Marionette didn't look up or seem to notice his presence.
She yawned softly with her hand over her mouth as she mixed something in a small antique bowl as she jotted down notes.

Homework.

She continued reading as her pencil moved without her holding it.

At this moment, some of Marionette's blonde hair fell over her eye, her blue eyes glowing brightly as a soft aura was given off.

Vasily watched her for a moment before he shrugged, he figured it was safe to keep walking past her. Not that it mattered of course.

Suddenly a little girl ran and jumped on Vasily, tackling him to the floor.
Normally he'd have caught himself but it was so unexpected that he lost his footing and fell backwards.

"Vasily Vasily!!!" she squealed happily when she finally got to him.

"Did you have to jump on me?" he asked and the little girl apologized cutely before getting off of him. He stood up and dusted himself off before gazing down at the girl and he froze, starring at her.


"U-Um..." Vasily was out of words.

"Pwick me up..." she said stretching her arms up more, eyes wide and a smile on her face.

"Jizabel..."

"Pwick me up..." she repeated.

Vasily stood there for a moment, watching her. She was so adorable that he could not help himself. Bending down he picked her up.

"Why don't we take you back now?"

"Otaii. I jus' wan'ed to swee you Vasily." she said hugging him around the neck.

"I'll come see you more often Jizabel...promise."

"Yay!" she said happily with a grin.

Vasily smiled and kissed her forehead before he carried her down a different hall, away from Marionette.

Marionette twitched as the mixture in her bowl made a small explosion splattering on her face.
What the...
That little girl...
She is messing up my plans!!

Mari's face changed to a bright red.

"Nice emotion potion Ms. Venyl," a guy commented as he walked passed her.

She twitched even more.
"You...Have...Got to be...kidding me!!!"

Everyone froze in the hall.

Her hand went to her mouth as her eyes widened.
I just...screamed...?!

Her voice never reached a volume beyond a whisper.
Never.

Vasily paused when he heard someone's voice rise through the hall. He turned and saw Marionette. That was odd, for her to raise her voice like that. She was a telepath but she seemed to be a very emotional telepath from what he just saw.

Shaking his head he chuckled,

It seems like some people need to learn to gather their emotions together.

Turning back around he walked back down the hall before he arrived at a room. Stepping inside he set the girl down before nodding to the woman sitting by the window and watched as the girl ran to the woman and crawled into her lap.

With a small smile he turned and stepped back out into the hall before walking back down the hall, towards where Marionette was.

(stepping in his room he decides he need a shower although he was just burnt he's starting to heal already. AS he turned the shower on he let out a grimmace as the water hit his skin. Not wanting warm water he shut off the heat completely and embraced the coldness of the water thinking) maybe he's right or maybe i just don't deserve friends but i won't let my pride and honor be crushed ( stepping out the shower he out on a robe and fell asleep on his bed

Vasily walked back down the hall and when he got to that corner he noticed people were walking away and there was no Marionette around.

I wonder what happened...
Could whatever she is doing get the best of her?
I wonder...

With a shake of his head he sighed and walked off down the hall.
it seems that things are changing once more because of me..
maybe it had been a mistake to return to this place.

"You know..."

"The master doesn't like..."

"You when you get out of control."

"But if you show..."

"Some control..."

"Then maybe master..."

"Will reconsider using..."

"You for this mission..."

The two girls were standing side by side holding hands as they watched Kenny. Their eyes seemed blank and they showed no emotion.

"Tell us Kenny, do you honestly believe he'll put you for the job?"

"He's afraid you'll eat away at Vasily..."

"leave him unusable and soul-less by the end..."

"Master will be very displeased..."

"If you eat Vasily..."

"Oh yes he will be very mad."

"Very mad."

"Do not eat him."

"We need him..."

"To lead us..."

"Master needs him."

The girls watched him before they shook their head.

"Master might give the girl another chance."

"She is the best at what she does..."

"Just she lost control..."

"We must wait and see..."

"Be patient little Kenny, order's will come.."

"And you may get your desire..."

"But restrictions will be put..."

"So be aware..."

*Gerul walked the hallways after finishing his reading* hmm that girl's scream could b heard all the way back in my room...i wonder if something happened *yawn's in boredom before rounding the corner and running into Vasily* hello "zvon" *gerul's forked tongue briefly snakes out as his nostils flare* tsssk tsk doubt is heavy on you...your species is plagued by so many intricacies i dont c how u manage to survive....


{Zvon = romanian for rumour}

Vasily paused when he saw the boy and he tsked, "I do not care about my kind..." he told him honestly and shook his head. "The only thing that matters is whether everyone in this school will come out of here alive. I've survive thanks to my own benefits, but you should try to stay away from my kind. They will grab you at your weakest hour." he shook his head. Although vampires can seduce, charm, and sometimes even bring someone under their spell, no one has 100%. Vasily being the success story, he can get anyone under his spell he just never likes to do it. He finds it...rather annoying.

*Gerul chuckled at Vasily's warning* hehe i appreciate the warning however i do not think it will be necessary. Although admittedly my kind hasnt been the best at self preservation...*a pain look quickly clouds his visage before disappearing* i happen to be the exception...and i must ask...why did you come back "zvon"? as far as I can see only harm will come from your return to the school and im sure uve considered the possibility....y then stay you?

The twins walked past Marionette without a glance at her. Reaching the fallen boy they gazed at it before the rock disintegrated into smaller pieces and they watched them fall to the floor like sand.

They tsked as they watched the boy, "We told you to be patient and to wait. You should not have gone after what you were not supposed to have. It seems little Kenny that you made a mistake." They spoke in unison before they laughed with a shake of their heads.

"Kenny...oh little Kenny."The girl bent down and brushed his hair out of his face. "The master will be very disappointed in your actions. We will say this, instead of taking out the girl, why not go after Vasily yourself. Whoever brings him back to the master...well you get it...so why not go Kenny but remember, do not eat him or Master will be angry."

"You know how much Master wnats Vasily. You know how important he is...so be careful."

The girl stood up and they both walked off. They were going to head to their master to report to him.

~~ ~~ ~~

"And as far as I can see, I don't really care about what you think or about what anyone thinks. Do you honestly believe that I'm here because of my own benefit. If all I'm going to get from people are speeches from people who do not understand anything then I do not need it. You sir, are just getting in my way. So if that is all you are going to ask then do not speak to me." he walked past him, now truly annoyed with the people in this school.

*as Vasily begins to walk away, Gerul politely bows* i apologize if I offended you. The question was not meant to reprimand merely philosophical musings... well I suppose then i will see you around "zvon" *gerul closes his eyes and begins to walk off, telling vasily a brief warning as he walks away* careful i sense forces moving toward you....take my words as you wish...* a silver flame engulfs Gerul as he soon disappears in the blaze*

Vasily glanced back at him, "Thanks for the warning..." he told him before he turned and continued to walk down the hall. He was so tired of this, but he knew he would not be able to get away from this, not now that he had returned. Now that the master knew he was back and still alive, they would try harder than before to get him back. "...not that I need it."



"Poor boy. So attached to the master that he wants so badly to impress him. Who knows, maybe if he eats a little of Vasily maybe he will die. They say, that those that drink from other vampires become poison."

"Sister...we should hurry...before master comes. If he knows of what is happening..."

"He will punish us all. Things are getting a little out of hand."

Vasily paused and looked down at the rope. "What in the-?" he asked himself before shaking his head. Without a second thought he kicked the rope away and moved to open the door that it had been trying to get you.

"People are getting weirder here and it seems like we've attracted just odder people...there is no saving this place, or the humans..."

As Vasily had kicked the rope and opened the door he couldn't see two feet in front of him as a dresser slammed into him from behind, pushing him inside as many silver adamant ropes tied up his limbs while the door shut soundlessly behind him.

"Hello Vasily, it seems you have been quite hard to find lately...Still as popular as ever?"

The room lit revealing a dungeon as the ropes lifted Vasily from the ground and chained him to the wall.

The person talking was nowhere to be found as the door disappeared and there were no windows in the room.

The moment it happened Vasily never stopped struggling, thrashing as hard as he could in his tied up state.

"Who are you?" he asked with a growl once everything around him changed.

"Let me go you stupid person." he struggled once more tugging on what chained him to the wall. There was no point in him struggling he knew, but he also knew that he had to get out of here. Although how he would do that would be impossible.
It is times like this he would use his powers, no matter the strain it put on him.

Vasily watched her when she came out. He was not going to let her get to him.

Of course he did not remember her but he had stopped struggling and watched her. "I don't know who you are..." he growled.

"Let me go you stupid witch. You have no right to keep me here or to tie me up. Let me go..." he said his eyes narrowing and his powers starting to go through the ropes. He was going to get out of here one way or another. And he was going to kill her the moment he got his hands around her throat.
