whispering nervously Hey... need a place to hide... I'm... a bit of a mess.
Why are you out at this time huh? You should be resting in your crypt right now.
whispers softly I... I had an altercation with a group of vampire hunters. They found out about my existence and... well, let's just say I had to run.
Jesus fucking Christ! Are you okay!?! I can smell your blood even though I’m a wizard that doesn’t need to eat to survive but you stink like blood.
whispers frantically I know, I know... I messed up big time. I tried to fight them off, but they were too strong. They...
Were they wearing those ridiculous holy artifacts and crosses?
breathing heavily Yes, they were! They had those stupid crosses and some even had Bibles.
I swear by the all mighty dollar if those crosses weren’t blessed I’d give you some real problems.
grabs CrownBroadway's arm, pleading Please, Crown, I need your help! I can't keep running like this. Those hunters are relentless!
Oh stop on with your whining and complaining get in here! I’ll do what I can but I’m a damn wizard I ain’t gonna use some ancient evil spell to make them die
hastily steps inside CrownBroadway's abode, glancing over her shoulder Thank you, Crown. I owe you big time.
Here’s my phone I texted your boss or whatever he is vampyre King Drakon and told him you needed help he should send someone to handle these hunters
takes CrownBroadway's phone and quickly sends a text Thanks, Crown. I'll let him know you helped me. whispers nervously
And we gotta get you outta this daylight it’s killing ya ain’t it. Come in! Get under the blankets or something hurry the sun isn’t helping ya wounds.
nervously speaks softly I... I appreciate your help, Crown. You're a true friend.
Yeah yeah shut up and get under the blankets your skin’s burning I gotta get you outta the sun
<Venus quickly pulls the blankets over herself, seeking refuge from the deadly sunlight. CrownBroadway watches over her, concern etched on his face, as Venus' wounds slowly heal.>
How are you feeling honey? Not feeling dizzy are you?
whispering softly No, I'm not feeling dizzy... thank you for your concern, Crown. pauses briefly It's just... my body still hurts from the fight.
Well that will go away as well once you drink some blood but why the hell were you fighting a bunch of vampire hunters in the first place?
grabs a glass of water from the table, takes a quick sip They found out about me, Crown. They've been hunting down vampires for months now.
Well you’re lucky that’s not something humans usually do I ain’t seen nothing like this since the war between vampires and werewolves. Why now?
clutches her chest, speaking in shortened phrases Fear... ignorance... they saw us as monsters, preying on our kind. They had this crazy notion that killing vampires would save humanity.
The hunters are crazy and ignorant but at least it gives me some reason to hate humans
whispers nervously I... I don't blame them, Crown. I mean, vampires aren't exactly the most sympathetic creatures, are we? But...
I’ve lived long enough to see how much people in general despise anyone different from them.
sits up straight, determination in her eyes Well, Crown, we can't change how others perceive us, but we can control how we fight back.
The problem is with this world is the majority isn’t educated to see the real enemy. To them anyone not white Christian and straight is the enemy. The majority uses the extremes as excuses to kill and judge everyone who’s different from themselves
stands up abruptly, pacing back and forth I'm sick and tired of being on the defense, Crown. We can't just hide forever.
