Chapter 325: Sanctum Vampires
Narrator: Back in the castle.
*A vampire is blown through a door, completely destroying the door. Coming from the door are Joe, Emily, and Daniel*
*They walk through a short hall that is dark with vampire statues on both sides and lit torches hanging from the walls*
Joe: Quite the fancy design this hall has.
*The hall leads into a large, square room that has a large machine. Inside the machine, there are a bunch of people hooked up to it*
Emily: What is… this?
*They get closer to the machine and see that some of the people are people they recognize. Everyone in the machine are all unconscious*
*Joe and Emily have shocked expressions*
Joe: Keith. Dom.
Emily: Jane. RAG.
Daniel: You know these people?
Joe: Yeah, well, just the four we mentioned.
Emily: Zaydra was right when she guessed that the vampires were the cause of the disappearances.
*They go to look at the computer by the machine that has a list of names of the people hooked up*
Emily: This list should let us know everyone that is hooked up to this machine.
*They look through the names. Soon, Joe and Emily see a name that shocks them*
Emily: No way…
*The name that shocks them is “Zenfaro”*
Joe: Zenfaro? Zeth’s and Zaydra’s older brother? I thought he was dead?
*They look at the unconscious people and see a man with short, blonde hair. He is wearing a green uniform. The man is nearly 7 feet tall*
Emily: That must be him.
Joe: But how? If he’s not dead, how can Harmona not detect his life force?
*Daniel is looking at the computer*
Daniel: I think this answers those questions. This machine is a life force suppressor. While they are not dead, they can’t be conscious while attached to the machine.
Joe: Clever bastards. Come on, let’s get them off this thing.
*Joe starts moving towards it but suddenly, a shadowy figure appears in front of him and punches him which knocks him back into the wall at the other end of the room*
Emily: What just happened!?
*A shadowy figure appears in front of Emily too, but she jumps back before she is hit*
Emily: Who is there!? Show yourselves!
*A group of five step out of the shadows (The room is pretty dark as the only lighting is lit torches on the walls.)*
*Based on the darkness around their eyes, they are elite vampires. Three are male and two are female. They are wearing black vampire cloaks*

Narrator: Sanctum Vampires.
*Daniel’s eyes open wide as he looks at them*
Daniel: Mom? Dad?
Female Vampire 1: Oh, look honey, it’s our son!
Narrator: Sanctum Vampire member and Daniel’s mother – Diane.
Male Vampire 1: Oh, it is. Good eye, Diane.
Narrator: Sanctum Vampire member and Daniel’s father – Rob.
Diane: Oh Rob, why didn’t anyone tell us that Daniel was in this castle? Now we have another chance to “change his allegiances”.
Daniel: Why!? Why are you doing this!?
Diane: As we have told you before. If we become vampires, we can all live happily without worry.
Daniel: You can’t just sacrifice everyone else!
Rob: You will have to realize that the vampires can’t be beaten. It’s hopeless.
*Daniel just has an angry stare*
Female Vampire 2: Enough.
Narrator: Leader of the Sanctum Vampires – Helen.
*Helen has brown hair that is in a bowl haircut. She looks relatively young, like a human woman in her 20s*
Helen: Allow me to introduce ourselves. We are the Sanctum Vampires. My name is Helen. I am the leader. Sorry, but we can’t allow you to release our sacrifices.
Joe: Sacrifices? Do you mean as in energy for the ritual?
Helen: I suppose what we do with them isn’t your concern.
Emily: Those are our friends! They are definitely our concern!
Helen: You can join them in the ritual if you want.
Joe: No thanks. We are going to defeat you and rescue them!
*Helen smiles*
Helen: You must have a death wish then. You can’t defeat us.
Daniel: I will take on my parents. I shall leave the other three to you two!
Joe: Got it!
Diane: Don’t worry, Daniel. We won’t kill you. We will just change you into one of us.
Rob: It will be great!
Daniel: I can’t believe you two!
Narrator: Joe, Emily, and Daniel are about to begin their battle with the Sanctum Vampires! What special abilities do they have?
