Preston England, Louise is sat at her mum's wearing, light blue jeans, black and pink Reebok classic trainers, a low cut red spaghetti top. Her black hoodie is lying over the arm of the couch. Joy asked Louise to come over for tea and watch the kids until she finishes work. Phoebe and Billie have gone out with friends. Alexander is sat upstairs playing on his PlayStation and Matilda is sat in front of Louise on the floor surrounded by books and her laptop, she's typing and writing down notes on her note pad, she's wearing her school uniform as she did her homework and wanted to find out what language was on that bolder up at the top pond.

"This has to be it Lou." Matilda says and hands the notebook to her, Louise takes it and smiles. "Sorry Tilly but that's not it." Louise tells her. "Are you joking?" Matilda says sounding exasperated. "No. It doesn't say death is soon. That's not even close." Louise tells her. "Well just tell me what it says as I've tried every human text to ever exist and several demonic. I can't work it out." She says sounding defeated and lays down on the floor looking up at the high ceiling. "I think it's a made up language we should just forget about it." Louise tells her.

Matilda looking defeated sits up and shakes her head. She grabs the book next to her laptop and hands it to Louise. Louise opens it and sees that it's the same hieroglyphics as the bolder. "This is the diary of Benjamin Asmall and Louise Anderson." Louise reads out. Matilda just stares at her in shock, Louise looks up from the book and sees Matilda staring at her open-mouthed. "What?" Louise asks her. "You can read it?" Matilda states. "Of course I can, you know I can read the bolder." Louise says to her. "I honestly thought you could read the bolder because you so it in a vision I didn't think you could read these hieroglyphics." Matilda says to her just as Alexander comes downstairs to make a drink and so crisps.

He comes back and sits next to Louise and looks at the book while munching on his crisps. "That looks like Kryptonian from Smallville." Alexander says. Matilda and Louise look at him. "Are you sure?" Matilda asks him. "Yea it looks just like it, this eight in the triangle is the letter S." He says to her. "He's right as it is an S." Louise tells her. Matilda has a confused look on her face as it's not possible, and she begins typing on her laptop.

"For God's sake it is. How is that possible. That book is over 300 years old, and this version was created in 2000." Matilda tells them and shows Louise her laptop screen. "How many of these books did you find in Vlad's home after the fight?" Louise asks her. "An entire crate full, there in dad's workshop." Matilda tells her. "So that means Amon must own or sold this writing to DC comics." Johnathan says. "According to the date here May 26th 1661. I'd guess that this is the first diary, it's funny as that's my birthday." Louise states.

She then hands the diary to Matilda. "Scan this and put in the Kryptonian alphabet to translate it. If it works scan the rest." Louise tells her. Matilda smiles as she loves learning new things, so she grabs the books on the floor and begins to clean up before taking the diary downstairs with a huge smile on her face. "What do you think wrote in them diaries?" Alexander asked Louise. "Amon wasn't a vampire in 1661, so it'll be an insight into the human. But I think the other diaries could be the horrific things that he did." She tells him.

BDA Enterprises Joy walks into Kirsten's office wearing, black suit pants, with black two-inch high heels, a white low cut thin strap top and a black blazer. She has an envelope under in her hand, being Kirsten's assistant she doesn't need to knock as she's free to come and go as she pleases. She finds Daniel in a three-piece dark gray suit, Amy wearing a black leather pencil skirt, a white shirt with the top few buttons open to show off her red bra and a black leather jacket hanging over the back of her chair.

Joy stops as she didn't know Kirsten was in a meeting. She has no clue who the red head is. "I'm so sorry Mrs Duke." Joy says sounding apologetic. "It's fine Joy. I was just about to send for you. This is Amy Summers our new temporary CEO." Kirsten tells her. "It's nice to meet you miss Summers." Joy says to her. "It's Mrs Summers miss Johnston." Amy says to her. "I'm sorry. Mrs Summers." Joy says sounding embarrassed. "It's fine, you didn't know. I'm still getting used to it myself." Amy giggles out. Then it clicks as Joy recognises who Amy is. "You're Pulchra Daemonium." She says in pure shock. "Not anymore. I'm just Amy." She says to her.
