Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening/Night(whichever one it is in your part of the world),
Hi! I'm here to leave a quick review!!
Anyway let's get right to it,
"What do you mean by grave danger?" She asked in misunderstood voice. Victor shook his head, "They wernt lying when they said you didnt know." He said to himself. "What do I not know?" She asked now not knowing if she wanted to know. "You are the great daughter of Dracula, the father of all vampires, evil and good alike." She gasped, "What?!" She felt as if she were going to faint. He gave her a look, "Its true, you are the only left living of the true line of the first vampire of our creation, did you not know?" She turned her back to him. How could she be Dracula daughter, it just wasnt true. She turned back around,"How this come to be?" she whisperd. "When Dracula took Mena Harker and made her his bride they joined and you were conceived, but fear of you being killed by Van Helsing kept them from making you known to anyone;therefore you were sent away here to Robert and faimly for protection somehow Van Helsings great grandson has found out your location and is coming for you" He told her. "What did I do to him?" she asked him. "Just being related to Dracula had made you his enemy, he is coming for you and he will try to kill you." She looked at sky and relized it had suddenly became to quiet, she then got a bad feeling. "We have to get back to the compound, something doesnt feel right." she said to him fear rising in chest. They both took off in a run for the compound, Maria smelled the smoke before she reached it.
Okay...well having read the earlier part I will say this is a bit out the blue to be starting this part off like this. If you think of this as a cohesive, this seems like far too dramatic of a declaration to make given the light atmosphere of earlier. It makes you wonder why it took so long for this person to get to this. So in terms of that you might need to rethink a couple of things, but otherwise I think you've got a solid enough start there. It most definitely gets your attention very fast there. You do a pretty solid job in terms of letting us know the impact of this without infodumping too much and slowing the pace of things down too much, so that's quite nicely done.
As they rounded the bend she saw where the smoke was coming from, it was the compound
She began to yell for Robert but was receiving no answer. Suddenly something caught her eyesight, there on a tree was letter. Maria ran to it and took it from the tree, it read if you ever want to see your precious vampire scum again you will meet me in two days in Venice Italy near the big church with a cross out front, and it was signed Van Helsing the third.
Ok, this makes for a pretty neat little cliffhanger there. I think you've done a pretty solid job in terms of that. It does make you curious enough to want to know what comes next, although once again the pacing there is a touch on the faster side. I think you're doing a good job in terms of hitting the right notes for these piece but the gaps between them are a bit too large at the moment.
Aaaaand that's it for this one.
As always remember to take what you think was helpful and forget the rest.
Stay Safe
Harry
