Maria looks and gasps. She takes her hand and kisses it gently saying, "Who could ever want to hurt or kill this sweetheart!?"<br/><br/>Garrison growls, "James...he is a bloody monster. You know of his plans, Maria."<br/><br/>"Yes, I know. I hope he pays especially hurting this darling.", she says and licks the cut on her hand. The wound heal over. Maria smiles at her saying, "Stay right here. I'll get you something  to drink."<br/><br/>Maria leaves quickly and Lucy is left alone with Garrison. He studies her before asking, "What happened? How'd you get kidnapped?"<br/><br/><br/><br/>He smiles and walks towards her to stroke her face.<br/><br/>"My beautiful girl..."<br/><br/>James then bursts in the room looking victorious.<br/><br/>"My king, my queen, my love", he greets the family, "I have great news!"<br/><br/>"What is it, James?", the queen asks and he answers her with, "I ended the war!"<br/><br/>The parents blink at him then look to Sasha. Her father looks confused, "How? I thou-"<br/><br/>"I killed of their general, Tylier", he boasted<br/><br/><br/><br/>10 minutes earlier<br/><br/>Tylier is running to the castle in rage mode. Every vampire that tries to stop him is met with a fury fueled death. He arrives at the gates and James is there waiting.<br/><br/>Tylier shifts and growls, "Where's my sister."<br/><br/>"In a rush?", he slyly says<br/><br/>"I am not going to negotiate. I want my sister back!", he roars and goes to launch himself at him.<br/><br/>"Ut! Better not. I have told a soldier of mine to kill her if he sees me dead. Now, will you be a good boy and listen?"<br/><br/>Tylier sneers but complies thinking it will keep his sister alive especially since he doesn't know where she's located.<br/><br/>"Good....now follow me.", he gestures with his finger and walks around the outside the gate. Tylier follows him to a cave a few meters away from the castle. Inside, someone imitates his sister's voice.<br/><br/>"Tylier?! Tylier, where are you?! I'm scared!!"<br/><br/>"Lucy!! Hold on!", Tylier shouts and pushes past James and deeper into the cave. Tylier was ready for everything and anything that came his way to fight just in case of an ambush. James chuckles, "Stupid mutt"<br/><br/>He has a few soldiers push a boulder in front of the entrance. The side of the boulder facing the inside is covered in silver. A precaution by James to make sure Tylier can't get out. James smirks in victory as Tylier faces vampires, rouge werewolves, and other obstacles to get to a false Lucy. James strolls to the castle smirking the whole way.
