Ivory Carpathia was the sexiest little vamp in Transylvania. Everybody knew it. With her long raven hair, dark eyes, those luscious lips. Especially with that little trickle of blood she always had running from the corner of those succulent lips. It was really just a trick she did with lip gloss, 'cause everyone knows you can't leave a trickle of real blood like that, it's unsanitary. But everyone also knows that there is just nothing in the world sexier than a trickle of blood running down the corner of a pretty vamp's lip. Yeah, she had a face that every man from Brasov to Kolomyya dreamed of waking up to. And that face was just the beginning.
Her body was made for fantasies. If Venus di Milo was alive today and saw Ivory's body she would die of envy. Long, shapely legs that ended at a butt you just wanted to put your face in and go BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB! A svelte waistline capped with a pair of the perkiest breasts ever to rub the inside of a corset. Every man in Romania longed for those days in late October that were just warm enough for t-shirts and just cool enough to turn the ladies' headlights on. 'Cause that was the time of year that everyone invited Ivory for a Halloween party and talked her into bobbing for Adam's Apples.
Yeah. She was the hot number and everyone knew it. Everyone, that is, except Akem.
Now Akem was one of the oldest vamps on earth and despite all the undiluted vampiric blood and mystical abilities he possessed it was becoming clear that he was losing his vision and was more than a little feeble minded. Not to mention the fact that an ex-coffin-mate and witch named Baba Yaga had cursed him with a goat's head 1733 years ago for drinking an entire barrel of elder blood the she was saving to make sausage. He was angry about it then and still is. His anger has turned him into a cantankerous old vamp that seemed to like no one and the feeling is mutual.
Though most would say his primary purpose is pissing other vamps off, Akem's vice and real purpose within the realm Patra Neampt is gambling. He runs a sort of shell game. Three chests each containing abilities vampires are wan to use. Now some of these abilities are rather lame and the sort that baby vamps learn before they can even fly and thereby virtually useless to any vamp worth his grave dirt. Others are less common and slightly more useful and more still range from rare and powerful to legendary and godlike. The gamble? Pick a chest, reach in and grab something. No peeking. No second chances. At least none without a bribe.
The problem is, Akem, being the angry, blind, feeble minded, cantankerous old goat he is he had inadvertently rigged the game. Some days he forgot to put the better abilities in the chests. Some days he just decided it's not worth the effort to put them in. Often he couldn't tell the difference between a Pyrokenesis and a bic lighter. And on other days he left them out just for spite.
Fekkin' goat.
Now Ivory was making her daily trek down to Akem's dungeon to try her luck and wringing her hands in worry because she was really in need of a legendary ability to for a mission she was on. On her way down the steps she ran into Damatria who was cursing a blue streak and stomping out of the dungeon. Now Damatria was a beauty in her own right and some said she had even seen Akem smile once, in an odd, lascivious, goat-like sort of way.
"Oh, Damatria, Boo-Boo-kitty, Muffywumpus, Chocolate delight, sweeter than anything, as always." Ivory cooed. "I just don't know what I'm gonna do. I really need a Corrosion spell to get through this next mission set. There are rumors that you get special favors from the goat and..."
"Look, sister," Damatria growled, "That's just a rumor. I never let him touch me. And I get no 'Special' favors."
"I'm sorry, Damatria." Ivory pouted a little. A trick that always seemed to work on anyone male or female, but not goat. "I didn't mean to say you... like...
DID
anything. I was just wondering if you knew a way to get in his good graces."
Damatria softened a little, "I know you didn't mean anything. Sorry I snapped at you. But that damned goat-headed horses ass has given me four freakin' Bone Spikes this week and now he gives me Wolf's Hunger? Please. I mean as if I really needed that crap. I so want to break off one of his horns and stick it right up his..."
"I get it."
"Sideways at that."
Ivory put a finger to her elder clan mate's lips, "Snuggle muffin, I know exactly what you mean. He's never given me anything but crap. But I really need to get Corrosion from him. Any ideas?"
Damatria reached up and gently pulled Ivory's finger away, "Well I did get Mummification from him once. Not from the chests, it was in a bag behind the curtain."
"Wow!"
"I know! Right?"
"So how'd you do it?"
Damatria blushed a bit. One of her own special talents and quite a feat considering the cold blooded nature of vampires. "Well, it was really an accident, to be honest. I had pulled a Demon Summoning from the chest but when I pulled it out it caught on the lid, dropped and broke on the floor. Well, Akem just shook his head and told me to get some super glue. Ya break it, ya bought it, yanno?
"So, I bent over to pick it up and I guess I was showin' a little butt cheek, 'cause I heard him kinda gasp like men do when they see somethin' like that. Cept it sounded like a choking goat. Well it startled me and I turned around and stood up real quick. I could tell what was on his puny, horny headed mind right then.
"But worse yet, what I didn't realize was that when I stood up like that it popped the buttons on my bustier and my boobs were showin'."
"Get out!"
"I WAS out! And the goat was getting' his own bone spike, let me tell ya."
Ivory's jaw dropped. "Oh my GOD! What did you do?"
Damatria grinned, "What do you think I did? I shook 'em at him. Poor old goat would've had a heart attack if he had a heart."
"No way!" Ivory grabbed Damatria's hands, "So what did he do?"
"The old goat dropped trou right there. It was pathetic. Said he wanted to... touch 'em."
Ivory gasped, "You didn't!"
"Well, I said no way at first but then I got an idea. I told him I'd let him touch 'em if he gave me somethin' better than a broken Demon Summoning incantation. I thought his eyes were gonna pop right out of his head. He started stammering and stuttering like he hadn't seen a pair of boobs in a thousand years. Come to think of it he prob'ly hadn't. Anyway, he managed to blurt out there was a bag behind the curtain with a Mummification in it and it was mine if I let him play with 'em for a while."
"You are so bad."
"I know. Right?" Damage grinned again, "But when he tried to walk towards me he tripped on those fancy pants of his, fell and knocked himself out."
