~Damon pov~

Frodo, in order to help him...you must go. There are things about the young Dark Lord you won't understand.

The demonic scream forced Damon to look back at the park before snapping his eyes back to Frodo.

I'm a 400 year old vampire who fears him....and I only know of stories from the elders of what happened almost 500 years ago with his predecessor. Please, go and only return when it is safe.

~Zak pov~

Whatever humanity, whatever caring soul was left in Zak's body was destroyed. The ground shook as more of the quite explosive black smoke curled around his feet, this time taking the forms of snakes and wolves.

My God...

The vampire didn't have enough time to react as one snake shot out, wrapping itself around his chest, pinning his arms down. The silver and lavender eyes looked over at Zak, watching as he simply rolled his neck and stared at his arms.

My sire told me I was different...didn't realize what he meant.

We didn't think it was true...you are Him.

Zak's eyes snapped back up to the downed vampire, Who is Him?

I already told you. 1190 was the year your great grandfather lost his life to the power you now posses.

This vampire was more useful to Zak alive than dead...How so?

They called him the Dark Lord. It wasn't that creative to be honest. He was Lord of the lands that the Abbey and the grounds where your childhood home sits. He also practiced in very dark magic. Some say he was given the powers of Darkness from the universe's darkest creatures.

That makes...sense? I doubt he was giving powers that dark...Nova...

Zak's voice trailed off and he shook violently, causing not only the ice and smoke to fly towards what used to be a burger joint but the lighting as well. The explosion made the ground tremble violently. Nothing could fix this...the black snake vanished, allowing the vampire to stand.

Leave before I decide to turn you into a pile of ash.

The vampire didn't need to be told twice as he sprinted to the main gate. He barely jumped over the broken barricade when a wall of solid black ice created a wall seperating Zak from the rest of the world.

Well... That went...so not according to plan
