"I'm not sure how'd they fare considering Michael is injured and Leon is trying his best to keep his shadow clone going. Hopefully, he'll have enough energy to also fight. Right now, they're just wandering the halls."

"Hmm... Well, I'll give them the next scariest woman in that castle, next to Mandy..." I say. "Increase their chances of survival..."

"I've been good, thanks. Just trying to get back into the groove of things. Been waiting on Wraith this whole time to respond to my post on this thread. Technically though, Leon and Michael are still available to interact with. They're both still in Grim's castle. Well, one of the Leon's, if we're splitting hairs." I say.

"Oh, my bad, I completely forgot about them!" I say, rubbing the back of my head, embarassed. "Well, if you looked at the IC then Drac's planning to attack the castle, so they'd get involved eventually..."

"I'll admit, it was a nice try, but I saw right through you." I say. "At the same time, I just wanted to show off a neat trick." I admit.

"Heh..." I put my arms behind my head. "Alright then. So, how you been Venny-boy?"

A sudden puff of smoke occurs in front of you. When it clears, it appears that I have been replaced with a log. I'm now standing a few feet away. "Hey there." I simply say, smirking.

I drop the log. "Gonna make you uncomfortable for comedic effect... Oh well."

"Yes, but beware....my son has a keen sense for finding insects. I would turn into a mouse, or he may just add you to his collection." Drac says, smiling a bit.

"..." HIM turns into a mouse and scurries off.

Oddly, only drac is feeling negative things. Most of the spirits are calm, or happy. He visits Tsubaki."You know the project I told you about...I need it done faster..." He says."But come on, you gave me little to wo-""You're allowed unlimited funds.""...You're going though with the attack aren't you.""Yes......If I fail....I want you to inform my heir....Understood?""Yes...king."And with that short back and forth between him and tsubaki, Drac sits in his home, drinking tea."You know, I can tell you're there. You're the only living thing in this dimension at the moment...." Drac says to him, not caring much.

"Of course." HIM says, jumping down. "Well, be seeing you." He scuttles away, rather slowly. It'll probably take him ten minutes to just get out of that room. "Y'know, I never noticed, but it's kind of fun seeing things from an insect's perspective..." He goes on, using up those ten minutes well... talking about how unique it is to be at an insect's position.

"....I..see....fine...." Drac says. "I will attack castle Grim, but before I do....I want to get an ace in the hole." He says, before vanishing again.

HE follows him, turning into a small, insignificant little bug, unnoticed as he clings to Drac seeing what Drac is up to. Also, he feeds on the negative emotions coming off Drac, and anyone around him, becoming stronger as he feeds.

Drac reacts....violently. First, he unleashes quite the energy blast into the hand of horror, aiming to destroy it. He then punches Him in the stomach, as hard as he can with his gauntleted hand."SHUT UP!" He roars.

HIM closes the box, and it protects the hand before HE teleports a ways behind Drac, out of reach. "Well, that set you off... I'm not meaning to torture you, if that's what you're thinking, I came to warn you... This will happen... Unless Grim no longer exists. I have no power over him, but if he were removed, and his wife, I could control his son... Your children would be spared..." Even now, HE lies. While Minimandy doesn't seem like much, she's as ruthless as her mother, and she'd surely exact revenge in some form, but that didn't concern HIM. The son, he can handle, but the daughter was almost annoyingly like her mother... Except for her rather creepy... fondness... for her brother.

He is chained to a tree, and before him is bug and Lisa, kneeling. Grim is standing behind them...."You coulda stopped this...." Grim says."Daddy...please...help me..." Lisa whines, almost crying."No...no...end me, not th-" Drac starts, before Grim severs Lisa's head with his scythe. Drac attempts to move forward, but the tree and chains hold him. "I WILL DESTROY YOU!" Drac screams, his rage being felt."You had your chance..." Grim says, before lining up the cut to sever bug's head."It's...not your fault dad.....I am gonna...miss you...." Bug says, before he too, is reaped."You...monster....I...will.....DESTROY YOU! I WILL KILL YOU! YOUR WIFE! YOUR CHILDREN! I WILL DESTROY ALL OF YOU!" He roars, his mouth almost foaming."No....Good bye...drac..." Grim says, before swinging his scythe into Drac. Drac fades, before returning to reality. He looks shocked, and he falls to his knees.

HIM doesn't seem to care much. "Death is inevitable as long as the Reaper lives. Your children will not be as lucky as you. To become immortal. This is their fate... Drac, you called him a monster, but Grim was only doing his job. Funny, it's kind of sweet, how you all were destined to be reaped at nearly the same time. Least they'll have that, I guess, since you're not willing to do what must be done to save them. Oh well, I doubt they'd blame you. I wouldn't. It's only natural that Death do his job. Right? He's no monster, like you said..." HIM says, testing how this has affected Drac.

"Proof? What would be that...proof?" Drac asks, getting a bit angry.

HIM moves the box so he's holding it forward. "This box holds something that allows me to see in the future, to what will be. This is a future, where you do not end death. You tried everything... except killing the reaper..." He opens the box right in front of Drac, even though Drac might recognize the item, he never sees Horror's Hand. Instead, he's plunged directly into his nightmare, with HIM spectating every second. The nightmare is so realistic, so vivid, that Drac thinks he's actually experiencing it. As if it were an event going on in real life, at that moment.
