Hoping world will find out one day, how we battled the Vamwolves. The archenemies joined hands and blood. They developed resistance to sun and silver.
They never thought Emily – one of them would betray them. Together we discovered their weakness in brass. But only the last knob in my desk remains.
8 AM
Emily shared the biggest secret to save humanity. We are about to invoke Devil’s Vortex to pull all of them to hell. Doubt if we would survive.
8 PM
It worked – all gone. We will go soon. Emily revealed that she will finally reunite with her father.

What a nice catch on those missing knobs. It’s interesting how people find different things in a same photo. Great story.

Indrajit, Good story. Using a journal added a lot of atmosphere to this. I didn’t catch on to what Vamwolves meant until I read the comments. That’s quite original. Well written. 🙂 —Susan

I like how the olde worlde look of the desk gave you a sense of the character of the professor – I’m seeing a kind of Victorian gentleman adventurer 🙂

Actually Professor Timothy Elliot is a fictional Vampire Slayer – so I connected the old world look with the character and added the flavor of Emily to give it a twist ! 🙂
