Curse of the Duke

Suddenly, Lest was interrupted by the sound of footsteps behind him.

"Do you hear the sound of fighting in the distance?"

"I think so."

Alicar and I began making our way to the source of the noise. Along with the sound of blades smashing each other, I could also hear the distinct sound of vines being cut. 

"I think that's Robbie."

"You think he's alright?"

"I think I can hear the sound of his vines being cut through, that's not a good sign."

{Rank}: Duke; {Remaining Blood}: 86%

Crap, it's a Duke.

After a little while, the two of us turned the corner. We were met by the sight of Robbie's injured body being held up by the neck. The white-haired vampire turned and looked at us.

"Looks like you've got backup..."

He dropped Robbie onto the ground.
