Now before you kill me, I would like to say that I have waited untill summer to start on the sequel because I didn't have enough time and plus I was thinking of how to end it. Not to mention that I didn't have internet for months because of money issues. Like I said before, this is the final sequel. So if you don't like the ending, don't ask to continue it because I won't do it. I want to move on from this section of Fanfiction.
Disclaimer: I do not own The Little Vampire. Antoinette and her family are the only ones I own.
Gregory found himself in a cottage. It was a nice one that was furnished with wooden furniture. No weird technology was in sight and that somehow soothed his confusion in him. He felt like he was in a dream. One that he would love to dwell in for eternity. It reminded him of his sweet home where he grew up in Germany. Soft footsteps told him that he was not alone in this sanctuary. Headwhipping in the direction the sound was coming from, it was the girl that haunted his dreams!
This time the girl was dressed in a fashion that was popular with the female gender back in his human life. The girl approached him and now he could clearly see her face.
" You! " Gregory hissed, earning a smile from the girl. "What are you doing here in my dream, Antoinette? "
Antoinette laughed sweetly. "This is not a dream. It is The Land of Oblivion." She said, moving around till she sat down in a leather chair.
" The Land Of Oblivion...?" Gregory repeated. He had never heard of it. All this was starting to make him uncomfortable.
Antoinette nodded. " Yup. It's where all vampires go when they bite a fellow vampire and vice versa at the same time. They both slip into a different dimension called The Land Of Oblivion. Time passes so slow here that when you return to Earth, time has not passed. "
It took several minutes for Gregory to take in all the information. " How do you know this? Have you been here before?" he asked, observing her intently.
" Nope."
The Sackville-Baggs vampire cocked his head to a side in confusion. " Then how do you know all that? "
Turning around, she pointed to a metal sign that hanged above her. It read " Welcome to The Land Of Oblivion. Please enjoy your stay." Along with what Antoinette had just said.
Gregory felt like a dumbass now. " Oh." Was all he said.
Antoinette smirked at his expression, feeling triumphant and superior. "We can leave whenever we want. The catch is whether we want to leave or not."
He gave her a look. "Of course I want to leave!" He immediately said.
Raising her eyebrow, Antoinette rolled her eyes. " Are you sure? If you really did, then you would have disappeared the minute you said it. But alas, you are still here. Why is that, Gregory? " She slowly got up and started walking toward him. " Perhaps you don't really want to go just yet."
The distance between them were a few inches now. A few more steps and she will be close enough to kiss him.
Gregory gulped, his dark blue eyes fixated on her red full lips. They looked so tempting to kiss. Oddly, he knew how they felt against his even though he had never kissed the girl. It was like a distant memory in the back of his mind that told him how they felt. He couldn't resurface the memory clearly, so he just abandoned the attempt.
"Perhaps you want to be peaceful and tranquil for once. And this place is just perfect for that. All those problems on Earth can't get you here. It is a sanctuary. " Antoinette continued on, smiling. "We should double-bite often, don't you think so? " She covered her mouth with a pale hand as she giggled.
She is right. I do want to stay here. Gregory thought as he took another look around the cottage. He wondered what was outside.
" Outside there is an endless ocean." Antoinette said as if she read his mind. "By the way, I can read your mind. "
Gregory did a double take, looking at her stunned."What?"
Another giggle came out of her mouth. " Mates can read each others minds.
And talk telepathically like this. The young male did another double take as he heard her voice in his puzzled mind.
" But we are not mates! " He protested.
His self-assumed mate rolled her eyes at his denial. " Then how can I read your mind and speak in it? Eh? "
For once, the arrogant cocky eldest son of Fredrick The Great was at loss for a reply.
After a couple of minutes of awakard silence, Gregory finally replied. "Explain please."
The beauty of a girl sighed as if she hated explaining things. " My dad Jacques...well the whole Elder Council did not agree with our mating, so father surpressed our memories and made new ones to fill their spots. Silly father did not know that he just surpressed my human side's memories and not my vampire side because he is not aware of it. "
" So I am speaking with the vampire side not the human? " Gregory asked, trying to get his confusion straighten.
Antoinette nodded. " Oui. Only vampires are allow in Land Of Oblivion, my human side is sleeping you could say."
He didn't know why she had two sides in the first place. But then again, there hasn't been many dhampirs in history.
"Sit Gregory." She instructed, pointing to the chair she sat before. "I'm going to resurface the memories that my father surpressed. Shouldn't be too hard."
Surprisingly, he did not object but did as she said, curious to see what she was going to do.
The dhampir girl took a deep breath as she removed her raven hair from her china porcelain doll face, her cat green eyes focused on the boy before her.
" Close your eyes and stay still." Antoinette whispered, using two fingers to touch Gregory's temples. He felt two small stings from her fingers but he did not stir as she ordered.
Suddenly, Gregory felt that he was not alone in his mind. Another entity had stepped into the huge deep hole that was Gregory Sackville-Baggs's mind. As a reflex, he became tense and alert.
Relax. Antoinette whispered, touching the edges of his mind. She digged deeper and deeper into his mind, looking for the buried memories that meant so much to her.
The memories were locked in a box with chains all over it. Such confinement angered the young dhampir. She broke the chains and the box, letting the precious memories into freedom.
With a tired sigh, Antoinette exited out of his mind. Getting into someone's mind was tough work that can exhaust any regular vampire.
The forgotten memories hit Gregory like a lightning bolt. His eyes widened as his mind played them all at amazing speed that made his head hurt. It took several minutes for his head to be straight and be able to think of what he just saw.
" Liebe " Gregory breathed, his lips twitching into a worried frown at the girl who had just collapsed on the floor from exhaustion.
He picked up Antoinette bridal style and laid her on a crimson suede couch.
" You remember now. " Antoinette whispered, smiling weakly at him.
Gregory smiled back. "Yes, now rest. I can sense you are tired." He said, gently moving away her black tresses from her face. "We have all the time in the world as you said."
"Alright." His mate replied, closing her eyes and falling into a deep slumber that was surely gonna give her strength back.
The young boy explored the cottage while she slept. The cottage was fit that they could live here for a long time. It had a closet that was supplied with blood to last for at least four months. He found clothing from every century in the bedroom.
As he sat back in the living room in a chair across from the couch that Antoinette was sleeping on so he could watch her, Gregory drank blood in a champagne glass and thought.
Surely, they will have to return to face the problems on Earth. It saddened him that Antoinette will not remember who he was or any of this because she would be her human side when they returned. Back to the arms of her twin Axel and to the luxurious world known as the Elder Council. A place that was forbidden to a freak of a vampire like him.
Perhaps his father is allowed to enter that world , being Fredrick The Great after all, but the man swore that he will never associate with the Council again.
His family no longer belonged with the Damned since they were human and he wasn't.
The only good thing he found in his vampirism is that he was somewhat similiar to Antoinette, his mate.
But he was not strong enough to take on Axel, not yet. Lots of patience was required for the plan he had to take Antoinette back.
" Patience...lots of patience.." Gregory murmured before taking the last sip of the rich crimson liquid.
Antoinette fluttered her eyes open and smiled when she saw Gregory. Slowly and delicately, she sat up on the couch.
Then with a small wave, Gregory's mate vanished into thin air. "I assumed that she is back on Earth now, time is waiting for me to return as well." He mumbled to himself.
Every chapter title is a song by the wonderful inspirating Japanese Rock band the GazettE. The song 'Bathroom' is about meeting someone in a dream-like state so it kind of fits this chapter.
Review or screw it.
