"Farewell my snake, parting is such sweet sorrow," Arwyn said dramatically.

"That is the stupidest thing that I have ever heard come out your mouth," Kuroi said.

"Shut up!"

"Guys calm down a bit," said Kirin.

Darren and Evra hugged each other and waved goodbye.

"So now where do we go?" Arwyn asked.

Mr. Crepsly looked to Darren.

"I don't know really, why don't we let Kirin pick this time?" he said shrugging.

Kirin smiled brightly.

"Lets go to my hometown then," she suggested.

Although Kirin was born in Ireland, she spent most of her years in England at a particular town before she became a vampire.

Everyone nodded and began their trek.

"Are we there yet?" asked Kirin.

Mr. Crepsly looked to the sky and saw the sun rising.

"We can stay at that hotel and resume our journey tomorrow night," he said.

They walked to the hotel and got a couple of rooms. As soon as Mr. Crepsly got in his he went to sleep.

"...So...what do we do now?" asked Kirin.

"I have all this energy left!" Arwyn shouted.

"Well, we could go spend out morning exploring the town," Darren said.

They agreed and walked out the hotel.

"Let's go to the mall!" Arwyn suggested enthusiastically.

"YEAH!" yelled Kirin in an equally enthusiastic tone.

The group walked towards the mall.

"Hey, we'll all split up and meet each other at the food court," said Darren.

Everyone nodded and walked in different directions.

After a few hours they met up at the food court where Arwyn was found stuffing her face with food.

"Eat much?" asked Darren.

Arwyn looked up and glared.

"So, what'd you get?" Kirin asked.

Arwyn pulled out a Hot Topic (....-.- sadly I don't own that store, even tho it's the best!) bag and set it in front of her.

"Should've guessed," Darren said.

"Hey Kuroi where'd you go?" asked Kirin.

"Swords shop and a few clothing stores," she answered plainly.

"...Alright, I think its time for us to go."

"Mr. Crepsly, we're back!" yelled Arwyn as she opened his hotel room door.

They walked into a mess. A group of purple skinned, red haired Vampaneze were standing. One holding Mr. Crepsly but the neck.

"Put him down!" yelled Arwyn.

"And if they don't?" Steve asked stepping out from the shadows.

Arwyn stared at him.

"This is no time to get sentimental Arwyn. And you vampaneze, you'd better let Mr. Crepsly go, or I'll impale you all," Kuroi said getting a sword out from her bag.

The hilt was black with a silver dragon winding down it. Instead of a normal eye there was a diamond in place of it. She unsheathed it to reveal a newly sharpened blade.

"And if you move one step closer, then your mentor loses his head," the vampaneze said raising his claws to Mr. Crepsly's neck.

"So what'll you do?" Steve asked.

Kuroi looked to Mr. Crepsly, who wasn't struggling at all, and then to the vampaneze with the sadistic grin on his face.

"Kirin!" she screamed.
