The Vampire & The Vixen

Master Cerulli

Elizabeth's POV ~ 

Oh fuck.

My eyes finally were able to open up all the way, the light coming in from the blinds, no longer burning them.

I was in a bottom bunk with 2 other bunks, all fully occupied. Which told me that I should assume someone was above me as well.

The last memory I had was giving the rather frightening man a hell of a time on an airplane as he took some of my blood for only who knows what.

That's when things went black.

I stayed quiet for about another hour until this awful alarm went sounding off in their room. All of the girls except for the one across from me jumped up, quickly got dressed, grabbed a backpack and were out of the room in less than 10 minutes. What the fuck?

This whole thing was just getting more weirder. Why did everyone have to get up so fast and head out? All except this one across from me. Did this mean she was in trouble or were the other ones in the wrong? Or were they simply not expected to do the same things?

There were about a million questions I had, and not a single damn one of them was going to get answered by laying here.

I cautiously snuck out of the bed and grabbed the extra black hooded cape/coat hanging on the wall that most likely belonged to the girl still sleeping, and with a bit of a prayer, I got out of the door and saw that there were still thankfully a few people out and about, all wearing the same black caped coat as I now was, or the guys were all wearing matching black long sleeved dress shirts.

Running up to a group of about 10-15 girls, I was able to see some of their faces more up close. I'd say the youngest was probably 18 and the oldest would appear to be right around my age, 20.

"Wake up, late?" The younger looking one giggled.

"Um, yeah. " I muttered, shrugging my shoulders and not really wanting to get into too much of a conversation with anyone until I had a better idea of what was going on.

"Come on, let's get to class before we're late." Another girl stated, nodding towards this huge fucking castle that I was now just noticing.

It was seriously magnificent, and it had this Dracula-esque feel to it, except it was smaller than Bran Castle - but no less magnificent.

The walk there ended up being about 20 minutes and we were walking through the main door.

I continued to say nothing and walked through the hallways with such high ceilings, and torches along the walls until we split off to the right and the few boys still hanging around split off into the left wing.

Ok, so why were the guys separated from the girls? Were these people even here of their own will?

Hopefully, I'd have some questions answers pretty soon.
