The World is Different at Night

Summary:

Centuries of war raged across the planet in a never ending battle between the creatures of the night and humanity. Vampires, gargoyles, mages, witches, and werewolves; horror stories used to make children behave, raided the country sides, tore through towns, destroyed and devoured everything that got in their way. Hundreds of years of bloodshed and chaos lead to an uprising. Humans banded together, joined by wolves, bats, and misfits alike that had grown tired of the senseless violence. They called their force Overwatch.

Notes:

Another idea that popped into my head while I was at work. No idea where this one is gonna go, but this one will have multiple chapters!

Reviews and kudos would be greatly appreciated.~

(Also, if I screw up any translations, I apologize. Google Translate is still my best friend.)

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Chapter 1: Prolouge

Chapter Text

Centuries of war raged across the planet in a never ending battle between the creatures of the night and humanity. Vampires, gargoyles, mages, witches, and werewolves; horror stories used to make children behave, raided the country sides, tore through towns, destroyed and devoured everything that got in their way. Hundreds of years of bloodshed and chaos finally lead to an uprising. Humans banded together, joined by wolves, bats, and misfits alike that had grown tired of the senseless violence. They called their force Overwatch.

 

Lead by the Lacroix clan, the team of hunters pushed back against the forces of darkness that had named themselves Talon. Both forces spread across the globe as their fight escalated, until Overwatch prevailed. The war still rages on though, in the suffocating silence of the night. Overwatch still stands strong against their hidden enemies, even now at the dawn of a new age...

 

History has all but forgotten their name and their story. The Lacroix name is now recognized for their wine instead of hunting beasts. Overwatch and Talon were brushed off as a retelling of an old story concerning a boy named Arthur who became a king. Werewolves and their likeness are still stories, used now to entertain rather than to scare.

 

If only the population knew how different the world was when the sun went down...
