Fangs And Blood

Meanwhile...

"Where did those pesky vampires go?!" Mika roared out, flying out and about. She tried her hardest to track their scents but to no avail. "Nothing... where would they go if they wanted to evade me? I've tried everywhere else!"

She snarled and glanced around more. She soon noticed the waterfall and smirked. "Aha! Thought you could escape from be, Beejay darling? Think again!"

She flew into the waterfall, quick and steady. She found the tunnel and headed through, only to be met by a sparkled gate.

"What?!" she snarled.

"You may not enter!" A fairy guard cried, coming out from the shadows to face her.

"I don't believe you know who I am," Mika chuckled. "I am a princess! Now, if you let me in, I'll see about not drinking YOUR blood!"

"We fear you not!" Another guard came, holding out a cross with garlic on it. "Begone, demon!"

"Ack!" Mika hissed.

The smell of the revolting garlic was strong, but Mika knew she had to be stronger to claim her prize.She released a roar, breaking the cross. One guard threw holy water at her, causing her to sizzle and yelp. But, she knew she had to be stronger than anything these guards threw at her, so... she would have to use all of her power against them. Her eyes glowed red before she attacked one of the guards. The other gasped and ran back to the palace to get help.

"Your majesty! Your majesty!"

"What is the matter?" Jamie stood up in alarm.

"It's Mika! Somehow she has found her way here!"

"MIKA?!?" In came Crusher, who dashed as quickly as he could.

"Wake the mortals, Beejay and Xander," the queen instructed. "We must get the prince, the mortals and foals and fillies to safety."

"No..." Crusher said, stopping the guard. "She wants me. Take care of my friends and family. I'll deal with her."

"Are you sure, Prince Crusher?" Jamie asked worriedly.

"I've been causing so much pain since I got here. Xander got stabbed because of me, they both got injured because of me... it's only right that I take on Mika and get it over with. The vampire kingdom doesn't need me. They need my father. Tell Blaze and AJ to use their powers to protect the foals and fillies. Just... leave Mika to me."

"..." Jamie didn't know what to say as Crusher turned and headed off to face Mika.

But, before Crusher could get to where Mika was, he used what his father taught him, and placed a forcefield around the palace to protect everyone and keep them inside.

From inside, Pickle saw the force field and gasped. "Oh no... EVERYONE!! WAKE UP!!! HURRY!!!"

They all were alarmed and ran out. Beejay and Xander also woke up and gasped at the force field.

"Where did that come from?" Beejay hissed.

"Crusher made it!" Pickle exclaimed. "He must be going to take on Mika alone!"

"Can either one of y'all get rid of it?" Starla asked.

"Unfortunately not. When a vampire forcefield is made, no other vampire can get rid of it," Xander explained.

"But could there be a weak spot?" Stripes asked.

"My guard did a flight around it-- no weak spot in sight," Jamie sighed as she approached. "Crusher must have made it extra strong to protect those he loves from harm."
