章節 5: What's Happening To Me?
"Lucian! Come give me a hug!"
"I'm coming!"
A young child dashed into a woman's widespread arms, relishing in the warm feeling of comfort that washed over him.
Being with this woman made him feel safe.
It was as if everything would be alright as long as she was there with him.
"Aww? No hugs for me?" a man's voice questioned.
Lucian turned and looked at the man.
"It's free for mom, but you need to pay. 1 hug costs 1 ice cream cone, and don't try to swindle me this time with an empty cone. I want actual ice cream on it!"
The man smiled.
"Cheeky brat! Fine, I'll give you your ice cream cone, with ice cream on it. Do we have a deal now?"
Lucian nodded his head and dove into his father's embrace.
"That's more like it!"
Lucian's father rustled Lucian's hair with his left palm.
Despite seemingly happy while hugging his dad, tears began to leak from Lucian's eyes.
Noticing it, Lucian's dad smiled somberly and gently rubbed his son's back.
"Good job on holding out this long son. I'm sure your 'real' parents would have been proud."
Lucian pulled his head off of his dad's chest.
Wiping his tears with his sleeve, Lucian did his best attempt at a smile.
"I'm fine dad, see! There's no way your son wouldn't be able to handle something as little as this! I promise to take care of the company! Otherwise, how could I call myself a Sanguinis?"
Lucian's mother also joined in on the embrace, wiping the remainder of Lucian's tears off with her delicate fingers.
"I'm sorry the two of us couldn't do a better job in raising you, but I'm sure we would be proud of the man you've become."
Lucian shook his head.
"You don't need to apologize, I know whatever happened was out of your control."
She smiled sadly.
"Also," Lucian's father spoke up, "Make sure to treat Stella properly. You know how much she cares for you. Don't make her cry."
Lucian threw his dad a look of disbelief.
"You do understand the power dynamic in our relationship, right? That gorilla-woman is the one who makes me cry!"
"Don't let her catch you saying that."
Lucian's body shivered.
"I've already learned that the hard way."
Lucian's mother chuckled.
"It seems our dear boy has his work cut out for him!"
Sighing, Lucian nodded his head.
"You have no idea…"
The three of them spent their time idly talking, however, it didn't stay that way for long.
Lucian suddenly felt his connection with this place growing weaker by the second.
Understanding that it was time for him to go, he slowly stood up.
"Mom, Dad, thanks for seeing me again, even if it was just a dream. I promise you that I won't let those greedy bastards take what belongs to our family. Don't worry, I won't let you down."
"Silly child, we're your parents, no matter what, we will always worry for you. It doesn't matter how old you get, you will still be our son."
"Go give them hell! Show those two-faced bastards what my son is capable of!"
Lucian gave his parents one last hug before he closed his eyes.
When he re-opened them, he found himself on a white bed in what appeared to be a hospital room.
However, this room was somewhat familiar for Lucian.
After all, this was just another room in his house.
"I haven't dreamed of them in so long… Maybe this was a byproduct of that thing going into my brain?"
Climbing out of the bed, his eyes coincidentally landed on one of the mirrors fixated on the adjacent wall.
Almost nothing about him was different from before.
Except… For one major difference.
His eyes were glowing blood red!
Lucian staggered towards the mirror in disbelief.
"W-whats going on? Alecia?"
Just as Lucian was about to close his mouth, he paused.
Something was off about his mouth.
Something about his teeth seemed different from before.
In a panic, Lucian opened his mouth wide.
Only to find two extremely large fangs protruding from his upper jaw.
He ran his finger across his left fang in disbelief, accidentally cutting said finger in the process.
Sharp!
He had barely applied any pressure and it still managed to cut his finger.
"What's going on?"
Just as Lucian fell into a panic, he noticed a large rectangular box appear again in his sight.
[Vampirization Process Complete]
"Vampirization process? Blood red eyes and sharp fangs? Oh no… Don't tell me…"
The doors to the room opened and a humanoid-shaped robot entered.
"It's as you have feared. You appear to have been turned into a Vampire."
