" Well.. i think I know place but it is a bit of a distance away, But glad you are going to accompany us...who knows what kind of trouble we could come across and these people need our protection " Julia said speaking with concern and in a worrying tone to her voice.
Samia still remained steadfast in the spot from which she could still see Micah and Harry in view, ~ We follow for now, But only from a distance I'm sensing they are already aware of our precence ~ she said in her mind transfering her thoughts to Dinah who had raised the question as to what they were going to do.
Isolde led the way along the magnificent and large entrance hall leading her up the main staircase and through the one of many corridors that it had " I'm going to show you to your chambers first I'm sure it will be to your liking, There you will be able to wash and find suitable clothing to befit you Princess Rose "
Micah glanced over to Harry and smiled. "Yeah. I know. Thanks for cheering me up. And I'm glad that you see the Humans as friendly than the creatures down here..."
_______________________________
Princess Rose. The young woman was already excited from all of this. It seemed that Isolde was being kind to her because she was half-Human, half-Vampire. And the fact that she was to be the heiress of her, which excited Rose more.
"Thank you, my lady. I'm really honored." Rose continued to follow Isolde to her chamber.
Gender: Female Location: May or may not be somewhere else.
"I was serious about the detective thing." Harry shrugged. "And of course - people down here, they're mostly monsters, with all honesty. No offense... Above, people can be monsters too, but someone locks them up - the police. Down here, no one generates order."
Gender: Female Location: May or may not be somewhere else.
"P.I., Wizard. I really should put myself in the yellow pages." Harry said, grinning. "We still far from Isolde's place?" He asked. "Never been there. I don't face vampire queens on a daily basis..."
The dead chill of the cool night air swept throughout the streets of the small village, all vacant save for a handful of soldiers, combing throughout the area in formation, as if to show that they are in control of all. Dust stirred around their feet as they patrolled, dissipating into the air above as a small wave of moonlight passed over their echoed footsteps, reverberating off the stone walls of the buildings as they passed. A solitary motion swept throughout the village rooftops, swift but efficient, as the figure loomed in the darkness, waiting for the perfect moment to strike.
Jesus H. Christ, the things these people wanna do to me after I kill off those... those... things... The thought echoed through the head of Kale Guinness as he duked behind a crate, narrowly escaping the gaze of a solitary patrol as he passed. The soldier rounded the corner and Kale stepped out, wiping the sweat from his brow as he re-gathered his composure. Gotta be more careful. I can take one, but if a group catches me, I may have to use more energy than necessary... And if I'm getting out alive... I can't use much more...
"He, Sie da!"* The voice rang out behind him in a thick German accent as he winced, swearing inwardly at himself as he turned, an entire squadron with their rifles pointed at his head, sharpened bayonets glistening from inches away.
"Caught? Christ, and I thought I was doing so well." He raised his hands slowly, placing them behind his head as the generators lining the town square caught his eye. Not yet... Timing has to be perfect... As the guards stepped forward, he turned casually back toward them, a hand lowering as if in conversation. "Guys, I really have to piss. Would that be a bad thing to bring up right now? I mean... I would hate for it to be a real... SHOCKER!!!"
No sooner had he said it than the generators sparked lightly, shorting out and leaving him with little more energy than a static shock from a shag carpet. "Damnit, I have got to work on checking which generators are dead in a town..." He shrugged, dropping to the ground and sweeping his leg across the shins of several, grabbing a pistol from his belt as the other flew into the air, firing off several rounds with the first before reaching up and catching the other, spinning and firing off a few more shots before coming to a halt with both pistols pointed at the face of the General before him.
"Bang!" He clicked the trigger on each gun, both ringing empty as he smirked, holstering both and walking away. "You got lucky this time, boyo. But chances are, you'll have another squad ready by the time I hit the Black Forest. So, go and collect more men if you insist on more mindless violence, but truth be told, I would think it best if you just let me go. Next time, Lady Luck may not be on your side."
Walking away, he spun both pistols a time or two, reloading both and returning them yet again to their holsters, exiting the town with a nonchalant wave and disappearing into the forest, his mind never dropping the facts that he should have killed the General... and he needed to find a quick means of traversing the path through the Black Forest into the French side of the line...
A lone figure walks though the forest at night. A faint whistling can be heard coming from the figures direction. As the figure slowly comes into view it turns out to be nothing but a normal looking female with green hair. "Wow, this forest is a bit creepy after dark. Wonder what kinda crazy stuff lives here...Hope its nothing that can kill me." She says in a nerves voice. As she walks farther an outline of an opening in the forest can be seen a head of her. "Oh, sweet maybe I've already found it!" She quickly runs toward the opening. Running out into it she quickly finds the edge of a very tall cliff [And when I say "very tall," I'm talking Angel Falls tall]. Being just shy of a few inches from becoming a human pancake at the bottom of the cliff, she quickly jumps back then slowly crawls back to the edge. "Holy shit! That coulda been the death of me!!" Her eyes wide with fear she backs away again. Standing up she looks to the right and then to the left. To the left she spies a rickety old bridge spanning the gap between the land. "Well isn't that covenant?" She walks over to the front of the bridge and as she is about to set her foot on it a shadow appears from under the bridge knocking her back. " The hell!?!" When she regains her footing she looks up to see a troll standing in front of the bridges entrance. "How the hell did you-" She is quickly cut off by the troll, "None shall pass!!" He yelled. She looks confounded as to how the troll came from under the bridge but shakes it off, "Aren't you a bit of a...a...what's the word?" "Cliche?" The troll ask. "Yeah, that's it!"

Isolde continued to walk with Rose down the long hallway until they both came to a halt and there it was, Rose's chambers she opened the grand doors to it and smiled at her has she led her inside, It was one of the largest rooms in the palace, It had a huge bed fit for a princess with drapes hanging from it from all four corner sides and at the edge of the bed it had small bed couch that was filled with comfy pillows. On the other side of the room stood a huge walk in closet that looked like a mini mall for it had bags, shoes, boots, dresses, jewellery and other stuff that it held inside of it. On the opposite side of the room held two double doors that would open to Rose's very own En-suite luxurious bathroom, " Well, what do you think ? " Isolde asked with keen interest.
Julia sighed to Lara and Olivia " I think we should get going, We not safe out here in the open "
"...Wait...How does a troll know a word like that? Aren't you guys suppose to be stupid?" She went on. "Is there some law that says trolls have to be stupid?" The troll ask. "Well...not that I've seen but I've always heard, it is easier to trick a troll then fight it." She answers. "Ah, sadly my kind is easily tricked. Witch has lead most to believe we are some of the stupidest creatures." The troll sighs. "Ah, well if I hear someone talking about trolls like that I'll be sure to correct them." The girl assures the troll, "So can I go across this bridge now? I really need to get to the Underworld." "Ah, yes thank you kind stranger and sorry but you can go across if you have a pass." The troll answers holding out one of his hands. "Ah, yes. Of course." She checks her pockets finding no pass. "Oh, shit I think I dropped it back in the forest. It's probably some where close cause I was just looking at it a few minutes before I reached this bridge. Would you mind helping me look for it?" She puts on her best smile hoping the troll will fall for her trick. Since she never had a pass to begin with. "Well...I guess I can. But if we don't find it within 30 minutes you'll have to go back." The troll warns. "Ah, of course. Of course. Ok so you go search over there," She points to the right where she came out of the forest, "and I'll go look over here," she points to the trees to the left of the bridge, And we'll meet back here in 30. Cool?" "Yes. That shall work." The troll agrees and sets off to look. As he inters the forest, the girl quickly takes off across the bridge and into the forest on the other side. "Ha, ha. Sucker!" She walks on into the forest and finds what looks like a cellar door in the ground under some fake bushes. She opens the door and walks down what seems like a never ending stair case. "Holy Christ I don't remember the stairs being this long." The stairs finally open into a huge open room with Cerberus centered in the middle. "Who goes there!?!" The voice of Cerberus rings in her head as he turns toward her growling. "Just a lowly lycan wanting to get back home." She answers. "You are the one called Asha, no?" She hears in her head. "Yeah, wow how did you kno-" She's cut off by Cerberus' "Where is your pass?"
((Ah, sorry these are so long. T-T Oh, and if you wanna change what the entrance to the Underworld looks like or anything else go ahead. I just typed off the top of my head. >.> ) )

Dinah turned her head to the one side ~ your the boss...~ Dinas spoke through her mind to Samia.
Olivia nodded in agreement " Lets go then, I hang back behind you guys to make sure we not being tracked " she said and gave a quick glance behind her.
Kale ran through the woods swiftly, the sounds of soldiers and search dogs growing nearer with every second. Damnit... I never dreamed they would regroup this quickly. Gotta keep running. no sooner had the thought crossed his mind than he realized he was unable to discern anything in front of him. The world had quite literally become pitch black. Of course... Right when I need to see most... I wonder where I can go to fi-- SHIT!! He felt himself falling forward, as though stumbling down a flight of stairs. Cursing with each passing moment, he found himself stopped at the feet of a green haired girl. Shaking off the pain he smirked up at her, his face full of mischief.
"Well hey there, little lady. What brings you here?" No sooner had he said it than a wave of hot breath crossed the back of his neck. "Please tell me that was a warm draft..."
"Well I could...But it'd be a lie." She said with a straight face. "Also you may not wanna turn around." Her ear twitches slightly and she looks up the stairs, as the soldiers following the man start to come down to the Underworld, "Um, by any chance did you shut the door behind you? If not there's gonna be some unwanted guest and that 'Warm Draft' isn't gonna be very happy with you." She said looking back at the man. "But you were the one who left it open were you not?" Cerberus' voice rings loudly in her ear again and she thinks back. "...Uh...Shit!" She realizes her mistake, "So if the both of you do not take care of this, lets just say there are worse things then death." The giant three headed dog's warning was not to be taken lightly. "Yes sir!" She salutes Cerberus and takes off up the stairs.

Micah smiled at Harry. He must be so proud being a detective. Micah then replied, "We'll be there in about... a good 20 minutes. That is if we don't get caught."
Walking inside and looking around, Rose was amazed. She smiled brightly. "This... this room is amazing! I love it. I feel... like a real princess..."
She looked over at Isolde and smiled. She then ran over and hugged her. "Thank you so much!"
Suddnely, she came to her senses, and let Isolde go. Bowing before her, she felt embarrased. "My lady. I didn't mean to... I... I'm sorry, I..." Rose gulped.
Alacurd stood on top of the castle walls looking out in the forest below. Something didn't feel right to him. He rubbed his chin for a moment then turned around to enter the palace but stopped and looked up into the sky. The moon was gone tonight. No sign of it in the sky at all. This made no difference to Alacurd but he always enjoyed the moonless nights. That was when it was darkest and he loved the darkness.
Alacurd entered the castle and made his way down to a courtyard and took a seat next to a large fountain. He gazed at the water and saw...well no reflection. The humans are approaching. Alacurd thought to himself silently. He could feel it in his very blood.
Shrugging nonchalantly and standing, Kale wandered toward the staircase, stopping only momentarily to wave a single hand back at the dog and then making his way upstairs. "No worries, pooch. We got this covered. Or I do, at least. Not sure about girly up there." He continued his way up the stairs, drawing both guns and spinning them one after the other on his way up. "C'mon, boys! You want me? Come and get me!!" He ran up the stairs, finding a few of the bodies already demolished as he finally neared the top.
Isolde smiled at Rose " It is quite all right, You needn't feel shy with me or certainly not bow before me out of embarrassment and don't feel that you are going to mess up..... I just want you to be happy and I want to bring out the confidence that you have within you Princess Rose " she held out her arms for Rose to come forward once more and hug her.
Gender: Female Location: May or may not be somewhere else.
"Hell - I wish I wasn't bad at veils." Harry said, frowning. It would have been easier if they crept inside the castle quietly camouflaged by magic, but HArry wasn't good at the subtle stuff. "We could always run in there, guns a-blazin, and scream Rose's name at the top of our lungs and announce that we wage war on Isolde for taking your daughter." It lacked finesse, but it was a plan - although Harry was only kidding. He'd let Micah lead this gig. "Uh, seriously though - what's our plan?"
Isolde held Rose gently has a mother would hug her daughter when she was reaching out for tender care " I'm glad you feel that way...Because I feel that we are forming a special bond...like a mother and daughter bond " she pulled her gently off her and gazed into Rose's innocent child like face and was going to say something but she thought better off it, It was far too soon, But she felt that time was moving faster and her enemies were drawing closer to take away the one thing beside her husband she came to love...She wasn't going to let that happen, What do they have to offer her that she can't give however she brushed these thoughts to the back of her mind and smiled once more " Well I shall leave you for a moment so that you can freshen up if you require anything then just ring this bell " she pointed towards it which was on a elegant dressing table " and one of our servants will come " she said and walked to the door and glanced back " I'm glad your here Princess Rose " and with that she left the chambers.
Asha had already started tearing into the squad of men. "Hey, these are just humans. It shouldn't be to much of a problem." As soon as she finishes that sentence one of the men shoots her in the right shoulder. "AH!!! F%*# DUDE!!! She grabs her shoulder as the man shoots her in the right leg bringing her down to a knee. "Well shit." The man walks up to her and puts the gun to her forehead. "Shouldn't be much of problem, huh?" The man repeats what she said sarcastically as a smug smirk goes across his face. "Yeah, about that..."She trails off a evil grin runs across her face and in the blink of an eye her arm impales the guy through the chest. "I was right." She pulls her arm out of the guy and jumps back behind Kale. "You can have the rest."
