| You could say “It was a dark and stormy night…” But I do fear that not only would that sound a bit cliché, but that phrase alone wouldn’t do this place justice. The moon hung eerily overhead, shrouded by night-black clouds. But, in comparison to the dark of this night, the clouds were just a hazy gray. Even vampires couldn’t see more that three feet in front of them at any given time. The rain was coming down so hard it would have stung as it hit your body and left you wondering if it left a bruise. Fortunately, you were smart enough to travel by carriage. At least you had some form of a shield in the thick forest around you… if snakes didn’t bother you to much. Once you cleared Snakeville, you look up, right in front of the moon, was a large, Gothic castle. Towers, flying buttresses, and gargoyles were everywhere. It was one of those places you see in a movie where kids would sneak in on a dare, end up seeing a monster and run out, screaming for their lives. The big, stone door was adorned with Gothic etchings and carvings. You lift the door knocker, which was in the shape of a gargoyle with long, pointed fangs, and bang once, twice, three times. The door swings open eerily and an older man in a suit greets you, "Good evening. Thank you for attending our Vampire Ball." The surroundings of this Gothic castle, known as Castle Ward by most, were dark. And yet, strangely warm and homey. There was no light, save the chandelier that hung from the ceiling. And that was lit by candles, not electricity. The wood furnishings were deep mahogany and all the fabrics were a deep crimson red velvet. Vampires intermingled with each other pleasantly. Any past feuds were forgotten in this dark, vampiric atmosphere. | |

| Dianne, the hostess of the party was flirting shamelessly with a young male, when she got bored of him and left to get herself a wine glass of blood. | |

| Damian entered the large room and looked around. His hair was still wet from the rain that was falling outside. He didn't see much in the room, just some furnature, a chandelier, a few other vampires, and one vampire skipping off somewhere. He shrugged and took a seat on a nearby couch then looked around for someone or something interesting. |

| Dianne noticed Damian enter the room and came up behind him with an extra wine glass filled with blood, "Having fun, Damian?" She asked, a playful smile curling around her lips as she handed him a glass. | |

| Damian smiled and took the glass. "Well, I haven't as of yet, but I'm sure that will change now that I've been graced with your presence, Ms. Ward." |

| "You flatter me." Dianne smiled and walked around the couch to sit down next to him, her movements lithe and graceful. "There are plenty of young girl that I am sure would be tickled pink to have you even look at them." | |

| Damian sipped at the glass then spoke. "Why thank you." He said smiling. "But at the moment I'm speaking with you, so those other young girls will have to wait." |

| "You say that as if I am young myself." Dianne smiled, "And you know very well that I am not." Her eyes looked up at the door as it creaked open and the butler helped a small young girl shrouded by a black cloak inside. | |

| He smiled and watched as a butler, followed by a cloaked girl entered the room. "Well, Miss Ward, that depends on your definition of 'young.' Even with my age I'm considdered ancient by some, and infintile by others." |

| "I'm a good 700 years old, darling." She smiled, "Considered an adult even by vampire standards." | |

| He nodded smiling. "And thats the sole reason I refer to you as 'Miss Ward.' I'm just a little over one hundred so I'm quite young by most standards." |

| "Oh, and here I thought you had some respect for your elders in you." She pouted, then looked back over at the girl as she removed her cloak. She had long, blonde hair that cascaded down to the small of her back and deeep, dark green eyes that seemed to soak in all the light in the room. She was pale skinned, like every other vampire in the room. She was small, only about 5 feet in height and easily dissapeared into the crowd, but flashes of her white dress kept appearing in the crowd, giving away her position, "That's Isabella Strauss. She's the only one here younger than you." Dianne smiled, "I should know. I turned her." | |

| "She was sixteen when I changed her." Dianne smiled and nodded, "Sweetest girl you ever could meet. Tragedy about her family, though." Dianne sighed, "She's going to be 95 in a few months." | |

| Damian nodded. "You said she was Isabella Strauss, correct? Would that be the same Strauss family with the assassin included in it's heritage? I remember hearing that they never found the body of that man's daughter. Her name was Isabella, too, I think." |

| Dianne laughed, "That's her. He had shot her in right in the hollow of her neck. I found her just in time." | |

| Damian smiled. "And so the mystery is solved. It caught my attention back then, so I was going to look into it eventually. But at the time I had more pressing matters to deal with." |

| "So, what were you doing with them, then?" Dianne asked, raising one eyebrow. Bella noticed Dianne and started trying to force through the crowd to get to her. Which was difficult for one of her size. | |
