Chapters Where Am I? Who Am I? What Am I?
Author's Note
This happens at Manehatten since it's not elaborated much in the chapter.
Also if you couldn't tell with the subtle description, the main character is a red coated unicorn mare with blue mane and tail and also has brown eyes. Carry on with the story.
Where Am I? Who Am I? What Am I?
I woke up in my bed and got up to get ready for work. Work? Since when did I have a job, I'm only 14. I said in my head. But I then remembered that I'm actually 32 and have been working in a cafe for the past 6 years. I looked at myself in my mirror after I got ready. Since when have I been a pony from equestria! I yelled in my head but then remembered I've always been a pony.
Brushed my blue mane and tail? Check. Washed my red coat? Check. Made sure there was nothing in the grooves of my horn? Check. Put on my brown trench coat, my yellow pants, and green shirt? Check. Brushed my slightly fanged mouth? Check. My brown eyes aren't red? Check.
Looks like I didn't forget anything. So I went, got my keys, left the apartment and locked the door behind me. I walked down to the other end of the small hallway until the end and went down the stairs to my right. After going from the second floor to the first I passed by the receptionist and said bye to her while leaving the apartment building, which was a slightly large rectangle shaped building made of bricks and stone on the outside.
After walking for an hour I checked my watch and realized I might become late and I obviously don't want that. So I used a bit of my red colored magic to use a speed spell to help me get there in time.
After sprinting for 25 minutes I was at the cafe, 'Wake Up Call', that I worked at on time.
"Bloody Eris, your lucky your on time," said my boss Red Sea, he is a earth pony with a turquoise coat, red mane and tail, along with green eyes. He's wearing that suit as always when he's at work, black suit, black tie, and black pants. The song Marry Me comes to mind from that outfit I commented in my head. Wait I've never heard of that song before.
"So what am I doing today boss?" I asked Red Sea this question with slight excitement in my voice.
"Your going to be a waitress today is what Eris," was Red Sea's reply. I went to the back and changed into my waitress outfit, which is just a small black dress that went down to my knees. I always love being a waitress since I attract some stallions or the occasional mare to feed on since they tend to stay until I leave work in the afternoon. Feed on? I asked myself not remembering that I was a vampire for a second.
I walked out of the changing room and asked newcomers what they would like after I gave them a menu, writing their order down, giving it to the chef, then took the food to the customer, and went to the next customer and have the process go again, this lasted for about 2 hours. That was until I saw him. He was a thestral with a bright blue coat, neon purple main and tail,and dark red slitted eyes, he also has the fangs and bat-like wings of any thestral. He was wearing a black plain shirt with some dark purple pants.
For a fraction of a second I was stunned by how he looked but shook my head telling myself that I can fawn over his looks when I was done with work. I walked to the table he sat at in the corner near the window and asked him what he wanted after giving him a second to see what's on the menu for today.
"I will have a medium coffee with a chocolate donut," he said in a rather handsome voice. I wrote it down and gave it to the chef, Crazy Dish, and went to the next customer.
The stallion thestral is still here and it's been over 4 hour! He's either in my trap of good looks or something else is going on. I am now leaving with my earlier clothes on (yellow pants, green shirt, and brown trench coat) and switched places with Alluring Trap, she takes the rest of the business hours as whatever I was in the morning. I saw him go and leave a tip on his way out. He might be following or maybe it's coincidence I shook my head at that thought, no one stays at a cafe for 4 hours, it's unheard of.
I likely have a thestral following me. To think that it's usual for me to get followed. So we walked into the library in town and I looked in the fiction are since I love to see myths and stories that aren't real, it brings you to another world in ones point of view or just watch in a way that only spirits can unless your using a surveillance spell. I noticed the thestral was looking through the history section. Perhaps he has an interest in history or he's trying to look non suspicious.
I picked a book called 'The Half Immortal Couple' it was by someone named Bleak Read. I like some romance stories every once and a while. I found a seat and after getting comfortable in the seat I opened the book. I also noticed the thestral was sitting across from me reading some history about the Frozen North of all places, but I don't judge unless the being in question does something to my life negatively on it's own free will.
After that I went around doing what I normally do on Friday's, get groceries, watch a small movie, and have lunch at the park. During all of those he followed me and he still is. I'm on my way home and decide to go into an alleyway so I can confront him. He followed me in and I put him in a choke hold from behind and asked, "Why have you been following me every where I go?"
His response was, "Because your a supernatural like me and my little group at Canterlot, the Inner Circle."
"How did you know and what supernatural are you?" I asked while releasing him from my choke hold.
He rubbed his neck while saying, "I knew because I know a vampire when I smell one and I'm a werewolf."
Meeting Others Similar To Me. In A Way.
After he said that I noticed that I'm pretty hungry so I asked a very nervous voice, "Would it be alright if I, um, have a bite of you?"
"Do you mean take some of my blood?" he asked while raising an eyebrow. When I said yes he was fine with it. So I went behind him and bit into his neck....His blood is like pure heaven! I was barely able to stop myself from taking too much. When I took my teeth off his neck I went around to face him, he seemed to be blushing for some reason too.
He mumbled, "Not to self: don't let a vampire bite you unless you are a close couple." Did he actually like that? Cheesecake launched with fudge I need to remember that.
"Why exactly were you moaning earlier?" he asked. Now I'm blushing really hard after realizing that I was, in fact, moaning from how good his blood was.
I answered him in a whisper. "Because your blood is best I've had in all my life." I cleared my throat and said, "I don't believe I got your name."
"Of course how rude of me. My name is Savage Wing, and you are?" he answered and asked.
"Bloody Eris is the name, copying others is the game, along with drinking blood of course," was my 'brilliant' answer. I invited him to stay in my apartment for the night and after he said yes I was really happy for some reason but I kept it hidden under a mask I've had since my grandmother passed. Along with my parents, family, and friends, all in a robbery some idiots tried making that went wild I thought sadly, and surprised since I remember my grandmother passing away because she was really old and she was sick.
When we went inside my apartment I put my keys on my small table next to the door and hanged my trench coat on a hanger next the table. After that I made my couch unfold to a mattress for Savage to sleep on. I put an extra blue blanket and purple pillow on the bed before going to make dinner for myself and my guest.
I went into my kitchen and went to my stove to the right and put a pot full of water on. After turning on the stove to boil the water I put on my apron that says 'Don't Kiss The Cook Or You're In The Next Recipe'.
"That is a rather unique apron," commented Savage.
"Why thank you Savage, it took about a week's worth of free time before it was complete," I said, happy with his comment about my apron. I went to check on the water and found it boiling just right and turned down the power of the stove to keep it at the temperature it's at during this moment. I then went and chopped some carrots and cabbage, after making sure Savage likes those, which he does.
I put the chopped carrots and cabbage into the boiling water and putting a little seasoning into it to give the soup more flavor when it's done, I then put my secret ingredient, that's in a circle shaped bottle, into the mix. After stirring it some and waiting it to cool down, after turning off the stove, I served it in bowls on the wooden average sized table I had ten steps from the kitchen.
My cooking isn't amazing but it's good enough to not be to bad. Savage commented about my cooking is pretty good and I replied with, "I'm just an average when it comes to cooking, you should have seen my mom's cooking before she passed, she was a really good cook, in fact it was good enough for it to be her second cutie mark if those existed." I said this with no sadness since I got over her passing along with everyone else at least 23 years ago.
Savage said, "I'm sorry for your lost."
I replied with, "Don't worry about it, I got over it 23 years ago."
"Jeez, you were that young?"
"Yep, Only 9 years old when it happened."
"Now I feel really sorry."
"Don't be, like I said I got over it."
"You got over it in the same year they died?!"
"I always was a little bad at feeling emotions until after they died. I like to see the positives of things and I don't look in the past unless I was remembering something." With that I went back to my soup. After we were done with our soup I told him goodnight and did my nightly routine, take a shower, change my clothes into pajamas, and brush my teeth. After that I went and saw Savage fast asleep on the couch-turned bed and I went to bed and soon joined the dream realm as well.
In Eris's Dream
I was singing a really nice song that said my past in a way.
When the song was over I noticed I was in the Frozen North and I saw two ponies struggling to get out of the snow. They were two mares, one a unicorn and the other was an earth pony, the earth pony was wearing a suit and tie for mares along with some pants and the unicorn was wearing a white shirt, some purple shades, and some pants. The earth pony had a grey coat and a black and tail that had very thin streaks of grey that wasn't signaling she was old, the unicorn had a pure white coat with a mane and tail with three shades of blue as their color.
"Hey!" I yelled to them. When they looked at me I asked them what they were doing out here.
"I don't know! We were just in our bed going to sleep when suddenly we were in the Frozen North! We're trying to find the Crystal Empire so that way we won't freeze to death!" was my answer from the unicorn. I snapped my hand thinking about a nice sunny, relaxing beach and the three of us were there.
"How did we get here?" wondered the earth pony who had a Canterlot accent nobles would have.
"Odd. I was thinking of a beach like this and now we're here, this must be some kind of joined dream," I said, trying to figure out an explanation for what happened.
"That would be because we are Miss Eris," said a new voice I haven't heard before. I looked behind me and saw Princess Luna, I bowed immediately.
"Princess Luna," I got up, "What are you doing here if I may ask?"
"I came here because of new information I have collected from Savage Wing, from what he told me you are a supernatural just like everyone in this dream," was her answer.
"Hey Luna, why exactly are we here then?" asked the unicorn.
"Because Vinyl Scratch, I need you to know about Eris here so that way she can join, but only if she wants to," was the Princess's reply to the supposed Vinyl Scratch. Then for some reason a demon, by the looks of it, with a scared look ran by being chased by a chest with black tentacles and a taxi with wheels and sharp teeth on the front, they luckily went through a portal after running for a bit.
"Princess, what were those and where'd they come from," asked the earth pony.
"I have no idea Octavia," was the Princess's reply. Then music started playing with me saying the lyrics along with some white ghost with glowing blue eyes.
After the song was over the scene seemed to have changed to some underground room. Then one of the worst jumpscares I've ever had happened with me waking up.
In The Real World
I woke up in a calm manner and sat up slowly. I then climbed out of bed and got ready for another day, this time wearing a yellow shirt and a pair of green pants for the day. Savage asked if he wanted to go to the next meeting of the Inner Circle, which is tonight in Canterlot, and I said yes.
"Let's just go to Canterlot, I have no work on weekends so I'm free. You?" I said. He said that he was free on Saturdays so he was good as well. So we exited the apartment building and walked to the train station.
"We would like two tickets to Canterlot please?" I told the train ticket person, I don't know what they'er called but whatever. He said that would be four bits and I payed and got us tickets.
"Now to wait for the train," I said.
It took about an hour, but the train finally arrived. We got into a train car and found the Bearers of Harmony in the same car we were assigned to but we ignored them mostly. But during the ride I couldn't help but overhear something about a 'crystalling', whatever that is. But my thought went wild when I heard that. I'm in season 6, episode 1 it seems was the only thought I could actually understand. I shook my head and tried to get my mind off it with some music after putting a blood red bubble around me so no one could hear it.
I had no idea where it come from but it seemed familiar. Great. Now something else to wonder about I thought bitterly. I looked out the window and found the train pulling up on Canterlot Station.
"Canterlot Station!" yelled the conductor. Me and Savage went out of the train and the first place I wanted to go to was the Royal Gardens. Savage knew Canterlot well so he took one of the quickest routes to there with me following him. While getting there we saw a unicorn stallion beating a pegasus mare. I used my magic to levitate him away from her.
In Third Person
Eris used her red magic to keep the unicorn on the wall while Savage went to check on the mare. Eris went to the unicorn stallion and asked him a question,"Why were you beating her?"
He adopted a face of annoyance, he was a noble if his clothes and voice say anything. "I was doing it because she owed me bits and didn't pay back on the due date again," was his answer. Eris was glaring at him with a smirk. Her eyes turned blood red, like her magic aura, and her teeth were similar to Nightmare Moon's, nothing but fangs for teeth, when she smirked.
"That is a rather stupid reason and have you ever thought of asking her why she didn't have the money?" Eris asked with a scary tone of joy.
"No," replied the stallion, starting to get kinda scared of Eris.
"Well you need to be punished!" she said with a very scary amount of joy, "It will be tonight and it will be nightmares that Princess Luna can't save you from."
In First Person
I turned my eyes back to brown and my teeth to their regular selves with just two small canines after dropping the stallion.
"Now get going before I think of something else to punish you with," I said in a whisper of anger. He ran in fear after I said that. I turned around and saw Savage and the pegasus mare staring at me in surprise and slight fear.
"Do I have something on my face?" I asked the two.
The mare shook her head and said, "Sorry, it's just that you made him so scared by just talking to him. Nobles like him are very hard to scare since their heads are always so far in the ground." By the sounds of it she's from Fillydelphia.
"Sorry but we must get going. Have a nice day," Savage said. After we said our goodbyes me and Savage continued on our way to the Gardens.
Author's Note
Just so you know, all this influenced info is true about my life except the age of 14, at least until April 12th, 2018. Also only my grandma passed away and no one else I know has passed to the next/after life.
The songs and videos I used are not mine.
Hey Eris, you okay? I'm fine. Now can we complete our brake so we can continue? Yes madam! *Saluting*

Meeting The Princess Of The Night. Along With Some Other Supernaturals.
Savage and I finally made it to the Royal Gardens. It was really beautiful. There were beautiful flowers, greatly shaped hedges, and there were many peaceful animals going about the area. I smiled at all that. "I rarely see anything like this," I said in amazement at how the Gardens looked.
"I thought so, you don't know beautiful until you see this place," Savage said and muttered something after that I couldn't understand. We walked around admiring the scenery around us. We walked passed roses, daisies, tulips, and so much more.
We stopped at a little clearing with a bench and sat there just admiring the natural beauty nature has. "So were you born as a werewolf or were you turned into one?" I asked Savage Wing hoping I didn't offend him.
He smiled and said, "I was naturally born as a werewolf. How about you did you get turned into a vampire or born as one?" I cringed at the subject but I decided to tell him how I was turned.
"I was turned into one by another, he said that he could help ease my pain of losing my family but he just made me have a more difficult life, last I saw him he was dead without any blood in a alleyway," was my answer to Savage's question. "I have no regrets that I killed someone," I said before he asked the predictable question. Some animals were approaching us as we were talking, likely since we weren't doing any sudden movements or anything like that to scare them.
"If you don't mind me asking, what happened to your family?" Savage asked the million bit question. I adopted a look of anger and sadness when he asked that question.
I answered by saying, "My grandmother died of old age and she was sick which made it worse, I became slightly unstable for some time after that. The rest of my family was at a bank during a robbery some idiots were making, my family was in the cross fire. What makes it funny is that I was only thirteen at the time." Savage adopted a face of pity for me after I finished.
"Must have been hard to deal with that at such a young age," Savage said with pity. I laughed at that. I full on genuinely laughed at that. Savage was looking at me like I was crazy, which I technically am. "How could you be laughing at that, we are talking about your family's death here!" Savage yelled, making the animals scatter for a second.
I got my laughter under control and said, "I got over their death a year after they died and thanks to that I actually got my cutie mark." I showed him my cutie mark by making it appear on my right hand, it's a hand held mirror with some blood dripping down and a music note floating in the reflection. Savage lost his angry look and inspected my cutie mark closer.
"What exactly is your cutie mark representing?" Savage asked after being done inspecting my cutie mark.
I giggled and said in a seductive tone, "It says that I'm a vampire, that I'm an actor, and that I copy others music though I could make my own music."
Savage raised an eyebrow at that and said, "Could I get a demonstration other than the vampire part?" I said yes and decided to copy some music at the part of my mind that these strange thoughts come from.
While I was singing the animals come around and actually interacted with us. They nuzzled and cuddled and more during the song that I was singing and making music for.
When the song ended the animal stayed where they were. We stayed like this for the next fifteen minutes I believe before we continued our look around the Royal Gardens with the animals following us during our look around.
By the time I was done admiring the Gardens it was sunset. Me and Savage left the Gardens and went to the meeting place for the 'Inner Circle' as they call it. When we got their it turned out to be a donut shop. Meh. Me and Savage entered the shop which was full of werewolves and vampires mostly but there was a fairy I think somewhere near Princess Luna. Princess Luna stood up and announced, "Good evening everyone. It is now seven o'clock and everypony is here as well as accounted for. Pony Joe?"
An earth pony I'm guessing is Pony Joe said, "Yes Princess?"
Princess Luna gave him a pouch full of bits and said, "Go and enjoy yourself for the night."
He saluted and said, "Right oh Princess," before leaving the place.
"Now first Pinkie Pie please leave the building," Luna said. Than Pinkie Pie fell from the roof and landed right next to me. She stood up, saluted, and went out the building. The song Gypsy Bard comes to mind for some reason. Princess Luna then continued by saying, "Now Miss Eris could you introduce yourself." I got kinda nervous but I put it in my safe and got up to the stage.
I didn't know what to say so I just introduced myself, "Hello everyone, my name is Bloody Eris but just call me Eris please. Is there any questions you have about me?" A hand was raised by a werewolf in their wolf form which is kinda cute to be honest.
I chose the mare and she asked, "What supernatural are you?" I said that I was a vampire and then asked if their were anymore questions.
A vampire, I think, raised his hand and asked, "How old are you?" A lot of mares glared at him with that question. I giggled and said that I'm thirty two years old and that I'm not offended by the question.
One more hand rose up, it was a small pony with fairy like wings, it was either an actual fairy or a Breezy that's a supernatural, "Were you born as a vampire or turned into one?" A few vampires glared at the possibly sensitive question.
I laughed for a second before saying, "I was turned into one, would anyone like to know how?" Everyone shook their heads and since there were no more questions I got off the stage and went to a corner. Two mares went up to me, it was those two ponies in my dream.
"Vinyl Scratch and Octavia. Am I correct?" When I asked that the two nodded and introduced themselves. The one named Octavia was acting slightly shy but I don't think she usually is since she's a musician that performs in a public theater a lot of the time. I asked her with Vinyl's voice, "Is there something on your mind Octavia?" She looked shocked that I was able to copy Vinyl's voice perfectly.
But before Octavia could say what's wrong Vinyl beat her to the punch by saying, "She would like to know how you were turned to a vampire. Same goes with me." I nodded and told them how it happened. "Dang. I feel sorry for ya," commented Vinyl after hearing the story.
"Don't worry about it. He's where he belongs now," I said in a slightly crazed tone. Octavia asked what I did and I said casually, "Oh I just killed him and drained his blood in a alleyway leaving no evidence behind."
"So you murdered him," stated Vinyl. I nodded with a crazed smile and did a shushing motion. After a little bit the meeting was adjourned until next Saturday.
After me and Savage Wing left the building he asked me about how I thought of it. "It's like a slightly dysfunctional family with a Princess in charge of it...but it's a good kind of dysfunctional," was my answer to his question.
I asked if he wanted to show me anything else while we were here and his answer was, "Have you ever been to a night club?" I told him no and he lead me to a short line that leads into...a night club. I don't exactly like the idea of being there but there's a first time for everything.

Night Clubs. The Universe Doesn't Like Me Going Into One. Unless It's Just This One Time, Which I Doubt.
When we entered the night club the first thing I heard was the worst music in existence, in my point of view. Dubstep. I despise the music, I'm fine with others listening to it but I hate hearing the cursed music myself most of the time, I only like it if it's actually good. The first thing I did was put my ear muffs on, you can't tell but they make you completely deaf if the enchantment they have is on at the time.
Savage did a motion that's meant to say 'take the ear muffs off,' I took them off like he wanted and he asked, "Not a fan of the music?" I nodded and found a bar. I'm not an alcoholic so I just asked for some blood orange juice, which is what I use as a substitute for blood. After I was given my drink an explosion of all things happened at the doors. I was pretty angry when I saw it was those supernatural hunters, their names escape me at the moment.
I put my drink down and walked until I was a few yards away from the entrance before asking, "Excuse me good sirs but why exactly did you blow up the entrance?" Their response was shooting a silver bullet at me, I dodged it and purposefully made it cut my right hand's wrist so I can use one of my specialties. I can use a special magic called blood magic but I'll talk more about it later. There are also about seven of them by the way, all stallions and most of them earth ponies and the rest are pegasi except for one unicorn.
I made a sword with my blood and deflected the next bullet with it, which destroyed some of it. 'Darn! This blade won't last long. I need to be quick with the killing,' I got really excited at the idea of killing for some reason when I don't like it usually. They kept shooting at me, luckily I'm very good at dodging otherwise I would have a pretty short story now wouldn't I. I needed some music so I summoned some to confuse them and entertain me.
I stayed hidden in the crowd at first but I teleported and cut one down before appearing in front of them. They tried to shoot but I kept dodging and I'm now running along the wall to avoid them before going back in the crowd to stay hidden. I then got rid of another one and vanished again before they noticed me. I made a convincing illusion of me but I was glitching like a broken computer. What's a computer? What ever. The illusion blasted a glitching bolt of magic that killed the rest but one, I don't know how it worked but it did.
The illusion along with the music faded and I told the last stallion, the unicorn, this, "Have innocents involved again and there will be no mercy from me." The stallion ran faster than you could say 'sonic boom' to his leader, most likely. Vinyl seemed to appear out of nowhere and thanked me for that.
"My pleasure, I hate it when innocents are involved or some that aren't a part of it. Sorry about the mess by the way," was my casual response. I drank my blood orange juice, gave the guy the payment with a small tip, payed Vinyl what was likely needed to clean the mess up, and dragged Savage out of the place with me and didn't stop until we were a mile away from the night club.
Once I let him go he asked, "Where'd you learn to fight like that and how were you able to control blood? Last I checked that's impossible," My reply was that it was instinct for the fighting mostly and the blood thing was because of practice after finding out I could do that. He didn't believe the fighting part for about five minutes before giving up on it. We decided to just walk the streets of Canterlot, admiring the night sky and how peaceful the city looked at this time.
We found ourselves back at the Royal Gardens which seemed even more beautiful than it was in the day time. We just sat at the bench and stared at the beauty the place and sky have in the night. I'm not sure about Savage but I was enchanted by the sky's beauty and how the moonlight makes the Gardens feel so calm and inviting, just like the day but better. I took a blood bag and drank it(bleh) since I was hungry and didn't want to be embarrassed again.
I noticed this one statue next to our bench. It was a male creature called a 'human' and the plaque said it was Van, the human of lies and creator of the supernaturals. The last part was enchanted so only supernaturals could see it so he's mostly known as the 'human of lies,' I wonder why. 'Wait. That's me!' a stray thought said. That is obviously not me, I'm a pony and a female.
'No that's me! I recognize that look anywhere!' the thought argued with me. I was starting to have a mental argument before Savage saved me by saying, "You alright there Eris? You're getting slightly pale." He looked slightly worried about me and I told him I was alright. Sadly his distraction lasted only a few seconds before I went to arguing with myself.
I'm not a human or male! 'But I am. What's going on?' I thought. I stood up and walked out of the Gardens as fast as I could without seeming to be in a hurry so I could get away from the statue. When I was out of sight I turned myself into a blue coated and red maned unicorn with emerald green eyes, I don't want Savage to find me and ask if I was okay. I kept walking until I found a sight that put a smile on my face.
There were two ponies fighting each other, usually I dislike this type of scene but I need to get my mind off that statue. The two were both earth pony stallions that seemed almost drunk, if there lack of balance says anything, and were wearing outfits that a thug would wear which makes me want to gag but smile at the same time for some reason. I knocked them out with my magic and gave myself a drink of their blood. "Not that good but whatever," I commented after leaving their bodies there.

Does anyone know the name of those supernatural hunters from 'My Roommate Is A Vampire'? 'Cause I really forgot what they are called.
Also does anyone want a child oc in this story that thinks he's a vampire and not op or something like that? If so please message me, not comment since I don't want spoilers.
