@Aisling "You know... vampires can turn into any animal they like to," Dracula told Fiona. "If your mommy wants to, she can turn into a bat or a mouse, or even an elephant."
I have only tried the cat form but I am told that I can. However, it takes a lot of concentration to change from one form to another. It is because I am a vampire, dear. Mystique spoke with a purr.
You are the coolest mom that ever lived! Fiona spoke in excitement.
Thank you, my little sweetheart. Mystique purred softly.
@Aisling "Vampires can do much more than that," Dracula told. "We're really strong, we've got good senses, we can read minds and use telepathy, we can control animals and the weather, we can hypnotize others, we can climb up walls..."
And we live for a very long time. I will always be this age and you will grow older. Once you are full grown, you may choose to become a vampire. If you became a vampire now, you will not grow up and will be a child for the rest of your life. Mystique spoke gently.
"When I am old enough to be a vampire, will you tell me?" Fiona asked.
"Yes I will. But please put me down so that I can change back to human form. Mystique spoke.
Fiona put Mystique down and watched her change into a human who realized her mistake. Quickly, Mystique began to put on her clothes.
@Aisling "It should be Fiona who tells you when she feels old enough. Not the other way around," Dracula said. "If Toma asked me to change him right now, I'd tell him about the limitations that would bring. If he still wanted it, I'd do it. Fiona's intelligent. I think she'll get what such limitations mean."
Why can't I just wait until mommy says that I am old enough? Besides I might change my mind between now and five years from now. And I don't want to be a vampire anyways which might hurt mommy's feelings. I love my mommy and would not want to hurt her feelings. Fiona asked Count Dracula.
Mystique simply smiled for she knew if Fiona wanted to be turned she would find a way.
@Aisling "Because something as big as this should be your decision, Fiona. Nobody else despite you can tell whether you want to be changed or not, or whether you feel old enough for it or not," Dracula answered. "There are many people who don't want to be vampires, by the way. I didn't want to become one either."
I hope that you was able to get some work done, loan. And I am glad that both of you are well. Count Dracula, do you need anything before I leave? Mystique asked.
