I only own my OCs, Taylor and the villain, I do not own Tess, Vin, Qwark, Kit, Bentley, Penelope, or Carmelita.
A/N: Like I said, I don't own the OST, all rights go to the game creators.

Inside the castle, the group got out of the SUV, while Carmelita got out of the Prison Truck. They all looked around, noticing they were in some sort of lobby. They soon heard a high pitch sound, as if a speaker was about to turn on, and the group heard the voice they knew is the criminal mastermind behind the entire adventure, who said, "Velcome, Velcome, my friends to my castle."
Taylor glared, and asked, "Where are you, Nosferatu?"
Nosferatu groaned, and replied, "Those stupid law enforcers, they alvays get my name wrong." Everyone was soon confused, as Nosferatu continued, "The name is not Nosferatu, the name is Nosfearatu. Reason, is because I vow to be a fearpire, meaning I am a vampire who feeds on fear of others."
"Oh, well that makes a bit sense," Penelope said.
"Indeed," Nosfearatu said, paused and said, "If you vish to face me, you have to face my friends, who are guarding keys that will open the center door."
Bentley looked at the center doors at the side opposite at them, and said, "Seems Nosfearatu is going old school, for we need so far, judging by the locks, four Treasure Keys!"
"Treasure Keys?" Qwark asked.
Bentley replied, "Those were used when Sly was trying to take on the Fiendish Five, which we know since we have two of them, four of them had points that were locked, and to unlock them, Sly needed Treasure Keys."
"Oh, that's it," Qwark said.
Kit soon said, "As what Nosfearatu said, there are four doors, which might've been those shadowed figures from Taylor's vision."
Vin soon appears and said, "These doors even have symbols that can show what could be a clue to who they are."
The group see the symbols above the doors, the door farthest to the center door on Taylor's left as she looks at them had a martini glass for the symbol. The door next to in close to the center door had a whip and a red hood for its symbol. The third door next to the center door had a revolver and a cowboy hat for its symbol. The final door next to the third door had a crown with a disco ball behind it.
Taylor soon said, "So all I need to do is defeat these guys, get the treasure keys, unlock the door, and be closer to defeat Nosfearatu, but before I do that, I should talk to you guys, and our friends in the truck."
Taylor soon sees Penelope and Bentley, and asked, "How are you two doing?"
"We're doing fine, Taylor," Bentley replied.
"We just hope whoever these guys that are through those doors, they will be defeated," Penelope said.
Taylor soon sees Vin and Kit, and asked, "You two are okay after that road trip, right?"
"Of course, we are," Kit replied.
"We just hope these guys will try and go easy on us," Vin said.
Taylor soon said, "I doubt that Vin." She soon sees Qwark leaning on the SUV, and said, "You really did some great driving Qwark, if it wasn't for you, we wouldn't be here."
"Thank you, Taylor," Qwark said.
Taylor looks at Tess, who was on her shoulder, and said, "So we still have a few obstacles in the way, my friend."
Tess soon said, "Yeah, but we've overcame many that might've been worse, these obstacles will be no different." Taylor nodded and continued around the lobby.
Taylor soon goes to Carmelita, who was guarding the truck, and asked, "Still guarding our friends, Carmelita?"
"Of course, I am. You'll never know what these guys would do to escape," Carmelita replied to Taylor.
"I doubt that Inspector," Taylor said, causing Carmelita to be surprised, as Taylor said, "I know some of them, but mostly Tsao would try to escape, but the others don't wish to, like Ms. Decibel and Arpeggio, or I earned their trust due to my good natured and talents, like Mz. Ruby and Don Octavio."
Carmelita thought, and said, "Very well, but I will talk to them on your behalf."
Taylor soon said, "Very well," she looks at the truck, and said, "Forgive me guys."
She sees some of them, which they nodded in agreement.
Taylor soon went to the doors, then went near the door with the martini symbol, when Nosfearatu said, "I vill soon give you some intel of the person that you and your friends vill be facing me, vhile testing your skill vith the abilities you acquired in your past adventures. So, I vish you luck, you and your friends are going to need it."
Bentley soon said, "Taylor, I think I should be going with you on this first villain, who know what this person will be using."
Taylor smiled, and said, "Thanks Bentley." She, Bentley, and Tess soon looked and walked at the first door.
Sorry for the late chapter, so anyway, I am planning to go old school ways of how Taylor will be going to take on Nosferatu, or should I say Nosfearatu. So, who will Taylor, Tess, and Bentley will be facing now? Anyway, if you're reading this, thanks for reading, and thank YouTuber AlbirdVampPrinceMK2, who is the music I used for inspiration.
