Mary needed to figure out what was going on, something like this had never happened before in her land. She opened the door in a panic and rushed into the hallway. The windows lining the wall illuminated her path in crimson. There was something amiss, Mary felt. Not a single sound could be heard, it was as if the entire world stopped. Not a single tree in the garden outside swayed in the breeze, nor was any chirp heard from the crickets. The most unnerving of all things was the lack of any commotion inside the mansion. There should be around a dozen servants and her family, but none of them could be seen or heard.

"My My! I found a specimen most perfect!" a voice called out seemingly from within her mind. Mary spun around to find the source of the voice only to be met with darkness. Mary felt as if she were being drained of life cried out in pain as her body and mind alike shuddered and collapsed. A swarm of shadowy bats descended upon her from the darkness. "Henceforth you shall be my thrall, a vessel to hold my power, an actor to perform my bidding." Mary heard that voice hammering itself into her mind again with such overwhelming authority that she had no choice but to give up.
Mary woke up covered in a cold sweat, as if waking from a horrible nightmare. Looking around, she realized it was still the middle of the night and she was still in her room. Her room had no hint of crimson moonlight like before. She looked out the window to make sure of it but stopped short after seeing something unbelievable. A pair of rubies stared back. "No, that can't be right. My eyes are- " Mary turned to look into her mirror and found her now crimson eyes and long fangs displayed. What happened last night wasn't a dream.
