10 [10]Let's make a Deal
Currently I am walking through the streets of Romania and back to my inn room. Today I've been going on an espionage rampage on all my castle targets, tough I becAme a bit more carefully because of yesterdays Gremory accident.
Sadly none of them were it.
I still have a few places to go so I'll check them out tomorrow morning.
As I kept walking I suddenly I felt a mana fluctuation coming from somewhere.
That alley.
I approached the alley as I took out [Lumina]
I quietly approached while in the shadows.
"Hah, fucking vampires" said one of the three man in black coats.
"Yeah, good thing this one was an easy hunt" said the second as he kicked the body of the small vampire.
It looked small and had short blond hair, it also looked kinda girlie...
Yeah that Gasper.

I'm the dead of night three vampire hunter were talking while letting the vampire they had cough, slowly die.
"So how's the wife doing Johny" asked the first hunter.
"Not much just-" before he could speak, a lond bang sounded out behind him, blowing his brain into splatters.
The other two hunters widened their eyes in horror.
The hunters body dropped to the floor, revealing a long hair kid holding out a gun that was obviously the weapon used to kill their comrade.
Both huntets immediately drew their weapons but black wolves that had comed out of their shadows, bited their necks off with a splur of blood into the air.
"Good job boys" said Otto as he looked at the three corpses.
Walking towards the dead bodies, a white wisp came out of the and entered the gun creating 3 noble rounds inside the gun.
Otto let the shadow wolves he made eat the hunters corpses as to get rid of evidence.
*Step* *step* *step* as he finally arrived above Gaspers Bodie, he kneeled and spoke "You all right there boy".
"S-save my sister" Spoke Gasper in a pleading tone.
Gasper along with the person he considering his Sister, Valerie Tepes, I lived in captivity in the Tepest family castle, and Gasper who was a half breed and a sacred gear that was considered a curse, was constantly abused.
One day working up the courage, he asked Valerie for her help in escaping togheter.
Sadly for Gasper Valerie sacrificed herself to let Gasper escape by letting herself be caught.
Gasper who managed to escape didn't know were to go soon after, but as fate would have it he met a group of Vampire Hunters that gravely injured him.
In the brink of death all he could think of was his sister that had done so much for him so that he could escape.
That's why when the mysterious boy asked him if he was alright, all he had asked was for his sister.
"Hm, your sister huh. How about this, you come under my wing and I'll help you control your sacred gear along with saving your sister. Pretty sweet deal right~"
His offer was sweet as candy yet Gasper could feel that there was more to it. It was as of he was about to make a deal with Lucifer himself.
But at this point he didn't care, even if he truly was selling his sould to the devil and considering that he was on the brink of death, he raised his head "I a-accept" said Gasper witha btrem ling voice.
"Good" pointing [Lumina] towards Gasper, he pulled the trigger.
But of course he didn't use bullets but the noble rounds that heal.
The white light enveloped Gasper as all his wound healed.
He quickly got up as he realized that all the pain was gone. He pated himself everywhere to check if he truly was alive.
"H-how?" Despite being on the verge of death with severe wounds, Otto still managed to heal him.
"Don't worry about it kiddo, just k lmow that your wounds took 3 noble rounds" Otto said as he waved the gun on his hands.
"I-I don't know how but thank you" he said with a stutter.
"It's fine, after all we have a deal"
Gasper suddenly remembered the deal he had made "Can you really save big sis Valerie!?" He asked with hope in his eyes.
"Yep, that's what I promised afterall. Let's go quickly, let's take advantage of the night to sneak in" Gasper nodded and followed Otto.
Gasper was nervous, but the one thing that kept him togheter was that he might truly reunite with his sister.
As soon as they left 2 other figures imtered the scene.
"Hm, I tough I felt something but it seems like it's gone" Spoke Rias.
Grayfia who was following behind noticed the bit of red buried under the snow.
"It's getting late Lady Rias, if there is nothing left here the we should hurry back to the hotel" Said Grayfia as she didn't want to linger here any longer.
Rias nodded as they both left, uknkowing that a single blonde child had changed many events that were destined to be.

"So this is it?" I asked Gasper who was riding on my back.
"Yes, this is the Tepes family castle" he nodded.
Currently we are in the woods of a forest. The Tepes apparently made one of the ruined castle hidden here into their own, they rebuilt it and all.
I can also sense the barriers around the castle, it will be easy to get in but getting out is a whole other matter.
"I'm going to need you to stay quiet alright"
Gasper nodded as golden chains covered us, making us disappear completely.
The bad thing about precense sealing is that I can't fight or use magic.
There is also the barrier, once I go in and take off the precense sealing the barrier will alert.
Good thing I have the emegency scape ticket, once I convince Valerie to come with me I'll use it and I'll be teleported somewhere random while the second time I can chose were to go back to.
Home that is.
Jumping over the castle walls I began to sneak past a few groups of vampires, Wich were obviously guards.
Going in I began to walk through the halls avoiding everyone as good as I could while having Gasper navigate me through the maze of halls.
After a few good minutes we made it to Valerie's room but the room was locked, no, sealed.
'shit, they know she has Sephiroth Graal'.there was no other reason the room would be sealed.
'it seems like the seal will set of an alarm if it's undone by someone other than the maker, Tch' tought Otto in annoyance.
The moment he unlocks the seals the whole castle will k ow of his existence.
But of course he isn't worried since he has his own way to escape.
---
I put down Gasper from my back and began my focus on the seals.
It isn't that hard to undo them but I can't stop the alarm system sadly.
I quickly decipherd the magic but before that I turned to Gasper.
"Hey Gasper, the moment I unseal the door the whole castle will be aware of us" I informed his so he would be surprised.
"R-really, so we c-can't save Valerie" a hint of sadness showed in his eyes.
"No I can save her, it's just that I'll need you to stick next to me no matter what. I don't want you falling on the floor giving me no choice to leave you being like in those horror movies" Right now Gasper is a bit of a coward but when it comes to Valerie, his best friend, he can muster enough courage to do what he needs to do.
"Y-yes I'll stay close" he nodded.
I returned the nod and put my hands on the seal and
*Scash* the magic circles shattered like glass.
*WEEWOOO WEEWOOO!!!*
Immediately an alarm sounded out, alerting every vampire of our existence.
I opened the door to the room, it was a decent room for a vampire castle.
I expected it to be more lavish but they surely wouldn't give something like that to a damphir like Valerie or Gasper.
There she was, her small body with long blond hair I'm sure that her eyes were red but her eyes were currently closed.
"Valerie!" Gasper shouted as he ran to her
"Wake up we need to go!, Valerie!... Valerie?" Gasper stoped shaking her as he realized that she wasn't walking up.
I walked up to him and spoke "It's her sacred gear that caused her to go into a coma, to much information was shoved Into her causing her to be in this situation" I informed.
Valerie must have gone into a coma from suddenly receiving information out life, death, and how to make souls.
"What!?, then how do we wake her up?" He seemed to be panicking mote every second.
"Calm down, let's leave her first" without hesitation I picked up Valerie in a princess carry while Gasper was once again hanging from my back like a koala
"H-how are we going to escape?" Asked Gasper nervously as we could hear steps coming closer.
I didn't respond, but merely showed a ticked in my hand.
I riped it and we soon disappear from the scene and to another random location.
