Morning had arrived. Justin was asleep next to the boy in the warehouse. A few men entered the room.
One of them walked over to the boy and said, "Hey, little boy, you must have wet yourself out of fear." He laughed.
Justin: "Hey Alan, don't be so weak and let them bully you."
Alan was looking at them in fear.
One of them came up to Justin and said, "Are you teaching this kid to be rebellious like you?" He smirked.
Justin: "I'm just teaching him not to bow down to you so easily, Dawson."
Alan screamed in fear, "I'm so scared!"
Dawson sat next to Alan and said, "Don't be afraid, we're going to take you to a very nice place." He smiled.
Justin thought: "A nice place, huh? They call such a big prison nice."
"Hey, you two! What are you doing?!"
Robin shouted angrily: "Get out of my way!"
Kyson: "He's stronger than Justin." He laughed.
Dawson looked at Robin and said: "He's also one of the queen's servants, capture him!"
A few men gathered around Robin with ropes to capture him.
Robin: "Damn it, there are too many of them!" He threw his sword to the ground.
Kyson: "Huh? He surrendered so easily!"
Justin shouted: "Robin!"
Dawson looked at Kyson and said: "And of course, this vampire."
Kyson looked at him.
Dawson said in surprise: "Why is a vampire who has become a human's slave here?" He looked in astonishment.
Kyson got angry and said: "Who are you calling a slave?!"
Dawson: "Well, you have those earrings."
Kyson got angry and said: "I don't care, tell your queen that the one you kidnapped is mine, got it?!"
Suddenly, Dawson started laughing.
Kyson: "Why are you laughing?"
Dawson: "How can you threaten the queen when you've become a human's slave?"
Kyson grabbed a sword and attacked Dawson. A few people stepped in front of Dawson to protect him.
"Watch out, that vampire is very strong."
Robin looked in surprise and said: "Is he really going to save Justin?"
Kyson: "It doesn't matter how many of you there are, I owe the one who's in there, and I'll fight all of you if I have to!"
Kyson swung the sword with great speed to reach Justin.
Dawson: "What is this? How does he have so much power with those earrings?"
Kyson went to Justin and untied his hands.
Justin: "You came just in time, I'm glad to see you again." He laughed.
Kyson helped Justin to stand up.
Alan was stunned and said: "A vampire has come to save us..."
Justin: "Wait a minute, I'll take off the earrings."
Dawson: "Damn, the vampire is regaining his power!"
Kyson, along with Justin, stepped forward.
Dawson pointed at Robin and said: "Don't come any closer, if you use your power and attack us, this person will get hurt."
Suddenly, Kyson bit Justin's neck.
Robin shouted: "What are you doing?!"
Kyson: "I've set my sights on this person, tell your queen that if she wants to get him back, she'll have to face me first."
Dawson thought: "Damn, we don't stand a chance against him!" He clenched his fists tightly.
Suddenly, Kyson summoned bats to distract everyone.
Kyson: "Hurry up, bring the kid with you!"
Justin picked up Alan and went out with him.
Robin: "I owe you one, vampire." He smiled and ran away quickly.
Kyson smirked and said: "Finally, he was able to get along with me."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Justin had Alan on his back as he and Kyson went to return the boy to his father. Alan had fallen asleep.
Justin: "This time, you became my hope. Thank you."
Kyson: "Compared to the first time we met, it's nothing. Consider it payback for the last time you helped me."
Justin: "I told you, we are friends." He smiled.
Kyson chuckled softly and said: "Yeah, I guess that's what friendship is."
Justin stopped and said: "Do you really see me as your friend?"
Kyson looked at Justin and said: "I still don't understand it, but I want to try." He smiled.
Justin felt happy and said: "I'm glad to hear that, my friend." He smiled.
Kyson looked ahead and said: "Let's go, we need to get this boy back to his family."
Justin went to Alan's home to return him to his family. Kyson decided to watch from a distance.
Alan's father was happy to see Alan and said: "Alan, I'm glad to see you again!"
Alan ran into his father's arms and said: "I was so scared, I thought we would never see each other again." He cried.
Alan's father patted his head and said: "Don't worry, I'm here with you." He smiled.
Alan's father stood up and looked at Justin. Justin smiled.
Alan's father: "Thank you so much, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't know what to do."
Justin sighed and said: "It wasn't me, it's all thanks to that vampire standing over there." He pointed to Kyson.
Alan's father looked at Kyson and said: "A vampire?"
Kyson hid behind the wall.
Justin: "Sorry, he's too shy to come over here." He smiled.
Alan's father: "Anyway, I'm grateful to him. Whenever he wants, he can come to our restaurant, I'll give him free food." He smiled.

Kyson returned to the rented house with Justin. Mira hugged Kyson happily and said: "You succeeded, didn't you?"
Kyson: "Yes, pack your things, we're going back home."
Mira: "Really?!" She happily went to the room to pack her things.
Justin: "This journey was very hard for her, it's better not to bring Mira with us next time."
Kyson: "You're right, we were very lucky that nothing threatened her life this time."
Justin: "Yes, sorry, it's my fault."
Kyson: "It's okay, you did your best." He smiled.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The queen of the Ruby Kingdom was very angry that Dawson and his men had returned empty-handed. Dawson explained everything to her.
The queen gave a terrifyingly romantic smile and said: "A vampire dared to kidnap my valuable servant, huh?"
Dawson looked at the queen in fear.
The queen: "Bring that vampire along with Justin to me. It doesn't matter where or how, just bring him here." She chuckled softly.
