Disclaimer: Man, these things are pointless; nevertheless, I will still say what I have to. I do not own Dracula. I own Alexis Dracaena, her grandmother, the maid, and her followers. I'm so happy. I got a $50 gift certificate to best buy from my dad for Christmas, and I bought three amazing things. I got a Beautiful Mind with Russell Crowe, Quills, with Kate Winslet, and Death by Degrees, a Tekken Spin-off game. The controls are really hard to control in it, but it's still fun to play.

I'm really getting discouraged. I'm pretty sure that the people that read my story liked it. But, I really need those reviews. Please. I need your reviews. I don't care if the only thing you say is cool, just give me something to work with. I live off my reviews, and I put those reviews in my stories. So, please be kind and review. I might make you a character in my story.

Also, I recieved another review - another great REVIEW! All thank's to Lady Eli!

I thought that the first chapter couldn't be topped...then I saw your second and third chapters! This just keeps getting better and better! I can't find anything in particular that isn't perfect, and the story is just so well written! I'm looking forward to many more wonderful chapters!

Thanks for mentioning my story! I don't think it's as good as yours (by far), but I am glad that you mentioned it!

Lady Eli

Thank's ELI!

Me: Okay, another chapter…yippee

Dracula: You know, you suck.

Me: How come?

Dracula: You said I'd be in the last chapter, and then you lied to me!

Me: Oh, well I didn't know how to put you in there, so I foreshadowed it.

Dracula: Excuses, excuses.

Me: What! I'm telling the truth!

Dracula: You are not! You promised me that I would be in that chapter.

Me: Okay…calm down big boy. Does vamp need a time-out?

Dracula: A time-out!

Me: Yep

Dracula: Do you think me a child?

Me: Well, you sure are acting like one.

Dracula: It is you who is the child

Me: Nah, I think it's you

Dracula: Nope, it's you

Me: You

Dracula: You

Me: You, you cute little vamp

Dracula: YOU!

Me: YOU! I could do this all day.

Dracula: And I could do this forever…I have all the time in the world.

Me: As do I. In the world of fiction, time is non-existent.

Dracula: Well….I'm dead

Me: 0.0…….Uhhh, okay.

Dracula: I got you! You're speechless.

Me: Whatever….on with the story!


After fixing her face and drying herself, Alexis walked out of her bathroom and to her bed. Neatly folded on her bed were her work dress and her faux coiffure (She had to wear a wig at her job). Assuming that the maid had done this as penance for burning her eyes out with the steamed tub, she completely forgot about dismissing her from her position and began to dress.

An embroidered, silk and lacy white gown – one with a hoop skirt – is what she wore. And her body – her sweet, slender body fit it perfectly; that, however, could only be seen through the eyes of another, for she viewed herself differently. Even though she was beautiful; even though she was breathtaking, she couldn't view herself as such. But, today was a good day. She only looked at herself in the mirror and sighed. She thought that she looked fat.

Alexis: (Looking over at a large grandfather clock next to the window)

I still have time to eat with grandmother.

Placing her coiffure on, she walked to the door leading out to the hallway and walked out. She was glad that today was a good day. If it were any other day, then she would be slouching around; if it were, in fact, any other day, then she would never eat breakfast with her grandmother. She hardly even got to eat lunch with her, so the only time that she got to spend with her was dinner. And, by the time she gets home for dinner, her grandmother's already in bed. She walked down the spiral staircase, and then she walked into the kitchen.

Alexis: Grandmother?

She looked around the kitchen, and then she found her grandmother sitting at the table.

Alexis: Good morning Grandmother Eloise.

Sitting down at the table, she placed a napkin upon her lap and stared down at her plate. She smiled greedily, seeing all the food that was there. There were eggs, bacon, ham, toast, and crumpets. Finally, she was able to eat a good breakfast. Maybe that's why she was bitchy every time she got to work. She had heard the other girls that worked there talking about how she always moaned and complained about the job. In fact, they tried to get her fired once; it didn't work though.

Alexis: (Grabbing her fork)

Grandma Eloise, this meal is divine.

(Stabbing the eggs with her fork and biting into them)

Truly delicious; did Edgar make this?

Eloise: That horrid cook! Goodness no! I fired him two weeks ago.

That was weird. But, it was possible that he was fired for she hardly ever ate at the house.

Alexis: (Swallowing her food)

Who made it then?

Eloise: The maid. Who else would do it?

Alexis: The maid!

Quickly, Alexis spit out her food and took the napkin on her lap and wiped her mouth.

Alexis: Yes, I think I'm done eating now.

Eloise: Bad food?

Alexis: No…..not really.

(Standing up)

Well, I'm off to work. Glad to have eaten breakfast with you grandmother.

Her grandmother looked scared for a moment. It was kind of funny to see an old woman gasp, but it wasn't anything new. Alexis had seen this expression on her grandmother's face once before. Then, her grandmother spoke.

Eloise: (Shaking her head)

Alexis, my dear, I do wish you would stay.

Now that was weird. Her grandmother never asked her that type of question. She'd usually get all anxious and scared because she forgot to mention something frivolous such as not cleaning her tub; today, however, was different.

Alexis: How come?

Eloise: Miguel Bonaparte, that man who lives two houses away from us, said that he saw wolves last night. I don't want you to get hurt.

Alexis: (Laughing)

I'll be fine Grandmother. Besides, work isn't that far. And I'm sure that those wolves that he spotted won't attack in the city.

(Walking over to her grandmother and kissing her on the cheek)

Now, I'm going to go to work. I'll see you tonight….or tomorrow morning. Bye.

Eloise: (Nodding her head)

Yes dear, good bye.

And that was it. Alexis walked towards the front door and left for work.


Hi! It's me again. I know, it's been a while since my last update, but I've been super busy. And now that school is back, my updates will be longer and longer. The fact that I've got scholarships and ACT'S; it's not going to be good. I've got a BUSY schedule.

PLEASE REVIEW! I'M DYING HERE. I KNOW THAT MY STORY IS GOOD, AND I KNOW THAT PEOPLE ARE READING IT, BUT I NEED YOUR REVIEWS. I LIVE OFF OF YOUR REVIEWS, AND WHEN I DON'T GET ANY, I CRY! BYE.
