Chapter 24

"When can you do another one?" Aella asks Cian. "I like to wait until one is in the trance before another one," Cian explains to Aella. "What else can we do once we are vampires?" Alberto asks Cian.

 "You can hypnotize and put others into trances. You can't turn into a bat at all." Replies Cian. "That will sure help us here." Said King Arthur as he explains what he meant. "I have heard about these creatures. They tried to take over my home planet, They able to. I will help here as well." Said Cian. "I will show you around," said Dagon as he leads Cian around the castle.

 (Three days went by.)

 Dagon walks towards Alberto's home. Once there, he knocks on the door. Bridget answers the door. "Nice to see you, brother," Bridget said to Dagon. "Thanks, how is Alberto doing?" He asks her."" "Good. Can you stay with him? I need to do some errands for a while," Bridget asks Dagon. ""Sure, I don't mind." Dagon replies as he enters. ""Thanks. I shouldn't be long," replies as she leaves. "Dagon walks towards the living room. "Hey how are you feeling? " Dagon asks Alberto. "Good. It might be today that I go into the trance." That is my guess. " Said Alberto. "You could be right. I think Bridget should go next, in case my necklace feels the castle is threatened. " Said Dagon. "I agree there. You should go last in case Bridget isn't strong enough," suggests Alberto. Dagon nods his head in agreement.

 They talk for a while. Dagon sees Alberto go into a trance. Dagon helps Alberto into his bed and helps him to lie down. Few minutes later, Bridget enters the room. She sees Alberto lying down. "He just went into that trance. “ “ Said Dagon to Bridget.” "OK. I am going to get Cian to check him over." Said Bridget as she sends one of the servants to get Cian. "Alberto and I were thinking that you will be next in case there are attacks. I will go last." Replies Dagon to Bridget. "Good idea." Said Bridget.

 Few minutes later, Cian is there. Bridget shows Alberto. Dagon explains when Alberto went into the trance. "OK, he will be like that for a couple of days. I can do another one now. He will be around when the next one goes into theirs. Once Alberto is awake, he must drink some of my blood to complete the transformation." Said Cian. "OK, I will go next." Said Bridget as she explained how they work it out. "Sounds good to me. Please stand in front of me.” " Said Cian to Bridget. She did what she was told. "Please look into my eyes.” " Said Cian. She does what Cian said as he does the spell. Bridget is in the trance. Then he does his job. He checks her over and brings her out of the trance.

 "I didn’t feel a thing." Said Bridget. Cian nods his head in agreement. "Your servants can keep an eye on you until Alberto is back on his feet." Said Cian as he leaves. "It will be slow. It took three days before Alberto went into the trance." Said Dagon to Bridget. She nods her head in agreement. "I will let father know about Alberto and about you." Said Dagon as he leaves.

 In a few minutes later, Dagon is in the main chamber. King Arthur sees him. "Any news?" He asks Dagon. "Alberto just went into the trance. Cian just did Bridget." Said Dagon to his father. He also explains the order they are doing it in. "That is a good idea." Said King Arthur.

 "How long will he be in trance sleep for?" Queen Daphne asks Dagon. "Couple of days. Their servants are looking after them until Alberto is on his feet."Replies Dagon. "He will be different." Said King Arthur. "I agree same with Bridget, Aella, and me.” Replies Dagon.

 (Three days went by.)

 Dagon walks towards Alberto's home. He knocks and one of the servants opens the door. "She is expecting you." Said the servant as she leads him to Bridget. "Hey sis. How is it going?”  Dagon asks her. "Good. Cian checked over Alberto out and he said he will come any time. “If I go into the trance, you are supposed to get Cian." Said Bridget to Dagon. "OK. I am sure he will wake up on his own. " Said Dagon.

 They talk until Dagon notices Bridget is going into a trance. Dagon helps Bridget into bed. He notices Alberto is awake. He gets a servant to get Cian. In a few minutes, later, Cian is there. He checks Alberto over. "I want you to drink some blood. It will taste weird at first." Said Cian as he brings his arm in front of Alberto. Alberto takes it and he drinks from it. After a few minutes, Alberto is done. He wipes his mouth off.

 "That was weird. I don't remember anything at all."Said Alberto. "I will be careful until you are used to being a vampire. Stay out of bright light. In a couple of days, I will help you transform back into a human." Said Cian to Alberto. "OK." Replies Alberto as he stands up. He notices Bridget. "She just goes into the trance." Said Dagon. "OK, thanks," replies Alberto. "You welcome." Said Dagon as he and Cain leave.

They walk to Dagon's home. Once there, Dagon lets Cian enter. Aella sees them enter. "How did Bridget do?" " Aella asks Dagon. Dagon explains everything to Aella. "Wow. How is Alberto?" Aella asks Dagon. "Good, he looks different now." Said Dagon. "I can't wait to see him. It is my turn?" Asks Aella. "Yes please stand in front of me." Cian asks Aella. She does what she has been told. "Please look into my eyes.” " Cian asks Aella. She does, and Cian does the spell. Aella goes into the trance. He checks her over before he bites her. After awhile, he has done his job, and he brings Aella out of the trance. Cian leaves. "It will be a long wait." Said Aella to Dagon. "I agree. At least, we can spend time together." Said Dagon.

 (Three days went by.)

 There was a knock on the door. Dagon opens the door and sees Alberto there. "Come in."Said Dagon to Alberto as he lets Alberto in. "Bridget is awake, and Cian fed her. "Said Alberto. "That is good. We think Aella will go any minute now." Said Dagon as he leads Alberto to the living room, Where they talk for a while. Dagon notices Aella goes into a trance. Dagon helps her to the bed. "It will be another few days for her."Said Dagon to Alberto. "I agree. I will get Cian for you." Said Alberto as he leaves. Few minutes later, Cian is there. "Are you ready, Dagon?" Cian asks Dagon. "Yes I am." Replies Dagon as he stands in front of Cian. "Please look into my eyes.” Said Cian. Dagon does what he was told. Cian does the spell, and Dagon is in the trance. Cian does his thing, and he brings Dagon out of the trance."

 "You sure don't feel or remember anything. " Said Dagon. Alberto nods his head in agreement. "Once you're all vampires, I will show you how to change back." Said Cian. "OK, I will be easier that way." " Said Alberto. Cain nods his head in agreement. Cian leaves. "I will stay here until you are into the trance. It comes fast; you won’t know it’s happening at all." Said Alberto to Dagon. "I could tell with you and the others."  Replies, Dagon.

 (Another three days went by.)

 Dagon and Alberto are talking about stuff when Dagon goes into the trance. Alberto helps Dagon onto his bed and helps him lie down. He notices Aella is awake, he calls one of the servants to get Cian. Few minutes later, Cian is there. Alberto shows him where.  Aella is. Cian offers his arm and Aella drinks from it. "That is enough. We need to wait until Dagon is up before I teach you about vampires and how to change back."" Said Cian to Aella. “Good idea. I don’t remember going into a trance at all.”  Said Aella.

 (Four days went by.)

Everyone is in the main chamber. Both King Arthur and Queen Daphne are surprised by how Dagon and the others look. Cian sees their reaction. "I will show you what you can do when you are a vampire." Said Cian to the others. He shows them what to do. He shows them how to put people into trance, how to hypnotize. Dagon does what Cian is doing. "It is easy after you practice. I will show you how to change back to a human and back to a vampire. When you are a vampire, you can still go into the sunlight as well." Said Cian as he shows them how to change back. They follow Cian, and they are able to change with no trouble at all.

 "You still can eat normal food as well." Said Cian. "I still think it is cool as well." Said Alberto to Cian. One of the guards enters the room. "What is it?"King Arthur asks him. He tells what they found. "Was there anyone with it?" King Arthur asks him. "Yes, he is being held in the room." He replies. "I will be there. Dagon please come with me. Your new gift might be helpful." Said King Arthur to Dagon. "Sure." Replies Dagon as they leave.”

 (At the room.)

 "Before we enter, I would change before you enter." Said King Arthur to Dagon. "I agree." Replies Dagon as he changes into the vampire. They enter the room. "Who are you?"King Arthur asks the stranger. The stranger just looks at them without saying anything. "It will be easier for you if you work with us.” " Said King Arthur. He kept silent. King Arthur kept trying. He still refuses to say anything.

 "You can try now." Said King Arthur to Dagon. "OK." Dagon replies. "I want you to look into my eyes." Said Dagon to the stranger. The stranger looks up at Dagon. Dagon does the spell, and the stranger is being hypnotized. "You are going to tell us what you were doing?" Dagon said to the stranger. The stranger spills what he knows. Dagon looks at his father. Dagon makes him forget what he said and bring him out of the hypnotize. King Arthur motions the guards to take him away. Once the guards are there, the stranger tries to fight them. "Try to hold him," said Dagon as he walks towards the stranger. Dagon brings the stranger's head up, and he puts him into a trance. "I will follow so I can take him out of the trance," said Dagon to the guards. They walk to the holding cell.

 (Later)

 Dagon and King Arthur return to the main chamber. "How did it go?" Queen Daphne asks them.” King Arthur explains what they found out. "That sounds like those creatures that attacked my home planet." Said Cian. "He was only a scout. He really didn’t know that much. “Only to report where you had gone." Said Dagon.

 "We need to be careful; there might be more. " Said Alberto. "I agree. I am sure we can beat them. I will put up the force field for now." Said King Arthur as he heads to the control room.
