Vlad walked the twins to the attic where he lived and because he obviously lived in the attic, the twins were tried from walking up all the steps.
"Why do you live in the attic of a school anyway?" snapped Amelia, who was dragging her suitcase up the stairs.
"Yeah. Why?" copied Daniel, who was also dragging his suitcase up the stairs.
"Because this is where we wanted to live." replied Vlad, who was carrying a third suitcase his arms no problem, which Vlad had been told that inside it was the things that Amelia and Daniel shared.
"Why?" asked Daniel, like a 5 year old.
"Yeah. Why?" copied Amelia, also like a 5 year old.
"Because the Vampire High Council, didn't believe I was the chosen one. Punishment for fraud of the Chosen is death of the entire clan, so where better to hide than a school." relied Vlad.
"The attic of a supermarket!" joked Amelia giggling with her brother at her own joke.
"Ha. Ha. Ha." mocked Vlad, as he started to walk down the corridor, to the front door of his house. He unlocked the door, then opened the door and held it open for the twins and they slowly walked in.
"At least it looks better than it does on the outside." Amelia said trying to be kind.
"What she said." said Daniel, looking around like his twin sister was doing.
"Um...Dad this is Amelia and Daniel." He told his farther. Count Dracula looked up from his 'Vampire Times' newspaper for a second and then said:
"I told you I didn't care about those bat wanna-bes."he said this while not looking at anyone at all and went back to reading straight after saying it.
"Garlic muncher!" Amelia muttered. However everyone's vampire hearing still heard.
The Count had a sudden flow of anger go through hid dead veins.
"You DARE insult Count Dracula?!" He slowly whispered in a scary way only just loud enough for Amelia to hear and answer.
"Yes I dare. You're not scary. No wonder you haven't bitten anyone in decades!" Amelia relied calmly, as if she was just having a normal conversation with her twin.
The Count glared at Amelia and she glared back not frightened at all. This made Vlad realize he needed to break the tension!
"Okay. I'm going to show the twins to their room. Come on!" Vlad said pulling Amelia by the solder and used eye contact to order Daniel to follow, which he did.
The bedroom scene...
"Ten seconds into a new life and already you have a bad relationship with your stepfather!" Vlad had said for the tenth time with still no answer. "AMELIA will you answer me!" he added shouting only her name to get her attention .
"I had a bad 'relationship' with my real dad. And yet you still expect me to have a good one a step-dad?" Amelia asked being serious, as she put her clothes in her new wardrobe.
"Yes I do. And I doubt your relationship with your farther was that bad seeing as you ran away to him." Vlad shot back at rude little sister, as he got out a large black and red box that he had got for the twins to put their 'personal' things into.
"We were 9, we didn't understand that squatting in abandoned buildings was wrong. Let alone understand it was a horrible way to live. I tried running away back to mum once but she was still holding a grudge and sent me back." Amelia explained.
"All I'm trying to say is that you have just started a new life here and that you're not exactly trying hard to make good first impressions." Vlad told both the twins as Daniel ignored him because both Daniel and Vlad knew Daniel had done nothing wrong - well had done nothing wrong . . . yet.
"He insulted me! The blooming breather lover. "Amelia reminded Vlad.
"Doesn't mean you have to insult him back!" Vlad told Amelia, as he got a bag from the third suitcase, it looked exactly the same to the bags that the art GCSE people carried around and inside it was drawings, obviously done by the twins. "These are good." Vlad said only looking at them through the bag so if the twins didn't want him to see he wouldn't look anymore "Can I look at them properly?" asked Vlad. Amelia said noting she just took the bag away from him and took out the pictures and carefully placed each on her new bright red and black polka doted bed, so Vlad could see them all. Vlad looked at them for a while and saw his sibling's talent. One of them was of a man wearing a black cape which was red on the inside he had dark brown eyes and ginger hair sticking up all over the place and wearing sun-proof clothing like the count's but red. Vlad knew that this man was there farther when he saw anther painting of this man with Amelia and Daniel. Then Vlad saw a painting of a man transforming into a werewolf which was clearly a picture of P-a-t-r-i-c-k, all of them looked so realistic like they were they were with you in the room. There were pictures of Magda and her standing in her front door holding baby Wolfie in her arms. Vlad saw that the twins must of run out of paint at some point as only half of the paintings were painted and a few not even completed. Vlad deiced to buy Amelia and Daniel some new paints along with his other presents for them of course. "These are really good." Vlad told the twins again who had already going back to unpacking.
"Amelia does most of the work." Daniel exlained as Amelia – who had her back to both her brothers - had a sudden rush of bad memories about her father and successfully held back the tears.
"So . . . how has mum been?" Vlad asked not thinking about what he was saying or how the twins were going to react, and holding up the pretense that he wasn't half breather by calling Magda mum.
"Who cares about that-"began Daniel.
"-Werewolf loving witch!" continued Amelia.
Vlad didn't show it, but he was really shocked on how they reacted to his question. Even when Ingrid went to robin's house to live with mum and he asked near enough the same question the answer wasn't that bad! If a '...werewolf-loving witch.' was what they thought of their own mother then how were they going to survive their new lives?
