[Somewhere in the vampire realm]
After the academy incident the special squad was alerted about the presence of some unusual activities. Coulter was the alpha, the leader of the squad who was appointed on the academy case. Although he could not find anything suspicious about Kayden other than he was an incapable vampire.
However the water dragon protected Kayden to stop Aiden from bullying him. It raised Coulter's suspicion and he intended to rewatch the footage of whole investigation sessions. He was sitting in his home waiting for his only daughter, Lydia to come back from the academy.
Coulter was appointed to solve the case but it irked him that something was missing from his sight. He was sure to find any clue or anything major from the clip which was recorded as usual during the investigation. Coulter played it for the fourth time by now to study every pattern and gesture of students and professors.

The school premises a jury of vampires clad in black suits, who seemed to be walking straight out of 'men in black' movie; stood around the pool to conduct some inspections. The academy had postponed the welcoming of new batch, because of the higher ups commands. The jury was specially designed to detect and follow the leads related to any foreign race present in the vampire realm.
Medusa and Malcolm's arrival had caused some changes with the internal barrier of the vampire realm. But it was still unknown which race or how many people had intruded, however the later surges of unusual energy in the school confirmed the presence of intervention.
"Are you certain this is the spot where the surges were caught?"
The head of the inspection jury demanded a confirmation from the beta in command. Coulter was a brawly man with a fierce intimidating look, whereas the beta was a lean confident guy holding a digital notepad in his hand.
"Yes, chief. The unusual energy was detected here, it's a dark aura which does not belong to the vampires. However I have already checked all the footage of this academy and found this."
The beta shoved the pad in front of the angry brawly man, who clearly saw the still water turning into a dragon and saving a kid.
The head, Coulter, frowned with surprise and confusion regarding the sight. While the rest members inspected all the backside of the academy in search of some clue, Coulter and his beta blankly stared at each other. The vampires had lost the art of summoning such beasts and crafting powerful magical spells.
It was certain that the entity who caused the spell was some foreign person, but the utter question remained there unanswered. Coulter took a few moments to come up with a reply, it was hard to guess which race could perform such feats.
The vampire realm hadn't been dealing with the outer world as whole, instead only a few agencies and institutes were allowed to move in and out. Hence the vampires were deliberately kept unaware regarding the weakness of their kingdom.
"Show this footage to the principal and get the details about this boy who is being bullied. He is our only lead to solve this mystery. We have to find out the intruder as soon as possible, before they go rogue or cause any havoc."
Coulter was well informed that the footage of the incident was intentionally left there intact in the academy's camera. The person who casted that spell wanted to challenge the vampires and to humiliate them. Medusa did not erase the part where she summoned the water dragon, however the rest of the clips were deleted and could not be recovered.
"Yes, chief!"
The beta took his leave acknowledging the urgency of the matter, the interlopers were to be found as soon as possible before the natural system of the vampire realm began to take its course.
Meanwhile he was occupied with crafting possible theories, the beta returned with Kayden's address. The rest of the inspecting members completed their search but found nothing else, other than Kayden's name and whereabouts.
[The clip ended here]
Coulter massaged his temples and threw the digital pad on the table in front of him. His worry and frustration increased gradually, it had been more than two weeks he was unable to find anything on Kayden. There was nothing unusual found about him even upon personally investigating Kayden.
He met Mr Jones and Kayden right after two days of the pool incident but found no dirt on their hands. Now another case had piled up making Coulter angry and annoyed for the first time in his life. Jack's murderer was still roaming around freely and yet have to be punished. But for that Coulter had to find out the killer which seemed impossible at that moment.
'I have to inform the faculty about this boy, he must have had some trading connection with the outer party. Although it's impossible for someone to cross the barrier without the permission letter.'
The idea of Kayden having any kind of bond with the interlopers did not cross Coulter's mind. Since the vampires had lost the ability to create those bonds, that was probably the only thought in Coulter's head.
Malcolm and Medusa had successfully mingled with the vampires without getting caught. However the presence of Ceres was the arrival of the chaos, since the man reeked evil from head to toe. It became evident to Medusa that her father was definitely not there for her but he was looking for the heir of the former succubus Queen.
Lydia's transformation was also a totally unexpected thing because she was the daughter of Coulter. The very same person who was appointed as in charge of Kayden's case. Kayden had unintentionally and unknowingly stirred trouble for himself by marking Lydia.
Whereas Medusa was no less than him in the particular regard, the succubus hypnotised Aiden to be her servant. Although their bond was neither blood related nor sexual, but caused by a powerful magical spell. But it did not make any difference that he belonged to some influential family which could do anything about their reputation!
