Vampiric Masters

Footsteps. They resounded and echoed off the walls throughout the quiet house, but then she would hear some clattering, metal objects clashing together under running water. She would then hear chopping, both occurring at the same time with little to no interval between. She would also hear scrubbing and water movement, all coming from the same room in the house. The kitchen. At least 3 people were in there, all seeming to do very different things but it was clear that the were working to all that entered. "You must be new. Come give us a hand" Christine, the smallest of the three girls, instructed with a warm smile. Her blond hair was curled at the ends but otherwise completely straight. Her eyes shared its color with the ocean and her lips were thin but still easily visible due to their natural beautiful pink color. Her skin was snow white which brought out her eyes even more and made them look even bluer "Oh don't be shy, even if you don't know how, surely it'd be a good thing to learn" her voice was soft and pleasant much as one would imagine a mother's to be.

"Don't be too forward Christine, you'll scare her away, don't you see she already looks worried" Elendra, the tall fair skinned woman said as she didn't take her eyes off the vegetables she was cutting which made it near impossible to tell what color her eyes were. Her dark black hair was cut short and stopped right before it reached her back. She just like Christine was wearing a white apron, however she also had on a chef's hat. "My name is Elendra, and before you misunderstand...we are not slaves." Elendra spoke calmly as she moved the knife gracefully as she chopped lettuce into small pieces, turning only once to see what Raphael looked like. "We're chefs, and we work the kitchen!" Christine said joyfully as she tilted her head to the side "William...I mean Master William, did allow you to come in here, didn't he?" another voice belonging to a redhead spokes as she watched water come to a boil in a large pot. She didn't turn to face Raphael, and it seemed for her to even acknowledge the poor girl was a stretch.

Elsewhere in the house William sat at the water's edge as he lathered up his hair with shampoo. His shirt was off but the water cast no reflection of him, nor did any mirror as such was the reason there weren't many mirrors in the house. William didn't need a reflection anyway, he already knew what he looked like, always had. Always would.

My apologies, leaving one alone in the bath can do that sometimes. Hmmm we should all do that vampire get together, we could have like ballroom dancing or something too~ Should have an invitation come to like all the houses, then everyone goes to whatever house is decided and bring their favorite slave.

Solara's eyes stared at him for a minute before she answered and she didn't seem bothered the least at the fact that her words came out slow and soft. "The other day I was surrounded by a lot of people that I can't say were particularly interested the least in leaving this planet. So you see, I couldn't abandon them to talk with a stranger, and I really wanted to talk to you. You seemed as serious and devoted as I am in getting off this planet." She explained to him while looking deeply into his eyes. Then his yellow hair caught her attention and immediately he could see her eyes grow bright due to the reflection of his yellow hair becoming more apparent in her dark purplish eyes. She didn't mention it though, not one bit however she did stare at it for a little.

"You know, I think if we work together our odds of success would double, even if it was simply communication." she said as she cracked her knuckles to pass the time.

William made his way back to the piano, he was sure she would find the clothes that he had hidden the clothes behind the door which she had just walked through. She would have to, she certainly wasn't the type to walk around causally in an unfamiliar house with nothing on. She would likely just put on her dirty clothes before that though, but all she would have to do is look towards the door to find the clothes. She would see white drawers, pair of folded dark blue denim jeans and a black tank top. She would not know it but it was William's own outfit rather than an outfit he had bought for the occasion. As his fingers touched down on the piano he remembered that he had to see to it that she had eaten. She probably did, squirrel or something, but the fact that he didn't know made him uneasy. William did not like not knowing things, which was probably the reason someone felt it was fine to toy with him by telling them Raphael was a boy.

Then again, Raphael seemed so stuck up and was covered in muck which was very uncharacteristic of a female. Could have been an honest mistake, certainly not one Momo Karl would make so easily, well maybe Karl. William played Moonlight Sonata to pass the time before he finally got up from the piano and made his way into the kitchen. Elendra and Christine sat there attentively with breakfast already prepared and stared at William as he entered the room. They had clearly heard him coming and they had come to be as paranoid as mice scurrying in the darkness of the night. They like many of his slaves were scared to death of William, usually because of his voice which some had said was more frightening than his eyes. He wondered if Raphael would grow to fear him as wel. but such couldn't be helped. "Lunch for one, please" William said as he looked at the woman and they immediately got to work without so much as a question. It was probably because they had gotten word of the punishment from earlier but it has seemed to slip his mind.

William paid attention as it suddenly went silent and he just continued walk. Her footsteps were still right behind him and he wondered if he had said something to upset her. Had she any experience with masters he would have surely apologized but she hadn't. He couldn't allow her to think that it was normal for a master to apologize to the slave, otherwise she would have extremely harsh times later if she was traded or sold to another master vampire. "Surely you know then that he left as a sign to show he had been captured, or his captors simply did not believe it was fitting to allow a wild human to bring a weapon with him" William held his tongue for no one but he also was breaking the rules a little bit. He was giving her hope, even if a shred of it. "If in the unlikely chance that he hasn't been captured, then that is a god thing. Means he'll live out the rest of his days in the forest in peace unless he draws attention to himself" William spoke in a calm voice so that he would put her more at ease as he walked towards the bathroom. The sound of running water slowly became louder and louder as they drew closer to it.

He eventually stopped at a door of one room and pushed it open, only for a wave of steam to wash over them. They were standing at the opening of what seemed to be a rather large white room, there were no windows but there was a white toilet. There were no cabinets, no drawers, no peepholes, no mirrors, bu there was a single toothbrush and toothpaste. There appeared to be a large portion of the room that was filled with water and she could see straight to the bottom. It looked like that of a pool but there was fresh soap lined up along the edges, as if variety really mattered. There was light steam coming from the water and there was even a shower in the room. There were washclothes at one end of the enormous bath and shampoo and conditioner at the other. He didn't wait for her approval before he began walk away not waiting for her to disrobe "I believe I can leave you here" William said aloud as he began to walk back in the direction they had come.

A vampire reunion/meeting sounds fun, would definitely allow Raphael the chance to possibly see how her brother is doing.

"You can ask me anything, as long as it is in a polite respectful manner" William explained as he watched her turn away, he didn't mind. Not at all. She seemed to have disdain for him already, but that was somewhat natural considering she was new to being enslaved and he was was her master. She then told him that she was a female, just as William assumed, and did so too easily. There was absolutely no doubt in her voice to the point that he had no choice but to believe that she was telling the truth. After all William had only met so few people to lie about such, but that was only to be grouped with females. He watched her face wrinkle up as she seemed to focus on the bow "I figured keeping the bow would allow you to recall more delightful memories, not any bad ones." William explained.

"How unfortunate, but you won't have to worry yourself about such creatures anymore, only humans" William said with a light laugh as she expressed wanting to bathe herself. He didn't quite understand it, but he doubted she made much sense to anyone. "Well if you'll wash yourself, I can at least show you around the house to the bathroom" he said before he began walking a little, expecting her to follow. She seemed rather close to her brother, such was to be expected seeing as they were both alone in the forest for quite sometime. "You'll find that jokes are hard to come by, Raphael but If like you he has been sold in the area, then it might be possible to find him." William said as he walked. It seemed he wasn't quite afraid of the bow or the idea about her making a break for the door.
