Roleplay
Everywhere in the town of Station Square is quiet. All of the residense are asleep as the night time sky hovers over the town. Owls hooting, bats flying around, and stars twinkle in the sky. Everyone is sound asleep with dreams without care. All....except for one.

Down on the far west of town is a long and thick forest, surrounded by shrubbery, trees almost as big as a seven story buulding, and vines hanging here and there. But hopping from tree to tree is a mysterious figure that passes by very swiftly, not making a sound.

"The opening's almost there." A female voice called as the figure landed near the edge of a large open area in the middle of the forest. As the figure walked to the middle, the silver-blue glow from the moon shines upon a black tomboyish-goth female cat with her crimson hair shining from the light. Every month, almost to the full moon, Crymson always come to the moddle of the forest to gaze at the moon at midnight. But when a full moon is in bloom, only Crymson's blue fire power intensifies.

"Wow, I never knew you use to come over here with your brother." Her Chao, Stun came beside her. She remind Crymson about the spot she and her late brother, Shredder, use to play when they were little. Now with Crymson being alone, she uses the open area as a training ground for her. "It's very open."

"Yeah, it sure is." She lie down on the grass as she gazed at the moon. Crymson loves the silver-blue glow illuminating the round object in space. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, feeling a cause of warmth and comfort inside herself. She gazed again at the moon and wondered. "Hmm, I wish he was here." She said, reffering to her long time friend and lover, Static.

"Oh, Static? I don't know. Are you mad that he's not here?" Stun asked, sitting down next to Crymson.

"No, I don't blame him. He's probably either asleep or on a mission in the different dimension that he lives in. No matter how far apart we are, I still part of his heart in me. Even this." She showed Stun her Sensing ring on her right pinky. She gave Static the other half on Christmas, a few weeks ago after the dreaded Bah Humbug incident. The rings hold a power to sense the other person who is holding the other if the holder is in serious danger of any kind. Crymson looked at her watch, showing the time 12:00 AM "But I sometimes wish he was over here. That way it'll feel more romantic and...." Crymson happened to blush really bright red at that part.

It was a typical night for Twilight the Lycalo. Confined like a caged animal inside an abandoned house not far from the forest, he was forced to remain in the same area until the sun made its ascension the following morning. His inability to sleep made these nights long and cumbersome. He sat against a wall with a small number of fluorescent black light tubes surrounding him. His golden eyes grimaced at the full moon up in the midnight sky. While he was normally able to endure the entire night with no difficulties, seeing the full moon made his chest burn. It appeared as if the living Nightmare's will to be unleashed was strengthened during the full moon. Twilight got to his feet and headed for the open window while remaining with range of the ultraviolet lights. He leaned out slightly and inhaled deeply, allowing the fresh and crisp night air to flow through his keen nostrils. While he loved this time of day for how peaceful it was, he absolutely despised it and feared it for the dark secret within him.

Back with Crym...

"You know what I wish for?" Crymson asked Stun. She is still on the ground, looking at the moon.

"What, for Static to come?" Stun giggled.

"Heh, that. But, I wonder is I can be half Vampire at night." Crymson sighed deeply. "I mean, I love the mythology of the vampiric subject. It just riles my blood to a boiling point. And when I'm out here at night, I feel like I want to dance to the moon." She smiled warmly at the thought.

"Alright, I'll be looking in the forest for some fruit." Stun suggested as he flew away.

"Okay, don't get lost or hurt." Crymson replied.

A margay was jumping from tree to tree in the forest. It was his favorite thing besides swinging from vines. He was enjoying his time, when he heard a sound and decided to investigate. He silently started looking for the source of the sounds he was hearing. He saw something purple flying around the forest: it was a chao. He decided to follow the chao, to see what it was doing here.

Near the margay, a white-and-black furred fox slowly began to look at the sky. With a sad but terrified expression on her face, she muttered "I apologize for anything that I'm about to do." As her eyes found the full moon, she began to transform. She grew large and vicious, and her fangs and claws got large. Her fur grew out and turned a solid silver gray. Her eyes dilated as her transformation became completed. She let out a loud howl and ran off.

Back in the room that housed Twilight, a worried expression spread across his face. His large and sensitive ears twitched about as he picked up a distant noise. A howl of some sort which sounded strangely familiar; something his inner Nightmare would let out. The burning in his chest increased and he winced in pain and clutched the fluffy white fur adorning his chest as he backed away from the window. There was a disturbance within the night and Nightmare was trying with all its might to be part of it.

Crymson sat up after hearing a howl traveling across the air. She looked around to find out where the sound might come from. With no avail, she can only see the trees around her from the light of the moon. "Stun?" She called her Chao.

"Right here, with some berries." Stun came with a leaf full of blueberries. Crymson was relieved that Stun didn't get hurt. As Stun sat the berries down, the two started to snack on them.

The margay kept following the chao, until he saw it meet up with someone, bingo, he thought to himself. His green eyes glinted in the moonlight. After watching for a minute,he jumped down into the clearing and looked at Crymson,"Beautiful night, isn't it?" he asked.

Crymson jumped as she was alarmed by the newcomer. Her heart started racing quickly. She took a gulp before speaking. "Uhhh, yeah. It really is. Especially the moon." She smiled.

The margay smiled too, "My name is Vyne. What's yours?"

"My name is Crymson. It's nice to meet you Vyne. And this is my Chao, Stun." Crymson beamed a smile that even her teeth glow from the moons light. "It sure is quiet out here isn't it?"

Vyne stretched his arms, "Yep, and that's the way I like it." He noticed that Crymson was enjoying the blueberries, "Are blueberries your favorite fruit?" he asked.

"I love any kind of fruit. But, yes. Blueberries are sweet and delicious." She giggled as she put another berry in her mouth. She looks back at Vyne. "So, what brings you here?"

Vyne shrugged, "I was visiting the city, and decided to go for a walk through the forest. Then I heard something and decided to figure out what it was: it was your chao, Stun. So I followed him til he went back to you. And here I am." He looked back into the forest, then back to Crymson,"Would you like some raspberries?"

"Yes, please." Crymson replied. "It'll be like a midnight snack picnic here." Crymson giggled gleefully.

"Okay, coming right up." Vyne bent over and poked a hole in the ground. Then he reached into the satchel at his side and pulled out a raspberry, which he placed in the hole and covered up. He pointed the palms of his hands at the dirt and focused, soon a raspberry plant sprouted out and grew some raspberries. Vyne took the raspberries and handed themm to Crymson, with a smile.

Crymson took some raspberries and ate one of them. After a few chews, she feels her mouth watering up. "Mmm-mm!!" She swallowed. "That was the most sweetest raspberry I've ever sink my teeth into. Thanks, Vyne." She smiled again and ate another berry.

He smiled, "you're welcome."

Vyne's shadow started to move on its own, then formed into a cloaked shadow figure with glowing yellow eyes, that floated behind Vyne's head.

Things were not so happy for Twilight at the moment. The burning in his chest appeared to increase and when he didn't think his greatest fear would surface, fate had chosen to forsake him. A flickering light caught his attention and it filled his hear with dread. It was one of the 3 UV lights and it eventually shut off. Considering there was 2 more, it wasn't to big of a deal, right? Things turned worst as one followed a similar manner, then the last. "No! This can't be happening!" the hybrid said with panic in his voice. Before he knew it, he was faced with darkness and the light of the moon gleamed down on him. He dropped to his knees, curling his golden gloved fingers into the ground, grunting furiously in pain. A shadowy aura of dark purple energy shrouded his entire body. His once short and sky blue fur grew in length and became pitch black in color. His groans of pain first sounded frail and scared, bu quickly became deep, demonic and angry. After a few moments, the merciless Nightmare had been freed after 2 long years. It let out an ear peircing howl and leapt out the window. Its large ebony wings flapped as its dark gray furred muzzle searched for its first meal. Relying on the instint of a predator, the Lycalo made its way to the nearby forest.

Crymson jumped to her feet after hearing the loud howl from the eastern direction. Her spine started to send a omninous sensation downwards. "w-what was that!?" She said, looking around frantically.

Vyne shuddered as he heard another howl. He looked at Crymson with  a worried expression on his face, "Okay, I don't know about you, but those howls are making me nervous." He turned around to see a pair of glowing yellow eyes in his face, "Yeargh!" he shouted as he jumped up in the air. Whan he landed he recognized who it was, "Phantom? What are you doing here?"

The shadow creature turned into a young melanistic serval and shrugged.

Vyne sighed,"Do you know Crymson?" he asked the serval before running to the tree he jumped down from. After a minute he came back carrying a thick bow and a quiver.

Phantom looked at Crymson "I think so..."

Crymson eyed the serval, not knowing who he is. She put one ear down in confusion. "I believe we haven't met, though." She said.

The serval closed his eyes and thought for a second. "Well, I've seen you before, but we were never properly introduced." he said, then opened his eyes.

Crymson shudder as by seeing the serval's yellow eyes, shining from the light like reflectors at night. Crymson started to speak. "Yeah, my apologieze for not introducing myself." She extended a hand for a shake. "My name is Crymson. May I ask for your name?"

Phantom smiled and shook her hand,"My name is Phantom, but I also go by the name Paul."

Speedy ,Reeper and Archer were doing their training in the forest and Archer accidentaly mistook Crymson for Reeper (he was far away and he can only see fully out of one eye) and he shot the arrow

Speedy on the other hand was jumping from tree to tree looking for him

Reeper was a a lake practasing his water bending because the full moon gives his water bending a boost

Crymson's right ear twitched, sensing the arrow coming. But when she was about to take her staff out, she forgot it at her house. Oh, damn it!!! She watched in fear as the arrow comes towards her.

Vyne manipulated the wood in the arrow to make it fall into the ground a few feet from Crymson.

then Speedy glided down and created and air sheild "come out Archer i know your there" Archer then used earthbending to make the ground lift up where Speedy was

Speedy"ha you'll have to do alot better than that Archer"

then he got hit by a water blast from Reeper "never let your guard down Speedy"

Speedies phone bleeped "ok training session over sorry about that Crymson"

In a second, Crymson uppercut kicked him out of rage. Stun looked at the impact Crymson made to Speedy. "Shouldn't let your friends do something stupid out of thin air." Stun sighed

Reeper"bit uncalled for dont you think  if you should be hitting anyone it should be metal head for shooting at you"

Archer"sorry about that thoguht you were Reeper"

Reeper"you thought a gril was me man shes way taller than me do you need glasses?"

Speedy jumped up"c'mon guys lets go" he then thought to himself "phscyo"

Valencia, currently in feral transformation, had been led to the forest by the scent of Mobians. Hiding in the bushes, she stalked the Mobians she had seen. Her eyes were visible through the bush, and a faint snarl could be heard.

Flying above the group was a creature of darkness. Nightmare's pointed teeth and fangs glistened in the moonlight. Its empty red eyes staring each of them down as if it was choosing who to consume fist. There were a multitude of choises and it appeared to be selective about its first meal in 2 years.

Crymson's right ear started to twitch uncontrollably. She knew something bad is lurking somewhere in the forest. ''What's going on?! My ear is twitching like crazy!!'' She thought as she searched around the edge of the open area.

Phantom noticed a shadow on the ground and looked up to see a terrifying figure flying over head. He quickly forced Vyne to look up at it.

Vyne's face was stricken wih terror. He reached into his quiver and pulled out a wooden arrow to fire at the beast.

Crymson got battle ready as she opened her hands for two very bright and intense fireballs formed. Since there is a full moon, her fire powers intensifies ten fold.

Archer heard something "that sounds like.....meh never mind its probably nothing"

Speedy face hurt "ow"

Reeper"you ok?"

Speedy"no im fine"

Archer"Speedy give me your arm"

Speedy"ok"

as soon as Speedy held out his arm and Archer grabbed an arrow and cut his arm and it started bleeding

Speedy"what the heck?!"

Archer"im checking for vampires"

Speedy and Reeper looked at him bewildered

Archer"what those things ran rampid in my time"

he then held up Speedies arm "C'MON UNHOLY CREATURES OF THE NIGHT HERES YOUR DINNER!"

"Let me eat you dry~!!!" An ominous voice came from the shrubs as glowing eyes looked at the hedgehog trio.

Hearing the yell, Valencia leaped out of the bushes, landing in front of Crymson and Vyne. As she looked around, she howled into the sky.

Archer"looks like we have a taker huh werefox? hmm better go for the sliver steak" he then jumped up at the werefox "burn you unholy demon!"

Speedy"wow Archer knows his stuff when it comes to this"

Reeper"yeah"

The sudden smell of blood rushed through Nightmare's keen nostrils. Its nose twitched rapidly and swooped down to confront the morsels. Upon planting its feet on the ground beside Valencia, it took a look at the Vampire Werefox. While Nightmare typically attacked anything within sight, it simply gave a different sort of hostility to the female. Even with its lack of intelligence, it knew she was also a hybrid. It became territorial towards its prey and gave her a fearsome roar, warning her to back away before turning its attention to where the source of blood was smelt.

Crymson eyed the newcomer with fear. "What in the hell is that!?" She stood guard with her bright fireballs intact on her hands. She threw the fireballs to the two.

Speedy saw the vampire his pupils shrank "hi" he then ran as fast as he could

Vyne quickly fired is arrow at Nightmare, hoping to hit the monster in the back.

Phantom sank into Vyne's shadow preparing for an attack.

Valencia snarled at Nightmare; she was there first, so she should get the prey. Sniffing around for a moment, Val noticed where the smell was coming from. She began to walk slowly towards Crymson.

Nightmare didn't seemed too pleased with her persistence. It turned its back on its prey to step in front of her, giving her a deep and intense glare with a low growl. It appeared to have a sort of reluctance to attack her. The arrow suddenly struck his back, which caused it to breifly cry out in pain. It growled in rage and faced the attacker. Letting out another roar, it lunged at Vyne with its clawed hands ready to tear him to shreds. Vyne saw Nightmare charging. He waited until afew yards til impact then jumped about ten feet i the air, while letting two more arrows fly at Nightmare as he passed

the unfortuante thing was Archers aiming was a bit off so instead of hitting the werefox he fell face first into the ground

Archer"hey im an offical green grove warrior perpared to fight your kind leave Crymson alone or i will send you back to your shadow" even though he knew what to do he was trembling

Reeper wasnt sure who to help "well Archers got Crymson to help him" so he then went to help Speedy Phantom appeared from the shadow of a tree with a dagger. He used it tomake two cuts on his arm and stuck his tongue out at the beasts.

Reeper was running to help Speedy but then his rocket skates conkened out and he went flying upwards

Crymson started to slowly step away as the vampire is inching closer to her. ''Oh, great. Now she's going after me. Why???'' She stared at the hungry vampiress in fear.

Valencia, undetectable as a vampire, but obvious as to now a werefox, approached Crymson. She then smelled Phantom's blood, and turned away from the black cat for a brief moment so she could see Phantom, leaving herself potentially open to an attack.

Nightmare swiped at nothing but air, the found one arrow had struck the top of his shoulder and another on his outter left wing. Given his already rock hard skin and those areas having more protection, they simply bounced off and it was unaffected. It instead turned to face the new source of blood coming from Phantom and began heading in that direction.

Phantom slashed at Valencia's nose with the dagger then started running away from everyone else.

few drops of blood dripped from Valencia's nose. Now infuriated, she growled loudly.

Crymson's foot became covered in her bright and intense flames and she twirled herself and used her Pyro Kick to the Werefox while is was open. He fire is more brighter when the impact strucked the Werefox.

Phantom looked back and gave a slight smile: his plan worked. He kept running and dodging trees.

Struck with Crymson's kick, Valencia fell to the ground. She got up and turned back to the cat. Filled with fury, she charged straight towards Crymson.

As the Werefox came closer to her, Crymson balled up her fist onto one. "HRAAAH!!!" She jumped in the air towards her. As she came down, the impact from her balled fists slammed the werefox's head down to the ground. She landed behind her.

Vyne saw Nightmare run off after Phantom, then turned his attention to Crymson and Valencia. He started running to their location to help Crymson.

Valencia's head hit the ground with a large THUD!!! Staggering back to her feet, the werefox was disoriented. She went into a frenzy and tried running towards Crymson, but misjudged the direction she was heading for and ran straight into a tree, cracking the trunk.

Vyne quickly covered the distance and jumped into the air, yelling "Root Tangle!", he landed,slamming his fist into the ground and causing the roots of the trees to ensnare Valencia.

Valencia struggled to try and escape the roots, but they were too thick and she couldn't reach them with her claws to tear them away. She yowled and struggled harder. The werefox had to make use of her time; full moons only come around once a month, and when the sun rises, she'd transform back to normal.

Crymson walked over to Vyne. "Heh, you sure know how to keep her tightly......whoever she is." She smiled. But somehow, she feels a little sorry for the werefox being tied up.

Something unpredictable happened within Nightmare. Watching Valencia be harmed like she did brought out an unseen side of it. With breakneck speeds, it dashed towards the hybrid and stood in front of her almost appearing as an act of protection. Nightmare glared deeply at the attackers, giving them a series of roars as if it was attempting to ask them to leave

Vyne jumped up into a tree and aimed his bow at Nightmare.

Crymson's eyes grew wide. She went in front of the creature to sheild them. "STOP!!!" She yelled to Vyne.

Vyne stared in awe at Crymson,"Fine, just get away from that thing!" he yelled as he lowered his bow.

Crymson turned to look at the creature, with his sharp teeth and fangs and crimson red eyes peering down at her. She gulped in fear again, and too petrified to move.

Phantom came running back, he dove and pushed Crymson out of the way and landed on his back, "Oof!"

Valencia kept struggling to try and get out of the branches, but she was losing energy. She howled at the moon and tried the only thing she could; she began to bite at the roots with her razor sharp teeth.

Nightmare stared down at Crymson. She could be finished off here and now, but it appeared as if Nightmare wasn't entirely in control. Past the fangs, claws and shaggy fur was Twilight and he was witnessing everything that had happened. He knew exactly what Valencia was; she was quite similar to him and he had a feeling of understandment. Seeing her in harm's way allowed him to control the beast in protecting her. With one last snarl at the cat, Nightmare turned his back to her. Using his powerful claws, he cut away at the fellow hybrid's bonds and freed her within seconds.

Crymson looked at the creature in front of her and smiled. "Thanks for freeing her." She patted his shoulder before being pushed by Phantom.

Valencia got to her feet and spit out the roots she had been chewing at. She then let out an odd sounding growl as if she were trying to thank Nightmare for freeing her.

Phantom got back to his feetand yelled at everyone,"GO, EVERYONE!!! I'VE GOT THIS!!!" He then shifted into  a spectre and got right in Nightmare's face, then said with a creepy ghostly voice, "Go-o no-O-ow and I won't hu-U-rt yo-U."

"STOP!! I said sto-" As Crymson was about to finish, she started to smell a sweet smell coming from the air. The whole open area turned foggy, with some blue mist all around them. Crymson kept on smelling the scent, noticing a scent of roses. But she was confused on how the fog came to be. But after a minute, her heart made a large and loud THUMP!. "GAH!!!" She knelt down in pain.

Nightmare stared undeterred at Phantom and simply snapped at him with a breif huff. It continued to stand in front of Valencia, appearing to no longer care about its hunger, but rather striving to protect her from whatever was happening to Crymson. Of course as such, its body began to shutdown at a rapid level but it still remained strong.

Vyne looked around at the fog, then held a leaf to his mouth: trying not to breathe in the mist.

Valencia paused and sniffed the air, noticing the smell of roses. She had a confused look on her face for a moment as she saw the mist and Crymson in pain. Whatever the mist is, it doesn't seem to be affecting the werefox.

Crymson clutched her head with her hands as she started to falter. She dorpped to her knee and let out a painful cry. "GYAAAAAAAAAAAAHH!!!" In seconds, her feline fangs grew a few more centimeters, her hair changed from crimson to cyan, and as she opened her eyes wide, her irisis turn to a silver blue like the moon. Apparently, Crymson herself has grown into a dramatic change. "Ahh, ahh. what's happening....to me? I smell...." She sniffed something sweet, which made her mouth water.

Valencia was even more confused when she saw Crymson's drastic change in appearance. By now the werefox knew that something was wrong, and she also knew that the morning would be arriving sometime soon. She took a few steps towards Crymson, but was being cautious.

Vyne realized he too had breathed the fog. He braced himself for whatever was going to happen, but after a few seconds he figured nothing was going to happen. He looked down at Crymson, and his fur stood on end. "Crymson are you okay?!?"

"Don't come any closer. Whatever I changed into I don't want-" She started to smell the sweet smell again. She eyed Vyne with her silver blue eyes locked on to him. She pounced to his arm as she grabbed a hold of it and try to bite it. But after a few seconds, Crymson pushed away.

Vyne was too stunned to react. After a few seconds he broke out of his trance and tree-hopped away terrified.

"Wait, Vyne!!! I don't meant to...." Crymson yelled, but was too late when Vyne took off. She looked at her hands, seeing claws on her fingers. "What have I turned into!?" She said in shock.

Valencia started to get her mind back. She knew that the sun would rise soon, and she would become herself again. She stared at Crymson, and a small memory of herself flashed in her mind. Once she transforms back, she would be able to tell what happened to Crymson, as Valencia herself has a similar curse.

Crymson turned to the Werefox. "Who are you? And why have you attacked me?" Crymson showed an upset expression on her face.

The sun had started to come up. The tiny bit that was visible over the horizon was all that was need for Valencia to transform. Her body shrunk down to normal size, as did her claws and teeth, while her vampiric fangs were larger than the rest of her teeth. Her fur turned from silver to white-and-black, and her frost blue hair was back to normal. Messy, but normal. With her transformation back to herself complete, she collapsed on the ground and looked up at the black cat. "C- Crymson? Is that you?" She asked with a weak voice.

Crymson's eyes grew wide as she recognizes the werefox's original forme. "Valencia?!" She started to help her up, but as she came to the sun's rays, it burned her fur and skined. "YEOWWW!!!" She stepped back into the shadows and looked at her burned. She has relized that she, herself, has turned into a vampire. She stood in astonishment, but in stymie.

Phantom just flew to Crymson, "What did you do to Vyne?!?" his eyes glowed brightly.

"I didn't!! I was about to sink my teeth into his arm, but I somehow resisted it. He fled away in fear." Crymson answered to Phantom.

"So it is you, Crym." Valencia said, still weak from her transformation. "How much damage did I cause? And can you help me up? I'm pretty weak right now."

Nightmare's lack of feeding reached critical levels. It dropped to the ground with a listless groan. Its glowing eyes gradually closed and it fell to the ground lifeless. Once the Sun's energy began to envelop him however, a blinding white aura enveloped his body. Those who could see him would see his size begin to decrease greatly. The shaggy black fur became short and sky blue in color and his fangs and claws vanished. Within moments, Twilight was seen. He let out a couple groans before slowly getting to his feet. His golden gloved hands were pressed against his hands. "Ugh... is it... is it over?" he asked faintly.

Crymson looked at the cyan colored Lycalo. "Aparently so." She turned to Valencia. "You did no harm, you even tried to go after me. I would like to help you, but I seem to be in a pickle right now. For some reason my fur and skin started to burn up when I went into the sunlight. But what made me turn into a vampire!?" Crymson asked.

Valencia stumbled to her feet and looked closely at Crymson. "Well I guess the secret that I'm a were-Mobian is out... And it seems that now you have my other curse." She thinks for a moment. "One of the only things I can remember from my transformation is a fog and the smell of roses, and how it didn't seem to affect me."

"Don't worry, your secret stays with me." Crymson nodded, and looked back at her hand. "Even though you're not affected by the rose smelling fog, but why am I affected?"

Phantom turned back into regular form, but still keeping an eye on Crymson. He then looked at Valencia and Twilight wih a perplexed lookon his face.

Twilight stretched and shook his body out, getting used to his smaller body's frame. He turned around to look at Valencia. A smile spread across his white furred muzzle as he was happy she was okay. Not to mention he was glad to see her true self. "Your secret's safe with me too." he told her with much assurement He then turned back to Crymson "That strange fog didn't affect me either. I only saw it for a brief moment before my senses stopped working." the Lycalo stated.

"I know why it didn't affect me; I'm already a vampire." Valencia said. "I usually never say anything about my curses, because you never know when a monster hunter is gonna overhear you and display your head as a wall decoration."

"If that's the case." Twilight said stroking his chin. "Then that'd explain why I'm unaffected too." he went on with a couple nods.

Phantom gulps at the thought. "I know someone like that... but I won't tell."

Phantom leaned against a tree, "But I wasn't a vampire, and wasn't affected..."

Valencia seemed to have regained most of her energy. "What I'm baffled about is where did the fog come from, and why and how it turned Crym into a vampire." She turned to her feline friend. "Your hair and eyes changed color, along with your fangs getting bigger. When I was turned, the only change I had aside from my fangs was my eyes turning violet. Normally vampires have red eyes, but your vampirism can't be normal if it was caused by a fog."

Twilight extended his azure bat wings, kicking up a light draft. He was more than happy to be back to his normal self. "Another question is why those two aren't afftacted." the wolfbat pointed out, aiming a thumb at Phantom and Vyne. "Is it me, or is it just a coinsidence they're guys." he continued, returning his leathery protrusions to their normal position. "Either way, we've gotta find out how to reverse this. Chances are there'll be more people affected by the fog." he finished with another couple nods.

"Maybe. But I don't know why I'm the one being affected. I even tried to take blood from Vyne, but I somehow reacted and resisted it. What do this mean?" Crymson wondered. She took a lock of her hair and examine it for a few moments, gazing at the new color besides her usual crimson color. She even used her tounge to feel how large her teeth have grown.

"You should be able to get used to your fangs faster than I got used to mine. Being bitten by a vampire isn't fun, trust me." Valencia was deep in thought. "You've developed a taste for blood." She sighed. "Vampirism sucks, but you get used to it... mostly. As for your hair, I have no idea. I've always had blue hair."

Phantom starts thinking, "Or maybe I didn't change because I already can be a different type of monster."

"Heh, it's odd that I wish to become a Vampire. And I did, but of course it has some disadvantages." Then, Crymson remembered that she have to meet up with someone at noon, ans Crymson in her new form is making her nervous. "Great, I can't go out like this and people thinkibg I'm the twin sister of myself." She groaned.

"Well, you do look pretty different to me. But inside, you are still the same ole Crym." Stun said, flying near Crymson with a smile.

A faint sound of a lyre being played can be heard, which is slowly growing louder. Phantom's ears perked up, "Do you hear that?"

Twilight watched the two with curiosity. He had never had to suffer with his curse under his normal form. His Vampirism only came out under the moon in a Werewolf type fashion. But having the abilities and bloodlust of a Vampire combined with a Werewolf's mindless ruthlessness proved to be problematic on its own. He sighed solemnly for them. He found himself lost in a trance but was snapped out of it when his large bat ears perked up at a distant noise. His golden eyes scanned the vicinity in attempts to discover what it was.

Crymson's ears perked up from the soft, melodious tune. She closed her eyes as she heared the music coming from the eight o'clock directoon. She turned to that direction and let out a growl. "Show yourself!!!" Her eyes started to glow like the moon.

Valencia's large ears also picked up the sound of the tune. ''Whoever, or whatever, it is, maybe it could make a nice snack. I haven't drank blood in a while. ''She thought as she turned and faced that direction.

A small black fox wearing a red vest is calmly walking through the forest. He is plucking the strings of his lyre as he approaches the group of people. The tune he is playing is also accompanied by a calming song in a foreign language.

Crymson eyed the fox in disgust. "Pfft, he sure is not a tasty treat." Just then, she realized it wasn't her usual self to say anything like that. Above all, Crymson was never the way she is acting right now. She covered her mouth with both her hands. Damn it, why would I say that out of the blue!? She yelled in her head.

"He's too small to be a good snack." Valencia said. Then she realized what Crym had just said, and how normally she would never say something like that. "There has to be some reason for this." ''Now who's that fox over there? ''She thought. He might not make a tasty snack, but I still need a snack.

Phantom shot them confused glances. Just to be safe: he turned back into a spectre. He listened for a few more seconds,"I'd know that lyre anywhere: that's Bladelocke!"

Speedy saw Reeper flying upwards so he used air to bring him down softly and they then went to help Archer

Archer had his silver steak and some garlic "bring it on demon"

Speedy and Reeper jumped in in their battle stances even though they didnt realise they wouldnt be able to fight vampires like that

Somewhere else,Close to the group, Infact within vision a small red fox was trudging through the forest, He was obviously scared of the dark and seemed somewhat worried if something was going to jump out at him, He looked like he was trying to find something "I can't believe I lost it..." He sighed "I hate the dark... Why couldn't jad just wait until morning..."

Speedy"i thought vampires didnt exsist"

Bladelocke kept walking in a straight path, playing his music, going right between Speedy and the other two hedgehogs without even noticing them.

Speedy"is then fight even going on?" his ears dropped "im confused"

Crymson took a look at the black fox, taking a flashback back to the Bah Humbug incident with him as her ally. "Bladelocke!! Hey, it's nice to see you here." Crymson, still under the shadows from the trees, smiled.

Flame jumped out the tree and saw Crymson, He slowly walked over nervously, He was obviously scared of the Dark, He was hoping she'd say 'Hello' First, because for whatever reason the dark made him feel less talkative.

Bladelocke looked up and saw two familiar faces, but one of them was different. "Phantom and...is that you Crymson?" he asked confused at Crymson's appearance.

"Yup; that's Crymson." Valencia said to Bladelocke. "Although right now she's a bit more Cyan."

Crymson couldn't help but laugh at Valencia's comment, which intentionally is true. She looks more like a Cyan than a Crymson.

Bladelocke smiled and looked at Valencia, "And you are? I don't think we've met."

"My name is Valencia." The white-and-black fox said to Bladelocke. "And you are?"

Bladelocke took a slight bow, "My name is Bladelocke Cutter. And who is he?" he gestures to Twilight.

Flame stepped out the Tree and Turned visable, He sensed a few auras near him, One seemed simmilar to Crymson but was slighly different, He could also Sense Bladelocke and a Stranger, He seemed Perplexed by the aura like Crymson's upon seeing where to aura is from he saw a slight off-coloured Cat, He walked over to investigate "Crymson? Is that you, or is does my vision mistake me?"

Crymson eyed her long time buddy, Flame, with a smile. She couldn't help but to joke around with him. "No, I'm her twin sister, Cyan." She laughed hysterically from her joke.

Flame sighed "Oh haha, Very funny, Judging by the Laugh I'd say that you are the same person, Also I can imply that from the stale humour, Anywho, Why are you Off-Coloured? Did the paint store run out of Red?" He sniggered a bit at his joke "I'd like a scientific explanation if Pawsible, As I need it to creating a Plawsible Mechanism so its not just a fang with no explanation."

"It's kind of hard to explain..." Valencia said. "I myself am not exactly sure how, but some weird fog came and turned her. And I like your fox puns."

Flame nods "Oh...Okay, I-I don't believe we've met, My name is Flame..." He smiles "And Finally someone appriciates my Fox Puns."

Bladelocke looked at Flame. The fox clearly confused him.

"And my name is Valencia." She said to Flame. "Now I have a little bitty question for you: Do you happen to have a parasol with you? It's kind of urgent."

Flame thinks for a second "Not on hand, Hold on a second..." His hand glows as a Umbrella slowly forms in his hand "Here." He gives it to her. He looks at Bladelocke "Why do I confuse you?" He stops for a second "Oh, I can sense emotions..."

Bladelock was getting even more confused, "That's why..."

Flame hadn't detected Phantom's aura:not that he could, because as a spectre he gave none off.

Valencia turned to face Crymson. She held out the umbrella to the cyan-haired cat. "Here, Crym. you're gonna need this." F''irst things first: Where in the hell did that fog come from?! ''She thought to herself.

Flame looks a bit confused "What are you talking about?" He sighs "I don't want to use mind reading to work this out." He looks at crymson "If you need an Umbrella are you like a vampire or something?" He laughs to himself, he obviously wasn't serious.

"Apparently. Some strange blue fog that smelled like roses happened to change me into a vampire. But how and why?" Crymson took the umbrella from Valencia, opened it to shield the sun rays away from her.

Speedy"Crymson whats going on?"

"Oh, Speedy. How was that kick of mine when you seem to make me your brother's target!!!" She yelled at Speedy as her eyes started to glow.

Speedy"ok 1 Archer isnt my brother 2 he thought you were Reeper and i was miles away so i had nothing to do with him shooting at you"

Bladelocke thought show time, he started playing a song on his lyre. The song he was playing was a song of calming: a song that is used to calm both people and beasts alike.

Flame nodded, he seemed to like the song, Flame was obviously a 'Music Appriciator' "Good thinking, Music is always a suitable fix for something."

"You still shouldn't be shooting arrows at people." Valencia said to Speedy. "Crym, try to calm down. You may have to check if you're still alive. I'm not 100% sure on 'Creatures of the Night,' but from the studies I've done, almost all of them are undead." She had a concerned look on her face.

Crymson mellowed down when she heard Bladelocke playing his lyre. Her eyes stopped glowing. "Whew, thanks, Blood. I was about to make Speedy my appetizer." She snickered.

Flame looked confused "I don't get it..." He thinks for a second and looks suprised "Wait...Was I correct when I said 'Vampire'? If so thats kinda...Creepy..."

"Yup, you were right. There are a couple vampires here, and Crymson is one of them. The other one is a secret." Valencia said to Flame. She turned to Crymson. "If you were serious about what you just said, you must need to feed."

"Yeah, but..." She hesitated for a second. "What do I need to eat? I can't even take blood from my friends. Nor even Static." She looked down with a sad, worried look, remembering if she would walk up to Static in her current form, Static would be frieghtened of her.

"I'm not sure if you can still eat normal food. That wasn't really a part of my brief vampire studies." Valencia said. She began to whisper to Crymson. "What I do sometimes is drink the blood from raw steaks and other kinds of meat."

Crymson had to shiver at that one.

Bladelocke finished his song and looked at Crymson, "Hmm, I know someone who might be able to help you... You know Katherine right?"

Crymson nodded. "Yes, I do know her. Why?" She asked Bloodlocke.

"She's a Bloodson: from waht I know of her father, Richard, He can cure such things. Maybe she can too..."Bladelocke speculated.

Phantom disappeared into ashadow to go tell Katherine.

"A cure for vampirism?" Valencia's eyes widened and glowed very mildly. "Is that even possible?"

Crymson was even as surprised as Valencia. Her ears went down and her eyes grew wide as her irisis glow too.

Bladelocke thought for a second, "Richard has cured zombification and pertification, but I'm not sure about vampirism, but it's possible..."

"Are you sure about this? What if it doesn't work?" Crymson asked, confused

Twilight watched the interaction between the group. He had suddenly become quiet but had listened to every word. He pondered if that alleged cure would rid him of Nightmare and set him free from is evil clutches..

"I hope it works." Valencia said, with a slightly sad tone in her voice. "Vampirism is a serious curse. It's not a fun thing."

"If it doesn't work... then it just doesn't work and nothing changes." Bladelocke said.

Crymson growled again as her ears went further down and her eyes furrowed, irisis glowing again in irritation. "Well, that's a let down."

Bladelocke started to get nervous,"Atleast that's what I think will happen... I've never seen Richard fail before. I'm not so sure about his daughter though."

Valencia looked at Crymson and let out a quiet snarl. From her paranoid nature, she knew Crymson might do something she would regret. Her vampirism was changing the usually friendly cat. Valencia would have to keep an eye on her.

"So what are we standing over here for? Let's go see Katherine before I get too impatient!!" Crymson growled underneath her breath. She realized that she was never this patient before. She's becoming something different than her usual self.

Valencia began to walk forward a little, but her legs wobbled and she lost her balance, almost falling. "Crap!" She yelled as she caught herself. "Full moons... drain my energy. I need to eat something soon."

"You're telling me, I'm starving. I'm so hungrey, I can eat a five pound steak with A-1 steak sauce smothered all over it!!" Crymson's mouth started to water.

Bladelocke stepped back, gripping his instrument, ready to play the song again if anything happened. Valencia's mouth also started to water. "Delicious." She said as she imagined the steak. She then looked around at the group of people. "Do any of you have anybody... Er, I mean, anything we could eat?"

Bladelocke nodded his head, "I have some beef jerky, but--" He cringed as they looked at him. Quickly he rummaged through his satchel and pulled the bag out. "Catch" he half-screamed as he threw it to them.

Valencia caught the bag of beef jerky. She took out a couple pieces and quickly ate them. "Sorry about that; I'm not really myself when I'm hungry." She smiled a little out of embarrassment, which made her fangs visible. She then handed the bag of jerky over to Crymson. A fox walks in. "Um, hi. "

Valencia turned to see the new fox. ''Where in the hell did that fox come from?! ''She thought to herself. With everything that had just happened withing the past few moments and her still great need to feed, Valencia was in no mood for a friendly meet-and-greet. She had to keep watch of Crymson. She let out a low snarl and her eyes glowed faintly.

"Uh-uh- are you ok? I'm sorry if I intruded on anything..." the fox apologized quietly.

"I think the question is Are you okay." Valencia said, still snarling. "Do you smell roses?" ''If that fog turns ladies into vampires, than this fox is gonna turn as well. I'm still hungry, and I still thirst, but Crymson needs the jerky more than I do. There's something seriously messed up going on. ''The white-and-black fox thought as she tried to clear her mind to think.

"I'm fine. What's with all of this fog? I think something is wrong with it. I'm Luinda, but you can call me Luce." Luce's eyes went wide. "There is something wrong with this fog. Do you smell roses?"

Crymson took the beef jerky from Valencia's hand quickly amd chomped it down quickly. After her little 'snack', her stomach still growled. Her eyes startedbto glow again. "I'm still hungry......." She looked at the newcomer with hunger. "Are you my meal?" Crymson growled. Gah!!! She thought, noticing that her vampiric instincts are taking over her usual prrsonality.

Flame looks at her suprised "Crymson...Are you...Okay?" He seemed a bit scared "I think this fog has changed you..."

Twilight had taken to the skies and floated above the group. Having two hungry females around made him nervous. He wasn't sure if they'd feed on a fellow Vampire, but he couldn't be too sure. He feared the worst for the newcomer, but was happy to see things went okay aside from Crymson's comment. The Lycalo simply kept some diistant just in case things made a turn for the worst.

Bladelocke saw how Crymson started to get mad again and started playing the same song he played before to calm her down.

Luce's eyes glittered in fear. "What's going on?" Luce asked, while her body trembled.

Crymson shook her head as she enapped out of her vampiric trance. Her eyes stopped glowing. "Ugh, my apologiese. I've just tirned into a vampite hours ago, so I may br a little frightening. But please, I'm actually a nice person. And let me introduce myself." Crymson extends a hand to shake. "My name is Crymson. I hope we get to know each other eventually."

"And I'm Stun, Crymson's Chao. And sorry about my absence, I was out pickiny berries." Stun said with a smile, holding a leaf full of blueberries.

Phantom is running back towards the group, follwing him is a teenaged arctic wolf.

Luce shakes Crymson's hand firmly. "I'm Luce. Me too. It's alright, I ge scared easily. It's nice to meet you." Luce smiled.

Crymson smiled. Even though she smelled Luce's blood from their close distance, she still maintain control of her new vampire self. She stepped back a few feet so she won't go after her. "So, what now?"

Phantom and the wolf reack the others and the wolf takes a deep breath.

Luce shrugged. "We'll have to wait and see.

The wolf catches her breath, "Ok Phantom, what was so important that you had to..." her voice trailed off as she saw Crymson.

Out of the trees, two figures entered. The first was a dingo of some sort. He was wearing a black jacket over a gray shirt with some sort of dragon on it. In addition, he was wearing a black, studded belt, black jeans, a pair of black and gray boots. He was also wearing short, dark gray gloves. The hood of his jacket was pulled up over his head, covering most of his dark brown hair. His eyes were an amber color.

The other figure looked remarkably similar to the first, but with a few differences. First, her eyes were glowing entirely yellow. Second, none of her facial features could be seen. And third, she appeared jet black all over, with the exception of her eyes.

The dingo eyed the group and saw a few people he recognized. "Valencia, Flame, and Crymson. Unexpected to see you here." He said. He then looked at Crymson for several seconds. "You've changed." He said after a period of silence. His partner remained silent.

Luce eyed the dingo for a short second, in his amber eyes.Luce had never met him before.

The dingo noticed Luce's stare. "Oh, I guess I should introduce us." He said. "I am merely a traveler. My quiet companion here is my constant companion." The darkish, female creature said nothing, but instead gave a short nod. As she did, a single strand of light gray hair covered one of her eyes. She quickly brushed it back under her hood.

"I'm Lucinda, but you can call me Luce."

Phantom smirked at the wolf, "Now do you see Katherine?"

"Who's Katherine?" Luce asked.

The wolf stood up, "I am."

"Oh. My apologies," Luce said.

The dingo looked on for a few moments before looking back at Crymson. "Don't tell me: you've been turned into a vampire." he said, fairly certain of Crymson's unfortunate perdiciment.

"I think she may have been," Luce said, "But I'm not sure how."

Speedy"we're back at the begining i wasnt the one who shot th arrow"

"Then who did?" Luce asked.

Archer"i did"

"Why?" Luce asked.

Archer"we were doing forest training and i thought crymson was Reeper"

Flame thinks "Wait, Why were you trying to shoot Reeper?"

Archer"wartraining we go against eachother to train"

meanwhile in a cemetry

Zoom,Death and Tom were walking around the cemetry

Tom"why areb we here?"

Death"good question"

Zoom"if my calculations are correct i can make all the dead bodies here either an army of zombies or an army of vampires that will fully obey me but i hope its the vampires"

Zoom held the death cube over the cemtary and a light emited from it"

What appeared to be a skeleton popped up from behind a gravestone. It walked slowly at first, then grabbed two bone blades fro its back and charged at the hedgehogs.

Zoom"uh oh"

The figure wasn't actually  a skeleton, but someone dressed head to foot in bone armor. The figure was creepy and frightening, but what increased those factors was it made no sound at all as it charged. It charged straight at Zoom and jumped over his head, before running off into the woods.

Twilight had left momentarily for a brief flight. It had become such a routine for the Lycalo that even a short one satisfied him. There was nothing he loved more than being free in the morning sky. He returned after tracking the familiar scents to see a couple new people had joined the others. Was this forest some sort of gathering point or something? Regardless, he swooped down and planted his feet on the ground.

"Hey." he said with a firendly smile to the duo. "The name's Twilight. What brings you to the forest?" he asked with a slight turn of his head.

Katherine looks at Twilight, "He," motions to Phantom, "Brought me here to help Crymson."

Valencia looked at Katherine and her eyes stopped glowing. "Okay good. The sooner we can get this straightened out, the better." ''I wonder how long this is gonna take. ''She thought. I'd also like to have my vampirism cured.

Flame looks confused "I did not know there was a cure for Vampirism..." He looks at Valencia "Sorry! Reading thoughts again" He laughs to himself "Anywho, Is it not getting early" He looks at his watch "Its 4am and Sunrise is in roughly 30 minutes."

"Well, let's get this done quickly before the sun rises!!" Crymson said. Right now, Crymson is starting to get very impatient, which seems her vampiric side is taking over her usual self. She want to hurry up and get rid of the vampirism and return to her normal self.

Flame sighs "Well...How long would that take? I wouldn't want you ending up biting me, After all if I go home and Jad sees me he'll go crazy he has a phobia of Bats." He laughs to himself "Even so, I doubt it would take 30 minutes We should probably get to shade or something of the like."

"I don't think that every vampire can turn into a bat. It may just be the human kind that do." Valencia said.

Flame laughs "Thats one sterotype down, Hold on...I smelled something like roses...How come I'm not a vampire, Is it because of gender?" He thinks for a second "Do only females get turned into vampires?"

"I don't know." Crymson spoke. "I was the only on that turned. Valencia was not affected and so did Luce. Maybe I'm the only one that was. But we are not quite for sure yet."

Flame sighs "Hmm well...What do you do when you need to drink plasma..." He suddenly looks like he has an idea "Hey, Why don't we go see Robin, She might be able to help."

"Well, vampires have holes in their fangs; this much I know. As for how they actually drink blood, I'm completely lost on the topic." Valencia scratched her chin. "And Robin may be able to help." She agrees with Flame.

"I know how they drink blood," The dingo said, "But I'll tell you later."

Crymson's ears perked up in glee. "Yeah, maybe Robin knows how to get rid of this monstrosity. No offence Valencia and Twilight." She apologizes to the Werefox and the Lycalo.

Twilight was watching the conversation. There wasn;t much he can contribute, so staying silent was preffered. Not to mention he was already feeling shy around them considering his night form had already been seen. His ears drooped slightly at Crymson's comment, but he completely understood. He was a monster inside and he has long learned to accept that. "None taken." he said, attempting to hide the way he felt. He knew this was a delicate matter, especially with Crymson being new at the whole Vampire thing.

Katherine looked at Crymson, "Hold on a second, I can try to cure you now."

Flame looks at his watch "We'd better hurry, Sunlight is in roughly 20 minutes." He laughs "Its cool my watch can Calculate that."

Crymson's glowing eyes glared at Flame. "Enough with the puns and let's just get going!! We're wasting night time here." Her voice sounded serious. ''Grr, here I go again. Another one of my 'not-usual-self' attitudes.'' She thought with her ears down.

Archer"wait i think i know a cure well my peoples doctors said it was a cure for vamperism but anyway we need some vamp berries"

Speedy"you sure mate"

"This is a serious matter." Valencia said with a stern voice. "I think we'd all agree that joking about fake berries isn't a good thing to do at a time like this."

Flame shrinked back at Crymson's Serious tone "Errm...Okay..." ''Man she is scary like this, We need to find the cure soon... ''He thought to himself

Archer"im sorry i dont think im joking my elders who i can be sure are alot smarter than you say they work so im going back to my old village in green grove and getting some"

Speedy"yeah"he then whispered"he's fromm another time so he doesent get modern socializing"

Katherine nodded her head "here goes" as she focused as she prepared the cure. Soon both she and Crymson were covered in bright red auras. After about fifteen seconds Crymson's arua exploded knocking everyone back. Crymson should have been temporarily cured: atleast until nighttime.

Archer"we have until nightfall to get to green grove "

Speedy"but thats miles away"

Reeper"and we cant just go we need to hav supplies like blood for the vamps traveling with us"

"Wah!!!!" Stun was also knocked down from the explosion. He opened his eyes, surprised to see Crymson back to hersefl again. "Crymson, you're back!!" He flew to her and hugged her.

"Heh, I guess I am." Crymson said after catching Stun. She looked at her hands and saw no claws. She took some hair to see her original hair color, and felt her fangs back to its normal size. "HAHA!!!! YOU DID IT KAT!!!" She ran up to Katherine and hugged her tightly.

"You're cured!!!" Valencia yelled as she saw Crymson back to normal. "Do you think you could cure me too?" She asked Katherine.

Twilight had wrapped his wings around his body, protecting him from most of the blast. He returned them to their original position and looked at Val upon her question. He was hoping she'd be able to, as that means Nightmare would be gone forever.

Archer"you do know its not a pernement cure"

Speedy"you know what how about us three just go to green grove it will be alot quicker and we willv get the permenent cure for Crymson and all vampires who want to go human"

Katherine didn't respond because she too had been knocked back by the blow. She had flown into the trunk of a tree and hit her head: rendering her unconcious and bleeding.

Flame looks at Katherine suprised "Are you okay?!" He runs over and Casts a healing spell, Slowly healing her wounds. Katherine's wounds healed, but she remained unconcious, the cure had obviously taken a lot out of her.

Speedy"ok then were off to get some vamp berries if you need anything just call me on my mobile"

and the three walked off

Zoom"what do we do?"

Tom"i dont know"

Death"go terrorize station square"

Zoom"no wait i have something fun to do METAL!!"

Metal Speedy came down infront of them

Zoom"metal what do you think we should do?"

Metal Speedy"i sense mobians with the vampirism syndrome"

Zoom"really we should go check that out"

"I have no idea what they were talking about. Vamp berries aren't real. It's also pretty disrespectul to not use the full word 'vampire' when talking about something that can stop your heart with a bite to the neck." Valencia muttered to herself under her breath.

"Couldn't agree more, Val." The dingo, who's name was also Twilight, said. However, Valencia seemed unaware of his comment.

Bladelocke ran up to Katherine to try and help.

Crymson happened to agree with Valencia. "Yeah, tell me about it." Crymson crossed her arms.

Katherine started to wake up, "Uuuh, My head..."

Crymson ran over to Katherine. "Hey, are you alright?"

Katherine shook her head, "No." She grabbed the back of her head and grimaced from the pain.

Crymson sighed. "That blast sure did a lot of impact on you. You better take it easy for a while."

Katherine pulled her hands back in front of her and looked at the blood, then at Valencia,"You...You were asking something...Be...before I blacked out?"

"Um... yeah." Valencia said to Katherine. She sounded concerned that she had gotten hurt. "Can you possible cure my vampirism too?"

Katherine weakly pushed  herself  into a sitting position against the tree, "I Mi...I might be...be able too. How long hav...have you had i...it?

''It matters how long I've had it? ''Valencia thought to herself. Her facial expression started to look sad, and her eyes glowed faintly. "I was bitten when I was five, so that would be twelve years." She replied.

Katherine also frowned, "My abilities al...allow me to cure things based...on how long people...have been affected. Twelve...years is way too...too long for me to...to cure. But I...I know someone who...who might be able to help you."

Valencia stared in disappointment until she heard Katherine's last comment. "Really?" Her eyes widened. "Who?"

Katherine was barely to makeout those words; she was blacking out. She managed to muster enough sthrength to whisper "Austin..." before she passed out.

Valencia looked at Katherine. ''Poor girl blacked out. ''The werefox thought. ''Now who's this 'Austin' who may be able to cure me? Maybe Crymson knows.''

Crymson ears went down as Katherine blacked out. She is also confused on who this 'Austin' is. "Austin? Who is he?"

Bladelocke looked down at Katherine, "She mentioned Austin... the herbalist..."

Twilight's ears lowered upon hearing it matters how long the curse is within someone. 12 years was too long, but what about only 2? Either way, whoever this Austin was seemed to have the ability to help him.

"But what could an herbalist do about vampirism?" Valencia sounded confused. I'm not sure if supernatural problems can have herbal solutions, but this Austin guy may be worth talking to.

Bladelocke shifted his gaze to Valencia, "Herbalist is his title.He also makes elixers and the like."

"But where will we find him?" Luce asked.

"Does this herbalist happen to cure the Werewolf curse as well?" Twilight asked.

"Now that I would LOVE to know." Valencia said, eager to hear the answer.

Twilight shot an interested glance at Valencia. His other side guessed her hybridization perfectly. It fasinated him knowing there was another hybrid like himself. He didn't feel so isolated from the world with another Were/Vampire hybrid. A smile briefly spread across his white furred muzzle at the very thought.

"And does this herbalist know how to cure their curses? What if there IS no cure?" Crymson asked, become more perplexed.

Bladelocke looked at the ground, "It depends on what you mean by 'curse'. If you mean a condition: then yes he probably can. If you mean a litteral curse, then no, he can't."

"Well I was bitten by a werewolf back twelve years ago. So that's ''my curse." ''The werefox said to Bladelocke. "I'm not sure about his." She gestured to Twilight.

Luce listened carefully to the conversatilon. "How did you get your curse?" Luce asked Twilight.

[Pop: Please press the Enter button to make a line between other people's edits and yours. -Kira]

"Mine I was born with and it's only been unleashed for 2 years, then dormant within me for another year. I'm a Lycalo, pretty much half wolf and half bat. My people have this curse that shows up every few generations. I'm the unlucky soul this time around." he explained.

"So your curse is genetic, basically. I was unfortunate enough to get bitten by both a vampire and a werewolf... on the same day." Valencia said with a sad expression on her face.

"Yeah." Twilight said with a nod. His ears then lowered as he felt remorseful for the fellow hybrid. She seemed like such a nice person from what he can see and for such horrendous things to happen to her was unsettling. He was just hoping there'd be a cure for the both of them. "It's unfortanate to hear that...'" he told the Werefox.

"I'm sorry," Luce said sadly,"we're going to try as hard as we can to get you guys cured." Luce nodded at Twilight and Valencia.

"I find your eavesdropping on our conversation here to be pretty creepy, and might I say stalker-ish." Valencia said, obviously getting creeped out by Lucinda's persistence. "But anyway, if there's even a chance of getting cured, it's definitely worth a try!" She said enthusiatically.

Phantom saw  how excited Val was getting, "I'll go try to find Austin right now!" he said before turning intoa spectre again.

Bladelocke watched Phantom, "Try the city; I hear he has a lab there."

Phantom heard the advice and melted into a shadow and dissapeared.

"Where else should we look?" Luce asked.

Valencia yawned and stretched her arms. She was tired from staying up all night. "Well, if we're gonna wait for him to get back, I might as well curl up for a nap. Wake me up if you need me for something." She walked a few meters over and lied down on the forest floor. She started napping.

The dingo cleared his throat, drawing everyone's attention. "Now that you've all had time to discuss your next plan of action," he began, "Perhaps we should get going now. After all, the sun will come up in about 3 minutes." He then looks at Crymson. "I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but your friend's "cure" will only last until sunset. However, at least you can walk in the sun without getting fried."

Bladelocke looked at the dingo, "And where exactly are we going?"

Twilight's ears perked up at the sound of somebody clearing their throat. With how many people have gathered here, it was hard to keep track of people. Plus he was focused on the conversation he was having with Valencia until she went to take a nap. "Aren't we waiting for whoever just left, or will he be able to find us later on?" the cyan Lycalo asked. Then again, if there was threat of a massive Vampire infection, he'd rather not wait around for others. He wanted to be prepared and prevent all he could. He wouldn't want Nightmare to be unleashed. He was happy beyond comprehension that nobody got harmed the previous night.

Speedy walked away and thought to himself T'his time, I'll prove to Crymson I'm better than that loser Static

Flame thinks for a second "I'm still shocked that someone can be turned into a vampire...It confuses me, I may re-search it as it could hold the answer to an antidote and all the like, as a Fang like that would be helpful"

The dingo, who still had not introduced himself, merely raised an eyebrow at the pyrofox's pun.

Bladelocke knelt down and picked up Katherine in his arms, "Well, we better get going."

Valencia woke from her nap, then sat up. After running her fingers through her hair, she asked "Wait, are we going somewhere?"

Crymson happened to yawn as well. She didn't have enough sleep all night. She started to stretch. "Well, I definitely need some sleep. I don't want to see Static with a tired look on my face." She laughed. She started to run back home to rest.

"I thought we were going to see Robin?" The dingo asked Crymson.

Crymson smiled and put her hands on the back of her head. "Well, since Katherine cured my vampiric madness, I can finally get some rest. Well, catch you later." As Crymson waved goodbye and ran off. But what she didn't know is that the fog is still in the air, only to be invisible in daylight.

Speedy,Reeper and Archer were in the middle of the forest looking for green grove

The dingo and his companion shared a glance. Then the dingo spoke, "Hmm. Alright." He said before turning back to everyone else who was still in the area. "For those of you who don't know us," he said. "I am Twilight, and my friend here is Eclipse." The figure standing next to him, who's name was apparently "Eclipse", said nothing. Instead, she merely waved her hand as though to say hello.

Twilight watched as Crymson departed. He sometimes forgot people need sleep which is something he hasn't been able to for 3 years. It was something he missed but moments like now he was happy he didn't need sleep. Then he heard another voice and it was coming from the dingo. They were certainly new to the group from what he can tell. "Twilight huh? That's a nice name." the Lycalo said with a chuckle. "My name is Twilight as well. It's nice to meet you both." he continued with a smile, extending his arm for a handshake.

The other Twilight looked at the hand for a moment, then proceeded to shake the Lycalo's hand.

Twilight shook the hand then retreated it back to his side. Something about this other Twilight seemed mildly unsettling. He seemed like a good guy and all, but there was something inside him that the Lycalo sensed and made him curious. Plus he was wondering why Eclipse was so silent, but perhaps everything would be answered in due time. Seeing as how things got silent, he decided to speak. "So are we waiting for her to get back, or are we gonna see this Robin person?" he asked, wondering if whoever chose to help Crymson can help him as well.

Flame shrugs "I don't know, I suppose we should wait for her, though I'm getting tired, I may depart and Return later, After all most of us need rest." He sighed "I honestly didn't expect this whole thing to happen."

"I'm pretty tired, too." Valencia said, half yawning. "I would've gotten more sleep, but I kinda woke up in the middle of the night, and now I'm almost out of energy."

Bladelocke looked at the dingo, "I think I know you from somewhere... I would shake your hand too, but Katherine here... Speaking of which, I feel ready to go to Robin's house."

after a long time the three hedgehogs found green grove

Archer was shocked at what he saw the once green and lush village he knew was a pile of soot and ashes he was distraught

Reeper saw the vamp berries and picked them up

Speedy found a burnt bit of parcment it read

"the lost archer all alone

the lost archer with no home

one day he will return

but while we wait the forrest will burn

although the hero shall fall

the war will be stopped for ever more"

Speedy saw how upset Archer was "c'mon Archer lets go home"

Archer"they were talking about me.."

Speedy"yeah but lets quickly get the berries back"

and the three left green grove The dingo looked at his silent companion. "Something wrong?" he asked.

Eclipse merely nodded her head, but Zorovar (known to the rest of the group as "Twilight") seemed to understand what she was thinking. "Hmm. You sure?" he asked. Again, only silence from Eclipse. "Alright. I'll tell them." he said before turning to the group. "We should head into Station Square, see if anyone else was affected by what ever turned Crymson into a vampire."

Valencia looked a bit confused. She knew Zorovar, whom she only knew as "Twilight," had something a bit weird about him. The werefox yawned. "Well, I was gonna go home and rest up a bit, but seeing if anybody else if affected is much more important. Sleeping will have to wait, I guess."

Eclipse nodded, then looked at Zorovar. "Alright," Zorovar said, "Eclipse suggested we go together in small groups. I'll go with Eclipse and Valencia." He wanted to go with Valencia to ask her a few questions; she was a very unusual vampire. ''Perhaps she's only part vampire? ''he wondered. Well, part vampire and weremobian, anyway.

Bladelocke looked at the wolf in his arms, "What about Katherine?" he asked.

Speedy"WE HAVE THE VAMP BERRIES!"

Flame looked at Speedy "Oh? And do they work?" He laughs "I don't think a medicinal berry could do so."

Valencia was starting to get annoyed. "They can't and won't work because there's no such thing. If he keeps mentioning them, I'll have to slam my face into a tree." She looks over at the tree she broke while in her were-form. ''Which I think I might have already done. ''She thought.

Speedy"well look right here they exsist but if they work i have no idea"

"Alright, that's it." Valencia walked calmly over to the nearest tree, which was pretty close since they were in a forest. Using a large portion of her strength, she smacked her forehead into the trunk. She fell onto the ground and put her hand on her forehead.

Flame laughs "Aren't you clever, Speedy mind handing them here so I can anylyse them?" He gestures Speedy to give them to himself.

Speedy gives him a vamp berry "here you go"

Flame looks at it "Hmmm..." He seems to be looking at it carfully "This is a Cranberry, While Incredibly sour, Definately has no medicinal Capabilities." He gives it back to Speedy "I have a feeling that won't cure Vampirism."

Archer"no you ust be wrong theyre vamp berries my elders in my village said they could cure it"

"Well your elders are wrong. Vampire berries, which I'm using the correct word, never have, nor will they ever exist." Val got off the ground. "Cranberries are for cranberry sauce."

"And Drinks." Flame added "They are also Incredibly Sour and Kind of Bitter."

Archer"no you must be wrong they are vamp berries and that a fact"

Sppeedy and Reeper didnt want to breack it to him that his eleders didnt know squat when it comes to medicene

Flame sighs "Obviously your elders new nothing of medicine, Superstition isn't fact." Flame shrugs "Theres no Scientific explanation for 'Vamp Berries' Do you really think thats possible?"

"If my head wasn't bleeding, I'd go smack my face into the tree again." Valencia said, still with her hand on her forehead. A tiny bit of blood was staining the fur around her hand.

Archer"its not superstiton its fact"

Speedy"why did you smack your head at a tree? it cant be healthy" he then paused "wait if your a vamp your technicaly undead so how do you have blood?"

"I have blood because I'm alive. And can you please say the entire word, 'vampire?' It's a bit disrespectful to not address your unholy monsters by their full title." Valencia stated.

Flame shrugged "Besides Zombies are undead not vampires. Here Valencia, prove Archer wrong and Eat this Cranberry, Even If it is very Sour."

"Alright. But I don't really care for cranberries." Val took the berry from Flame and ate it. She looked at Archer with glowing eyes. "See? Still a monster."

Flame shrugs "Monster is the wrong words, Is it not Non-Mortal?" He sighs "Or are they the same thing?"

[Frost: Only Valencia, Crymson, Flame, and anyone who was in the roleplays Nightmare in Station Square or The 12 Days of Christmas will know the dingo. He is Zorovar Hallstrom, but everyone else only knows him as "Twilight." Yes, I'm aware that there is already another character with that name :)  ]

[Frost: Did everyone forget about Zorovar? No one even bothered talking to him.]

[Monk: heh heh, sorry about that]

[Monk: Austin would know a cure... it's just that finding all the ingedients would take an extremely long time.]
