alice instantly stoped crying "great found out so what is this huge place anyway i just happend to come here for the night im tired of walking i thought this place was abandoned guess i was wrong." she looked around again getting more and more confused how could anybody tell that she wasnt just a young human. she looked at acheron and gave him a look that could kill she had never been talked to like that she was used to being talked down to or atleast being treated kindly she didnt like the way he talked to her.

((Theikos is attacking Nix outside of Vexous's room, so where he is, I am. I guess.:)))

Acheron knew exactly what that look meant, and he started laughing. "you my dear are nothing compared to the creatures standing around you, i suggest you be yourself or you could get your head cut off" she grinned something evil, licking his lips he returned to help Vexous walk. "we need to get you blood My Lady" his tone had turned soft and almost loving.
((ash cant see it, i got what you were doing))

"Ach please, your making me look like a weakling" she said as she changed forms and made her way to the Kitchen, making sure no one was near her she wented right through the floor boards to the under garden where she kept the humans for just this sort of thing, releasing one from the wall he cam towards her. "back for more i see"
she glared at him, he was one of the many murders of her kind that she had captured and kept down her. rolling her eyes she grabbed him around the neck and drank deeply.
she pulled away and realised she'd taken to much throwing the limp body into the water where it hissed and sank, she sat and watched, blood dripping down her face the sheet she wore was no longer white in any part.

Mikhial let out a low growl as Acheron passed and went to Vexous's side. He didn't know who this person was but they smelt much like the castel. Meaning they must of been here since before him himself and many of the other creatures that were gathered in the room as well. Even so he did not trust this man. He seemed as though he was not vary worried about what was going on. "If he was like most humans... I'd be able to smell his emotion... better then this... wouldn't I?" Mikhial questioned to himself.

Then Mikhial ears perked at the sudden sound of an anoying screeching child. He quickly pinned them back so to try and block the noise out some. He whirled around just intime to see the tiger pin the awful sounding creature to the wall and hoped that would make it stop.

Mikhial tilted his head to the side at the comment Acheron made to the dragon. Then he curiously sniffed at the air. There was definetly something in the shadows that the dragon had found. "This smell seems so.. familure.." Mikhial thought to himself as he dashed out the door way and to where the dragon was.

"Show yourself!" He sent into the shadows as he growled and barred his fangs.

'I know who made the pain when you remember. It was Verlarus, and I'm just wondering but can your butler hear my thoughts? I just want to know if I should guard my personal thoughts from slipping out.' Josephine looked at her wound, willing the dragon blood to heal her and the cut slowly drifted shut. 'Thank you for saving my life so many times back then, your blood helped me heal when I would have died.' Josephine looked up, the fresh memories bringing tears to her eyes. 'Lacsar, I would like you to bring two of the young Sparrow guards we have, I do not want to sleep without one of you watching me.' 'I will send Roirraw and Draug to stand watch over you tonight.' she faintly heard, straining to hear his voice.


Tania startled awake, sitting straight up in her bed. "Something bad happened." she said, frowning at the mood in the castle. The sunset was a mass of angry pink, lighting up the sky for a final hour. Tania slowly slipped out of bed, putting on her slippers before wandering the castle looking for the others. "Where are they?" she muttered, finally stumbling to the entrance to Vexous' chamber. There Acheron and a young vampire she had never seen before were talking, so Tania walked up to the small girl and asked "Do you want me to find you somewhere to sleep? Will you be staying here long?"

Nix laughed as a young vampire wondered past him and into the chamber where everyone was.

Nix steped back just in time to miss the worst of the sword swing, the tip bearly swiped the side of his cheeck. He new that he was lucky for the dragon that stood infront of him could have easily took his life while he was ease dropping.

When th lycon came snareling out of the room he knew instantly who it was. "Hush puppy I know you were taught better manners. Boy would your mommy's feelings be hurt" as he steped out of the shadows arms up towards the sky. "I mean no ill will"

Vexous sighed, it was peaceful here, once she gagged the captives that is, standing up she stretched, all colour had come back to her, she wasn't shaking anymore.
Josephene i think i understand, but i dear not think of it, the pain is nothing you can imagine she replied, as for Acheron, i'm not sure his powers are developing rapidly but i do doubt he can here you, i think i can only hear you because my blood ruins through your veins and does yours mine
she shimmered to her shadow form and glided up through the castle, back into her own room.
"okay i'm back, all refreshed and ready to go..... i sense too new comers, walking out her bedroom door she saw the tiger holding a young vampire. "oh my you are very young" she said walking closer, "are you newly turned?"

Ach smiled as she came back, he inclined his head as she walked past, grabbing her dressing gown he placed it on her shoulders.
he was itching to talk to Josephene but dare not, that would give away who he was. the dragon blood that ran through him was the same as both vexous and the Chimera, she could hear there thoughts easier but would never act on it.

alice was alittle shocked by all the people she could tell that they werent human but what were they that was the question. she looked at tania "i just came here thinking it was empty so no i wont be staying." she wondered why so many people were here in the first place they didnt look like a family and they certenly wernt a shop or anykind she had seen 'damn i got to get out of here soon i need to find someplace to stay the night im getting tired.' before she relised it alice let out a huge yawn. she looked at vexous "no i have been for awhile long story but the story version is i got sick and my mom made a deal with the local to turn me and it cost her her own life as well as my brother and father." she looked down as she said that she missed them everyday but talking about it made it worse "the worst part was i was the one who did it."

Turning to Acheron, Josephine put up a mental wall between them, then put a small pinprick hall in it. Focusing all her energy into making her Telepathy travel through that hole to him she said, 'Acheron, Acheron? Can you hear me?' she waited tentatively for his reply. "MISTRESS" came the loud voice of joy as a small sparrow shot through the window. 'Roirraw, It hasn't been that long since I last saw you, you know.' "I know mistress, I just love seeing you that's all." his eyes beamed with joy. 'Okay, Okay. Everyone,' Josephine started, using her broad Telepathy, 'This is Roirraw, one of my Sparrow friends, as you can hear, he is a Mutant like myself.' She smiled, staring at him. Roirraw stood with his legs apart and his feet outstrecthed, and spoke in her voice. "This is Roirraw, one of my Sparrow friends, as you can hear, he is a Mutant like myself. At least that's what she was saying." he finished in his own voice, a vibrant chirp.

Tania glanced at the young vampire, shocked, "B-But you're a vampire? You don't sleep at night. You wake up at night." She was even more shocked when a strange, unknown voice echoed from Vexous' room. 'I'll check it out later.' she thought to herself.


(I'm kinda at a lose for what to do with Tania untill she gets turned...)

Acheron looked toward the Chimera again, "i can hear you just fine, why do you ask?" ach felt a little shocked she cant speak....... father what did you do anger welded up in him but he didn't let it show, he had to check up the illusion of him being a stranger, it's the only way this will work she thought to himself.

Vexous smiled at the creature, "i dont mean to be rude but you seem almost clueless cant you tell what creatures were are?" she asked what this? did her master not train her? she frowned as the girl yawned, "you know Tania's right it's not natural for you to be tired at night... have you feed?" Vexous was a little worried for the little thing.

'Because I'm not talking out loud, and you are human. I'm almost mute, but I can say one word. I can say mother.' Josephine replied to Acheron, tears welling up in her eyes. 'I can also speak through my talented sparrow friends,' she laughed out, seemingly at random. 'I can't speak because I'm a Chimera, just so you don't have to ask. I was never supposed to be part human, so my creator didn't think of adding something like coherent speech.' Josephine looked at him closely, bending in to see better. 'You look familiar, have I met you before?'


"Mistress Vexous, are you alright? Everyone sounded worried about you." Tania said, looking at Vexous with a worried eye. "Should we reschedule my turning? So all of this will be resolved by the time I wake up a vampire?"

"i fed this morning but not other than that plus i have a weird sleep pattern thats all its nothing to be worried about i have always rather been afraid of the night since well i still have the body of a eight year old people dont always take kindly to that when you out at night by yourself and your eight." alice had no idea why she was still talking but something was telling her to keep talking to her and not go anywere it was like the place could be her new home "plus i might look young but if i counted corectly im about twenty or something i cant really remember."

Vexous thank Acheron for the gown, "No Tania this is an important night for you, it may be a good idea to feed first Rasul" she spoke to both of them "i wish you both good luck, and call for me if anything goes wrong"
wolf i have a bad feeling about this, if worse comes to worse will you help?
"i'm sorry to worry you Tania, and the rest of you to, but as you can see i'm fine" she winked at Tania have fun girl
"you are indeed young little one, i'm over 600 years old" she giggles alittle, "if you have no where else to go, we have plenty of rooms here" she offered

Acheron stared at the Chimera is disbelief, "no i dont think so, no offense but i've never meet anyone with a tail.... except for that guy" she said pointing at the tiger " oh and the wolf to" she smiled at her. oh GOD please dont remember.. not yet anyway
"i think i may see to the others" she said as he somewhat rushed away from her.
"so um i was wrong there was something here, sorry i could see it" she said to the dragon
looking at the new comer, "and you would be?"

Darious could sense other spirit in HIS castle, i will find you he was tracking him closer and closer to lady Vexous's room. the bastard, was he spying on Lady Vexous
entering the room, floating a foot above ground he glared at every one. "My lady, good evening, i'm sorry to trouble you but have you seem a ghost... i mean apart from me?" he asked Tania

'Oh, it's fine, I probably saw one of your relatives in a nearby town.' Josephine passed it off with a shrug, 'Draug, where are you and Lacsar? Roirraw is already here.' Josephine looked at her sorry excuse for clothes, and left to find Vexous. She walked out the door of the bedroom, and ran into Tania, Rasul, and Vexous having a conversation. 'Roirraw, speak to them for me please. I'm sorry to bother you but I need new clothes to wear.' "My Mistress would like to relay this message." He said in his voice, before continuing in Josephine's "I'm sorry to bother you, but I need new clothes. That's all."

Tania startled as the man appeared and started to ask her questions. "No, why do you ask? Thank you Vexous." she added, before turning to Rasul. "You lead the way and I'll follow." she told him with a smile, she was just about to go when the Chimera walked out and asked for new clothes. "You'll have to ask Vexous about it, I don't really have anything that would work for you."

alice smiled "i might take you up on that offer since im kinda at a loss for a place and im getting tired of going from place to place it gets tiring." when she heard how old alice laughed "no way i dont belive you their is no way your that old." she looked up into space she was thinking for something to ask then suddenly she burst out of her trans to ask "if your that old dont you have like kids or grandkids or even great grandkids."

Theikos quickly scanned the entirety of the vampire's mind. It wasn't something that he loved to do, but it did need to be done in order to keep everyone in the castle safe. Sliding his sword back into his scabbard, he answered Acheron's question, "I'm Theikos, cousin to the current Dragon Emperor, though I'm not sure how long his reign will last." If worse came to worse, he would have to secure the throne before somebody evil could take it. Ah, the life of a noble, Theikos thought bitterly as he walked away from all of the commotion.

lilith was asleep in a small cottage that was abandoned not far from the castle she was going to stay the night since it was so late. her dreams were nothing but her reading her favorite thing to do all throught the dream she just went from page to page in a blank book trying to read what wasnt their. it was a strange dream its true but it put lilith in peace because she knew one day that book would open and be full of words her words of her life so when she died she could go over it again and again. she was peacefully asleep when suddenly she fell out of bed 'ouch that hurt i wonder what time it is.' she got up and dusted herself off it was going to be a long night of no more sleep she could tell 'mabye i should just start walking to my next destanation.' she opened a map and lit a candle so she could see better the place was so dark who could stand it unless they were asleep 'ok so i came from here and now im probably somewere around here so mabye i should head to the nearest village but what about the castle i wonder whats in their.' she folded up the map again 'thats it i will go check out the castle mabye if im lucky their might be some books unless its like this place then i will just stay the night their.' she blew out the candle and left the cottage heading towards the castle.

((Sorry if I don't reply for a while. I've started school already so I can't get on until afternoon. x/ ))

Rasul glanced from Vexous to Tania with a "She's coming with me?" expression. But he shrugged. It might be better for her to see how it's done before she became overcome with blood lust. He bowed to Vexous, turned and left, walking back down the stairs and toward the front door. "If seeing me feed alters your decision even slightly, tell me. This won't be like all the times you cleaned up blood from the floor because the human won't already be dead," he said softly, pushing open the front door and holding it open for her to pass. He debated for a moment whether or not to tell her something else. Finally he sighed. "I take it Vexous has told you about avoiding slipping into the darkness while I am draining you? There is something else I'll personally advise you against because I want you to survive this and I'm a little different from the others. If you truely want to be turned no matter what, don't try to struggle away if it starts to hurt," he warned, stepping out into the street. "It will...provoke me."

Tania stared at Rasul, "I-I'll try my best not to struggle, or go into the darkness. Whi-While your biting me, ma-may I," Tania started blushing "May I hold onto you, so if it hurts I can just grab onto you instead of struggling." She looked down at her feet, still in her slippers and nightgown. "So, can I?" she asked, looking at Rasul.

Josephine stood, still waiting for an answer to her clothes question, when two large sparrows flew straight at her. "Hey guys, you finally made it. Man you are SLOOOW!" Roirraw chimed from Josephines shoulder. "That's because we were looking for you IDIOT!" Lacsar practically roared. "Lacsar, go easy on him, he's just a kid." Draug started talking in the younger sparrows defense. "He didn't mean any harm. He was just having fun beating us old timers." 'Come on Lacsar, we all know you used to do that whenever the flock was going somewhere.' Josephine said, laughing.

(Yay! Tania's about to be a vampire! *Dances*)

"Hus... Hush PUPPY!? I'm no puppy!! Nix who the hell do you think you are calling me puppy and no my mama..." Mikhial started to rant as he sent to the vampire in the shadows. Then as he started to slow down in his ranting he realized just exactly who he was talking to. "NIX!? Nix is that really you?" Mikhial sent excitedly as he barked playfuly and and pounced the vampire to the ground. Shoving his nose in Nix's face as he sniffed him. "Well I'll be the son of a... It really is you. What in the world are you doing here? Shouldn't you be stuffing trunks or something?" Mikhial sent openly (so any one could hear it) as he backed off from Nix and sat down beside him.

Mikhial was almost to caught up in his excitment to hear Vexous sending to him. He then bounded to his feet as if startled. "Nix, I've been invited to watch a turning of a human, for safty purposese.. I guses." Mikhial seemed a little puzzeled about that himself as he sent to Nix. "Do you wish to join... or I mean... Is it okay if I do attend?" Mikhial finished sending as he bowed down to Nix playfully.

Rasul looked down at his faithful servant girl and his copper eyes shone with human emotion for a moment. He nodded. "If you must," he said with finality. He walked down the stone streets and made almost no sound, slipping into predatorial mode. He liked to prey on the humans who were of no use to the society around them. He came across a woman in brightly colored clothing that hung low and was slightly on the translucent side. He turned to Tania. "Stay in the shadows. They'll keep their guard up if they think I'm not alone. But stay in my sight," he advised and lifted his head high before turning a corner so that when he walked up to the women he wasn't appearing out of a dark alley but rather down the well-lit, safe sidewalk. As he passed he reached out delicately and stroked the woman's exposed collarbone with his pointer and middle finger. She winked and followed him willingly as he sauntered back into the darker part of the streets and glanced at Tania to make sure she was still doing alright. And just like that he had a fly in his web with almost no effort on his part.

Tania watched as Rasul walked down the well-light sidewalk, straight for a woman who had no idea what was going to happen to her. 'Humans are such stupid creatures, we have no idea of what really goes on around us. I'm so glad I will no longer be part of this pitiful race.' she thought to herself smiling. Tania walked stealthily into the darkest area of shadow she could find, where she could still watch what was going on. 'I finally get to watch how vampires feed.' Tania thought happily to herself, watching Rasul intently.

(Nothing for Josephine right now)

"of course it's me you silly mongreal. I am here on a whim of a dream." Nix replied as he used his trench coat sleeve to wipe slober from his face and sit back up " Please let us keep work and play seperate you realy don't have to adress me lik that you are no longer under my families pay role" are you?he sent to Mikhail. "As for helping supervious a turning I wouldn't want to intrude but if I am welcome I will gladely accompanie you"

Mikhial frowned at what Nix had to say about it being on the whim of a dream. He knew Nix often had visions and could even recall times when Nix would run around screaming still thinking he was in his vision. He only wondered what the vision must of been of. Considering that Nix deamed it important enough to track him down.

"Work and play..." Mikhial ponder out loud in his sending. "You know my kind, those two things are one in the same!" He continued. "And as far as the pay role goes.. its only when were needed.. I think..." He sent even though it was more in wonderment to himself.

"I don't imagen there would be any problem with it. Perhaps we shall ask Vexous on our way to the living room. I think that is where we shall wiat for this... event?" Mikhial sent as he began to trot down the hall way.

"Ah a briliant idea, although i do not believe i will be needed if the dragon and wercat will be coming as well" Nix thought aloud to all that could hear.
