Vladimir glared through his hypnotic dark eyes of his and merely smirked through he corner side of his mouth his three brides were also scowling at her from behind him " your friends are of value to me at this precise moment in time otherwise they would be dead already the plan no doubt your friends will be arriving for your attempted rescue of you..they will fail and you will die unless they agree to my demands..understood, you have no Idea who I am or what I am capable and the Volturi themselves won't know what hit them " he then vanished with his brides in a puff of thick shimmering clouded mist before angel's eyes leaving her in her misery of what was going to happen to her.
Angel ran towards him with angry fists, but the creep was already gone in clouded mist, along with his three women. Brides, she guessed.
"They'll kick your rear! You just wait!!" Angel then began to cry. "Just you wait..." The young girl knelt down on the ground, and bowed her head, crying.
She didn't know who he was or what was going on. All she knew was that courage had to be on her side...
" hey, Little darling " said a voice coming from the next cell. Lucian, a druid boy was peering in through a gap through the cell bars " Don't worry. I'm going to get us both out of here, My name is Lucian " he spoke so calm and with a brave manner and such courage.
The soft patter of hoof upon cobblestone was all that was heard in the dreary night air. Hadrianus Varinius had travelled long and far, moving upon the whims of rumour and small talk to this very location, This very location.... He had Blessed himself for only the power of the Almighty, In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti, could protect him in these foul lands of evil. His trusted blade hung from his side, and his spirited cross bow slung across his back, his Holy bolts crossed across his shirt forming an 'x'. His long billowing black cloak flowing off into the darkness, his face masked underneath his brimmed hat. Crosses, Seals of Purity, and various other insignias hung from his neck, wrists, and all other manner of places. His horse, black as night, named Feail barely making any form of sound as it trotted along at a brisk pace.
The castle loomed ahead, Hadriananus crossing himself as he stared at it's presence. "Tonight, let my sword taste the flesh of the Heretic." As he neared the castle, he hopped from his horse, patting it and whispering orders into its ear, grabbing from his pack a very tight grappling hook, he was able to scale the outlying castle wall. Years of success at his trade taught him every element of stealth, and tonight he'd need them more than ever. The battlements were deserted, seemingly so as only the foul Dead lurked in such an area as this, a vial of Holy Water gleamed from the shining of the full moon.
He traversed the battlement, coming to a point where it lowered and hopped down, sneaking through the lower ramparts. A small band of gypsies were encamped outside, as was custom with many of these Vampirical Lords, bands of crazed followers often times placed themselves at the mercy, getting food and wealth at the cost of sacrifice and other such diabolical torments. He did not pity them, heretics deserved no such thing.
One of them, a young male, stood watch just outside the ring of fires, he was whistling a low tune under his breath, an old bolt-action rifle slung in his hands. Like the Black Plague itself Hadrianus snuck upon him, grasping the foul heretic with both arms, one around the throat the other around his mouth to prevent him screaming out. He dragged the boy into the shadows, keeping one finger on the boys lips as he spoke the next sentence,
"Do not scream out, you must answer these questions or you will never see your loved ones for a long time, do you understand?" The boy nodded and he removed his finger,
"Now, this castle, is there a way in?" The boy seemed uncertain and began thinking, then suddenly he nodded vigorously, pointing towards one of the walls.
"Speak boy, but speak quietly."
"There is a way," The boy replied in a thick accent, "But it is dangerous, for I have only seen the Master ever do it." He pointed again at one of the bastions, a lone window was shown.
Curiously, Hadrianus asked, "He has climbed this wall, at such a steep angle?"
The boy nodded once more and so did the Hunter, he patted the boys back before drawing a sharp blade and piercing the gypsy's spinal column,
"Let the Holy Father, In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti relinquish you of your Ways."
The boy gave a sharp gasp, and Hadrianus slowly lowered him to the ground, making a mental note to not lie to the boy, after his business with this Vampire was complete, he'd be sure to kill off the rest of the gypsies.
Such heretics could be allowed no pardon, and with that stole off into the night to examine the bastion's wall.

Angel opened her tearful, blue eyes, and looked around. She then got up and saw young man in another cell. Smiling, Angel looked through the gap of the cell bars. He sounded brave and daring.
"Hi, Lucian. My name's Angel. Angel Jones. Um... nice to meet ya."
Remembering what he said about getting out, she asked, "Hey, um... h-how are we gonna get outta here?"
Hadrianus ran his hand along the smooth stone of the bastion, feeling it and getting a sense of what he was about to attempt. There seemed to be no simple solution to climbing, obviously the foul Mutant had some sort of ability that allowed him to crawl like some sort of freakish spider along these smooth edges.
Obviously the foul gypsy had given him the wrong information on the premisis that he would of let him live, anger coursed through the Witch Hunters veins and angrily he slammed his hand into the wall. His hand grasped a chunk of stone and Hadrianus looked up to see that very small, faint, yet sturdy footholds were embedded slyly into the wall, blending in with the natural smoothness unless one looked directly at it. Smiling, he gripped the stones and began his ascent into the main castle, not even bothering to look down.
The window was dark, all the better for what he had planned for this vile Vampire. He blessed himself before crawling into the window and into the dark room, it was pitch, nothing can be seen except for the faint glowing of a torch at the end of the room. Moving swiftly and silently, Hadrianus crept down the passageway and followed a staircase leading downwards, it opened up into a main foyer of sorts, deserted and giving an eerie silence that chilled even the bones of this mighty and blessed Hunter of Evil.
Various passageways branched off, leading to different sectors of the castle, a castle that seemed to be empty. Alert, his senses tingling, Hadrianus crept silently down a randomly selected passageway, by God, In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti, he would seek out these vile creatures of Darkness and eliminate them from the world if he had to do so room by room.
Running his gloved fingers along the wall, he watched the passages ahead, it seemed a never ending maze of them, room by room he passed, and he moved for what seemed like hours until finally he came upon a strange door recently opened. Gripping the hilt of his daemon killing blade, he peered inside, it led to a steep descent that was barely lit by faint torches, perhaps a dungeon of sorts.
He crept down the staircase, silently, completely unheard even his faint breaths, the staircase eventually opened up into a long hallway of cells, and he heard two voices speaking in the darkness. Wondering who could be trapped prisoner in such an evil place, he walked slowly down the hall, making each boot clank against the ground, slowly and deliberatley, he would be ready for whatever was ahead.

Surely it was a good way to die, in the place of someone else, someone I loved. Noble, even. That ought to count for something.
"That's my mum and er my step dad he's nice I guess if you like that sort of thing they were leaving to go on a trip and I was going to a place I haven't been for a long time, A place called Forks, Washington to go live with my dad I used to visit quite a lot when I was kid and now I was going to live there" Bella got in the car and was driven to the airport and there the plane took her to her new home for how long she did not know her dad met her at the airport he had insisted in picking her up and drive her to his place it was raining and cloudy here in Forks a different to what she was use to in sunny Phoenix ~ That's my dad charlie he is the chief of the police ~ she thought to herself as though we was hearing her thoughts and making it seen as though she was introducing him to us. Once they came to the house charlie showed her to her room, It was still the same since she last visited nothing seem to have been moved almost has though he had been waiting for Bella to come for a while and didn't want to move anything he told her if there was anything she needed then all she had to do was ask and then he left her to unpack or whatever. The sound of a truck pulled up outside of the house an old friend of Charlie's and a rather younger, Yet familiar boy she vaguely, Yet did remember who he was his name was Jacob Black she remembered now so she thought it would be rude if she didn't go outside and introduce herself to them so she headed down the stairs and out of the door and waited on the steps with her hands in her pockets looking awkward and almost shy like .
Charlie and Billy Black were having a friendly conversation, Billy had a pleasant face Bella thought although he was wheel chaired bound it didn't stop him from having a youthful out look on life and that showed in his face. Billy looked up with his hat on his head and smiled from his wheelchair " Long time no see Bella, ah you probably don't remember me " Billy said with a grin to which Bella walked towards him and politely shook his offered hand out to her " actually I sort of do remember you " Bella said with a polite smile, " Charlie here hasn't stopped talking about you since he heard you were coming to stay here " Billy said with a playful chuckle " Charlie grimaced in embarrassment but bella was pleased sort off that her dad was happy with her being here, it was quite an awkward arrangement but she was glad to be here in Forks once again she glanced shyly at Jacob who was grinning at her.
" What, " Bella said in surprise. Both Billy and Charlie were grinning " It's true Bella your dad brought it from me he always was a soft touch " Billy laughed. " Oh my god are you serious ?, " she looked excited it was her first truck it wasn't nothing fancy or anything but it just seemed to have something special about it " You see I told you she'd love it...I know what I'm talking about I'm down with the kids " Billy called out. Bella opened the door and sat in the driver seat and felt the wheel and grasped it " This is so cool " she said to Jacob has he too got in and started showing her the different stuff and how to use the clutch and gears and stuff inside the car.
Forks High School
Bella pulled up in the car park of the school in her new truck it was an old truck so obviously it wasn't a smooth ride has some of the other cool kids had she opened the door and walked towards the school entrance she clutched her bag and then headed inside when a young boy with a grim approached her " hey your the new girl er Isabella Swan " Bella glanced in surprise that he already knew her name but she hated the isabella part she preferred " actually It's Bella just call me Bella " Bella corrected him politely " oh that's cool, I'm Eric Yorkie, I know the low down on everyone also run the school newspaper and your the new hot stuff " he went to take her picture but Bella put her hands up to stop him she didn't want to draw attention to herself it was not in her jurisdiction to be noticed and popular but it seemed that was not her option.
Eric and Angela who had popped up and introduced herself had managed to persuade Eric to let the story go and not take her picture they headed for the canteen and sat down on one of the larger tables in the middle of the canteen....Everyone was interested in Bella.
( just waiting for Blue to post Jessica and to do the introduction for the Cullen's etc )
Gender: Female Location: Somewhere on google earth!
A pretty brunnette girl sat down next to Bella and looked perplexed at her popularity has she was usually the one who got the attention " Hi, I'm Jesicca and I see that your the fresh new meat for some around here " She said with reluctance as mike came and introduced himself to Bella she kind of had a thing for him.
Bella faintly smiled awkwardly and then something strange happened, A feeling a breeze of wind made her turn around and gaze out at the window pale figures walked past it and were heading towards the canteen door. They were the most captivating and beautiful looking people she had ever seen in her life " Who are they ? " Bella asked in a interested sort of espression.
Gender: Female Location: Somewhere on google earth!
Jessica followed Bella's gaze and spotted who she seemed to have her interest and said through an amused smirk " Oh that's the Cullens they transfer students and the adoptive kids of Dr Cullen, They tend to stick to themselves and stuff ". Alice and Jasper were the first to walk in and walk across slowly across the canteen she was holding onto Jasper's arm.
Jessica started with the introduction to who was who " The short haired girl, That's Alice....She's really weird and that who she is with his name is Jasper he always looks like he walks around in pain " she retorted has she watched Bella watch them with an intriguing expression and was clearly interested in what she had to say about them." The blond headed girl...That's Rosalie and she is with Emmett...Like with Emmett, It's totally weird " she got a few looks from how she said that.
Reese Hamilton, an 18-year-old girl that attended Forks High School, was reading a book and standing near the doorway. She glanced up at Bella and the others.
She breathed. "Okay. Don't be scared..." Reese walked up to Bella and the others, waving once. "Urm... hey everybody."
Bella was trying to evaluate what Jessica was saying not taking her eyes of these beautiful looking people has they walked past her and headed towards a large table by the window. A voice though broke her thoughts and gaze " Hey she muttered softly
" No. you didn't, pull up a chair and sit down with us I'm just getting introduced to things around here and people " Bella muttered once more, In truth Reese did sort of interrupt but she didn't want to be rude and impolite by saying that to her.
" It's fine, I'm Bella swan, Don't think, What's yours, " she asked biting down on her lower lip allowing her gaze to flick towards the window has a pale figure slowly walked past, Her heart started to beat with intensity, A feeling, she placed her hand across her chest and tried to recompose herself, quickly glancing back at Reese.
