As the boy spoke, he smiled reassuringly. "Nadin, it is a pleasure to meet you. I am Dante and you are in my home." He considered how much to tell the boy about how he had come to be here. "I...found you. In the woods." Would it really have been beneficial to remind him of the gnome who had nearly thrown him away like trash? What memories might that draw to the surface. "You were badly hurt so I mended you as best I could...but it is not my specialty." He smiled again, hiding the dishonesty of his words. He looked him over again, knowing those bandages would need to be changed. Soon. "Perhaps I should take you to a proper doctor...let him give you a once over?"
shivered a bit “Dante..” He repeated and moved enough to get a better look at where he was. Something about this cabin seeming familiar though he wasn’t sure why. It wasn’t that he had lived here before or anything but more that it reminded him of his own home elsewhere in some forgotten memory. “In the woods.. ? So the I escaped the vampires? but how? No one ever gets away from BloodMoon” he said the nam and winced again. “A real doctor.. ok. and then.. and then what?” he asked with a sinking feeling that he knew where this was going. Children without parents ended up in orphanages, the hurt and fear of this happening showing in his eyes as he looked back at Donte.

He nearly responded to the mention of vampires, mouth opening but then no words came. In the next moment, he was being bombarded with another question. One he had not considered. 'Then what?' The words echoed around him almost like an accusation. You took him, now what do you do? "Well, first things first. We get you better. After..." he paused a moment, studying him. What frightened the gnome so much of this boy. "If you would like to stay...you are welcome here. Until we find your family." He hesitated thinking perhaps the mention of family might not have been the best thing. "Let's not worry ourselves with things that aren't here yet...for now...you rest." He stood to his feet, looking down at the little boy and then to the kitchen. "I bet you are hungry. Yeah?" He offered a smile, trying to change the subject quickly.
Orin kept a steady gaze from the floor here he lay recovering.His blue green eyes almost boring a hole into Dante’s head as if checking his resolve. Orin was about average hight for a 10 year old, making him look a bit tall for the age he claimed to be and thought he was. He wasn’t overly thing meaning wherever he had been held he had not been held long enough to lose to much weight. Other than that he just looked like a normal sick and injured kid who was upset over the loss of his family. His eyes widened at the mention of finding his family “so then you will help me get back my mom and Julia from the vampires?” He asked, his voice cracking as it was still receiving from all the screaming he had done while chained up. At the mention of food he was licking his lips and trying to sit up again. “yes.. starving.” he agreed.

He held the small bundle of food in the cradle of his arms. He had NO clue what he was doing. Cook? He created music...not food. He would do his best though...the child needed it. Stepping through the rickety old picket fence that surrounded his home, he groaned at the non-working gate. He would have to fix that...sometime. He moved through the cottage door, pausing to glance in to where he had left Orin.
Orin watched the man go "wait.. are you going to help me find my mom and dad or not?" he asked and tried to move himself into a chair now that the potion was helping him feel better. He winced at the pain in his body. "Just a sandwich would be good or a potato.. mom used to always feed me potato's" he said to the man from inside the cabin.
A smile creased his features at the site of improvement. "Of course I'll help you." He had no idea how...but he would try. Maybe someone in town would recognize him...know his family. Maybe that would be the place to start. He ran a shop after all, people knew him. It shouldn't be that hard..right? "A potato?" He chuckled lightly, "That won't be nearly enough for a boy...how old did you say you were again?" He frowned slightly trying to remember before he moved off towards a table in the corner to deposit the rations. Rummaging through them he found a fresh loaf of bread from the bakery and some sliced ham from the butcher. Rough sliced, but a sandwich could be managed from it. It had been a safe choice? How do you mess up a sandwich? Turning, he moved to the kitchen and began to search for a knife. "You know, you are welcome to stay here as long as you like."
Orin was still in need of seeing a doctor as his injuries would need the care of someone more professional. "Yes a potato.. we used to share a potato a night between Mom, dad, sis and I. Before the Vampires came and killed dad and took mom and sis" he told the man as he and his family had been very poor. "I'm seven sir" he groaned, felling at the injury about his neck. He continued to watch the man "really.. stay here.. with you? I don't know.. I mean I have to get my mom and sister back from the vampires" he said in worry.

Share..a potato amongst so many? A lump formed in his throat before he was able to force it down. He found the knife he was looking for and moved back to the table, slicing several pieces from the loaf. As he put the sandwich together, he spoke. "That's right...seven." He grabbed a sandwich in each hand, a few pieces of meat falling to the floor, then moved back to the room where Orin was. He offered the sandwich then thought...something to drink. "I hope water is ok?" He turned and took a bite of his own sandwich as he moved to find some cups to fill with water. As he did, he nearly choked. What a DRY sandwich. After he rounded the corner into the kitchen, he looked down at the concoction in his head and frowned. It was never like that at the pub. And there was some flavor missing. He suddenly thought perhaps he should expidite the collecting of water so the poor boy didn't choke to death. He found two cups, scooped water in one...downed it hurriedly then filled both cups and carefully made his way back to Orin, a cup in each hand and the sandwich in his mouth. He must have looked quite the fool.
Orin sat quietly, just rubbing at the areas where the shackles had held him as it still hurt. "Rain water?" He asked as that was what he had been used to back home. "what ever you have will be fine Dante." he said meekly, still a bit uneasy in his new surroundings. Seeing the man come back holding the sandwich in his mouth like that and a glass in each hand had the boy start to laugh as he found the sight amusing. He soon had to stop laughing though as things started hurting. "after we eat are we going into ton to see that doctor?" he asked, reminding the man of his own idea.
Handing one glass to Orin, he took his own and his sandwich and sat on the floor in the corner. He watched as the boy winced and knew he needed a proper doctor. "Of course. I could have him come here if you would be more comfortable." He took another bite and chased it with water. Swallowing, he cleared his throat then added, "Don't worry about the water, there is a spring where I get my water not far from here. Very clean...and cold nearly year round." He took another drink and raised his glass as if to offer a toast to the little guy.
Orin sat at the table and sniffed at the sandwich. Tearing off a small bit with his hands to try and chocking on the dry bread a bit. He quickly took a sip from the water and his eyes went wide with surprise. "This water is really good! You have your on spring? your Land Lord lets you have one?" he asked "you must be very well off" he commented and went back to eating his food and drinking. "No I think we should go into town.. maybe then we can ask other in town about my family while seeing the doctor" he suggested, hopping someone might know what happened to them. He gave the man an odd look as raised a toast to him, not knowing what he was doing "What are you doing?" he asked.

He chuckled and leaned forward to touch the rim of his own cup to the cup the boy was holding. "It's just a friendly gesture. Kind of a...courtesy." Lowereing his glass back to his lap, he finished his sandwich with just a few more bites, chasing it with water to wash it down. He stood to his feet, dusted off his pants and cast a slightly worried glance over the boy. He was still recovering, but a trip in to town might do him so good. It appeared the potion was doing its job. Offering a nod of his head, he brought a hand to his mouth to wipe away a few bread crumbs. "Perhaps a visit to town is exactly what you need right now." Waiting for the young lad to follow, he moved through the door to the outside, pausing to inhale the fresh air appreciatively. "Who knows, we might even find your family and get you back home."
Orin watched that man touch his glass with his own “Oh.. that’s a strange thing to do. Would that not break the glasses thought if you kept doing it?” he asked ,finishing his own food and drink with a bit more gusto than the man did, which caused him hiccups.He would follow when the man got up, stumbling a bit on his feet since they still needed to get him in to see a doctor in town, this being the whole point of the trip. That and finding clues about his family.Orin leaned on the older man for support to all as h still felt quit weak. “you rally thing they will be there?” he asked, not so sure they would be.

He was careful not to walk too fast, noticing how much the young man was still leaning into him and not trusting his own strength. It was asking a lot for someone his age to walk into town as it was, not to mention injured. "I suppose anything is possible...." he feined not remembering his name. "...errr...what was your name again? You'll have to ignore this old man's memory." He smiled down at him. "I imagine being only 10..." he glanced down from the corner of his eye then looked back to the path they were walking down, "...you have a memory sharp as a tack." They had, by this time, already put several hundred yards between them and the cottage. The first hints of the nearing town began to meet their ears in the form of the low murmuring of people wandering the town streets and alley ways.
Orin had no clothes on but the loin cloth he had come in so walked in bare feet next to the man. “My name is Nadin sir” he looked up at him “And yours?” he asked back, as in his case he had forgotten due to the medicine making his head fuzzy. “Hmm.. memory..I .. uh.. I just remember a fire.. and vampire killing dad and taking mom and sis… “ he said in a sad voice “I ..I remember before then too a bit.. but the rest is fuzzy.. like I still don’t know how I ended up in the woods where you found me” he said, even though the man had not found him in the woods and had taken him out of the hands of a very paranoid gnome that had thought the boy a demon incarnate and evil.
Nodded his head at the mention of the name. "Nadin, of course." He gave a slight shake of his head as if removing some cobwebs that were interfering with his ability to think. "I'm Dante. I suppose we should be on first name basis at this point at least." He chuckled then grew silent as the boy had continued. The story had never changed. He was consistent on those points at least, but something in the way he said the name didn't ring true to Dante, but he couldn't put his finger on it. And the age...it just didn't fit. They rounded a corner and Dante was careful to keep the boy close so as to not let him fall. He stopped in front of what appeared to be a small cottage nestled up next to several smaller shops. "Here we are." He smiled and looked down to Nadin reassuringly before raising a hand to open the door.

The boy had never once acted strange in the mans presence, in fact he had done nothing but act like a an injured and hurt little boy that wanted his family back. He nodded as the man repeated his name “Dante.. right .. this medicine is making my head foggy” he complained, clutching at the man’s clothing as he made the turn and Orin nearly lost his balance. He saw the house and as the door opened he would walk in. The doctor frowning as they came in.
“dear lord.. what happened here?” the woman asked and rushed over to pick the boy up and put him on the table. “are you his father?” she asked the man.
As the boy was gathered up, he took a slight step back then shook his head as he was asked about being his father. "No, I found him this way. I've been taking care of him." He looked a little worried as he watched the doctor work. "He's fine right?" He looked between Nadin and the doctor several times before pressing himself against the wall behind him to stay out of the way. "I honestly don't know what happened to him..." Clearing his throat he took a step forward and leaned in close to the doctor. "A passing gnome had him on his cart and was prepared to throw him out..." his voice was low as he whispered, "and I couldn't let that happen."
Nadin wold let himself be picked up, somehow looking more frail and weak in he woman arms as she set him down on the bed. She started checking him over. “FINE! you call this fine?” she half shouted at the man, shoving something in the boys mouth and taking off the bandages placed on him by the gnome. “Whoever did this was not doing him any favours I tell you” she said, working to wash the body up so his wounds showed more clearly. The boy whimpering as she touched at spots that still hurt and wincing as the woman got just a bit too rough with him. “found you say.. and where did you find him?” she asked, taking the thing out of the boys mouth to look at it and her eyes going wide.

He took a step back, a bit stunned at her reaction. The boy was obviously worse off than his novice eyes had been able to ascertain. "I passed a gnome in the street that had him in some sort of wagon. He was carting him off mumbling about disposing of him..." He looked to Nadin and realized perhaps he shouldn't have said so much. But should the truth really be hidden from him? Perhaps telling all he knew would help jog the boy's mind. "He said I would regret taking him and that he was trouble...trouble for all of us." He looked between the two and then added, "But how could he be? He's so young. I couldn't let him throw him out like trash...so I took him into my home...gave him the potion the gnome said would help, because I didn't know what else to do, then brought him here as soon as he was able." He looked defeated, perhaps he had done the wrong thing even getting involved.
The woman listened to the man as she had worked, cursing about the bad job the Gnome had done. “A Gnome you say.” and she waved a him in a never mind sort of way. “they are idiots and superstitious to boot. It could be the boy arrived and his house flooded and he blamed the boy for no other reason than he happened to show up at the time” she said, pretty much describing exactly what had happened in truth, though in Orin’s case it had been a sudden appearance of a volcano.
“you did the right thing bringing him here. I think you. Now sit” she half scolded, being an older human woman of small size herself but quite the spitfire.
Orin had lay there listening, looking over to Dante as he revealed the truth and at first only managed a questioning look but as the woman looked and prodded at him more he would start to twitch and start to growl. Then as if a time bomb had gone off in his head he was taking the tool in the woman hand and stabbing it into her eye making her cry out and fall to the floor. The boy screaming as he got of the table, still stumbling as he isn’t strong enough still. He hiss at Dante and tumble forward, trying to attack and bite at the man. A crazy look in his eyes that had not been there before.

He was on the verge of taking the seat when a flury of motion stopped him. Nadin was coming towards him with some sort of instrument, and that cherub like demeanor was gone. Stepping back, he held out his hands. "Nadin..calm down son..." The words slipped from his mouth on instinct. He realized it after he had said it. Probably a poor choice of words. Clearing his throat, he added "Ma'am...can't you sedate him or something? Something is seriously wrong with him." All the while he was taking step after step backwards, not wanting to really hurt the boy if he could avoid it.
The woman was on the floor screaming “that demon just stabbed me in the eye” she screamed, but would get up, and fumble around for something anything she could use.
The boy snarled and slashed at him with the now bloody instrument. “You will die! I will kill all of you! I BLOOD shall bring all your kind to their knees.” he snarled as he said the nick name his brother once held. Acting like he himself was a vampire, hissing and barring his teeth as if fangs were there when they were not. His body was shaking and still weak. He would back the man into a wall and hold the tool out towards his crotch. “Sit! Or I take your manhood” He ordered, his chest raising and lowing quickly.

He had glanced behind him a second before the wall was to close in on his back. Realizing he had nowhere to go and this child was insane, he began to hear the gnome's warning in his head. Had he been right? Seeing the sharp object come towards him, he reacted out of instinct. A leg rose quickly, foot aiming to connect with the hand holding the object. If he did, once his foot found the ground again, he would lunge forward at Nadin, hoping to grasp him in his arms and hold him until the woman was able to find something to subdue him. He was only 7...how strong could he be?
the woman stumbled becoming weak from being stabbed in the eye and losing too much blood and soon fell to the floor dead, leaving the man on his own. As he tried to kick the thing from Orin hand the boy tried to move to doge, likely nicking something. Orin growled in rage and tried to make another swipe at him but he was grabbed up before he could, the boy not strong at all as he was only human and still injured. He called out and screamed “let me go..! Let me go!

MEANWHILE Back To JHON John came across the empty hut of the gnome and turned it over several times to no avail, the scent was growing dim. He had to wonder once again if the boy was even worth the trouble. He was interesting though and could have been of use to John, but John could always find others perhaps. But none that were previously vampires, no that was a very hard thing to come by, and not many humans are even worthy of the idea of turning.
John exited the hut knowing it was useless. That was when he spotted the village and made his way to it in hopes that the boy might be there or that he could pick up the trail once more.
Reaching town John would come across the building Orin and Dante were in. The smell of blood in the and and the sound of the boy screams coming from inside. as well as the scent of someone else. SW_W_SM

John burst through the door his dagger at the ready shimmering in the candle light his eyes flashing. "knock knock... let the boy go." He ran his tongue over one long fang as he pointed the knife towards the man that had apparently tried to apprehend Orin. He flicked his dagger downward a few times to indicate the man should drop the boy. "Come to daddy son." John growled the command at Orin. "See what happens when you don't listen to father. See the trouble you get in? Now where is your sister at? Because it is time we go be a nice happy family together." His wide wicked grin was focused on Orin even if his eyes stayed focused upon the man. He couldn't let his guard down even though he also smelled fresh blood in the room. He stood at the ready waiting for the man and Orin. He was done with the torture. It was time to turn the boy and make him his own child since it seemed his own daughter was too weak to do so. But she was much like her mother. And he could not stay mad at Apollyn even if he tried.

*He watched in horror as the woman fell dead. What in the hell had he gotten himself involved with? What was this child? The gnome had been...afraid...perhaps rightfully so. He felt the sharp twinge of metal piercing through the fabric of his pants and to his flesh. But the movement had been so quick, the damage had been limited...lucky for him. He winced at the slight pain as his arms encircled tight around the boy.*
"You need to cal...."
*His words trailed off as another man came bursting into the room waving another dagger. Two blades now. Come to daddy? He looked down to the struggling boy he was holding and then back to the man holding the blade and making all the demands. He pressed his back into the wall behind him, at least limiting that as an avenue of attack for the moment.*
"Who are you? You are this boy's father?"
*He spoke to Nadin, not letting him go yet...for two reasons. He wasn't sure if this man was telling the truth....and he wasn't certainly not sure that Nadin would not attempt to cut him again.*
"Nadin, who is this man?"

Orin was still struggling in Dante’s arms when John came bursting in through the doors. He stoped struggling then, as his eyes focuses on John and he watched him lick his fang and point that knife. He growled at John.
“You are no father of mine. my father is Kern, he is the one that made me” he hissed. He twitch at the mention of his sister “Julia..Julia.. my sister..she is..” he was calming again, becoming confused. He dropped the weapon in his hand and tears rolled down his face. “I have to help Julia.” he whimpered.”you.. you will take me to Julia?” he asked, seeming to have forgotten his last encounter with this man already.
It might be then that Dane would realize Orin was perhaps crazy and in need of mental help. The only boon being that at least Orin had dropped the weapon and was no longer trying to attack him or get away. He had gone back to being that scared and sad boy he had been taking care of in his hut.

John no grin on his face at the moment though he could not express how deeply joyed he was at the idea of taking Orin away gave a nod "I will take you to her."
He looked back at the man. "I apologize for my son's crazy antics. He was a premature birth you see, the brain never fully developed. It is a sad truth in the end. He just must have wandered off while his mother's back was turned. She was so frightened she asked me to come find him as he and I have a special bond." Now he would smile showing some of those fangs his lips concealed. He would have the boy soon enough... then who knows.
