Abigail who didn't like to take here eyes off her target looked at Fendrel as he approached her she braced herself as his hand came up, but it never came."Didn't I tell you to get to your quarters and have your beauty sleep"he said.

Abigail looked away from him and at the girl still having her bow aimed," I understand but i walk the wall twice before I sleep.." She didn't expect him to respond to that.

"My daughter, I do believe we have a guest to attend to"

Abigail had a surprised look on her face and faced him again," I don't think-" She was about to tell him that it wasn't a good idea. Abigail hated guests.

Fedrel cut her off,"I trust you'll prepare a fine goblet of wine, and do get some meat of that human hunter ready for her! I might be undead, but I'd hate to be a bad host. It simply isn't done. Gives us vampires a terrible reputation"

Abigail looked back at the girl grinding her teeth wanting to just shoot her now.This girl would only lead to trouble and Abigail knew it. She made p her mind that at the first chance she had she would kill her. Abigail dropped her bow and slipped the arrow back in her bag,"Fine..." she held back a growl and watched him leave the wall. Once she watched him approach the girl she growled and turned going inside.

Abigail Prepared the whine and meat, she would be very much amused if the girl was human. She lit a few extra candles and made place mats for two and not three as she would not be joining them at the table.Once she was done she found herself at the gate waiting at lever to close it as she planed to close the gate once Fendrel and the girl walked in. She stared at the two of them glancing into the woods every few minutes, she was uncomfortable at the fact that there were so many wolves in the woods and Fendrel was outside of the wall.Abigail gripped her bow.

The moment she had mumbled those words, a slight glint of metal appeared as Fendrel half-unsheathed his blade, only to let it slide back into its scabbard when the notion that this way of disposing of his guest might be a bit, well, indiscreet, came upon him. Thus he simply straightened up, his smile had faded, his stare had once more turned cold and calculating "I see, the greatest of beasts" He spat every single word as if it were an insult "I can imagine what you are refering to, and if there is indeed a hero, we should all look up to him" He pulled his cloak closer "Or seek solace under his kind" The werewolf fur felt soft, even though he has only the fewest of feelings it tingled on his skin, seemed to beckon at the touch for a moment, but still warmed him. A masterpiece indeed.

"But please, don't let me keep you" He pivoted on one leg, attempting to grab her arm and shove her off the perimeter in one fluent movement, enabling the gate to shut quickly without locking her in "ABIGAIL, CLOSE THE DAMN GATE!" His hiss echoed through the castle walls, penetrated sensitive ears and stung into the brain like an angry bee. Weels started to turn in his head, gears, formulating a strategy. Had this been a diversion? Was the rear guarded? No, impossible. These were dumb beasts. Abominations that did not belong, neither here nor anywhere else. There was no place for them, and Count Agnafarius would not have them tread on his ground. And the same went for their allies, which in his eyes, included that girl he was about to cast out "As for you, get back into that forest and crawl into a cave with one of your furry bastards. You will find no shelter here, wretch"

Abigail held her expressionless face as she listened to the girl, she found it very amusing that it was a human girl and found it even more amusing as Abigail took her comment as a threat. Mentioning that she knew one of the greatest beasts made Abigail want to shot her there and if Fendrel didn't bark his order she would have."ABIGAIL, CLOSE THE DAMN GATE!"

Abigail didn't hesitate in closing the gate and reinforcing it. She ran up the stairs and placed herself on the wall and looked down at the girl he had pushed with a slight smile on her face.Abigail drew her bow and aimed it at the girl, she glanced at Fendrel as if to wait for his direction before she killed the girl.In silence Abigail thought back on the camp she had run into and she remembered the wolf who lead the attack on the enclave.He was huge and strong but she had no doubts that she could kill him, given some effort.

Fendrel recoiled from the girl in disgust "Sanity must have left you long ago, the way you speak, the way you act is that of a lunatic" He shook his head in Abigails direction "The mad often speak the truth, but feel free to fire as many shots as you want anyway Abigail. Not like I could keep you from doing it anyway" The gate was already closed, but the large double doors that would muffle every sound and finally lock her out were still open. With some effort Fendrel managed to close them, slamming the heavy wooden beam into place "They'll need a siege tower to breach our defenses, if not more"

He could not care less about the fate of that girl, yet her powers did intrigue him "Abigail, remember that ballista I loaded?" he asked her when he reached the wall. How about we give that" he nodded in Rydias direction "a shot kehe! You're a good markswoman, so I reckon you ought to calibrate it. Never been a very good aim with siege weapons" He looked at the apperature and once again marvelled at its killing power. A two-man ballista was capable of firing bolts about 6 feet long, a silver tip, strong enough to penetrate armor when launched with such dazzling speed resting on its top, it had seen a few bloody battles within the last centuries, yet the count had always oiled its hinges and kept it in perfect shape. But magic was something else, and Agnafarius was willing to waste one of his bolts on it "Fire at will Abigail"

"The mad often speak the truth, but feel free to fire as many shots as you want anyway Abigail. Not like I could keep you from doing it anyway" Fendrel said.

Abigail shot the arrow aimed at the girls heart, but it was deflected. Her face showed confusion but she wasn't about to give up, she grabbed her dual axes that were leaning on the wall and prepared to jump off the wall and attack the girl head on but then Fendrel suggested the ballista. Abigail tilted her head at the girl and perked an eye brow then set her axes down and made her way over to the ballista. She had to push it back some with effort just to get it to aim directly at the girl. Abigail pulled the lever as soon as she was satisfied with the position launching the bolt. Hearing it land Abigail ran up the wall and looked down at the girl who had actually stood up? The bolt was laying right next to her. She knew she didn't miss so Abigail assumed the girl had a power.

Abigail looked around hearing the trees move she noticed about a dozen wolves staring back at her from the edge of the trees.She assumed the noise of the ballista drew their attention. Abigail growled and drew her bow shooting one of them in the head knocking him off his feet. Five of the wolves saw it and turned back around the other six came running out from the trees in rage. Abigail hit two more killing them with her arrows,the other four shifted to their werewolf form and continued to come at the wall. Abigail put her bow down and picked up her dual axes again and jumped off the wall landing in a crouched position next to the girl. At the moment she was no threat so Abigail stood up and ran at the four werewolves. She ducked one set a claws and turned swinging her right axes into his back wounding him. she went straight for the next one and jumped high into the air clearing about ten feet and landed slashed the werewolf across the chest giving him a fetal wound. The third werewolf came running full speed on her right, Abigail turned and threw her left axe at him landing it between his eyes. The wounded werewolf and the last one both came running at her, she ducked and rolled landing on her feet. The wounded werewolf was the faster one and got to Abigail first swinging his deadly claws at her. Abigail ducked and dodged barely missing his claws by inches, she leaned back as his right claw nearly had her face. Abigail swung her body around cutting his leg making him stager she then kicked his chest sending him down.The fourth werewolf grabbed her from behind in a bear hug. Abigail struggled a little then swung the axe down stabbing him in the leg with it. Once he let her go she took the axe out and used it to take his head off. She looked around and saw the other werewolf struggling to stand, Abigail took her time walking over to one of the dead wolves and retrieving her axe from his chest. She tossed her head back getting her hair out of the way. The werewolf that struggled was about to let out a howl but Abigail cut it off by cutting off his head.

Abigail looked to the enclave to check on Fendrel who seemed fine. She then walked over to the girl and pointed one of her axes at her throat," Go to your hero for he will fall, tell him he stands against a greater power and that if he threatens my master there is no telling at how hard or fast I will hunt him down and kill him." She looked the girl up and down once and waved her axe to the side," Now go." Abigail growled.

Sam was scared, the fangs and her acute senses , were different for her. She been out of practice for so long. The wolf that has now hunted, could kill her. Or seriously hurt her.She let him go. than ran into the woods. The hunger still burned in her veins. She has to feed now. She caught the sent of faint blood. It smelled familiar. She couldn't place it at the moment. It smelled human. Sam moved faster. As she came up behind a girl. all she seen was a striped scarf and knew who it was. Rydia. Her hunger was at full blast now. She felt it gnaw in the pit of her stomach. Sam knows her, yet she can't stop what her body wants to do. Sam walks up behind her and growls. Her eyes were fierce. She looked like rabid dog, that hasn't fed in a month or more. "Im sorry" She says in a deep, husky voice. "It wont go away." She was panicking now. "I can't stop it." Tears were running down her face now. She didn't want to hurt her. She actually liked Rydia. But the hunger was unbearable.

Samantha couldn't control herself. She sent her mind to soothe Rydia. She didn't want her to suffer. But the hunger was so strong now. And when her blood touched her tongue. Sam's taste buds came alive. She felt the saliva pouring on to her shoulder. Which helped soothe the pain, of her teeth going into her neck. *im sorry Rydia...I'll try to stop* Sam spoke to Rydia through her mind. But when she screamed some ones name, Sam felt Viscous, she was ready to fight anyone. Since right now, with Rydia blood in her veins. Sam didn't want to drain her so she just, pulled away against her lust's will. She looks at Rydia, some how it seemed she was cradling her against her like a little girl. Sam looked at her sorrowfully. With Rydia's blood smeared on her face . it was probably very hard to believe that she was sorry. Sam looked Rydia in the eyes " Are you ok?" She set her down on a soft spot of the forest. "Im so sorry, it's been so long. She could feel the heat rising with in her from her blood. her cheeks were flushed and her eyes were shining brightly. Her was as wild as it was before. She was truly sorry. sam just hoped that rydia really took it, and forgave her.
