Chapter 3: Suspicions/ A Vampire? A Demon? A Witch?

They missed it! They missed the chance to catch the vampire who has been feeding on random civilians. The thought of failing began to frustrate Carmilla. Only the girls ventured to the crime scene, because Alucard decided it would be pointless of them to go, and that it wouldn't be any fun for him. Carmilla just paced around the blood drenched crime scene, looking at the dismembered body. She stooped down to examine one of the victims closer. It was a girl with brown hair and green eyes, and her skin was pale due to lack of blood. Carmilla examined the bite mark on her neck and sniffed around her. Nothing was different about this case; it was the same as all the others. She stood to her feet and dusted off. When she looked around at the dismembered and eviscerated human beings she felt something was off. They looked like legit vampires attacks, but she couldn't shake this feeling that she had. "Amelia let's go!" Amelia jumped at the sound of Carmilla's voice. The two girls rushed over to Carmilla and stood at attention in front of her. Carmilla looked at them then turned to walk away, still frustrated.

While exiting the scene a foul odor hit Carmilla's nose. It hit her unexpectedly, violently, surprisingly, but yet very familiar. She stopped in place and her eyes flashed a light as if it were going to project her thoughts. Wide eyed she turned to look at the girls who in response looked at her as if she had officially lost her mind. A wide smile beneath the black mask crept across her face. She stared at the girls for a minute and then turned too walked away. "come along girls…. I think I know where this case is going." Her voice flowed through the wind and reached the girls. Riding back to the manor she wore the smile the entire time, just thinking to herself. Multiple times the girls would hear her mumble words. "please explain… um….. what just happened exactly? Seras asked Amelia, she was equally confused as she was when she replied "in all honesty, I have absolutely no clue." Upon entering the manor the smile stayed on her face until she entered her room. That was the last the girls saw of her that night.

"So she's not planning to tell anyone anything about what she found?" Seras questioned helping Amelia into her room. The room was surrounded in the dark veil again. "Knowing Carmilla, we have a better chance at figuring it out ourselves." She said stepping into the room. "I heard that." Carmilla's voice echoed through the room. Amelia just entered the room and sat on the bed, with the help of Seras. "Thank you Ms. Victoria, I really appreciated your company, and your help. You are a very sweet girl." Seras just smiled and replied "You should be resting, you look tired." And she helped her onto the bed. "I am a bit. It's been a while since I have been out that long. I guess a lot of activity in general takes a lot out of me. You should rest to. I'm sincerely grateful for your help." Amelia sat up and looked at her. "don't mention it. I'll see you tomorrow I guess." Seras waved and left the room. It was quiet again and Amelia hated it this way. She wasn't a very big fan of "bed time" so she expected that most of her night would be spent looking at the wall, bored….. it was kind of depressing when she thought about it. She kind of wished something would happen, something sudden.

"Mutasd meg az igazat, segitsen nekem látni a fényt I tagadta oly sok éven át. Adja meg a választ." Carmilla chanted to herself multiple times. The Hungarian language flowed from behind her mask for about 10 minutes. She stood looking out of the window at the moon. There was something she felt was very relevant to check on….. and on top of that….. she was a bit hungry. "We are going through this again." A deep voice echoed through the room. "Alucard…. I wasn't planning to kill her. That's not how I do the people I feed from. She's already a vampire so she won't become a ghoul. "she spoke to Alucard as he materialized by her side. "it would have been nice of you to ask before you decided it was okay for yourself. And why the police girl? You could feed from any woman in England and get away with it. Carmilla smiled at Alucard's questioning. She looked out at the blood moon and thought of a way to word her feelings. "Hmph…. You of all people should know how I work. I feed from women, beautiful women, and I hate a fake. But now….. In this day in age, everyone is so prosthetic you can never tell the difference. She is real…. I like her." Carmilla smiled at him.

"And your subordinate?" Alucard questioned

"What of my subordinate?" Carmilla replied with a question.

"You don't feed from her?"

"She barely has enough strength to survive. Her blood will do me no good."

"Try as you may….. But it won't work."

"The amount of times you have said this to me." And with Carmilla's response the conversation was over.

Amelia began to feel weak and she drifted off to sleep. She dreamed she was in a dark room with candles laid out on the floor in the formation of what looked like a sacrificial circle. And in the center of the circle there was a girl. She lay on a podium posted in the middle of the floor. She looked like she was sleep…. Or dead. She approached the blonde haired girl and touched her face. Her skin felt warm so she couldn't have been dead. When she took a closer look at the girl she realized it looked like Seras Victoria, but with long hair. She felt as if something was going to happen…. Something bad. She opened her mouth to call out to the girl, but nothing came out. "Oh fuck the hell no" she thought to herself. "I have to wake her up…. We can't stay here. Something bad is going to happen" she tried to call out to the girl again, and again, and again, but her voice was gone. While she attempted to wake the girl, the room began to fill with an immense amount of angry growling. Amelia tried to pick the girl up but fail in every attempt. She started to here chants being whispered. "Vér folyik keresztül, és vér folyik ingyen" The chanter sounded like Carmilla but she had no time to think of something like that. She whipped around to find herself facing a large black cat…. With white eyes. As it started to pace back and forward the chanting continued.

"Vér folyik keresztül, és vér folyik ingyen

a kezem, blade, és agyarai

i feláldozni téged

Lelked már az enyém"

When the chanting was over she turned and looked at the girl, who wasn't there. When she turned to look at the cat she noticed the blood surrounding her mouth and nose. When she tried to move it lounged out at her…. Then she woke up. "Carmilla? No…. she… she wouldn't" She said to herself. There was a knock at the door and it mindlessly caught her off guard and startled her. "Whoooo iiiiiiis iiiit?!" she called out in a squeaky voice. She was kind of hoping it was Seras….. Or Carmilla…. Or the butler. There was a long pause before the knock came again. And she responded "This isn't right. Don't do this to me, I just had a bad dream and I'm not in the position to run…. Who is it?" she still didn't get an answer. She began to get a little irritated, so she turned around, and there Alucard stood at the other end of her bed. It was sudden and scared her, but she tried her best not to scream as he stood there looking at her and smiling, creepily. "Um….. C….. Can I help you?" she asked shuttering from the unexpected surprise. "actually… you can" his deep voice echoed through her chest as he began to slowly lean toward her. "oh…" And so marked the beginning of an interesting night.

Kayos: it's been quite the few weeks before I posted the 3rd chapter….. I has been vury bizzy… (Trying out new typing style… it is a failure). Senior year in high school is crazy. Especially when you're a senior in the fine arts department….. Then you're required to be in every show…. Stay after till 9 or 10… next year will be a lot worse for me because I do musical stuff to. That's my late story excuse and I'm sticking to … chapter 4 should be done before a 3 week period because we are on break which means no homework or school performances. I hope you enjoy the story so far please review…. I would like to hear input about the story what you liked and what you didn't like and yeah. anything to say Roman?
