Reporting news this just in the vampires have pushed the battlefield once again across the country city of naturreich
A land of nature.. believed origin as to where the god of nature, the Radio was cut off. By my men annoyed at the mention of the gods.
Blood spilling from throats, my fair men and women. Consumed the blood of the fallen soldiers.
Our enemies. Our oppressors. Our.. livestock, I shook my head in an answering no. The queen said to stow that talk to the past. Humans arent livestock, as i stared at my men feeding on brave. Men and women of arms.
They are friends who misunderstand our races point, to keep the population balanced.
Though of course i dont personally believe in that. The queen however is the strongest of us all. And thus we listen.
For only strength matters in our society, the more blood you've consumed the more!—
Would you shut up already? You projecting your thoughts.. sir.
I glared at vennesa, her scowl clear in her voice. Till we heard the sound of transport planes. We. Ran. Like rats in a hole we dived back into our literal rat holes as we transformed. And scurried off into our retreat point.
Breath frantic, air heavy. My lungs heaving from the lack of air we finally made it to our side of the lines. Only to be immediately snatched up by our comrades.
Theirs smiles stretching at our scurrying about.
Whats it hanging rät squadron?
They sniffed and scowled at us, me included, so.. he leaned in towards me, you let. Your men. Drink whats ours?
Are you bloody mad? Or are you mad?
I nodded at the second one and I was kicked hard into the underground wall. Ooof blood splattering my Grey für I transformed into my human form again.
Blood spilling from my mouth as i saw. My comrades being stepped upon. Squishing the life put of them.
One them squeaked the queen said!
Said what? That you rats can have our wolves blood. Hah! You know she only jest. She has a good sense of humor unlike you peasants!
Right. This is the reality of the low caste of
VAMPIRE SOCIETY
Part 2
War of towers.
100 miles left of the front.
Time 10:47
Pov 1
The sound of hypersonic whistles blew across the base trench line. Vampires whistling like our lives depended on it.. because it did.
ears ringing trasportships falling from the sky. The sheer frequency of it all making the machines go haywire made us laugh for once. A field of laughter followed as the crashed to the field below. Giving us exstra cover for our daily run.
They were on the receiving end of death. For once and totally, with no—
A man next to me died by a randomly shot stake rifle.
Oh.. thats right.. for once, the vampires aren't the rulers of death. Humans are.
Even though we kept turning the prisoners of war into us..
We still had less number than when we were forced into the war by the churches.
A scowl at the memory until I realized why. They heard my thought.
And I knew if I survived.
"Shut. Up."
"Sir."
Then upon the orders of the comnander we. charged. like mad dogs we zig zaged as we were trained too.
Jumping from cover armored men and women blew up. Into gory pieces. to cover as our fellow vampires loss precious blood getting shredded by the.. three hundred foot towers erected... i saw it. the blood mist. Soldiers bodies died over and over again. Mist spraying the grounds. Mixing with the dirt. Unreclaimable blood now. the tracker rounds. Yellow blue and orange lights flashing the skies as ships from above begin their hourly.. bombardment.
The sound of echoing balistic rounds falling straight from the atmosphere rods of metal striking us down like.. like gods ready to smite us!
The men and women dying, soldiers howling in pain. The lack of humans to replenish our blood. I began to shred my skin apart. Dying dying all of us dying like dogs amungst the hard winter days!
Memories of my parents abandoning our dog to the snow. For we had no food to feed him. And he was howling keeping us up.. little did we know as we grimaced at his yelps. It was warning, warding us from the vampires that attacked our family soon after.
Im human!!!!
Bloody dam another ones gone made! Shoot the memory suppressants!
And I went down for the count.
13:08
Pov 2
The war continues and flak fire, never stopping continues to rain down. Fire, straight from the heavens herself.
Balistic rounds shot streaking across the sky causing mayhem amungst the lines.
I cant believe so many are losing it.. I know youd think being a vampire was easy but no. Its the memories that— can it soldier or you'll have your blood sucked. Dry.
The wolves howled as if in response to our chatter. The second trenchline Stark of soldiers for any who made it here? Were the lucky ones.
The wolves they send after us to mock our very races higharchy. Began to charge towards attack our trench lines.. and of course being the vampires we are we tried stopping them kindly only to be mauled once more! Our vary nature to subjigate wolves turned against us.
For they had rabbies.
across the front. Straffing us. flack fire for air ships. We're used on mere human sized vampires. Causing devastating blows to our numbers blood supply.
To the point that the weaker ones were sucked dry for more strength.
Waste of bloody space them lot!!
Crimson lit up the battlefield as we charged up the battle lines ignoring the wolves coming for us we sped past them.
our bloody echoes shooting ahead of us. We transferred our minds to the echo ahead. constantly creating a cascading after image of echoesahead of us. Doubling our speed. Faster than conventional weapons. We had no need of long range, for we had!—
Blood splattered besides me and I savored the forbidden taste of vampires blood. Purfied of the impurities. as I continued to charge forward. A vampire just died by a randomly placed stake. And exploded into a blood. Red. Mist.
I heard it, his body contorting, mucles swelling as though from an surface level human. Allergic reaction then.. i was mentally slapped for disturbing my fellow cell of vampires.
Right all I need to focus on is..
Specificly of the god of natures..
tree.
Bloody hells these bastards keep hailing us with heavy rod fire!! Dodging left i flowed across the field dodging hundreds of real rounds per second as my unlucky comrades died in the dozens. Orbital Explosions rocking the ground, shaking my very steps. My very strides.
"Push men push!!"
a vampire commander yelled. As he, of all people charged ahead diverting most of the flak.
It. Wasn't. Enough.
Pov 3
A few hours later..
We made it to the towers. Tall Grey towers, flooding the field with stake fir mixed in with a vast variety of rounds.
Creating a hell of its own for us to survive.
You die if you run out of blood to regenerate. And you die if your staked by the right wood...
I dont know how they didn't get that yet.. must be a church secret, old fools.
Yellow tracking rounds bounced off the grounds every few second.. it was night time now
Whats the time! Its i checked the Deadman watch and saw 23:04 sir
He nodded agreement written all over his face as he looked up.
Now what sir we cant cross the flak line? They have a three sixty central line the only blindspot being where we are!
I know soldier just wait for the blood flare.
Tch. I sat back down in the last trench line their men not even bothering to finish us off. The mud and grim and.. waste they dumped towards us was message enough. We were the ones incruouching not the other way around..
Even though these were. Our territories, our homeland. Our origin, the cell grew sad at that. And j received mutiniess glares from my comrades.
Right I was the outsider here. And I heard groans of discontent, is that all you ever speak about?
Being an outsider?
No im—
its the blood flare!
We jumped up nearly getting our skulls cracked open stakes nearly striking us down. Through the skull, holy blood clot this is bad!
I got stares for that old saying, quietly hearing old man. Even from the captain.
I sighed as the blood flare soared high into the air. And. . . Began to split apart in the dozens.
Why are they.. I squinted my vision squeezing towards it till I saw it was floating blood rivelets. Holy—
They fired up high into the sky, and my spine nearly broke from the sheer force of my back. Mucles squeezing spine.
Its the queen! She just spent precious amounts of blood shooting down.. what?
I looked to were they were going, until my pale face. Darkend to black, I heard hissing to my reaction, but they dont understand.
Its.. thats!! Spit it out old man! Said a freshly maid vampire.
Sighed. Lads its too late to back down from this war.
What are you—
Cracracracracracracracracrack!!! The sound of ships splintering amungst the high atmosphere sounded to us.. in waves, of air. Nearly blowing us out of the trenches. We. Began. To. Dig. Down.
Taaaaaaah!!! The wind burst amungst itself creating a vacoom of air then they all. Came back at once. Attracting the last of the orbital ships towards each other. In clusters
Booooooooooooooooooom!!!!
Like the old war films showing blips falling like balls of fire to the surface below. These too would be blips now fall.
Like fallen angels their burn up the atmosphere setting it aflame, till a white gridded wall protected the rest of it.
A hole now thoroughly burned through space. The conventional war we were fighting. Was now.. interstellar warfare.
