Vampire Hunters
So now you know how my brother and I became vampires. However, you still don't know why we hunt them down and kill demons. Actually, that story is quite simple. It was a brisk spring morning forty-nine years after the night our mother was killed by Jedadiah. We were now Roman soldiers and very high rankings ones at that. We were Centurions, we were over two different Centuria of course. However, we were in the same legion. I believe you do know the story of the crucifixion of the Messiah. How two Roman soldiers nailed Him to the cross and hoisted it up into the hole as his body jolted in pain. Yeah, those two soldiers were my brother and I.

Nothing Good Ever Lasts
It was dusk and one by one the boys arrived. Each one looked around before clambering up the old iron column to their private garden. Izzy had been the first one to climb up here onto the old high-line railbed. For three precious weeks, it had been all his. Here he was above the madness and the noise and the filth.

Vampire Hunters
Do you ever just wonder how you got into a situation and then realize it’s your brother's fault? Yeah, same here. Actually, now that I think about it; it doesn't happen that often. However, no matter what my brother gets us into, it will never be as bad as the day he almost got both of us killed. It happened over two thousand years ago. During a calm and cool midsummer night in July in a small village called Bethlehem. Which is about six miles south of Jerusalem. The Christian bible doesn’t get a lot wrong but one of the few things it does get wrong is the day Christ was born. The planets that align to form the star of Bethlehem wouldn’t be in the right position to rise the star for the wise men to follow in December to the manger. The right time would be the same night my brother Jake and I turned into the one thing we feared the most. It was the night we were turned into bloodsucking demons called Motetz Dam or as it is known in the English language, Vampires.

The Ballad of Fa Lan
In the 5th century A.D., the great country of China was in an uproar. The Great Wall had just been completed, but the country and it's people - particularly toward the North - were constantly under seige by their neighboring enemy, the Huns. It had become a common practice for the Huns to invade bordering villages in the night, slaughtering all in their path and stealing young maidens to take as brides. Many villages - with heavy hearts - created pacts with the Hun leaders to give their daughters over willingly, in an effort to spare the rest of their people from death and destruction. Lan's village was no exception.

Roman Soldier
He had a picture of Mercedes in his hand. She, a national symbol of the Ukrainian woman every young soldier wanted to marry and start a family with in the countryside. Yet she’d been taken away from the electro night clubs filled with house music and used to gain information on a Russian Mail Order bride site. Only the tale of her rescue spread across the frontline with soldiers facing each other, and the risk of coronavirus; the reason their mouths were covered with facemasks.

Amy
Montgomery Smith was ready to die. He even knew how he would want to go. He wasn’t sure when; he could have waited until Sunday evening. Yes, he could do it then, after a weekend of getting ready, though there was not much to get ready for. Dying can’t be that complicated, he would probably succeed on the first try. But what if he somehow talks himself out of it during the weekend? Then he would just go to work on Monday, listening to Hank all day long, Hank, who decided he was Montgomery Smith’s friend even though Montgomery Smith had never given any implication that the feeling would be mutual. At lunchtime, which Montgomery Smith used to spend alone, Hank would be there, following him outside the factory, to his favourite bench in the courtyard, just under the tall tree.
