I didnt remember what time we made it back to the cave, or how i made it to the bed. All i could think of was charles as I hug the shoe and bear close to my heart. I could not cry, i had cried so much at the boradwalk Im pretty sure I was all out of tears. As I laid there I felt the bed shift and two arms wrapped around me, I knew it was Dwayne but I still didn't move.

Im not sure how long I stayed in that bed it felt like days, maybe weeks. I felt to weak and to scared to move, laddie had often climed in bed with me and talked to me. I just listened not that it did any good id just forget about the conversation within minutes.

As for Dwayne he was always gone, he barly stayed with me. He had for the first 2 days, hed lay in bed with me all day and all night only leaving to feed. But no he was never here, he was always gone doing i dont know what. Id spin the ring he proposed to me with on my finger while trying to sleep or take my mind off of charles but it never worked.

Dwayne.......

As time passed i became more and more worried about Emery. I had begun searching for Charles everywhere I could, I had checked the beach a thousand times, stores, abandoned houses, anywhere I could think of. I had even gone back to there place and check and see if he was there but there was nothing.

I was walking the boardwalk looking through the crowds trying to find any sign of him. I was going to go back to Emery as F had already fead but then I seen it a poster about a travling Gypsy Caravan, I knew Emery was part gypasy and i knew how they could pradict the future through card readings. Grabbing the poster I hoped on my bike and drove to the woods where the caravan was sat up.

"Where you going Dwayne?" David asked through out link

"There is a gypsy caravan im going to see if they can help us"

"They will know what you are, they wont help"

"Maybe if i explain to them about Emery they will"

"We'll get her and meet you there" was the last thing he said.

I pulled up to the caravan only to be stopped by a man "what are you doing here vampire?" His accent was thick showing he was a pure gypsy.

"I need help my fiancee and I lost our son hes been missing for over 2 weeks now" I explained

"What makes you think he is alive?"

"He has to be I cant lose him" I turn to see Emery she is still holding the bear and bloody shoe to her, The boys close behind her.

"Why should we help?"

"Please, she is half gypsy she needs your help" I said getting desperate.

The man looked to Emery walking around her and studied her closely. "We will help the girl, but you all must stay here" he began walking Emery following close behing.

Emery........

I was nervous to go without Dwayne but I had to find charles and it there was any hope....hope? Was that possible at this point?.

"My name is Siegfried by the way, and your name is Emery?" He asked still walking.

"Yes" was all i could say

He lead me to a small cart and knocked on the door. The cart moved a little as the door opened reviling a small old woman. She had long gray hair that was pind up she wore a long skirt with large gold earings. "Siegfried? What is a halfling doing here?" Her voice was raw and used her hands shaking.

"She needs your help Ms. Yaga" she looked at me and studied my clothes. I had chaned into before comeing here

She motioned for me to follow her as she headed deeper into the cart

She motioned for me to follow her as she headed deeper into the cart. Climbing in she sat down at a small table and started shuffling a set of tarot cards. Sitting in the chair across from her I what anxiously siegfried was now sitting on the steps of the cart. She slid the cards out in a long row looking at me as she gestures to the cards.

I run my hand over them picking up one then another and one more layung rhem side by side. Ms. Yaga beginns the reading dlipping kver my first card, the fool knowing that this card means new bigginings and having faith i had begung to gain hope of seeing charles. Slowly she moved to the next card.

The Ace of Pentacles my eyes widen as i remember that card when i had my first reading. It had been some time after my father hax raped me i had went to a local reaxer anx she pradicted my pregnancy before I ever knew it. "You will have a baby making good change for you and your fiancee" she said going to flip over the next card.

Turnning it over i feel my hear drop intomy stomach suddenly feeling sick...death. I had seen my father get riddings once he had death anx the next thing we knew my grandmother was gone. She had died in her sleep of old age scens then he seen readings as evil. Ms. Yaga looked at me grabbing my hand "dont worry child this card does not always mean death it can mean change" she looked somewhat said as she squeezed my hand "a change you are not willing to let happen".

I sat there feeling tears run down my face as I listend to her, there was a small wind coming through the open door making the winchimes clink together. Grabbing both my hands Yaga makes me face her. "I belive your son is alive, but he does not have long find him, save him as long as you dont lose hope there is still a chance".

As soon as she let go I ran out of the cart and back to Dwayne running up to him and wrappjng my arms around him. "Theres a chance Charles is still alive! We have to find him theres still hope" i said looking up into his eyes.
