had told her his feelings, and if they had embarked on a relationship together. I wondered if Benedict was a relation of Gavin’s and where the missing diary extracts were. It made me feel positive that what Gavin had told me was true and we could live a normal lifestyle. If a vampire from the 1900’s had managed human feelings and co-existence I’m sure we could.
The next book was dusty and some of the pages had faded as I began to read I understood what Alice and Gavin had meant as it detailed human killings and blood lust; dating back to the 14 th and 15 th centuries. I felt horrified as I read how they tricked woman and children, as they were more vulnerable and weak. Pacts of vampires could wipe out entire small villages in rural England and people believed it was the work of the devil. The book also went into some detail about the groups that hunted them and how one group of 18 vampires were captured and a whole house was burned with them inside but people did not possess the skills to deal with vampires in this age and truly believed god was punishing them and the devil was roaming freely. I decided to try another book as I wanted information about the evolution of the vampire race and found a book that contained lists that seemed to chronicle the years. It appeared that in the 16 th century in England vampires reached their highest levels in power and population. The vampire race took advantage of both the civil war that took part during the years 1642 to 1651 and the Black Death that took a great hold on the country in the years 1665 and 1666. There was great unrest and death during these periods and vampires took advantage and went on huge killing sprees. It is sometime after this that vampire hunters started to take control as they started to realise it was not the devil or punishment. Huge numbers of vampires were burned alive in broad daylight and stabbed through the heart with spears. I flicked through the book looking for information about the changes that took place and sometime in the late 17 th century, the book detailed a vampire called Luka who began experimenting with animal blood and integration within the human race. He had many successes, but did occasionally give in to human blood. He managed to get growing numbers of vampires to comply with him, and given the success of the vampire hunters and the vast reduction in the vampire population, many more were willing to try. I flicked forward again hoping that I would read no more about human death. It appeared that over the next 100 years vampires successfully evolved and fed on animal blood or that taken from hospitals or people dying from illness or poverty and reduced their consuming need to feed. As a result, some of their strength, speed, and hypnotic skills were reduced. Still, they decided this was preferable to being hunted and many found that they liked the lifestyle of a permanent settlement. They maintained some vampire qualities and they found they could lead successful lives in terms of wealth and women. Many possessed an ability to persuade people to agree to their requests through a milder hypnotic skill and so the transition continued. The vampires of the past had always been solitary characters and many travelled extensively throughout the world often when the human food source became reduced or a vampire hunter was on their trail. Luka and the vampires he enlisted found they liked the feeling of establishing relationships with humans and other vampires alike, although I discovered there were the odd renegade vampire that would still kill humans and threaten the new lifestyle Luka had been trying to set up. What happened to these renegade vampires was unclear as it simply said they were dealt with and I wondered if this was by vampires like Luka or vampire hunters and if there could still be vampires that craved fresh human blood. I discovered from reading the books that some of the myths had been passed down through generations by
