Chapter 2: loss again
It was late at night, the night itself was calm and quite all should have been at peace but it was not. The ten year old carry tossed and turned in her sleep the nightmares of the past haunting her. She awoke and sat up quickly in bed her eyes wide sweat pouring down her face and back she was breathing heavily. It was the same nightmare from before the werewolf's, the vampire and the same elderly man, they haunted her when she was younger when she first came to the mansion. Six years had passed since that night when her grandfather and momma had died, and lady lania had taken her in and adopted her. Carrie sighed before swinging her legs over the side of the bed, she felt like a glass of ice cold water.
She walked across the bedroom and out of the room. She then walked down the stairs and across the parlor and into the kitchen where she got a ice cold glass of water. It was not long before she was starting to head back to bed she approached the kitchen door but stopped short of opening the door, she heard voices on the other side one was lania's her mothers voice, the other she could not tell. She pushed the door opened a crack and peered out standing there was her mother and a man. "Why does he wish for her now" her mother asked. "I don't know my orders were giving to retrieve her and bring her back to the castle" answered the man. Her mother shook her head "no I don't think it right she is so young" the other man smirked "does it matter, from what I was told if you don't hand her over peacefully I can kill you, so what will it be life or death" the man said. Her mother stared at the man for a few seconds, carrie who was ease dropping stepped back a ways] kicking up some of the dust on the floor, she inhaled it which made her sneeze. The man in the other room turned towards the door "what was that" he asked "probably nothing, you must have bad hearing" she answered. "Don't feed me that, I have good hearing" he approached the door, carrie backed up away from the door, she quickly turned spotting a open cabinet she ran and hid in it, the man entered the desolate kitchen.
The man walked around looking, carrie held her breath as he got closer, her mother entered the kitchen "there is nothing here, see you were hearing things" she said a hint of worry there. "You lie wench, there is someone here I can smell them" he answered. Lania stepped forward and grabbed the mans arm "leave now" she said, "not till I get the child woman, and touch me again and I will hurt you" he said pulling his arm away, lania then grabbed at him again, he pulled his arm away before she could grab him, he then back handed her. Carrie let out a small whimper, the man turned towards the cabinet and walked towards it he smiled then leaned down to open it, lania had grabbed a knife and lunged at him she managed to cut his cheek, he turned around and hit her, sending her flying across the room, he then walked up to her and smiled down at her before kicking her in the stomach. He then leaned down and picked her up and brought her to his eye level, "I told you bitch" he then throw her on the counter then took a knife from the counter and cut her face, carrie seeing this jumped form the cabinet and shouted "don't hurt her" the man turned around, he quickly ran up to carrie and grabbed her "so you are the brat the count wants" he said with a sneer.
Lania recovered then lunged at the man holding carrie a knife drawn, she stabbed him in the stomach, he dropped carrie and turned around, a look of shock on his face "you stupid bitch you stabbed me" he said, he then pulled the blade from his stomach, the wound healed quickly. He then smirked again "you will pay for it" he said. Fear was in lania's face, the man quickly grabbed her and bit into her neck, daring her of her blood. Carrie looked on in horror it was happening again, tears formed in her eyes "NO" she shouted before realizing a energy towards the man, it hit him, he turned to dust, her mother collapsed on the ground holding her neck. Carrie looked at her then kneeled down.
"Are you all right" she asked fear in her. "Yes I am fine, listen you have to get away from here" she said putting pressure on the wound in her throat. "Why, what is wrong mother" she asked curiously "You must carrie, listen you don't have long in till others come" "but I don't wish to leave you, please tell me why" carrie asked more tears pouring down her face. "I will tell you, there is a evil man named count dracula he wishes to have you" "but why" carrie asked "because of the power you wield, you saw what you did, you are strong carry, he is afraid you may stand against him so he wishes for you to join him" tears were starting to form in her mothers eyes. "I wont leave you mother" carry said, "you must carrie" she said urgency in her voice, howls of wolfs could be heard now. "No, I wont let you die like she did" lania stared at the child before hugging her tightly. "I love you carrie and I don't wish to see you hurt" carrie hugged back they were like this for awhile before, a loud crash was heard, the both looked, standing there was a werewolf a look of evil on it face. "Run now carrie" lania said pushing carrie away.
Carrie got an ran, the wolf lunged at her, her mother screamed and pushed her out of the way. Carrie fell to the ground, the wolf tore and ripped at the woman's flesh. Carrie sat there in shock for a few moments, anger welling up inside her she then released another energy at the creature, it let out a howl and fell back, dead. Carrie the crawled over to her mother and looked at her. It happened again another one she loved lost from demons.

Carrie stood looking at the grave which her mother was buried in. Her tears were no more now, it was two weeks after the incident. The villagers had found her and her mothers bodice, it was not long before she was buried. She made up her mind there and now she would avenge her mother's death once and for all, even if it killed her.
