Tuvathu stood by a blackened window that was slightly broken watching the redeye flights depart from the local airport. He'd been in Los Angeles for a few months and he'd already fallen in love with the place. The scenery was blissful and the people...well the people were easy to say the least; He didn't have to put up much of a fight to get a decent meal in this city. He was trying to make his mark in the city of angels as the newest player to the local demon community. Tuvathu intended to let those who were bitter about his arrival that he was in charge and it best you be with him than against.
He'd just returned from hunting for another victim to publically kill to continue his celebration. She was a young Japanese girl, around 16 or 17 in age. He followed her home from a school basketball game and planned to make his move the following day. All of Tuvathu's previous victims had been a bit older, but he was now looking to garner even more attention than before with this young kill.
It'd been 2 weeks since his last kill, an unacceptable span of time. His last attempt at a meal was foiled by the slayer. While Tuvathu got the upper hand on the slayer, He still proved to be a formable opponent. He was full of spunk and energy, unlike the previous slayers he'd encounter in his days as a vampire.
"Hmmm" Tuvathu moaned as he heard the warehouse door open behind him. It was Hunter, his 2nd in command. He was known throughout the demon community simply as Triple H due to his full name's initials. He'd been out looking for a meal of his own as well as doing some surveying of the local competition. Tuvathu was planning on making a grand stand to let those who dare oppose him or considered a threat that he was in charge. What better way to send a deadly message out than to kill a vampire slayer Tuvathu though.
"What have you brought me Hunter?" Tuvathu asked in a low voice. Hunter was a loyal subject and excellent confidant. Tuvathu had no doubt that Hunter brought with him nothing disappointing. Tuvathu was the one who gave Hunter the gift of immortality back in the early 1900s. Hunter Hearst-Helmsley was a simple farmhand. He had a wife and 3 children. Hunter felt depressed and a lack of purpose in his predictable life. The day he met Tuvathu all of that changed. Tuvathu gave him purpose and treated him well. For this Hunter is forever in Tuvathu's debt.
"Some good news Sire." Hunter replied.
"Oh really? Do Tell."
"The locals are starting to support you Sire. They are impressed with your bold moves of public killings. Word is also going around of your first encounter with the slayer."
"Excellent. The problem with these punks Hunter is that they are too scared, too confined in false sense of security to unleash their full potential. Demons and vampires alike wish to live amongst the humans, to be "The world's best kept secret" In fear of our kind being hunted and killed by the humans. I envision a world where evil rules the world and the humans are our puppets & slaves."
Tuvathu turned around and walked slowly towards Hunter. He placed his hand in front of him to which Hunter kissed it slightly. Tuvathu closed his eyes and moaned.
"What about our progress of recruitment?" Tuvathu asked.
"You have a sea of loyals awaiting your instructions Sire. Just give the word."
"Soon my dear, soon." Tuvathu walked over to a stack of wooden boxes and sat atop of one. He grabbed his hair and used a rubber band to tie it into a ponytail.
"Sire what plans do you have for the slayer?" Hunter asked curiously. He walked over to Tuvathu and placed his hand on Tuvathu's shoulder.
"Oh I have much planned for the slayer. Do you remember the last 2 slayers I've killed Hunter?"
"Yes Sire. The girl in Romania in 1924 and a male in France in 1987. Those were wonderful kills."
"Indeed they were." Tuvathu agreed. He placed his hand atop of Hunter's. "I have similar plans for the slayer here."
Hunter frowned. "I'm a bit concerned about the larger male who seems to follow the slayer around. Who is he?" Hunter pondered.
"Their lovers Hunter." Tuvathu said softly.
"Are you sure? I never would have guessed."
"Hunter you are beautiful, yet dense." Tuvathu chuckled. He sat up and turned around to face his servant and smiled.
"You take care of the lover and I will deal with the slayer. By this time next week they will both be dead."
"Yes Sire, my Undertaker."
