I'm Not a Savior, I'm a Vampire (Jalex)

Kinky

When Ryan said he was bringing a map, Jack hadn't expected a poorly sketched out floor plan of a six story castle with three small houses on the property.

He also hadn't expected a fucking crypt to be beneath said castle, nor had he expected that crypt to also contain a dungeon below it.

There's a lot of things you don't expect from your friends, you know? And some of those things include vampirism and living in a goddamn medieval castle!

"Does everyone know the plan?" Ryan asks, pulling Jack from his thoughts.
"Yes," Jack says without thinking. "But, uh, let's go over it again 'cause Rian wasn't listening."

Rian glares at Jack with a look that basically says Jack's as good as dead. Ryan R. simply rolls his eyes and starts again.

"There's a dungeon underneath the crypt which is technically the basement," Ryan repeats begrudgingly. "Alex could be there, or he could be in one of the many tower rooms on the top floor."
Ryan points to an area at the center of the map where a small house next to what looks like a small lake. "This house is the only entrance to the crypt, and the door's locked with twelve different locks."
"Why?" Jack asks. "That's so excessive!"
"We have millions of dollars worth of valuable history down there. And the proof of like fifteen unsolved murders from a hundred years ago. And several dead relatives. We like to keep our privacy."

He then points to what looks like the front entrance of the castle. "There's only one way in," Ryan explains, "and that's through the front entrance. But we have cameras in the front room and outside the door. And at the front gate. I have a key to get in, but I need to sneak in if we're going to find Alex."

Ryan then turns to Zack. "You know your job, right?"
"Turning off the alarm system, yeah."
"Good. And Rian?"
"Keeping watch," says Rian D.
"Perfect. Jack, when the cameras and security system are all off, you're going into the crypt. Alex might be in the dungeon, so I built a map. Zack is going with you when he's done with his job because you don't stand a chance against Brendon on your own."
Jack crosses his arms with a frown. "I don't see why. I'm a vampire now."
"You also don't know how to use any of the powers you have, nor do you understand your own strengths and weaknesses yet. Brendon can move at the speed of light and he can beat the hulk in an arm wrestling match. Zack's going with you. End of discussion."

Jack rolls his eyes and pouts like a toddler, but doesn't protest much more.

"I'm going to fly to the top and get in through a window-"
"Wait," Jack interrupts, "you can fly?"
"Flying is a thing I learned as a young child. I was born a vampire and actually turned Brendon shortly after he turned 22. Every vampire has the capability of turning into a bat, so yes, I can fly."
Jack gapes at him. "Can I fly?"
"With a bit of training, yeah. But not yet." Ryan shakes his head. "Anyway. I'll fly up and get in through a window because I can beat Brendon in a fight no problem. Rian, you stand guard and make sure no one checks the security system. If Brendon does head over there, we will hear you scream and I will be there to rescue you as soon as I possibly can, but you might end up a vampire."
Rian scoffs. "So basically I'm doomed?"
"No," Ryan R. explains. "Brendon doesn't even know how it works. He'll call me to complain and then investigate the castle to make sure no one's breaking in."
"And what if Alex is dead or something?"
"He's not," Ryan states. "Worst case scenario, he's a sex slave chained to a bed post."
"What?" The other three men say in unison.
Ryan rolls his eyes. "Brendon's always been into weird shit and he's always horny. It wouldn't surprise me. Alex is probably fine."

Jack eyes the man warily for a moment before nodding. "This is gonna fail, but we have to save Alex."
The rest of the group agrees.
"We'll take my car," Rian D. says.

*****

He's done it. Alex finally figured it out! He's a bat!

Yeah, he's trapped in a room with one window and he shocked himself back into regular human-ish form, but hey, at least he knows it's possible.

But his excitement is short lived. Brendon is already unlocking the door by the time Alex is sitting on the bed again.

The vampire doesn't say anything when he marches into the room, just grumbles under his breath as he grabs Alex by the wrist and pulls him out of the room.

"Hey!" Alex protests. "What the fuck is your-"
"Shut your damn mouth," Brendon snaps. "I told I'd show you the ropes and you're still trying to escape. I can't just give you your old life back! You took the only person I actually cared about!"
Alex frowns. "Ryan? But I-"
"I told you to shut up!" Brendon yells as he pushes Alex to the ground. "You're an asshole who can't fucking listen!" Brendon grabs Alex's wrist again and nearly drags him down five flights of stairs and out of the castle. "I should've have killed you when I had the chance!"
"So fucking do it then!" Alex shouts as they walk past a pretty nice looking fountain in the courtyard. "It's better than spending eternity here with you!"

Brendon freezes in his tracks, his death grip on Alex's wrist holding the younger vampire in place.
He turns slowly to Alex who is basically trembling as he realizes his mistake.

"Well, if spending eternity here is your worst nightmare..." Brendon's voice trails off as he starts walking quickly down another set of stares to get to a lower platform sitting just above the water level of a small lake. Brendon then pulls Alex through a door with twelve locks and then another door.

The next room is much less a room and more so a maze built of rock walls and the smell of dust, mildew, and death.

Brendon puts a hand over Alex's eyes as he pulls him through the maze and down a set of stairs. Only once Alex sees a row a metal cell doors does Alex actually fully comprehend just how bad his situation is.

The elder vampire unlocks one cell and then pulls Alex inside. Then he pulls Alex to one wall where metal cuffs hang  from a hook in the stone.

Brendon pushes a now terrified Alex to his knees and then cuffs each of his wrist to the wall above his head.
He smiles a sinister smirk.

"Enjoy your stay," Brendon says sweetly. Then he gets really close so that he's whispering directly into Alex's ear. "Because those cuffs are silver and stop your powers from working. And you're not going anywhere."
