The trees seemed to get thicker and darker the longer the girls ran on. The horses shook their heads wildly, as if afraid of the very thing they had come from. Ari closed her eyes, trying to focus on calming the horses, but instead her horse reared up, throwing her off. She landed on the ground with a thunk, her hair flying out wildly. She stood, her eyes glowing white, and the horse let off an ear-splitting 'scream.' The neigh carried to the other girls who had run ahead, unable to stop their horses. Their animals stopped abruptly, and Ari came charging through, her hair flying, her horse running,his mane whipping, his tail billowing out behind him.

The other horses reared their heads and charged forward, thundering up to Ari. She cried out in joy and stood up, the wind rushing past her, making her feel elated, joyous. They charged ahead, getting after and faster, heading off to Dover.

"Those stupid horses nearly gave me away."

"Stop grumbling and follow them. You want the girl, don't you?"

"Yes, Nerezza. More than anything, I want to feel her heart in my hand. I want to lap up her blood. This time, she will not get away."

"Good." Nerezza slid back into the darkness.

"Is this it?" The town was dirty and dusty. The building a were all in disrepair. There was no sign of a nightclub, or anyplace that would even consider selling alcohol.

"I think so." The dusty streets were empty, no sign of life anywhere. Not even a stray animal. Continuing down the road, the girls began to feel hopeless. There was no way they could find the man with no place to go to.

Suddenly... "Guys! I hear something!"

The girls followed Analaa down the streets, taking lefts then rights then lefts. A final left turn, and they found themselves standing in front of neon lights and huge buildings. They were all one or two story, hidden behind a wall of old, abandon shells.

"There!" Fly tied the horses up while Namaka led the other girls to a dance club.

"So, Ana, what's the plan?" Asked Nam.

"Well, here it is."
