"Seems we're hunting bloodsuckers," a silver haired knight offered. A man of house Schnee, unable to use the magic of his sister's. "Shall we, miss Rose?" "You have the stakes and silver, Lord Schnee?" the knight offered as she replaced her helmet. "Always," he smiled. He stabbed an oncoming vampire in the chest, the beast turning to ash. "Good. I suggest you keep up," the knight offered with a  hidden smirk before taking out a blade and starting to slash at some of the unholy horde. “One that slays the least buys the other a drink?”

The lord laughed. “I think you will be surprised at that one, Lady Rose.” It was his way of accepting the challenge. With the two in front, most of the beasts were slain in an instant, the ones behind them picking up the scraps.

A sudden roar erupted from the sky, a massive swirl of shadow visible in the starlit night. It crashed into the ground, a woman in a cloak staring down the warriors as her lackies fled to her side. Countess Salem had appeared. "Do we want to seal this wench or kill her?" Topaz muttered to the male Schnee. "Kill!" Lord Schnee roared. He charged forward on his horse, the woman only smirking as she held out her hand. With a single flick of her finger, his horse was sent into the sky, both it and it's master landing in the army. "If this is the Kingdom's finest, you'll all be suffering but a moment," she chuckled. "Amethyst- Tend to Argent!" Topaz called to one of her Siblings as flames seemed to lick her fingers. Forgive me for what I have done.... A woman in violet armor rushed her horse into the crowd. "Are you next, Topaz Rose?" She smiled, licking her lips. Topaz nodded. "Try me," she offered before charging the Countess. It wasn't long before the knight was soon a brassy gold wingless dragon. Her armor seemed to blend into her scales. Fangs were prevalent as red eyes were trained on the Countess. She gasped. "But how?! How can you shape shift like this?" Salem glided away from Topaz' jaw, just barely avoiding death. "An oath of Blood," Topaz answered as her claws came forward.

Most of the army was aghast at the sight of one of their knights just shifting into another beast.

Salem soon shifted herself, becoming a dragon shrouded in smoke as she ran to butt heads with this new form. "A blood pact with WHAT?!"

"My family's patron," Topaz answered. "I offered my own blood for my family and allies to be safe. As if some cruel joke- it seems I was made into one of your kind." She went to bite and scratch at the other dragon.

She hissed, backing off. "A vampire..."

"Lady Rose, it can't be true!"

Topaz skidded back before launching a fire ball at the shadow dwelling dragon. Her ears lowered slightly. "I wish it wasn't..."

She yelped, her body engulfed in flames. She turned back to her smaller form, growling. "Vampire killing flames..."

"They hurt like Hell to produce," Topaz offered as she shrunk down to her more 'human' state. "But it isn't my place to judge. I am only acting out my patron’s will."

"... we'll run for now, but my kind will fight... and we will have our rule!" She became a cloud of smoke, flying off as her minions followed after.

"I will swear upon the moon and as long as my family lives- you will not," Topaz uttered to the wind. She removed her helmet before looking back to the army that had followed her. The red of her eyes had tempered down to a pale lilac.

The soldiers backed up at her gaze. Amethyst approached on foot, Lord Schnee behind her. "You... became a bloodsucker to protect your family?" He asked.

"And those I considered allies. I will not and have not taken blood from anyone or the horses," Topaz offered. "As of right now I can still handle normal food..."

"But what about-" Amethyst removed her gauntlet. "I'm willing to assist with whatever necessary."

Topaz winced and backed away from her sister. "I cannot and I will not."

She held a dagger. "Sister. I must help where I can, and you will need blood."

"I do not want to feed from you or anyone in this army. I do not want to risk turning anyone else...." Topaz admitted.

"You can't turn me if I extract the blood." Amethyst replied to her sister adamantly.

"Doesn't that make you a blood lamb then, Amethyst?" asked another of the Rose clan.

"You know our Uncle has a point, sister," Topaz offered with a sigh. I wish that this hadn't been how things had turned out.... The fledgling vampire watched those around her. The warriors started to sheath their weaponry as Amethyst looked to their uncle. "But Uncle! I don't want her to starve!"

"Neither do I," he admitted. "She will have to feed eventually..."

"I'm fine right now," Topaz noted.

"But if you do loose your humanity and get blood frenzied- we will all be doomed," he replied.

"We must do something," Amethyst whimpered. There was worry in her voice. 

"Fine...." Topaz reluctantly agreed. "Just not too much... Okay, Amethyst." She prepared her dagger, only to be gripped by Argent. "If we're going to do this, we give her a goblet to drink from." "Mr. Schnee? Why are you..." "Topaz is our ally. We don't hunt allies." "Thank you Argent," Topaz offered.

The troops soon scattered to find a non-silver goblet. Argent nodded. "I'd be happy to donate my own blood to your sustenance. You mustn't die so soon after acquiring such power." Amethyst smiled. "Let's return to our home. Dawn will arrive soon." "I wouldn't mind returning home. And thank you for your offer Argent." Topaz gave a soft smile as she went to follow her sister. “And I don’t think I will die of starvation any time soon.” The many knights bowed to her passing, still regarding her as a great warrior. "Let's let the others know." "I pray that they take this as well as you all have," Topaz offered as one soldier, her squire, brought up a pewter cup. "I offer my own goblet for Lady Rose," he meekly offered.
