Frights, Camera, Action⁴

Your eyes shimmered——who knew that a place so old could be so beautiful? The hutch back man prattled about all the things that happened in the throne room; which is the room you were in.

You grabbed Dacian's arm and started shaking him ʻʻWhy didn't we visit your hometown before?!ʼʼ Dacian put his hand on his mouth, clearly getting slightly dizzy from you aggressively shaking him like a maraca

You felt cold metal on your arm, which seized your shaking ʻʻLet's not get him sick before his big day.ʼʼ Robert's calm and reassuring voice flowed, his Britishaccent heavenly strong. His Cogswheel shaped eyes turned, giving him a living effect.

ʻʻSorry, this place is just so amazing!ʼʼ

ʻʻOh I know! Something inside me just feels connected to this place..ʼʼ

Robert scratched his cheek—A small clinking sound came from the impact of his finger to his cheek. You glanced at the pondering steam robot who seemed lost in thought ʻʻMaybe you feel connected to the place because it's old.ʼʼ the steam punk Robot eyes widened, realizing what you were insinuating.

A playful gasp came from his iron lips ʻʻAre you implying that I'm old?ʼʼ Robert placed his hands on his hips. You tried to conceal your laughter

ʻʻWhen were you made?ʼʼ you asked the steam bot as you leaned closer; this being your attempt at interrogation ʻʻ1814 near the 19th century.ʼʼ he stated proudly

ʻʻDAMN! Uh—I mean... you look great.ʼʼ you crossed your arms, trying to play it cool to not further offend your friend. Robert's Jaw hanged open ʻʻThat kind of hurt.ʼʼ a laugh followed his sentence. Cairo walked in front of the doorway

ʻʻCan you two come on?ʼʼ

You were unaware that the group had already continued their exploration of the Romanian castle. You and Robert rushed to catch up the rest.



Claws ruffled through the clothing rack, looking at the variety of victorian clothes ʻʻThese clothes are giving me some killer inspiration.ʼʼ

Claws grabbed a dark blue dress that had designs trailing from the bottom to the top, the sleeves reached to the elbows; white floral around the sleeves and neck line, the neck line was low, it seems it would be only showing the womans neck bone.

Claws held up the dress in front of you. He closed his left eye to line up the dress to your body. You glanced at Claws, a bit curious at why he was holding up a dress in front of you

ʻʻThis dress would look so cute on you, Mama's.ʼʼ your face became warm at the new nickname. Cairo stood up and stride to Claws ʻʻOh my Ra! You're right. It would look great.ʼʼ

Robert looked over Claws' shoulder ʻʻOh that is exquisite!ʼʼ you face became extremely warm. The fact that three really hot monsters are complementing you is making you flustered. Who wouldn't be flustered?

The wooden doors creaked opened——Dacian's head hanged low; he seemed kind of off. Usually, he would have a bright smile on his face, especially if he is entering a closet filled with clothes ʻʻHey..what's going on?ʼʼ

Claws asked the sulking vampire. Dacian plopped on the seat next to you ʻʻUh, nothing.ʼʼ Dacian looked at the blue dress in Claws hands ʻʻThat's cute.

Too bad no one can wear anything to the coronation!ʼʼ Dacian leaned his head on his hand as his elbow rested on his leg

ʻʻWhat! Why?ʼʼ you placed a hand on Dacian's back, attempting to soothe his mood.

ʻʻI am not the vampire king.ʼʼ Dacian covered his face with both hands, feeling shame and regret because of how naive he was.

You rubbed circles on his back ʻʻDidn't the heart glow when you touched it?ʼʼ Robert asked

ʻʻIt was fake! He bad a remote to control the glow of the vampires heart!ʼʼ Dacian's voice started trembling ʻʻAnd he's trying to have vampires rule over all monsters!ʼʼ Dacian sniffed.

Cairo crossed his arms, irritated at the audacity of the man ʻʻOver ALL monsters?ʼʼ Dacian removed his hands from his face, and he nodded slowly ʻʻYou should refuse the crown.ʼʼ

ʻʻI can't. He has more power than me even if I become the king—I'm still considering weak.ʼʼ He's tears died down

ʻʻI mean, I don't even have my vampire powers yet!ʼʼ

You starred at the floor. If that was the fake vampire heart, where is the real one? ʻʻWait...Where is the real one?ʼʼ Dacian stood up from the plush seat.

He walked to the brick wall entrapped in the ever abyss of mind; he traced his fingers imbetween the bricks.

He gasped in realization, he turned back to his group of friends ʻʻElliot!ʼʼ you stared confused at the random name Dacian called out ʻʻHuh, who?ʼʼ Cairo raised an eyebrow.

Dacian snapped his fingers ʻʻMy friend, he was supposed to be the vampire king, but he ran away!ʼʼ Robert clasped his hands together ʻʻRight then, do you know where he is?ʼʼ Dacian shook his head, he visible slumped

ʻʻHe kind of just...disappearedʼʼ Claws placed a hand on Dacian's shoulder ʻʻNo one could just disappear, we should try to find some clues or something.ʼʼ Claws interjected.

Dacian folded his arms and bit his lip, his brows furrowed; he tried thinking back to his childhood years till it came to him. ʻʻHold on there was this place that him and I would always sneak off toʼʼ

ʻʻbut you need a distractionʼʼ
