As they walked up to the front door, the oak double doors swung open, as if to great them. They ignored this fact, and walked straight into the house. They all drew their weapons, anticipating an ambush. They walked straight ahead, then noticed the only way to go was up. There were no doors on the main floor of the house, other than the one they just walked through, so they climbed the flight, and were surprised. The floor that they had all just stepped on gave way, sending them falling through the air. They landed hard on the stone floor, giving off a loud thump. They all groaned as they rose to their feet, rubbing the bruised places on their bodies. That's when they hear the loud chuckle. Someone or something found it very amusing that they just fell ten feet down, and landed on solid stone.

They looked around, trying to figure out who it was, but the lights were very dim down here. They could barely see each other let alone anyone who could be watching them.

"Who's there," Tristan called out, not expecting an answer. That's when the lights flared brightly, illuminating the dark room. They heard the laugh again, it was cold and harsh, but somehow familiar. They followed it down the long corridor, then stepped out into a large circular room. It was at least twenty feet across, and made of the same stone as the floor. The torches that aligned the walls made the room glow a bright orange-yellow. It was damp, but somehow warm down here. Erie but calm. The room was a sanctuary to vampires, they were sure. Then a man stepped out of the shadows, and walked to a large chair, a thrown rather, and took his seat. This man, they guessed was the one who they had been looking for. His face was still somehow emerged in shadow, but his presence seemed too familiar. He let out another laugh, cold and harsh.

"So you finally found me, I'm impressed. I had expected it to take a lot longer for you to find me, even with all the clues I left you, such as the book you found in professor Hawkins house. After all, you do have Wheeler on you team." the man said, revealing his face from behind the shadows. The hunters all let out a loud gasp, shocked at who they were now faced with.

"See guys," Joey said, somehow managing to make jokes at a time like this. "Told ya it was Kaiba."
