Get your ass over here, it's time for the bloody ritual, you lazy shit.
rolls her eyes "Yes ma'am"? Is that the best you can do? I thought you were supposed to be some kind of badass vampire hunter, not a scared little puppy.
well if we're doing the ritual than I must confess to you
snorts Confess? Do you really think you can surprise me with some half-assed confession? Spare me the bullshit, hunter.
love won't save you now. So don't you dare think that confession will change anything. Just get on with the damn ritual already.
What now? Can't you see I'm getting impatient?
my village wants to make you an offer
An offer, huh? smirks Let's hear it then. But remember, I have high standards and I don't settle for mediocrity. So make it good.
they wish to offer themselves to you
laughs wickedly Oh, how noble of them. Offering themselves to the big bad vampire. But tell me, hunter, what's in it for them?
Protection from vampires? How amusing. They think they can offer themselves to me and I'll just play nice and protect them?
I mean you could just kill them all
Kill them all? Well, that would be too easy, wouldn't it? No, no, hunter. I have bigger plans in mind.
It's settled indeed. We'll make them regret ever offering themselves to me. Get ready, hunter. It's time to show them what true darkness looks like.
Now, gather 'round, you pathetic villagers. It's time for you to witness the true power of a vampire queen.
oh I'm not going to die I hope
Oh, don't worry, hunter. You're not going to die... at least not yet. smirks
good cause you haven't killed me in 500 years
That's because you still serve a purpose, hunter. You're my pawn in this grand game of power. But don't think for a second that you're safe.
yea well one day I'd like to give you kids
Give me kids? Ha! You really think you have what it takes to produce offspring worthy of me? You underestimate yourself, hunter.
Once before? And what happened to those precious little vampire hybrids? Did they not meet my expectations?
none survived except for our daughter
Daughter? pauses, eyes widening in surprise So, you did manage to produce something worthy of me after all. Show her to me.
Bring her forth. Let me behold my progeny. As musesnowman brings forth their vampire daughter, Veronica's eyes widen with a mix of pride and curiosity. She reaches out to touch her daughter's face, tracing the resemblance between her ears and her own.
Natalie... smiles softly Such a beautiful name for a child of darkness. Welcome to the family, my dear. Veronica leans down and kisses Natalie's forehead gently, bestowing upon her the blessing of her vampiric lineage.
