(A/N Chapter 2! Sorry Chapter one was so short. I'll try to make this one longer. Thank you also for the kind reviews, I appreciate it. Now, on with the story!)

"Amy, what are you doing here?" exclaimed Sonic.

Sitting in the terminal was a pink hedgehog with a dangerously short, red dress and matching boots. Her hair was kept out of her face by a red headband. Standing next to her was a cute orange rabbit with a dress on and a chao floating around her head. The rabbit also had long floppy ears that flung around with her body when she turned to look at Sonic and his friends.

Amy took one glance at Sonic, ran up to him, and hugged him with a grip that could squeeze the air out of anybody.

"Amy let go you're suffocating me!" Sonic wheezed.

"Sonic what are you doing here? Where are you going? Did you miss me? I missed you!" Amy was a bit over ecstatic, as you can hopefully guess.

"We won a trip to Transylvania; our plane should be leaving in a couple of minutes. Where are you going?" asked Tails.

"Well that's odd; we won a free trip to Transylvania too! We got the letter in the mail a couple of days ago." replied the rabbit, whose name was Crème.

"What a coincidence, do you think……….." Tail's words faded from his lips.

"Think what Tails?" Knuckles inferred.

"Oh, its nothing. Come on, the plane leaves in a few minutes, we don't want to miss our flight!" Tails exclaimed.

The group ran towards their plane after showing their tickets and dropping off their luggage. They mounted the plane and were directed by an attendant to where the owners of where they were staying sat. The group rested down on the chairs and fastened their seatbelts as they rose into the air. Tails noticed that the man sitting across from him was rather pale and looked as though he was starving. The other owner was a woman with dark brown hair and also looked pale and starving. Tails hoped they had food.

As soon as the plane leveled out and the captain announced they could take their seatbelts off, the woman smiled at them all.

"We have two other winners on the plane that got buckled in somewhere else on the plane, they should be here shortly." she said in a cheerful, but rather cold voice.

"Ah, speak of the devil, our two other contestants!" the man replied in the same cold voice as the woman's.

Two people that were only too familiar to Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles appeared next to them on the plane.

"Rouge and Shadow? What the hell are you doing here?" Knuckles asked rather abruptly.

"The same reason you are, I won the contest and decided to bring Shadow with me." Rouge answered.

"Brought me, more like dragged." Shadow mumbled.

"Please sit down everybody, I take it you are familiar with each other. That is good, you shouldn't mind staying in the same castle together then." said the woman with a wide grin.

"Castle?" They all said in unison.

"Oh yes, a castle. In fact it is the very castle in which Dracula himself was said to live." replied the man.

"B-b-but, wasn't Dracula a……" Tails gulped loudly "A vampire?"

"Oh heavens no child. That is nothing but a legend, a rumor, and a misunderstanding."

"Oh yes, quite a misunderstanding. Dracula's real name was Vlad Tepes. He was born in 1431 and died in 1476. He ruled Wallachia which is now known as Southern Romania from 1456 to his death. He was often called Dracul, which meant son of the dragon. It came from the emblem of his father which was what else but a dragon." the man added on to the woman's statement.

(A/N I would like to thank Arthur's web for the information on Dracula thank you.)

"That's so exhilarating; I hope Mr. Vlad doesn't haunt the halls of this castle." Rouge said sarcastically.

"There are rumors, but I doubt that there is even a single spirit in this place." the woman replied.

"Enough chit-chat. My name is Lucius Dracunala, you may call me Lucius if you'd like. This is my wife, Veronica. She lived in the castle when she was a young girl. If you have any questions, it would be best that you ask her." Lucius said.

"Yes, we are very happy to have you in our home. We don't have many visitors. We were preparing for your arrival all day. I have been tending to our gardens for the past couple of weeks; I haven't worked in it for so long."

The attendant walked by with a tray of food.

"I have some lunch for you, dig right in. We will pick it up for you later." the attendant said as she set the platters on a large table that she pulled from what they thought was the side of the plane. There was a clear spot where they could see through the window when the table was pushed up.

"We don't want anything, thank you anyways." both Veronica and Lucius said.

The attendant rolled away with the cart smiling as she left.

"Are you sure you don't want anything Mrs. And Mr. Dracunala, you look famished!" Tails said with a worried look on his face.

"Oh no we are quite fine, we prefer…different kinds of food. This plane food only nauseates us." said Veronica.

"Yes, well, we will leave you here to converse with each other for a while." said Lucius.

With that, Lucius and Veronica stood up and walked away towards the front of the plane.

"Well that was weird." said Tails.

"I don't see how, Veronica and Lucius seem courteous enough." shrugged Sonic.

"Weren't you paying attention? Veronica and Lucius were both really pale, but Veronica said she was outside for weeks caring for her garden!" Tails said in a low tone.

"So what, she probably has a conservatory instead of an outdoor garden, anyways, that doesn't explain why Lucius is pale." replied Rouge.

"But have you seen them? They look like they are abut to die of hunger, and they refused to eat!" Tails protested.

"Yeah, but they said that the food nauseated them. What's so weird about that?" replied Knuckles.

"It still seems weird though, like there is something they aren't telling us……."

"Give it a rest Tails, its not like they are out to get us or anything, just relax!" said Amy.

Crème stood moved a bit closer to Tails and smiled.

"Yeah Tails, just relax, we all will be fine. We should have fun while we can." Crème said trying to encourage Tails.

"I guess so; I'm just a bit paranoid that's all." Tails replied.

The rest of the day passed quickly. The group talked on and on about what they had been doing lately. Shadow didn't say anything about the matter, no surprise there. It had soon gotten late and everybody was tired. Rouge was leaned back in her chair with her eyes closed and her ears drooped. Sonic and Knuckles were both asleep on the spot and Amy was leaning against the back of her chair snoring silently.

Crème yawned quietly and rested her head lightly on Tail's lap.

Tails blushed so much; his cheeks were redder than Knuckles. He himself fell quickly into a deep sleep and soon was sleeping peacefully. Shadow was still awake and as alert as ever.

(A/N awwwwww, Tails blushed! Anyways, please review and give your opinions. You know you love to. I'll post the next chapter as soon as I finish it.)
