Oh and the whole thing was made in Flash btw Anyway I promised a story last time but never got a around to it so here it is!!!! This will say why Luka looks so pissed at Kain too Enjoy the read!

It was 1842 and Emily had just turned 18. She was a new school teacher and this was her first year teaching the young children. Everyone in this large town knew who she was and they all loved her. But, on thing bother Emily about the town in which she grew up in. It was the castle that sat high above on a mountain top. There were old stories of this place and Emily knew them all by heart. She always wanted to go in there, but never had the courage to sneak in. She would look upon the castle and dream of living with her "knight in shining armor". One day she awoke to people screaming and running about. She quickly got dressed and ran outside to see what was going on. When she ran into the street she saw a eerie horse drawn carriage thundering down the cobble stone streets. The horses, from what she could tell, had red blood eyes and were pure black, the blackest she had ever seen. The carriage itself was black and looked at least over 200 years old. She gasped and the carriage quickly sped by her, missing her by inches. She watched as it came to a halt in the middle of the town. She quickly ran to it. For some un-known reason she was drawn to it. She came upon it while everyone ran to a safe place in the shadows. She touched the carriage with her delicate fingers and walked around it slowly as she looked at it more closely. She looked up at the driver who said nothing to her and she touched one of the horse’s mains. She watched as the driver quickly jumped down and ran over to the door. He opened it and pulled down steps. Emily watched unable to run as she heard people behind her telling her to do so. She saw a foot come from inside and step down on the step down on the metal stair. She hard it hit with a hollow sound as a cap fluttered out. She saw a man place a hat on his head and step out looking around at the old down buildings.
“Brother must we stop here?” a man with white hair asked as he stepped out.
“Yes we must now let’s go,” The man with long black hair said turning towards Emily.
She gasped as she gazed into his yellow eyes. They were so beautiful to look at. She felt herself start to move towards him. Her mind was screaming stop but her feet couldn’t. She watch as the man with the yellow eyes smiled.
“Well hello there,” he said opening his arms as she walked towards him.
She said nothing as she fell into him. He closed his arms around her and held her tightly.
“Hey…” the man with the white hair said.
“What? There are other women here. Go and pick one,” he said smiling at his brother.
The man with the white haired sighed and started down the street. His cane was hitting the old cobble stones as she walked.
“Your name?” they yellowed eyed man asked.
“Emily,” she said in a low tone as her purple eyes gazed upon him.
“I’m Luka. Come now Emily it’s time to go,” he said turning to the carriage.
She said nothing as she stepped in. Once she was inside it felt as if something released her and she came too. She was able to move on her own but it was too late to do anything. She was sitting next to a man that she didn’t even know and she was feeling a bit nervous. She let out a cry before trying to get to the door. Luka grabbed her and smiled.
“Don’t worry my love. I won’t hurt you,” he said placing her down next to him.
She said nothing as she tried to take in what happened. Luka looked out the window and sighed a bit.
“Come one Kain…” he whispered.
“Kain?” she managed to say in a small and weak voice.
“Yes, Kain. He’s my younger brother,” he said truing to her.
“All right let’s go,” Kain said getting back into the carriage with a young beautiful woman Emily knew as the town whore.
Emily looked down then stood up and looked out the back window as the town faded away. She sighed as she sat down and said nothing. They arrived at the castle and Kain quickly took the woman away. Emily only stood there not sure what to do. Luka touched her on her shoulder and she followed.
“Come now. I’m going to get you new clothing,” he said as they walked into the large entrance.
She nodded as he took her up to a room. He called froth some servants many of which Emily had known when she was younger. They were the missing ones that everyone proclaimed were dead. She smiled as the women took her away to change her night cloths to something more suitable. She emerged some time later. Luka stood up and smiled as she looked upon her dress.
“Beautiful,” he whispered as she approached her.
She said nothing as she touched her neck and pulled it to the side some. She couldn’t find her voice to say anything let alone move. She felt a sharp pain in her neck as Luka moved in. She felt weak as warm liquid fell from the wound. Finally he let go and she was able to move again.
“Vampire…” she whispered.
Luka smiled and motioned for her to follow him. She followed without saying a word. She knew what her fate was now, but she thought it wise to follow orders.
*******
It had been eight months since she came to the castle. Every day she spent with Luka she found out something new to him. She was slowing falling in love with him too. He was charming and sweet. He always made sure she was ok and happy. She would always smiled at him and tell him, “ Please don’t worry about me.” He would smile and kiss her saying, “Oh but I do my love.” One day she awoke to see it was snowing. She knew Luka could go outside for the sun was coved by the dark clouds. She rolled over and shook him awake.
“It’s snowing Luka look!” she said pulling back the shades.
“He shielded his eyes a bit before smiling at her.
“Come back under the covers my love. You’ll catch a cold standing there,” he said as she climbed back under the warm blankets.
“Luka may we go outside today? It’s been so long since I’ve gone out,” she said placing her head on his wide chest.
“Yes my love we’ll go. But only for a little bit,” he said holding her tightly.
She smiled as she thought about the first snow of the year. They soon woke up and quickly got dress. She was a head of Luka as she ran to the door to the inner court yard. She tied her cape and threw the doors opened. A blasted of cold air hit her and she shivered a bit. Luka laughed as he approached her.
“Oh Kain!” Emily said turning around to see him standing behind Luka.
Luka turned to see his brother standing there.
“It’s been a while hasn’t it brother?” he said in a cold tone.
“Yes, where did you go?” Luka asked.
Kain only laughed and walked by them.
Emily said nothing as she looked back at Luka. He nodded and she followed Kain out. She ran out into the inner court yard smiling and laughing as she held her hand up to capture the falling snow. Luka walked to Kain to speak to him about his long absence.
“Were have you been Kain?” he asked in a low tone.
“I just had to go and visited and old friend that’s all,” he said smiling at him with an evil grin.
“Liar,” Luka said tiring not to let Emily hear their quarrel.
“Brother, how would you like to lose everything?” Kain asked as he turned to face him.
Luka said nothing as he watched his brother. Kain smiled and turned away from him.
“I would watch it…everything around you is starting to crumble around you,” he said with a laugh as he started for a door.
Luka glared at his brother as he left the inner court yard.
“Emily, let’s go in I’m feeling tired,” he said turning around and going through the door that came out of.
“Yes,” she said felling hurt as she turned and followed.
A few days later there was a loud banging at the door to the bedroom in which Luka and Emily slept. They both jumped up as the door came flying in. It had been kicked off his hinges.
“Let’s go Luka. You’re time as king has ended,” a large vampire said as he grabbed him.
“No! Luka!” Emily said grabbing at him.
Another vampire grabbed her and threw her down back on the bed. She struggled as best she could against his strength but to no avail.
“Don’t harm my whore,” a familiar voice said at the door.
The vampire let go and Emily sat up and watched as Kain walked into the room. She gasped as she started move away from him. With in no time he had her in his arms.
“No!” she screamed as she tried to get away from him.
“Don’t or I’ll drain you,” he said looking at her with his cold ice blue eyes.
She stopped not wanting to move. She was afraid of what was to come.
“Leave and place the door up against the door frame,” Kain said loosening his tie.
She looked down knowing full well what was coming next. The door was in place and the nightmare began.
When he was done she looked up the ceiling not saying a word. She watched as Kain stood up and started getting dressed.
“Why?” she asked sitting up.
“Why what?” he asked looking at her with his cold eyes.
“Why did you do what you did? And where’s Luka?” she asked.
He chuckled a bit then turned to her.
“Luka is locked away on the lowest part of the dungeon. He will never see the light of day again as long as he shall live. As for why I did it. Luka has everything he ever wanted. Father made sure he was happy. He has always had the best toys, the best cloths, he had the throne when father died, mother’s love, and the best women,” he said grabbing her hair. “So then what better way than to take it all away from him?”
Emily looked away and said nothing as he let go of her hair and finished getting dressed.
“You belong to me now, do you hear me?” he said in a low growl. “Now get dressed and come with me.”
Emily did as she was told.
******
A month passed since that day Kain took over and more and more people were coming to congratulate him. The surrounding cities and villages were all disappearing as the vampires began to run ramped. Emily felt herself going into a deeper depression. Finally one evening while she was eating Kain came in the dining room. There was a vampire woman in his arms and he came to Emily.
“I will not be with you tonight,” he said laughing as the girl kissed his neck. “So go to bed without me.”
She nodded and he left the room. She looked down at her plate and started crying an uncontrollable sob. She had been happy with Luka and now she was sure he was dead. She looked down at a sharp knife and looked around the room. No one was there. She picked it up and hid it in her dress. She stood up and announced she was done and started the long walk to her room. When she got there she told the servant girls she was tired and was going to bed. The nodded and left without another word. When she was certain they were gone she pulled the knife from it hiding place and looking at the full moon. Tears started to fall again as she as she placed the cold silver knife upon her neck. With one pull of her arm she severed an artery, killing herself within minutes. But before she died she managed to say one thing…“ Please don’t worry about me.” With that her life ended. Some say that at the moment her life ended a man from far down below screamed in agony from losing the one he loved so dearly. It is also said that on the first snow you can hear a man crying out for his love in the lonely, dark walls of the castle.....
