"Renfield!" Vlad yelled, as he ran into Renfield's lab. He could still see what Amelia was doing in his mind.
"Yes Master Vlad?" Renfield asked, still concentrating on re-reading through his results for the third time and didn't even look at Vlad.
"Have you done those tests yet?" Vlad asked his servant.
"Yes Master." Renfield told his second youngest Master, as he handed the test results to Vlad, who speed read them in 30 seconds. Vlad looked at Renfield slightly disturbed by what he had just read.
"Thanks Renfield." Vlad told Renfield before he whooshed to the front room. The Count, Ingrid, Daniel (he could also see Amelia in his mind) were there and Morgan was also still here.
"Ah. Vlad. Your farther has been an excellent host. Sharing a goblet of A positive and talking of the old days." Morgan explained as Vlad rolled his eyes and walked over to Morgan.
"You were wrong about what happens to the Heir." Vlad explained.
"What do you mean your Grandness?" Morgan asked as Vlad rolled his eyes again.
"I mean the results of the tests of Amelia's hair and the reflection's DNA on my jacket prove that you are wrong about what you told me happens to the Heir!" Vlad informed.
"You can't honestly think that a girl is your Heir, your Grandness." Morgan asked trying to show as much respect as he could when asking all theses questions.
"The tests prove it." Vlad tried to explain. Vlad was also fed up with everyone in the High Council using the word Grandness when speaking to him in every sentence after the first. Morgan then gave Vlad a look that was clearly saying 'What do the results say then.' Vlad sat at the table next to Ingrid, who was painting her nails red, black and Grey, Vlad put the test results on the table, and wet through them as he spoke. "These test how that if Amelia wasn't the Her Of The Chosen One then her refection wouldn't be after her. They also show that the reflection has the powers of a powerful 16-year-old vampire. That NO 13-year-old male or female, strong or weak would be able to survive. . .The test also prove that if The Chosen One bites his Heir then their reflection will go back to the family Blood Mirror until they are 16, but the bite makes them ill until their 14th birthday and weather they survive that or not will prove weather they are the Heir or not!" Vlad explained.
"And all that is proven in Renfield's tests, Vladdy?" The Count asked. Vlad rolled his eyes yet again. 'Does dad have to call me Vladdy in front of Morgan, The Head Of The Vampire High Council!' Vlad thought.
"This is research as well as tests, dad." Vlad explained.
Meanwhile happening at the same time
Amelia looked around the room, it wasn't bad - for an abandoned building anyway. The walls had faded red wall paper, and a faded black carpet, there was three coffins, all next to each other there was nothing else in the room other than an old cupboard and a fireplace with a dying fire. Also there was newish three seated sofa which must have been brought recently. When Amelia was in the room Raymond closed the door and whooshed to the dying fire and clicked his fingers and the fire sprung back to life. Amelia was freezing cold so she sat on the sofa, which was in front of the fire.
"Becca and Emma should be back soon." Raymond told Amelia, as he sat next to his sister.
"Where are they?" Amelia asked.
"Hunting." Raymond informed Amelia, then he saw his sister's face. "Not breathers, we don't hunt them, we hunt Animals." Raymond explained. 5 minutes or so later two women whooshed in. One of the women looked about 420-years-old and the other woman looked about 100 years younger. They both had tatty clothes and messy hair. They looked like sisters. They both had bright green eyes like Raymond's. They were clearly Emma and Becca. But Raymond felt the need to introduce them anyway. "Amelia this is Becca and my twin Emma. Emma, Becca this is Amelia." Raymond told his three sisters as he stood up. "I'm going hunting. Make sure Amelia doesn't run off." Raymond told his 420-year-old and 315-year-old sisters.
"As If!" Amelia said sounding hurt that her brother didn't trust her when he only met her 2 hours ago - Although it was what she was planning to do all along.
"I wasn't born yesterday, 'sis'." Raymond said, while failing in his attempt to sound cool, by emphasizing the word 'sis'. As Raymond left Amelia thought of a new plan. Make them thin your settling in for a week or so then when their back are turned run out the door.
"It's ten past four in the morning, you should go to bed." Amelia was told by her eldest sister, Emma, who whooshed over to the cupboard and took 3 capes from the middle self. "You can use these as blankets." Emma added.
"Okay." Amelia said, as she took the capes off her new half sister, however Amelia was more interested about the 2 full black sacks her other half sister Becca was holding. "What's in those bags?" Amelia asked, as she made a blanket out of the three capes that she was given.
"Didn't Raymond tell you how me, him and Emma make money?" Becca asked back.
"Raymond told me about how all of our other half brothers and sisters died and mostly because of dad." Amelia explained. Becca's face weakened as she looked down at her hole-covered shoes. She was obviously upset and Amelia felt slightly guilty, but her question was still answered.
"Yeah. Well. Where ever we go every other night we hunt animals, then half an hour before dawn the next morning we take the dead animal bodies to the nearest butchers shop and for the animals the butchers give us money for them. But we have never been able to save enough to buy a proper house." Becca explained. Becca and Emma then whooshed to there coffins and sat in them while they talked about sister stuff, while Amelia pretended to fall asleep. She was waiting for her sisters to fall asleep so she could see if she could speak to Vlad. Amelia looked at her watch. It was ten past five in the morning. Amelia heard Raymond come in and closed her eyes tight as if she was sleeping.
"How has been?" Raymond asked Becca and Emma.
"She's been fast asleep for the past hour. And no wonder after what happened with those slayers." Emma informed her twin. 'How did they know about the slayers? Where they spying on me while I was saving Vlad?' Amelia thought.
"We should get to sleep ourselves. It is dawn at seven thirty. We need to be up by quarter to seven." Raymond informed although they had gone through the same routine for the past 305 years. Raymond sat in his coffin then all three vampire laid down at the same time and closed there coffins at the same time as well. Amelia took off the cape-blanket and sat crossed-legged on the sofa and stared at the fire.
"Vlad?" Amelia whispered being careful not to wake the vampires who were only a few meters away from her. "Vlad!...Are you there?...Is our connection strong enough for us to talk to each other?...Vlad!" Amelia added still whispering.
"It is now." said a echoey voice of Vlad.
"Oh Vlad! I don't like it here I know they are my brother and sisters, but I'm in danger and I don't feel safe here! What should I do? Should I get out now while I still can?" Amelia whispered in a rush as she sprung off the sofa.
"No Amelia calm down. If you go out on your own you'll be in high danger. Let me come to you." Vlad explained.
"But you don't know where I am!" Amelia whispered holding back tears, right now she wanted to be sitting on Vlad's coffin while he hugged her and said everything will be alright.
"Amelia. How many streets do you think are full of old Victorian abandoned buildings in Liverpool?!" Vlad said asking a rhetorical question, which made Amelia giggle slightly spite of everything. Vlad then told Amelia about the tests and research and what it proved.
"So you have to bite me to save me?" Amelia asked.
"Yeah." Vlad replied.
"Will it hurt?" Amelia asked again. Vlad sighed. 'There is no point in lying to her.' Vlad thought.
"Yes. Amelia. It will hurt. A lot." Vlad informed.
"Well if you don't find me within a week I'm running home." Amelia warned.
"Fine." said Vlad thinking that finding his 'half-sister' would be easy. "Just go to sleep now it is ten to six!" Vlad ordered.
"I love you, Vlad." Amelia told him, she had never said it to Vlad before and the words made Vlad feel special although he knew she meant as a brother which made him feel guilty at the same time.
"I love you too Amelia. We'll see each other in person soon." Vlad said, and his words and his sweet voice repeating themselves over and over help Amelia to finally sleep, on the sofa, in front of the fire, in that old Victorian abandoned building, with her new half brother and sisters.
6 days Later with Vlad
"You told me that you would find Amelia in a couple of days!" Daniel complained.
"I know . . . Like I've to you AND Amelia 100 times already . . . I'm sorry. . . I thought find her would be easy . . . but it isn't!" Vlad tried to explain but Daniel just rolled his eyes at his 'half-brother'.
"Well she is YOUR sister and she is MY twin you should try harder!" Daniel commented. 'Try harder? Is he flapping joking?' Vlad thought.
"Can't you see that I've tried the best I can?!" Vlad shot back as he pointed at the blueish purple bags under his eyes. "This is because I've haven't slept longer than 3 hours in the coarse of 6 days!" Vlad continued.
"Well if you don't find tonight then tomorrow she is going to she is going to run home by herself and we both know what will happen the moment she leaves that building." Daniel explained.
"Then I'll convince her not to run away." Vlad reasoned, he looked at the wall and Amelia perspective appeared.
Meanwhile happening at the same time
Amelia was sitting on the sofa next to Becca, when Raymond come in and then Becca left. It had been like that for six night Amelia's half brother and sisters took it in turns to look after her and took it in turns to hunt. Amelia had been bored out of her mind for the past 6 days. Amelia didn't think a lot of her new brother, he was bossy and rude, however sometimes you could see he had a good nature. Emma was like a female version of Raymond in all respects, it was easy to tell they were twins. Becca was the complete opposite of her half twin brother and sister and wasn't liked by Amelia at first but at least she spoke to Amelia and therefore in a few days grew a good relationship with Becca. Amelia found out so much more about her farther from speaking with Becca than talking to the 420-year-old twins. Amelia always felt different from her family, because no one else had red hair and blue eyes like her's - not even her younger red-head cousin - Amelia now knew that Sliver - Amelia's dead half sister - had red hair and blue eyes like Amelia's. Amelia also found out from talking to Becca that their farther used to have red hair before he dyed it black in the early sixteen hundreds and that he tried to kill Becca, Emma and Raymond in the nine-teen eighties where his blue eyes turned green when he nearly died himself. Raymond and Emma always sat there on the sofa with their eye's always on me or sitting in there coffin with their eye's always on the door. It was midnight and everyone was home so Amelia pretended to go to sleep and waited untill all three siblings where in there coffins then spoke to Vlad.
"Vlad?" she said.
"Hello Amelia...I need to ask you something." Vlad explained.
"I'm the one who should asking the questions! Where the bats are you?!" Amelia whisper shouted very quietly and even with Vlad's super hearing he had to wait a few seconds before he realized what she said.
"Finding you is going to be harder than I thought I have told you that every night in the past 6 days. Now tell me are you still planning on running away?" Vlad asked. Amelia was silent for a minute thinking on what to say.
"I don't know anymore. When I think about it I get a weird felling in my chest." Amelia explained being truthful on how she felt.
"It called guilt." Vlad said sarcastically. "It means that you've grown a bound with your new family." Vlad informed.
"I know that I didn't need you to spell it out!" Amelia snapped.
"So are you staying there or not?" Vlad asked.
"I'm think I'm staying." Amelia replied. 'Although Raymond reminds me more and more of my dad every time I see him.' Amelia thought.
"That's good. Just stay there until I find you. . .Now go to sleep." Vlad ordered.
"I love you, Vlad." said Amelia.
"I love you too, Amelia." said Vlad.
And that was there last conversation before Amelia went bad.
Hey I know this chapter used to but I could think of a third chapter so I split this long chapter into two. Sorry if anyone got excited about a new chapter then realized it was the same thing.
