Please see end for notes :)

"What am I supposed to do? We can't force him to take the place of king. He's barely 18. How is that fair?" Chris asked Romeo from the living room in the cabin and Romeo rolled his eyes, ignoring Ryan, Dylan and Pete around them.

"He doesn't have a choice. He is the one that needs to take over the kingdom. He doesn't have any choice." Romeo said.

"Well he should. What would uncle Leonard say if he found out that you were forcing him into this? He would be pissed off. You know what he always said. 'The position needs to be wanted to be able to be done well.' If Freddie doesn't want it then it could ruin the entire kingdom and not only that but also his life. He has one of those you know, so do I and everyone else in this room." Chris said.

"His life belonged to the kingdom the moment he started showing signs of being the king. He needs to do this. It's what is right and what is tradition and we can't stray from tradition." Romeo said and Chris's eyes went red and anger filled him up.

"Screw tradition. That went out the window when you practically disowned me and took Bianca in as your own child. She shows signs of being a psychopath you know. The control issues and how when she gets angry she grabs people by the throat? That's what Nolan did in his last days alive and he had no control over his power at all." Chris said.

"Nolan was a murderer and a pathetic swine. I didn't disown you; you chose to leave with him. You ruined the name of our family. You have no idea the shame you put us through." Romeo said.

"More like you through. Leonard didn't give two damns about that. He still called me once a month to make sure I was still alive and healthy. He would have been a much better father than you." Chris snarled and Romeo glared at him, flashing his red eyes at him.

"Guys, cut it out. Growling and snarling at each other isn't going to change a single thing. We need to work this out and figure out what the best options for this are." Pete said.

"Telling Freddie that he has no choice will only backfire on you. Sam told me that he hates being put in corners and forcing him into something will make him angry. He may not have any choice but you need to tell him that delicately." Dylan said.

"So make it seem like he does have an option, convincing him in some way to take the role on without being forceful." Pete added.

"Exactly." Dylan said.

"We don't have time for that. He needs to take on the role now or the kingdom will start to fall apart. We need a proper king and he is it." Romeo said.

"Well it's the only way that will work so stop being such a control freak and use another method other than brute force for once. That doesn't always work Romeo." Chris sneered and Romeo glared at him as Ryan went over and pulled Chris back.

"Okay. You need to calm down because you are making me angry and we all know that bad things happen when I get angry." Ryan said.

"Very bad things." Dylan said and Ryan threw an annoyed look at him before looking back to Chris.

"Deep breath and relax." Ryan said calmly and Chris breathed in deep as he nodded, breathing out and then turning back to the others.

"Okay. This is what we need to do."

In town walking back to Bushwell Plaza, Carly was walking home from the Groovy Smoothie and she was passing an alleyway to the fire escape of the building before hers when an older man with short grey hair and alcohol breath stumbled out and bumped her, making her jump and scream slightly.

"I'm so sorry miss. Why, you are a pretty young thing aren't you?" He asked with a creepy smile, looking her up and down, and Carly shifted uncomfortably, pulling her coat tighter around herself and going to leave only to have her arm grabbed.

"Let me go." She said, her voice shaking in panic, and the man stepped right up close so she could feel his breath on her neck.

"Where are your manners miss? I just complimented you. You should be thankful." He said darkly and Carly whimpered.

"Please. Let me go. I want to go home." She said and the guy smiled creepily again.

"You won't want to when I'm done with you." He said before tugging her arm harshly towards the alley and making her gasp, the words taking a moment to sink in before Carly screamed as loud as she could only to have a hand clamped to her mouth and her body dragged deeper into the alley.

"That wasn't very nice now was it?" The man growled as he shoved her against the wall and Carly tried to push him away, tears filling her eyes.

"Let me go." She screamed but the guy just held her there with all of his force.

"Let's see what's under this coat." The man snarled and Carly sobbed once. Before he could even touch her though, in a quick movement, the man was ripped away from Carly and Carly was pulled away as she screamed into Spencer's arms.

"Spencer?" Carly asked and Spencer nodded, going to speak when a loud snarl filled the air and they turned their attention to Freddie who was standing over the man with his back to them.

"What are you going to do to me? You're just a kid." The man laughed and Freddie let his red eyes show and the man's smile fall.

"I'm going to make you regret ever touching my friend." Freddie growled, his fangs extending as he swiftly knelt down and sunk his teeth into the man's neck.

Instead of drinking his blood however, Freddie tore the man's neck open and then, standing up slightly to get more room, Freddie pulled his right arm back only to punch down into the man's chest. Only it went right through, Carly and Spencer only being able to watch in pure horror.

"No one gets away with touching my family." Freddie whispered to the now dead man before he ripped his arm out of his chest and brought his heart out with it.

"Did you – I just – I think I'm gonna be sick." Carly said before turning and spewing all over the ground by the dumpster, Spencer simply staring at Freddie as he dropped the heart and took deep, calming breaths.

"I guess it's time to explain." He said before turning around and making Carly scream at his blood covered face and glowing red eyes.

"So Carly may never speak to him again but she was pretty glad that he did that for her. She was just freaked out about the heart being ripped out and also that her sense of reality was torn apart." Dylan told Ryan, Chris, Jasper, Pete, Cassie and Michael in the cabin a few hours later and Cassie sighed.

"This is getting out of hand. More and more people are finding out about vampires and how will a heart being ripped right out of somebodies chest be explained to anyone?" Cassie asked.

"Something will be figured out. Right now we have a more pressing matter like telling Freddie that he has no choice but to take on the role as king." Pete said.

"Oh. You didn't hear? Freddie's father left Freddie a bunch of letters explaining everything. Freddie is planning to ask Romeo to take him to the kingdom tomorrow." Jasper said and the others all looked at him.

"When did you find that out?" Cassie asked.

"The other night. Freddie took John, Kyle and I to his Leonard's old apartment. Showed us all of these documents and things about how Leonard told him that when the time came Freddie needed to step up and be king and that he needed to know that he didn't have much of a choice. Leonard said that Freddie should still be able to live a normal life as well if he wanted but he would have to remember that he had to focus on his duties and not forget about the people that will look up to him." Jasper said.

"Why didn't Freddie tell us anything?" Cassie asked.

"Because he knew that you would probably try and get him to change his mind. He said that he knows what you're like and that he doesn't want anyone to try and interfere with his decision." Jasper said.

"So he really wants to be king? He does know that it's a hard job. He has to think about everyone in the kingdom, and I mean the entire kingdom. He'll hear and see things from others that no one should ever have to see our hear and he will have to rule thousands of people and make sure they stay in line and don't expose vampires and that they aren't breaking laws and not only that but he'll have to deal with my father on a regular basis." Chris said.

"He would know that. He would know about the price he would end up paying when he takes on the role." Pete said.

"His father left him some stuff to help him, say, guide him for his first few years. Something that will make his job run a bit smoother while he's still learning and figuring out the ropes." Jasper said.

"What, like a list of some kind?" Dylan asked.

"Something like that." Jasper replied and Michael gave him a look but said nothing.

"All we can do now is wait." Pete said and everyone all fell silent at the weight that those words held.

It was two days later when Freddie finally had the courage to go to the cabin and when he got there, Pete, Cassie, Danny, Millie, Gabe, Dylan, Ryan, Chris, Jasper, John, Kyle, Jessica, Amber, Chelsea, Michael and Sam were waiting with Romeo, Chris and Romeo standing as far apart as the room would allow them to.

"This is a big turn out." Freddie said and Sam nodded.

"We all know why you came here so we wanted to show moral support. Or at least your friends did. The ass in the corner doesn't really care about love and support." Sam said.

"I'd watch your mouth." Romeo snipped.

"And I'd watch yours or I'll rip your heart out too." Freddie snapped and Romeo went quiet, Chris grinning wildly as some of the others giggled.

"So, you've decided that you will be king." Romeo said after a minute and Freddie nodded.

"I have. But if I really am to take on this role then I will make a few changes that will suit not only me but the others around us. After all, the people should have a right to do things as well." Freddie said and Romeo stood straighter, his facial features hardening.

"And what are these changes?" Romeo asked.

"First of all, I want to still be able to live a somewhat normal human life like go to college and get a degree. I will stay close by but that is my first change. The second is that the people in the kingdom, if they agree to certain rules and expectations written up, will be allowed to mix in with the human world and go to school and get jobs. However, if they break any rule that is put forth then they are to stay in the kingdom until they can be trusted to go back out." Freddie said and Romeo nodded stiffly.

"Anything else?" He asked through his teeth and, after looking to Kyle with a small nod, Freddie smiled and then allowed his power to turn on, the tattoo glowing silver through his shirt and an intricate pattern appearing down his arms to his hands.

"I get to choose who is my head in command. And you certainly are not it."

Going outside sometime after Romeo had left and a small party had been put on, Danny, Chelsea, Michael and Cassie were standing near the trees and the four were discussing Chelsea and Michael's baby.

"I can't believe you got married to the guy who saved my life's fiancé's brother. Like what are the chances of that?" Danny asked and Chelsea shrugged.

"One in a million. Honestly though, I had no idea that when I met him that he would lead me back to you. I did try and keep tabs on you for a while but then one day you just disappeared and I couldn't find you anywhere. And then I found out from Michael that he found you again and I knew what had happened so I made a plan to just show up. Good thing for Freddie going mental at the museum." Chelsea said and Cassie smiled while putting an arm around Danny's shoulders.

"Well, I'm glad that he found you again. At least now he doesn't have to wonder forever what happened to you." She said and Chelsea nodded as Danny's phone went off.

"Why is Andy calling you? And why do you even have his number?" Cassie asked when she saw who it was and Danny gave her a look as he answered.

"What's up?" He asked, frowning when he heard Andy breathing loudly.

"I didn't know who else to call but I figured since your father was involved it should be you first." Andy said and Danny pulled away from Cassie.

"What do you mean my father was involved?" He asked and the other three listened in.

"I ran into him and he was super mad. We got into an argument about him accusing me of knowing where you were when something really weird happened and this thing just jumped out of the shadows and attacked us. I managed to get away but I don't know about your father. I turned back to go and help but by the time I got back to where it happened all that was there was his blood." Andy replied and Danny looked to Chelsea who just shrugged, a worried and confused look on her face.

"Okay. Tell the police and tell them exactly what you saw. Tell them that you don't know where I am but that you thought you saw a glimpse of me walking past your house a few days ago. Don't go looking for him." Danny said before hanging up.

"What happened?" Michael asked.

"I think a vampire just took my dad." Danny replied and Chelsea, Cassie and Michael looked at each other as Danny looked down to his phone.

Later that night, after the party had died down and everyone had gone home, Chris and Ryan arrived at Chris's place and had just walked into the living room laughing only to freeze dead at the sight of Bianca standing over none other than Danny's now dead father, her dress and face covered in blood and her eyes glowing dark red.

"What the hell?" Chris yelled in shock and Bianca looked down to Wyatt's body and back up at Chris.

"I couldn't help myself. He looked so good and I was so hungry." Bianca said and Chris and Ryan stared at her in horror.
