Re: A Hunting We Will Go (0.5.3)
Milo seemed a touch concerned. "Considering that he believes I am in danger, it may be in your best interest to hide until he has confirmed that I am not."
Thunder continued to roll in the east, a storm cloud gathered. Lightning streaked angrily through it... almost approaching the intensity (but not the magnitude) of the last major storm to strike New York.
Milo stepped out into Sal's yard and the group could feel the hairs raising on the back of their necks. Speaking became difficult as some sort of inaudible white noise began to interfere with speech...
a few moments later, that white noise could be identified as squeaking and flapping of wings. Thunder and bats filled the air, drowning out all speech as Dracula made his presence known.
The cloud sank suddenly as it made landfall, turning into lightning-laced fog and the bats crashed into the shore like a tidal wave, swarming the land with overwhelming force as a figure materialized from within. He wore a sword at his hip and crimson armor with a thin moustache and goatee, well groomed black hair, and an intense, predatory aura.
He observed the surrounding area imperiously as the lightning and bats began to disperse. Milo approached him hesitantly. "F-Father. I apologize for calling you out here. A friend of mine saved my life soon after I called you and I lost my phone-"
Milo's excuse was cut short as Dracula reached out with both hands, fast as lightning and pulled him to his chest. He wrapped one hand around Milo's shoulders and another around the back of his head for several seconds in a father/son hug before letting him go. "I would like to meet these friends of yours."
Milo nodded his head. "Yes, Father."
Milo began leading Dracula back toward Sal's estate. However, when Milo entered, Dracula stopped at the threshold of the door, waiting expectantly. Milo's eyes went wide as he turned to Sal. He didn't say anything but his hands were shaking slightly.
