Chapter 1 - I am not a hero

The vampires skulked around the small unsuspecting home, attempting to drape themselves in the darkness of the night. But the moonlight's rays still illuminated the evil that lurked in the shadows. 

My eyes traced over the blood suckers that lifted the window and crawled inside the home. One, two, three, four. Two large, one small and one medium height. The house was small, so it shouldn't be a big family. That must mean one of them is a baby. Crap, maybe an Ambrio vampire. This might be pretty dangerous…

Oh well. Someone's gotta save them. I stood up straight from the branch of the tree and leaped off. I commanded the wind around me and a breeze blew in. The cool air coiled itself around my body and gave me a slow descent down. As I came down I made the air silence my footsteps as my toes touched the floor. I kneeled down and reached back for the handle of my katana, then dashed off towards the home. The wind pushed me forward and I focused on keeping my steps silent. 

It didn't take me long to arrive at the window, and I carefully leaped inside. I commanded the wind to course through the home and I could feel it running over the four. While also running over what I presumed to be the owner's bodies. Two were laying down in one room and one in another. The four people who were standing were in the room with two bodies lying down. Those must've been the parents, I gotta move fast. I focused the air under my feet and dashed forward, keeping my steps silent and pushing myself forward on the wind. 

It didn't take me long to race down the hall and find the demons standing over the parents bed. I focused on the tall one and leaped at him. At the last second I focused all of the wind on the back of my katana and sliced through the monster's neck. Blood sprayed from the body and began to rain over the other three and the bed. 

The three vampires spun towards me, their scarlet eyes in shock. But before they could move, I dashed forward at the other large one. I didn't have enough reach for his head, but I did manage to slice through its arm. I spun around and stepped forward, leaping into the air and finally slicing through the monster's neck. 

Its blood rained down over the room and its body dropped to the floor. While the medium height woman stared in shock. Her mouth hung open as she stared at the two corpses on the floor next to her. 

"Craig!" She yelled. 

I whiped the blood from my sword onto the floor and eyed her. Behind me the parents started to move and it wasn't long before they started screaming. However, I kept my eyes on the two vamps left. 

"Don't move!" I yelled and pointed my blade at the parents. "They'll kill you if you move, stay where you are."

"Run, Juan." The female vamp said and shoved the shorter vampire toward the doorway.

I held out my hand and used the wind to shut the door, but as the air tunnel came to shut the door. The short one just burst right through it. 

No the child!

I turned back to the female vampire and saw she was upon me with her sharp claws raised. I quickly lifted my blade to block, and she rammed her fist into it. She was way too strong, and sent me flying back through the door. I crashed on my butt and used the wind to flip me over back to my feet. As soon as I looked up, I was met with the quickness of the vampire again. She swung at me wildly and I parried with my blade, using the wind to help me push back against her.

Soon we clashed and met in the middle. She growled and had a pushing match against me. Her scarlet eyes beaming into my own. 

"Who are you?" She growled.

I smirked. "Might as well call me a Bellmont."

"You Hunters should give up. Our messiah is coming back ya know." She grunted and kicked me in my stomach.

Thankfully I summoned the air to cushion my blow, but it still sent me flying.

It sent me flying back and I quickly summoned the air around me to cushion my blow. Even so, I still crashed into the kitchen table and got the wind knocked out of me. The warm sensation of my blood ran down my arm and I glanced over to see wood from the table sticking out of me. 

The vamp started to laugh and stepped towards me. 

"I see now! You're no Hunter! You're just a freaky kid!" 

I groaned and sat up. "Yeah, it's crazy your alphas were dropped by a seventeen year old with nothing but a sword, huh?"

She growled and ran at me. "You're dead twerp!"

I sat up more and stared at a metal chair and swiped my two fingers across at her. Then the chair flew across the room and rammed into her skull. She screeched like a hurt dog and spun around. That's when I launched myself up with the wind and grabbed my blade with both hands, slicing through her neck. Her head dropped to the floor. I took a moment to catch my breath and yanked a large splinter of wood from my arm. Then I saw a little girl running from the other end of the hall. She was holding her shoulder, and the short vampire was chasing her. 

Goosebumps ran over my skin as I saw the popping veins and bloody mouth on the short vamp. There was no mistaking it now. That short one was definitely an Ambrio vampire. I launched myself forward with the wind and kneed the vampire in the face. It flew back and slammed against the wall.

"I'm not gonna let you touch that child!" I yelled. 

I raised my blade and went to slash his throat, but he threw his body at me, followed by a loud pop. His shoulder rammed into me and my lunch came up. I flew back and crashed into the wall. 

"You don't understand! I don't want to do this!" The vamp yelled. "But I have to! I have a fiance! I have a wedding! I need to feed!"

I groaned and spit the blood and vomit from my lips. Then I pushed myself up on the wall and got to my feet. 

"So what?" I coughed out. "Does that little girl deserve any less of a future? Just because you want one!"

"Then you take her place!" He said and limped towards me. "I didn't want this. I didn't ask to be bit! But I'm not gonna just lay down and die now."

My eyes focused on his leg, and I saw it was busted up and bloody. I see, he doesn't know how to control himself yet. He must've broken his leg when he rammed into me. 

"That's why I hate you vampires. There's never any alternative." I huffed and gripped the handle of my blade harder. "You're nothing but a leech. If you really cared. You'd kill yourself before you ended up eating your wife."

He glared at me and growled, baring his sharp teeth. "I'm gonna return to Aaron!" He yelled and charged at me. 

I flicked my fingers up at him while I focused on the vampire woman's severed head. It flew up and rammed him in the face. He tried to slide to a stop, and ended up falling face first on the floor. I launched myself at him. And raised my blade, focusing the air around it, adding a slicing effect with the wind. While the helpless vamp sprawled around on the floor and tried to clean the blood from his eyes. 

It wasn't long before I came down on him and sliced through his neck and the floor. He gave out one final scream before he was silenced forever. I took a moment to catch my breath and wipe the sweat from my brow. 

"Natalia! Natalia please!" A woman's voice screamed from the parents bedroom. 

That's when it dawned on me. The little girl who ran away earlier. She was holding her shoulder right? It couldn't be…

Suddenly my legs felt like they had weights attached to them as I slowly walked towards the voices. As I walked down the halls, they changed to something familiar. That's right, I remember this. I kept strolling down the hall and when I got to the room, I saw my sister. The vampire held her body like a doll, while blood flowed down from her throat. 

"J-johnny." She cried and reached for me. 

I came to a stop at the door and the scene turned back to normal. And I saw the dad holding a blanket over something in the covers. Tears ran down his face as he tried to push back whatever hid beneath back. My eyes trailed over to the bed, and a huge puddle of blood stained the mattress and the sheets. All leading up to the mother, who had her throat ripped up. 

"Natalia! Natalia! Please stop!" The man yelled. 

While something growled underneath. I see, the daughter did this…

The man looked up at me, and for a moment I saw my sister's eyes again. 

"Please, Sir! You killed them right? The monsters!? You have to help my daughter!" He begged. 

'Please Johnny! Help!' My sister's voice echoed in the back of my mind. 

I raised my blade up. "Don't blame yourself. It's not your fault."

"W-what? What're you doing!"

"I'm sorry." I mumbled.

That's right. Those heroes I see in my comics and games. Those endings aren't real. 

I am not a hero.
