It won't be the best story around, but I'm trying.

Chapter 1

The year is 1887, from the scraps from my journal that was able to be saved from the second world war.
In a small blooming town which at first was a village for many, many years, in the center of the country of Romania. It was the darkest night that they had ever seen, ever, with the rain pouring down from the spring weather, it added the creepiness of the scenerio.
The next day, the rain clouds hung over the town like it was a bad omen, and the town was alive with people and chatter. Walking down the walkway, was a young madden of 20 years, walking in a dull colored dress, wearing hat that covered all of the top of her head and shield her eyes from the sun. As she walked down the road, she carried a basket full of meat and vegetables.
"HEY JANE!" came a voice from down the walkway.
The young madden turned to see who was shouting, and saw her friends running towards her while they held there blouses up so that they don't trip over it.
"Jane did you hear, did you hear?" asked one of the girls. "What's all the excitment about?" replied Jane. "It's the party of the year over at Sheymon's mansion tonight, everyone will be there, aren't you going?" asked the same girl.
(Sheymon was the richest family in town after the greatgrandfather was said to have slain all the vampires of Europe)
Jane smiled, "ofcourse i'll be there"
"great, we'll see you there at 7 tonight." Her friends smiled and waved goodbye and walked off to do there own thing.
The night fell quickly, and the towns people were walking to the mansion, inside was a festivel of laughter and joy. Down on the floor people were dancing and making out as the party got bigger and bigger. To the side, Jane sat there, wearing an eligant dark blue dress that puffed at the sleeves and was held up from her chest and flowed down to the ground, and her hair was a light colored brown, fancy up in a bun on the back of her head. From behind a man walked up and bent down slightly, "Excuse me ma'am, may I have this dance?"
She turned around to look, and saw a tall man, with slicked back black hair, wearing a nice tuxedo and he was wearing a masked which covered most of his face. Jane smiled and put her hand on his, "I would be glad to."
She got up and the two went to to center of the floor and started to dance.
As the music slowed down everyone began to waltz around the dance floor.
"So, what be your name stranger?" asked Jane.
"heh, my name be, James, James Zechemin." He replied.
"Isn't that an english name, mister Zechemin?"
"Ah, you found me out, miss Jane Helshier." he said. Jane then looked at him in suprise, and he just looked into her eyes and smiled. "h....how did you know my name?" she questioned in fear. "Your friends could be heard all over town when they stopped you and told you about this party, didn't mean to ease drop, and I found the rest of your name in the town ledger." he answered with a chuckle.
She looked back into his eyes, "Are you some kind of stalker?"
"NOpe, I just find you to be a very appealing person, that's all." James answered.
The doors then flew open, but no win blew through the room and a crow flew right in and perched up towards the ceiling, and looked down onto the crowd. James looked up and his face turned pail, he then grabbed Jane's hand and ran out of the mansion. Jane tried to keep up, but kept tripping over her feet. He then turned towards and alley and kneeled down bringing her down with him. Jane looked at him with fright, "what was that all about?!" James the put his hand over her mouth and removed his mask, revealing his ocean blue eyes, "try to keep your voice down, we are being attacked by vampires."
He took his hand off her mouth and reached into his jacket and pulled out a 6-shooter revolver with JZ initialed on the side. "I really like you, would you like to meet me at the resturant in the center of town tomorrow at dusk?" he asked her with a smile. She looked back at him with a smile, "I would love to."
"Great, see you tomorrow at dusk, now, run home and don't answer the door for anyone, ok?"
She knods and runs home.
