Twilight awoke late in the day from a knock on her door, it was 2 o'clock in the afternoon, she was still a little on edge knowing she had let 6 vampires sleep in her basement, "Twilight?" a voice came from her door, "Twilight, it's Spike, you okay in there?" he asked.

Twilight sighed, "Yes Spike, I'm fine." she responded.

Spike opened the door just to make sure she was, "Good, cause I was getting worried, since we have vampires sleeping in the basement." Spikes eyes were red from exhaustion and tiredness, it looked like he didn't sleep all night.

"Spike, have you been up all night?" She asked worryingly.

"Yeah I read through a comic that had vampires in it and I studied, I know all the vampire weaknesses, so if anything were to happen I'd be there to kill em." he grinned.

Twilight didn't really like the idea of Spike doing that, cause 1 he was too small and 2 who knows how much these vampire ponies are capable of, "Spike relax, I'm sure they won't attack us and even if they do the Elements of Harmony would stop them."

Spike sighed, "I hope your right Twilight, cause when the sun goes down tonight they'll wake up and be wanting to... feed." he gulped.

"Relax Spike." she said walking down stairs, "I'm going to the Ponyville hospital to get a couple pints of blood for them so they can feed, and I should find a spell that would help them adjust to the sunlight."

"I hope you know what your doing Twilight." He said in worry.

Twilight went to the hospital and asked for a few pints of blood, the doctor was curious as to why Princess Twilight wanted pints of blood, she told them it was for a experiment for illnesses.

As Twilight was on her way back to her castle a flash of rainbow appeared in front of her.

"Hey Twilight, You Okay?" Dash said.

"Yes, Just picking up... breakfast for... the vampires." She whispered.

"Are you sure you're okay?" She asked nervously.

"Dash, I'm fine, I slept fine and nothing bit me." She said.

"Okay, hey when that dude Marko wakes up, I wanna race him, he said when he flies with his vampire powers he's fast, I bet he can't be as fast as me." she smirked

Twilight was surprised that she said that after worrying about her, but she had to be sure with her friends about this situation. "Rainbow Dash, Do you think that their evil?" Twilight asked.

"I don't think so, they were very cool last night after that whole fiasco when they woke up, well... when those two argued with each other it was like they had differences, but you know when stuff like that happens they learn to resolve them, if you can cure them I think they would be cool ponies to hang around with." She said.

"Well it's good that you think they're okay, but I really wish Pinkie could not be so scared and learn to be friends with them."

"Do you trust them?" Dash asked

Twilight sat down and sighed as she looked at Dash, "most ponies would be scared of vampires, but I feel something that I can't explain about David, I know I can trust him and his friends, and if we can't find a cure for them, I can teach them the meanings of friendship, I can sense good in them."

"I hope so too Twilight, cause if they were to get us and turn us, Ponyville would be a haven for vampires." Dash said worried.

Twilight made it back to her castle and set the pints of blood on the table, "Is that the blood." said a voice that made Twilight jump, she turned to see Starlight, "Oh, I'm sorry Twilight, I didn't mean to scare you." She said comforting.

"It's okay Starlight, I wasn't sure if you were one of those vampires." She sighed.

"Don't worry, with me here, I'll protect you." She said reassuringly.

Twilight and Starlight walked to the basement door, "I need to go downstairs and take some blood samples from them." Twilight said.

"You sure that's a good idea?" Starlight shivered.

"It's okay, I've read that vampires don't feel a certain amount of pain, so just using a hypodermic needle should be fine at getting blood."

They both slowly walked down the stairs into the darkened basement, Twilight and Starlight lit their horns to see, with each step they took they had to be cautious of every move they make, the creaking of the stairs was enough to make their hearts pound, they made it down the steps and walked across the darkened room to see the ones known as David, Dwayne and Star sleeping on the cots.

"Where are the other ones?" Starlight shivered.

"I don't know but--- GHAAAHH---" Twilight jumped but Starlight quickly shut Twilight's mouth with her magic as they saw Marko and Paul hanging upside down asleep with their tails looped around a pipe in the rafters.

"How are they even doing that?" Said Starlight.

"They're just like bats, they sleep upside down." Twilight answered. "This basement is a tomb for them, cause its so dark."

"This is too much for me Twilight lets just get the blood samples and go!" She said nervously.

"Okay." Twilight got blood from each vampire, it was hard to get it with their jackets on but she got the samples she needed, "Alright and one more from... wait, where the little colt at?" She was referring to Laddie who nowhere in sight.

"I don't know!? I can't find him!" She said quietly searching every square inch of the basement, but Laddie was gone.

"I don't think he would have gone outside, the sun is still up." Twilight said.

Across Ponyville Fluttershy was waking up softly, she looked at her clock and realized that her animals didn't get any breakfast, she had been asleep half of the day.

"OH MY GOODNESS!" She gasped jumping out of her bed and flew downstairs to see that her animals had already been feed, "Angel?" She called, "Did you feed the animals?" she asked, Angel shook his head "No", Fluttershy was puzzled, who could have feed them? she wondered.

The sound of a cabinet door closing caught Fluttershy's attention, somebody was in her kitchen, she walked to the doorway and saw the navy blue colt looking in her pantry, "Oh, hello." She whispered.

The little colt turned around with shyness in his eye, "Hello." He shyly responded.

"Your one of those vampires, Laddie, right?" She asked.

Laddie sadly nodded, "Yes."

"I thought vampires couldn't be out in the sunlight?" She pondered.

"I'm only a half one like Star." He said.

"A half vampire?" She questioned.

"That means I'm still a... normal person, until I make my first... first... k-k-kill." Laddie mumbled sadly.

Fluttershy was heartbroken at what the little colt had said, "for him to be full vampire you have to kill somepony!?" she said mentally, she was scared for this little colt, killing a innocent pony to become a monster, "How did you become one?" She asked.

"Well, my mommy died when I was a baby, and my father did his best he could to take care of me, but 3 months ago my dad lost his job, he started drinking and became really abusive towards me." Fluttershy shook at the story Laddie was telling her, "He would come home late and yell at me for things that weren't my fault, I ran away from home one night to the Boardwalk and slept under a dock, the next night I was being bullied by some bigger kids, they pushed me and were about to beat me up when Dwayne came to my rescue."

"Did he k-k-kill those kids?" She hoped not.

"No, he just chased them off," Fluttershy felt relieved. "Dwayne took me to where he and his friends and Star lived, he gave me a bed to sleep in, the next day I found a bottle... of what I thought was juice," Futtershy pondered at what was in this bottle. "I was so thirsty and I pulled the cork out and took a sip, I didn't like the taste when I gulped it down, when Dwayne saw that I had drank from it he freaked out." Fluttershy began to worry, "Dwayne told me not to be scared of what I just drank." Laddie started to frown, "He told me... it... was... vampire blood." Fluttershy's inside's shook with fear, worry, shock and most of all sadness, this poor little colt became this by accident.

Laddie nuzzled into Fluttershy's chest, she looked down at the scared little colt and wrapped her wings around him nuzzled his head, "Why did you come here, Laddie?" She asked.

"I woke up earlier and wanted to see you, cause my friend Dwayne really likes you." Fluttershy blushed that his friends likes her. "I had trouble finding your house, and I asked this blue lady with pink hair that lived at this gingerbread looking house,"

"That must be Mrs Cake, she works at the Sugarcube corner bakery." Said Fluttershy.

"Yeah that was her, and she told me where you lived, and when I came here a little white bunny opened the door and let me in,"

"How sweet of Angel to do that." She whispered.

"And he was begging for this bowl of carrots on the table and I had trouble getting them, and I was able to use my mouth to get it for him and he showed me to feed the others, and I did."

Fluttershy was surprised that Laddie did that for her animals, "Oh, thank you so much sweetie." She said hugging him.

Laddie strained from a pain in his belly, Fluttershy was scared, "What's wrong, are you okay!?" She whimpered nervously.

"Yeah it's just, I'm hungry... like a vampire." Laddie whimpered.

"Oh you poor thing, I don't know what to do for you." She said worried, she knew what he was going through, he was having hunger pains and needed to feed, like what she did when she was a vampire, she didn't want this little colt to be a monster like his friends, she remembered on Nightmare Night she dress up as a vampire and scared her friends and it was not really funny afterwords she recalled.

"Usually Dwayne would let me feed off of his blood from his wrist." Laddie said, "He said it was only till he found a way to change me back, or let me wait till I got older and feed if I wanted to." Fluttershy understood what he was saying, even though she didn't like scary stories she had to know more about vampire stuff if she turned back into one.

"Do you want to feed and be like them?" She asked.

Laddie was unsure about the choice he had to make after what Dwayne told him what he was, he was mostly bullied at home and in school and hated his real father and always wanted to be a kid or teenage and have fun when ever he wanted to, but the only way to have it was to feed off of people... defenseless people, Dwayne told Laddie that there were a lot of nasty, bad people in the world and would do the world a favor of getting rid of those type of people, but now that they were in a world that didn't have any of that, he would have to choose to be normal again.

"I want to be normal like you, I don't want to hurt anyone in this place, like that Princess said, this land is full of peace and har... har..?"

"Harmony." Fluttershy filled in, as she stroked his hair, "It's okay sweetheart, me and my friends will do anything it take to change you back to normal."

"Thank you." He whimpered.

"Let's get you to Twilight's and maybe she can help with your hunger." Fluttershy said softly to the colt.

Back at Twilight's castle...

"Anything?" Twilight yelled to Starlight as they searched her castle for the missing vampire.

"No, I can't find him anywhere," She said worried, "You don't suppose he got hit by sunlight and vaporized, do ya?"

"I wouldn't think so," Pondered Twilight, "That basement is pretty dark, and usually vampires stay asleep through out the daytime till the sun goes down."

"I don't understand, where could he have gone?" Starlight wondered.

Fluttershy carried Laddie on her back cause he was too tired to walk, Fluttershy felt like a mother carrying her colt on her back he sleep with his legs curled up on her warm back.

The words that Dwayne said last night rang through her head, "CAUSE I'M TIRED OF BEING ALONE, AND I WANTED TO FIND THE PERFECT MOTHER FIGURE FOR LADDIE!" "Was that true?" she thought, "Does he really like me? But he's a monster, a creature of darkness that feeds off the... blood of the living." She shivered.

They made it to Twilight's castle, Laddie was still asleep on Futtershy's back, she approached the doors and gave a light knock, the knock was too light and quiet for anypony to hear from inside, Fluttershy decided to just go inside, "Um... Hello?" She whispered as she entered.

Twilight and Starlight ran out of different rooms at the same time and into the main hall, "Anything?" Twilight asked.

"No." Starlight replied.

"Oh hi Fluttershy." Said Twilight only taking one quick glance at her then turning back to Starlight, "Okay he's not in the kitchen, library or Shining Armors guest room..."

"Girls." Whispered Fluttershy trying to get their attention.

"Have you checked the attic?" Starlight asked.

"Girls." She said again a bit louder but no use.

"No, if he's running lose who knows how many ponies are already turned!!" Twilight said frantically.

"Girls!" She said a bit more louder and it got their attention.

Twilight and Starlight looked over at her to see the young little colt asleep on Fluttershy's back, both Twilight and Starlight gave sighs of relief, "Where did you find him?" Starlight asked.

"He came to my cottage this morning to see me and he feed my animals for me." She answered.

"Why did he come to see you?" Twilight asked.

"He told me that... Dwayne likes me." She replied.

"Why would he like you, he doesn't know you and you only meet him face to face last night, and plus he's a vampire, a blood sucking monster that kills and drinks ponies blood" Twilight said frantically.

"Twilight, I know what he is and what he had to do, but Laddie told me that they only killed bad people, and I believe that they did what they did only to survive, even if they are monsters, they're still good stallions in soul, especially Dwayne, I don't know why but feel a strange connection between us."

Twilight had that same feeling towards David too, she didn't understand it but if she wanted to find out she'll have to get to know David better, "You're right, Fluttershy." She sighed, "That's the way they survive, but I know that if we can help them, they will be eternally grateful for what we could do for them."

"I better take him somewhere where there's a bed." Fluttershy said softly.

"You can put him in Shining Armors room, he'll like it in there." She suggested.

"Okay." replied Fluttershy.

"Before you put him in there, I need a sample of his blood." She informed, Fluttershy was afraid of needles especially a young one getting a shot.

"You'll be careful won't you?" She asked worryingly.

"It's okay Fluttershy, he won't feel it, I promise." She said comforting.

Twilight took the needle and inserted it into Laddie's foreleg, Fluttershy winced in fear that it must've hurt, but Laddie didn't wake up, Twilight got the sample she needed and put a band aid on Laddie's leg and levitated him onto Fluttershy's back.

Fluttershy took Laddie upstairs into Shining Armors childhood room, she laid him on the bed and put the covers over him, Fluttershy looked at Laddie and couldn't help but do one thing... she gave him a kiss on top of his head, Laddie gave a small smile while he slept, Fluttershy smiled and left the room, "I hope we find the cure for him, he's such a sweet little colt, I wouldn't want him to be come a monster, but I promise to devote my heart in helping those vampires become normal again... but... would the spell Twilight used on me, work on them?"

All they could do now is wait for the sun to go down.

Author's Note

I've been thinking about rewriting this into a anthro clopfic, with the ponies of Equestria are anthros and The Lost Boys still in Human forms, and we all know Paul, he'll bang anything that has big hooters.

Give me a comment on what you would think about it.
