Dice and Vincent stepped into the old, musty mansion. It smelt like mold. Very nasty, in Dice's opinion. Dice had always avoided this mansion, yet she had gone in once, out of curiosity....and ended up being carried out by Nariko, her faithful friend. Vincent smiled at the mansion's appearance and looked at Dice. "Come on! I want to show you the piano I used to play all the time...." he said kind of excitedly.
They walked to the ballroom with the beautiful grand piano in the corner. It was nicer than the rest of the house. Dice liked this room. It appeared that it had never been used at all..... yet, it was still dusty and moldy. Vincent walked over to the piano and wiped some dust off the ivory keys.
"Can you play?" asked Dice, a little bit of challenge in her voice.
He smiled wickedly and sat down on the seat. His fingers flew over the keys with grace. The song he played was so dismal, but very powerful. She seemed to be taken away by the music. She looked at Vincent's face, which was focused and youthful, and a shiver ran up her spine. She walked over and held his hands. He could feel her fear through her touch....He stared up at her, starting to smile.
"You win. You can play very, very well, uh, c-can I see the rest of the mansion?" said Dice, nervously. Why was she so nervous? She had no real reason to be nervous....or did she? *my god, he scared me so bad! he looks like a vampire....ohhh....scary. but at the same time, I feel like I need him...I need him so bad....* thought Dice, her breathing rate increasing a bit. Vincent took her from the ballroom and went upstairs, into the left wing. He showed her the bedroom and the plant room, along with the study with the safe in it. They entered the right wing of the house. Vincent didn't bother with the other rooms, he only went into the bedroom. He walked to the stone wall, Dice sighed from slight impatience. He only smiled and tripped the switch that opened the stone wall. Dice gasped and hung her mouth open, she hadn't seen that before. She followed Vincent down the wooden winding stairs. They came into the frieghtening tunnel....Dice's heart rate grew faster. She could feel her heart bang against her chest as she saw human bones and skulls on the ground. She also saw some old wooden cascets.... She felt as if Vincent would turn around and start sucking the blood from her neck....but she put that out of her mind when he showed her the basement room....where his coffin was.
"ACK!!! C-Coffins!!!" yelled Dice.
Vincent laughed. "Yeah. Coffins...." his eyes grew dark and scary as he stared at Dice with a wicked smile. "I had slept for years. As a punishment....for all of my sins. I grew accustomed to the coffin for a bed....most of the people in town called me....a...vampire." His silky voice hung on the word, 'vampire'. Dice had gotten another shiver up her spine. Vincent walked closer to Dice, smiling. "of course....I'll never tell. they can't prove a thing." Dice had yet another shiver go up her spine. She closed her eyes for a little bit, only to open them again and see Vincent's hand tracing her shoulder. He walked around to face her and grinned. He leaned in a bit and kissed her, unable to control his emotions, strangely. *why can't I hold back? I'd better hold back...or....something might happen.* thought Vincent. *oh god, I can't take it any more....I've got to stop...* Vincent broke the kiss and gasped at himself, at what he did and at how scared he made her. He left quickly, mumbling an apology to her.
Dice followed him, trying to keep up. It was hard. He was really fast. She finally caught up with him outside the mansion. "Hey! Vincent....I...wasn't all that scared of you! ok...I lied. I was. and I kinda still am, but....it's a good kind of scared...if you know what I mean." Dice said, smiling at him. He looked at her in slight awe and shock as she walked away. he couldn't believe what she had just said to him. He decided to follow her and check up on Aries, Cloud, and the others as well.
