Here is the third and final part of my story. You may recall that I was contemplating how to get around the problem before me - the problem of two of my closest friends wanting to become vampires and a law stating that me and my family could only turn one of them.

Here is the third and final part of my story. You may recall that I was contemplating how to get around the problem before me - the problem of two of my closest friends wanting to become vampires and a law stating that me and my family could only turn one of them. Firstly there was Anastasia, the former fiancée of my youngest brother who had tragically been killed by a satellite on their wedding day. She wanted to be a vampire just long enough to work on a way to bring Nicholas back. She was practically family already (just not in the eyes of the law) - how could I say no? Then secondly there was Samuel, the only alien born guy in all of Pleasantview who was looking for someone like him and thought that being a vampire was the best solution. He could wait without aging until someone else with skin as green as his own appeared. Since it seemed I was the only single female vampire in the town I knew just where he was coming from and I was sympathetic to his problem. But which do I choose? Anastasia was still too distraught over her wedding to talk to about the problem I faced but in the end I decided to see Samuel and see if he had any advice...some that wouldn't land me in jail. It turned out he had already made my decision for me... He had seen Anastasia earlier that same day and had seen what a state she was in. She had told him all about her wish to be a vampire and he too had read the reports in the papers about the new law. "You mean you'd give up your own ambitions to be a vampire to help Anastasia?" I asked when I realised what it was he was saying. "I've already told her to visit you right away to turn her," Samuel replied. "She seemed relieved and happy at that news." Sure enough, no sooner had he said the words than Anastasia and her twin sister Antoinette appeared on the street, heading towards the house. Antoinette delivered Anastasia into the family's hands and I promised her we'd take good care of her. Their parents couldn't bear to think of their daughter as one of the undead and refused to come, as did their older brother. Antoinette promised that she'd try and talk them round in time. Meanwhile Anastasia was waiting and I wasted no time in turning her into a vampire. She was delighted and it was a great weight off of my mind that the decision had finally been made. I only hoped that it was the right one. Anastasia soon took to life as a vampire. A photo from her first date with Nicholas was placed so as to be the first thing she saw each night when she rose...a reminder of her goal. If only she had asked us about certain things we could have seen what was coming... The secret she'd been keeping from us became very obvious a few days later. Anastasia hadn't realised that although she herself would not age as a vampire, the baby she was carrying would. She would still give birth when she was due to...being a vampire wouldn't keep it from happening until she had Nicholas returned to her. Unfortunately the goal of bringing Nicholas back was as far away as ever. Or so it seemed. Then came the headline news about local business tycoon Eric Peterson. He'd been abducted by aliens late one night, in a similar manner to how Samuel's father had been taken. And just like Samuel's father, he had later given birth to a baby boy. Another alien in Pleasantview was big news for Samuel and he had gone round to see the father right away. He'd spotted the resemblance between the baby and himself almost immediately - and it wasn't just the green skin and the eyes. He ran test after test on their DNA and eventually came to the conclusion that the young baby was his half brother. Not only that, the baby was very sick and it was only with his own medical expertise that the little boy survived. Eric was grateful beyond words and promised if there was anything he could do then Samuel only had to ask. Selfless once again he had asked whether Anastasia could borrow Eric's wife's paranormal career reward. The answer was yes. Samuel called me and I broke the news to Anastasia who smiled for the first time in days. She then made sure she wasted no time in making that all important phone call. It cost all of her savings but we all knew it was money well spent when Nicholas reappeared. We were all delighted to have him back with us...though we did make sure he got inside quickly in case any more stray satellites were heading his way. Her fiancé back, Anastasia took the potion to cure her vampirism, her life finally getting back on track once more. Of course there were a few shocks for Nicholas, not least of which that he was due to become a father any day. The next day I set off for work whilst Nicholas and Anastasia got the garden ready for their second wedding which was going to take place that night, hopefully before she gave birth. Alexander came over for the wedding, this time with firm instructions from the bride and the rest of the family to keep his younger brother from getting himself killed again before he made it to the alter. Thankfully he did make it to the alter, for a short ceremony to save on the bride's back which was starting to ache. She was sure it was a sign the baby was due any moment. Thankfully the baby held off long enough for the parents to be married. The next morning saw the arrival of Arianna, my second neice. Nicholas and Anastasia agreed to stay at our place for a while in order to raise their daughter so my parents were happy and we got to see more of the baby than we had of Alexander's daughter. Life was good. Samuel had a family of his own in the form of a younger brother and gave up all thoughts of being a vampire. After all he couldn't spend as much time with the youngster if he had to sleep all day. He'd also decided to look closer to home for romance. I decided to take a break from being one of the undead myself in order to both help out the newly weds and get out a little more. I even managed to find time for a few dates in between dirty diapers and my long working hours. Of course father doesn't approve and I have been "doing a Nicholas" and stocking up on the cure for vampirism for those times when I get bitten.

Have I found true love? No.

Have I stopped looking? Of course not.

Will I ever find it? Who knows...

But I'm not going to worry about it and stick to the following mottos from now on. Sing like there's no one listening. Love like you've never been hurt. Dance like there's nobody watching. Live like it's Heaven on Earth. The End.

I hope you liked the story. Of course I can't take credit for the mottos at the end. Sorry it was a little short and rather an abrupt ending. I reinstalled my game this week and although I manually saved the pictures in order to post this part of the story the vampire clan is no more. Though I am sure there will be vampires back in my game before long and maybe another story on the horizon.

    Considering your technical difficulties the result was amazing, I was intrigued of who would you turn into a vampire and I was pitying the loser but you made it in such a way that there was really no loser. Congratulations on making a great ending.
