storm will come that will wipe you all out! a race.. born from my blood, will cleanse you all from this earth on the night of blood moon! mark my words!" shouted Carmila as her last words until the flame completely consumes her. Witnessing this, Ayame's eyes are flooded with tears, witnessing the horrific fate that she had to go through, and how it led to the creations of vampires. "Race of blood, born from your blood, you created the vampires?" asked Ayame. "They were born from my blood and curse, I didn't create them.. but I was.. resurrected by the vampires, a century later.. it was when I rose as the first Vampire Queen that ruled over all races, showing that unity, can be obtained through blood and chaos." said Carmila. "But something went wrong, didn't it? what happened?" asked Ayame. "They happened." said Carmila, shifting the plane into far future where she shows the battle between vampires and humans against the likes of the first demons that came into the world, led by none other than Ahriman himself. "Demons." said Ayame as Carmila finishes her sentence. "From hell, driven by the chaos and blood we caused in our mission to conquer the universe, we attracted demons from hell, the worst type of ones." said Carmila. "But you fought them back, didn't you?" asked Ayame. "We did, the first time, then they came again, and we defended, then again, and again, it never stopped until we fell, that is when they took over our world, and made it into their sickening version of hell." said Carmila. "If they consumed your world, how did the vampires and humans continue to exist?" asked Ayame. "Because, when we fell, I sent my children into the stars, hoping they could find a new home, some did, some didn't, others.. well, they led weaklings like the Azirel Family rise to power which led to all their downfall, thus, the history, the blood of my legacy is dusted in this grave, until you came." said Carmila.
