Amelia VanHaggart rested back against a tree as she tried to catch her breath. Tonight would be her first mission in trying to kill the vile creatures of the night that were harassing her townsfolk. All but one Vampire had left the village due to being sick of having to fight her family, the amount of non-hunter blood diminishing, and what little blood there was left wasn't worth fighting the VanHaggart family to get it.
Now that Amelia was nineteen, it was her turn to prove herself and take on this lone vampire to win her place in the line of Hunters. But Amelia's thoughts were full of doubt: She feared that she would freeze, the vampire would be so hypnotic and seductive that she would completely lose herself and forget her mission. But above all else, she feared being bit or becoming one of them.
Shaking her thoughts aside, Amelia remembered the encouraging words of her father, secured the sword upon her back and the bow upon her arm, and set off upon her path; running as fast as she could to try and reach the Vampire's Lair before the sun went down.
