| Legendary vampire Lestat reinvents himself as a rock star in America. His music awakens Akasha, the queen of all vampires, whose power is so awesome that the immortal vampires have to stand up against her and her power if they want to survive. Lestat's music is so inspiring that Akasha makes him her king, just as Jesse is falling in love with Lestat (she's not a vampire, she just thinks he's a hottie, and he has a think for the dark side). There is a clash between the vampires and Akasha; she tells them to join her or perish; they refuse, and she tells Lestat to kill Jesse. He does, mostly. As Lestat continues to drink her blood, he doesn't stop when she tells him to, she gets weak, and the vampires attack and kill her, almost... but whomever drinks her last drop will die when she does. Maharet moves Lestat aside and drinks, but stops short of the fatal gulp, and turns her into a sleeping statue instead. Lestat slits his wrist and bleeds into Jesse's mouth, saving her (and turning her into a vampire). Jesse runs into her old boss a while later, they chat, and she offers to turn him into a vampire; he refuses, and walks her out. Marius (the vampire who converted Lestat into a vampire centuries ago) is waiting in the boss' office for the boss. |
