It was the middle of the night and sitting beside the campfire alone, Isabella read her favourite book "Ninjas of Love" while Valkhan went hunting for food, but he made sure to tell her to keep her guard up unless a creature of the night were to sneak up on her from behind

She doesn't want to find out about this book, mainly because he doesn't know she reads erotic novels so she would just rather she keep this secret hidden

It was getting to the "good part" when Isabella felt a presence behind her, and she turned her head to see Valkhan starring at her with a dead deer over his shoulder

"AHHHH!" Isabella quickly hid the novel in her bag so Valkhan doesn't see it

"What are you reading?" Valkhan asked Isabella before putting the dead dear on the ground

Isabella blushed a deep red

"Oh...um nothing special" Isabella smiled at Valkhan while blushing

Valkhan looked back at Isabella raising his eyebrows at her before he gutted the Deer, to which Isabella looked away

"Did anything happen while I was away?" Valkhan asked grabbing a sharp knife

Isabella paused to think about the question Valkhan had asked her as he was about to prepare the deer to be cooked

"Um no nothing much" Isabella grabbed another book that she owned from her bag

Valkhan stabbed the deer in the chest then dragged it down to its stomach, once he was finished he stabbed the knife in a log that lay beside him and effortlessly thanks to his vampiric heritage ripped the ribcage open

He started to gut the deer pulling the organs out one by one

Valkhan hears a twig break in the distance as he did he immediately shot his head up and looked in the direction of where the noise was coming from and summoned his sword the Bloody-matron, ready for a fight

Valkhan uses one of his special vampire abilities, his thermal vision which sends a pulse that shows the body heat of all living things

(like in Dracula untold the movie)

Isabella notices Valkhan's tension as he stared at something in the woods

"Valkhan?, Valkhan what's wrong?" she stands up and walks behind Valkhan

"I heard a twig break" Valkhan Tightened the grip on his sword

"It's probably nothing" Isabella tried thinking of what it could be

She looked around the camp for something until her eyes landed on a small rough-surfaced rock on the ground near the log

Isabella picked up the rock from the ground and threw it in the bushes disturbing whatever was inside.

Valkhan ready himself for a fight positioning

His feet to prepare for a lung attack

And then...a squirrel ran from the bushes and straight past Valkhan, and they both let out a sigh of relief

"Phew it's just a squirrel" Isabella sat back down with her legs crossed to the side and continued reading another book of hers

A few hours later Valkhan and Isabella went to sleep in the bell tent with a fire burning outside to keep them in the Cold of the Vampire Motherland of Nocturnia, but Is wasn't going to be an easy sleep for Valkhan, because the Nightmares will consume his dreams

Valkhan had been plagued with nightmares of the day his family was brought to the brink of extinction half a millennium ago in the autumn of 1438

He found himself in a dimly lit hallway all too familiar to him

Under his breath, he mumbled in disbelief at where he was the painful memory still fresh in his mind

"Please no!, why am I here? Anywhere but here!" Valkhan was in disbelief, he tries punching himself in the face to wake himself up but to no avail

His face quickly healed itself quite quickly but Valkhan heard sounds of fighting and a familiar voice of his father Vergil

Without thinking, Valkhan ran towards the sounds of battle only to open the door and see multiple piles of bodies scattered all over the throne room and in the distance, he saw his father effortlessly dispatching a group of Gremory warriors

All At once, Vergil had killed a full 10 man team of devils with a single slash of his sword

And their heads and upper bodies separated from the rest of their body

Vergil's mastery with the Yamato was unparalleled by any other swordsman in the underworld and after he sheathed it he looked around seeing no one around but then the doors swung open and 1 hundred soldiers poured through the door and just as Vergil was about to charge but then a huge wave of red lightning filled the room turning the advancing soldiers to ash upon contact.

Vergil swings his head in the direction of where the lightning had come from and he saw a younger Valkhan with His sword the bloody matron on his back and wearing his red armour.

"Valkhan, are your sisters safe?" asked Vergil putting his hand on his son's shoulder

"Yes father I told them to stay in the western guard room with a dozen soldiers they should be safe" replied Young Valkhan but was interrupted when the door to his side opened revealing a woman with purple hair and purple eyes and a curvy figure holding the hand of a little girl with white and purple eyes

"Elizabeth?" young Valkhan frantically asked his big sister figure and mother to his little sister Isabella

"I couldn't say much longer they just kept pouring in, it wasn't safe," said Elizabeth embracing Vergil with a kiss

"I'm glad you alright" Vergil let out a sigh of relief

"Do you know what's happening?" asked Elizabeth

"I don't know, but it seems Zeoticus managed to build his courage up enough to attack us the Coward," Said Vergil who was cleaning the blood-drenched Yamato

"But I was also told that Sirzechs is here as well fighting alongside his father, he must have manipulated him" Vergil put his head down

"W...what do you mean Sirzechs? He's like a brother to me he would never do this" Valkhan did want to believe the name of his best friend and brother-like figure would just turn on them

"Listen son I know he's your friend and I'm truly sorry but if he's attacking alongside his father then you will have to fight him," said Vergil

Valkhan shook his head side to side not wanting to come to terms with this betrayal

"Mama what's happening?" asked a 7-year-old Isabella clenching her mother's cape

"I don't know honey but listen I'll protect you matter what," said Elizabeth putting on a brave face for her young daughter but equally scaring herself

And then to doors to the throne room blew open and 2 figures surrounded by multiple soldiers entered

Zeoticus and Sirzechs were once considered friends to the Leistung family

"Zeoticus why the hell are you attacking us?" Vergil demanded to know

Young Sirzechs and young Valkhan stood at their father's sides staring at each other disbelief and betrayal in their eyes

"You and your family of tyrants of been a plague on the underworld for far too long Vergil, and me and my son are here to put an end to you, Ready yourself my son!" Zeoticus and his son got in a battle In a battle position as Vergil and his son did the same

Young Valkhan took his sword from his back and pointed it at Sirzechs hoping he didn't of to kill his brother-like figure

They then charged at each other and clashing swords against one another

Young Valkhan tried slashing at Sirzechs but he died backwards and young Valkhan followed looking for an opening

"You were like a brother to me!" young Valkhan shouted at Sirzechs

"Aye I thought the same thing, Valkhan but My Father told me what Vergil did to my mother," said Sirzechs

"What do you mean?" Young Valkhan was caught off guard but was roundhouse kicked by Sirzechs in the face sending him backwards

The battles between fathers and sons was one full of emotion, for year's the leistungs were considered friends of the Gremory house unaware to Young Valkhan and his father two soldiers had snuck up behind Elizabeth and her daughter and held knives to their necks ready to cut them

Vergil saw this and immediately threw the Yamato on the ground and kneeled not wanting his family to get hurt

"Father pick up your sword!" Valkhan pleaded with his father not to surrender but Vergil feared if he did make a move then they would be killed

Zeoticus turned to the soldier who had his sword to Elizabeth's neck and Slashed her throat and a fountain of blood erupted from her neck

"MOMMY!!!" sniffled Isabella who started to cry uncontrollably

Seeing this The Valkhan dropped his sword and dropped to the floor crying in disbelief but that grief came with a rage that would stay with him for centuries to come

And he grabbed his sword and charged at the soldier but Sirzechs took this opportunity and fired a ball of Destruction at Him hitting his face with an explosion of blood and smoke

Sirzechs for the briefest moment had Regret in his eyes

Valkhan fell to the floor barely hanging on showing his gruesome wound that had destroyed the flesh right down to the bone but Valkhan was dead just yet he looked to his father

"Valkhan!" screamed Vergil who looked at zeoticus with rage

"This is what's going to happen I'm going to take Isabella and when she is of age she will be used to breed a new army completely loyal to my family" Said Zeoticus pointing towards a guard grabbed her by the hair and fighting to get to her mother

Vergil saw how hopeless fighting was so with a smile on his face he turned to a half-dead Valkhan who was barely hanging on from his wound

"Fight well and find your mother my son, and know that I will always love you," Vergil said before looking back at zeoticus who had picked up the Yamato and stabbed him in his chest killing him

Zeoticus smiles knowing victory was his, but that was cut short when he turned his head and saw Valkhan standing with a psychotic look on of anger his face

The monster is born.

He looked up towards his fathers killer sending a shiver down his spine and ordered his son to fire another at him

Sirzechs fired another but nothing, it seems that Valkhan's body had already developed a resistance to The power of destruction or he was too close to death to realise it

Valkhans insane laughter filled the room before turning his attention to zeoticus and with his might and power let out a high pitched scream

"GRAAHHHHH!!!!" all the remaining soldiers slowly started to take a step back even zeoticus and his son did the same as a red ball of lightning consumed Valkhan and yet another high-pitched roar came from him

And now Valkhan was revealed to be in a new form his Devil Trigger as his family called it and he threw red light at random in the room killing all the soldiers apart from the treacherous Lord and his son and then Valkhan dashed at ultra-high speeds grabbing his sister and flying off out the window

But then Valkhan woke up from his nightmare and by a high pitched scream coming from outside and both he and Isabella ran outside to see a large group of ferals running at them

Valkhan immediately grabbed his sword and told Isabella to get behind him

Outnumbered and surrounded Valkhan and Isabella fought the oncoming tide of ferals who had been eating for the perfect moment but as more and more Ferals rushed them He felt a rage swelling deep inside him until he snapped and a ball of blue lightning consumed him

And he had taking in a new form

his devil Trigger!

The shockwave from the transformation sent all the ferals back and they all let out a roar

But he sent an attack powerful enough at the ferals but another attack was also thrown and not by Valkhan or Isabella but from someone else

And after the explosion, he deactivated his devil form and looked dead ahead to see a woman with black have and red eyes walking through all the charred bodies of dead ferals

"Bonjour Lord Valkhan, it's a pleasure to meet you" said The women wearing a gothic red and black dress

"Who are you?" asked Valkhan with his sword at his side

"My name is Cerise" cerise responded to His question
