Golden Ages Part XII

Serena, Veronica and I all got things together and checked if Sis was not suffering from early damages to her head. As we land from out of the ship, I sense presence around, in response I winked at Sis and Serena quickly to be quiet. Flared red eyes are seen from a dense forest as we quietly walk with weapons out ready for any attackers that'll spring out. Serena wary of the surroundings picks up a scent.

Serena: Sis? *taps her shoulder* I sense vampire stalkers.
Veronica: *whispers* I know Sis, and I don't like it one bit. *stays alert*
Ace: *looks cautiously around* Serena there's vampire stalkers here?
Stalker: *jump kicks out from a nearby fern* damn blood suckers!
Veronica: *grabs the stalker's leg in mid air and cracks it in two* pathetic mortals.
Ace: Sis watch out!
Stalker: *winces in pain and limps away* you won't see the next sun rise!
Serena: *takes a pure Chaos dagger aims it precisely at his head and flings* bull's eye!
Stalker: *blood gushes out from his head as he tumbles to the ground gurgling*
Ace: *smiles* nice aiming Serena. *kisses her forehead*
Veronica: *senses another presence, uses her massive wings twists and slices a body hidden in some bushes* I knew someone was around. *continues onward*
Serena: *hugs me* thanks Ace! It wasn't much. *evil grins*
Ace: let's go Serena, things are getting a bit messy here. *looks at the two bodies already*
Vampyre: Veronica... *leaps from a tree draping his cape around him* I've finally found you...
Serena: *grins* you weren't lost were you? Die you traitor! *back crescent kicks into the Vampyre* take that!
Ace: *sends a massive Chaos blast into the direction of the figure* you certainly took you time, now burn in hell!
Vampyre: *brings his arms up, blocks the crescent kick and twists her leg* fools! *smirks* no I wasn't lost, just hidden and finally decided to show myself.
Veronica: you fiend, don't you dare touch my sister! *disappears and appears before Vampyre claws extended, as she reappears 5 slashes are across his chest*
Serena: *shrieks and as she falls sends 2 pure Chaos dagger into Vampyre's chest.*
Vampyre: *clutches at his chest and after suffering from severe cuts and fatal burns, collapses face forward*
Ace: *helps Serena up and drapes my cape protectively over her*
Veronica: *leaps and casts a golden Chaotic sphere around herself*
Vampyre: *green light sparkles across his body and explodes into a flaming inferno*
Ace: *unshields Serena after the explosion is distinguished* are you all right?
Veronica: *descends by Serena* Sis, did that jerk do anything to you?
Serena: *sniffs and holds onto Veronica* Sis I'm okay, just have a sprained ankle. *looks to me and smiles* I'm okay.
Veronica: *embraces onto Serena and winks* that was a bit nasty with those daggers Sis.
Serena: *winks back* that jerk deserved it. *giggles*
Ace: *hugs Serena and Veronica* let's get home Sis, we got lots to do. *smiles*

We continue forward through the forest leaving a trail of dead stalkers set ablaze in the night. A full moon lighten much of the way towards the huge castle up ahead as we rush forward. Serena and Sis half giggling and full of excitement leaps into the air full of joy of returning home. After all it was a most tiring day for them all, it's the least to expect for anyone. I look around the massive castle surprised and shock that my dear Sis have achieved so much in such a short time, where I hardly did anything since the time she disappeared from the family.

Ace: *sighs contentedly* Sis we finally reached your magnificent mansion, care to show me around? *giggles*
Serena: *smiles and holds onto Sis* Veronica, thanks for saving me again from Marisella.
Veronica: dear Sis, I'll never let a soul or anyone to ever hurt you again. *draws her close and embraces her tightly* Sis will be here for you. *smiles*
Ace: *in tears from the show of sisterly affections* lousy 20th century I suppose. *wipes tears away* sisters aren't this close in our time. *shakes head*
Serena: *flushes deep red* Oh...
Veronica: *blushes and lets go of Sis* Bro you know that isn't true. *nudges me and giggles*
Ace: *giggles and quiets down* why did this Marisella go after you and Serena?
Serena: *hugs me and smiles* well just know Sis and I are inseparable. *winks*
Veronica: It's a long stor- *doesn't get to finish*

Varkyle, Selece, Mike suddenly came down the stairs to greet us and to ask how do you say show them around the castle. Sis's answer was momentarily interrupted as we spoke of encounter with several enemies the trip home. Varkyle was in hysterics and finally calmed down when he lay eyes upon Veronica.

Varkyle: Veronica your highness, we meet again. *kneels to take her hand and kisses*
Veronica: *appears to blush and takes her hand quickly away from Varkyle* please Varkyle, mind your manners. *giggles* did you learn this from Bro?
Selece: *rushes from the stairs towards me* I'm so great to see you milord, I was so worried of you safety back. *hugs* Nothing else went wrong besides the brief encounters with the supernatural I hope. *giggles*
Mike: *pats my back and smiles* glad to see you back my friend, any news back home?
Ace: *hugs Selece* always glad to see you my dear, and I can handle the super naturals. *smiles and looks to Mike* strange you mentioned Mike, Lenora sent me a holodisk of my lovely daughters. *answers to Sis* no of course not Veronica, Varkyle is a gentlemen never the less. *giggles*
Varkyle: *nods to me* most true milord. *winks and asks Veronica* now milady may I ask care to show me where in this lovely castle is the baths or my room?
Serena: *giggles* Sis isn't Varkyle a true gentleman? *winks*
Mike: daughters Ace?! *smiles* congratulations to your new born milord.
Selece: *surprised at the news* milord, Lenora gave birth? *smiles warmly* how nice it is to have a family with the person you love. *sighs and begins to leave*
Veronica: *winks to Varkyle* why most certainly you may my knight in shining armor anytime. *smiles and offers her hand*
Ace: *nods to Mike* thank you my friend, may you have some healthy new born for yourself as well. *winks and watches Selece leave off in the distance*
Serena: Ace, what's wrong with Selece? *watches Selece go to the gardens*
Mike: *smiles and nods but notices Selece as well* milord may I be excused?
Varkyle: *takes Veronica's hand and escorts her to the dining hall* my pleasure your highness. *smiles*
Ace: you may proceed Mike, and tell me how she is later okay my friend? I fear she might hurt herself. *hugs Serena* Selece is heart troubled is all my dear. *sighs*
Mike: will do Ace. *rushes after Selece out the door towards the garden*
Varkyle: I as well excuse myself milord, I need some time with your sister. *winks and heads off with Veronica*
Veronica: *smiles and waves* night Bro, your room is on the second floor to the left. Take care and sleep well, love you Bro. *follows Varkyle occasionally giggling*
Serena: heart troubles? as in her health Ace?
Ace: *shakes head* Serena, she loves this person deeply but alas she can't have him.
Serena: Oh I see now, *sighs* so many times I've heard of this between lovers. *embraces me tightly*
Ace: *smiles and hold Serena* well you'll find someone don't worry about it, for now show me around the place since your sister is preoccupied with Varkyle.
Serena: *smiles* I know Ace, and I will show you around.

Serena showed me around the castle, first the lovely roman baths on the lower floor, then the dining hall main floor, armory upper floor, several bed chambers and the lush garden at the end. After a long day from all the places of the castle we took a long stroll in the garden by a lovely fountain.

Serena: *grabs a leave and fans herself* it's so hot tonight. Ace: *nods* I've noticed myself *changes into my normal human form* Oooh, this feels so much better.
Serena: *takes her blouse off and dips into the fountain playing with the water* this is so cold! *smiles and splashes water at me*
Ace: *gets splashed and giggles* hey there Serena, that isn't fair! *gets a handful of water and splashes her*
Serena: *shrieks and giggles* you're wet! *floats in the fountain*
Ace: silly Serena. *lies on the side of the fountain and rests* lovely night.
Serena: yes indeed it's a lovely night. *sighs contentedly*
Ace: *smiles* Serena, you mentioned a lover before how is he?
Serena: *swims over by my side* my lover? *shakes head* he's been long gone.
Ace: he's somewhere else Serena?
Serena: no, he's dead. *sobs and lowers her head to her arms*
Ace: sorry to bring bad memories Serena. *kisses her forehead*
Serena: *sniffs* it okay, Ace. *smiles a bit*
Ace: *lowers head to hers* you have lovely eyes you know? *smiles*
Serena: *blushes and giggles* thanks for cheering me up Ace. *wraps arms around me and tightly hugs*
Ace: you're wet Serena!
Serena: so are you! *laughs*

The night passes away as we play around the fountain, Serena soon grew sleepy and I end up carrying her back to the castle. As we return to her chambers she continuously murmurs in her sleep a name by "Serith". I then recall Serena mentioning her lover and thinks "so that's who" then softly places her down upon the bed and pulls the covers over. When done I left her room and went to wander in the halls towards the dining hall, where I see Selece, Varkyle, Mike and Veronica having dinner.

Veronica: *has a various assortments of food on plate* Bro! *bolts up from her seat and rushes over* where have you been? where's Sis? *hugs onto me tightly*
Selece: *smiles a bit* welcome back Ace. *waves from across the table*
Varkyle: *gets up and bows* welcome back milord. *winks* your sister was best of company.
Mike: *gestures an empty seat by Veronica and him* here Ace, take a seat! *smiles*
Ace: *smiles and hugs Sis tightly* Serena and I just took a tour around the castle and played in the garden by a fountain. *nods to Mike and takes a seat by him and Sis* thank you all for welcoming me back. *smiles*
Veronica: *tilts her head and giggles* playing in the fountain? oh, so where is Sis now Bro?
Ace: *brings glass to my lips* Sis, Serena is asleep upstairs in her chambers.
Varkyle: *wraps an arm around Veronica's waist* I hope everything went well milord on your walk in the gardens.
Selece: *sips on a glass of carrot juice* Ace... *plays with her food with no appetite*
Mike: something wrong Selece? *looks to her across from him*
Veronica: *blushes and whispers to Varkyle* don't get too comfortable now. *winks*
Ace: Selece yes? *forks some noodles onto my plate*
Selece: *quickly turns before anyone notices she blushing embarrassingly and whispers* yes milord?
Varkyle: *releases her and picks a piece of beef to Veronica's lips* open wide my love.
Selece: *blushes profoundly* nothing is wrong Mike. *scoops some noodles to her mouth and munches*
Ace: *spoons some vegetables onto my plate* Selece, didn't you call me awhile ago?
Veronica: *blushes and resists to slam Varkyle's head* Varkyle hush would you? *opens wide and eats the piece of beef* tasty beef, got to thank the chef.
Mike: Ace, you must of heard wrong, Selece didn't call you. She called me. *smiles*
Selece: *nods frantically and nervously answers* I... I.. called Mike, sorry milord. *resumes to eat*
Varkyle: *looks to me* you didn't hear anything did you milord? *sweat drops*
Ace: *looks to Varkyle* you said what to Veronica?
Veronica: now Bro, calm down. *lowers head with embarrassment*
Mike: *winks to Selece and resumes to eat*
Ace: *thinks* all right Selece. *waits for Varkyle to answer* well?
Varkyle: *whispers nervously* milord, I declared my love for your sister.
Veronica: *blushes and slams her elbow into Varkyle* Bro it's not true, he's not thinking what he's saying, yeah that's it! *smiles innocently*
Ace: *smiles and grasps at Varkyle's shoulder* that's great to hear! *looks to Veronica with a disapproving look* no need to lie Sis. *giggles*
Varkyle: *face faults* you approve of us together?!
Veronica: Bro?! *face faults* why you approve of him so fast? Don't you usually shoot my suitors right down in the beginning?
Ace: *hugs Sis tightly with tears flowing* Sis you're a grown lady now, you can choose whom you love, just tell me if he hurts you. I'll be there to decapitate him *nods to Varkyle* yes I approve, just don't hurt her.
Mike: yeah Ace, why approve so quickly this time? *sips on his glass of red wine*
Varkyle: *shallows and answers* I won't hurt her milord.
Veronica: *sniffs* yes Bro, thank you for making me happy all those times we've shared. We still have lots to catch up on, as for Varkyle I'll notify you Bro. *winks*
Selece: congratulations Veronica and Varkyle, you two make a great couple.
Ace: Mike my dear friend, I believe in Varkyle's feelings towards Sis. *smiles* now with this new joining let's celebrate! *raises glass into the air* cheers!
Selece: *raises glass* cheers!
Mike: *raises glass* cheers!
Varkyle: *gets up and bows* thank you milord. *bends Veronica over and kisses her deeply* I love you, Veronica.
Veronica: *wraps her hands around his neck and deepens the kiss* as I love you, Varkyle. *tears drips from her eyes*

We ate in silence while the new couples kissed and fed each other various foods upon their plates. Later that night after dinner was finished and dessert was served, several female vampires appeared by the table as we were drinking tea. The vampires approached Veronica and said several words to their Empress, while she merely acknowledged and told them that they were excused for the night. After tea and delicious dessert was finished, Veronica wraps her arms around Varkyle and left the table.

Ace: *watches Veronica leave* did anyone over hear what they were saying while we had dessert?
Mike: Ace, this does look suspicious and sorry I didn't over hear anything.
Selece: *deep in thought* milord I over heard something, but I must think to make sure if it was exactly what they said.
Ace: *thinks* Sis was awfully in a hurry to run off with Varkyle.
Mike: *giggles and winks* come on Ace, you must understand they must of been so aroused they had to go to their room and make love.
Selece: *rolls her eyes and slaps Mike* Hentai!
Ace: *grabs a tea bag and hurls it at Mike's face* Veronica's hormones are normal unlike yours, better make it a habit not to say things about people's sexuality.
Mike: *gets slapped and a tea bag in his mouth* it was a possibility. *lowers head*
Selece: *perks up* I remember now Ace! One of the vampires spoke of a hostage they caught by the garden fountain, it was apparently a female so they locked her up somewhere in the castle.
Mike: female? Nani? does that mean if they found a male some where around the area they'll kill him?
Ace: *hugs her tightly* thank you Selece. *sips on a cup of tea* now we must get Serena to show us where they keep the prisoners.
Selece: *nods* probably Mike, so don't wander around. *laughs*
Mike: you're so cruel Selece. *pouts*

Mike, Selece, and I quickly left the dining hall and towards upstairs to Serena's sleeping chambers. I approached the two female vampires guarding Serena's chambers, exchanged some conversation and entered the door. Mike and Selece follows in and takes a seat on the couch while I go awaken Serena.

Ace: *approaches bed* Serena? *notices covers are uncovered*
Selece: Ace... *giggles and points towards the sound of water* Serena is in the shower.
Mike: yep Ace of course she's not in the bed, if she's in the bathroom.
Serena: *singing in the shower* "I'm everything I'm am, because you loved me..."
Ace: *knocks on the door* Serena?
Serena: *shrieks* Ace?! What are you doing in my bedroom?
Selece: *giggles softly to herself* Mike and I are here too!
Mike: we're just here to accompany Ace. *smiles and laughs*
Ace: *sweatdrops* Serena, I over heard Sis saying there's a hostage within the castle.
Serena: *comes out with a towel around her body, her vampire wings covering herself* so Sis was notified of a hostage within our castle, why are you so worried Ace?
Selece: yep I never thought of that either, why so worried milord?
Mike: Ace is always worried about something Selece. *giggles*
Ace: Serena it's a feeling I must go see this hostage, can you take me to where you keep your prisoners?
Serena: *blushes and smiles* Ace I would love to show you around, but not dressed like this! Now please, excuse me but I got to dress.
Mike: *nods* sorry your highness. *rushes out the door*
Selece: *smiles* your highness may I stay and help you with your hair?
Ace: *changes form into Karla* female sorceress at you service your highness. *giggles*
Serena: *facefaults and giggles* Ace!! *hugs* you're silly.
Selece: *shocked* milord? milady? *giggles* you are extreme in helping I suppose.
Ace: *twirls and smiles* not bad right?
Serena: *takes a seat in front of the mirror and begins combing her hair* Selece and Ace you may help me with my hair. *giggles softly to herself*
Selece: yes your highness. *begins to fix Serena's hair* soft lovely hair you have, Serena.
Ace: *smiles and tends to Serena's hair* yes your highness, now where do you keep your prisoners milady?
Serena: *smiles* why thank you Selece, *tilts her head back* Ace-chan you silly I almost forgotten, I'll take you there after my hair is done.
Selece: *curls and braids Serena's hair* well milady how do you like what you see?
Ace: *smiles* thank you Serena.
Serena: *excitingly answers and twirls her hair in the mirror* it's lovely and it feels so fresh. *hugs* thank you Selece.
Selece: *smiles* glad you like it.
Ace: *giggles* I'm jealous Serena, now let's go.
Serena: *blushes and giggles* Ace!! yes we'll go now, follow me.

Serena, Selece, Mike and I all heads for the lower chambers of the castle after Mike asked a few questions with an occasional weird glances towards me. We went down like 4 flights of stairs and through the torture chamber before arriving to the front gates of the cell rooms. Serena says a couple of things before we went in.

Serena: Ace-chan the female that was captured is in the last cell to our right. Surprising enough was that we haven't received much prisoners lately and she was our first one we caught in a long time.
Selece: *giggles* figures that most don't survive right Serena?
Ace: no prisoners Serena? how so?
Serena: *giggles and nods to Selece* well most learned not to get on the wrong side of Veronica, she taught quite a lesson to many.
Ace: *nods* I see.
Selece: *surprised* oh I see. *smiles*
Serena: Ace, your sister is a force to be reckoned with. *nods* well here we are.
Girl: *screams between sobs* Let me out of here!! *twirls her cape and slices into the cell door* I didn't do anything!!
Ace: a wild one I see Serena.
Selece: is she okay Serena? was she injured?
Serena: by what the female vampires said was she was found by the castle rather suspiciously looking around the area. I'm not so sure if she was injured by the resistance.
Selece: *looks into a window on the cell door* she looks like a cute little vampire, Serena.
Serena: she does Selece? *looks in over her shoulder* she is a cute little vampire, green eyes and a lovely figure of a body too.
Ace: a female vampire? Serena are sure you're able to contain her inside? and ladies may I see?
Girl: *claws into the door* let me out! *sobs* Mommy, daddy where are you?
Serena: oh sorry Ace, yes the cell should hold her and here have a look.
Selece: *stands aside* here Ace, you did want to see the prisoner.
Ace: *changes back to a male and looks into window* Deandra?! Daddy is here my daughter. *looks to Serena* quick open the door!
Serena: *opens the door* she did look familiar after all I saw her on the holo disk.
Selece: Ace your daughter? how did she get here? *looks between Deandra and I*
Deandra: *looks to me* daddy is that you? *wipes her tears away*
Ace: *rushes to her and embraces* dear daughter, I received mommy's holodisk of you and Lilith. why are you here and how did you get here? *nods to Selece* yes she's my daughter, Lenora gave birth to twins back home.
Selece: *weeps at the emotional scene* congratulations Ace.
Deandra: daddy! I've finally found you. *sniffs and holds onto me tightly* I'm so scared, where am I daddy? *shakes her head* I don't know how I got here myself daddy...
Ace: awww... poor dear you're safe now. *smiles and wraps my vampire wings around her*
Serena: awww how cute, evenings little one. *giggles and waves to Deandra*
Deandra: *cautiously waves back and whispers to me* daddy who is that lady?
Ace: *whispers into her ear* she is my sister's Sis-Serena.
Serena: *tilts her head* Deanrda is something wrong? I won't hurt you.
Deandra: *giggles* hello silly lady.
Selece: *bows and smiles* evenings your highness.
Ace: my dear daughter as to your question earlier, you're in Planet Transylvania. My dear sister-Veronica's Empire, remember to behave now. *smiles*
Deandra: *shrieks and sends a bolt of lightning just barely zapping Selece* who's there? *looks to Selece bowing* Oh! my apologies... *giggles* evenings to you too lady.
Selece: *giggles softly and leaps away* you're reactions are quiet quick little Empress of Chaos. *smiles*
Ace: no playing with fire now my daughter, how's mommy?
Deandra: *spreads her vampire wings and takes to the air above me* Mommy? she's home with Lilith, that's the last time I saw them before I found myself in a lovely garden daddy. *looks curiously around*
Mike: *silently watches the whole scene* greetings little Empress of Chaos. *does a sweeping bow and waves to Deandra*
Serena: *surprised at Deandra's vampire wings* you have wings little one?
Deandra: *giggles* sorry Selece, it's a force of habit of my reactions. *turns her head to me* where are we going? *nods to Mike* evenings to you kind sir. *smiles and waves to Mike*
Ace: *smiles* Deandra you sure are sharp, did mommy teach you the ways of Chaos? hmmm... we're going to our chambers for bed my dear. Unless you have somewhere else to go in mind.
Deandra: *smiles and giggles* Serena we Chaos vampires are just born with wings, I suppose you Vampyres don't possess such wings? Another thing your highness I'm not little as you think I am. *shakes head towards me* it's okay daddy, I'm rather tired plus I need a shower. *giggles*
Selece: it's okay your highness. *smiles*
Ace: Serena you didn't know we Chaos vampires possess wings? *spreads my wings and takes into the air holding Deandra*
Mike: Ace congratulations again on your new born and the heirs to the Chaos Empire. *smiles* I wish Alleria wanted children...
Deandra: *giggles and unfolds her wings in my embrace* weeeee!!! *smiles happily and snuggles*
Selece: *ascends into the air* milord I bit you a restful night. *smiles and flies off*
Ace: *smiles happily* Lenora is the one who should receive thanks after all she gave birth to two healthy daughters. I'm so proud of them already, look how they've grown Mike. *giggles and winks* don't worry Mike, Alleria will adore children.
Serena: *pouts* hey no fair!!! *watches us from below* I'll go to bed myself too Ace, night Deandra!
Mike: *floats by my side* I must too go to bed milord, night Ace!
Ace: *giggles* night Serena! *waves to her from the sky* and Deandra is fast asleep. *smiles and waves* night Mike!
Deandra: *sleeps in my arms* daddy...
Ace: poor dear, you're so tired. Rest my dear daughter. *descends into the main hall*

I carry Deandra to my chambers and before I enter the door, I heard soft moaning coming from the door next to me. Well knowing Sis is on the left side of my room I can only guess what Sis and Varkyle are doing. Not wanting to interrupting Sis and Varkyle I tap Deandra's shoulder to awaken her to go to the roman baths in the lower floors for her bath.

Deandra: *stirs and smiles* daddy are we home?
Ace: no my dear, you said you wanted a shower so go downstairs where there's a huge pool to take a bath okay?
Deandra: okay daddy. *spreads her wings and flies off*
Ace: take care Deandra. *waves*
Veronica: *in her room moaning in ecstasy* Oh Varkyle be gentle! *giggles*
Varkyle: you are so lovely my love. *in a teasing voice* Oh I'll be gentle when I enter you my horny siren.
Veronica: *moans* Oh you make me so hot and I want you now Varkyle.
Varkyle: *in a teasing voice* I'll make you all hot and wanting more when I'm done with you.
Ace: *taps on the door* Sis and Varkyle you two won't mind to moan a little quieter and less noise? My daughter needs her beauty sleep when she is done with her shower.
Veronica: *shrieks* Bro?! Varkyle open the door for Ace can you please?
Varkyle: Okay hold up Ace, I'll be out in a sec.
Ace: I'm sorry for interrupting your passionate love making, but Selece, Deandra and I need sleep. I understand the desires you have between each other, it's a natural thing.
Varkyle: *opens the door* come in milord. *bows* I'm sorry for being a bit loud to disturb you and your daughter's sleep.
Veronica: *quickly pulls the covers over herself* Varkyle no baka! you could of wait until I was dressed too you know! *blushes embarrassingly*
Ace: Varkyle, it's okay I'm sorry to interrupt. My daughter had been captured so she's awfully stressed and needs sleep.
Varkyle: *winks at Veronica* what's to hide? you have a lovely slender body any female would die for!
Veronica: *speechless and blushes deeply* Varkyle, Bro is here... *looks to me* Bro sorry for being so noisy, you know how I am.
Ace: *nods* yes I know Sis, *shakes head and giggles* my daughter Deandra is here and just tonight she needs her beauty sleep, you can make love another night or do it a bit quieter right Sis?
Varkyle: milord, your daughter is here? *yawns*
Veronica: *turns deep red* Bro!!! *lowers head to hide her embarrassment* yes Bro, Varkyle was a bit horny tonight so I figured you know... *thinks and decides to not answer* I'll wait.
Ace: thank you Sis. *smiles* night Sis.
Varkyle: *nods frantically to hide his flushed red face* No problem milord, Veronica and I...
Ace: *nods to Varkyle* No need to explain I understand, and anyway you need sleep I'll tell you about my daughter later. Night Varkyle.
Veronica and Varkyle: *smiles and waves* night Ace!
Ace: *heads into the chamber and sleeps*
