Jenna and Jacob stared, wide-eyed with their mouths open. There right infront of them was Dracula kissing Amber. Neither could believe what they saw, and then they looked at each other. "Is she...?" Jenna asked slowly.
"I don't believe it...they're...kissing. This is unbelievable."
"No...it's inconcievable!"
"Jenna, do you even know what that means?"
"No, I just like using it."
"Ok..." Jacob said as he looked away back at Amber and the Count. "We can't let him..." he couldn't finish without making a gagging noise. "Can't let him do what?" And again, Jacob made the gagging noise and then finally looked up and said, "You know..." Jenna's eyes got even wider and she almost gagged. They couldn't picture Amber, a simple girl with glasses, with the Count, the total opposite of simple. "BAD IMAGE. BAD IMAGE," Jenna practically screamed, the whole room stopped and stared at them as she laughed sheepishly. Jacob was far away from her mouthing, 'I don't know her. She's nuts.'
Jenna sighed and looked over at Daniel and his wife who had completely forgotten about the situation. Jenna felt guilty that she had forgotten her best friend who was in the handsome clutches of the evil Count Dracula. Jenna was slapping herself mentally, and then she realized she was all alone in the middle of the dance floor, not a soul was near her. I guess this is what you would call karma.

Dracula stopped kissing the girl in his arms and stared deep into her eyes. He had completely forgot that she had glasses, he could care less, she looked better without them. Amber could actually see better without them, but of course, that wasn't the issue. Amber blushed a violent red and looked away, anything was better to look at than him, well not really, anyone who says otherwise is nuts themselves. Dracula gently took her chin and made her look at him, into his beautiful ice blue eyes that seemed to hold the sadness of the world. When Dracula looked into her eden eyes, a blueish green that could change to a darker blue, he saw the same. It seemed as if they were, dare I say, made for each other, but of course the problem they were dealing with was holding each back.
He leaned in for another kiss, but Amber, not really wanting to, turned her head away. She knew it was wrong, she knew he was going to do anything to make him children come to life, and she wouldn't allow it, no matter how much her feelings said to just run into his arms and never let go. The air changed around them and Dracula felt a sudden bitterness. One minute she was saying no, then kissing him, then no again, what the hell was going on? "What is it? Am I not good enough for you?" he snapped and she looked at him, all the confidence she had before was gone.
"No, it's not that it's..."
"What? That I have three brides? That I'm evil? yes I know I have them, yes I know that I am evil...but I feel soething that I have never felt before, with you. I intend to keep that feeling, no matter what."
"But I can't! No matter how much my thoughts are flooded by the idea of you! I cannot be with you, you...have those three, yes I know you're evil and you can never change, but it's the fact that you want to take over the world! Do you know what the consequences are of such an action?"
"Why should humans, mortals, like you care?! You are already destroying the world with your inventions, gases! What would change with my children coming alive for once, for once after centuries of disappiontments?! What would change?"
"Because the world, all it's life would no longer exist! There would be nothing! No flowers, no animals, no more beautiful sun sets and rises, no life! There would be no meaning to your plan, Dracula! Your children would die in a matter of years if they kill everything," she yelled, her gloved hands in fists.
"There would be no love. There will be nothing but a wasteland ruled by you."
Dracula yelled at her, but she stood there, staring right back at him, her eyes turning into blue balls of fire, while his were an electric ice blue.
"Ummm Amber," Jenna whispered a few inches away from her, "Run!"
From out of the crowd Daniel, Marissa, and Jacob ran out the door mentiong that Amber and Jenna do the same, but there was a slight problem. Dracula had grabbed her arm violently and pulled her closer to him and whispered into her ear, "I will tell you when you can go, and when I say that you'll be dead."
Amber took her glove off and slapped dracula in the face, her long nails digging into his pale skin, black blood slowly rolling down his cheeks. Jenna took her arm and they started to run as Dracula screamed to his brides, "Get them! bring her back to me!" Jenna and Amber shut the large doors an ran, but the brides ripped the door off their hinges (what an upset), as splinters of dark wood flew in all directions, one big chunk of a splinter went right into Amber's shoulder as she ran.
"Jenna! Amber! Get in!" Daniel had stolen a carriage and they entered and the horses ran off, through the forest with the brides only a few feet away. "Com'on you damn horses run!"
