A/N This is probably my shortest chapter. But still, I hope you enjoy it!!
It seemed like a much longer ride to the Manor Valerous than only one and a half days. Meggane had offered to come out and help Val get her horse put up and all, but Val wanted to do it herself. Val walked into the stables and tied up her horse, making a mental list of questions to ask Frankenstein when he arrived tomorrow. She turned to the horse and gave a pathetic smile, but that soon turned into laughter. Just thinking about her father still being alive made her laugh. Val knew what exactly he was dealing with and how to kill it. But she hadn't expected what came next. A Vampire she easily recognized as a Bride turned up in the stables. Val automatically reached into the horse's side bag and pulled out her steaks. "No, please, don't turn me to dust!!" cried the Bride. "I want to help you." "Impossible," Val retorted, "You're a Bride of that Dracula want-to-be." "They don't know I'm here. I was sent to hunt tonight and I saw you and followed you here. I'm Mariden." She stammered. "I'm assuming you know who I am." Val said as the Vampire turned into her human form. She was beautiful: Deep blue eyes, long black hair (kept in a braid), and a perfect face. The Vampire nodded. "You're a murderer," She said. Val took deep offence at that. "Excuse me, but my father was the one who killed the last of the Valerous Family and about three other humans. No, I'm not the murderer, he is." "You're father, Gabriel, is still alive. And I know where he is. Do you want my help or not, Valerie?" "You have one chance, if you blow it, I personally will dust you. Deal?" Val asked. Mariden nodded and then led the way back to the manor. Val walked in, forgetting that she was with a Vampire. "You have to invite me in," Mariden reminded her. "Mariden, you may enter." As soon as Val had said it, she regretted it. What have I done? She thought. As Mariden Walked by, she said, "Call me Mari."
