After Echo had sneaked out of the shop, he changed himself into a black raven and flew towards the castle. With great speed, he flew through the air and landed on the balcony, from where he turned into an ant and went through the tiny gaps.
Once he was in the room, he turned into his vampire form and looked around the place with his eye, that could see in the dark. He saw Evelyn sleeping on the bed peacefully and then he saw the cradle.
He walked up to it and looked inside of it, to see a baby girl with silver hair. She was wearing a white onesie and was tucked under the small blanket.
Echo looked at her daughter and then gently moved his hands towards her. He picked her up very gently, so she wouldn't wake up. He held her in one arm and with the other, he took out a letter, which he put in the cradle.
He then walked towards the door and opened it. Before leaving, he looked at Evelyn and with a ghastly voice, he called out to her.
"Evelyn."
Evelyn opened her eyes and heard the door being closed. She blinked a few times and looked around, before getting up. She walked towards the cradle, to look at her daughter. But when she got there, she didn't see little Elena anywhere and instead, she saw a letter there. Immediately, she started to think worst, as she reached towards the letter.
On it, it read:
"If you want to see her again, come to the room, where you first appeared after summoning. Call anyone else and she dies along with everyone else here."
Without even thinking through, she ran towards the room, where she was told. Through the hallways and stairs, she ran. Only stopping, when she got to the door of the room, which she slowly opened. It creaked a little, as it was opened. The room itself, was pretty dark and very hard to see. The moment, she stepped in, the door behind her closed and suddenly, all of the torches lit up.

Now, he could see her daughter being held by a man in black clothes.
"Who are you? Why are you doing this?"she asks her with a shaky tone.
"What's her name?"he asks her with a changed voice.
"Elena."she answers, fearing that he may hurt her, If she doesn't answer.
"Elena huh."he mutters and starts to walk towards the middle of the summoning circle. He stops exactly at the middle and puts Elena on the ground. He then steps back and says"Go get her. She has done her part."
Evelyn immediately ran towards Elena and picked her up. She glared at him and asked"What part?"
"Bringing the mother of my daughter here."he said and pulled off his hood, revealing to be Echo.
"Now Nox."he said and the circle started to glow.
"Why Echo?"she asked him, before she disappeared from the room.
"Because Elena doesn't have to live here."he mutters, before drawing his dagger and an evil smile forming on his face.
On Earth, Evelyn suddenly appeared in a room with Elena in her hands. She looked around with a shocked face and then realising where she is, she muttered.
"I'm in my room. On Earth.....I'm back on Earth."she muttered, before falling on her knees, while laughing.
As for Echo, he had a few things to do, before going back and enjoy his lovers. He was one goal and that is, to begin controlling the Kingdom from the shadows. And who petter for it, then an eldest daughter, who is going to lose his entire family in a year. She would be a cold leader and exactly the one, he wants.
So, he sneaks into Elyzas room and sees her laying on the bed, sleeping. Her hands are over her stomach, as she lays on his back.
Echo walks up to her and sits down on the bed. He looks at her beautiful face, before opening his mouth, revealing long fangs. The next moment, he bites her neck, waking her up. She can't do anything, as her body is being transformed. She tries to struggle, but soon falls unconscious.
After a few moments, he removes his teeth and thinks'She won't remember anything what just happened. She will live his life normally and after his family is dead, she will rule this kingdom and I will rule her.'
He puts his hand on her cheek and mutters"This what happens, If you try to control me. You become my slave, who can't disobey me."
She gently slaps it, before he disappears from the room, leaving her laying there.
The next day, the Heroes are in a slight panic, as they look all over the castle. They are looking for Evelyn, who has gone missing alongside with her daughter. The run around everywhere, but they find nothing. Their only healer is now gone and their already weakened group, has weakened even further. They can't kill any demon lords, as the only weapon that could, has been stolen and its wielder is dead. Now the only person, who kept them alive is missing.
They didn't want to admit it, but they were totally fucked now.
