It was a rather cold night in the Scarlet Mansion area. Perhaps the fairies were playing around with the temperatures again; or, perhaps it was merely winter. For Flandre, season changes didn't exist in her mind. A lot of things didn't exist in her mind due to her long imprisonment. Flandre was left to recollect her past during these 495 years. A countless number of these years were spent literally locked in the basement, unable to even leave, while Sakuya brought her food to sustain her.

Such events were paramount to Flandre's growing insanity that she was well known for. In fact, Flandre's imprisonment was not due to her insanity as one would think, but rather due to her power to make things explode. Flandre wouldn't merely kill things with that power on sight but she, at first, had trouble controlling this power. Admittedly, Flandre did have difficulty with the transition between vampire and human. It all went back to her past. A history of abuse and imprisonment haunted her to this very day. Physical abuse often times on the line of torture. Those nights, she would lie on the floor on the concrete basement of the castle with only a barred window to look through.

Flandre would always listen in fear for those footsteps coming down the stairs. Each time, it was her father. Flandre knew what was coming for her. He cut her thumb off, he whipped her. Other horrific images of the abuse sit fresh in her mind to this day. Flandre, however, was not the only one who was a victim of imprisonment and abuse. Her sister Remilia was also locked away in the same room with her. But they did not pick on Remilia as much, however Remilia was left to watch in horror the abuses inflicted on her sister. This may be why Remilia has such a soft spot in her heart for her sister despite Remilia's tough nature. The girls had hidden powers locked away that when the crimson moon shone through the barred windows of the basement, the girls' hidden powers were awakened almost instantly.

They had heard the steps again, their father coming down for more abuse. This time the girls just wait. With their new strength they were able to rip the chains that held them to the basement walls right off of the walls and pull the cuff off. As their father opened the door, Remilia started to charge her powers, unknowing what it would do but the spear Gungnir appeared behind her; but, before she could shoot it through the door, the door opened and Flandre immediately pushed her sister through a wall and ran up to her father, pouncing on him as she put her hands around his neck she squeezed it and got in her father's face, her eyes red, more red than they've ever been in her life. This was the revenge she'd been waiting for as she punctured the side of his neck with her fingernails, she shouted at him, "THIS IS ALL YOU GOT! AHAHAHA COME ON FATHER ! COME ON!" screaming, she punctured the other side of his neck, pushing her fingernails deep into the pressure points on his neck.

He squirmed, he begged her to stop. He finally got desperate and offered her her freedom if she let him go. Unfortunately for him, Flandre was not too happy to be told by an insignificant human that she is free to go. "WAHAAHAAHAHA I'm free to go you say Father?" She said as she let go of his neck and forced him to stand up. "You are free to go Father, ufufu." Her Father wasted no time in running away but Flandre didn't let him get too far as she pounced around on all fours and leaped on him again from behind as he was running up the stairs. His face smacked against the concrete of the stairs as she grabbed him by his leg and squeezed it until blood gushed out. "Come on Father! Ufufufu, can't you run faster than that Father!" Flandre grabbed him by his other leg and squeezed it until blood started to pour out. He couldn't stand up anymore as she immediately back flipped to the bottom of the stairs and watched as he crawled up the stairs. Suddenly, he stopped and rolled his body over so he could face her and said, "Fl..andre... I am so sorry. Ahaha revenge... I have been a terrible man. I won't run anymore, do what you like to me."

Flandre looked at him as he lie there with bloodied legs and a blood trail pouring down the stairs. His eyes filled with tears be it from sadness or the pain he felt, the tears were there and very real. Flandre's eyes immediately lost its red color and went back to normal. Flandre dropped to her knees and put her hands over her eyes. Tears began to fall as she let out a loud cry. The years of torture she endured and now watching her Father's apology as he lie there in suffering. As she cried, images of the things she did to her flashed through her head. She stood up, with head still tilted down and walked very slowly to her father. "I can't forgive you" She said as she took one step. "I will kill you" She said she took another step. "You hit me, you violated me, you cut off my thumb Father." Flandre showed her Father her hand which had a newly regenerated thumb thanks to her vampire transformation. "Father. Oh Father. I..." No sooner did Flandre say that, screams and explosions were heard coming throughout the castle. It would seem that Remilia is getting her revenge right now. Leviathan suddenly appeared in Flandre's hand, she looked at it and grinned. She ran up to her Father, "This is it for you Father ufufu. Flan will kill you now, bye bye hehe." Flandre giggled as she quickly raised Leviathan up and swung downward, cutting her father's head off in one swing.

That was the end of it. Flandre wasn't sad, no. Flandre raised her spear up in a victory pose and started laughing maniacally, laughing loudly. Her laughter echoed throughout the whole castle, "Ahhhhhh ha ha ha ha ha, how was that Father! Ahaha ohh ohh look at you now!" Flandre shouted as she continue the insane laughter echoing the halls of the castle. She walked over to her father's head and picked it up by the hair. Her eyes more red as her vampiric urge to feast came and she took the bottom half of her fathers and began eating his head, savoring every drop of blood. Remilia rushed down to the basement stairs after hearing her sister's laughter, only to see her sitting on the stairs, holding the head with bright red eyes, face covered in blood, eating the head. Remilia ran up to her sister and hugged her tight. "Sister.. I-I also couldn't control myself. Everyone is dead Flandre! Ahaha they're all dead now you know sister?" Remilia's face had also been covered with blood suggesting she also had the vampiric urges to feed. Flandre threw the head down the stairs, smacking against the wall as she stood up pulling her sister up with her. Flandre's eyes normalized and she turned to her sister and embraced her.

The two sisters held each other tight, crying in each others arms. They were still children in fact, though Remilia was certainly older. They were alone, frightened by their new powers and cravens to feed, and frightened by their actions all together. Surely they will be hunted for the murders of the castle. More-so because her father was the king. Remilia quickly expanded her wings and attempted to fly upwards and she was successful. As Remilia stay in the air, Flandre could not fly. Flandre cried to her sister not to leave her! So Remilia glided back down and took Flandre in her arms and they both flew off into the night. They didn't know where to go nor what to do. Their new life begins here.
