Chapter 1
"And this spot for vacationing you picked out, is it near a beach? Or perhaps it's by a calm peaceful river? Maybe in one of Europe's very old cities?"
"It's not what you think, Starfire" Raven said calmly as a she navigated the T-Ship through the air.
The two Titanettes were on a vacation. Each to a spot of their choosing.
"Do you think the boys miss us? I am feeling the sickness for our home already."
This was a 'girls only' vacation, and Raven's excuse to get away from Beast Boy for awhile. Though Raven was beginning to regret bringing Starfire along, she should have known that Starfire wouldn't appreciate the spot she picked out. They didn't share many common interests like real friends do.
"We're here" Raven muttered as she slipped off the pilot's seat. Starfire floated happily after her as they ventured into the warm sun's rays of daylight. Except there wasn't any rays of warm sunlight at all. "This is Whitewood"
Whitewood was a small town, a peasantry village, the likes of which had never seen anything like the T-ship before. It was almost as though the town had fallen out of an 17th century text book. The sky, the houses, even the grass seemed gray and washed out, like an old photograph.
"This is…..nice" Starfire said nervously as she searched for a spot of color.
Raven walked over to a small cottage and pulled out a key. She opened the door and cringed a bit at the sight of the house's clutter and utter filthiness. Pushing cobwebs out of the door frame, she nodded for Starfire to follow.
"This is where we're staying. There should be a broom in the closet if you want to get a head start on cleaning this place up. "
Starfire also cringed when she walked in the doorway. The welcome committee was made up of spiders and it looked like as though a giant dust pan had dumped it's cargo here for the last two centuries.
"I'll go outside and meet our fellow village-mates" Starfire fake-grinned as she anxiously scooted out the door. She walked over to the nearest person she could find and engaged her in conversation.
"Hello. I am Starfire of the Teen Titans. I am curious as to the whereabouts of local tourist attractions. Like, say that murky castle conveniently just over that hill."
The village women seemed shocked at both Starfire's spontaneous conversation and her revealing outfit, "Child, what on Earth do you think you are speaking of? That castle is home to…" the women hushed her voice and beckoned Starfire to lean closer, "… lord Greget…. the vampire" .
"Vampire?"
At this point Raven had come out to join Starfire and couldn't help overhearing. Rolling her eyes she remarked:
"There is no such thing as Vampires, I've been hearing these ridiculous horror stories all my life and I still have yet to actually find one."
"Are you saying that you are not .. afraid of his dark presence?"
"I'm saying I deny his dark presence. I'll go up to that castle and prove that there is no such thing as vampires."
