Welcome to Gaia! ::

*Dorien walks around in a plain getting fresh air* Gone so long and expects things to be the same. I guess this sort of thing happens. *Dorien teleports to the top of the tower at the bar unnoticed. He finds his hidden stash of scotch in one of the walls. He sits in one of the lounge chairs, opens the bottle, and drinks deeply.*

* Key's unfurled her wings, shielding the children *If the son of the Count decides to come near him, he'll first have me to deal with. Being a being of light and dark has some distinct advantages, including immunities to everything that affects the others. I may hate fighting, but I will kill if Tylier and Niryia are threatened.* Ty sighs *We don't always need protecting. We aren't the frightened little kids we were when mom and dad were killed. You should know that better than anyone.

"Light and Darkness does nothing to a being like him...I wish I could explain more but it is better to see for yourself than a mere insight from me and Constantin, but even then I do not know as much as I should about what he is, just that he is in the process of becoming a full vampire...I have my reasons for being worried about you all, especially my worry towards Dorien."
Shade put a hand over her heart. "Besides Keys, everyone has a weakness, we just haven't found yours yet, and lets hope he does not before we do."

Constantin frowned as he listened. "He is a half vampire, but...hes not human either. We have not been able to detect what this other half is and something has been blocking Shade's psychic powers, so she is unable to find out that way either."

The spider continued to record, sitting silently in a corner. The person watching through the monitor wondered if they could get the spider closer without detection. The device began to crawl a little closer.

The person behind the monitor jumped slightly in their chair. It was surprising that Dorien had detected the spider so quickly. The person snickered and picked up a walkie talkie, speaking into it. "Det virker som de er nå klar over mitt nærvær. Skal jeg provosere dem nå, eller vente?

"Fă tot ce este nevoie pentru a le ademeni aici..."

"Yes sir...I shall wait for now."

(Sure smile )

Shade thought about it for a bit, looking up at Constantin. It did sound like a good idea. "I guess so, and no I don't know when he will strike. Even if he does, once we get to where the Dracula family is residing, we have to get past security which covers the entire outside."

Constantin shuddered a little. "There is some sort of sound barrier around even just a large portion around the area, it is so far out that we couldn't even see where they live."

"The sound that the barrier gives off is very high pitched, there were some dead humans around so it shows that the pitch is very dangerous to human ears, but still causes a great deal of symptoms to us." Shade could already remember the headache she had, it almost felt like her head would explode while both her and Constantin suffered temporary internal bleeding.

Shade frowned when she heard what Dorien said. "Mechanical spider? How did it get up to the tower if it's mechanical..." She was sure they would notice a mechanical spider. since it seemed a little bit on the impossible side for someone to manage to get it to look real.

The spider wandered downstairs, hiding in a corner to watch everyone.
"Now, where to strike...." The person behind the monitor was staring down at buttons and levers, which they had no need for, they were really just for show. The device shrank down a little, crawling across the floor and over to one of Keys' siblings. Still undetected it crawled onto Ty's back and sat there, waiting. It wasn't a heavy device either, it was precisely made to be an exact replica of a spider, exact in any size, look and weight(spiders did not weigh much either, thus explains why you never feel them crawling onto you unless it is on your bare skin).

Shade frowned, not sure where the spider came from. It certainly looked real. "I-I'm not sure. I've never seen anything like it." She stepped a little closer, wondering who would've sent such a thing, and who had such a skill to make it.

Constantin was confused as well. He didn't recognize it from anywhere.

The spider merely stayed still for a bit before cutting through the vines holding onto it. It moved a lot faster, and before they could stop it, it jumped from Niryia and Ty, biting them both before landing in front of a startled Shade and Keys. The Dracula family crest suddenly appeared on the spider. A voice came from the device, though it was hard to tell if it was a female voice or a male voice. "Nikolas sends his best regards to his most favorite person, Miss Shade Coderojo. The antidote your going to need is within Castle Dracula, I'm sure you know where it is. My lovely sound barrier covers the whole lot. Can't wait to see you and your friends~" The device suddenly shut down.
