Chapter 3 Setting in and Plans

Brita came in with a tray of food for Victoria who ate it as soon as Brita put it down on the bed next to her. Brita began to speak

"You...You were pretty brave outthere, I've never seen anyone do that not since Anna Valerious died" Victoira stopped eating and said

"But?" and Brita continoued

"Yes, I know about how Dracula was killed and how Anna Valerious died because I read the story from books" so Victoria finished her dinner and Brita left with the tray while

Victoria went to sleep, dreaming of her father story.

Meanwhile in Castle Dracula

Dracula stood up on the bottom of his coffin as the ice around broken and smashed while his servants around became quiet and on the ceiling was Aleera who waits for her Master,

Dracula screams as bats fly around him before he lands on the ground then walks to the wall before walking up it while saying

"Why can't they just leave us alone? We never kill more than our fill. And less than our share. Can they say the same? Did I not stress how important it was to be finished with that Victoria-woman before she distroyes what we are trying to create!", It's important that we make that woman a bride" Aleera shocked, appalled says

"Do I mean so little to you? have you no heart?" Dracula shouts "No" before jumped to the ground while saying

"No! I have no heart, I feel no love. Nor fear, nor joy, nor sorrow. I am hollow... and I will live forever" Dracula began to feel sad and alone

"Oh my lord, it's not so bad" Aleera says as she feels sadness for her master then all of an sudden he starts to laugh and then says

"I'm at war with the world and every living soul in it!..." All of the Dwergi looked at Dracula as he continoued "But soon the final battle will begin. I must find out who our new visitor is"

then Aleera jumped to the ground, couple meters from Dracula while shouting "No" and then walks steady and slowly towards Dracula as she says

"No, I can't allow her live and have you, I won't" but Dracula roared at her with his eyes bright blue and his teeth sharp and Aleera flew back and hid behind a pillar, cowering

then Dracula says

"No, no, no. Do not fear me, everybody else fears me. Not my brides" Aleera walks forward towards her master and smothers him with kisses as he wraps his arms around her, then he looked up and said as he along with Aleera moving back

"All of you, kill the Vampire Hunters" the Dwergi's obeyed and both Dracula, Aleera became ice.

The next morning

Victoria woke up and got changed into white blouse, black corset, long stretch black trouser and long black high heels boots before going downstairs and bumping into the man who shot Dracula,

"Goodmorning, Victoria" he said happy but Victoira didn't like it so she ignored him and said back

"Goodmorning" she walked past him and met with Brita and her husband Thomas then they sat down as they all 3 began to talk about Dracula and his bride Aleera. Victoria took notes about Dracula and Aleera, after the talk, she left to train herself into getting ready to fight Dracula if she ever meets him again.

The next couple of weeks were Victoria training and she manage not give up while it snowed and rained , she was reminded by Brita that All Hallows Eve was coming up and the village celebrated it without Dracula or Aleera around.

23th October

Dracula woken a week before All Hallows Eve, he asked Aleera to see him, Dracula stood and Aleera appeared before her master,

"Aleera before All Hallows Eve, I want you to bring that woman to Budapest so I finish her right there" this pleased Aleera deeply and she ran up to her master before kissing him and then ran off to complete the task.

however Dracula was thinking different.

30th October

Victoria had just finished for the day of her training and walked back to the inn not before she heard something, as she turned. Aleera stood and lifted her arm then smacked Victoria who hit her head on a large massive rock before Aleera turned into her bat form then grab Victoria by her foot with her own and flew towards the direction of Budapest, however Victoria screamed "HELPP" before blacking out and this brought everyone out as Aleera flew higher and Brita came out, gasping.

"Oh my God" she says

no-one could do nothing as Aleera carried Victoria away, leaving a menacing laughter behind. The ride lasted all night before Aleera got to Budapest and she made it into her master's summer palace, there she left Victoria in the guest room and left to see her master Dracula.

31th October

Budapest, Dracula Summer Palace

The room full of guest, dancing and laughing while drinking and enjoying the performance going on. Then the song ended and everyone began to clapped before they got into position and then the woman in a black dress with a veil over half her face and long black gloves upto her above elbows, began to sing as she turned around.

Victoria with her eyes closed, wearing Coral Duponi crimson ballgown with boned bodice and trained skirt featuring trim of dimensional braid and embroidery hooked onto her long White glove finger with her gloves reaching her above albows, mask with crimson ruby colored stones and her crown gold with design, crimson-shiny earrings attached to her ears, stood in front of Dracula who wore his entire outfit: All black Hussar style coat with black millitary frog closures, black cossack style coat with braid closures, copper/Aubergine crystal sheer lining with signed gold cape on top and a gold mask on his handsome face, ready to dance began with both their right hands connecting and then they turned to spin before spinning again with Victoria back against Dracula back, his right hand on her right hip and her left arm\hand outstretch with his left hand gently grabbed onto then she turned to his right as she outstretched before walking back however Dracula outstretched his arm to only wrap it around her waist and pull her really close to him with the only sound coming out of her mouth is a gasp. Dracula pulled his mask off with his left before taking off Victoria's with his right hand, he then pulled her closer before taking her lips with his own but Victoria opened her eyes and muffed a noise of shock and disgust before Dracula pulled away only to dip her forcibly and fast, hard then said

"How does it feel to be a puppet on my string?" Dracula pulled her before placing his right hand her mid back while she places her left hand on his right arm above his elbow and her right hand in his before moving as Victoria says

"I won't let you have or trade me, Count" Victoria said with disgust as she danced back then forward towards Dracula as they both spinned as Dracula began to talk

"I have no intention of trading you, And if I know the Vampire Hunter, which I do...

he is not planning on making a trade, either, Neither of us has ever settled for half" Then Dracula dipped Victoria forcibly again with her gasping again from the roughness.

Out of nowhere a group of hooded men appeared above them, wearing masks and costumes underneath. the one in front next to the taller one said, pointing below to Dracula and Victoria,

"Ah, There they are" Dracula turned Victoria around as she says

"You make my skin crawl" she said with disgust before Dracula pressed his face next to Victoria left side neck and said

"This is not all I can do with your skin" he then mouth/kisses her neck as Victoria turns her head away and tries to shake the feeling off. the tall one breaths before seeing an acrobat breath fire then blow out before looking up to 2 acrobats swinging onto each other swing then he says

"Thomas, I need you and the others to do something" Thomas looked at the tall one, in horror before saying

"I'm not gonna to like this, am I" The tall one smirked. Both Dracula, Victoria and everyone spinned in the dance before Dracula and Victoria danced in front of a large mirror as Dracula dipped Victoria who looked at the mirror to only see herself in it and nobody else which she discovered this moment that everyone in the room are Vampires.

"Don't we make a lovely couple?" he said to her as he looked down at her before she said

"Oh my god" as he pulled her up, he said to her

"I'm looking for a new bride, Victoria, someone strong...beautiful" Victoria confused tried to think but no vail as they both rejoined the dance.

The tall one took off his cape before killing the red acrobat vampire and then swinging forward while down below Dracula pulled Victoria to him as he said

"One brief moment of pain and we can be together forever"

The tall one then jump onto the other acrobat swing as he rolled into the air before grabbing it meanwhile Thomas looks at the fire-breathing acrobat. Dracula pulls Victoria

with his right hand slid around her waist and his other hand pulled her right arm over his left shoulder then Victoria slid her right hand down his chest as she said

"You have no heartbeat" She looked into Dracula's eyes then he dip her slowly onto his knee as he say

"Perhaps...maybe it just needs to be rekindle" then he trace her vein, through her revealing breast-swells then onto her throat where he leans back where he opens his eyes that now change to light blue and his top-row teeth become fangs while his bottom are sharp razors meanwhile the tall one swings up only to cut the rope with one slice with his knife and swing down as Victoria gasps and see's him,

Then all of a sudden Thomas ran forward as the fire-breathing breath in then blow out as he pushed with he accidently blows fire onto Dracula who immediatley dropped Victoria and walked over to the vampire as everyone backingout then thrown the vampire as the tall one grabbed Victoria as she got up before swinging up.

He let go her as they landed on the balcany before shaking Victoria,

"Victoria, Victoria, wake up" Victoria shook her head before she made a sound of anger as she pulled off her earrings and then tries to pull her hair free from the elegent bun but only her front bangs are free, she realize that she now free from Dracula control.

"Victoria,...Oh Victoria...Oh Victoria" both of them walk forward to see Dracula saying Victoria name and without his cape on, thats on the fall burning, the tall one goes to pull Victoria but then the doors open and see the man Victoria met who was nasty and horrible to her, pulled before Dracula to only reveal that he's a werewolf under Dracula's control and Dracula turns around to face the tall one and Victoria with a smirk on his face before walking forward and saying

"Ladies and Gentleman, I'll give to you...BORIS VON VALERI " Dracula shouted with everyone taking off their masks to reveal their vampire selfs and Boris shouts "RUN" to Victoria but she grabs a spike-ball-chain weapon which she waves but Boris grabs her and runs with "COME ON" and everyone ran after them while Dracula stayed, they ran up the stairs where they locked the doors and met up with Thomas who kept going on about "Now I know whats it for, Now I know whats it for", in his hands some kind of light chemical thing which Victoria knows about before they jump through the colour glass window with Thomas leaving behind his creation but the thing went off and every vampire was killed except Dracula and Aleera, the werewolf.

The three of them swam to the ground where they saw Dracula and Aleera in their bat forms along with their known laughs before they met up with the rest of the group and Boris turned around to Victoria who is wet, cold and tired however she grabs a weapon from the carriage and turns around to go fight Dracula only for her to be turned around and gased by Boris who catches her and puts her in the carriage as the rest of them get in and the carriage moves to travel back to Transylvania, Vaseria.
