  You try to bend the bars but sadly the rubber isn't quite resistant enough to the electricity. It still shocks you but it isn't enough to kill you, just stun you. Well now that that's over what else are you going to try?
  
  > Panic
  You start to panic and go insane inside the tiny claustrophobia inducing cell. You go mad with dehydration, hunger, and the thirst. eventually you go so crazy that you break through a solid stone wall of about 3 feet in thickness into a room with a fountain of blood, a fountain of water, and a table full of food. On a banner the word "Pass" is written. Looks like panicking actually helped in this situation. You immediately sate your thirst (for both blood and water) and calm your hunger with food afterwords. Then you curl up on the dusty floor and pass out.
  
  > ZzzzZzzzZzzzzzzZzzzZz...
  During your sleep you have a strange dream... almost like a vision. In the dream you are a powerful vampire and you have just slain a powerful enemy and all the vampires are cheering your name. You feel proud that you have finally gained the acceptance of your kind... but it's not enough. You have a strange empty feeling that immediately swallows up the pride... it is loneliness. You begin to feel depressed in the dream, you don't even know why or you can't figure it out one of the two.
  
  You wake up just as you feel that you have an answer. When you open your eyes you see that the little girl is standing over you once again. She is staring right into your eyes which you think is kinda weird and it's creeping you out but you don't get up for fear of another ass-kicking.
  
  "Get up."
  
  You decide to not get on her bad side so you do as asked. She then walks away and you follow her.
  
  She eventually leads you to a sort of throne room with a small stone column in the middle. You don't know what comes over you but you immediately head towards the column... and see that it is really a basin holding blood. Once again you don't know what possessed you to do this but you do it anyways. You cup some of the blood in the basin in your hand and drink.
  
  After about ten seconds of pure agonizing silence you start to feel something...
  
  > A surge of power
  The surge of power is unlike anything you have ever felt. You can feel it like an internal bonfire through all of your muscles and sinews. From your bones all the way to your skin your power seeps into every crack and crevice. After about a few seconds of this extraordinary feeling it leaves you and you collapse. You can hear voices in the distance though, cheering your name like you just killed the strongest enemy in the world... smiling to yourself, you think that killing the strongest thing in the world would technically be suicide. Although you collapsed you can feel the reservoir of endless strength that the blood granted you. You stand back up and face the basin of blood. Then you turn around and look at the crowd of vampires that has suddenly appeared behind you. You raise your fist in the air and it is met with the cheers of your allies. You feel so powerful that nothing can stop you at all.
  
  Many years later...
  
  A long time ago you proved yourself in the trials necessary to turn into a vampiric equivalent of a prince. The little girl, who you find out is named Hayley, is the equivalent of a princess but there is no bad blood between you two. Actually you two couldn't be better friends. Although many years have passed you constantly think about those 3 years that you spent looking for your sire. You wonder if you'll ever find her again but for now you are satisfied with being a prince. Who knows maybe you'll see Sarah again someday? Only time will tell...

  20 years later...
  
  20 Years have passed since you became a vampire prince and life has been good to your so far. You learned much in the short two decades of study and ruling as a prince. You learned that you were selected to be a prince because you have the "Insigne Rex" which you learned is latin for "Mark of the King" basically you were destined to be a vampire prince from the moment you were sired. And while on the subject of sires you did in fact see Sarah again. You went back to her apartment and found that her stuff was still in it. Looking through the books and papers of her home you learn surprising information.
  
  Sarah was in fact purposely turning guys that showed the makings of a good vampire to bolster the ranks of her family's troops. You see that the name of the family is Umbra... loosely translated it means "Shadow" and that Sarah is listed as a breeder for Umbra. Horrified at this you leave and run right into Sarah as she's bringing in yet another sucker (not a vampire but a guy like you once were). Many things pop into your head but it's when she kneels before you that you snap back to reality. You decide to leave and just go before you decide to do something rash.
  
  Centuries pass and you only grow in strength. You bring a new Golden Age of the Vampire by actually coming out of hiding and taking an offshore island as the homeland of vampires. After intense negotiations and maybe a war or two you seal the vampire's place in history and your people prosper for many, many years.
  
  Another few centuries pass and you are reaching the end of your life. You can feel it inside of you. When a vampire dies of old age they don't exactly die. They turn into stone and hibernate. They wake in times of great need and you know that it will happen to you. You feel the process begin and you head for your coffin in the bottom of the palace that thanks to you is now the capital of the Vampiric Legion. As you lie down and feel your skin turn to stone you wonder quietly who will succeed you and stuff like that... but you rest easy knowing that when the time is right your return shall bring the vampires into another Golden Age. You begin to feel very tired and you shut your eyes and never open them again.
