Amber and Jenna walked toward the abandoned windmill that still layed in a phile of burned wood. Amber pulled out the journal, her notes, and another book on the history of Romania. "Ok, Amber, what's with the history book that looks exactly like...ohhhhhhhh...I get it." Amber smirked and put the notes deep inside her left pocket, hopefully no one would find them. Jenna crossed her arms and shivered as a tiny raindrop fel on her nose. "I think it's going to rain..maybe we should head back." Amber looked at her friend and said, "Yea I know..but not before we get rid of the book."
"How are we going to do that?"
"I don't know. We can't burn it. We can't...do anything to it otherwise we're screwed." "Amber we already are." "Good point." Amber looked at the journal and the history book; they both were the same size, same color. The only thing that really made them not look alike was the red line going vertical on the spine of the history book. Dracula won't notice at all. He hasn't seen this book in years. How the hell will he notice? Well if he reads it... Amber sighed. This was going to be tough. If they gave the journal to him he would either kill them or let them go; if they switched the book and gave it to him and left Romania before he would notice maybe they would be saved...or they would be dead within two seconds. This was going to be a hard decision.
"I don't know what to do! Should we completely destroy it? Should we switch and run for our lives?" "Ummm...the second one."
"Then what about the book? Are we just going to bring it with us? What happens if he figures it out?" "I don't know Amber, we have to think of something. I know! You see that hole in the middle of the windmill? Well, we can throw it down there without burning it at all! He'll never find it!"
"Yea that's unless he reads our minds." "Oh...right." Amber stared at the journal, wondering if it was such a good idea, but right then and there, she threw it down the hole. Jenna stared at her all bug eyed, mouthing, 'I can't believe you did that!' The journal fell into the dark abyss, hitting random objects, an when it finally reached the bottom, it sounded like it had landed in water. "Com'on Jenna. Let's get out of here before they find us and the journal. Hopefully a few things were destroyed by the water."

"What did you say?!" Dracula spun around meeting Daniel's frightened eyes. " I don't think you heard me clearly. WHAT DID YOU SAY!?" Dracula's voice loudly echoed making the trees shake, and making Daniel fall backwards onto the dirty ground. He crawled away from the vampire before him, who was really pissed off and slowly coming toward him.
"You know Daniel, if I don't find that journal, and if they don't give it to me, there will be serious consequences?" Daniel just stared up at the Count, who was staring back at him, his eyes red with fury. "It would be such a shame if the girls had to pay for something that should have been found by you. Amber is a very attractive girl." The count smiled evily as Daniel continued to back away saying, "No, no! Don't even think about it!"

Amber and Jenna walked toward Daniel's house. Jenna was freaking out whsipering, "Oh my God. Oh my God..." They heard Dracula and knew that Daniel was in deep shit right now. "Com'on. We have to get to him before Dracula decides to cut his head off." As they came closer Verona appeared infront of them. She had decided to get away from the converstation her master was having. "Well well. My master has been looking for you."
Jenna gulped and waved slightly to the bride, sheepishly smiling. "But of course the journal is his first priority tonight," the bride hissed. Amber and Jenna looked at each other and ran for it, straight into Daniel and Dracula, who were both looking at them. The two girls backed away until they bumped into Aleera and Marishka. "So nice of you to drop in," Aleera cackled.
"Give me the journal, Amber." She spun around to see the Count standing behind her, coming closer. She knew he wasn't in a good mood, so she pulled out the "journal" and handed it to Dracula. "Here. You happy now?"
Dracula took the journal and stared at it, then to Amber. Something wasn't right, he was sort of hoping for a confrentation or something along that line, but she just handed it to him. The Count smiled and turned to Daniel slightly. "I didn't know it was going to be this easy, but of course there is a price to pay." Daniel's eyes went wide as the count slowly turned around and grabbed Amber by her waiste.
"You're coming with me, my love," he whispered into her ear. In a split second he flew away with Amber in his arms, the brides right behind him. Jenna stood there, dumbfounded. She knew Amber was going to be in big trouble if he found out quickly. "I KNEW WE WERE SCREWED!" Jenna screamed. "Yea...I agree with you on that."
