Arrival

"I can see Monty town!"

After nearly 3 hours of constant running, Alex finally came close enough to see the outline of Monty town, and he didn't like what he was seeing.

Smoke was rising from all over the town and fires encapsulated half of the town.

'I can't be too late, the Count needs living people to complete the sacrifice. This damage to the town has to be superficial. I still have another 3 hours before the sacrifice takes place.'

However while Alex was thinking, he spotted some battles off into the distance, causing carnage amidst the town.

"Is that…"

Alex immediately seemed to have recognised one of the combatants fighting, but he almost couldn't believe his eyes.

If he was seeing things correctly, then Martha was currently ensued in a battle with the Count, but what didn't make sense was the fact that the Count seemed to be injured somehow.

'This can't be right.'
