Beginning of a new life.

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Twilight smiled happily as she sat with Celestia in her chambers, reading through a book as Celestia smiled at the young filly, it now having been a few weeks since Twilight had been accepted as Celestia’s personal student and began to study under her in her magical education. Twilight had adapted quite well to the new status as her student, having shown quite a lot of potential as a student of magic and already showing quite a lot of talent, which Celestia did not leave unnoticed and worked with as she was quite happy to help sprout a potential great sorcerer in the future. She also prayed and hoped that she could ward off some of the more bad influences Alucard would have on the young filly, not desiring to see another insane vampire run around her land and messing up the place. She counted herself lucky that Alucard didn’t randomly kill without cause or reason, even if she didn’t always agree with them.

Twilight had also adapted a bit more to her new status in terms of her life, no longer afraid of drinking blood from bags donated by the hospitals, albeit her status as a vampire was still kept secret from the mass public, Celestia had to explain to a few chosen and trust-worthy individuals why the young filly needed so much blood donated at a regular rate.
Twilight had also slowly begun to adjust to her more sensitive problem to the sun and light. She could survive in the sun, but it was far from comfortable and she would need to wear shades and something to cover most of her body, so her mother had bought her a black cloak with a hood to cover her from majority of the sun-rays during the day, where her lessons with Celestia took place.

Celestia smiled gently as Twilight closed the book finally and said with a happy smile “I think I got it princess!” her having been studying a spell to change colors of items at desire, as Celestia nodded and said with a proud look “Why don’t you test it out Twilight?” as she summoned a small target platform.
Twilight grinned and stood up on her four hooves, as she aimed her horn at the target and lit her magic, an aura of energy surrounding her horn and then the target, as it began to slowly switch color, going from a standard brown wooden-color to a bright blue.
Soon enough the target had completely switched color, as Celestia smiled to the filly and said “Well done my student. You are progressing very fast and exceeding my expectations… but I think that is enough for today.”

Twilight looked up confused as she said with a pout “But it is still so early!” before eyes widening, and she muttered, looking at the floor “S-Sorry!”

Celestia chuckled amused and smiled as she lifted Twilight’s head gently and looked into her eyes “I know it is a bit early my student, but there is no shame in taking a small break every now and then… besides there are something I want to discuss with you, my precious student.”

“What is it princess…?” She asked curiously, ears perking up in interest. Celestia sighed in response, as she looked out the window, before saying gently.

“I have heard that you are… reluctant to learn of your new abilities as a vampire and the increase in power that comes with it. Is this true?”

Twilight blinked, before looking down in guilt and nodded gently. Celestia looked at her with a gentle look as she asked, “And why is that my precious student?”

She whined and muttered, not looking at her mentor “H-He is scary… and I don’t wanna be a vampire!” she whined gently, sniffling.
Celestia sighed softly, before bringing in Twilight into an embrace as she said with a motherly tone “I know it is hard my dear student. Changes are never easy, and you are going through some massive changes now, changes that can’t be undone. But it is vital that you learn how to handle those changes and control your growing strength and power, because if you do not, you may accidentally hurt somepony someday and I do not believe you want that, right?” Twilight nodded with a downcast look.

Celestia smiled gently and said, “How about we make a deal my little student? If you promise to take your lessons with… Alucard.” She couldn’t help a small grimace as she uttered the dreadful name but continued “I promise that I will gift you a book for every 5 lessons.” Twilight looked up with a blink, before grinning and nodding happily, eager to get some books to read and study and these books were from princess Celestia herself.

The princess chuckled amused at the sight of her eagerness and smiled fondly, happy to have such an eager and talented student. She let go of the young filly and said gently “Now how about you run home. I’ll have a few guards escort you home as it is getting a bit late and is not proper for a young filly to walk home alone.” Twilight nodded with an embarrassed blush but smiled gently as she stood up.
It didn’t take long before two guards arrived, both nodding to the young filly as one said with a smile “Are you ready to head out miss Sparkle?” as the filly nodded with a blush, not used to being called that just yet.

Princess Celestia smiled and said, “Sleep well my faithful student.” As she watched the young filly leave with the guards.
Said guards were leading Twilight out of the castle, standing by her sides and looking around, making sure she was getting home safe as she looked at them curiously and couldn’t help but ask “So… are all guards naturally white or gray and with blue manes and tails… or is it an enchantment?”

One guard smiled to her and said with a touch of amusement “It is enchanted. It serves its own purpose of unity and fitting into a group. If we take off the armor, we return to our natural coat and mane-colors.” Twilight nodded with an interested look as she looked at the armor with curiosity, wondering how it was enchanted and how the magic worked, as she promised herself to ask the princess that next time she had a lesson with her.

As they continued through the streets, it being late, and most ponies having returned to their homes, suddenly a shadowy figure flew down from the air and landed in front of them, as the being said, a male voice “Hand over the filly and you won’t get hurt!”

The guards tensed and said, “Stay back miss Sparkle.” As they moved in front of her, drawing their swords magically, as the being chuckled darkly, and Twilight whimpered in fear and stepped backwards in terror.
The being instantly leaped at one of the guards with a screech as he tensed in shock and blocked the attack with his sword with the flat side, as he saw griffon talons grasping the blade and immediately threw it away, as the other guard yelled “Stay away from him!” as he charged and swung his blade at the griffon, who leaped back and grinned amused and said “Come on! Show me what weak pony-guards can do!” The guards glared as one said, “You focus on spell-fire, I shall attack.” To his partner, who nodded.
The first guard glared and charged at the griffon again, swiftly moving to strike the griffon, who dodged the sword-swing immediately, as he saw a beam coming from the other guard and dodged as well with a leap into the air as he flapped his wings, glaring down at the two guards, as he let out an ungodly shriek in anger and dived at the one that had fired the beam, as the pony gasped and moved to leap out of the way, but he felt his tail grasped by the talons of the griffon, as the hunter grinned wickedly and pulled him closer roughly as the pony cried out in alarm and was unable to block the next attack in time as the griffon dug his talons into the neck of the pony, making him gurgle out in pain as his eyes showed agony and fear, blood coming from his mouth as the griffon grinned and immediately cried out in pain as the other guard had reacted finally, swinging his sword at the griffon and cutting off one of his wings.

The griffon cursed out in pain and grimaced, blood running down his back as he glared and said, “you will pay for this!” the pony glaring in anger at the griffon as the other guard was dying.
Twilight watched in horror as she saw the pony guard slowly dying, petrified in terror at the sight as she whimpered and tears of panic formed in her eyes as she couldn’t move, despite her mind screaming for her to run and hide.

The griffon grimaced, but glanced up, before grinning and said “In fact, you will pay about… NOW!” as the guard looked up in shock, but was too late as he was forced into the ground by a griffon attacking from above, as his sword was quickly forced out of his grasp and used to kill him with, slicing into his neck and spraying the crimson red liquid over the ground as he gurgled the last dying breaths.

Twilight watched in horror and shrieked out in terror as she turned and ran away, but ran straight into a larger griffon, who smirked and swiftly hit head in the head with a club, knocking her unconscious.

…

‘Wake up.’

…

‘Wake up fur ball’

…

‘FOR GOD SAKE! WAKE UP!”

Twilight yelped awake, eyes wide in shock as she looked around, seeing nopony as she was tied to a chair in an empty room, trembling in growing fear as she asked “W-Who’s there?”

‘it’s me fur ball. Alucard. I am talking to you through your mind. You are late for your training.’

“A-Alucard?! H-Help! I have been taken! G-guards were killed, and s-some griffons took me!” as she whimpered in fear, looking around the dark room.

‘well I can’t really help you, if I don’t know where the fuck you are.’

“I-I don’t know where I am… c-can’t you just track me down?”

‘might take hours. Canterlot is a big big city. Plus, you are a big filly, just escape yourself’

“E-Escape myself?! I’m just a filly! I-I can’t do that!”

‘just a filly?’ she heard him laugh loudly ‘you are a fucking vampire! How about you show that your bite is worse than your bark and do something about it?!’

“B-But they are more and bigger than me! I-I can’t!”

‘then enjoy your stay furball. I’m in the middle of something.’

“W-Wait no! Don’t leave me!” She cried out in panic, eyes wide as she heard no response and trembled, tears forming in her eyes.

“Wonder what the brat is yelling about in there.” She heard in the distance, as her ears perked up, looking towards a door.

“Don’t know and don’t care. Why cares if the brat talks to her imaginary friends. She is close to the princess and therefor worth a lot of cash.”

“are you sure the princess will want to pay for her?” Twilight whimpered gently, now knowing why they captured her. Extortion.

“Oh yeah. I am certain. Little bitch is her personal student and her parents are well off I think. Worth a lot of cash, she is.”

“And how do we deliver her back once paid? I mean, I doubt they let us walk away after being given her.”

She heard a snort, as she listened closely, trembling in fear as she heard him say “We either put her in some alley and tell them to go get her, or just get rid of her permanently. Not like I care after we get our money.”

“isn’t that a bit extreme?” she heard another voice say, sounding nervous.

“What? Extreme? If you wanna be a pussy and run out of a great deal, then get out of here, but I swear, if you talk, I will fucking kill you myself. Got it?” there was a warning growl.

“I-I am not running! You’re the boss!”

“Good. Don’t you forget it you idiot!”

She whined and trembled, as she began to try and wriggle free, her horn tied with a rope tightly that blocked her ability to go magic, as she wriggled in the ropes tying her to the chair, trying to get them lose.

She heard the ‘boss’ say “I’m going to check on the little bitch. Need to repay her for the wing I lost.”

“don’t hurt her. We can’t get money from a dead pony.”

“I know I know! You just stay here!” as she heard him walk towards the door as she paled and whined, as the door opened and in walked the griffon, wearing bandages over the spot here his wing had been, as he glared at her and said, “Finally awake and talking to yourself.” He snorted as she whined in fear and looked away.

He glared angrily at her “ANSWER” as he lashed out, slapping her across the face as she cried out in pain and sobbed hard in fear and pain as she said “Y-Yes…” as she trembled, her cheek red from the hit.
He smirked amused and said “Now stay quiet. I don’t want to hear your whiny voice. You are worth a lot of cash, but if you make me angry, I won’t hesitate to hurt you. Understand?”

She whined and nodded gently. He snarled and instantly grabbed her jaw with his talons as he sneered out, “Answer me!”

She whined and cried out “Y-Yes yes! You are hurting me!” she whimpered in pain, as he grinned amused and said, “Oh I know.” As he tightened his grasp as she tensed and gritted her teeth in pain as his talons dug against her skin.

He licked his beak gently and said, “I am going to enjoy hurting you for losing my wing, you little bitch.”
It was then she couldn’t help herself. She looked at the bandages over the lost wing, soaked in blood from the still open wound, the red hue of the bandages, the thick scent of blood in the room, the crimson red liquid she could practically hear pumping through his veins from his still beating hearth. Rushing and giving him life. She could feel her hunger grow, a craving she had denied herself to satisfy for so long.
She felt the grasp on her jaw loosen and something inside her snapped. All the fear and pain, the terror and horror, all of it suddenly transformed into a rage-induced bloodlust deep within her soul and mind as she suddenly lashed out and bit into his talons with her fanged teeth and pulled hard.

The griffon eyes widened in shock, both mental and physical, as he saw the bleeding stump that had just a second ago been his fully functional talon, as the filly was holding the talon in her jaw, eyes glowing crimson red and her teeth sharp as razors, sharper than anything he had ever seen, as he stepped back, pain starting to fill his very body as he said “W-What kind of freak are you?!”

She spat out the talon on the floor, her jaw coated in blood that was smeared over her fangs as well, as she grinned to him with a red glow in her eyes “I am a fudge-bucking vampire!” as she instantly broke the ropes covering her body with her enhanced strength, as the griffon backed away in fear and said “S-Stay back! Don’t get any closer!”

“Dinner time!” Twilight said and leaped at him. Unholy screams followed from inside the room, followed by silence.

“What the fuck is going on in there?!” a griffon on the other side of the door said in fear as he looked at the door to the room containing the filly “That doesn’t sound like filly-screams!”

“I-I don’t know… Think we should check.” Another said nervously, as there were 3 griffons in total in the room.

The big griffon grunted and nodded, taking the large club he had used to knock the filly out with and moved to the door.
Just a he was about to open it, the door suddenly exploded into the room, sending the griffon back as he landed on his back, and looked up in shock as they all saw the young filly, standing in a position where she had kicked the door with her hindlegs as she said “huh… I guess I am a bit stronger than expected…”

“What did you do with the boss?!” one of the grunts asked with a touch of anger and fear. The young filly blinked, before giggling and said with a small terrifying grin “He tasted delicious.” Licking her blood-soaked fangs, as the griffons blinked in shock and disbelief.

“What the fucking hell?! Get that freak!” one of the griffons yelled, as the big griffon grunted and nodded, as he ran at the pony and moved to strike her down with the club. That is if she had not blocked it with a single hoof, as she smirked and said, “My turn.”
The griffon let out a startled squawk as he was pulled into the air as Twilight had grasped the club and flung him up and over her as he landed on the ground with a powerful sound, the wood under him cracking from the sheer force as he cried out in pain and the last thing he saw was a pony with blood red eyes staring down at him with razor sharp fangs filling her mouth.

The other two griffons watched in terror as their partner was killed, his neck torn open by the filly who had bitten into it and ripped it apart, blood spilling everywhere and coating the wood red.
One of them glared and said, “DIE FREAK!” as she charged over and lashed the sword at the young filly in fear for her own life. The sword reached its target as metal dug into the flesh of the young filly, as she let out a startled gasp, but didn’t fall or react otherwise, as she turned her head and glared at the griffon, who paled in fear as she stepped back.

Twilight growled and used her still weak levitation to dig up the sword from her back with winces in pain as she saw her back and the sword covered in blood as she exclaimed “That hurt you know!”
“M-Monster!” the female griffon yelled in fear, stepping back as the pony glared and growled out, “No. You are the monsters.” As she grasped the sword with her hooves and threw it at the griffon, as it instantly penetrated her skull between her eyes as she slumped over dead instantly.

“And last one.” Twilight said, looking at the last griffon who paled and cried out in fear “N-No! Leave me alone!” as he tore open the door and ran.
Twilight grinned and muttered “Ohh. A chase. How fun.”

.

The griffon panted in panic and fear as he ran through the alleys of Canterlot in the middle of the night, the full moon standing high in the skies above him, as he looked around in fear, looking for anything that could help him, anyone that could give him safety. He ran as fast as he could, wings trembling at his side in terror.

“one… two… Twily’s coming for you.”

His breath hitched in fear as he looked around in panic, hearing the infernal sinister voice of the filly singing in the darkness, not knowing where she was. He kept running in the night, fleeing from the unknown and the unseen, praying this nightmare would soon be over.

“three… four… there’s no lock on the door.”

He whined and kept running, tears of terror spilling from his eyes as he said “LEAVE ME ALONE! I SWEAR I WON’T SAY ANYTHING!”

“Five…. Six… You are out of tricks.”

He trembled in fear, looking around in growing panic as he was breathing hard, his hearth racing hundreds of miles per hour or so it felt, as he could feel the coldness surround him despite it being summer.

“Seven… eight… I’m here to seal your fate.”

He kept running, praying and begging for mercy. He finally stopped running as he reached a dead end, staring at the brick wall in terror as he looked around in panic, breathing heavily and constant sobs in fear escaped him, as he heard from above.

“Nine… ten… Never breath again.”

The silence of Canterlot was broken by a terrified scream filled with horror and fear and then the silence of death.

sorry for another long wait. This chapter was rough on me. Hopefully it was worth the wait.
