Amber felt uneasy, and very very awkward. She sat back down on the chair, trying to calm herself while Daniel and Vlad were talking. Soon they came into the living room, when Amber noticed she put the book behind a bible that layed near the fireplace. She got up and said goodnight to the both of them, and could feel Vlad watching her, making her turn cold. Amber dressed into her Victoria's Secret sweatpants and red long-sleeved shirt, and went to bed, hoping that they wouldn't find the book.
When Amber went upstairs, that was when Dracula's whole personality changed. He grabbed Daniel by the collar of his yellow polo, slamming him up against the wall. Dracula's eyes were a fiery red, and his tight grip was nearly killing the man. Daniel fought for air, fought for his life. He didn't understand why the count was doing this. "Where's the book, Daniel?" "What book?" he spat. Dracula let him go, slowly pacing the floor, his back turned to Daniel. "What was that for, Vlad? What book? I don't understand." "Clearly you have no idea what is going on. Your...adoptive daughter came into the castle and stole a very precious book that I have been searching for, for 200 long years!" "Well, then go find it." "I can't. It's near something blessed, that's all I know. You better get it back to me by Christmas Eve tomorrow night." "But what happens if I can't find it?" "Uhh...you imbical! Then give it to me by Christmas day. I give you only two days, Daniel, two. If you still can't find it, then you shall pay dearly for she is your responsibility." "Yes," he gulped, "Master." "Good. I bid you goodnight, and remember...two days."
The door magically opened at his master's will, and he disappeared into the night. Daniel sighed. He couldn't believe what he had gotten himself into. He sighed, and fell into the same chair Amber had sat in, holding his face in his hands. "What am I going to do? This is all my fault. I should never have met the man, or vampire...whatever," he said to himself. Daniel went upstairs walking right past the bible...and the journal.
It was Christamas Eve or the day of it, and tonight was the party of al parties. Daniel had asked Amber for decoration tips and his wife baked the cookies and all that warm sugary stuff. Amber and Jenna were at the rock. Amber told her friend of the night before, and her friend came up with this conclusion : "Aw, he's just a loser looking for a girl, duh, that's easy." Amber just stared at her friend and shook her head. They had both gotten their dresses for the party, but Amber wasn't so sure about wearing it.
"Com'on, there's nothing bad about wearing it. You looked great in it when you tried it on." Amber blushed, "Thanks, but..." "Just drop it." Amber shrugged and kept walking. It was almost time to get ready.
Daniel was panicking. He had to find that book. The only problem was that he had no idea of what it looked like. He ran around the house, and when he looked up at the clock, he gave a small shriek. He was going to be late. He went right upstairs and started to get dressed.
Amber came home and found the book still under the bible, and brought it upstairs with her. She went upstairs too, and hid the book somewhere she hoped no one would find.
