Vlad returned to find Gale not in his room but taking a bath in the communal bathroom. He tried the door but it was locked. 'Good girl' he thought. His ears heard the door unlock but no one at the door. Gale could stealth walk but no sound at all?

Hovering?

No he could hear her still in the bathtub.

"Oh hi! Funny I could have sworn the door was locked tight..." Gale said sheepishly.

Vlad tilted his head and studied her. He gently brushed her mind for deceit but he found none. Yet her mind was tightly closed and perhaps she could lie, even to a vampire.

Hmm?

Lie telepathically to a powerful mind reader?

Elude even the Vampire King's ability with reading minds?

What else could tha clever mind do?

Not telekinesis too..?

The Undead King got a semi hard on, just at the thought of what she could do, with it. As for her flight, it seemed enhanced from just weather-wind to produce flight. Yet there were pockets of air in the sky, that the wind couldn't keep her weight a lift.

True flight?

The body movements were like swimming, could indicate something called true flight. That power was even a mystery to Shadow King.

A side effect of telekinesis?

Whatever it was, if she combined true flight and wind, how fast could she fly? How strong could her storms get? Vlad aka Alucard knew he had only felt a taste, of the strength she possessed.

A prize, his prize...His.

More than anything, Gale would become a 'hot' commodity, once found out by others. The worse being another vampire...

His quick research concluded, that the rival vampire did indeed walk the earth still and had property, about 50 miles ( 80 km) south. He was too close to Gale, being the nature of what he was. His surname had been Dietrich. Dietrich had his own brand of cruelty, before becoming a vampire, that he loved to inflict on humans and vampire alike.

Vlad didn't need to worry but Gale was a target.

"Vlad are you okay? You seem lost in thought prince..." Gale inquired, looking over her shoulder.

She turned her head farther and held a wine glass up. "This has a most intriguing taste but is not quite the same, as last night's. A secret ingredient is missing, which makes it from intriguing, to exquisite."

"Very good, draga mea but that secret ingredient is costly and rare. I do not share that taste of wine, very often or with very many. That was your first and last drink of it," Vlad replied in an irritated tone.

Gale was not to be drinking without his supervision.

"Oh forgive my rudeness. I best be getting dressed or I shall make you late, for your stroll through Munich. I have but one place, to visit but only at night...tonight," Gale said in a serious tone.

Gale now rose from the tub, as steam in turn, rose from her body. Vlad realized the water had been boiling, at one point but her skin was only slightly pink, like a blush not a burn. How cold or hot did it need to be for an environmental damage?

"I didn't pack much for clothes, so you are far more well dressed, than I will be..." the young woman stated, all business still.

Gale opened the door to leave when The Prince stepped quickly and slammed the door shut. "I would prefer, if not everyone sees you, as such..."
