Darkness and Light

You have earned the respect of the other vampires, and most of them have begun to treat you with more dignity. You have also taken several more trips to the human realm, and have learned to control yourself so you haven't killed anyone else. The sleep spell you have learned proves invaluable in remaining undetected. All is going well, until one night...

You are alone in a small town, scoping out your next victim. Suddenly, you sense a presence trying to sneak up on you. Before you can even turn around, a fiery pain consumes your entire body, and you collapse in agony.

Looking behind you, you see man in a large white robe. In his outstretched hand is a cross, giving off a faint blue glow.

"Hahaha, magnificant!" the man exclaims. The glint in his intense blue eyes seem fimiliar, as does his wavy brown hair... then you realize this is a spitting image of the teenage boy you killed those few weeks ago!

"I thought the old lady was a phony, but it appears that some of her relics work after all!" The man glares at you. "So, vampire, are you ready to meet your doom? With this," he nods towards the cross in his hand, "you will be the first of many! No one will laugh at me now!! Hahaha!!"

You try to ignore the searing pain and formulate a plan...
