Blood Countess (On Hold)

Chapter 3

Seth and Ivy were hand in hand, at the bleachers.

"You know, the new girl's a de Montford." Ivy said.

"She seems nice,"

Ivy looked at Seth and gave him the what-the-hell look.

"The de Montfords are witches, Seth, and that's what we need."

"How do you know that?"

"One of her ancestors used to date my grandmama, until he found out that my grandmama was a vampire," Ivy paused for a while before continuing, "Remember the time I told you about the Elizabeth Bathory's golden chalice? We can get the new girl to bring her back to life."

"So all we need is some witch to carry out her hocus pocus to bring back Elizabeth Bathory?"

"We just need her to see like we do, and she can figure out what she needs to bring Elizabeth back to life."

"And what if she doesn't?"

"Then we resort to violence." Ivy said, in a slight whisper.

Seth stared at her for a moment, keeping in mind that his girlfriend can be such a beautiful vicious creature. He knew that Elizabeth Bathory played an important role in what the both of them wanted. The golden chalice.

"Why don't we look for her after school?" Seth suggested.

"No. Not so fast. We'll have to pretend to be good friends of hers, at least for two days. Then we will ask her nicely. And if she doesn't want to use that magic of hers, you know what's going to happen."

"Let's just worry about that after the next two days then. Let's go grab some juice."

Seth offered his hand and Ivy took it reluctantly, hopping off the seats.

Esmerée enjoyed school as the time passed. She invited Bethany and Trina to come by her house to finish the script. Bethany was trilled to see if the rumours of the creepy de Montford mansion was true.Esmerée can't wait to see her reaction. Trina on the other hand was also thrilled but felt a chill running down her spine as random images began appearing in her mind. She saw blood, lots of blood and something gold, then, Esmerée's face.

"Who is Esmerée?" Trina wondered.

Trina planned to find out, once she's at the de Montford mansion.

That night, Bethany and Trina arrived at Esmerée's place. Bethany was awed. Trina can't wait to do some sleuthing. She planned to stay back a little later than Bethany.

"Let's get this done!" Bethany said, eagerly writing out the starting with the help of Trina and Esmerée.

Halfway through, they were all already exhausted.

"I'll go get drinks for you guys," Esmerée said.

"Sure," Trina responded.

As soon as Esmerée left for the kitchen, Trina began snooping around.

"Trina! What are you doing?" Bethany gasped, "You shouldn't be doing that."

"Aren't you curious to what she have?" Trina said.

Bethany gave it a thought.

"I am, but it's rude to go through people's things. Especially when it's our first time here!" Bethany argued.

"Oh calm down. She's not here and you saw nothing," Trina rolled her eyes.

Bethany decide to ignore Trina by going through the script.
