Richard stopped, still as stone, his eyes wide. Was that the voice of.. no, it couldn't be! Jessica said she was alone here! Was she.. lying to him this whole time? His mind whirled, and he forced himself to think of only what was happening then and now. He needed to either attack while catching the vampire off guard was even a remote possibility, or he needed to escape, and quickly. He didn't like his chances either way, but decided he might live a little longer if he didn't engage in combat, at least not today. Very slowly, very quietly, he began to back up, down the hall, away from the room the vampire was in.

Creeeeeeaaak.

He winced at the horrible sound, biting his tongue before he could curse and yell and tasting blood on his tongue. That was just his luck! Of COURSE he had to step on the ONE piece of wood in the floor that CREAKED. He turned tail and ran, knowing that the Count could already be on his tail.
