Of course, if he were in the dungeons, then he would also have found where she was.
"Brandi?"

*Her heart fluttered in excitement and she strained against the bonds again.*
"Raziel! Are you alright?" *Slight panic marked her words. It was one thing for Dracula to have captured her, especially if her powers were on the fritz, but him? She'd never seen him lose a fight. Or even look bad after one. Of course she missed that hotness in the alley with Cry-Baby. She hoped he was ok. At least he was conscious. That was a good sign.*

((Oh god, that scene, haha.))
"In a manner of speaking." He said, sounding a bit faint to his ears.
"The bastard drank up my blood. Dunno how he did without it wrecking him."

((It was so delightful. And she still has no idea. Lol.))
*Brandi processed the information, trying to sort though what might be going on. He should still be her character, at least in part, but it was getting harder and harder to predict him.*
"I...I'm sorry." *She winced, trying to get closer to the door as if it could make it easier for them to communicate.*
"Are you ok otherwise?" *I mean, obviously he was in a freaking dungeon and all, but...*

"Apart from that, the only thing is a tear in one of my wings. That'll heal, a lot faster than the vampire bite."
He winced when even a slight head movement jarred the area of the bite.
"The bite's...going to be there a while. Something about vampiric darkness clashing with my angelic nature, I think."

"Well, shit." *Brandi muttered to herself. She'd rather expected that he would come for her. It only made sense, didn't it? She certainly wouldn't allow herself to want to be rescued and swept up in his sexy arms. But her escape plans hadn't gone so well up to this point either. She frowned, pacing in her cell as much as the chains allowed for.*
"Don't worry." *She called out to him.* "I'll figure something out. You just rest." *She wanted to believe that was true. But worst case scenario, what if she did have to wait for him to recover. How long would that be?*

He heaved a sigh.
"Hopefully recovery won't take too long. I really don't want either of us sticking around here long."
He shifted, trying to get into a more comfortable position, though it was rather difficult while being chained to the wall.
"You have any idea why he took you here?"

"Yeah..." *Brandi wrapped the chains around her hands before propping up a foot near the ring that held them to the wall. Leaning back hard, she tried to loosen it with her weight.*
"Aw, hell..." *She winced, obviously under strain as she tried to continue dialogue.*
"Probably because that whole vanishing act. Or that pulling him into my room on accident." *She panted a moment before trying again.*
"Hell if I know." *She sighed heavily, releasing the chains. All she appeared to have accomplished was crushing her hands, the ring as sturdy as ever. Groaning in frustration, she added.*
"Though he said some shit about begging to be his again. So that's probably not good."

"He kept talking like you two had a 'thing' once, like you had history, which I know is bullshit."
Or...did he? Lately some of his odd flashbacks seemed to contain a previously unseen portion--that same feeling in the air when around the vampire lord.
"He sounds obsessed with you."

*Brandi rolled her eyes, exhaling sharply at the comment.*
"Yeah, but how's one supposed to sort that shit out?" *She flexed her aching hands. As far as she was concerned, the only obsessing Dracula she'd dealt with was looking for Elisabeta. And she wasn't her.*
"He seems the sort to fixate kinda randomly, don't you think? You'd think I'd remember being...with him." *Brandi called out to Raziel, even as she frowned at the nasty colors her hands were starting to speckle with.* "Like maybe he'll wake up tomorrow and totally forget that we're even down here. On to other things maybe." *It was mostly her blowing off steam at this point. She'd need to cool down if there was any hope of her brain sorting a way out of this.*

"I think there's something in those past lives. I get the feeling that he's been doing this sort of thing to the two of us for a long time now."
He winced when he shifted too far and disturbed his injuries. Dammit. If it weren't for the vampire's bite, he would've healed up from all this by now.
"But this time around, he has to deal with us as powerful beings."
Not that he felt all that powerful at the moment, but he was glad that he was what he was--being human, he'd have been killed in that fight.

*Brandi couldn't hold back a hollow chuckle. She certainly didn't feel powerful. Any sort of strengths she had exhibited seemed mute in this place.*
"Strangely enough, not feeling so much like a badass at the moment." *She commented, lifting her cuffed hands as if to enunciate the point, even though he couldn't see it. Raziel seemed to have more impressions from their mutual past than she did, but she had been doing her best not to think too hard on it.*
"Don't suppose you have an idea of why?" *She called out. It was a long shot, she knew.*
"I mean, he seems to like to be left alone. Any idea what got him pissed enough to do...all of whatever he did to us?"

"I've got only vague things to go on. But he seems to think I 'stole' you or some nonsense."

"Something I do not intend to see repeated." *The words were cold, echoing off the stone between them. Dracula had made his entrance less noticeable by means of the ceiling. There was a sadistic pleasure in letting them realize just how much they were at his mercy. Swooping to the floor, he turned sharply to Brandi's cell and slide the key in the lock.*
"You're quite the conundrum, now aren't you?" *He offered, not showing the least bit of irk, his cruel smile blossoming as he stepped in the room.*
"You make it rather apparent I can't leave the two of you here to your own devices."

*Brandi turned to the door at the unexpected voice. She was off balance in surprise, but did what she could to not seem frightened. Though to say she wasn't would be a lie. Swallowing hard, she stood her ground, though his observation weakened her resolve a bit, as she was unsure what alternative he had in mind. Pursing her lips, silence hung about her as she tried to calculate the best course of action.*
