Joanna screams without making sound. Total fear and horror in her eyes. Claudius changes back into the man and with sad eyes he views how the young woman slowly dies underneath him. A single tear rolls down his cheek. As if that tear represents another life loss.

He curses when he stands up. Her blood runs down over his chest. Without making a sound he gets dressed and then covers her dead body. Sick he staggers to the window. He kneels down and looks up to the moon. " Forgive me for what i have done. Help me contain the beast within me. I know i am not worthy off asking such a thing. But i need to stop myself from killing and therefore i need your help. Purify my blood so that i can become mortal and my family is released off this terrible curse." Claudius sits in silence, praying to an unknown god.

Again the door opens behind him. " Master?" Claudius looks over his shoulder.

" Go away and leave me alone Jonas." His head turns to face the moon again. His blood is calm now, his soul has found satisfaction. " I will get rid of the body master. Why do you torture yourself this way? Accept what you are and your life would be so much easier without this pain." The little chubby man looks at his elegant master. He served his father before him, who was a vampire too. But this boy is creating a living hell for himself by caring for mortals.

" Before you leave Jonas, tell me something. Are the others awake?" Claudius whispers softly. Surprised with this question Jonas hesitates with his answer. " Yes master they are awake. And they are having a party down stairs as you already know. They invited some villagers to the castle. They are hungry master and need to feed themselves." Worried Jonas looks at the dark shape of his master. An elegant hand waves in the air. Ordering the loyal servant to leave the room.

This has to end now. He can’t live this way any longer. With a deep sigh Claudius stands up en opens the windows. He swiftly jumps outside and flies down to the lower floors of the enormous castle. He hears the loud music and laughter off the party. Deep down he knows what he has to do. He created those beasts so he has to stop them as well. Fast he flies down until he sees the window he was looking for. Inside a bloody party continues. Villagers scream when they see how their friends are killed. The vampires laugh out loud and grab them to drink their with fear filled blood. The whole room is drenched in dark red blood. Bodies lie all over the place. White and without any life juice left. Obscene scenes are shown when the vampires make love to some villagers before slaughtering them.

A wild orgy is interrupted when the windows fly open. They all stop with what they are doing when they see the dark shape of a man hanging in the air. All that is heard is the soft crying of the remaining women. To weak to flee from the room.

" Enough!" Claudius’s deep voice resounds through the large room. His eyes burn with hate for his own kind. The other vampires look up to him in fear. Some start to wail when they see their master. Others nervously wait, their faces covered with blood. Claudius views the room and sees the slaughtering that happened earlier on. Then his eyes start to burn with a red light. His hands glow in the darkness of the night. The vampires scream in fear when they realize what he is going to do. They start to run and fly through the room, trying to escape their own creator. Some throw themselves at his feet begging for mercy. They are the first to die. Burning flashes of light pierce their hearts and rip them open. Their own blood blends with those of their victims. Total rage fills up Claudius. Again he sends his flashes through the room. Knocking down those on the ground, killing them with one movement of a finger. He flies into the room and grabs a few vampires by the throat, allowing them to feel his hate penetrate their bodies. The last thing they see before they die are the burning red eyes.

Others try to fight back. They scream and hiss in anger and swiftly fly around Claudius trying to find a weak spot. Some stretch their claws to get a piece of their former master. Claudius laughs and licks his lips in pleasure. Slaughtering them like they have done with the mortals.
