Asher hummed as he walked through the woods, his legs skipped a few steps, he was in a cherry mood. He had finally slept with three million women, a great accomplishment, although it had taken his entire lifespan—458 years to be exact. It was still a great achievement.
He had also done this without using compulsion, making his achievement even more significant.
Asher wasn't as cold hearted as others imagined, he had healed Vicki and let her rest back there. He had given Stefan his word that he would be on his best behaviour and also promised to not murder anyone, so there's that. He didn't like going back on his word.
Asher slowly emerged from the woods and looked at the massive rave. It was time to have some fun.
"..."
Asher walked up to a blonde haired dude and slapped his back, "What's up dude!"
The boy turned back, showcasing his blue eyes. "My name's Asher, I'm pretty sure you haven't heard of me. But there's a first time for everything, isn't there?"
The blonde young man nodded and extended his palm which Asher dabbed, "My name's Matt, welcome to Mystic Falls."
Asher smiled at his words, "Thanks, now where can I find something like that?" He pointed towards Matt's red cup which was filled with beer.
"Um, yeah you can find some near that bonfire. There's a keg beside that and you can fill some up." Matt pointed towards a bonfire to the right, as Asher's eyes lit up with excitement.
"Thanks, you're the best." He patted his shoulder and left to get some beer.
Meanwhile, Matt was thoroughly confused with the conversation. 'What a weird dude.' He muttered in his mind and went next to Elena and striked up a conversion with her.
Asher started hustling with a dark haired boy, at first he challenged him to finish three bottles of beer and bet ten bucks. Soon the money started ramping up to 20, 30 and 40.
After Asher let him win the round of finishing five bottles of beer, he drunkenly pointed towards the huge keg. "Why don't we see who finishes that huge keg of beer first."
The black haired boy looked at the giant can of beer and back at the drunk pitch black haired boy, his face contorted into a grin as he provocatively accepted his dare. "Sure, fifty right?"
Asher waved his hands, "Who plays with those pussy numbers, one fifty." He said as he threw a wad of cash down onto the ground.
The young man hesitated for a few moments causing the crowd to start booing him.
"Man up and accept!"
"Don't be a pussy Tyler!"
The crowd kept throwing taunts at him making him break, he threw down the hundred that he won from Asher and put down a fifty of his own.
"Good, you aren't as big of a pussy as I thought." Asher mocked, as Tyler shot him a dark glare. They walked towards their respective kegs, as Asher slightly stretched.
"Bring it on, wolf boy."
Asher said as he executed a perfect handstand and balanced on the keg, on the other hand Tyler needed the support of two other people to help him maintain balance.
"Ready! Start!" One of the children started arbiting.
Asher immediately gulped down on the tap, his mouth clenching around the nozzle as he sucked on it deeply. The liquid filled his mouth in the exact same speed as it drained into his stomach.
Asher looked at Tyler from the corner of his eye and saw him struggling to continue as he retched silently, the beer being too much for him. But his own ego didn't let him stop, with a slight smirk Asher used more speed, borderline superhuman.
As he chugged harder and harder, the air turned tense and the boys competed fiercely. But the victory was already decided as after a few minutes, Asher stopped drinking and fell to the ground.
He let out a loud burp and looked around, Tyler was still drinking while his own tap was completely empty. He walked towards the money and grabbed his share, the pseudo arbiter quickly announced the result.
"And the winner is, the new kid Casher!!"
Asher shot a stinky look at him, "It's Asher, you illiterate monkey." The ref cleared his throat and announced the result one more time but this time, got his name right.
Tyler fell down as he clutched his head, "You… you hustled me!" Asher grinned and walked towards him, "Yeah I did, you should've gotten suspicious after I let you win so easily for five rounds. Anyways, thanks for the money and I also need to thank your ego.
"Otherwise I wouldn't be able to hustle you this badly." Asher mocked him slightly, as his eyes greedily gazed at green paper, 'Ah, I'm set for almost a week with this. I'm almost close to fitting my baby with a W16, fuck V12 that shit sucks ass.
'I've saved close to four million, and with my investments coming in every month by the end of the year, I'll probably be able to make the rest of the seven million. After that, sweet riding.'
Asher had a genuine smile on his face, as he thought of this. That car had been with him through everything, knowing that an upgrade was coming to it provided him with a sense of pure joy.
But his happy mood was broken as a scream ran out in the forest, immediately he saw Elena and another boy carry out Vicki. Her neck was pierced by two sharp fangs as she continued to bleed out.
They placed her on the table as Tyler drunkenly screamed at people to give some space. Their faces held a hint of fear and panic as they rushed to call an ambulance.
Stefan stared at Vicki's body for a few moments before his veins protruded from his face, he turned towards Asher and sped towards him, his hands tried to grasp his neck but he failed miserably.
His hands tried to reach Asher's neck but his hands turned slow as his hands grew slower and slower. "Relax Steffy, that wasn't me." Asher tried to assure Stefan as he waved his hands and tried to calm him down.
"What is this?!" He asked furiously as his eyes grew bloodshot. Asher sighed deeply, "This isn't the place for this." He said as he held onto Stefan's jacket and pulled him along.
Almost immediately their figures turned blurry as they moved through Mystic Falls at Hypersonic speed, and in an instant they reached Stefan's room.
Asher threw Stefan across the floor and leaned against his desk, "That attack wasn't me, I gave you my word that I would be on my best behaviour, and I never break my word. There's another chomper in town."
Asher smiled softly, "Do you think this is funny?!" Stefan shouted across the room, Asher shook his head and laughed out loud, "No I think it's hilarious. Three vampires walk into a town…"
Asher gestured at Stefan to continue but seeing as he wasn't biting, he shook his head in disappointment. "You aren't fun, you know."
Their conversation was interrupted by a raven cawing, he sat on one of the taller wooden boards and watched them from down below.
Asher saw a shadowy figure appear on the terrace, he wore a black leather jacket with black jeans, and a black shirt. He had grey eyes and jet-black hair.
'Why is this family so obsessed with leather jackets.' Asher thought in his mind. Stefan closed his eyes and whispered out loud, "Damon."
Damon grinned slightly and looked at the both of them, "Hello, Brother."
"...."
Damon walked around the room and looked at Stefan's books, "Heya Jack, funny seeing you here. Did you come here for the highschool romance?"
Asher chuckled and looked at him, "Nope, it was just boring so I decided to have some fun. The name's Asher by the way, I just used that because it was cool, that wasn't my real name." Damon nodded as he flipped over one of Stefan's books.
Stefan placed his hands in his pocket and glared at Damon, "Crows a bit much, don't you think?" Asher nodded and agreed, "On God, the raven is very edgy and certainly chunibyo."
Damon stared at him and tried to process his words before he shrugged and looked at Stefan, "That's just the surface, wait till you see what I can do with the fog."
"Those bodies were your doing, right moose?" Damon looked at him and smirked, "I wanted to have some fun while I waited for your first day of school."
He looked at Stefan intently and mockingly praised his hair. "It's been fifteen years Damon!" Stefan glared with a mix of hatred and relief.
"Thank God, I couldn't take another day of the 90's. The suits and the whole thing, I looked like I had a stick up my ass." Asher said with disdain.
Damon nodded as he circled the both of them, "True that, remember Stefan, it's important to stay away from fads."
Stefan looked at him coldly and asked in a gruff voice, "Why are you here now Damon?!"
Damon twirled his finger in the air and looked at him with a bit of pity, "I could ask you the same question, but I'm fairly certain it could be summed up into one little word—Elena.
"She's a dead ringer for Katherine, I understand why you moved back."
Asher stopped paying attention in the middle and kept taking out dirt from his nails, apparently having sex in the forest would be tedious work.
Suddenly Damon lept towards the both of them, as Asher looked at him with a hint of pity, 'It's so slow, pitifully slow, I should turn off Infinity, let him have his moment.'
Asher thought as Damon grabbed the both of them and pushed them out of the terrace, Stefan landed on the cold hard ground with a huge thump as Asher and Damon leaned against a hedge.
'I should probably teach him a lesson now. He should've kept me out of the fight.' Asher walked towards Damon and clenched his hands as it grew red.
"Omni Serpentica!" Asher exclaimed as he tightened his hand, instantly Damon's knees buckled as he clutched his chest.
Blood spewed from his mouth like a never ending river, minutes passed as Damon kept vomiting blood. His body turned black as he slowly started desiccating.
"You young vampires, so arrogant. How dare you come and challenge me. I'm older than you, show a little respect."
Asher said delicately as he unclenched his hands, causing Damon's skin to return color as he violently coughed. "Wh..what are you?" He struggled to talk as he squirmed on the ground.
"I'm a hybrid, a mix between a vampire and a witch. You can call me a Heretic, The Heretic, I'm the first of my kind after all."
