Fires burn as Saudi Arabia and Venezuela are swept in ash, their once glorious oils fields and primary assets nothing more then torrents of screaming flame, surrounding these once fountains of fortune are the bodies and ruined hulls of their protectors, tanks and other vehicles turned into nothing more then scrap metal as the guards are barely recognizable.

The only signs of life are the figures of the Iron Order who are in the process of mopping up operations before pulling out entirely. Magnum moves about in his power armor, his sensors looking over every detail as he hovers over the ruins of the oil fields of Venezuela, a grin behind his helm as he takes in the sever damage and with Brazil and Argentina sweeping into the small countries borders to further secure it, the first conquest of the new crusade has been done.

Annabelle's voice calls to him through his comms "All targets destroyed and resistance is purged, we can commence a sweep if you want."

The mystic responds "Negative, focus on strategic objectives, no worries the Middle East will be glassed soon enough and will be purged along with the 3rd and much of the 2nd worlds when we bring the full crusade is put in motion. We'll focus on tactical destruction for now, have all forces on your end pull out as planned."

The mare responds "Yes High-Errant, we are pulling falling back."

Farryn and Vanessa look over the sheer destruction, the two women having helped in taking a good chunk of the enemy forces out.

Farryn looks to her son "We have taken this nation, they threw everything they had at us." wondering what Magnum has in store here "Venezuela has surrendered unconditionally."

"This nation has nothing to really offer, it was deemed disposable from the start afterall. We will dismantle their oppressive government and make examples of them." the mystic states coldly, his hud shows information on all targets destroyed as he opens up his neuro-net.

With Venezuela having been swiftly crushed, the tiny nation being the first to fall as the oil of Saudi Arabia has been torched, with it Magnum has the Brazilian forces move into play to act as garrison forces and as a face for now while automata are moved into place, dropships and other automated vessels are sent in to set up a proper forward position within the conquered nation. A cover having already been put in place where due to civil unrest the nation has been placed under martial law under th guise of Brazil with aid from Argentina. Many nations across the globe can feel the tension rise as documentation having been created by Elvo has been provided to explain the situation... however while the documentation paints one story the world has been changing in ways no one can ignore as since the mystic knights arrival the crysis between Ukraine and Russia has ended.

However for many, they remember the words shared the last time the mystic was there... the warning that had sounded should Magnum arrive and the worse come to pass... surrendering was heavily advised. Given the recent events since the mystics arrival with the full extent unknown... the globe shudders at what possibly lays ahead with many showing support for Magnum, with the alliance the mystic has forged so far keeping their cover a little longer as per his direction.

With the critical oil fields destroyed, various economies quickly feel the pressure as Ireland signs the Iron Pact along with Scotland, Spain and Japan to join the Iron Covenant, meanwhile the seeds of revolution spreads through the United States and now the United Kingdom and Canada to side with Magnum as he creates the needed framework with supplies being provided from his armories. With Operation: Smokescreen a great success Magnum decides to after returning to the Howling Crusader to visit his hometown, but is adorned in make up to cover his mystic markings to blend in, as his plan continues to fall into place, he is unsure when he'll get a chance once more to visit the Constitution State either as a simple visit or adorned in armor crushing it alongside his forces.

Eventually he sees a kangaroo up ahead wearing a long black skirt with a long-sleeved red shirt, long orange hair as her black purse hangs over her left shoulder, her right hand holding a cane used by those that are blind for navigation. The mystic recognizes her instantly "Joan? Joan Perseus?" giving a smile.

The kangaroo faces him with a curious and surprised expression her blind eyes going where his voice came from "Magnum?" she puts on a smile as she heads towards his voice "It's wonderful to see you again."giving a warm giggle.

Magnum shares a hug with her "It has been a long time Joan, but I am all better now." he looks to her "And our reunion at the party with the others the last time I was here was nice."

Joan gives his forehead a gentle nuzzle "Our group of friends has always been tight, when we heard you were back we remembered what was said... we have been showing our support for you doing your duty and to bring a sense of order to the chaos. We know you'll clean up the mess going on in the world." she gently takes one of his hands "Remember where the clubhouse is? Everyone else should be there, they would love to see you."

The pair move through the streets, everyone unaware the mystic is walking among them, traffic has slowed down greatly since Magnum's operation with everyone stocking up on gas from the pumps. Magnum recalls the route from his memory, one he hasn't navigated in years but effortlessly follows given he use to be there all the time during his school years. At first they stick to the main roads but follow a little inland and eventually to a back road, a house comes into view which catches the mystics attention, Joan tells him the clubhouse still remains but the two story house was built to better accommodate Magnum should he visit along with those close to him when it comes to her and the rest of his friends. A symbol is next to the door and on a sigh near the road, depicting a green female symbol with green ferns coming off the sides, where the ferns stem from two razor-blades form the center just above the cross part of the female symbol... the mystic puts on a smile at the sight of the symbol, they reach the door to the house to which Magnum rings the doorbell.

The door soon opens, revealing a female hyena, her eyes a yellow orange, each ear having a purple earring as her long brown hair goes just past her shoulders, her natuaral spots having been dyed the same blue color as Magnum's markings, particularly the blue the goes from his eyes and trails down, wearing a purple shirt, black pants and steel-toed boots, she becomes surprised, but she quickly picks up on her old friends presence and smiles "Magnum... you still have that look in your eyes, beside who else would Joan just wrap an arm around?"

"Oval Feldt." Magnum gives a warm expression of his own "I am happy to see you." with his right arm he hugs her "Is everyone else here?"

Oval nods "Yes, the other Ivy Razors are here along with a few other faces." she gently ruffles his golden blonde hair.

The hyena brings Magnum and Joan inside, the inside is bustling with some activity as everyone looks to the mystic in disguise, given some of the conversation being heard and so everyone smiles at the sight. The first five are the rest of the Ivy Razors, the first being a skunk in punk-inspired attire with her black leather jacket adorned with a lesbian flag over her heart as a pin and a patch on each of her shoulders, black pants with a wallet chained to her right pocket, her small boots being purple, her eyes are brown with short hair dyed in purple, the white edging of the white of her tail also purple as her ears each have two bronze earrings, this is Luna Bass.

The second is a giraffe and the tallest one there, her hair being lavender and short along with the tuff on her tail with her ears dyed pink, her eyes green, her clothing being tanktop with no sleeves and a black skirt, her forearms having pink tiger-striped warmers, knee-high black boots, her left ear and left nostril having a silver piercing while her eyelids have black make-up, her name is Audrey Grand. The third of the Razors is a squirrel, her hair a yellow orange color that is long, her eyes blue and her eyelids are a gentle green from make up, her shirt white and short-sleeved with a pink flower on her shoulders with an actual one in her hair, she's wearing a long dark green skirt, her footwear being short brown boots, this is Tiffany Oak. The last two are a pair of twin foxes, their eyes are azure, hair being red umber and wearing black pants with black high-heels, their eyelids being lavender due to make-up, these two are Sarah and Rein Siren, to tell the two apart Sarah wears a green shirt with the tip of her tail matching it as a beauty mark is under her right eye, as for Rein her shirt is brown along with the tip of her tail plus she has a beauty mark under her left eye.

The next three are Magnum's guy friends who grew up with him, a black wolf by the name of Marcus wearing some metal-genre inspired attire, a hyena who's name is Jace adorned in green army camo and the third a rottweiler who is Tate, his appreance kind of greasy given evidence of doing some mechanic work. The last person is a female mouse who is older then them but not by much, she's wearing a black business suit with black-rimmed glasses, her eyes brown with her hair blonde hair done up in a ponytail, this is Lalaine Blink, she was Magnum's guidance counselor during his middle and high school years and always did her best to help him with his academics.

Magnum smiles warmly at everyone present as he enters "It's wonderful to see everyone again.", he works the controls on his watch to disable the digital make up covering his markings "And that none of you have really changed."

Marcus chuckles as he folds his arms "We may have gotten older and such, but hey we never left your boat."

Luna moves over to the mystic wolf and brings him into a hug, giving a happy sigh she looks to him "We certainly haven't... and we have been showing our support for you and we have been doing our best to get more to your side."

The mystic nods as he looks to everyone again "I am glad." he sighs "I know it was hard for everyone when I disappeared years ago, but I am glad it hasn't soured anything."

After doing a bit of catch up, Magnum sits between Luna and Joan as he informs everyone of the coming storm, that he wants to make sure they are taken to safety before the planet more or less becomes a warzone, that he'll be reforging Terra into the image of his Iron Covenant under the guidance of his knight order. After Magnum gives a short summery of his plan and what he has in mind, everyone become intrigued by his words, to be fair they did assume he had arrived to do so in someway especially after the sudden stopping of the war when it comes to Ukraine and Russia... but to hear from their old friend that Terra will be brought into his compliance is nothing short of extraordinary, especially when he decides to bring up some of the nations that have already signed his Iron Pact.

Magnum looks to everyone "After I bring this world to heel and reforge it, I have the means to properly fix the damage from infrastructure to terraforming along with properly becoming the Iron Covenant that I have in mind."

Everyone glances to each other, they can tell Magnum has a full plan in place and has been in motion, the mystic was always good at planning when it came to tactics as Magnum's mind is his best asset, however they also see the hint of malice behind his gaze alongside both his plan of liberation and fixing the worlds problems.

Tiffany smiles "To know you are crusading and with what we saw last time, if anyone can fix this world it is you and we'll help you when and where we can." Luna nods as she gives her own supportive input "I agree, your perspective and the way you analyze everything will certainly aide in how you play your cards."

Joan sighs as she speaks concerningly a little while she holds one of Magnum's hands "Just please, do not let your anger and hatred guide you all the way."

Oval thinks on their combined words, she begins to think of a time before Magnum discovered his powers, it wasn't all bad... but when it was...

...........................................

The hyena's mind wonders to an incident that happened, one that'll always be on her mind... she remembers during Magnum's freshmen year that she and the rest of the Ivy Razors were enjoying their time with Magnum as they were walking around town.

Their blue marked wolf usually walked with Oval and Luna holding his hands or having and arm wrapped around his while the other four ladies walked around them with Audrey and Tiffany in back while Sarah and Rein walked in front. From the start, Oval always did her best to make sure Magnum felt warmth and love as she, their combined friends and their combined parents, to help break up quite a bit of the negativity surrounding him as he actually fit in effortlessly with the Ivy Razors.

The event that really shook them up was when Magnum's main bully growing up, a black bear by the name of Ryan Dumen...

Magnum is alone in his high schools locker room, a smile on his face as he gets ready to play some dodgeball, one of his favorite activities in gym class, a few loud footsteps come out of nowhere and suddenly he gets smashed into the lockers, he looks to see who it is, his helpless expression showing as he see it's Ryan with a huge grin on his face, his piercing green eyes on Magnum as his greasy brown hair shines a bit.

Ryan gives a growl as he presses the wolf into the lockers"Not often you don't have your protection squad with you runt!" he pulls back and slams the blue marked wolf into the lockers "Which means freak, I can break you down!"

Magnum cries out in pain "Ryan! Just stop already! Why do you pick on me so much?!" teras leaving his eyes, his blue eyes full of nothing but fear.

The bear growls "You aren't natural at all Magnum, your blue markings should be tats or paint... not something you are born with! Now, I get to help set the record straight."

The bear grabs one of Magnum's arms at the elbow, intent on breaking it as he once again slams the wolf in the lockers, Magnum screams as loud as he can, screaming for help. Oval comes running from the girls locker room, the hyena growls and jumps, her jaws locking onto Ryan's right forearm and clamping down hard. The bear painfully roars as the other Ivy Razors come in, but before they can join in Ryan tries to shake Oval off, in the process he loses his grip on Magnum as he ends up throwing Magnum towards them. Tiffany brings him into a protective hug while Audrey and Luna get ready to help Oval and the foxes Sarah and Rein stay close to the squirrel and wolf.

Before the skunk and giraffe can jump in, Ryan manages to get Oval off him, Oval lands on her feet, growling as her tail aggressively shudders, the bear gripping his arm as he sees Oval did quite some damage to him, her teeth having gone to the bone practically, he growls as he looks to them, Luna and Audrey joining Oval, more then ready to protect Magnum at all costs against this brute. The hyena lowars herself as she get ready to pounce at a moments notice, Luna readies her chained wallet as she takes the chain off her pants and wallet, Audrey braces herself, ready to back up the skunk and hyena with follow up strikes as she tenses her knuckles.

Oval snarls "You will stay away from him Ryan! Take a step towards him and we will tear you apart!"

Ryan gives a growling scoff, his gaze goes to Magnum "They can't protect you forever Magnum, sooner or later I'll catch you." on that he slowly moves around the group, the ladies glaring at him as he keeps his own eyes on the blue marked wolf who has terrified written all over him as he shudders.

Ryan leaves the locker room and a few moments later Magnum just breaks down, Oval cleans her muzzle and teeth off, she joins in embracing the wolf, Luna keeps an eye on the door with Audrey looking to the backdoor of the locker room while Sarah and Rein run to get the attention of Mrs. Blink.

Oval and Tiffany share the same concerned expression as they keep holding Magnum in their joined embrace, the hyena lets a few tears go, gently kissing the top of Magnum's head before giving him a nuzzle.

The hyena sadly sighs "It's alright Magnum, we are right here brother."with Luna, Audrey and Tiffany giving sad and sympathetic looks, Luna gently speaks "And we will do our best to protect you... no matter what."

......................................

Oval's mind goes back to the present as the group continues to talk, she looks to the mystic as she begins to wonder exactly how he'll handle the globe given his past experiences... though she and everyone else can take a good guess.

Magnum looks to everyone "I can have everyone here aboard my dreadnought pretty quickly along with your families."

Mrs. Blink glances around as she thinks "I do agree." she smiles at the mystic "You never forget who your friends are."

Luna nods "But what about Ryan?" earning Magnum's attention "His group has expanded and after you disappeared he decided to as well, it wasn't until the last time you were here he revealed himself given he was suspect in your disappearance."

The mystic raises a brow "I can just sweep him under the rug when I am ready to commence the crusade. What is he up to?"

"He went west word and his gang has grown greatly, they call themselves the Metal Grizzlies and they have been making a lot of gains." the skunk explains.

Magnum nods "I have heard of the, they are closing in with the Hell's Greaser's... it hasn't come to blows yet, but Ryan is involved it is only a matter of time." he softly sighs "I have met the Hell's Greaser's just from coincidence, they are a good bunch." he puts on a serious expression "And to be honest, Ryan and his group aren't the only thing in play... something else is active. I was ambushed by some kind of shadow construct, it's characteristics were similar to vampires based on what we could see."

Everyone else becomes stunned at hearing this, sure they are getting use to the whole mystic and demon stuff from last time, but to hear they more supernatural stuff is becoming a reality is painting quite a picture. Magnum also decides to tell them he may be a target and he is unsure if this new force will try to use them to get to him or something else along those lines. With this newfound information, the group gets their things packed up and with stealth dropships they are brought onboard the Howling Crusader, earning smiles to see Farryn around once more.

Magnum does inform his mom of Ryan and how his gang are the ones effecting Sadie and the other Hell's Greaser's, the wolfess puts on a more tense expression hearing all of this.

Farryn lightly growls as she folds her arms "That punk... always making trouble!" her tail giving aggravated movements, her eyes narrow into an icey glare "But now that we are knights, we really make him feel some pain."

The mystic puts on a soft smirk "Yeah, we can." he moves around as he brings up a holographic display "But my main concern is this shade, if we are dealing with something else it'll have to take top priority." his blue eyes going towards the construct he had fought a little while ago.

Elvo's projection appears next to him "Speaking of which, after getting a better feel for the data, I was able to greatly narrow down the origin point in Europe." the coyote brings up another display, highlighting the nation of Romania which earns everyones attention.

Magnum eyes the region, his mind filling in the blanks and assumptions, finding amusement "So, looks like the legends are true. If that is the case, we could be facing off against Dracula himself." he looks to Elvo "Maintain the overwatch we have in place." she looks to the holographic displays as he gives a sigh "We may have to reveal the nations that have sided with us pre-maturely, especially of this takes a turn to where we can't contain it."

......................................

Meanwhile on the planet below, Sadie, Kyra and Amara are walking along the street, Sadie's mind going to last night when she saw the creature, reflecting on a few things, especially with what happened to her a time ago. Behind them a black hearse stays a good distance away from them, the windows fairly blacked out, Kyra catches a reflection of the car and whispers that they should duck into the next alley, the three Hell's Greaser's make their move and get into cover behind a dumpster. The hearse stops in front of the alley, it hangs there for a few moments and then moves on, earning suspicious looks for the trio as they stick to hiding.

Sadie looks to Kyra and Amara "Think it's from the Metal Grizzlies?" her lupine tail gently brushing in the air.

Amara shaes her head "It isn't marked... and that group always marks their stuff." her green eyes looking to where the hearse was, she looks to the wolf and raccoon "We need to sneak around and get to the compound."

Kyra thinks for a few moments "That is quite a trek, we can call them and let them know about this mystery car while we make our way around."

Sadie looks up and sees something coming down, it is easy to miss if you aremn't paying attention but she can see a faint outline of Magnum's dropship, she looks to Amara "Quick, hand me your make up mirror."

Amara doesn't understand but she hands Sadie her mirror, the wolf opens it up and begins to signal the dropship as best she can, the sun reflecting off it. Magnum who is inside the dropship with his mother and Vanessa also with him, the dropship picks up the mirror and alerts the ship with it. Through a neural link Magnum sees what is happening, he has the dropship touchdown somewhere in cover, the three knights disembark, as soon as they do Magnum feels a presence and tenses up but he continues leading Farryn and Vanessa, their casual attire and Magnum's make up helping him blend in.

The trio of knights meet up with Sadie, Kyra and Amara, they sink into cover as well given Sadie gives them a signal to hunker down, the wolfess tells Magnum about the hearse and at the same time the mystic tells Sadie that he knows who leads the rival club. The group of six moves around the town, doing their best to avoid the mysterious car, Magnum tenses as he feels that presence again, Magnum looks left as they cross the road and that hearse is facing them, he stops which catches everyone's attention and they too see the car. Magnum takes a step towards the car, the presence he is feeling coming from it, the mystics eyes giving a blue glow as his gaze turns into a glare.

Magnum uses his implants to scan the car, nothing is unusual from what he can tell on that front, he voices his words after a moment "Reveal yourself!"

The driver door opens, another wolf emerges, he smiles at the mystic "I was wondering when we would meet." regally and walks towards the elemental knight "I am Alucard."

The mystic keeps his resolve as he keeps himself between the newcomer and the others "Alucard? As in the son of Dracula?"

Alucard nods as his smile becomes a bit more defined "You do know your history mystic... then again because vampires are part of popular culture I suppose it isn't so far fetched on such knowledge to be public."

The mystic decides to deactivate the cover up from his make up "And I get the feeling you are here for more then just me?" sending a neural command to the dropship hidden away.

Sadie feels a chill run down her spine, she can feel something near... a pair of red eyes slowly materialize behind her, a form slowly coming into being.

The vampire wolf takes a breath "Running into you was mere chance, no I am here doing some inspections."

"Inspections?" the mystic calmly echos, he tenses as he feels a presence creeping in, the dropship coming to their location with it's onboard weapons ready to launch it's surprise attack.

Sadie looks behind her as see the robed creature from last night reaching for her, the wolfess screams, Magnum glares and quickly moves, the dropship shedding it's camoflouge while it drops Galatine, Magnum uses his air powers to aquire the mystic sword, he draws it and after a jump lands between Sadie and the robed being, Galatine glowing brightly as Magnum growls at the new threat.

Tears leave Sadie's eyes as she sees Magnum protecting her, Kyra and Mara draw their sidearms and stay close to Sadie while Farryn and Vanessa stare down Alucard.

Alucard looks to the robed figure "Excellent timing Orlok, though as you can see we have ran in quite a snag." pacing back and forth a bit, keeping his eyes on the group.

Orlok's eyes glow brighter by a slight margin "Lord Alucard, this one does wield the ancient mystic sword... a fine trophy if you wish to claim it my lord."

Magnum keeps his glare "Not going to happen you crypt dwellers!", he realizes something big, realizing Alucard is out during the day, he glances to the vampire "Wait, if you are a vampire... how are you out during the day?"

The vampire laughs, his tone full of amusement "We found a way to counter that vulnerability long ago, but we didn't implement it until after the last time you were here." he stops and faces the group "Also, I want to extend a hand to you Magnum."

The mystic counters "Extend a hand? You mean you want an alliance?!"

Alucard nods "If it is possible. You see we want to claim this world as our own once more... and your activities put that in jeopardy." his tone becoming diplomatic and serious "We can divide the world in two and make it so we can co-exist."

Those with Magnum look to the mystic as he gives an unblinking look to the vampire, his blue eyes scanning for any hint of deception about the offer.... Magnum slowly forms a grin, his expression amused.

"You really think I would let you roam around in the shadows? I have dealt with vampires among the stars here and there, you and your covens create deals and slowly exploit them, some knight orders actually no longer exist due to such infractions and one actually became part of a coven... which I exterminated personally."

Sadie and the two other Hell's Greaser's watch the exchange, all three of them hearing the words in play, hearing the vampires offer for sharing a divided world with Magnum shooting it down... though they do pick up something in the mystics word... something they can't exactly place alongside how amused he sounds. Alucard's confident expression fades at Magnum's stance, now knowing full well they will have to face Magnum along with all others that will oppose the vampires.

Orlok growls as the purple energy around him intensifies "You dare defy Lord Alucard's offer?!" earning Magnum's attention as the mystic aims the tip of his sword at the apperation.

Alucard raises his hand to silence Orlok "Enough Orlok, we aren't here for a fight." is a reluctant hiss from the green robed being, Alucard lowers his hand as he earns Magnum's focus once more "Very well Magnum, hopefully I can convince you before it is too late."

On that Alucard and Orlok slowly fade away, the hearse also fading into nothing, Magnum puts his sword away as the dropship reactivates it's cloak. The group resumes in heading towards the compound with Magnum and Sadie taking point, the raccoon and fox putting their pistols away.

Magnum looks to Sadie as she clears her tears and gets a hold of herself, his blue eyes going to hers...

Sadie glances to him "Thank you, I didn't know how this was going to go down." she sighs and looks ahead "Rival group lead by an old school bully of yours, vampires coming out of the darkness..." she looks back to the mystic "Plus with whatever you are up to." she tilts her head "Are you behind everything that has happened since your arrival? The affair with Ukraine and Russia coming to an end and everything else that has happened so far that has made the news?" her gaze inquisitive as she decides to press the mystic a little.

Farryn and Vanessa glance to each other as Kyra and Amara put on curious expressions as they have been wondering the same thing, Magnum's expression is a little surprised at first but he gives a nod to confirm that he and his order have been up to various operations.

The mystic sounds informatively "Yes, we have been carrying out various missions. I am working to reforge this world."

"Reforge? You mean conquer?" the punk-styled wolfess folding her arms and raising a brow.

Magnum gives a conforming nod "You are correct. To be blunt Terra has been marked for crusade by the core of the knight orders, many orders actually seek to purge this planet, since I am from here I know where to strike... where to rebuild and turn this place into the start of my own faction... the Iron Covenant." he looks to the red wolfess, raccoon and fox as he explains.

The Hell's Greaser's take in the surge of information, to hear Magnum's plan summarized, with the mystic even saying his full forces for the invasion are almost finished.

Amara takes a breath "Do we have a place in this new world?"

Magnum smiles "You do, no worries on that front given the Hell's Greaser's are a pretty positive group overall." he looks ahead "But these vampires may force me to accelerate my plan and reveal my hand a little early, who knows where their invisible grip is? How far and deep it reaches." he looks to Sadie "Plus there is still Ryan and his Metal Grizzlies." giving a sigh at the end.

Sadie nods, she begins to think of what was on her mind last night... would Magnum listen to her or not, she is unsure still given he is a guy... but he was honest and upfront about what his goal right now is. Sadie glances around at nothing in particular, battling one if she should come forward or not with the mystic...

"Are you alright?" Magnum speaks and earning Sadie's attention, she eyes the mystic, his features showing genuine concern for her.

On Magnum's end he takes another look at Sadie's gaze, his blue eyes scanning her golden yellow ones.... seeing a look in them he never thought he would see again...

Sadie sighs as she decides to put it off "Y-Yeah I will be... I just need a moment to get myself back together, that green freak sppoked me pretty good." still feeling unsure about talking to Magnum about such a sensitive subject on her end.

Magnum raises a curious brow... but he decides not press, he gives a nod "Alright, I just wanted to make sure." his blue eyes going forward... Sadie's tears replaying in his mind, he glances to her and sees she is holding her pendant around her neck in a gentle way.

........................

Vivian is in her home, a small quaint house that is well taken care of, she is happily humming as she she goes about preparing some potatoes for her slow-cooker, From a dark corner Dracula slowly emerges, his red eyes glowing for a moment as he smiles softly.

The wolfess feels a chill run down her spine, she turns around and aims her knife at the vampire "What you doing here?!" keeping herself facing him.

The vampire moves around as he approaches her "I wanted o check on you my dear."

"Check on me?! You are a monster! You and your son!"

Dracula gives a chuckle "Please, I have heard worse." his eyes glow red as he gazes at Vivian.

Vivian's eyes gain a red tinge, she tries to fight what the vampire is trying to do as she shakes her head "Ah! No, get out of my head! Get out of... my..." she freezes as her body relaxes, she slowly looks to the vampire, her expression far more docile.

Dracula moves over to her, he takes the knife from her "Good, now with that out of the way, there is something I need you to do."

The wolfess nods, he voice monotone "What is it master?"

A grin slowly forms on Dracula's face.... more then ready to put something in place...

To be continued...
