Chapter 2 - Alucard Dracul

Schaffe walks through the hall of Frye Manor. when he sees The Vampire sneaking around a corner not seeing him.

"Welcome to my humble home," said Schaffe. The Vampire gets spooked and draws his sword at Schaffe and goes for a slash but he sidesteps the attack to get out of the way.

"Who are you?" asked The Vampire.

"Who am I? Well, I am the owner of this house, The Great, Schaffe Frye," said Schaffe.

"Sorry, last time I heard a man named James Frye, was the Head of the Frye Family," said The Vampire.

"Ah, my father sadly has been missing for years, I even wonder if still with the living," said Schaffe.

"Sorry but I cannot trust anyone so easily I have a mission I have to complete," said The Vampire.

"It's alright, I need to get some rust off anyway," said Schaffe. He draws his blade out in his right hand.

"You be mistaking to fight me for a human," said The Vampire.

"Like I am scared of an immortal being who needs blood to survive," said Schaffe. The Vampire goes in for another slash but Schaffe sidesteps again but this time lands a left punch to the Vampire's face which knocks him back to the nearby wall. The Vampire gets up and sees Schaffe yawning as if he is already tired.

"Cocky, Bastard," said The Vampire who goes for another slash horizontally. But Schaffe uses his blade to block it.

"I can tell you must be a novice and it seems you are uncomfortable with this blade you are using. must be used to different types of sword," said Schaffe.

"What? how do you know that?" questioned The Vampire.

"Sir, I was trained to slay demons and I like to prepare before a hunt," said Schaffe. "but keep going I can feel my rust coming off." The Vampire keeps up his slashing at Schaffe who keeps dodging his attacks with no effort to it.

"Damn," said The Vampire getting tired from the swinging the claymore.

"I think it's time we end our little dance," said Schaffe. He points his left index up in the air. The Vampire looks up and sees a small bolt of lightning hit him knocking The Vampire out. Jay comes from the hall Schaffe came from.

"It seems you did not need me at all," said Jay.

"Of course, I'm a natural at this," said Schaffe.

"So, what would you like me to do?" asked Jay.

"Put our guest in the most confrontable bed we have here," said Schaffe. "He seemed to be looking for my father for something and I could not get info while he was attacking me."

"Yes, Sir," said Jay.

 

Hours later in a bedroom, Schaffe was reading a book when The Vampire awoke.

"Ah, I knew I didn't kill you," said Schaffe.

"Where am I?" asked The Vampire.

"You are still in my home and it's around eight in the morning now," said Schaffe. 

"So, I lost but why keep me alive?" asked The Vampire.

"Because it feels you are not my enemy it seems you're were looking for my father," said Schaffe. "So, why have you come here?"

"My mother told me once that she used to work here and if we were in trouble come look for James Frye in England if were in trouble," said The Vampire.

"I see Like I said he is gone now," said Schaffe. "But first allow me to know your name?"

"My name is Alucard Dracul," said The Vampire who revealed himself to be Alucard.

"Dracul, are you related to the Vampire King?" asked Schaffe.

"Yes, I'm his youngest son," said Alucard. Jay comes in with a push-kart with breakfast food.

"Good morning," said Jay.

"This is my head butler," said Schaffe.

"I am Jay MiJayson, Servant of Lord Frye," said Jay with a bow.

"This here is Prince Alucard Dracul," said Schaffe.

"Sorry, for my rudeness your majesty," said Jay.

"No, in fact, I don't want to be addressed as a prince," said Alucard. "My father has probably disowned me since I escaped his castle. You see Lord Frye I came here to give this to you then." He pulls out a strange small statue. Schaffe starts to feel a demonic presence coming from it.

"Jay, I would like to take this statue and take it to the secret vault. I feel its strange power," said Schaffe.

"Very well," said Jay. He takes the statue from Alucard opens a stomach hatch and places it inside. Jay would leave the room to do what his task was.

"It's in safe hands now," said Schaffe.

"Well, then my mission is complete," said Alucard.

"So, what is your next step?" asked Schaffe.

"I know I can't go back home," said Alucard.

"Alright, stay here then at least you be safe under my care," said Schaffe.

"Are you sure?" asked Alucard.

"Of course, I would like some backup if you are wondering there is no one but me in the Frye Order as my sister has left me with her husband to France," said Schaffe.

"I see," said Alucard. "All alright then I will serve in your order."

"Great, now let's have breakfast," said Schaffe.
