Sneak Peek
[Cut to- A young woman, Abigail Whitewood, walks into a lavish room in the Hotel St. Francis. There are many Vampires in there, feeding off of innocent people. Vemmelig is also seen. When Vemmelig sees Abigail he stands up quickly, dropping the two bodies that had been resting on him onto the floor. He is covered in their blood.]

ABIGAIL: (Jokingly) Vemmelig Svenson everybody; our completely sane and mild-mannered leader.

[Some of the Vampires in the room chortled at this. Vemmelig himself smiled widely at Abigail.]

VEMMELIG: Ah, Abigail Whitewood, one of my eldest friends. What an improvement you made to Santa Fe in the last century since my departure. How exactly did you get rid of the population of Witches living here?

ABIGAIL: A Vampire never reveals her secrets Vem. Not this one anyway. So, seeing as you’re back, I take it you finally got the Vampire that killed Adam?

VEMMELIG: I did that seventy two years ago. I’ve been exploring, and expanding, ever since. It is always good to come home though. And Santa Fe is the closest thing I have to a home nowadays. Too bad my village didn’t last as long as I have.

ABIGAIL: And you never thought to write? You really know how to leave a girl hanging, don’t you? Anyway, I actually came to talk to you about something.

VEMMELIG: Go right ahead. There are no secrets between clan members. You know that.

ABIGAIL: Fine. The trio that you let loose in White Rock. Remember them? Well, they’re dead. All three of them were staked through the heart a few days ago. And they're not the only members of your clan that you sprinkled throughout the region to suddenly transform into a desiccated corpse. It’s been going on for about a week now. I think it may be the work of a Vampire Hunter.

VEMMELIG: Vampire Hunters come through Santa Fe all the time. We’re just skilled enough to deal with them quickly and with minimal casualties. On our side anyway.

ABIGAIL: This seems different. There aren’t just newbie Vamps being killed off; Nathaniel showed up dead last night. His friends dragged him in whilst you were out feeding! He was over a century old!

VEMMELIG: Abigail, calm down.

[Abigail looks suddenly less irritated. She looks down at her feet before looking back at Vemmelig.]

ABIGAIL: Look, Vem, I’m sorry. It’s just… I don’t know… we haven’t really had a threat here since the Witches.

VEMMELIG: Well you took care of them, right? You can take care of this supposed Hunter easily. I have faith in you Abigail; I know you won’t let me down.

[Vemmelig pats her on the shoulder and departs. Abigail looks around and sees a weary man swaying as he walks towards the exit. She impedes him and grabs onto his shoulder.]

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt; text-align: justify;">ABIGAIL: Sorry, but today is not the best day for me. That means it’s also the day you die.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt; text-align: justify;">[Abigail’s eyes turn dark red, and black veins creep up her face. She lunges her mouth at the man’s blood-stained neck and drinks him dry, killing him. The body falls limply to the floor. Abigail picks up a handkerchief from the table beside her and cleans herself up.]
