There was a large, dark, decaying mansion placed unceremoniously in the middle of a large green forest, it was well hidden away from civilization. No one that would come by would think that anyone would live in there, since the outward appearance was so disheveled, but unbeknown to that narrow-minded persona whole pack of lives were hiding in that building that was not entirely fit to be named as a home.
A brown haired man sat silently in a large den by himself on an old worn out couch, looking over his shoulder out of a broken window at some trees, a soft smile gracing his lips as it usually did. He was in his late twenties, 5'11, had an athletic body build and calm, calculating grey eyes. He looked away from the window and around the room, it was dusty and smelt stale, but he didn't mind, it had a warm feel to it for some reason. Letting out a quiet sigh he stood and made his way out of the room, walking down the hall, it was ominously quiet in the mansion, it was quite nerve-wrecking really.
The man, Vess, shook his head and combed one hand back through his tousled locks and grinned a little, he had a feeling that today was going to be quite... Surprising, and that wasn't just because a dining room chair had just came flying out of the one of the rooms and smashed into the wall directly in front of him. Sighing happily he side stepped the furniture and kept walking. Surprising day indeed... Vess thought and chuckled warmly.

Damon had landed in a precarious area where should a slayer had found him, no one would know he had died. The sun was finally setting, and relief shook Damon to his very core. As the sun dipped its cruel rays behind the trees and mountains, permitting the night to shine its blessing on him, the cold stone that ecompassed his body broke appart and fell to the ground in a low crunch, before vanishing. He ran a hand through his mop of messy black hair and stood, patting the dust off.
His red eyes flickered to the intriguing mansion he'd landed near. Sniffing, he knew someone or something was inside, and curiousity got the best of the Gargoyle. He approached the building silently and stepped inside.

There was complete silence once again inside of the large mansion, then suddenly something could be heard being smashed and then shattered completely and a man was running down the grand staircase that was in front of Damon. The man was laughing and apparently running away from something, he got to the bottom of the staircase and went to start running again but skidded to a halt and stared at Damon, he stopped laughing but grinned still and straightened himself up, fixing his clothing and making his way over to where the gargoyle stood. "And how do you do this fine evening, stranger?" He questioned quietly, his arms crossed over his chest and his head tilted to the side.

Damon took a step back at the laughter. Ghosts? No, it was...It was a guy. Damon blinked and looked around, before answering the question. "I'm...I'm fine, I suppose. How're you, stranger?" he answered, taking a step foreward and extending his hand to share acquaintences with each other.
~Meanwhile~
"Zack, we're lost," Kaelyn said, shooting him a dirty look. "Not lost, just happily misplaced," he corrected her with a prod to the side. SHe squeaked and shot him another dirty look. "We're lost."

The white and black haired man stuck out his hand and gripped onto Damon's, giving it a firm shake and then releasing it. "I'm magnifiecent, thanks for asking." Creed rubbed his naked chest, scratching at his abdomen lazily and frowing a little, it had gotten quiet again. "Mm, that's not a good sign..." He muttered to himself and looked down at his pants, patting them down a little and then straightening out his belt. "Are ya' gonna stay for the night? I recommend that you do, we're quite nice people you see... Except for one of us, but you can ignore him, his sunny disposition was yanked away a long time ago." Creed ranted and patted Damon on the shoulder in a friendly way.
Wheeler just so happened to be sitting up in a tree above the Zack and Kaelyn, he looked down and hummed softly, his eyes half-lidded and sad looking, he sighed softly and hopped out of the tree, landing on his feet. "You're lost?" He asked the two of them once they noticed him, his voice was very quiet and not close to being mean or frightening in any way possible.

Damon nodded. "Well...THanks, that'd be highly appreciated," he said and looked around. "Can...I get a tour of this place?"
Zack and Kaelyn looked at him and nodded. "Yeah...We...We're lost," Zack said, looking Wheeler over. "Mind showing us a way out or something?"

"A tour? Well... I dunno about that... I think'd be better if you just wandered around and found things by yourself. By the way, my name is Creed. And... It's quiet again... Not a good sign... I gotta run pal, but don't worry, some'll cross your path." Creed said and ruffled Damon's hair before quickly disppearing from the large front entrance way. There was sounds upstairs suddenly of banging and smashing, but yet again it would suddenly stop and go silent, it was disconcerting.
Wheeler sighed sadly and looked at the two of them, frowning a little. "I apologize, but it'd take hours to get you out, and the night is dangerous in this forest, you'll have to come to the mansion for the night." He whispered and looked the two of them over before turning and starting to walk in the direction of the mansion, he was graceful and quiet, he wasn't a very assertive guy.

Damon watched the man run and scratched his head in confusion, before moving about on his own.
Kaelyn looked at the submissive male. "Oh...Well, that's nice of you," she said, grinning. Her short brown hair fluttered in the breeze as she started to catch up with him. "My name is Kaelyn. This is my friend, Zack-" "Zack the amazing." "...Zack, the amazing," she said, eyes rolling at his random moment of cockiness.

Wheeler just sighed quietly in response and continued his walk, his eyes trained on the ground and a frown still covering his lips. "I'm Wheeler, I know... Not a great name..." He muttered and rubbed the side of his head, his eyelids drooped down more. Kaelyn and Zack seemed cheerful, it was rather depressing really. Shaking his head he hurried up more, they were close to the mansion anyways, but it'd be nice to get their as soon as possible.

Zack made a puckered-up face. He was so...Depressing. Talk about a buzz kill for the happily misplaced folks. He looked to Kaelyn who seemed unaffected by the man's demeanor. She walked with Zack behind Wheeler, watching them silently until they came upon a run down mansion. "Wow," Zack mumbled. "This is quaint. I bet we'll find some coffins and other vamps in there," he joked, but then Kaelyn nudged him. "You do realize that their scent is all over the place, right?" she asked him. Zack puckered up again and sniffed. "...Why did I sire you again? You keep making me feel lousy," He mock-pouted before jabbing her side and giggling as she squeaked. "Thanks for showing us this place, Wheeler," he added a moment later.
~Meanwhile~
Lilly was about half a mile shy of the mansion, pulling some glass shards and pricker-plant particles out of her bare feet. She'd gotten free from slavery courtesy of the Church about two months ago, but it had inadvertently had consequences. Like the deep cross burn scar on her back now. The young vampiress (four years old) stood and patted her too-large guy jeans off. She only had the set of clothes she wore now. She could smell other vampires nearby, and hoped they'd let her feed...She'd been raised in a different vampire family, and fed from other vampires, instead of humans. She started to walk that way.

"Don't worry about it... Mm... It seems like we've got another guest besides you two that will be staying the night." He whispered and opened the large door of the mansion and let them inside before following them in. He looked around for a moment and combed a hand back through his very near to white coloured hair. "Shall you be sharing a room or having seperate rooms?" Wheeler questioned, already beginning to head up the ground staircase to show them where they'd be sleeping.

"Whatever you have available would be nice, it doesn't matter much," Kaelyn answered and smiled at him. "THanks again." Zack looked around as they walked. "This place would be absolutely lovely if someone would fix it up..."
Lilly reached the back of the mansion and knocked on the door, hoping a vampire would answer so she could explain her predicament. One month with almost no vampire blood was trying on a young body, and her human body had already been weak enough.
~Meanwhile~
Xavier was loading his trailer up with tools for cleaning, fixing, and other various home-model necessities. There was a mansion in the woods he had walked by once and it was now his latest project. No one lived there, that he was aware of, so it'd be all fine to fix up. He hopped in his truck and drove down the road and headed towards the forest.

The man hummed and listened to them, nodding his head a little and then showing them upstairs and taking them down a hall, there was quite a few old destroyed paintings and other atr works hanging around there. Wheeler stopped in the middle of the hallway. "You may use these two rooms, if you need something i'm sure you'll be able to stumble upon someone that would help you." He explained after gesturing to wards two doors that were across the hall from one another.
Sidhe heard the knock on the door and left the downstairs living area and went to the front door, she found it odd how many people were coming around. She sniffed, smelling vampire and opened the door, looking at Lilly with half lidded eyes. "Good evening." The woman greeted, looking Lilly over and then smiling at her.

Kaelyn and Zack departed and went into their respective rooms to explore.
Lilly knew what the beautiful vampiress before her probably saw: a small and young vampiress with dirty mens' clothing, no shoes, and plenty of other interesting physical characteristics. Her green eyes flickered over the petite form for a moment before she dropped to her knees and pressed her face to the floor, her hands in front of her. "Good evening, Miss," she answered and swallowed. "Please, I'm...I'm starving. Could I feed...from...one of the vampires within this home?" She kept her head down, incase the woman told her to scat.

Her eyes widened a little in surprise and she thought about it. "You feed from other vampires? How strange... Mm. I'm sure Vess wouldn't mind at all. But before you feed, you're going to have a bath, usually I wouldn't allow such a filthy young girl in here, but you've got such beautiful eyes." Sidhe replied, her voice was whimsical, she had decided this just because of Lilly's eyes. But really, it wasn't her decision who came in and out of the home, it was Vess' decision, and Vess allowed everyone in. "Come on, get up and come inside. And don't do that anymore, if Requiem caught you doing something like that he'd freak out." She said and turned on her heels, flipping her hair over one of her shoulders and moving more into the house, leaving the door open for Lilly to come in.
