"The carriage... belonged to Meier Link, the vampire." "I organized a search party of fifty men, but it was no use." "We couldn't find them." "We were ambushed." "Horsemen:" "Hyah!" "He took my sister and killed my friends." "That's just a down payment." "You'll get the rest when you find her... $10 million." "But you better move fast." "You've got some competition." "I've hired the Markus brothers, and they've got a head start on you." "I don't think so." "Huh?" "It may be too late for her." "Your sister may already have been tempted." "What then?"

" You're talking about your daughter!" " Alan, listen to me." "It's not easy to ask him for this, but it's something that must be done." "I'm sorry." "You understand."

"Well, here's to you, sheriff." "I'd buy you a drink, but" "Sheriff:" "Thank you, but no, thanks." "Oh, OK." "I was just gonna say you must be awfully busy with that new dunpeal hunter in the town now." "What dunpeal hunter?" "I'd like to buy that horse." "$300,000." "And if you don't like the price, go somewhere else." "Freeze!" "Put your hands where I can see 'em!" "Now!" "Sheriff, he paid good money for that." "Polk:" "What are you doing?" "Sheriff:" "Take your money and go." "[RIFLES COCK]" "Sheriff:" "We don't want you here." "We don't sell to dunpeals in this town." "Understand?" "Understand me, dunpeal?" "You understand." "Wait a minute." "That's my horse you're talking about there, and I'll sell it to whoever I want if they can afford the price I'm asking." "You can't do that." "We have laws against it, Polk- good laws- and for a damn good reason." "What laws?" "Sheriff:" "Don't play coy, Polk." "You know as well as I, dunpeals aren't allowed." "Not allowed." "Right." "I remember a time not that long ago when we had vampires and dunpeals both around here, but..." "Sheriff:" "And that's why we have the law!" "Listen to me whether you want to hear it or not." "You weren't even born when this happened." "Do yourself a favor and listen to the story." "I'm going to tell you about the time when the children were kidnapped." "There were ten children altogether-[SIPS]" "Yeah, I heard about that time." "The kidnappers turned out to be vampires, of course, and so the townspeople pooled their money to hire a vampire hunter." "They wanted the best." "And when the hunter came, he was a very strong and quiet man, and he did his job, too, which was to return the children safely back into their parents' homes." "It wasn't easy, but many vampires died by his hands before this job was over with." "And when it was over and the children were back home, the people attacked the man." "They said he was a dunpeal half-vampire himself, so they punished him." "Can't say I blame them for doing that." "You can't trust 'em." "That's all that's about." "They were right about that part, Polk." "He did the job." "I see, then, I'll have to take matters into my own hands." "Let him go!" "And what is that?" "Polk:" "What does it look like, idiot?" "Put down your guns!" "Polk, you can't know what you're doing." "Put it down." "I know exactly what I'm doing." "You don't know!" "Put it down now, you old fool!" "I would much rather be an old fool than what you are, sheriff." "Now, don't shoot." "I can tell you I won't think twice about using this weapon." "I might even enjoy it." "Get on your horse, stranger." "Thank you." "No." "It's only fitting I thank you." "It's the least I can do." "I may be just an old fool now, stranger, but I could never forget a face like yours." "And I'll never forget what you done for me backthen." "That's right." "I was one of them kids." "And I always felt bad about that." "The way you was treated." "How nobody stopped you." "Nobody thanked you." "Instead, the ignorant bastards ran you right out of our town." "So it's true, isn't it, what they say about you dunpeals?" "You don't age." "Now, go." "I'm getting tired." "[coueus]" "[STARTLED GASPS]" "Where's Benge?" "What's taking him so long?" "Well, the horses are rested now." "We better go." "Come on." "Master, what is it?" "May I help you, sir?"

"[TRICKLING WATER]" "[BIRDS SINGING]" "[SLIGHT GASP]" "I am D, a hunter." "Your father sent me." "Don't be afraid." "I won't hurt you." "You sit in the sunlight." "You must not be changed." "So, why do you stay with him?" "Last night in the carriage, you called out his name." "Why did you call for him?" "I suppose my father has not told you that I'm in love with Meier." "You don't know who he is." "You can't be in love with him." "Well, I am." "If you only knew how good he's been to me." "I love him." "[PLINK]" "Please believe me." "No one else will." "D:" "You don't understand." "He is what he is, Charlotte." "You can't change him." "He'll take you in time, and when that happens, I will have to kill you." "Fine." "Kill me then." "I would rather die than to go anywhere without him." "Don't take me back there!" "I mean it!" "I simply could not live without Meier." "Leila:" "How sweet that is." "Ha!" "She loves a vampire." "So very sweet." "Idiot!" "You stupid girl!" "Get up!" "We're going!" "Leave me alone!" "You'll do what I say!" "Do you have any idea how many people have died at the hands of your beloved Meier, this vampire you want to protect?" "None!" "You fool!" "And you!" "You stay right where you are, my friend." "Sorry, but I really don't want to have to share any of my profits." "You understand, don't you?" "It's business." "Above you." "Charlotte:" "Aah!" "[GROANING]" "Left Hand:" "What's wrong?" "Tell me!" "Left Hand:" "Too much sun!" "I warned you about the heat, but you don't listen!" "Come on!" "You can't survive unless you dig a hole!" "You need to bury yourself!" "Oh!" "Ha ha ha ha!"

"All right." "Well, take care." "Stay in touch." "Borgoff out." "[BEEP]" "[THUNDER]" "Leila:" "Ha!" "The tables have turned." "Uhh!" "[YELLING]" "No!" "Now, that cleared my head." "I really should return the favor, don't you think, honey?" "[SCREAMING]" "[GROANING]" "[D GROANING]" "Don't get any ideas." "Hey, I'm just trying to stay dry here." "If there was any other place to go, believe me, I'd be there." "As soon as the rain lets up," "I'll be gone from here and from you." "I think I can guess your problem." "Your family was the victim of vampires." "You don't know what you're talking about." "You don't know anything about it." "D:" "All right." "Perhaps I don't." "This stupid thing, it bothers me." "You really are a weird one, you know that?" "In spite of being a dunpeal hunter and all that that entails." "How did you know about my mother?" "D:" "You called her name, remember?" "Leila:" "She was kidnapped by vampires." "My father went after her." "He was trying to rescue her, so they killed him." "And after a while, my mother returned, but she wasn't my mother anymore." "She'd been changed." "The people in the village stoned her to death while I watched." "After that, I left home." "I met the Markus brothers and joined with them." "I wanted to be a hunter to avenge my parents' deaths." "I've seen many terrible things since then- lives destroyed, families devastated, hopes crushed." "Every time, it seems a vampire is to blame." "I can understand why you'd choose to do it, but the life of a hunter's no kind of life." "It's the only life I'm any good for now, and it looks like it's the only life you've ever known, so I suggest we make a pact." "Since we're both in it for the long haul, whoever dies first, the other one can come and bring flowers to their grave." "How's that?" "It's the rain." "Makes me sentimental." "I don't know why I should care about that." "It's just I love flowers, and I don't think I'll be getting any." "I'm all alone, after all." "We have that much in common, don't we?" "That we're both hunters and we're both alone?" "Oh, well." "I'm being silly." "It doesn't really matter." "D:" "I'll do it." "I'll bring you flowers if I survive this, but I don't expect to." "Oh, stop." "I didn't really mean it when I said that." "And anyway, I don't really understand why you should keep on doing this." "Because I'm a dunpeal." "I don't get to have a life, not like you." "Well, with the rainstorm last night, they can't be too far away." "We're even now, dunpeal." "Understand?" "[BEEPING]" "Kyle:" "I have a very bad feeling about this." "Borgoff:" "How so?" "I think I finally figured it out, Borgoff." "Borgoff:" "Well, I'm sure you're right, if you're thinking they're headed for the castle." "Yeah, that's right, the castle- the Castle of Chaythe." "What are you thinking?" "We can't go in there!" "It would be suicide!" "It would be insane!" "What are you now, afraid of a little insanity?" "Since when have we been sane?" "We just have to get to them before they reach the castle." "There's a bridge up ahead." "That's where we intercept the carriage." "I remember that trick from the time we got those vampires at Keldo." "Yeah. it worked that time, and it can work again now." "Leila, come in." "Come in, Leila." "Over." "Leila:" "Yeah, it's me." "icopy." "What's up?" "Leila:" "I'm on my way." "[BEEP]" "[EXPLOSION]" "Uhh!" "[RUMBLING]" "Borgoff:" "Don't move." "I'm warning you!" "Try anything funny, and you'll be blown to smithereens." "You want to try it?" "I didn't think so." "We just want the girl." "[GASPS]" "Kyle:" "Hello there!" "She's still human!" "Come on, get out of there!" "Now!" "Kyle:" "Borgoff, she won't come!" "We're doing you a favor!" "[HEARTBEAT AND BEEPING]" "Kyle:" "Come on!" "I said get out of there!" "Uhh!" "[GROWLS]" "[SPLASH]" "Let that be a lesson to you, you cowardly Barbarois animal!" "Kyle:" "Borgoff, look!" "Borgoff!" "What?" " What the..." " [GASPS]" "What, is this guy crazy?" "Doesn't he know he can't exist outside here in the sunlight?" "I won't let you take her!" "Oh, yeah?" "Uhh!" "[WHIMPERS]" "Thanks a lot." "You're making our job a lot easier." "Hot enough for you?" "It's what you deserve!" "Uhh!" "[BEEP3]" "Kyle:" "Over here, hot stuff." "Hoo hoo!" "Look at him burn!" "[LAUGHS]" " Borgoff:" "Here, a little something to help you walk." " Charlotte:" "No!" "How does that feel?" "Kyle:" "Way to go, moron." "[LAUGHS] That got him!" "Borgoff:" "What's the matter?" "Don't you" "[LAUGHTER]" "Look at him!" "Kyle:" "Hey, where do you think" "Borgoff:" "Why'd you let her go?" "Charlotte:" "I love you." "Uhh!" "I can't go on without you." "Leila:" "What?" "!" "Borgoff, we should just let her kill herself, and then we can finish him off." "What do you think about that idea?" "We get the money if she's dead or alive." "Borgoff:" "Hey, you're right!" "OK." "[SCREAMING AND YELLING]" "Stop it!" "Uhh!" "[ROARS]" "Borgoff:" "Kyle!" "I'll blow you to hell!" "Aah!" "What?" "!" "No!" "[GRUNTING]" "I don't want you to worry about these wounds of mine." "They will heal." "Then we shall go to the City of Night in Distant Stars." "When we go there, we can be alone and free to love each other." "It's true." "Believe me." "We'll be there soon." "[GROANING]" "Grove:" "We're it now." "We're the only ones left, Borgoff." "We should just give it up." "If we make it into that castle, none of us will make it out alive." "Borgoff:" "We can't quit now." "We owe it to Kyle and to Nolt to keep going on." "Listen, Borgoff" "Borgoff:" "Shut up!" "I won't hear it!" "Grove:" "Leila, what do you think?" "Grove, they fear us." "They fear us because they know our reputation, that we never give up and we never can." "If we quit now, we might as well quit the business, and I can't do that." "I won't do it, till every last one of them is gone." "[RUMBLING]" "Machira:" "Master, do you hear?" "He's coming." "Machira:" "The castle is nearby." "I'll stay here and deal with him." "[HOWLING]" "Left Hand:" "We're getting close." "The Castle of Chaythe." "Soon we'll be able to see it." "The home of Carmila, the Bloody Countess." "You've heard of her." "For 5,000 years, her rule of terror lasted, and then that was that." "Your father, the Vampire King, grew angry." "He was impatient with her vanity, offended by her bloodlust, her gluttony." "He grew so tired that he killed her while she slept, impaling her on his sword, and that was it for her." "[SNIFFS] Except she haunts the place now with phantoms and demons, but you don't care about that, do you?" "But I bet I know what really gets to you, dunpeal, eh?" "What really gets to you." "The thought of those two lovebirds giving birth to another dunpeal, huh?" "That's it, isn't it?" "See?" "I know you." "I know how you think." "I know how you feel." "I know every move that you make." "You can't-uhh!" "[BATS SCREECHING]" "[SCREAMS]" "[ROARS]" "Machira:" "I'm glad we could meet at last, hunter D." "You are a worthy opponent." "D:" "Who hired the Barbarois?" "Who were you working for?" "Uhh!" "It was Carmila who hired us, and as a Barbarois, my duty has been fulfilled." "Now I can die in peace." "[GAGGING AND CHOKING]" "Carmila:" "I gather from your letter that you've had a rather difficult time." "I think I can understand what it's like." "Love is not unique to humans, you know." "We vampires are very susceptible." "I hope I can be of service." "Meier:" "We're very grateful, Carmila." "You both must be exhausted." "Perhaps you should rest first." "I'm sure that the young lady would like to freshen up." "Hmm." "Carmila:" "You've probably heard rumors about me, but I can assure you they all stem from jealousy and envy." "I'm not the "Bloody Carmila" they like to portray me as." "Now, behold." "Carmila:" "That's it." "That is the ship." "It will take you to the City of the Night, where you can live peacefully at last." "You can be happy there." "There was a time, many years ago, when every castle had a ship like this one and the night sky was full of their flashing lights." "Those were the days when vampires flourished and a love like yours was not so desperately impossible." "So different from today." "Our numbers dwindling, hunted and alone, we are hopelessly misunderstood," "but you two seem to have beaten the odds." "I'm very, very happy for you." "Carmila:" "The ship hasn't been used in years." "I've no idea if it will fly safely, but I'm sure that's a risk you're prepared to take." "Meier:" "We're very grateful." "I only wish I could go with you." "Meier:" "You look so beautiful." "Charlotte:" "Mmm." "Why stop?" "I want you, Meier." "I want all of you." "Why not?" "You don't know what it's like, Charlotte, to live forever in darkness eternal, forever thirsting for blood despite your best intention." "I can't imagine that life for you." "Not for you, Charlotte." "You're so selfish, Meier." "I carry a heavy weight on my conscience..." "Those villagers and the bounty hunter and my family, they still mourn my loss, Meier." "It wasn't your doing, Charlotte." "It was my fault entirely." "Well, then we're both to blame, because we can't know happiness, not anymore." "I wanted you to be happy, Meier, and so I abandoned my father and my brother for you." "But their pain set the wheels in motion for our pain, and so on and on it goes." "Charlotte:" "All we have is each other now, and I want to be close to you." "Without that, we have nothing." "All the pain I've caused and all the agony I feel is nothing now." "And you are everything to me, my love." "We'll talk more on our trip to the stars, if that's all right with you." "There is some unfinished business" "I have to attend to." "Do not leave this room." "Understand?" "D" "Listen, Meier." "The woman says she wants to go back home." "I don't believe it." "[GASPS]" "[GASPS]" "Meier:" "Charlotte." "Left Hand:" "I don't know." "Something's not right." "Of course, you don't have to take my word for it." "You can judge for yourself." "Borgoff:" "Let's go." "Leila." "Don't go." "Leila, don't go in there." "If you go in there, you're never coming back." "Leila:" "Oh, I'm coming back." "No!" "[MOANS]" "Borgoff, on headset:" "Leila, check upstairs." "I'm on it." "Leila:" "Nice hat." "[BORGOFF GROWLS]" "I know you hate me, D." "Please try and understand." "I loved your father." "What choice did I have?" "Huh?" "!" "[GASPS]" "Ahh!" "[MOANING]" "Nolt!" "Kyle!" "Hey!" "I don't believe it." "You two sure are a sight for sore eyes." "Ugh!" "Leila:" "What are you doing?" "Get up." "Why aren't you listening?" "I said get up." "Go away." "I wanna be alone." "Get out of here!" "Can you forgive me, D?" "D?" "I know it's been lonely for you." "I was lonely, too, until you came along." "Did you hear, D?" "[SOBBING]" "It's OK, honey." "It's OK to cry." "I know." "I know how you feel." "It wasn't your fault." "It wasn't." "Yes, it was!" "Let go!" "Wait!" "Ugh." "It's just an illusion." "Carmila's playing with us." "[CARMILA LAUGHS]" "Carmila:" "Excellent." "What fun." "I haven't had this much fun in centuries." "You don't mind, do you?" "It just makes things so much more interesting." "You're doing very well, by the way, very well, indeed." "The woman." "Where are you hiding her?" "[GASPS]" "Leila:" "Borgoff, what are you doing?" "We don't have time for this." "Leila, are you in love with this dunpeal?" "Are you crazy?" "What is wrong with you?" "Borgoff!" "[GASPS]" "Dunpeal, drop your weapon." "Drop it now!" "Grrr!" "She took you in, didn't she?" "Grr!" "She'll die!" "I'm warning you, dunpeal." "Don't come any closer." "Enough!" "Now you die!" "Aaah!" "No!" "Aaaah!" "Leila:" "Grove!" "Grove!" "No!" "Lei..." "la..." "[MACHINES BEEPING]" "[FLATLINE TONE]" "Left Hand:" "Look!" "She's coming!" "Carmila!" "The spirit of Carmila!" "[STRAINING]" "Carmila:" "Dunpeal hunter." "Your mother was human, but your father was a vampire, and you have betrayed his ancient blood!" "You side with humans against us!" "Our people are facing extinction, and you're contributing to their demise." "You stalk and kill your own ancestors, dunpeal." "[STRAINING]" "You should be ashamed!" "Your human self is your weaker self." "Humans are nothing more than livestock." "We prey on them as they prey on beasts." "This is the rule of nature!" "Your time is coming to an end." "Your kind must face extinction." "You cannot survive." "You must die." "That is the rule of nature." "Ah." "Very strong words for a dunpeal, but you seem to forget our spirits are eternal." "No, Carmila." "Nothing lasts forever." "I see." "I should have known better than to reason with your kind, dunpeal hunter." "I guess my only option is to use force." "Aaaah!" "[ROARING]" "[GASPS]" "Aaah!" "Carmila:" "No!" "This can't happen!" "[MOANING]" "[GASPING, CHOKING]" "[SHRIEKING]" "Aaaah!" "Aaaah!" "Are you the son of the Vampire King?" "Who are you?" "Who are you, dunpeal?" "Such power." "[PANTING]" "[CRACKING]" "[COCKS]" "Charlotte, come back." "I need you." "Please come back." "Mmm." "Ohh." "Darling, is that you?" "Oh, yes." "It's me, Meier." "I'm so happy, Meier, because we are together now, at last." "Together at last." "You made me happy, Meier." "You let me dream." "You let me dream of our beautiful trip to the stars." "Our dream." "Our beautiful, wonderful dream." "It's not a dream." "We are going to those stars, Charlotte." "Oh, my dear one." "You and I will get away from here." "We will fly together to the City of the Night where we were meant to be free from all of this." "Where you can rest, my love, finally, and be free." "Yes." "Freedom... at last." "[SOBBING]" "Meier:" "My precious, precious love." "Let's go..." "Away from here." "D:" "Stop right there, Meier." "I'm taking her back, back to her family, who loved her." "[CRACKING]" "[WALLS CRUMBLING]" "She knew I loved her best of all." "You can't understand it." "You've never loved a human." "D:" "I've never killed one, either." "[STONES CLATTER]" "You struggle to resist this nature of ours, but it can't last forever, D." "The urge for their blood is stronger." "If that day comes, then another will hunt me." "It's as simple as that." "Raaaahhh!" "What a waste, a sad waste." "Enough of killing." "Enough of misery and death." "I've had enough." "[CRACKING]" "I've had enough." "Uhh!" "[CLINK]" "[CLINK]" "Why... did you miss" "my heart?" "She's dead." "The ring is all I need." "I'll take it to her father as proof." "[SIGHS]" "Mind giving me a ride just as far as the next town?" "I'd appreciate it." "That reward money would rightfully be mine, you know." "But, hey, I'm generous." "I'll let you keep it just this one time." "[ROCKET ENGINES IGNITING]" "Where is he taking her?" "D:" "Away from here." "Away." "[ENGINES LABORING]" "Fly." "Come on!" "You can make it." "Come on!" "Fly away" "Priest:" "Dearly beloved, we are gathered here in this resting place to bid farewell to our sister." "Into your gentle arms we commend her gracious spirit." "Take her to yourself and give her safe haven, andthough she struggled in life, now she knows your blessed peace." "For all who question will find answers, and all who love will find contentment, joy, and peace eternal." "For now we see as through a glass darkly, but then we shall see clearly, face to face." "Mister." "Wait!" "Mister, wait!" "Um, excuse me, sir, but I was wondering if you knew my grandmother Leila." "Yes, it's you, isn't it?" "My grandmother told me about you." "So, I'd be honored if you'd come to our house." "My dad would be so happy." "Please?" "I appreciate your kindness." "Oh, come on." "We don't live very far." "I just came here to keep a promise to an old friend of mine." "She was afraid no one would mourn her death." "I'm glad she was so wrong." "Huh?" "Oh." "I guess I see." "Anyway, thank you for coming, sir." "Good-bye." "GOOd-bye!" "Left Hand:" "Well, that was nice." "You're not so bad after all." "You just dress bad."
