Chapter 4

The next morning

"ahhh", i just woke up to the sight of Dracula standing over me, not a good sight by the way "drac?"

"i need to talk to you" he said "follow me".

Do i really have a choice? Well most likely not, so i got up and followed him anyway.

"Hey drac, tell me, why did you turn us back there, i mean we were going to kill you, i don't mean to be fussy or anything i just want to know why?"

His head turned just far enough so that his eyes met mine

" you are a good one" he said, " you where determined to kill me but as soon as you saw... what we really where y- you protected us. My daughter mavis seen something good in you, you are brave, strong and stand up for what you believe in... i am proud to have saved you.

And with that he turned his head and carried on walking. He stopped outside a huge middle aged door, that flew open with the click of his fingers.

"connor!, hi"

Mavis was stood there barely able to keep still. Her father looked at her and then at me, and give her the nod.

" ok connor, your a vampire now which means you are able to do certain vampire things "

The count stood into my path and said " mavis offered to train you, if you will, to become one of us, this will include training you to use all powers we are able to use. You will have personal training, whilst i go and get your friends up to speed."

He looked at mavis before leaving the room and smiled " good look my little blood-orange"

I turned to see her wide eyes staring at me, she was bouncing up and down on the balls of her feet, ready to explode. I opened my arms as a gesture of good faith, arms of which i couldn't feel any more since she flew straight into them. Its safe to say i like the attention but was a little shocked.

" ok lets get started, as you know, vampires have a certain, lets say diet, and i am going to help you get started with the diet, lets go!"

Without being warned i was dragged out into the hall way, being led down stairs, ahhh she's going to make me drink blood, i know it .

"Ohhh stop whining, its only a bit of blood"

She turned around with this little crooked smile, awaiting my reaction.

" did you just... read, my m-mind" i whispered.

She let out the most cutest little giggle ever " yup, but it weakens me, i can only do it when i have enough energy" she smiled again which melted my heart, but i guess she knew what i was thinking because she blushed.

Hear we go i told my self, we entered the disserted mess hall and she led me to a bunch of tables , she hinted for me to sit down which i did willingly and she walked away towards a room near the serving station. Ok connor, its ok, its just a bit of blood, you can handle this.

She reappeared with two bags of giggled again making me freeze with joy, jesus what's happening to me?

"ok this isn't actual human blood this is animal blood"

She through the bag so i was able to catch.

" go on" she said with a slight smile, "its good, see"

She opened hers and began to drink. Alright if a girl can do it then so can i.

She laughed " thats the spirit connor, if i can do it then why cant you" she mocked.

"get out of my head", i joked. Right this is it, i placed the straw in the bag and took a gulp. I looked at her in amazement.

"this is amazing, why does this taste so good" i asked

Ha-ha" I'm glad you liked it, the real challenge was for me to get you to actually try the thing" she giggled.

She sat right next to me, as we both took sips of the bag.

"so , i noticed your mum isn't around" ahhh shit, i already regretted saying that.

"well" she started "my dad told me when i was very young, the humans came to find me...they did eventually find where we lived and when they did they burned down the house with us still inside" she stopped to wipe a tear that had escaped he eye.

" my mom made my dad promise to protect me and with that she was traped, dad couldn't do anything because he was holding me, IT WAS ALL MY FALT" She cried.

Dam it connor why did i have to bring that up. I droped the blood bag on the table and grasped her in my arms. She continued to cry into my shoulder for about ten minuets.

I thought to my self, almost a weak ago i believed vampires didnt have soles and hear one is crying her soul out onto my very arms."

" im sorry" i whispered attempting to sooth her pain, "im sorry, everything is ok."

And with that she held on even tighter as if she was never to let go.

"ok lets get you to your room" i whispered, and she nodded in approval.

I walked her to her door but she didn't want to let go. Oh well what's the worst that could happen. So i sat her down on the bed right next to me.

"are you ok?" i asked, of coarse she's not ok, so before she said anything a laid back and rested her head on my neck, she snuggled in and whispered" thank you."

Ok im trying my best to really connect the characters. With a thanks to sondardo and wallaceb for some ideas to improve my writing. This chapter was a lot slower than my last 3 but belive its for the best. Review to help me improve.
