Chapter 3: Dawn of the Dead Sorceress
-----
Ninety-nine bottles of beer on the wall, ninety-nine bottles of beer, you take one down, pass it around--
"Will you shut up?!" a voice boomed from the corners of finely decorated room. A pale face with red eyes and silver hair emerged from the shadows.
"WHAT are you doing?!" Robert asked, smoke practically rising from his ears.
"I'm not doing anything," the red-haired sorceress said as innocently as she can manage. "Just thinking."
"Well, think to YOURSELF!" he hissed as his brows knitted in annoyance.
"Geez, you need to cool yourself down, Robbie," Lina said, twiddling with the light blanket on her. It wasn't as though she needed it to keep her warm, her body temperature was already ice cold, but it was a habit and she didn't exactly know how to blend into the shadows yet.
'Robbie's' eyes twitched. "For the last time, it's ROBERT!"
"You really do need to calm yourself down, my dear Robert," a soft, feminine voice sounded from the same corner. Another face with red eyes emerged from the shadows next to Robert, however, this one had long brown hair. She turned to look at Lina. "And you need to rest."
"So do WE!" Robert exclaimed. "When will you teach her how to shield her thoughts, Lilith?! That's the most important thing right now or else we'll never be able to rest!"
Lilith sighed. For the past week, they had continued to make their way to MidNighte. Along the way, Lina tried to learn their ways but it was hard to let go of her human nature and inhabit another right away. In other words, it was hard as hell to make Lina Inverse become a real vampire. Lilith glanced at the thick, dark curtains and sighed again.
"Lina, dear," she started, "you really need to start becoming used to your skills. If you do not make them become a part of you, you will not survive in Our world." She made her way to Lina's side and put a cold, comforting hand on her shoulders. "We will not be able to feed you a glass of blood every night, Lina."
Lina shuddered at that. She was getting used to drinking "dead blood", her vampire companions called it, but they both insisted that she needed more nourishment from "living blood." Although, contrary to the myths and folklores, they did not have to drain their victims, Lina was still hesitant to do any such thing.
"Nor will we always have an inn to accommodate us," Lilith continued. "You must learn your new Being, Lina, then nothing will be able to control you, you will be your own Self. I know you can do that, Lina, you have potentials, you're merely holding yourself back."
It was Lina's turn to sigh, or tried to, having no need to breath anymore. She did not know how to reply. For some reason, she did not want to disappoint Lilith. She gave her a great respect she could not explain why or where it came from. But seeing the older vampire's cool and calm persona makes Lina want to be like that too. Lina wondered if that was how Amelia felt while they were traveling together. She lowered her ruby-red eyes, not being able to look at the solid red ones.
Robert made a disgusting noise breaking the awkward silence. "Why weren't you that nice to ME?"
Lilith turned her head and smiled at him. "Let's just say I learned from my mistakes."
"You didn't call me that during the battles," he grunted in return. "You're too soft on her, Lilith. With the way you're going with her, she will not learn anything for self-defense."
"That is why you are in charge of her offensive abilities," Lilith said, the same smile plastered on her face.
He smirked. "You think it wise to leave it up to me?"
Lina looked from one to the other, for once having nothing to say.
"Like you said, she will not learn anything from me that Others will not have surpassed," she replied. "Besides, you know that I'm much better in defensive abilities." She thin lips curved into a cocky smile, which, in Lina's opinion, did not look like it should be on that innocent looking face.
Robert nodded in agreement. "Given the past circumstances, it isn't exactly surprising, Lilith."
"Huh? What are you guys talking about?" Lina asked.
There was a silence that went around the two older vampires.
"Oh, ancient history, my dear," Lilith replied, slowly. "Nothing to worry yourself about."
"Yes, you should be worrying about yerself, girl," Robert said, giving Lina a look of annoyance. "Go to sleep and don't THINK!" He smirked. "You'll be needing it for your first lesson with me."
Lina sweatdropped. Although he looked down on her, she knew he was much more powerful and much, much older than she was. "Uh...don't I get a say in this?"
Lilith gave her a small laugh. "Not yet, dear. However, I will give you your first lesson. Close your eyes."
Lina did as she was told. At the moment, she was not yet powerful enough to resist their direct orders.
"Imagine a spell that guards you against any magical or physical attacks, perhaps the one you used against the Ly," Lilith instructed.
Valis Wall, Lina thought. A white magic spell which creates a defensive shield.
"Yes, very good," Lilith continued. "Now think of that shield blocking your thoughts. An invisible wall that guards your mind."
Invisible wall guarding my thoughts, Lina thought. Like a fence around a house, a moat around a castle. There! My guards are up!
She heard a giggling from the older vampire. "Not exactly, but you get the idea. You will get used to it. With practice, it will become innate and you will not have to think to guard your thoughts."
"I will get what hours are leftover of the day," Robert said grudgingly from a corner, half his body already blending in with the shadows. He gave Lina a glare. "And keep practicing at it, girl! It's annoying!" His head disappeared into the wall.
Lina hmph'ed and crossed her arms. "Give me some credit! I'm still new at it!"
"Then prepare yourself for tonight's first lesson!" a growl came out from the corner.
She stuck her tongue out to the shadows and turned to Lilith. "I don't think he likes me much."
Lilith smiled and shook her head. "He is just a very grumpy vampire. Do not mind him. He's always been like that, even when he was human."
Lina laid back down onto the bed and looked at Lilith. "So you guys knew each other before you guys were vampires?"
The smile left Lilith's face as she seemed to went into thought. "Yes...we...at the time, we had become acquainted very fast." She turned her head back to Lina and a small smile came back onto the pale face. "Situations forced us to survive with each other."
"Oh..." Lina said. "Okay, well, I'll try to work on your first lesson. It's just...very hard to adjust to everything so suddenly."
"I know, dear, I understand," Lilith said. "However, like Robert said, you need to quickly adjust to your new Being or else the many Others will get a chance to take an advantage of you."
"Others like other vampires, you mean?" Lina asked.
"Others as in everything, Lina. You do not understand that we are but one of the many creatures that share the Night," Lilith said and clasped her hands behind her back. "There are many Others that do not wish to share. The Lycans, for example. And Hunters, as well, whom do not wish to share the Night nor the Day."
"Hunters?" Lina repeated. "You guys never told me that before."
Lilith nodded. "We have not told you much of anything, Lina. We'll have to start with your abilities first. If anything should come to pass, you will know about it." She smiled and began to blend with the shadows. "Get some rest, dear. As Robert promised, you will need it for tonight." With that, she completely embraced the shadows and disappeared from Lina's sight.
Lina sighed but only got annoyed that she could not. She wondered how her other two companions managed the trick. She twiddled with her fingers. A week ago, the moment the sun rose, she would instantly fall asleep, now she was an insomniac vampire.
She thought back to her friends and found that she missed them miserably. Lilith and Robert told her it was best she remained dead in their minds. They were different creatures now, mysterious creatures, something that more than half the world's population believes to be a myth, just a scary story to tell in the dark.
Two nights after she was properly introduced to Lilith and Robert, and her new being, she begged and begged to just see how her friends were before departing for MidNighte. Amelia distracted herself with her royal duties, losing most of her perkiness as the usual young cheerful princess Lina used to know. Right after the funeral, Zelgadis left to search for his cure. Gourry stayed with the princess longer, trying to give her the comfort as an old friend, but after finding that Amelia was so busy with her position, he left to return to his homeland.
She rolled over on her side to face the window. The curtain covering the window was so thick not even one speck of ray can shine through.
So what did I do all this for? Lina thought to herself, she caught herself and tried to shield her mind. Why am I still here for?
Finding that she was getting more and more depressed, Lina threw the covers over her head and curled up in a ball, desparately trying to rest.
I'm Lina Inverse! I won't let Death get the best of me!
-----
Five hours, two minutes, and thirteen seconds later...
"How did you even survive so long as a HUMAN?!" Robert yelled about ten feet away from Lina.
Lina, bloody and heavily panting, lay silently on the sandy shore.
The minute the last of the sun's ray disappeared, Lilith and Robert took her to an abandoned beach. Lilith watched as Robert tried to teach Lina of battle tactics, which, in Lina's opinion, consisted of nothing but heavy vampirical abuse.
The first thing Robert tried to teach her was how to blend in with the shadows. A very handy and common ability among Vampires. Then how to use her new speed and stronger strength in combat. In the end, the two got so annoyed at each other that they ended up on a one-on-one fight, of course, Robert, older and more experienced, got the best of newborn Lina.
"Going head to head with a Lycan, you need to be part of the Shadows," he explained. "You must understand that they have unnatural strength compared to Us. I wouldn't worry too much about the Weres, they are but pups compared to Us, even for you."
He gave Lina a critical look. "Besides that, it is embarassing that a newborn that derived from Lilith and I would not know how to control the Shadows nor draw out her speed and strength. I don't know how to make it any easier for you, girl. As I've said, the Shadows are all around us, become the Shadows, and you are free to move wherever it may reside. Your strength is inside you, draw it out, your speed is innate, use it as though you would as a human!" Robert huff and puff and blew all his undead air out. If he were alive, his face would have been redden with anger and annoyance.
Lina stood up shakingly. "You didn't have to beat me half to death, demonstrating it to me, yknow." She wiped the blood off her mouth and ignored the growing thirst in her throat.
Robert grunted in reply. "I've found that beating you half to death is the only way to make you learn any faster!"
Lina turned to look at the female vampire perched on the remains of a sail boat. "Is this how you taught him? How'd he become such a psychopath?"
"This PSYCHOPATH is not nearly done with you, girl!" He spit out the sentence.
Lilith giggled. "Perhaps worst. You should know that I have not always been this patient."
"That's a big understatement," Robert snorted and folded his arms across his broad chest.
Ignoring him, Lilith went on, "It also has something to do with the person's own strength and susceptibility to acquire more knowledge. Robert was strong even as a newborn. It is uncommon but not rare. You can say he was Made with innate strength and abilities to begin with. Throughout the years, you will become more and more strong, even without trying." She tilt her head back, as if in thought.
Lilith hmm'ed and said, "Fear would probably be what you feel if you meet any Others as old as Robert and I. Don't worry about it, I'm sure you'll get over it quickly." She smiled confidently at Lina.
Robert pshaw'ed and said, "You give her too much credit. She's only a week old."
"Yes, well, I believe in her," Lilith said and was suddenly next to Robert.
Lina blinked. She didn't see Lilith emerge with the Shadows. "What did you..."
"Oh," she said, "that's just speed, dear. Don't worry, you'll learn have that too in time. But I guess practice is the key here..."
Lilith looked Lina over and hmm'ed. The damages Robert inflicted on her was minimal and they were already closing, due to her vampirical healing abilities. She looked at Lina's tattered white pajamas she still wore. "Your wounds are closed, it wasn't too bad. But your clothes is a different matter." Lilith gave Robert an annoyed glare. "You didn't have to go and ruin the only sets of clothes we had for her, Robbie."
Robert looked away and ignored her.
Lilith looked back at Lina. "Well, you two have been plenty offensive for tonight. Let's take down more defensive ability, shall we?"
Lina groaned. "What are we gonna do now? I still haven't exactly managed the first one you taught me, yknow."
"Actually, I think you're handling your shield pretty well, considering you only learned it about five hours ago," Lilith commented and turned around, walking away from the shores. "Let us show you how to feed."
"What?! No way!" Lina almost tripped on her own feet. "I'm not doing that!"
"How else do you think you will stay alive, girl?!" Robert growled, looking back annoyingly at her.
Lilith too, with an emotionless expression on her face. "Come, Lina. You must feed. As it is, you lost a good deal of blood. I can feel your thirst."
Unable to deny the old Vampire's orders, Lina followed. The three continued their way out of the abandoned village.
"It is not as bad as you might think, Lina," Lilith said. "As I've mentioned before, we do not need to drain humans dry in order to fully recover. Although, do not be surprised that some of Us do that, just because they can."
"But do I HAVE to?" Lina whined.
Lilith nodded. "You must, Lina. You do not yet realize how important it is to make yourself feed on living blood. It is your very existence, Lina."
Following behind her, Lina had nothing else to rebuke. The three walked on in silence.
-----
"This is a good place," Lilith said, pointing at an inn/lounge within a small "pit stop" village for travelers.
So late in the night, the lounge was raudy and filled with drunkards.
"MUST you always choose such places to find prey, Lilith?" Robert complained, brushing back his silver hair.
"It is a perfect place, Robert," she replied, casually avoiding customers exited the lounge.
"Their blood rots of such cheap liquor," he growled.
"Well, for tonight, they are easier prey," Lilith said and did not wait for another reply.
She walked up the steps and pushed through the doors. The crowd was oblivious of the three newcomers, they went on with their merry drunken lives as the three sat at the table in the middle of the crowd. A voluptuous woman of red hair and face full of powder and lip stick walked towards the three, hips swaying suggestively. She made her way towards them and stopped directly at Robert's side, leaning against the wooden table, completely ignoring the other two.
"Hey there, big guy," she purred. "What can I get for ya?"
"Fine wine would be asking too much of a place like this," Robert snorted.
The woman giggled, intentionally bouncing her big chest up and down. "I got anything ya want, big boy."
"Anything with grape is fine with him, miss," Lilith said, smiling.
The woman stopped giggling and turned to look at Lilith, as if seeing her for the first time. She then turned to look at Lina, her face filled with annoyance.
"This isn't a place for little girls like yourselves, huns," the woman said.
"Yes, well, I've got my guardian right here, big and strong," Lilith replied and placed a hand on Robert's arm. "By the way, I believe your other customers are calling for your service, miss. Perhaps you should do your job and serve them." With that, Lilith smiled the most innocent smile Lina had ever seen on anybody.
The woman, probably screaming in her own heading, hissed and turned away sharply on her heels and marched to where a tubby man waved a lazy hand over by the bar.
Lina openly laughed. "That was great, Lilith!"
Lilith giggled childishly. "Whoopsey, did I make her angry? I hadn't meant it. Just wanted to be a helpful customer is all."
Robert snorted the childish acts before him. "Foolish. You are straying from our purpose, Lilith."
Lilith pouted cutely. "You just have no sense of humor, my dear Robert."
She cleared her throat and looked around the raudy crowd. "In any case, let me teach you something before attending to our next lesson. I want to show you how to read minds, human minds, to be exact."
Lina leaned in with interest. "Now this is something much more interesting than physical abuse."
"Well, THIS, won't save you from any battles," Robert informed.
Lilith ignored his comment and continued, "Reach out with your own mind, Lina. Think of an invisible hand linking your mind to theirs. Human minds are unprotected, Lina. It is very easy to find out what they are thinking."
She nodded towards the woman that just left their table. "Try and focus on her. Find out what she is thinking."
Lina looked towards the red-head, now flirting with another patron, her hips leaning on the table. Lina closed her eyes and imagined an invisible hand, a link between her mind and the woman's.
"Read it like an open book," Lilith's voice floated about.
Like an open book, Lina thought.
--stupid kid-- Lina heard.
--I could've landed him if it weren't for her-- The next thought came pouring in.
--Now I gotta settle for THIS half pint-- And she cut the link, laughing.
"Wow! That was easy!" Lina said, somewhat proud that she managed it so quickly.
Lilith smiled encouraged. "Yes, that was good, Lina."
"Humans' minds are easy read, they are unguarded, unlike Others," Robert commented. "Don't get too cocky. Mind reading isn't going to save your life when it comes to fighting Hunters or Lycans."
Lina frowned. Just like him to bring down her moment of shine. "Are you EVER satisfied with anything?"
"When it comes to you, not really," he snorted in disgust.
Lina slammed her hands on the table, cracking it. "WHAT is your problem?!"
Robert stood up abruptly. "That would be YOU that's my problem, girl! You were a human! Arrogant, flawed! I don't know what Lilith was thinking Making you one of Us!" With that outburst, he waited for no replies and stomped out of the lounge, bursting through the door.
"What's your problem?!" Lina shouted after him.
Lilith placed a hand on Lina's arm. "Lina, clam down. It's alright. Do not mind him, dear. He is just upset that I would involve another within our bond." She stood up and sighed, or made the gesture of sighing. "I will be right back. We must talk. In the mean time, try to entertain yourself." Lilith swiftly made her way towards the exit and pushed herself through the doors.
Lina slumped on the table and groaned.
"Greeat...I just got ditched and I don't even know my way back...life of the undead is just perfect..." she mumbled into her arms.
"Heeey, cutey." Lina looked up at three drunks.
"Ugh! This isn't something I need right now," she said to no one in particular.
"Heh heh...Ah'll give ya somethin' ya need, cutey," the first drunk slurred and put an arm around her shoulders. The other two laughed to nothing funny at all.
Lina started to giggle maniacally to under her breath. "I don't need vampire skills to beat the living shit out of you guys."
"Eh...whadda said, hun," the drunk slurred.
Lina stood up. "If you follow me, I'll show you what I said." She made her way towards the door, the three drunks staggering behind.
-----
"Robert, stop," Lilith ordered as they re-emerged from the shadows. "Please, stop. What's wrong? Why can you not accept her like I did?"
"Why should I?!" he shouted, his back turned to her. "She was just a human! Just a human that happened to be in the cross fire at that hot spring! I don't understand WHY you had to give her a choice to become one of Us!"
Lilith's eyes softened as she made her way towards her companion. "It was a feeling, Robert. A good one about her that I cannot throw away."
Robert growled at that reply. "That is not an answer, Lilith! A foolish feeling, no doubt! To have mercy on such a human!"
"Do you not trust me anymore, Robert?" Lilith asked softly.
He whipped around facing the female vampire and halted as he saw a look of hurt in her eyes. He looked away, feeling ashamed.
"I had a feeling about you too, Robert, a good one. Not one day goes by do I ever regret having taken the chance to act upon the feeling I had," she said softly into the night.
"That--at the time, it was different, there weren't many for you to choose from, Lilith," he said just as softly.
She shook her head slightly. "That's not true and you know it."
Robert straightened and looked at Lilith. "I'm sorry, Lilith, for the outburst, it was unlike me."
"Yes, that was very out of character, Robert," she said, nodding in agreement. "But I have no choice but to forgive you." She smiled.
Robert grunted. "But I'll still tell you this: I have doubts about that girl. She doesn't seem like she has any great potentials like you say. In fact, she refuses her new Being."
Lilith nodded again. "Yes, that is true and I do not blame you for your doubts, Robert. She seems to be holding on a bit too much to her humanity, it seems."
"It is good in a way but very limiting, you should know that," he informed.
"Yes, I should..." She said and looked up at the starry night. Soon the sun will rise again.
"By the way, not that I care, but where is the said vampire?" Robert asked. "I don't sense her at the lounge anymore."
"Don't worry, I sent a familiar after her, she should be okay," she said.
Robert shrugged. "And if not, she should find out the hard way that life of an undead isn't always easy like you make it for her."
Lilith laughed softly. "That is true."
Robert gave her a sidelong glance. "So we're okay?"
She gave him a genuine smile, a smile only for him. "Always."
-----
"There! That should teach you assholes to mess with a cranky undead sorceress this late in the night!" Lina snorted and brushed back her hair.
The three drunkards lay in a heap of blood and defeat. Just like Robert said, it stank of cheap alcohol. Very distasteful even though her throat was dry. She tried to quench it by drinking water from the lake but it did not help. Lina tried to drink their blood but found that she couldn't, it stank too horribly and she just couldn't do it, plain and simple. Drinking blood was still so disgusting to Lina.
"I'm gettin' outta here."
Making her way back to the small tavern, she knew in her mind that Robert and Lilith would not like her actions of not drinking the "living blood" tonight, but there were other nights, and she knew for a fact that there were still "dead blood" at the inn. Disgusting or not, she needed to survive.
Lina walked swiftly through the woods, trying out her new speed. She didn't noticed at the time that she had come this deep into the forest. Something caught her attention and she stopped abruptly. Lina sniffed, she smelled something, something sweet. She followed the scent. It made her more thirsty, her throat more dry, she sped up. She stopped as she came to a pond, a clearing of some sort where animals probably pause to take a drink. There she saw the source of the deliciously sweet scent.
It was blood. Blood from an unconscious man propped up against a tree trunk. It was trickling down his head. Unable, or unwilling, to stop herself, Lina made her way towards the man and knelt down in front of him. He didn't stir.
Sweet, sweet smell. Like nectar. Like honey caressing her nostrils. Like untainted blood... She found that she wanted a taste of it very badly. She couldn't stop herself, not like how she could have with those three other men.
Unknowing to herself, her pupils slitted as her fangs protruded from her mouth.
She leaned down, putting her face close to the blood. Her elongated tongue closed the small distance as she licked the blood off the man's cheek.
Lina suddenly felt a sharp burning pain on her heart, bringing her back to reality. She shrieked and jumped back. Her eyes turned back to their regular ruby-red, her fangs disappeared, her tongue was normal again.
"What the hell?!" she shouted. There was a shape of a cross burnt through her white pajama top, her skin sizzled. She looked at the man, now conscious and standing with a cross in front of him, warding her away like the monster that she is.
Her eyes narrowed as she studied the man. He was a priest, albeit a young one. He wore a white over coat with golden sewed on the seams. He had short, light blonde hair, so light that one could mistaken it for white. His eyes were green, moss green, clear and bright. In Lina's opinion, the man did not look older than his early twentied. The cross he was using was half the size of his hands, tied to a golden chain around his neck. Although a small trinket, it worked like a charm on Lina, turning her stomach inside out just by looking at it.
She snorted in disgust, more of herself than anything else. How could she have let herself do that?
"Great," she mumbled, "the one time I actually got the guts to feed is the one time I munch on a holy guy."
Lina made a gesture like she was sighing and brushed her red hair away from her face. "Uh, look...Father, I didn't mean to do that, it's not like I had a good taste of it anyway, how about letting it slide just this once, eh? I mean, I swear I couldn't control myself, I usually can, that was very unlike me."
His green eyes narrowed. "Go back to Hell from whence you came, damned creature." He took a step toward Lina, holding the cross higher.
Lina winced and backed away. "Hey, stop that! Okay, maybe I deserved that much, having licked blood off you..." She looked up in thought. "It was very good, by the way, unlike those drunks, compliments to your heart, Father." She giggled at her own joke.
The priest grunted in disgust. "You creatures are disgusting! I, Father Marcus of Saint Vinaceli, shall punish you according to the Lord's will!"
Lina winced again, taking another step back. She wasn't familiar enough with her abilities to fight in this battle. The priest seems to know what he was doing. She turned her body half way, ready to sprint back towards the tavern.
"Don't even think of escaping now, vampire!" He spitted the last word out with venom. "Luka! Mirna!"
"Oh, what NOW?!" Lina shouted as arrows blurred pass her. She dodged them fairly well, considering she had only trained for one night. They weren't shot in slow motion, even with Lina's unnatural eyesight, but they were slow enough to dodge with some effort. But there were too many shooting out from all directions. Lina stumbled about, trying to move quickly enough from one side to another.
A pain shot through her right arm and Lina howled. She looked down to find that an arrow made its way through her arm, blood trickled down the wound. She snarled and dodge more arrows. Another shot made it through her left shoulder. As these two arrows made her slow down massively, one by one, more arrows made its way through her body. Lina felt every drop of blood drained from her wounds. Her head spun. She shook her head, trying to clear it out and found that the arrows stopped flying about. Lina blinked hard, trying to clear her blurry eye sight, focusing hard on the priest. She tried to identify the two new figures which now stood on each side of him but couldn't.
"This is so bogus...this...wasn't what I wanted..." was the last thing Lina managed to say.
Lina hadn't noticed that she was on her knees until she felt her hand on the ground. Her blood were still draining from her body and she saw every drop of it on the dirted floor before darkness took her mind completely.
-----
Marcus sighed and looked at the two beside him. "Go."
They nodded and went to the fallen vampire.
"She's still a newborn, Father," a feminine voice called out.
"No wonder it was so easy to capture her," a male voice commented.
"Yes, I realized that," Marcus said. "That's why she was so easily drawn by the scent of my blood. Any older vampires would have known it was atrap."
Marcus went to the vampire and looked at her pale face. The multiple arrows still protruding from her body was draining the blood out of her but it won't kill her, that much he knew. The only way to kill a vampire was to stake it through the heart or slice their heads off. This was only a minor set back even for a newborn vampire like her.
"Bring her back with us," he ordered the two. "I want to know of the Others she may have been in contact with."
The two nodded obediently and proceeded to lift the red-haired vampire up.
Marcus turned his back on them and started to walk into the forest.
The three hadn't noticed a dark crow perched atop a low branch, observing with its beady eyes the events that just took place.

Author's note: One thing I'd like to mention is the spell Valis Wall. I looked it up and it turns out that it only gaurds against fire attacks (fire spells, dragon breath, and normal fire) not any physical attacks, I was thinking of the spell Defense for that (info. courtesy of ). Yea, I made a big ass boo-boo. Sorry people! please disregard it! Any spells used will be looked up from now on! I swear!!! D;
So yea! This is the third chapter! I hope I didn't cram too much info in here! D; I just wanted to finally introduced other characters thats non-vampire. :D
