The Ashcroft sisters stood next to a small, dark opening in a rock face, located in the middle of the forest just outside of Alta. Moss and lichen covered the sides.
Since their first encounter with that first-ranked vampire, they had encountered a few more guards and lookouts, but none that reached the second rank.
They all died before being able to sound an alarm, some of them in an equally horrific manner as Emily's first victim. And each gave them a little more information.
Now, they finally found themselves in front of a cave where the occupying German forces had once build a bunker inside, during WWII.
"Are you sure this is the place?" Emma asked through their bond, a little skeptically.
"Should be," Emily shrugged. "Astrid's map fits, and while none of those first-ranked idiots we found on our way here knew for sure, they had heard rumors."
"Alright, but why are there no guards here?" Emma continued, still not satisfied.
