Chapter 25

"Do you think those are working with the other ones?" Aella asks King Arthur. “"I have no idea. We need to keep an eye out in case. I can’t keep the force field on.” " Said King Arthur. The captain of the guards enters the main chamber. "What is it?" Ask King Arthur. He explains what happened to the stranger.

 "How did he escape?" Dagon asks. "I have no idea." Replies the captain of the guards replies. "Do you think one of the guards let him out?" Queen Daphne asks the captain. "I have no idea." He replies. "Bring them here." Said King Arthur to the captain. He leaves to do what King Arthur asks. Few minutes later, they are there. "Tell me what happen?" He asks them.

 They look at each other without answering King Arthur question. The captain repeats the question. They still didn’t answer the question. Dagon changes into the vampire. Alberto does the same thing. "Let us try." Said Dagon to his father. "Sure,” King Arthur replies. "I want you to look into my eyes." Said Dagon to one of the guards.” He refuses to look up. "Can you hold him?" Dagon asks the captain. He nods his head in agreement. He holds the guard. Dagon brings his head up. He casts the hypnotize spell, and he gets hypnotized.

 Alberto does the other guard. "Tell us what happened, one at a time.”  said Dagon to the guards. They tell what happened. Both Dagon and Alberto bring them out of the trance. "You are under house arrest until we find him again.” Said King Arthur.

"I will get some guards to look for him," said the captain as he took the other two guards with him. Dagon watches him leave. "Do you think they will find him again?" Dagon asks his father. "I have no idea." He replies.

(Next Day.)

 "Any luck with the stranger? " Dagon asks King Arthur. "Not yet. The guards are keeping an eye out for him. " Said King Arthur.

 Suddenly the alarms are going off. "What is going on?" Bridget asks her father. "I have no idea." He replies. The captain of the guards enters. "Your majesty, somehow the water got turned off. Plus they also turned off the force field as well. We also spotted ships as well." The captain said to King Arthur.

 "Go and see if you can turn on the water. Get some guards to guard Dagon’s and Alberto’s children as well." Said King Arthur. "Will do." Replies the captain replies as he leaves. Alberto, Dagon, and Cian transform into vampires. "Please be careful." Said Queen Daphne to Dagon. "We will." He replies as they leave.

 Dagon explains what he wants to have done. They do what they got asked to do.  "Do you think the necklace will help us as well?" Bridget asks her father. "Yes, let’s wait and see if anything else comes up." King Arthur replies.

"Why is it taking so long?" Aella asks King Arthur. “"I know. I think they want to be careful and make sure everything is alright." King Arthur replies. "How did they find out about Cian being here?" Bridget asks her father. "No idea. We can ask him later.” " King Arthur replies.

One of the guards enters the room. "What is it?" King Arthur asks him. The guard explains what happened. "It looks like Dagon and the others were able to capture them and turn the water and the force felid." Finishes the guard. "Do you think we are able to capture them?" Asks Aella asks King Arthur. "We can try. My guess is it won’t be easy to do." He replies. Few minutes later, Dagon enters the throne room. He changes back. "That wasn’t easy at all." Replies Dagon as he sits down. "The guard told us part of it." Said Queen Daphne.

 "Those creatures sure know how to get into small places. We had to trick them to get out of there." Said Dagon. "Are you able to hypnotize these creatures?" Alberto asks Cain. "I really don’t know.” "I have no idea what their true shape is. We can try," replies Cian. "We should do it where they can't escape at all."  Said Dagon. Cian nods his head in agreement. King Arthur tells them about a room that they can use.

 (Few minutes later, they are in the room.)

"I hope this works," said Alberto as he transformed. "I agree as well." Replies Dagon as he signals the guards to bring the prisoner to the room. It doesn’t take that long to bring him inside the room. Alberto and Cian and the guards hold the prisoner tightly so Dagon can hypnotize him. The prisoner is moving, trying to get out of the hold. Alberto and Cian hold tighter onto him."

 It doesn't take that long to get the prisoner hypnotized. "Explain why you are attacking here and the other planets are." Dagon asks him. "We want power and be able to live a long time. " He replies. Dagon looks at Alberto. "Will there be more attacks? How do we stop you from attacking us?" Dagon asks the prisoner. "You can't stop us. There will be more attacks until we get what is ours." Said the prisoner. Dagon kept asking questions. After a few hours, he brings him out of the hypnosis, and the guards bring him back to his cell.

 (Back at the main chamber.)

 King Arthur sees them enter. "Any luck with the prisoner?"  He asks them. Dagon explains what they found out. "They won't be getting it at all. It will be hard to stop them as well. We have no idea what their weakness is." Said King Arthur. "I agree all we can do is wait and see what their next move is." Replies Dagon.

"There must be a way to stop them," said Bridget as she listens in. "We have to be careful and keep watching so it won't happen again." Said King Arthur. "We better get some rest. It has been a long day."  Said Dagon as he leaves. The others follow as well.

 (Next Day.)"I am glad nothing happened during the night," said Aella to Dagon. "I agree." Replies Dagon. Suddenly there was a knock on the door. One of the servants went to answer the door. Few minutes later, the servant went to get Dagon. "What is it?" Dagon asks him. The servant tells Dagon, "OK. I am the way." Said Dagon as he follows the servant.

 Dagon sees it is his mom. "What is it, Mom?" He asks her." She tells him what is happening. "Did you tell Dad about this?" Dagon asks Queen Daphne. "He is missing. I sent out the guards to locate him." Replies Queen Daphne." I wonder if that prisoner knows what happened, or if they have another plan in case one of them gets captured," said Dagon as his things what the prisoner said to them. Queen Daphne nods her head in agreement. "I better talk to the captain to see if he notices anything about the prisoner. " Said Dagon as he leaves.

 (At the guard's quarters.)

 "What can I do for you, Prince Dagon?" Asks the captain. Dagon tells him what he wants. The captain tells Dagon what he saw, and he tells him about the prisoner’s habits. "Thanks. Lets me know if you find out." Said Dagon. "Will do." Replies the captain. Dagon heads back to the main chamber.

Dagon sees Alberto there. "Your mother told me. I wonder how they got your father."Alberto asks Dagon. "I have no idea." Replies Dagon to Alberto. Few minutes later, Castor shows up. Dagon sees Castor entering. "What is it?" Dagon asks Castor. Castor tells him what he heard. "Is there a way to get in contact with him?" Dagon asks Castor once he was done talking. "Yes. It will be hard to do. "I am sure I can do it after I find out how or when we're doing it," Finishes Castor. "The sooner, he better. I don't like how they can take us without us knowing it. " Said Dagon.

"I agree as well. We better do it at my area,just to be safe," said Castor as he heads towards his area. "I will let Aella know the same with Bridget," said Alberto as he watches Dagon following Castor. Few minutes later, they are in Castor's area. "How does this work?" " Dagon asks Castor. Castor explains what has to be done. "It sounds like the same elixirs that Bran used on me." Said Dagon to Castor. "It is the same elixirs, but there is a different one as well," replies Castor as he mixes the elixirs up. "I hope this works," Said Dagon as he watches Castor. "Me too. Once it is done, you won’t remember anything while you’re out cold." Said Castor.

 "How long will I be out?"  Dagon asks Castor. "I have no idea. It might take a while before we get the information we need." " Replies Castor. He also explains how Dagon will get the elixirs'. "I am ready when you are." Said Dagon. "OK, here'sthe first one," said Castor as he hands Dagon the first elixir. "I want you to walk around. The elixir will make you lightheaded," said Castor as he watches Dagon.

 "Whoa, I guess the first elixir works. I feel lightheaded." Said Dagon to Castor. "OK, here’s the other one. It will make you a bit woozy, and it will make you feel a bit drunk," said Castor as he hands Dagon another drink. "OK." Said Dagon as he starts to drink it." Then he walks around. Bridget and Aella enter. "Alberto told us what you are doing." We are here to give you some support. " Said Aella to Dagon. "Thanks. I am hoping it will work."Said Dagon. "Me too. I hope we will also find the person who took dad."Said Bridget. Dagon nods his head in agreement.

 "Dagon you look like you had too much to drink," said Aella as she watches Dagon. "It sure feels that way." Said Dagon. "This elixir will make you paralyze. It will be pretty fast. Aella can you help Dagon with it? I need to help Dagon now." Said Castor. "Sure."Replies Aella as she helps Dagon to drink the elixir. Then she puts it down and watches Dagon. After a while, she notices Dagon is having problems walking. "Bridget and Aella, can you move that chair and put it behind Dagon?" asks Castor to the girls. "Sure." Said Bridget as she and Aella bring the chair and place it behind Dagon. "Bridget, can you hold the chair so it won't move? Aella you can help me with Dagon. " Said Castor.

 Bridget went to hold the chair while Aella and Castor helped Dagon. Once he is sitting down, "What is the next step?" Dagon asks Castor. He explains what the next step is. "It will be pretty fast. This elixir is. Once you are in the trance, I will be asking questions and see what happens. If the trance won't work, I might have to do a deeper elixir that might put you into a coma for a while." Said Castor as he mixes the drink. "OK I understand." Said Dagon. Castor helps Dagon with the drink. Then he watches Dagon as he goes into the trance. Castor also gives Dagon a relax elixir. "Can you hear me, Dagon?" Castor asks Dagon.

 "I can." Said Dagon to Castor. "I want you to be in your father’s shoes. I want you to tell me what he is doing." Asks Castor. Dagon tries to think about what Castor asked, but he couldn’t. "I need to do the other elixir. Bridget can you please get Alberto? I need his help." Said Castor. "Sure." Said Bridget as she leaves. Few minutes later, Alberto is there. Castor explains what has to be done. Alberto does what Castor needs. In a short time, Dagon is laying down on the bed. "How fast does this elixir work?” Aella asks Castor. "Pretty fast. There will be changes to Dagon as well. It won’t last long. Once we get the information we need, I can give him the other elixir so he can wake up." Said Castor as he gives Dagon the elixir. He watches Dagon, after awhile Castor notices the changes, and he repeats the question.

 Dagon explains what his father was doing before he disappears. "Can you tell me who took him?” " Castor asks Dagon. Dagon is struggling with that question. "Do you think they knock him out without him seeing them? " Bridget asks Castor. "Could be. Is there anyone else in the room?”  Castor asks Dagon. Dagon explains what he sees. "Are you able to see anyone in the mirror?" Castor asks Dagon. "Yes." He replies. "Explain what you see.”  Castor asks Dagon. Dagon explains and describes the person he sees. Castor gives Dagon the elixir once they can’t get any more information. "He will sleep for awhile. You can visit him." Said Castor to Aella and Bridget. "I will let Queen Daphne know what we found out.” Said Alberto as he leaves.
