A dark haired man, was strapped to a metal table. His shirt gone, his jeans at the ends were torn to shreds. He was breathing heavy, as a dark figure approached him. "Why do you resist me werewolf?" The werewolf only growled at the figure beside him. The figure laughed, "it's useless to struggle Justin." Justin only growled, "I won't ever give into you Dracula never will." There was a tattoo on his left shoulder, as the half moon hit his left shoulder.

"I must be either suicidal, or extremely stupid. Or both." Natalie muttered to herself as she looked up through the half moon night to see a castle in the distance. It had taken her most of the day to get here on foot, only stopping to relieve herself or to eat, or to rest for a moment or two. She pulled her shoulder length dirty blonde hair into a ponytail taking a deep and soothing breath as she patted her gun to feel safe, it within very easy reaching distance, as well as the daggers, but her gun made her feel more safe than much else. She's been a loner for as long as she can remember, growing up with the stories of vampires and werewolves. Most thought her crazy for believing in such things. But she figures, if there are so many stories, some must be true. So, she walked to the castle carefully opening the front door after checking to see if it was unlocked or not. She just as carefully closed it, but the doors slightly creaked. And if the myths were true, she really could not stay there for long. So she quickly decided on a random direction and headed East.

Justin watched as Dracula left, to go and feed he sighed he pulled on the straps feeling the silver burn his skin. He grunted in pain, before letting out a discouraged howl he knew no one was coming and getting him out of this mess. Once the howl was finished, he just laid there the silver straps holding him to the table.

Natalie heard a strange howl in the castle and frowns at the lost and foregone note that sounded and heads toward it, being as careful and as quiet as she can and after a few minutes, after the howl ended she did her best to see which room it had come from biting her lip softly. "Eeiny meeny, miney, this one." She said under her breath as she opened a random door hoping that she was correct in her choice. She wouldn't be able to leave such a pitying thing locked up if she could help it.

Justin had heard a door creak open, it had to be that bastard Dracula. As he started to struggle against the straps again. He swallowed, his wrists were starting to burn. He didn't care though he wanted out of this place, he didn't want anymore of those tests. He didn't want to be Dracula's slave if he succeeded in making the thing that would help him control Justin.

It was darker than the outside of the hall and that was indeed saying something. There seemed to be sound of something straining against something else but Natalie couldn't tell up from down, but still continued forward inching the door a little closed letting the candle light from the hall enter at least doing her best to get used to the extremely poor lighting in here taking hesitant steps trying not to run into anything. Trouble with good intentions is that they usually fly out the window as her hip crashed into something and a clatter of...metal? Reached her ear and she extends her hand to try and 'see' with her hands what it was. A table then. Full of...some sort of tools or something. So if there was a table, there must be a bed. Good reasoning, and maybe the thing trapped was in here. She grabbed something random hoping it could help in setting free whatever was trapped and once more walked hesitantly forward. Should she say anything? Well if it was some sort of beast maybe speaking sweetly will help? "I'm here to help." She says softly, kindly, hoping that she conveyed the truth of her words convincingly enough, for it was true. She meant no harm to the thing trapped as she took another step not knowing where she was going.

Justin stopped struggling, hearing another voice. Looking over at where the voice came from, he saw a woman looking for where he was. "Hey over here in the corner," his voice was weak he really didn't know how weak he was since the tests the vampire had done to him a few minutes ago he was still breathing heavy.

Natalie turned her head toward the voice and went toward it coming to where he, as the voice was definitely male. She shook her head coming to where the male was being held. "Let me see if I can't get you free of your binds." She said not wanting to say she couldn't see that well but at least she could make out a masculine form tied down with something. She placed her hand on his arm and trailed her finger tips down until she felt the binding there doing her best to ignore how strong the male felt testing whatever the bind was recognizing the material. "Silver?" She asked confused.

Justin only shook his head, "then you must know the stories about vampires and werewolfs. You better hurry up he might come back any second now." He looked up to the window, Dracula had gone out from, he swallowed, he didn't know if he would be able to get out of here or not.

"Sure. Was raised with them. Kinda kept my tattered sanity together. Thing is I can't really see well in this dark room. And I don't want to do you any more harm than already done. You're going to have to tell me when the bind is loose." She said going to where the bind began and pulled to get the bind loose so she could pull it off.

Justin could feel the bind on his left wrist loosen. He pulled his left arm out, before going for the one on his right arm, his hand burned as he pulled at the restraint getting his other arm out. "Come on we need to leave now before he gets back I don't know how weak I am so I might need some help getting out of this place."

"Of course. I'm pretty sure the front entrance I used is out. Is there another way out of here?" Natalie asks.

Justin thought for a moment, "there's a window at the back of the castle. If we can get there without any of the others finding out that I've escaped and your here ten we should be home free." He thought for a second, "I should probably tell you where were exactly going because you can't see well in this darkness." He got to his feet, his legs almost gave out under him. Before he grabbed the table he was strapped to to keep him upright.

Natalie went toward the sound figuring that if this man was indeed a werewolf he'd be weak on his legs her hand on his shoulder helping him stand straight. "Probably for the best." She said with a smile not at all certain if she was even looking at him correctly but would trust the werewolf over the blood thirsty vampire any day. They were said to be loyal and that felt right to her hearing it so had distributed the word onto herself for she was loyal to those she was close to. Not that she was close to a lot of people.

Justin started making his way toward the back, only stopping when his ears picked up the faintest of sounds. The back window was closed that didn't mean anything I him though, he kicked the glass of the window out. He sighed hearing other vampires coming, "hey I didn't get your name?" He heard them getting closer, "I'll be fine get moving it's a straight shot to town from here." With that he started the shift once he was done, he had grown in height he let out a growl clearly seeing in the dark now. He clawed a vampire, making it hit the wall he looked over his shoulder at the human behind him before turning his attention back to the vamps in front of him fighting them to keep them back.

"Natalie Hawkins. And I'm not about to let you die here." Natalie said her eyes thinned as the door opened allowing more of the candle light inside allowing her to see better. She calculated and took a knife out of her belt and threw it, it flying into the throat of a vampire who was about to sneak in an attack and once the others got distracted at what it could be on the steel dagger, she went to the window offering her hand for the werewolf. "You can introduce yourself after we get out of here." She said with a cocky grin.

Justin looked at the other vamps, he gave that wolffish grin. Before he quickly shifted back, he took her hand jumped down shifted back to wolf, lowering his head in a gesture for her to get onto his back. He looked over his shoulder seeing the vamps starting to jump down themselves.

Natalie quickly put herself on the wolf's back as she did not want to be caught by these things thank you very much.

Justin bolted, heading toward the forest. Once he got there he looked over his shoulder once, seeing the vamps still after them. He was weakening, for the long distance he had to run. He soon stopped, he set down Natalie, behind a tree before bolting the other way taking all of the vamps with him.

Natalie did get off but watched as the werewolf lead the vampires away but for a few stragglers. She grabbed two daggers and backed into the forest praying the sun to rise quicker God damn it all. She knew the werewold had been weakening and wanted to get to him to continue to save his life.
