"Is that really necessary?!", asked Dark, slightly scratching at his neck. He had a crucifix around it, which already burnt a bit of his skin like acid, but much slower. "It is!", Said Mark while continuing walking, "it will prevent you from killing one of us while sleeping." Seán, Marvin and Chase sighed at the conversation. They still didn't know the backstory of Dark and Mark, why they seemed to hate each other so badly. But then, they didn't really wanted to know. Suddenly, they all heard horse hooves, thumping through the forest. As they came nearer, all of them could see how the dust danced through the air, before the figure behind it stopped right before them "don't you vorry!", said a centaur with a thick accent, "Ve are vinally 'ere!" On his back sat man with pointy ears, blonde hair and a green vest, but also with a little bit of fur on his shoulders. He smiled as he descended from the centaurs back, hugging Seán tight. "It's okay buddy", He escaped from the hug and looked at the half horse who was a big taller than him. "Hello Henrik" he said, "May I introduce you to? King Mark, King of the South and East.", "it's an honor", smiled Henrik, going on his knees to bow before Mark. Mark smiled as well, looking at the black horse body of Henrik. Meanwhile, Dark was just standing at the bored and slightly annoyed. He looked at Jamie who was hugging both Chase and Marvin. For a split second, his eyes flashed to red, because of hunger then died down to normal black. Jamie lets out a silent laugh, before facing the vampire. Suddenly, his eyes widened and rolled to the back of his head, his body falling with a soft thud. "Jamie!", yelled Chase as he bent down trying to help the unconscious elf off the ground, "step aside!", ordered Marvin, crouching down next to him and placing a hand on his forehead. "What's going on with him?", asked Mark in confusion "Dark did you do this?!", "he didn't", interrupted Seán, "he's having a vision." "I have to get him out of it", said Marvin, his eyes starting to gleam, "he's too weak from the last one, he wouldn't survive." The magician closed his eye, sending a strange light into the Youngers head, before opening again and standing up. Jamie immediately shot up, gasping for air and clutching his chest. Dark looked at it with a fascinated expression, before smiling an evil grin. Meanwhile, Jamie was signing something to Seán: I saw you and Mark. Both of you on the ground, maybe grass? Around the grass was a forest, a few stones were standing in a circle, you were both in the middle. You were dead or dying, I don't know? And.... He abruptly stopped signing, his hands shaking from fear. He then continued: and you had a dagger in your back. "Is this the future?", asked Mark scared "not exactly", said Marvin, "Jamie's visions are very strange. Sometimes they show the future, past, the present, what the future could be... or warning." "And who gives him these visions?" Chase interrupted, confused. Marvin shrugged: "nobody knows." "So Dark", said Seán as Jamie tried to stand on his own feat without passing out, "what do we need in order to help Felix?" Dark smirked as he chuckled: "it's simple. We need to find someone. He'll know what we need and where to find it." "And who is zat person?", asked Henrik. His hooves scratching over the ground. Dark's smile grew wider, before answering. "Anti." Seán gulped but hesitantly nodded. "Who is that?", Mark asked, not knowing why Seán would act like that. "A leprechaun.", whispered Seán, "he attacked so many people who entered his part of the forest. Nobody has survived it yet.", "just follow me or run like scared dogs.", shrugged Dark stepping forward "it's your choice." They all looked at each other, before Chase nods and followed the vampire, the others quickly joined. Jamie still drowsy decides to hop on Henriks back. After a few hours they all reached to a grass field and in the middle was a circle of rocks, on each stone flickered green fire. Sunset had already happened it was the deepest night. Only the moon gave little light, plus the fire. As they stepped into the circle, a high pitched laugh echoed through the forest, followed by Darks evil chuckle, suddenly a figure appeared in complete black leather and with strange green hair. The eyes switched between emerald green and pitch black. "Well look at that!", laughed Anti at Dark who smiled at the leprechaun "the mighty Dark chained up like dog in a shelter!" "I was never chained up", said Dark as he approached Anti, removing the crucifix without any problems, while the others stood in shock, "it's nice to see you Antisepticeye." He then turned around, facing Mark and Seán with an evil smirk "crucifix's may work to normal vampires, but not me. I didn't actually swear to you anything. And as for you little elf's visions", he pointed towards Jamie. "The daggers were simply...symbolic. A dagger in the back. Betrayal."
