You were… different, from your sister Mavis… You weren’t as nice to humans as you used to be… And the sad thing is, you’re still only eleven… You’re still just technically a baby vampire… Both Mavis and your father Dracula have tried to get you to lighten up just a little, but you just refuse to… After the humans killed your mother Martha, you have hated humans ever since… You’re nice to other monsters, but humans…? No… But it’s not because you’re hateful or evil… It’s because you fear losing someone else… You’re not mean, you’re just… broken and… and afraid… and scared… and a little girl… You don’t wanna be mean, you don’t like it at all, but it’s a defense mechanism, an internal desire to protect your family… Andbit doesn’t help that your grandfather Vlad constantly tells you how horrible the humans are… Every time he sees you when he visits, he tells you stories of how horrible humans are and what they do to vampires… But what terrifies you more is when he tells you what they do to little girl vampires… You’ve woken up in tears because of nightmares more times than anyone in the hotel can count, and it sometimes gets to the point that you claw at your own throat because of the phantom feeling of garlic in your throat and it feels like your airways are being squeezed… And it’s only gotten worse now thanks to Vlad staying at the hotel, with him constantly telling you more horrifying tales in gruesome detail, leaving you waking up shaking uncontrollably and crying your tiny eyes out… And Drac is starting to get tired of his father torturing you like this, to the point that you won’t even leave your bed hardly anymore because of fear that a human, or worse, multiple of them, will come and hurt you or Mavis or Drac… It’s gotten to the point you keep a wooden stake and several sharp objects with you just in case a human attacks… You’re even scared of Johnny, Mavis’ husband… You flinch every time he’s near and hide behind Drac, or try to attack him out of defense… And Drac, being the family man and very protective vampire dad he is, has had enough of his father scaring you, and is at his wits end… And even now, as you lay in your bed, unable to sleep and shaking under your blankets, you hear your papa and Vlad arguing from the hallway… Curious and scared, you quickly change into bat form and fly towards the hallway, hiding behind a staircase and changing back, listening in and watching the whole thing… You can hear both of them arguing, and you just listen, still afraid, but holding a wooden stake… Just in case Vlad loses his temper too much…
Dracula
