"Wow, you have a wonderful home Lord Count!" says Asan,
"Cut the pleasantries...your in! Now explain yourself! Why here why us?" snaps Ingrid with a hint of annoyance,
"Everyone has heard of the famous Count Dracula in my Village! Stories of you X points to the hearts of my people..." The count lets out a satisfied hum,
"Oh really! how very astute of them!" he says,
"We have heard tales of a fearsome warrior! A powerful leader! And a great hunter!" Ingrid tries not to burst out laughing "You are a legend Lord Count!"
"You know! I rather like this boy after all!" he says, bragging to no one in particular,
"I have come to ward you of the great danger you are in!" Asan says, with a grim tone, Sally (Vlad's REAL mother) and George(As in Georgia, Vlad's half sister) huddled closer together.
"There's always a catch! What danger!" says Ingrid looking at the boy,
"From the vampire that destroyed my home, left me a refugee," he pauses, everyone becomes un-easy...even the Count, "Ramanger," he says looking at Vlad.
"Ramanger!" The Count's eyebrows rose, he laughed "Nonsense! I had him de-fanged!" he adds a pop,
"He seeks revenge on all those who crossed or shamed him!" The Count looks at Vlad,
"A life time's work I should think!"
"You said he destroyed your village. Why didn't you fight!" says Ingrid, highly unconvinced,
"How do you fight shadows," he says,
"Shadows," says The Count holding a finger up,
"Ramanger has resurrected the shadow warriors," Says Asan,
"No! The shadow warriors were rounded up years ago and condemned by the vampire high council. There's no way..."
"Ramager found a way. A mixture of vampire and voodoo magic!" he says,
"I'm sorry! Shadow warriors?" says Sally, "Would someone like to explain?"
"Utterly powerful and almost impossible to defeat! The ultimate weapon!" says The Count,
"Shadow warriors, A mixture of vampire and demon, with the ability to turn into shadows! They materialize into Human form only long enough to kill," explains Ingrid,
"They were banned under the vampire convention" finishes Vlad.
"Alright then! I think I might take that holiday I promised myself! Perhaps Stoke? Visit the remains of my old castle!" He turns to the door but Ingrid turns up in front of him in a flash.
"Your staying right here 'fiersome warrior'," she mocks, The Count groans,
"Vlad, This is really starting to frighten me! Are we really in danger?" Asks Sally. Vlad takes in a breath,
"Its not possible! These creatures were wiped out years ago!" says Vlad,
"You don't believe me!" Asan lifts a small box out of his bag, " Perhaps you might listen to one of your own!"
