Chapter 11: Danny POV

The wind rustled through my hair. My emerald, green irises met ruby ones.

"Did you do this?" I asked him.

He looked at me for a long time.

"Answer me".

"Did I what?" he asked.

"Did you kill these people," I asked him.

"Maybe," he answered and gave me a smug look.

"Vlad," I whined. "Why. I though you had changed."

"Then, you were wrong, Daniel," he said.

"You know, you could afford to change," I added.

"Oh, I could, could I? Well, maybe you could afford to become evil," he replied.

"Maybe I couldn't. Did you think about that, Vlad," I said mockingly.

He grabbed my throat and held me up to his face.

"Daniel, I was not afraid to take out your friends and I'm not afraid to take out you," he said.

"I thought you said you loved me… wait you killed Sam and Tucker," I asked surprised.

"Well, your friend Tucker, is no more, but Samantha is still here," he said.

"Sam is safe?" I asked.

"Yes". I sighed.

"Danny?" someone asked. Vlad put me down, and we looked around.

"Hello?" I replied. It moved into the light.

"Sam," I gasped. I ran up to her and hugged her. "I've missed you so much. I thought you had died".

"I thought you died," she said.

"Well, I did," I said.

"You did!" Sam exclaimed.

"Yeah, but Vlad brought me back to life," I said.

"Wait, he did," she asked.

"Yep," I said.

"Come on. There's an alliance against Vlad," she whispered in my ear.

"Ok," I whispered back.

We ran away to the alliance, leaving Vlad alone.
