I knew Cola exist during that time but I had no idea Fanta did too, I learned something. Lol
I had a gif to express the feels displayed in ths chapter but I've lost it. Nevertheless, I look forward to Gertraud' and co. adventure and where you take them into the cold war.
I think it is safe to say this chapter will incite a lot of feels (what is it with us and chapters that do hence lately?)
Chapter 23: Val… moreentinstag. Febraur 14. 1950.
Today was Valentine’s Day. Usually, we did not bother with such a day, but this once was an exception; an experiment.
I awoke, finding that the bed felt unusually soft and large. The walls were navy blue in colour compared to their usually dull and worn wooden colour. This was not right. In shock, I shot up into a sitting position.
The room had a dresser in the corner, complete with a mirror, stool and two jewellery boxes. In the corner stood a desk with my leather coat cast over its seat and several pieces of writing tools cast over the desktop.
‘What is wrong, Hunter?’ came a concerned tone from my side.
Turning to meet this sound, I found Gertraud; hair shrivelled from sleep and in white nightwear.
It started to come back to me.
Following the Soviet vic… [view original content]
Did not mean to send mixed messages but Robert is trying to contact Frank....Rose is sadly, the majority of people that I've come out to. They react like this and anger, mixed with confusion and hurt, makes a person say things they normally wouldn't....She'll come around, like Jersey but it takes time. RJ is indeed an awesome kid and is too much like his mother.
Tetra sees that Robert was trying to get a hold of Frank Tetra is happy. Reads on to see Robert calls Rose Tetra thinks it won't be that big… more of a deal. Rose starts being absolutely rude Tetra is pretty mad, Tetra finishes the conversation and even he was hurt by Roses words and starts to shed tears. Tetra reads on to see RJ has been awoken and sees he's such an awesome kid Tetra begins to cry more tears but now happy tears.
Damn it JJ! No more man my heart can't take it anymore man! But man I've said this again and I will again right here RJ is one of the coolest kids ever, we need more like him. And Rose, I know you're hurt but come on now was that really necessary? Those words were cruel, I hope she apologizes or something.
Awesome stuff man! As always I look forward to more!
Yes! Hopefully one of these times Frank will answer I hope! I hope so because those were really mean things to say, they even hurt me! I hear this in hopes that Lylas words might not sting and she may be a bit more nice and comforting then
It's alright man although I hope this whole feels thing will die down soon! Although I know it won't XD
Did not mean to send mixed messages but Robert is trying to contact Frank....Rose is sadly, the majority of people that I've come out to.

Sorry for the feels again, dude! XD
So I somehow managed to find the inspiration to write this, tbh I put it down to a lot of music If you have any questions about the previous chapter then don't hesitate to ask! Enjoy!!! (This chapter is a bit 'graphic'...)
Vampire Challenge Chapter 3 – You Can’t Fight It
“Jayne?... J-Jayne?” Nick continued to cradle his love, she didn’t move a muscle; Nick pressed his ear against Jayne’s chest and listened intently for a heartbeat, yet there was no such thump present anymore. Nick could’ve sworn that tears were tugging at the corners of his eyes, but those salty drops of sadness never flowed, he wouldn’t let them.
But then Jayne’s body went from limp to stiff, she opened her eyes revealing that they had turned a hideous shade of red. Her skin went pale and cold, her breathe was slow and forced; she rose up onto her feet from a lying position, like something out of a horror movie. Nick crawled backwards a little as Jayne looked at her hands and studied them like she had never seen them before, she did the same to her torso, her hair, her legs... she even pressed her fingers to her face to get a feel of its shape.
Nick cautiously stood up “Jayne?” Jayne’s head whipped round to face Nick, her eyes were still red and her teeth had become pointed. She had become a Fledgling Vampire. Nick staggered backwards a bit as Jayne turned her body towards him, it wasn’t so much fear that made Nick weary, but rather that he didn’t want to have to hurt Jayne, she had been hurt more than enough in her life...
Jayne walked forwards with such alluring grace, her hips swaying from side to side; she reached a hand to Nick’s cheek and stroked it. Her touch was so cold it made Nick wince a little. She brought her mouth to Nick’s ear and breathed into it, causing him to freeze a little himself and exhale with a slight shudder. As Jayne’s right hand snaked its way down to Nick’s crotch, her other hand moved behind his head and pulled him in for a kiss.
The feeling of sharpened incisors was a strange sensation on Nick’s tongue; they had the faintest taste of ‘sweetness’ to them, obviously the Vampire venom, but the curse itself wouldn’t work on Nick the way it would for a more ‘normal’ person... Jayne wasn’t intending on stopping this kiss anytime soon, and if the situation wasn’t so strange then Nick would’ve gladly continued with it, but he pulled away.
“Jayne, you need to stop, ok. We need to fix this” Jayne paid little attention to Nick’s words as she grinned and literally de-materialised her clothes until she was left in her sexy red lingerie, her bra however, fell gently to the ground, as Nick had already unhooked it earlier. Nick couldn’t keep his mouth from gaping open “Holy crap, I always forget how fucking sexy this woman is!” Jayne walked towards Nick again and threw him onto the sofa; Nick was a lot more compelled to play along now.
Jayne ripped off Nick’s t-shirt and pressed her chest against his own as she kissed him again. Nick wrapped his arms around Jayne’s back and smoothed his hands over the soft expanse of her pale skin; she bit Nick’s lower lip and pulled away with a suck, moving towards his neck. If Nick had realised why he was experiencing so much ecstasy right now, then he would’ve stopped Jayne from biting into his neck, and performing The Kiss.
O The Homelands, the Snow Queen’s castle
“Oh Joe, why must you leave me so soon?” The Snow Queen, Lumi, was naked and perched on her forearms on her lavish bed, watching a grey haired man change back into his clothes.
The man looks back and cradles Lumi’s head in his palms as he kisses her with a loving passion “I’m sorry my dear, but duty calls, and no doubt my boy’s are already waiting for me downstairs” The man spoke with a gruff Irish accent; Lumi looked saddened as Joe pulled away and returned to replacing his clothes to his strong body.
For a Werewolf (and an older man as well) he and her shared a unique connection, Lumi could almost say that she ‘loved’ Joe, and Joe certainly held affections of a similar nature towards the ice-cold beauty, but the cold didn’t bother Joe one bit, perks of being a Wolf...
Joe finally finished putting on his attire: black leather riding boots, black slacks, a white shirt underneath a thick, black tunic, and a gray sash around his waist. He carried no weapons however, he needed only to take them from his opponents and use them until they were no longer useful. Joe gives Lumi a final kiss and heads out of her room; he goes downstairs to meet his ‘boys’.
“Well you took your sweet time” A blonde haired man said to Joe, Joe paid no attention as he finished the flight of stairs.
Joe was an older looking man in his mid 40’s at least, his face bore the signs of a man of action, he was certainly not as handsome as he used to be, but he wasn’t entirely unappealing in spite of his battle scars. He had short grey hair with light stubble and hazel coloured eyes. His physique was bulky in a sense of strength, which was Joe’s biggest advantage; he wasn’t as quick as his 2 companions (his son, Markus, and his nephew, Kristo) but if you wanted someone to break every bone in a man’s face with a single punch, then Joe was your Werewolf.
His nephew, Kristo, was a much younger looking man in his early 20’s, he had a remarkably cute face with blue eyes and naturally blonde hair that was shoulder length and wavy, he also had a neatly trimmed beard and moustache. Kristo was an in-betweener compared to his 2 companions; strength and speed were both on his side in equal quantity, though overall, athleticism was more Kristo’s thing. He enjoyed using acrobatic manoeuvres to confuse and decimate his opponents, his youth being a major contributor to his stamina along with his being a Werewolf. He spoke with a smooth Irish accent that could make any woman blush with delight.
Markus was Joe’s son and looked closer to being in his 30’s, he had dark brown hair that went just past his shoulders, and it was ‘heavy’, frankly it didn’t ‘wave’ much at all. He possessed light stubble much like his Father and similarly coloured hazel eyes. Markus was the quieter of the 2 but spoke when necessary; he had speed on his side and a feral nature that made him a vicious opponent in a fight. Markus always had a serious look about him, which did alienate him from other people’s affections, though he did possess a very nice smile and was generally shy around women. His accent was also Irish, though it had a deeper tone than Kristo’s.
Much like Joe, Markus and Kristo wore the exact same attire and did not carry any weapons to speak of, though the 3 did enjoy using swords whenever possible. Joe looks between the 2 “So where do we go next, lads?” in response Kristo unfolded his arms and pulled out a piece of parchment from his belt, he showed it to Joe.
Joe studied the parchment and looked at Kristo again with his mouth slightly open “The Prince is in Fabletown?!”Kristo nodded and points to the signature at the bottom of the parchment “Look who signed it” Joe studies the signature, though he dares to think why a Horseman would want the Prince dead...
Joe folds the parchment and tosses it into a nearby torch, watching it burn away into ash. The 3 men briskly walk away from the Snow Queen’s castle and begin sprinting as soon as they are clear of its drawbridge; they had a mission to complete, and money to earn, no matter the cost.
O Back in Nick’s apartment
Nick woke up in his bed feeling very strange, he felt relaxed and tired all at once. Looking at his clock on his bedside table, Nick noticed that it was only 1am, he had been asleep for barely an hour! As he rose to his feet, he looked around and saw no sign of his beloved Jayne, though his foul black blood was present in tiny droplets on his pillow; Nick felt a throbbing sensation on his neck and felt the bite.
“No! No, no, no, NO!!” Nick was in too much shock to be able to comprehend the situation, how was he infected? He was a Harbinger, an agent of Death himself; this curse shouldn’t have affected him! Then again, how could Nick resist the advances of his lady? He allowed himself to become weak and therefore the infection was allowed to spread; Nick ran his tongue along his incisors and found them to be sharp and slightly sweet.
“Jayne?!” Nick called out but the apartment was empty, where the hell did she go? Before Nick could get up, he heard his jukebox start playing Poison by Alice Cooper... then 3 familiar voices started singing along with the chorus.
“I wanna love ya but you better not touch (don’t touch) I wanna hold you but my senses tell me to stop, I wanna kiss you but I want it too much (too much) I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison! Ahhhhhhhhh, your poison running through my veins!”
Nick looked over his bedroom railing and saw Galen, Cormac and Aleesha in their human forms all singing in time with the lyrics, what kind of a mockery was this? Nick didn’t bother with them just yet however as he changed into a pair of jeans and a black tank shirt.
They continued to sing as he walked down the stairs towards them “I hear you callin’ and it’s needles and pins (and pins) I wanna hurt you just to hear you screaming my name, Don’t wanna touch you but you’re under my skin (deep in) I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison!”
Before they could continue the chorus however, Nick grabs Galen and forces him against the well, Galen merely smirked and refused to fight back as Nick effortlessly lifted him as far as his arms could reach by the collar of his silvery tunic “Turn that off, Eesh”
Aleesha turned off the jukebox and planted herself on Nick’s sofa, casually throwing Jayne’s underwear off of it as she did so. Cormac remained standing as Nick asked the questions “What do you want?” Galen glared at his Brother for a while before gesturing behind Nick’s shoulder “HE wants a word with you” Nick looked back and saw Death standing behind him.
Nick let Galen go, but before War’s Harbinger could make a remark, Nick kicked him straight through the wall of his apartment and into Damien’s. Damien jumps as he sees the ghostly figure get up and brush himself down, he looks at the wall and back at Galen before speaking “Family issues again?” Galen ignores Damien as he steps back into Nick’s apartment; Damien shrugs to himself and continues to read a Playboy magazine as he smokes “You’re paying for my wall just so you know, you pasty jackass!”
Nick had barely enough time to speak to his Father when Death pointed his finger at the bite on Nick’s neck “Do you know what you have allowed yourself to become!” Nick backed away a little as Death moved closer to him “You fucking idiot! You’ve allowed the Prince to turn you into one of his night-walking scum!”
Nick had no words; he had indeed allowed Jayne, whom had been turned into a Vampire by the prince himself, to deliver the bite, and all for a night of intense pleasure. Death continued to yell “You disappoint me, boy!”
“Father, wait-” Before Nick could finish Death strikes him across the face and forces him into a kneeling position. Death grabs Nick by the throat “YOU are no longer my Harbinger! You will have to earn that right back, or die trying! For I no longer care!” Nick feels the power of his creator being drawn out of him as he keeps his head bowed before his Master.
Death pulls away and gives one final piece of his mind before he leaves “Find your whore if you can, but I wouldn’t be surprised if she dies before the sun rises” Nick felt a tear fall down his face as he felt the changes within him, the Vampire curse was truly taking over. Death and the other’s leave as Nick feels all reasoning leave his body, he felt hungry for blood and carnage, he needed to kill something right now.
Fortunately for him, Damien had just entered the apartment...
To be continued...
So any questions or comments then leave them below, don't forget to like as well! XD
(I was listening to that Alice Cooper song ON REPEAT when writing this chapter, hence why I included it, mostly because it references what Jayne did to Nick)
Goddamn it Jersey, show a bro some understanding! He'll eventually come to accept Frank's preferred sexual orientation sooner or later. May not be right away, but I have a feeling he'll come around to it.
I was seriously going sad-eyed for Frank, though. At least Gren was understanding, but damn, both R. and F. don't have to fake their love for women!
The sun rose high above the buildings and the sleeping world below. Gren and Robert never went to sleep. There was no need. The emotions and… more conversation that night and well into the day was overdue for both of them. While Robert took a cigarette break, Gren looked back and watched his brother. He use to picture Robert as this tough, undestructive man; little feelings, nothing bothered him and everyone wanted to BE him. Robert was painted by the hands of God and he was a towering beast. Nothing would ever bother him.
Gren never will understand. He'd have to walk a day in Robert's shoes to really know and learn things he never knew. But he could be there now and always, holding his brother's hand, like the many times Robert did for him. Gren listened all night to Robert's heartfelt confessions. Gren had questions, as would anyone who's loved one was finally coming forward.
He, however, could not understand why Robert felt the need to hid… [view original content]
Going into Hiding... Finale
Kieron, Claire and Ride went walking through the streets of Fabletown...
"So where do you guys want to go?… more" Ride asked
Kieron shrugged "I don't know, I am a bit hungry. Maybe we could go out to eat?" He asked
Claire nodded "I'm hungry too, could we go to a place that makes steak?" She asked
Ride smiled "Sure, I don't see why not."
Claires mind was buzzing with thoughts. She took a deep breath while Kieron was distracted and tried to calm her nerves. Going out with Kieron and his mom was supposed to be relaxing during this time of peace. Claire held Kierons hand and stayed close to him, she felt like she was safe if she was close to him. Claire wondered when all of this was going to just go away and leave her be, although that's all she's been wondering for the past three days. Claire looked up at Kieron. Sadness began to fill her head again at a what if he died I would be all alone scenario again.… [view original content]
Even Nick cannot resist the kiss (If that's what Jayne gave him XD). Oh the sweet Prince what kind of douchebaggery deeds will you be doing in this story? XD And Death!? I was surprised to hear such words from him! Damien by the way was quite hilarious but it seems he's about to get snacked on o.o Maybe Kieron will have to teach Nick how to be a vampire XD.
This was awesome man! Although a bit sad at how Death reacted I look forward to more!

Thanks man! I was always interested in Ride and to find out there was not a lot with her done in the comics was sad, so I figured I'd let he… morer shine here She's trying to smile and she's starting to move on but it'll take a bit more time before she's really moved on.
That I can agree with as well, maybe his mom can help him out as well with that one. Things will get better soon
Her body is the only one that can hold the blood of Caine without being instantly burned alive. You are right to have your suspicions my good man.
I got everything unpacked and I got to sleep in It might be stocking a shop, but I'm going to try and land a job where I live now in a bar as well, so I can work as a dishwasher and move up to a bartender! Thanks man!
Kieron heard the words of the old man. He looked at his mother Ride.
"Mom...don't watch okay?" He asked
She looked confused as she did not hear the old man's words. "What do you-" Kieron was already gone.
Kieron grabbed the old man by the throat, pure hatred could be seen in Kierons eyes. With all his strength he punched the old man in the gut. "What were those words old man!?" He said
The old man smiled and leaned in "Whore..."
Biggest. Mistake. Ever. Made. In. The. History. Of. Mistakes!!!! XP
Claire is one hell of a badass, though I don't completely trust Caine... I fear something bad will happen to Ride, therefore Kieron will become even more detached from his humanity

Kieron summoned serrated blades. And in one swift movement of his hand the old man was stabbed, Kieron pulled the blades out slowly he made sure he wasn't hit in any vital organs, Kieron pinned the old man to the wall. The other vampires were terrified as Kieron pinned the old man to the wall with the blades yet again. Kieron walked over to the vampires his crimson eyes beamed red.

Michelle had to take a moment to sit along the journey to the three fates' home. While Gren spoke to Hades, Nick aides to Michelle's side. H… moreanding her a large glass of water, Nick takes this opportunity to speak tothe young blonde woman. The entire walk, she was silent. Michelle made a few attempts to talk but that was all. Nick watched her pink lips wrap around the edge of the glass. She managed to drink half before cleaning her lips. Behind them, Junior stood and smoked a cigarette. Nick noticed several clouds of ash and smoke lingering around his feet. Digging into his pocket, Nick offers Michelle a cigar as well but with a smile, she declines the offer.
"Horrible habit." Michelle takes another sip. "I've been trying to avoid using that method to calm my nerves."
"It can be." Nick lights his cigar instead. "But these things truly calm yourself down after a long day, battle or just for the fuck of things."
"Agreed." Michelle sighs.… [view original content]
It's all good man! XD
It definitely was XD Although Ride was not too happy with how Kieron went about it sadly
You are right to have … moreyour suspicions as most deities are dirty. I can assure you though Caine is here to help, but he does it in his own way.
Awesome!
She did indeed give him The Kiss, the very same one that Claire gave to unsuspecting Kieron :P
Oh the sweet Prince what kind of douche… morebaggery deeds will you be doing in this story?
LMFAO!!!! HAHAHA! Oh, he will play his part
Death is pissed off that his indomitable war machine lost control to a Vampire curse, he did give Nick the chance to earn it back though...
Damien... Is a survivor. You don't become Nick's bro like he is without suffering some injuries from time to time. Nuff said.
Nick is only a Vampire at night, one of the ways his curse is messed up
Excellent! Hopefully I will write more tomorrow.
How is a Mother supposed to react to that level of brutality, she was hardly going to cheer him on like he was playing a soccer match! XP
… more Deities in Fables are all dickheads in their own way, it's a fact He better not hurt Claire or Kieron... or Ride...
I wasn't hinting at size, I was hinting that your face looks a little like his. Another reason I mentioned him was because I recently got into watching his videos. Jesus dude.
Anyway, you should watch his videos yourself imo - they're funny as hell and should cheer you up even more.
You're comparing me to him... he's a lot fatter than me for a start, and he doesn't even have normal eyebrows!!
Look, I took offence, now I'm over it. I apologise for being so rude, but him of all people?
Hey whatever gets me out of the house I am comepletely fine with XD Plus like you said stacking stuff for the most part is easy! Except for when you get to the heavy stuff XD
Part one covers Ethan's curse and he can not escape. Carla is using it and no matter what, he'll fight Emily and he refuses to do this...so to stop the curse, Peter must stab him; this his how it all began and is the only way to end it. Peter hesitates but does it. Ethan turns into a blue ladybug; Erica asked Georgie if there were blue ones and he said no but if she wished really hard, it will come true....Peter collects the bug and goes into the woods, were Georgie, Lyla and Erica are hiding after Carla attacked at their home.
Emily and Vivian are in the Underworld, waiting for Gren. Emily appears 7 or 8 months pregnant because if the soul is alive and in the Underworld, they develop quicker. The fates see a figure approach and Emily sees its her brother and he explains what happened before leaving forever....Peter finds Erica, Georgie and Lyla; he gives the blue ladybug to Erica. This was Ethan's gift to Erica and it gave her a 2nd chance at life. Noah took her first and she is healed once again....the final trumpet is sound and now, begins the war. We just wait for Gremily.
Nope, Jayne does have a dark past though (nothing will be revealed of it in this story however) She is overwhelmed by the feeling of power, and the first thing she wanted to do is be as intimate as possible with her true love. If that meant turning him into a Vampire, then so be it
I can tell you now that Nick won't be his executioner...
Death is always fair in some way with Nick :P
Nick really doesn't take well to having this curse, you will see next chapter.
Oh man! That game!!! I'm playing Saints Row 4 Re-Elected, though I should really start TFTB or GOT
Jayne is playing smart already o.o she must have some ancient vampire family members XD
Hopefully Nick caves his skull in!
That is tru… moree! XD
Ah okay, that's interesting!
Well then I look forward to it! This was perfect for my break from Resident Evil 5

Guess you can kind of see it like that. Ethan is gone in spirit but the love he had for Michelle, Erica and his family was left in this little blue creature.
‘I am a woman, yes, but not a lady. YOU of all people should know that after all this time.’ She said in mockery.
‘Fine’ I said ‘Get in the damned car.’ I said in feigned annoyance.
‘That is more like it.’
Well.... these two certainly know how to act around each other!! :O
‘Why not help me carry the stuff down?’ I called after her.
‘Because I need an o so strong man to do it for me.’
I knew she was being sarcastic, but I went along with it. ‘Seriously?’
‘No’
Gertraud is something else entirely!! XP
That was quite a tender moment between them; it was really sweet to see their barriers of sarcasm fall and for them to say what they really think about one another :')
I think it is safe to say this chapter will incite a lot of feels (what is it with us and chapters that do hence lately?)
Chapter 23: Val… moreentinstag. Febraur 14. 1950.
Today was Valentine’s Day. Usually, we did not bother with such a day, but this once was an exception; an experiment.
I awoke, finding that the bed felt unusually soft and large. The walls were navy blue in colour compared to their usually dull and worn wooden colour. This was not right. In shock, I shot up into a sitting position.
The room had a dresser in the corner, complete with a mirror, stool and two jewellery boxes. In the corner stood a desk with my leather coat cast over its seat and several pieces of writing tools cast over the desktop.
‘What is wrong, Hunter?’ came a concerned tone from my side.
Turning to meet this sound, I found Gertraud; hair shrivelled from sleep and in white nightwear.
It started to come back to me.

Nisa and Marco managed to escape the pursuit of the men, however Nisa felt they weren't giving up so easily … moreso she kept on her guard, like every other mercenary of her standards would. The two took shelter on top of roof somewhere in the Bronx. The moon was full tonight and the silence was broken from a eerie howl coming from the horizon.
While shining her sword with a cloth, Nisa was expecting questions from Marco. It took a minute before he decided to speak, he becoming light headed again.
“Hey, you. Are you okay, don’t black out on me. I still need to get paid..” Nisa as he trying to keep the dhampir awake.
He slips into another sleep and finds himself in the red world that resembled his previous dream, on the very same rooftop he passed out on, all alone. Everything was silent, it’s quite disturbing because the only sound he hear is the sound him breathing and his heart beating. He then hears the s… [view original content]
Oh man, Jayne. You gave Nick The Kiss. I was hoping he'd be able to overcome this but man...that scene was described beautifully. They have such passion; I love Jayne and even though she was changing him, you can still feel the love in a weird way.
And the Prince is one sneaky SOB, I'll tell you this much. XD And wow....Death's reaction really pissed me off in a small way BUT I can understand why he feels this way...And now Damien. XD Bet he needs a snack, assuming he was having 'fun' before entering the apartment. lol Don't feel bad, Nick. Isaiah didn't ask to be a Vamp either. :P

Brandy literally scares me! I'm being serious when I say that I don't back her for being a good guy, I back her for simply being the Protagonist of the story. Oh man, she gonna give nightmares dude...
Fuckin' Tweedles! Ugh, I thought I left Dee to bleed out in the Crooked Man's lair?! >:(
Challenge pg. 6
Isaiah rubs a mysterious liquid into his eyes. It smelled horrible to Brandy. It reminded the young Vampire of the woods … moreand the many reasons why she never attempted to trail through. They were dirty, full of despicable bugs and mundies loved to take 'vacations' or make love up against the trees like wild Boars. Brandy glared over at Isaiah, who mumbled to himself. He was speaking in a language she had never heard of and the odor of the liquid was making Brandy angry.
"Cadela estúpida...."
"What did you say to me?" Brandy pulls over to the side. "SPEAK English, Grendel..."
"It was nothing, Brandy." Isaiah flashes his fangs. "There is no need to take this the wrong way or make any trouble. I was merely speaking to myself. That a crime, now? I mean, you did rip my fucking eyes out."
"You'll live." Brandy turns back onto the road. "Not like I burned the damn thing."
Isaiah looks over at the beautiful woman. Her … [view original content]
More of a phrase then anything, my good man. Because let's be honest....who wouldn't choke on blood, if you pulled something like this out? XD
Yeah Brandy may come off as so but she means well. She's a little 'stuck' at the moment; she wants to kill Isaiah but needs him to locate the source of the issue but looks like the problem is looking for brandy, too.
I hate that fucktard, too but I have not used him yet and have a reason for him, too....I always do. :P
Cool chapter!
If she wanted to do it, pull everything out and watch Isaiah choke of his own blood.
Little confused by this, I… more didn't know you could choke out a Grendel
Brandy literally scares me! I'm being serious when I say that I don't back her for being a good guy, I back her for simply being the Protagonist of the story. Oh man, she gonna give nightmares dude...

I can't wait for more dude! XD
Comments
I knew Cola exist during that time but I had no idea Fanta did too, I learned something. Lol
I had a gif to express the feels displayed in ths chapter but I've lost it. Nevertheless, I look forward to Gertraud' and co. adventure and where you take them into the cold war.
Normally I'd say what the hell why not but I'm going to pass on this one XD
Did not mean to send mixed messages but Robert is trying to contact Frank....Rose is sadly, the majority of people that I've come out to. They react like this and anger, mixed with confusion and hurt, makes a person say things they normally wouldn't....She'll come around, like Jersey but it takes time. RJ is indeed an awesome kid and is too much like his mother.
Sorry for the feels again, dude! XD
Yes! Hopefully one of these times Frank will answer I hope! I hope so because those were really mean things to say, they even hurt me! I hear this in hopes that Lylas words might not sting and she may be a bit more nice and comforting then
It's alright man although I hope this whole feels thing will die down soon! Although I know it won't XD
Same here. I'm with Tetra. Think everyone has seen enough of Jacob. LOVE this pic, though!
Hey, nice smile, bro!
Nah, I'm good this time, too. Think we are all tired of seeing pie for the day. lol
I'm good, JonTron. :P Maybe later in the summer.
[removed]
So I somehow managed to find the inspiration to write this, tbh I put it down to a lot of music
If you have any questions about the previous chapter then don't hesitate to ask! Enjoy!!! (This chapter is a bit 'graphic'...)
Vampire Challenge Chapter 3 – You Can’t Fight It
“Jayne?... J-Jayne?” Nick continued to cradle his love, she didn’t move a muscle; Nick pressed his ear against Jayne’s chest and listened intently for a heartbeat, yet there was no such thump present anymore. Nick could’ve sworn that tears were tugging at the corners of his eyes, but those salty drops of sadness never flowed, he wouldn’t let them.
But then Jayne’s body went from limp to stiff, she opened her eyes revealing that they had turned a hideous shade of red. Her skin went pale and cold, her breathe was slow and forced; she rose up onto her feet from a lying position, like something out of a horror movie. Nick crawled backwards a little as Jayne looked at her hands and studied them like she had never seen them before, she did the same to her torso, her hair, her legs... she even pressed her fingers to her face to get a feel of its shape.
Nick cautiously stood up “Jayne?” Jayne’s head whipped round to face Nick, her eyes were still red and her teeth had become pointed. She had become a Fledgling Vampire. Nick staggered backwards a bit as Jayne turned her body towards him, it wasn’t so much fear that made Nick weary, but rather that he didn’t want to have to hurt Jayne, she had been hurt more than enough in her life...
Jayne walked forwards with such alluring grace, her hips swaying from side to side; she reached a hand to Nick’s cheek and stroked it. Her touch was so cold it made Nick wince a little. She brought her mouth to Nick’s ear and breathed into it, causing him to freeze a little himself and exhale with a slight shudder. As Jayne’s right hand snaked its way down to Nick’s crotch, her other hand moved behind his head and pulled him in for a kiss.
The feeling of sharpened incisors was a strange sensation on Nick’s tongue; they had the faintest taste of ‘sweetness’ to them, obviously the Vampire venom, but the curse itself wouldn’t work on Nick the way it would for a more ‘normal’ person... Jayne wasn’t intending on stopping this kiss anytime soon, and if the situation wasn’t so strange then Nick would’ve gladly continued with it, but he pulled away.
“Jayne, you need to stop, ok. We need to fix this” Jayne paid little attention to Nick’s words as she grinned and literally de-materialised her clothes until she was left in her sexy red lingerie, her bra however, fell gently to the ground, as Nick had already unhooked it earlier. Nick couldn’t keep his mouth from gaping open “Holy crap, I always forget how fucking sexy this woman is!” Jayne walked towards Nick again and threw him onto the sofa; Nick was a lot more compelled to play along now.
Jayne ripped off Nick’s t-shirt and pressed her chest against his own as she kissed him again. Nick wrapped his arms around Jayne’s back and smoothed his hands over the soft expanse of her pale skin; she bit Nick’s lower lip and pulled away with a suck, moving towards his neck. If Nick had realised why he was experiencing so much ecstasy right now, then he would’ve stopped Jayne from biting into his neck, and performing The Kiss.
O The Homelands, the Snow Queen’s castle
“Oh Joe, why must you leave me so soon?” The Snow Queen, Lumi, was naked and perched on her forearms on her lavish bed, watching a grey haired man change back into his clothes.
The man looks back and cradles Lumi’s head in his palms as he kisses her with a loving passion “I’m sorry my dear, but duty calls, and no doubt my boy’s are already waiting for me downstairs” The man spoke with a gruff Irish accent; Lumi looked saddened as Joe pulled away and returned to replacing his clothes to his strong body.
For a Werewolf (and an older man as well) he and her shared a unique connection, Lumi could almost say that she ‘loved’ Joe, and Joe certainly held affections of a similar nature towards the ice-cold beauty, but the cold didn’t bother Joe one bit, perks of being a Wolf...
Joe finally finished putting on his attire: black leather riding boots, black slacks, a white shirt underneath a thick, black tunic, and a gray sash around his waist. He carried no weapons however, he needed only to take them from his opponents and use them until they were no longer useful. Joe gives Lumi a final kiss and heads out of her room; he goes downstairs to meet his ‘boys’.
“Well you took your sweet time” A blonde haired man said to Joe, Joe paid no attention as he finished the flight of stairs.
Joe was an older looking man in his mid 40’s at least, his face bore the signs of a man of action, he was certainly not as handsome as he used to be, but he wasn’t entirely unappealing in spite of his battle scars. He had short grey hair with light stubble and hazel coloured eyes. His physique was bulky in a sense of strength, which was Joe’s biggest advantage; he wasn’t as quick as his 2 companions (his son, Markus, and his nephew, Kristo) but if you wanted someone to break every bone in a man’s face with a single punch, then Joe was your Werewolf.
His nephew, Kristo, was a much younger looking man in his early 20’s, he had a remarkably cute face with blue eyes and naturally blonde hair that was shoulder length and wavy, he also had a neatly trimmed beard and moustache. Kristo was an in-betweener compared to his 2 companions; strength and speed were both on his side in equal quantity, though overall, athleticism was more Kristo’s thing. He enjoyed using acrobatic manoeuvres to confuse and decimate his opponents, his youth being a major contributor to his stamina along with his being a Werewolf. He spoke with a smooth Irish accent that could make any woman blush with delight.
Markus was Joe’s son and looked closer to being in his 30’s, he had dark brown hair that went just past his shoulders, and it was ‘heavy’, frankly it didn’t ‘wave’ much at all. He possessed light stubble much like his Father and similarly coloured hazel eyes. Markus was the quieter of the 2 but spoke when necessary; he had speed on his side and a feral nature that made him a vicious opponent in a fight. Markus always had a serious look about him, which did alienate him from other people’s affections, though he did possess a very nice smile and was generally shy around women. His accent was also Irish, though it had a deeper tone than Kristo’s.
Much like Joe, Markus and Kristo wore the exact same attire and did not carry any weapons to speak of, though the 3 did enjoy using swords whenever possible. Joe looks between the 2 “So where do we go next, lads?” in response Kristo unfolded his arms and pulled out a piece of parchment from his belt, he showed it to Joe.
Joe studied the parchment and looked at Kristo again with his mouth slightly open “The Prince is in Fabletown?!”Kristo nodded and points to the signature at the bottom of the parchment “Look who signed it” Joe studies the signature, though he dares to think why a Horseman would want the Prince dead...
Joe folds the parchment and tosses it into a nearby torch, watching it burn away into ash. The 3 men briskly walk away from the Snow Queen’s castle and begin sprinting as soon as they are clear of its drawbridge; they had a mission to complete, and money to earn, no matter the cost.
O Back in Nick’s apartment
Nick woke up in his bed feeling very strange, he felt relaxed and tired all at once. Looking at his clock on his bedside table, Nick noticed that it was only 1am, he had been asleep for barely an hour! As he rose to his feet, he looked around and saw no sign of his beloved Jayne, though his foul black blood was present in tiny droplets on his pillow; Nick felt a throbbing sensation on his neck and felt the bite.
“No! No, no, no, NO!!” Nick was in too much shock to be able to comprehend the situation, how was he infected? He was a Harbinger, an agent of Death himself; this curse shouldn’t have affected him! Then again, how could Nick resist the advances of his lady? He allowed himself to become weak and therefore the infection was allowed to spread; Nick ran his tongue along his incisors and found them to be sharp and slightly sweet.
“Jayne?!” Nick called out but the apartment was empty, where the hell did she go? Before Nick could get up, he heard his jukebox start playing Poison by Alice Cooper... then 3 familiar voices started singing along with the chorus.
“I wanna love ya but you better not touch (don’t touch) I wanna hold you but my senses tell me to stop, I wanna kiss you but I want it too much (too much) I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison! Ahhhhhhhhh, your poison running through my veins!”
Nick looked over his bedroom railing and saw Galen, Cormac and Aleesha in their human forms all singing in time with the lyrics, what kind of a mockery was this? Nick didn’t bother with them just yet however as he changed into a pair of jeans and a black tank shirt.
They continued to sing as he walked down the stairs towards them “I hear you callin’ and it’s needles and pins (and pins) I wanna hurt you just to hear you screaming my name, Don’t wanna touch you but you’re under my skin (deep in) I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison!”
Before they could continue the chorus however, Nick grabs Galen and forces him against the well, Galen merely smirked and refused to fight back as Nick effortlessly lifted him as far as his arms could reach by the collar of his silvery tunic “Turn that off, Eesh”
Aleesha turned off the jukebox and planted herself on Nick’s sofa, casually throwing Jayne’s underwear off of it as she did so. Cormac remained standing as Nick asked the questions “What do you want?” Galen glared at his Brother for a while before gesturing behind Nick’s shoulder “HE wants a word with you” Nick looked back and saw Death standing behind him.
Nick let Galen go, but before War’s Harbinger could make a remark, Nick kicked him straight through the wall of his apartment and into Damien’s. Damien jumps as he sees the ghostly figure get up and brush himself down, he looks at the wall and back at Galen before speaking “Family issues again?” Galen ignores Damien as he steps back into Nick’s apartment; Damien shrugs to himself and continues to read a Playboy magazine as he smokes “You’re paying for my wall just so you know, you pasty jackass!”
Nick had barely enough time to speak to his Father when Death pointed his finger at the bite on Nick’s neck “Do you know what you have allowed yourself to become!” Nick backed away a little as Death moved closer to him “You fucking idiot! You’ve allowed the Prince to turn you into one of his night-walking scum!”
Nick had no words; he had indeed allowed Jayne, whom had been turned into a Vampire by the prince himself, to deliver the bite, and all for a night of intense pleasure. Death continued to yell “You disappoint me, boy!”
“Father, wait-” Before Nick could finish Death strikes him across the face and forces him into a kneeling position. Death grabs Nick by the throat “YOU are no longer my Harbinger! You will have to earn that right back, or die trying! For I no longer care!” Nick feels the power of his creator being drawn out of him as he keeps his head bowed before his Master.
Death pulls away and gives one final piece of his mind before he leaves “Find your whore if you can, but I wouldn’t be surprised if she dies before the sun rises” Nick felt a tear fall down his face as he felt the changes within him, the Vampire curse was truly taking over. Death and the other’s leave as Nick feels all reasoning leave his body, he felt hungry for blood and carnage, he needed to kill something right now.
Fortunately for him, Damien had just entered the apartment...
To be continued...
So any questions or comments then leave them below, don't forget to like as well! XD
(I was listening to that Alice Cooper song ON REPEAT when writing this chapter, hence why I included it, mostly because it references what Jayne did to Nick)
Alice Cooper - Poison 1989
I'm waiting on those reviews
Now that was crazy - in the good, emotional way!
Goddamn it Jersey, show a bro some understanding! He'll eventually come to accept Frank's preferred sexual orientation sooner or later. May not be right away, but I have a feeling he'll come around to it.
I was seriously going sad-eyed for Frank, though. At least Gren was understanding, but damn, both R. and F. don't have to fake their love for women!
Huh, after all the shit Kieron's done, he's still called a fledgling by some. Goddamn it. :P
Even Nick cannot resist the kiss (If that's what Jayne gave him XD). Oh the sweet Prince what kind of douchebaggery deeds will you be doing in this story? XD And Death!? I was surprised to hear such words from him! Damien by the way was quite hilarious but it seems he's about to get snacked on o.o Maybe Kieron will have to teach Nick how to be a vampire XD.
This was awesome man! Although a bit sad at how Death reacted
I look forward to more!
You live in a bar? Like an apartment above the bar or something?
Finally got down to reading this!! :P
Biggest. Mistake. Ever. Made. In. The. History. Of. Mistakes!!!! XP
Claire is one hell of a badass, though I don't completely trust Caine... I fear something bad will happen to Ride, therefore Kieron will become even more detached from his humanity
I look forward to more dude! XD
Oh no! I worded that whole thing terribly! I apologize. There is a bar like four minutes away from my parents house.
She did indeed give him The Kiss, the very same one that Claire gave to unsuspecting Kieron :P
LMFAO!!!! HAHAHA! Oh, he will play his part
Death is pissed off that his indomitable war machine lost control to a Vampire curse, he did give Nick the chance to earn it back though...
Damien... Is a survivor. You don't become Nick's bro like he is without suffering some injuries from time to time. Nuff said.
Nick is only a Vampire at night, one of the ways his curse is messed up
Excellent! Hopefully I will write more tomorrow.
It's all good man! XD
It definitely was XD Although Ride was not too happy with how Kieron went about it sadly
You are right to have your suspicions as most deities are dirty. I can assure you though Caine is here to help, but he does it in his own way.
Awesome!
Read this part, summarize what happens for the next 2 parts please.
Was such a rude reply really necessary? I didn't mean anything bad by it. Now I know you don't like being compared to him for whatever reason.
How is a Mother supposed to react to that level of brutality, she was hardly going to cheer him on like he was playing a soccer match! XP
Deities in Fables are all dickheads in their own way, it's a fact
He better not hurt Claire or Kieron... or Ride...
Ah, we can blame ourselves for both our mistakes. XD Stocking sounds like a steady job for you, so I hope you get that.
Jayne is playing smart already o.o she must have some ancient vampire family members XD
Hopefully Nick caves his skull in!
That is true! XD
Ah okay, that's interesting!
Well then I look forward to it!
This was perfect for my break from Resident Evil 5 
Hey you never know there is Alice XD
This is also true! XD Although I can't say who he will or will not hurt.
You're comparing me to him... he's a lot fatter than me for a start, and he doesn't even have normal eyebrows!!
Look, I took offence, now I'm over it. I apologise for being so rude, but him of all people?
I forgot about her :P
Of course, that would be spoiling...
I wasn't hinting at size, I was hinting that your face looks a little like his. Another reason I mentioned him was because I recently got into watching his videos. Jesus dude.
Anyway, you should watch his videos yourself imo - they're funny as hell and should cheer you up even more.
Hey whatever gets me out of the house I am comepletely fine with XD Plus like you said stacking stuff for the most part is easy! Except for when you get to the heavy stuff XD
Part one covers Ethan's curse and he can not escape. Carla is using it and no matter what, he'll fight Emily and he refuses to do this...so to stop the curse, Peter must stab him; this his how it all began and is the only way to end it. Peter hesitates but does it. Ethan turns into a blue ladybug; Erica asked Georgie if there were blue ones and he said no but if she wished really hard, it will come true....Peter collects the bug and goes into the woods, were Georgie, Lyla and Erica are hiding after Carla attacked at their home.
Emily and Vivian are in the Underworld, waiting for Gren. Emily appears 7 or 8 months pregnant because if the soul is alive and in the Underworld, they develop quicker. The fates see a figure approach and Emily sees its her brother and he explains what happened before leaving forever....Peter finds Erica, Georgie and Lyla; he gives the blue ladybug to Erica. This was Ethan's gift to Erica and it gave her a 2nd chance at life. Noah took her first and she is healed once again....the final trumpet is sound and now, begins the war. We just wait for Gremily.
Nope, Jayne does have a dark past though (nothing will be revealed of it in this story however) She is overwhelmed by the feeling of power, and the first thing she wanted to do is be as intimate as possible with her true love. If that meant turning him into a Vampire, then so be it
I can tell you now that Nick won't be his executioner...
Death is always fair in some way with Nick :P
Nick really doesn't take well to having this curse, you will see next chapter.
Oh man! That game!!! I'm playing Saints Row 4 Re-Elected, though I should really start TFTB or GOT
... Whatever.
What does he do? Video game reviews?
Okay, thanks! Didn't expect the blue ladybug part, so yay, Ethan's still alive!
You can get a little more muscle if you keep on carrying heavy things, so think of it that way!
Guess you can kind of see it like that.
Ethan is gone in spirit but the love he had for Michelle, Erica and his family was left in this little blue creature.
Nice chapter
Well.... these two certainly know how to act around each other!! :O
Gertraud is something else entirely!! XP
That was quite a tender moment between them; it was really sweet to see their barriers of sarcasm fall and for them to say what they really think about one another :')
I look forward to more! XD
It seems you're still angry for nothing, so I'll give you the privilege on finding out yourself.
I figured the vampire god would have some blood to go with his ice cream. I'm surprised he didn't. :P
Like the others have said, I enjoy his humor as well, definitely something you wouldn't expect from his position.
Oh man, Jayne. You gave Nick The Kiss. I was hoping he'd be able to overcome this but man...that scene was described beautifully. They have such passion; I love Jayne and even though she was changing him, you can still feel the love in a weird way.
And the Prince is one sneaky SOB, I'll tell you this much. XD And wow....Death's reaction really pissed me off in a small way BUT I can understand why he feels this way...And now Damien. XD Bet he needs a snack, assuming he was having 'fun' before entering the apartment. lol Don't feel bad, Nick. Isaiah didn't ask to be a Vamp either. :P
Cool chapter!
Little confused by this, I didn't know you could choke out a Grendel
Brandy literally scares me! I'm being serious when I say that I don't back her for being a good guy, I back her for simply being the Protagonist of the story. Oh man, she gonna give nightmares dude...
Fuckin' Tweedles! Ugh, I thought I left Dee to bleed out in the Crooked Man's lair?! >:(
I can't wait for more dude! XD
More of a phrase then anything, my good man. Because let's be honest....who wouldn't choke on blood, if you pulled something like this out? XD
Yeah Brandy may come off as so but she means well. She's a little 'stuck' at the moment; she wants to kill Isaiah but needs him to locate the source of the issue but looks like the problem is looking for brandy, too.
I hate that fucktard, too but I have not used him yet and have a reason for him, too....I always do. :P
