Once there was a young bat princess, a spoiled and mean one. An Enchantress turns her into a vampire and puts a powerful spell on the castle and all who lived there. A handsome red echidna finds a castle where his adoptive father is held a prisoner...
Meanwhile, Vector, Espio, and Charmy (who was awake) have been dropped off at the village by the werecreature. They knew one girl who could handle a job like theirs but they didn't have to like it. On their way, they met Silver Rose: another merchant.

Silver: Vector, what are you and Espio doing back so early?
Vector: Where's Fiona? We need her help! Fiona!
Silver: Vector, calm down, (Touches him) oh my emeralds, your freezing!
Vector: Not now, Silver! We need Fiona!
Silver: Just calm down and tell us what happened. Where's Knuckles?
Espio: Well, Knuckles is... He's...
Charmy: He's captured! (Covers his mouth as the tavern people gasp in shock)
Silver: Captured by who?
Charmy: In a castle, a vampire princess is keeping him there. (Does body language) She had blood-red spots on her fur, sharp fangs, and powerful claws!
Silver: How did you guys escape?
Vector: It was me that was there. A trade had to be done. My own child: Knuckles had to stay to make me live.
Silver: Poor Knuckles...
Espio: I know...
One of the crowd people: *Laughs* Good one, Knuckles trapped in a tower.
Espio: It's not a story and stop laughing right now.
Fiona: (Appears from the crowd) Knuckles in a tower.
Vector: (Rushes over to Fiona) Fiona! *Sigh* There you are.
Fiona: If I overheard right, Knuckles was captured, right?
Charmy: Aparently!!
Fiona: (Thinking that she could use Vector to get Knuckles for herself) Alright then, Tangle, let's go!
Tangle: I'm comin', I'm comin'. Geez. (Stops when she sees a purple swallow) Oh, hi, I'm Tangle. What's your name?
Swallow: Wave, Wave the Swallow. I moved in here.
Tangle: Cute, good to see some faces here-(Gets grabbed by Fiona)-Hey! Maybe we can continue when I get back!
Fiona: So Vector, you said she's a vampire like Charmy said, right?
Vector: Yeah, she was a head shorter than Espio but was really strong.
Tangle: V-vampire?! I hate vampires...
Fiona: It's okay, Tangle. We got this.
As they leave into the forest, Knuckles will understand of how the creatures at the castle aren't dangerous.
