A/N: Sarah, eyes glowing and Alfred, even in death going where she will. It is the first night of Alfred's unlife, and the world is more beautiful than it ever was.
Lost in the woods, they stumble forth without even knowing their destination. Sarah is leading Alfred by hand, and he happily follows her, like he did in life. He follows without asking any questions, although it doesn't look like she knows where she's taking him. Human Alfred would have been worried by this, but not the new him, not the free and strong and fast Alfred. Perhaps she's even more altered that he is, so that she doesn't know the location of her past life, or maybe she's just too dazed to think... Alfred is, at any rate.
They lose the professor at some point, Alfred doesn't even know when, but he finds it hard to care for such thing. What does it matter, really, for he is in love with night and her and he's never been like this? Every now and then, they fall down together, and they bite and kiss and caress as they roll on the snowy floor of the forest. Night is on them, in them, and if Alfred can think of anything, it's pity for the mortals who will never feel this.
It is because of this haze that they barely notice the passing of time, and suddenly they can feel that horrifying sting they instinctively know to link with the nearing sunrise. With it, they realize they have no sanctuary, and they cannot make one for themselves: the ground is frozen and too hard for them to dig a safe hole for the day.
Alfred is starting to panic at the thought of dawn when all of a sudden, a tall dark shape materializes as if out of nowhere. Both him and her know this presence, although there are things they haven't noticed before. Alfred can remember the dead human in him being intimidated by this man, this creature; some of that remain, but he's also very curious and somehow tempted. There's a call about the old vampire's presence, something that demands their attention and obedience and even love, and Alfred is too young to realize that it's their shared bloodline – it's even stronger for her, for the old vampire is her sire. They're now connected in ways humans can never understand, and he'll be always there, even for Alfred; he's the source from where this new darkness flows.
And when he beckons, both of them follow blindly. Sarah, eyes glowing and Alfred, even in death going where she will. He's not fearful, not anymore, and the newly released beast in him yearns for all the dark secrets he can learn from the old vampire.
She takes his hand once more, and together they follow Krolock into the eternal night.
