The Afternoon
“Balthazar, why there are altogether 3 vampires a dragon and 5 ghost riders standing together? Don’t get me wrong, old man” he turns to all of them “you are all good looking”, after that he looks at Balthazar again “but just think of their full power…it scares me off….
(the 9 look at each other,they are shocked for a while and all laugh together)
“David, after the incident today, I think it is the best to keep you in a smaller place like this room. And for extra safty, ”
“Small? How? it’s bigger And taller than my lab or St John's Cathedral in 4-8 Garden Road Central , Hong Kong( writer note: big and nice one, you really should go , the glass has some HK elements such as traditional fishman that you can’t found in the other churches in the world), anyway, my master said it …so….. I will listen to you, old man.”
I just punch gently on David's shoulder with appreciation before playing with my toy shark, using its hand to clap for David and praise him with the adorable child voice “About your statement, the part about Hong Kong, you are correct.” After saying out my lines, I let the ghost riders play with me as William and Organist Blake are chatting about music.
Balthazar can’t help but laugh “of course, compared to Hong Kong’s scales, anywhere is big…for Hong Kong’s apartment rent or buying fees are the most expensive in the world.”
“wait, how do you let Johnathon "Johnny" Blaze come, wait, the bike stuntman star, he’s Bennet’s friend’s idol” David is surprised.
“yes that is the Johnathon~Harker…sorry, Blaze!” Every time I said “Johnathon”, I can’t help using a Dracula Bride seductive way to say it out, and again like everytime, Johnny Blaze trembles but the ghost rider in him, Zarathos,this time rise a bit to the surface, take over johnny’s hand and eye,using his bone hand and and the mix little dim orange blue eyes to scares me back as a little revenge. “for my host, my little one”,he echo in my mind with his low voice.
Let’s start shall we? A vampire’s possession spell could be very fast, David”
“How fast?” asked David as I gave a nod to Balthazar with an evil smile.
David all of a sudden is possessed by Balthazar completely, Balthazar on purpose takes over David’s voice and speaks in a meaningful way “Like this fast, David. Don’t ask me why you are the one who got hurt again, Minnie experienced it already earlier. And what are the best way to let you experience it when your teacher is a vampire, who can let you learn it all by deep memory?And don’t say I am a tough master, David, I am and I will continue to do the tradition of Merlinian’s teaching method:very tough to enemy, extraordinarily much more tough to apprentice in training!”
Balthazar controlled David’s body to sit down before releasing David and reappearing in front of me.
“Oh, really that fast.” exclamate by David.
“yes,that fast! And I guess somone need to experience my speed , which is much more faster than Balthazar and much more cruel” I reply to David as I open the curtain of the big window (one that is 3m tall and can allow you to get out of the room straight to the forest by a easy swipe body as you sit on it)
I put down my dear Balthashark toy shark gently, padding him three times, and with my run to a mic stand, place it in front of a curtain, and draw out my sword Evil Lord Monica, place it on the mic stand, and open the curtain:The rude wizard is back!
Alxandar, William, Organist Blake, Balthazar Blake now all turn into vampire form and drinking the rude wizard.Their fangs all together in unison sink into the wizard and in the room, soon there are no more sound except the crazy scream of the wizard. Sun Lok even not a vampire still turn into dragon form, even not full size , join the “tasting”.
After 2 minutes Balthazar Blake’s dad even let summon dark mist and green ghost fire to cover the dead body, Balthazar’s dad is consumeing the dead body’s flesh and bones.
The rude sorcerer’s ghost is now escapeing from the window, the ghost riders was patient and polite but once they sense what the sorcerer have done, they all use their weapon to drag the ghost out of the window and use Penance Stare to “eat” the soul.
Merlin flow in and place his hands each both shoulders to ease our fear.
“David, just look at me, ok?”
“ok,Minnie , but what is going on?”
“may you never need to know what is going on, just please two me two flavour, give me 5 big jar of water from the the kitchen”
As David left the room , I sense the vampire in me wants balthazar, so I turn into vampire form.
“oh, my child, he taste bad, I don’t know why I drink him.”
“I know I should not say it as a human or a half vampire, but really that bad?”
“worse than your smelly socks , I promise, even monsquto will not bite him, very bitter , like I told you this earlier”
“serious?” I ask them as they are now changing the clotheings even their original clothes are not tained by blood at all or having a quick shower.
William, ever the stoic butler, swipes his napkin across his mouth with a grimace. "Indeed, your Highness. The flavor is quite...unpleasant. Perhaps it's the company he's been keeping and his upbringing."
Alxandar, the stern general, nods in agreement, his scarred face twisting in distaste. "The bitterness in his veins is not merely from his disposition, I suspect. There's something foul in his nature that's seeped into his essence."
The former Vampire King, Organist Blake, still in his ghost vampire full form,strokes his beard thoughtfully. "Ah, yes, my dear. His spirit is as corrupted as his palate. It's not just his demeanor that leaves a sour taste, it's the very essence of his existence. I must say it taste much more awful than what I taste that sip hours ago. HIs flesh is ….yuck, sharp, flat,fugue".
I did not dare to ask Orgnist Blake for more for I know the “sharp” and “flat” are normally mean classical music accidental signs and the difficult composition style word “fugue”, are now as a cover instead of directly saying out the offensive language ,the “sh-it” and the “fu-ck” word.
"Indeed, Minnie. This human's blood is not just bitter from his attitude. It carries a taint of something much darker, something that has permeated his very being." Balthazar reply.
Sun Lok even added: I can promise you, even Chinese Medicine is not as bitter taste as that guy’s blood!
After they finish showering , changing clothes, and brushed their teeth and fangs.The ghost riders are drinking the water that prepared by David.
“Even the soul is terrible?”
“Yes,this man is what you Chinese said « so bad that deep into the soul»” reply by Johnny.
After everybody in the room clean the “crime since”, Elena , Veronica and Roxanne Simpson entered the room.
The three kings, Organist Blake the late vampire king, Balthazar Blake the current vampire king and Johnny Blaze the King of Hell,all look at each other and give them a glance of “face our wifes directly before they found it out”.
Johnny I smell sulphur.
yes…my rent free roommate within me is hungry, and if not,you know what will happen like earlier morning,a big fight.
Roxanne ask their children Craig and Emma to hit him as a punishment.
Roxanne shout Have you ever think of your child!?
“Yes,please stop”. Said by Johnny’s voice is mixed with Zarathos.
Seeing even Zarathos know he is wrong, Roxanne ask the children to stop.
Elena is the most gentle one within all three wifes,for Organist turn into full vampire ghost form and confess to his wife .
“Elena,you know what happened this morning,and he came again just now.I can bear people insult me,but not my family”
Elena just give him a nod: I know,but please,it scares me.
Organist just give her a 90 degrees bow to his wife ask for her forgiveness. Elena agreed,for she knows he is serious.
Veronica is the most frightening one.
I spell Blood and Sulphur, balthazar. explain.
Veronica,the sulphur is not me.
“What about the blood, balthazar?”
The master sorcerer use a guilty embarrasse way to answer his wife: yes,he try to hide in the room,I don't know what he would do,so…
“But you don't have to finish such way!”
“Veronica,the vampire in me,he cares you much as I do, neither of us can bear he insult you.” Balthazar at this moment slowly turn into his vampire form and knelt to his wife with fear.
Horvath walks into the room,with a “Minnie,I feel lucky that I did not married Veronica” look stand aside.
“Alexander,it seems that every Blake fear their wife's,no matter how strong they are,who can imagine that the 3 strong kings ,once they back home, they are all….like this,even the ghost rider king .” I said
“Oh,Minnie, they are.” Answer by the vampire general.
Organist Blake said to me in person to confirm: my little Minnie,we all Blake's are,just like the Chinese’s stereotype to one of their city Shanghai,fear our wifes.
Horvath and Sun Lok: Minnie, don't be unhappy that you have no yet find a boyfriend.
Me: ha,long live single.
