• The woman had just got to the graveyard, brushing a branch aside to step. Immediately she felt the presence, turning to him with a slight smile. He sat, perched on a large tombstone. Lucas smile as he saw her approach. "Good to see you could make it. Now let's see you catch me." he jumped off the tombstone, and ran laughing through the fog filled graves. "I may be old my dear, but I can still chase." She whispered, seeing him run.

    The woman took off after him. She ran to the tombstone he was at, vaulting over it before she sprinted. Her speed was inhuman, the hair flying as she followed the sound of his heartbeat. He could feel her catching up. Lucas quickly dodged and jumped, then ran into an open tomb. Inside was a wall. The young man quickly wrote something into the wall, and vanished again.

    That which is the center of all.
    Good and Evil. great and Small
    That which is born or darkness and Light
    You shall find the beast that hides at night
    Speak my name, I shall no longer hide
    I touch all things, who am I?


    After a small chase she saw him dive into the tomb. Having no fear of death she dived in afterward, only to see a message on the wall. She let out a very old curse in anger, trying to decipher the clue.

    "What is it that touches all things...Beast?" She said, stumped. She sat on a small stone table and started to think about the puzzle. When she was a child she always hated puzzles, she was more of the kind to fight. But she wanted to win. "The Earth is the Center of all, the Heart is in good but not evil." She said, tapping her finger against her lips, "Could it be the Devil, or a demon of sorts?"

    The door slammed on the tomb, and Lucas grinned from his hiding place. "Maybe to much information is a bad thing..." His voice echoed throughout the room.

    "Tell me, what does light and darkness have in common? It is not evil, nor is it pure. It is the center."
    He laughed, and the lamp in the corner flickers.

    "tell me, what do people fear? What do people see and think is a monster?"

    She twisted as she saw the light, the tomb closing behind her. The Vampire's eyes twitched very subtle, looking at the door behind the burst of flame. She slowly closed her eyes, pretending to be thinking. But she wasn't. She was listening for his heartbeat to pinpoint his place.

    "People fear the darkness, the Shadows." She said, hoping that was right, or was enough to keep him talking.

    Lucas clapped his hands, and stepped out of the shadows. "Not bad. But that's one strike against you. Can you make it through without missing twice more?" He knocked on the wall, and it crumbled like dust. He walked through, still looking at her."Try and keep up. It can be a bit of a maze in the catacombs."
