Change has come.

2015 is a year full of cute cat videos on the internet, meme gamers, social network sites, hundreds of brands, computer hackers, middle east wars and the like. So many distractions in life and it's always changing, always moving forward into the future. Striving to improve itself and change lives for the better. One thing through the centuries has always been in a state of stillness however. Racial attitudes. Apartheid in South Africa, the slave trade, the Jim Crow laws and the holocaust in Germany. The Human race have moved past these acts of discrimination and become a more accepting, more understanding community in the majority of places in the world. Racial attitudes are and forever will be changing. It may be a world full of distractions. It's also a world full of culture. Immigration is at an all-time high, immigrants coming over from war-torn countries to something new, something better. Polish plumbers, Hungarian builders, Russian mob, Iranian cleaners. The color of there skin may be different. Their culture may be different. Their language may be different. There species is the same. The human race.

It all changed quickly. In a world full of internet leaks, CCTV, government agencies, drones and so on it's no surprise something ancient lurking under the surface of the human race was quickly discovered in a world full of surveillance. Through the centuries there wasn't just humans. There was something more to that. Something darker, something more dangerous. Stories passed onto newer generations became legends. Legends passed onto newer generations became myths. Myths passed onto newer generations became mythical books and movies such as Twilight, The Vampire Diaries and Underworld. Nobody thought something so trivial could be so real. We were all surprised. It was small things at first. A store in Texas, dark alleyway cameras caught a male "kissing" a girls neck. When he turned and walked away she lay there slumped on the floor. Police were called and found her body drained of blood. In Brazil, eye witnesses saw a male transform into a huge seven foot mammal. They clapped and applauded, impressed with his magic. They soon stopped when it ripped off there heads and got caught on a shoddy phone camera. It made it's way online and people doubted it, thinking it was great CGI. The government took notice before anyone else did. The crime rate upped and upped and more horrific crimes came out. They looked in there unsolved murder records and counted up the rack of death from blood being drained, people being mauled. The wounds on people unsurprisingly didn't match that of a Canadian moose. Change was coming.

It was small at first. Government agencies opening up secret task forces to hunt down and deal with any potential threats. Knowledge built and built until the American Government finally understood the threat. They understood that all these stories over the years weren't stories but something more. Something else entirely. What do the government do when they find out something so historical and something dangerous to the public? Keep it secret. Area 51 for example. However, a small corporation in New Orleans noticed the change and inconsistencies in policing. The Bludcorp Group. It approached the government and confronted them about the issue, threatening to release details to the public about the threat. The government were in a tricky position. They listened to the stories this group told them. The charismatic founder Nicholai Blud, a descendant from a lineage of Slav hunters told them of the threat. Through the centuries families of vampires and tribes of lycanthropes -- not werewolves as there more commonly known lived among us. They've always been a threat and that a small amount of humans knew about them, hunting them. They enlightened the government about the magical prowess of these beings and the dangers they are to the human race. With government funding, Nicholai Blud pondered over the thought of a joint operation in taking down the threat. More manpower, dangerous weaponry and so on. In 1998, the partnership of the US Government and The Bludcorp Group formed.

Fast forward fourteen years to 2012. Wikileaks got hold of files from an anonymous source in relation to the secret partnership between The Bludcorp Group and the American Government regarding a threat. People took notice and began to question this partnership and what the threat is. By now The Bludcorp Group was a billion-dollar corporation which had subsidiaries in the private security industry, weapon manufacturing from nuclear to projectiles, technology such as phones and computers available to the public and even architecture. What was a corporation like this dealing with an American threat? Cue more hackers and files being leaked. The government had to get ahead of the situation before it spiraled out of control. A cover story was the preferred choice. The Bludcorp Group were setting up defense systems on government programs, supplying weaponry to the american armed forces and other similar activities. This wasn't enough to convince one vampire by the name of Wesley Fawkes. His family were already hunted down by Bludcorp and he was the only one left and didn't have anything to lose. The government brought pain and anguish onto his family who always kept quiet and didn't cause harm to the human race. He wanted revenge. He set up his plans and waited patiently in time for the Presidential elections.

It was the sixth of November, the day of the presidential election. Barack Obama and Mitt Romney were running for President of the United States. The votes were turning Obama's way. TVs were trained and focusing on him. It was a tough campaign and it all seemed to be paying off. Yet within five minutes everything what could possibly go wrong did. Wesley Fawkes going at twenty miles per hour rushed into the hall Obama was in and grabbed him by the throat, coming to a halt. He smiled towards the cameras before sinking his teeth into the neck of his helpless victim. The Secret Service withdrew there weapons and began firing away but it was too late. Obama's neck was ripped open. Fawkes put up a fight but suddenly came to a halt after bullets shredded apart his heart. The secret was out and it would most likely go down as America's gravest day. The world watched shell shocked by the occurrences which happened. The President was dead. Vampires were outed. The world stood still yet the clock kept ticking away.

Fast forward three years to 2015. The world has significantly changed. Mitt Romney is President of the United States after the gruesome demise of Barack Obama. Emergency powers were given to Romney in which he erected a statute of segregation laws regarding the livelihood of vampires and lycanthropes. Mitt Romney using the information filed up by the secret agencies came to the conclusion it was safer to let them live with us as they had done for generations rather than start a war he knew America or even the world wasn't ready for. They live among us identified by a government register. It is against the law to not state your presence in America. Blood banks are now open for the vampire populace. The courts have changed. Laws have changed. Policing has changed. Crime in general has changed. Even cities changed. Using Bludcorp Group resources, over the two years they built an extension on New Orleans and other states for approved areas where these two new species could live alongside the human population. Racial attitudes are back. Segregation is back.

America is your home now and it's always changing. For the better? That's up to you.
