Michael dreamt that he was in a castle.

One made from stone, with towering walls. He knew it was huge from the drop he could see from his position by an opening that would've been a window in modern times.

The drop was enough to make him feel nauseous despite the grizzly scene in front of his very eyes.

Blood was everywhere. Sprayed across the walls and soaking the ground. The viscous liquid was spreading from the corpses on the floor. Bodies slashed and hacked into pieces. They didn't stand a chance.

Michael heard a scream and ran to the origin.

The first thing he noticed was a young brunette being held captive by a familiar man. His arms seemed to tighten around the females smaller frame as another female stood in front of them. Her back was to Michael but she was also familiar.

"You know what you have to do Ana. Join me, you will never die, never grow old. But you must feed." The man's voice was cold and full of unspoken threats aimed at the girl in front of him.

The strangest thing was Michael knew they were speaking a different language, but he knew what they were saying as if they were speaking plain English instead.

He caught a glimpse of the girl's face and gasped. She looked like Mina. Or rather a Mina that had gone through hell. Her hair resembled a birds nest, tangled and frizzy rather than the controlled chaos that Michael recognised. The teenager's dark eyes looked sunken due to the bruised bags underneath them. Dirt and grime coated her pale skin, her dress was coated in dried blood. Blood that had probably came from the bodies where he first started.

Ana, as the man had called her, had tears in her eyes as she looked at the girl the man held hostage. She looked utterly heartbroken at the girl's position and was prepared to give in to the man's wishes. But the smaller of the women shook her head and the claws held to her throat grazed her skin.

"Ana," She spoke with an accent Michael had faintly heard whenever Mina spoke. "Please."

Tears ran down her face and Ana seemed to understand what she meant. The Mina lookalike shook her head and clenched her fists.

"I will never join you Maximillian." She spat with barely contained rage "Never."

The man, Maximillian, only sighed.

"I warned you Ana. Now it appears we have to do this the hard way."

It happened too fast for Michael. One second Maximillian was holding the girl, the next she was choking. Crimson stained the previously white material as Ana screamed in agony. The man had slit her throat.
