I follow North to the Globe where the scream was echoed. I see a man draped in cloaks.  A man holding an elf looking pale as snow. Its skin was wrinkled. I draw back. The man turns to us. His mouth was open. I almost feel like puking. Baby Tooth lets out a shriek. I see his teeth. Sharp and covered in red. I see the blood dripping from his mouth.

"Oh, I'm sorry, was this one of yours?" He asks North.

"You are a... Вампир, no?" North asks.

"I am a creature of darkness, a vampire yes." He nods.

"What do you want?" North asks. 

"I want something that you have but isn't an object." He drops the elf's body.

I draw back.

'What do you want?" I ask.

"His father is quite unhappy perhaps it's because they killed each other and now walk the earth cursed or blessed, depending on your view." He says.

He walks forward. I draw back. North walks forward.

"The boy has no idea what he is. Or what he did, I hazard a guess." He says.

"What boy are you talking about??" I ask.

"The boy who walks this land wrapped in snow and ice." He says.

My eyes widen. Does he mean Jack? No, I don't believe him.

"The boy whose being lied to by Man in Moon." He turns to the moon.

"Alright, shut up with the riddles and give us the truth!" North yells.

"The truth is often right in front of us, it only takes a little looking." He says.

North charges. I charge as well. He transforms to smoke and shoots up into the sky. I let out a breath. What was that? I had thought vampires were defeated. We defeated Dracula centuries ago. He's been hiding in his castle and hasn't been seen since the 1600s. I look at North.

"What was that?" I ask.
