The Vampire Hunters Mistake (LunarWolf and GuardianAngel)

Circe just looked around for a brief moment in time, and then they were soon enough entering a new area of the castle. Once they were entering she was just looking around a bit, and then studying the paintings that were on the walls.
 
"every seven hundred years a human is born in the royal vampire line they are gifted with the gift of communication which allows them to speak to animals. this also ensures the purity of the royal line as there is only one family that can turn a royal human into a vampire should they wish it but any child born of that human is a pure vampire there is no human mixed in their blood like there are others" Drake walked slowly so she could see the progression leading to the last human who was born when he was but Ren's age
 
Circe was just looking for a brief moment before she was stating that she didn't understand why and how a pureblooded human was being born to the family of pureblooded vampires.
 
Drake chuckled "it was a gift given by the first dragon to the young vampire princess who showed him kindness. she tended to his wounds when he was badly hurt and rather than kill him. so he gave her a gift that he first born would be human and that child would help keep the line pure but such a child would only be born once ever seven hundred years to prevent a forced breeding program"
 
Circe was just giving a nod of her head after a moment in time. Yet it wasn't long before Ren seemed to come zipping out of nowhere and was landing in her arms, just nuzzling against her as though he were a cat. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to leave without you." she was mumbling to the creature as he chittered at her.
 
Ren was just looking at Drake for a moment before he was stating that he had just been worried, that she had disappeared on him. That he was afraid that she was going to leave him behind.
 
Circe was just shaking her head before she spoke, "I promised your mother before she died that I would stay with you, that I would protect you. I shall not break that promise."
 
Circe just looked around as they made their way deeper into the area, Ren just coiled around her neck a bit.
 
Circe just looked around for a brief moment in time before she found herself sliding down from Drake's back slowly. Ren was just chirping sadly as he looked around. 'None of them are alive....' the tiny dragon spoke in a sad voice. All of the unbroken eggs within the room were stillborns it seemed. At least that is what most of the dragons had thought, although Circe was just doing a small circle in place as though trying to find something.
 
Drake took a deep breath and breathed warm air on to the eggs "I wander if they are simply slumbering or if they have truly passed they were form my hatching"
 
Ren was just looking around before he was speaking, 'I don't even hear any of them.' Yet he was watching Circe who had a rather strange look on her face, and it wasn't long before she was putting a finger to her lips. "Help me.... Help me... I can't.... Its dark...." she whispered in a low voice and just continued to look around before she was moving off towards a cluster of eggs that were more in the dark part of the room. Ren chirped a bit before streaking after her quickly.
 
Drake looked and found the torches lighting them for her so she could see the whole room if his kin were truly gone he would burry them and give them peace rather then leave them down below the castle
 
No most of the eggs were shattered and a very dark color, a very dull color. A symbol that the dragon was in fact deceased. Yet at the time Circe almost seemed frantic about something which had Ren chittering a bit as he circled around her. She just stopped dead in her walking and was just taking in a slow breath to let it out slowly. "I hear you.... I hear your cry for help.... Please.... Keep calling out." Circe was speaking after a moment in time which just had Ren looking a bit confused at first before following after her. No there was one that was alive, but trapped within its eggs.
 
Drake moved with her helping her move other eggs as the shells were heavy for a human and younger dragon "keep talking to hit Circe we need to find them" Drake knew that they needed to keep looking the fact that the child had survived this long gave him hope
 
It took a little bit of searching although Ren found himself a bit concerned. It was almost as though Circe was picking up more on the emotions of the unborn dragon. The tiny creature was stating that it was getting harder and harder to breathe, it was frightened. And it was almost as though Circe was also struggling to catch her breath. Yet it wasn't long before she was falling to her knees next to an egg, one that had been hiding in the darkness in the far corner, away from everything else. "Don't be scared.... you are safe...." Circe was whispering to the egg as she just touched it gently, Ren already chittering to Drake to lead him that way.
 
Drake moved to them and then pushed Circe out of the way and first blew air on the egg giving him some air before he blasted the egg with fire which would shatter the egg freeing the little one. Drake then scooped the infant up and rubbed it with his nose gently assuring it that there was an elder near before handing the little one to Circe "here hold it close. the little one is fully developed but will need ot be kept warm and it's too cold here"
 
Circe was moving out of the way and soon enough the baby dragon was being pushed into her arms gently, which just had her wrapping her arms around the creature. She was shushing it gently and telling it that it was safe now. She was taking off the shawl that she was wearing so that she could wrap it around the tiny dragon, not really caring if she got a bit cold.
 
"we need to return to the castle but first do you hear anymore infants" Drake wanted to make sure there were no others slowly dying a painful death
 
Circe was just looking around the room for a brief moment in time before she was closing her eyes and letting out a slow breath, just focusing for the moment in time. She was gently calling out to anybody within the room, telling them to give her some kind of sign. Yet there was absolutely nothing that she could hear and she was shaking her head sadly.
 
Circe was just nodding her head as she held the creature close to her and she was making her way towards Drake so that they could get going.
