Present day: The next thing i knew was that the Vampire who bit me lost sudden interest and was lying on the floor in pain and Vlad was kneeling down beside me.

Back to the story.

In the castle:

"Ingrid!,get down here i need to talk!" Vlad shouted and with that his voice echoed through the walls of the castle.

"Why do you need to talk to me breather lover?" Ingrid said with a smirk on her face

"Dont call me that, any ways i need to ask you something." Vlad said with a slightly worried tone in his voice.

"Really Vlad, you dont need me any-more your 15 now and a big boy! but i'll help if you do me something!" Ingrid said sarcastically

"Alright, what do you want!" Vlad moaned

"For you to get me a breather to bite! Ingrid said with a intimidating voice.(A/N Ingrid has been a vampire for a year now and Vlad Is still the chosen one but is able to go out side and not get burnt however he has fangs already due to the fact he's the chosem one)

" You know i cant do that ingrid!" Vlad shouted

" Well no problem solved for you then chosen one!" Ingrid laughed eyes turning black and began to walk away

" Wait! come back 'll let you bite a breather but don't tell dad this is really important that you listen" Vlad whispered

"Go ahead then Vladdy boy tell me what your problem is" Ingrid said cheerfully

" Okay so as you know im good friends with Layla Jones, but anyway when i was running from dad this morning i bumped in to her and she was telling me about this dream. It was about her in a room with a mirror, Like a blood mirror and she said she saw her reflection of her older self. The girl in the mirror kept repeating 'I am a reflection of whats to come' but how can she be in the dream world Ingrid she's a breather and also on the mirror she said there was a symbol but couldn't remember what it look like! Vlad went on

"Did she say what the room looked like?" Ingrid said worriedly

"She said it looked like the crypt and the dungeon were the blood mirror is kept" Vlad explained

"Thats Bad,really bad if you dont tell dad i will. He needs to know about this! its extremely important! Dont tell Layla anything i mean it Vlad!" Ingrid said and swooshed off to were the count was sleeping.


At Layla's

I did as Vlad said and didnt tell any-one, But i was pacing back and forth waiting for 2'o clock to come, I needed to know What was up. My watched beeped 2 and as i expected the door bell rang, Sydney was the first there so she answered it.

"Oh, Hello Sydney is Layla in?" Vlad said in a very childish voice

"Im not 5 you know I'm 10! but if you really must know Layla is in her room second door the the left." Sydney said rudely

Vlad was heading up the stairs just as he bumped into my mum

"Hello Vlad, Here to see Layla are we,come on i'll show you to her room." she said politely

A minute or so later,

"Hey Vlad!, what have you found out then, you know about the dream..." I said quietly as i could

"Nothing as such yet,Ingrid has gone and asked dad, but i promise you I'm going to find answers to this." Vlad reassured me

"Great,so what are we going to do then?" I said in a very shy tone.

"i know, come on get your shoes on." Vlad excitedly said

He grabbed my hand and started pulling me down the stairs, shouting "come on!" As soon as i had my shoes on he picked me up and he was starting to run. I realised were he was taking me and i started laughing. It was the old den that we found earlier on. He sat me down on the Hammock and started talking.

"So Layla, you wanted to know about what being a vampire is about. shoot all your questions at me." He mentioned.

"Well i thought that vampires burnt in sunlight and they don't have a reflection, but that doesn't seem to be happening to you"i said confused

"Well heres the thing, vampires don't come into their full powers until there 16th birthday .so i don't have fangs or bite people, I'm normal i have a reflection and i can still go out into the sunlight, but with me i don't want to drink blood i just want peace between vampires and breathers, dad doesn't see it that way just because I'm the 'chosen one'." Vlad explained.(A/N Vlad doesnt want layla to know he has fangs and powers)

"What's the 'chosen one' exactly then?" I said

" Ah well thats a different story for me. It means I'm the most powerful vampire, and since we found out, I've had to live up to the potential of the vampire high council, and when I come into my full powers I'm going to be the grand high vampire and hopefully i can take control." Vlad went on.

" Do you think thats going to be easy?" I said as i gazed into his eyes

" I dont know but I've told you to much already I've just got to keep you away from the high council, my grandparents and especially my dad" he said.

"Off of that section why cant you tell me about what ingrid said about the dream?" I bellowed at him.

"Layla I've told you she hasn't said anything to me! Just promise me you'll not mentioned it to anyone! " He shouted

" Im sorry i shouldn't have mentioned it" I said

We sat there for about 10 minutes and we didn't say anything to each other, i felt so stupid! I kept looking over at him he just sat there thinking but what about.

"No, Im sorry i shouldnt have shouted" Vlad eventually said

From then on we was laughing and joking about, and trying to make a plan to stop his dad and Ingrid from biting any of My family when we go up there for 'dinner'.

After a while of silence my watch beeped six, i didnt realise that we had been talking for so long before that.

"Whats that? Already 6?" Vlad said

"Yep! I better get going and get ready" I told him

" Ok same here be careful yea?! See you soon" He explained then picked me up and hugged me we both headed seaperate directions, Vlad up to the castle and me down in to the village.

Later that night...

Sydney ran up to the castle door, i ran after her worried of what could happend if she was left on her own.

"Hey, up you two...Welcome in weres your mum, dad and liam?" Vlad cheerfully said which concerned me.(A/N,Their dad has never been mentioned as he's thier step dad)

"Hey" I gave a small smile before interrupted by Sydney once again

" There just down the hill they'll be here soon shall we wait" Sydney said

"Yeah sure just stand aside." Vlad said as he gave me a wink.

They eventually made it up the hill, as they was all walking really slow.

"Hello Amanda, Todd and Liam (A/N Mum Amanda dad Todd) how are you." Vlad said cheerfully once again

"Great thanks" Todd said with a small smile

"Come right through Follow me and you can sit at the table" Vlad explained.

Inside.

"Ah, Vladdy vladdy come here" The count said happily bouncing up and down.

" What is it?" Vlad said with a smirk

" i want to congratulate you on getting me these lovely breathers to bite!" the count said while patting vlad on the back

"Dad! There not to bite!" Fangs showing (A/N Vlad has his fangs but is Afraid to tell layla)

"There just here for 'dinner'" Vlad whispered

"Put them away, i promise i'll not bite them...Just not today anyway!" The count said while laughing and clapping his hands together.

Vlad and the count came and sat down at the table while ingrid came in with a book in her hand,she gestured at Vlad then at me. I was nervous at first but vlad grabbed my hand and whispered in my ear. "its about the dream, come on".

"Right, you two after dinner down at the crypt with me" Ingrid said witha comanding tone.

"Sure thing, arnt you eating?" Vlad said

"Nope. Im going to do some re-search on your dream layla" Ingrid said and then sped off forgetting that they were breathers and using her powers around them.

We walked back over to the table and then Renfield (the butler) came dashing out witha trolly full of food for us that the count ordered him to cook.

"Stuffed rabbit cooked in sheep blood and with the hint of cockroach, or if you'd prefer pigs snout soacked in its very own blood...for your liking" Renfield said and lifted the covers of each one.

"Ohh delicious" Amanda said

"Ew!" Liam, Sydney and I said at the same time.

Later on after dinner, Down in the crypt

"Right Layla i need you to concentrate and rember exacly what the symbol looked like." Ingrid said in the nicest way.

"Well i dont quite remeber , but it was like a sword shape, and it had a bat inside it, there was a gorgole thing aswell on top of it in the shape of a dragon." I explained

"Like this one?" Vlad pointed to a picture in the book ingrid was holding

"Yeah! Exacly its alot more clear now." I said

Vlad and ingrid both looked at each other in shock, i was so scared i didnt know what they was thinking..then suddenly ingrid flashed up to the dinner area and then back down with the count.

"Right dad, youve been putting this off long enough this is the symbol she saw now tell me!" Ingrid ordered the count.

He stood there in shock and turned away, he then came out "Children i have a confession to make, A berdin i'd swore i carry alone..."
