Luke may be in terrible danger.

Again?

[mrsharker.livejournal.com]

We really need to talk to Galvin about this. Accelerate your training somehow. *quite worried*

[luke-rutherford.livejournal.com]

Why? What's happening?

[mrsharker.livejournal.com]

... I've been having some disturbing dreams that I don't want to entirely overlook. They point to you being in a lot of danger.

[luke-rutherford.livejournal.com]

House arrest? Like it'll work

[mrsharker.livejournal.com]

Actually, no. That's a short term solution to a bloody ancient problem, if I'm right. No: I want your training redoubled, because -- because right now, any attempts you'd make to deal with -- with this problem would be laughable.

No offense, you understand.

[luke-rutherford.livejournal.com]

Worryingly I do.

What is it thats going to kill me this time?

[mrsharker.livejournal.com]

I --

That doesn't matter, Luke. The fact of the matter is that we need to talk to Galvin about this promptly.

[luke-rutherford.livejournal.com]

Don't I have the right to know?

[mrsharker.livejournal.com]

It's probably just a dream, Luke. Just... go and do some push-ups or something.

[luke-rutherford.livejournal.com]

But it's gotten you worried.

I'm not a kid. If you want me to train, to fight these things. I'm big enough to know what you dreamt

[mrsharker.livejournal.com]

Luke, it's personal.

[luke-rutherford.livejournal.com]

*sigh* Ok. Ok.

I'll go play Guitar hero or something equally normal

[they-bite.livejournal.com]

How serious we talking here?

[mrsharker.livejournal.com]

Dracula, Rupert. Dracula.

[they-bite.livejournal.com]

*beat* Dracula? The Dracula? You have gotta be kidding me.

[mrsharker.livejournal.com]

The one and only.

It was good to see him.

[they-bite.livejournal.com]

No, Dracula's dead. Jonathan and Abraham sent him back to the Half-Life where he belonged.

[mrsharker.livejournal.com]

I saw him. I could never, ever mistake him.

I've been suspecting this to happen for a while... they staked him, Rupert. We didn't know it didn't work back then.

[they-bite.livejournal.com]

You had a vision? Did he say anything?

*shakes his head* Luke's not ready for this, not by a long shot. *sighs, quiet for a moment, thinking* I'll talk to Jenny, tell her that he and I are taking a little trip somewhere. For now the priority is keeping him alive.

[mrsharker.livejournal.com]

*very softly* ... He came to one of my concerts.

And no. No, he's not.

[they-bite.livejournal.com]

... What did he say?

We'll deal with Dracula once we've got Luke outta the way.

[mrsharker.livejournal.com]

He said that I was malnourished... We shared a bottle of absinthe.

I-I'm not sure he's here for Luke. *bites her lip*

[they-bite.livejournal.com]

*frowns at her* We are talking about the same Dracula here, right? He's not an old pal who's just in town for a visit, Mina.

[mrsharker.livejournal.com]

Yes. *there's a softness to her voice very briefly* Vlad. The one who made me into the creature that I am today. The self-same.

He-he's -- I don't think he's here for Luke. He could have taken him out already by now if he were. But nonetheless, it's definitely time to up Luke's training.

I can skip my treatments this week. We can teach him what a vampire can really do.
