As He grabbed her she clinged on when they teleported, having never done it before it was a bit of a strange experience for her. Appearing under the waterworks she stepped away from him after making sure she was on solid ground. Looking around she hardly noticed as he placed his hand on the rock, and only noticed it as he began to drift away from her. She followed him, catching up with him easy and standing by his side till they reached the room. It was the most expensively decorated room that she had ever seen, and she had wandered through many homes and castles in her long life time. When he offered her a seat she smiled and wandered over, sitting down and looking again around the room. It was big, big enough for atleast 4 people to stay in comfortably. Holding out her hand she made 2 wine glasses full of a deep, rich red colored liquid appear and held one out to Dracula, thinking carefully about his question.
"Well... I remember you, I remember my parents, I remember my first day there... when I met you! It was in the streets remember? Me and my parents were walking along the road on our way to our flat when I accidently walked into you..."
She smiled at the memory, taking a sip of the metalic looking red liquid.

"Heh, ah, yes, thank you for reminding me... its been... too long... too many years of isolation..." Dracula added swirling the mixture of wine in the glass as he let out a somewhat fatigued yawn as he sits back down.

((Who said it was wine? lol!))
Tara smiled at him, placing her glass on the side before leaning back in the chair. She watching him as he yawned and realised he was probably tired, after all unline Tara he probably didn't stay awake for a few days before finally resting down for a day long sleep. She sighed slightly,
"You're tired..."
She commented, feeling stupid for pointing out the obvious,
"You should get some sleep... don't worry, I'll still be here when you wake!"
She said, smiling at him.

"Naw, its not that... Just, thinking" Dracula stated as he closed his eyes as a somewhat force field enveloped him as a few ghouls appeared to watch over him.

Tara stood and stepped back uneasily as the ghouls appeared, having been shocked by their sudden appearance in the room. She picked up her glass and walked over to another seat, further away from the ghouls and sat down, watching Dracula with interest in his forcefield. She sipped quietly at her drink, watching the ghouls carefully.

As Dracula 'slumbered' the ghouls around his seal watched Tara for any sudden moves, yet although They wouldnt harm he they wanted to make sure.

After a while Tara realised he wasn't probably going to be returning for a while. She stood up, her eyes watching the ghouls as she did so and walked back to the table, downing the rest of her drink and placing the glass down. She turned back and walked around the room, looking for anything she could do. She stopped besides a wall and looked up to where 2 swords hung in a cross upon the wall. Glancing back at the ghouls she reached up and grabbed one of the swords, bringing it down and holding it infront of her. She examined the blade, running her finger along it. It wasn't very sharp so did not draw any blood, and it was incredibly light which proved it wasn't supposed to be used for fighting. Sighing she grabbed the other sword and through it to one of the Ghouls,
"I wonder how easy it would be to take you down..."
She thought allowed, smirking at the ghoul before taking one step towards him and swinging the sword in her hand out at him, aiming to hit him in the side, but knowing he would block.

After the swing the ghoul stood there without flinching to her swing, letting out a cackle the ghouls dispersed in a fog as the force field around Dracula dispersed as he woke up. "And attacking my children so they be yours.." Dracula replied as he stepped up from his sleeping position.

As the ghouls dispensed and she saw Dracula awake she quickly hid the sword behind her back, trying to look innocent as he stood and looked at her. She smiled slightly at his comment, unable to help herself.
"Well... I didn't like the way he... she... IT was looking at me!"
She replied, still attempting to look innocent,
"And... I did give it something to defend itself with!"
She continued, signalling to the other sword that now layed on the floor.

"True their mindless although they dont have much to do... they were more or less the innocent guards..." Dracula responded knowing tara would chuckle a bit from his comment as he stretched from a sort of longated sleep. "Now that im fully rested where would you like to explore in the castle?" Dracula responded knowing all the secrets of the palace, even the creatures that dwell inside its halls.

Tara giggled, shaking her head,
"Innocent?"
She repeated, placing her hand over her mouth and biting her lip to try and stop the laughter. At his question she shrugged, looking around the room,
"I don't know... anywhere you think I wouldn't have seen before on my many adventures!"
She replied, stepping closer and smiling up at him, ready for him to teleport them somewhere.

"Alright than lets show you the true beasts of this palace... Follow me to the waterways." Dracula replied as he stepped out of the room. leading down lengthy corridors in the damp dark tunnels underneath his keep they came upon a solid door, water up to their shins as he looked back at Tara. "Ready to see the first?" He replied as he looked back studying her posture.

Tara followed him closely, not wanting to be left behind, especially seeing as they were in a part of the castle she hadn't ever seen before. As they stepped into the water Tara stopped, looking down at the bottom of her trousers. She wasn't to keen on getting them wet, but she had an idea. In her hands appeared 10 little pins, and she bnt down and pinned the bottoms up, just high enough to avoid the water she was about to step into. After that she ran after Dracula, only just being able to see him in the distance, but she was careful not to displace the water too much. As they reached the door Tara stood a few steps back from him, and nodded in reply to his question,
"I'm ready!"
She said, glancing around and in a way wishing she had brought the sword with her.

"All right." Dracula replied as his hands hit a switch as the sounds of thousands of gears begun to churn within the catacombs. As the door slowly sunk up the stench of decay filled the air as more water was dispersed out among the hallway. With a small visible platform in the middle of a seemingly empty pool of deep water dracula stepped forward on the platform as he glanced back at tara.

Tara followed him, stepping onto the platform and trying to ignore the smell that seemed to envelop them. She stood close to Dracula or comfort and protection as she looked around. There was no sign of movement around her, or none that she could see and she took in a deep breath, ready for whatever the creature was to attack, or atleast show itself.
"Well... where is it?"
She asked Dracula quietly, her eyes staring out in the darkness as she listened carefully for any sound that could signal the disturbance of the water around them.
