Prologue
Date: January 1-3, 2021(unsure)
Continent: North America
Country: America
Region: Southeastern (Mississippi-Alabama)
It's was the year 2021, the world had gone crazy. The war between the Vampires and Humans was raging and beyond control. The humans were destined to lose. I think even they knew. They didn't stand a chance. The Vampires had gone power-crazy. There was no hope, anywhere.
I remember the night like it was yesterday. It was the middle of winter, the ground was frozen, and icy rain was falling from the sky, thick like slush. I was at my home in Falkner, Mississippi with my wife, Coraline, drinking heated pig's blood in front of the fire. My friends Mary and Collin had gone to bed early. (They were staying with us for ethical reasons. They, like us, believed what was happening in the world were wrong.)
Coraline and I were discussing "President" Eric Moore. She and I had both agreed he was the exact opposite of what America was founded for. He had stripped the humans of all civil rights recently, by ratifying the 17th Amendment, which stated that human beings were to be hunted and captured like cattle and sent to blood farms. She strongly believed in freedom and rights of all creatures. (She was older than even I. She'd been a tried as a witch during the Black Plague. She'd seen it all. She to me was the most beautiful and perfect woman in the world. I worshipped the ground she walked on. I was wrapped around her finger, and boy did she know it) *faint smile*
Anyway as I was saying... We were discussing (or rather I was listening to her rant about) how "President" Moore was a scum-filled dictator who should be left to fry in the sunlight for all eternity, castrated, and burned at the stake. (She would sometimes slip into the Dark Ages. It always fascinated me.) And how she wished she could fight back in some form or fashion.
Then she had looked at me alertly and said "Quiet... Do you hear that?” There was loud banging and crashing, suddenly the front door was blown to a million pieces, hanging from the hinges. Coraline was already up standing composed and ready to attack, like a brilliant goddess of battle. *starry eyes* (sorry I'm a bit of a romantic.)
Meanwhile, I was on the floor, ducking and yelling "What the hell was that!?!" (I'm a relatively new Vampire. Coraline changed me on my 20th birthday. I'm currently 92. I was still working on the rock hard composure thing.) "Calm yourself William; it's only Humans." I stood up cautiously and looked at them.
It was the biggest group of Humans I'd seen in years. I counted them quickly: 10 women, 11 men, 13 children. We all stared at each other for a moment. Coraline opened her mouth to speak, and a Human male raised a gun. I had him against the wall in seconds. No one was going to hurt Coraline. Endangered or not, I would've ripped every one of those Humans apart.
Luckily, that wasn't needed. A small male child stepped forward. I'll never forget his face. Angelic and dazzling beautiful. Hair of pale blond ash, skin tanned lightly by the sun, slight freckles on his cheeks. I continued to stare at him. Then his eyes met mine. Sharp and intense as liquid silver. I couldn't look away from them. I was trapped by the gaze of a mere child, as I had been when I met Coraline.
He looked away and began smelling the air. Suddenly, a woman with almost his exact features reached to grab him. "Issac!" Coraline had stopped her and given her that smile, that deep, empathetic, perfectly pure, and sincere Coraline smile. "It's okay. We are you're friends." The woman stood there for a moment looking at her, deep into her eyes searching. Then she she'd slowly nodded, quiet and determined.
"What's that smell?", the young boy had asked. "It smells like blood, but dirtier." Coraline walked to the glasses and picked one up. "It's pig's blood." She said handing him the cup. He took it and sniffed at it. "Will it hurt me?” he'd asked curiously. "No.", Coraline had answered. He lifted the glass to his lips quickly gulped it all down.
Suddenly his hair turned to a golden blond color. "Thank you!” said handing Coraline the cup as he ran back to his mother. He was smiling. He appeared much healthier. He looked at me again, I gasped. His eyes were a deep forest green.
"How?” I'd muttered to myself. "He's half-human, half-vampire.", the Human man I'd been holing against the wall had said, "He's my son. That dazzling creature is his mother. She’s a Vampire."
And that's where it all began. That's when the fight for peace all started. Soon Vampires and Humans were coming from all over to join. We were going to change the world.

We had soon taken over Mississippi. Our HQ was stationed in Falkner. We were an unstoppable force. The world was ours. Everything was going perfectly. Finally there were vampires willing to stand-up and fight for what was right, to put an end to all of this. We were growing in numbers daily. Humans flocked to us for salvation as well.
That’s when we started The Project. We called them Breakers. The half-Human/Vampire children we created to break the bonds of Human and Vampire society. It actually wasn't that hard. There were so many Inter-racial couples, so glad to know they could have children.
Now let me give you a Biology lesson. Vampires cannot mate and make children because both of their bodies are undead. They don't change or move forward, but when you put a Human and a Vampire together to form genuine, true love, no forcing, faking, or lying: You get a Breaker. (This being said, you cannot force Humans and Vampires to mate, nor trick either party into loving you. It has to be real love for the magic properties to work. This is why “President” couldn’t create an army of Breakers, in case you wonder later.) The love has to be honest, pure, and true.
That's when it happens. Male Vampire/Female human Breakers are very easy to accomplish. The only trouble is getting a male Vampire that is honest, loyal, and true. Female Vampire/Male Human are a bit trickier. The love has to be stronger; both parties have to want the child equally. The love must have a... a deeper bond. Less physical, more emotional and mental, which is ironic considering most of the magic involved with Vampire Breaker moms is more a physical change. But if you can find the people with The Bonds; you've got Breakers.
We ended up finding about 50 couples. The first time around was a bit wild, but we learned. The second was perfect, we created.
• First off, Breakers can change their physical attributes at will. To dumb it down, they can go from looking human, to looking like vicious killer vampires. (Talk about a temper tantrum.) Some things they can't control, however, for example: when they go without blood for too long, they look like vampires. Also, when they are children, they're looks change on their feelings.
• Second, they have Vampire and Human strengths, along with their weaknesses. They can go in sunlight without being affected, they don't need much sleep, they're incredibly strong and fast, they can have Dark Gifts, they have living bodies... to a point, they have living reproductive organs, they are stunningly beautiful and fit, they have hypnotic voices. But they also have many weaknesses. They're extremely emotional. EXTREMELY. When they hit puberty... *shudder* But this is also a benefit. They feel. They connect. (More about this in the next one.) Also, they depend on blood to supply their bodies with proper nutrients, but they can eat human foods for short periods of times. (Animal blood doesn't sustain them long. Human is the best. Vampire blood makes them sick, because of the impurity and death.)
• Third, this is a benefit and weakness, but it's such a... complicated and fascinating subject I had to give it its own dot. :) They form bonds. They aren't solitary creatures like Vampires. They travel in packs. It's hard to explain. It's like they're connected through this invisible tether. They need to be close to each other. It took us awhile to figure it out, years. The first group went through hell about it. They couldn't make us understand until they were older. The second group, however, we did differently. They were all conceived on the same night. They were all born on the same day. They were together from the moment of birth. Never apart. They know everything about each other. They're 16 now and still share the same room. *reminiscing smile* Anyway, the bond benefits them in combat. They know where each other are constantly. They feel when one of their bond mates is in trouble, or hurt, or angry, sad, happy, everything. They have this other worldly sense of awareness. Only a Breaker could really describe it. The first group's bond was weaker than the second. (Our fault.) The second group well... They are emotional. It does get in their way from being true warriors, but it makes them fight 10 xs harder, for each other. Take for example: Aza, Estelle, and Zachary (the 3 eldest of the 2nd group) were lost in the woods years ago. It was the middle of winter, they were 6, and it was snowing like crazy. They were lost for 3 days before we found them. When we did... It was a site like nothing I'd ever seen. They were fighting a bear. No weapons, just teeth and claws. Three 6 year olds. We stood back for a moment to watch them. They were doing pretty good, until Aza jumped for its throat and missed. The bear pounced on her. We moved in to stop instantly, but there was no need. Before we had even gotten close, Zachary and Estelle had ripped it apart. Zachary had its head; little Estelle had its body. We stood in amazement. They ran to Aza. (The bond did also suffer a tad from the 3 days they were apart. Zach, Aza, and Estelle have been closer since then. Making alliances in the bond. Please note: Dangerous.) That's what the bond does to them. They have this instinct to protect each other at all cost. They don't fear or feel when they get like that. They kill. You can imagine how they feel when the fall in love. *shudder* Romeo and Juliet ain't got nothing on them. So you understand the bond? It's their greatest weakness, but it's also their greatest strength.
There you have it. That's all we know of the Breakers.... Now, perhaps I should tell you the story of how it all came to an end?...
It was 18 years later from the start of Group 1. (Forgive me for any tear stains on the paper.) In fact, it was their birthday. They were celebrating Rebel style.*sigh and smile* I'd given them a mixture of whiskey and blood to let them cut loose for a night, be normal teenagers for a while. (Interesting fact, they can get drunk.) They were loud and partying, dancing, kissing. Being kids.
That's when it happened. "President" attacked. The full 9-yards, believe me. Tanks, bombs, guns, gas, you name it. We didn't stand a chance. We were vulnerable, unarmed, unaware, and unprepared. We did what we could. I hate that phrase. He took them. He took my children, my work, and... He took my love. Coraline... Oh sweet Coraline... She
