So, since my computer is down, I'm going to give you guys a preview, or at least a summary of what my next chapter will be. I've got the idea in my head, now all I have to do is apply that idea to paper. Here's how it will go…..

Alexis and Dracula finally make it to the castle, but first they meet with Vladislaus's trustworthy slave, Igor. As Alexis looks around the castle walls and through the rooms (Dracula gives her a tour of the castle) she feels something strange, a memory almost.

That's all I can give you right now, seeing as I need to work on scholarships. But, I will also leave you with some of my poetry. I hope you like them.

Yours truly:

-Perrette Amelais-

I promise, I will write a new chapter. It's just, my dad's been on my computer so much that he broke the plug-in! I know, I know, he's stupid, right? Well, I think so. Also, if any of my fans have a myspace...please contact me at That's the link to my myspace. I hope you guys like it. I've got bunches of friends on it! Well, bye, and hugs and kisses.

LOVE YOUandBYE

The Looking Glass

A tourniquet wrapped

Around my wrist,

Needles blast into

My pulsating veins;

As the "money" strums

Away on his guitar,

The hopeless melody

Of forgiveness plays

Its bittersweet tune

Plays its way into my mind,

And soon I find myself

Floating away

The cross between

My breasts is waving

Back and forth to his

Tune, and as the

Insulin runs through

My body, his tune soothes

The part of me that

Wants to run

Wants to leave

Take the keys to my

Car, start the engine,

And head for Santa Fe

There's a run in my

Nylon hoes; the heels

Of my boots are rusted,

And now, the diamond

Encrusted cross I once

Proudly wore, is

Dully decomposing

How can I turn time back?

Back to when my job

Wasn't selling myself

I want it to go away,

But I'm addicted,

Addicted to this pleasure,

To this pain; to this selfless

Lifestyle where the only

Thing left for me to do

Is die

Two birds with one stone

Sunset soon

Over the hills

The sun was

Shining dimly

My eyes were

Cradling your beauty

As the shadows

Lurked behind

The grassy plains

Set ahead before,

And the darkness

Nearing soon,

You walked beside

Me, to and fro

While the distant melodies

Of daytime departed

We were created,

Created as one,

By the brilliance of

The evening light,

Combined to produce

Pastel colors

Brighter than any other;

The sun envied us

The wind against

My hair; the

Orange-colored sky,

Wonderfully, one of

The greatest things;

Reaching the top

Of the hill;

Cold, earthy winds

Forcing against us

Our hands held on

To one another,

Promising to

Never let go

Your eyes gazed

Upon my face,

As you expressed

Your love for me,

Telling me that

You'd never leave,

Telling me that

You'd be there forever,

That you'd love

Me always

It wasn't so

The sermon that

Sunday morning,

A betrayal, stabbing

My chest,

The lies you spoke, the

Feelings you expressed,

All wasting away, inside

Your hollow shell

Where will you be when I need you?

Leaving so soon; away

From this world

Am I to never see you again?

To take the dagger that

Pierced your skin

And fiercely thrust

It in his chest

A thousand times

Would do the job,

Yet it would never

Cure my pain,

For a life without you,

Would be a life

Without spreading

My feet in the sand,

Or watching the sunset,

Or slowly tasting the

Sweetest wine

The plans that I

Had set out,

No longer include you

I expected to build a house

With my concrete,

But now my

Foundation is eroding,

And I'm falling away

And you still smile –

The way you always did

Even in your casket, you

Acquire no pale complexion

Your peachy skin

Still has its way with me,

And your blue eyes

Still see through my soul

However, your eyes

Aren't as they were,

They're sullen;

Almost languid,

And each time I press my

Hand upon your temple,

The moroseness of its

Bittersweet resolve

Causes my body to cringe

It should've been me,

Not you, in your prime;

I wish that it were me,

For I've seen what life

Can do and I've seen?

Betrayal and pain

Connected together,

So why, why can you not stay

With me and do the same?

Why do you leave me here?

Here to relive my worst fears?

I want to hate you, but

I cannot, for you did nothing
