Who: Armand, Max, Violet, Doctor, Kibeth (Posting order, if that's cool?)
Where: The spa
When: Early evening
What: Rescue time!
Rating: R, cause of it being Armand and all
Status: Complete

He was just waiting. Waiting for instructions on what to do. He had his victims, and he was ready to do what he was supposed to. Or... mostly. There was only one slight little hitch to that plan. Violet, no problem, he could sacrifice her or whatever was required any second he was asked to. He didn't have anything against her, but he didn't have any particular reason to want to save her, either.

However... the snag was with Max. The teenaged boy was intoxicating. Literally, actually. And Armand found himself unable to stop from occasionally biting the alien, draining a little bit more of his blood each time. The boy was very pale. He was coming close to breaking the rules, to killing. And, somehow, at the same time, he knew he would fight Dahak if necessary to protect the alien boy. An odd sort of dual way of feeling, but Armand didn't worry about that much.

The vampire sat comfortably on the alter he'd set up. He'd been there for hours, unmoving. Max lay draped in his lap, and Armand played softly with his hair. Together, they sat, and waited. Max was conscious, but barely. He would likely be in a delerium induced by lack of blood, and the bond that had so ensnared the vampire. Armand showed no indication of letting him go anytime soon, if ever.

There was the girl there, too, of course. Violet. Such an intruiging, logical little creature. He had spent quite awhile busy with her mind, and knew nearly everything there was to know about her. Suddenly, he spoke. "Come here, little girl." His fingers continued to play gently with the hair of the boy draped in his lap. "Come here, I want to give you a candy."

He reached into his pocket, and knowing full well that she was allergic to peppermint, he pulled one of the candy's out. He'd gotten this just for this purpose. And entering the mind of the child, he compelled her towards him, compelled her to take the candy.

"Go, go, it's okay, just go,"

Max was in awe of this man’s courage and nobility and hated himself for his weakness…hated Armand for making him this weak and for daring to lay hands on this man. The alien boy wondered if this man was somehow from his world or a world near his…did others bond like this? If this ‘Doctor’ lived, Max wanted to spend time with him…maybe together they could even find a way to purge Armand from their souls. It would be a travesty to have that fiend surface every time he made love or even kissed.

Now the beautiful Asian woman was in front of him and she had his wrist. She, too, is so very brave. Max looked into her face and gave her a weak smile. He nodded his agreement to go. She and the Doctor have both risked so much for him and the girl and are strangers…the least he could do is not be difficult. “What is your name?”, Max asked her as they left the spa. “Please, you don’t know his strength…he is as strong as 20 men and he can read your mind…he can make you do things to”, he warned her, “How will you get the Doctor…I don’t want you hurt too!”.

Violet had gotten the hint from the older woman as she grabbed her kit (not knowing about the screwdriver falling out). She stumbled down the hall and somehow ended up back outside her room. Violet somehow got the door open and made it inside, locking it behind her (blame a flashback of Count Olaf for that). "Just want to pass out" she finally muses, in the state she was in she did not see the handprint on her throat. But once she hit the matress she was out like a light.

For now she figured she just hit her head while looking for parts. But someone would need to check on her in the next day or so.
