"Daddy, did you remember the stakes? How about the silver? Okay, do you have the holy water? Okay, just asking. Please don't get killed or captured. I do /not/ want to explain to Aunt Vernique why you aren't at the next Nevell Board Meeting again. It's getting harder to explain your absences." Veronica says into her cellphone.

Her father is somewhere in the Balkans with Greg Price and that Matt Walker guy, chasing down yet another lead on Dracula and he's too busy to even send a duplicate home to talk to her, so he's using the phone. It bothers Ronnie, deep down, that she rarely sees her dad anymore, unless it's her birthday or...wow. She only sees him on her birthday anymore.

"Okay, Daddy. Be safe. I love you." Ronnie says, hanging up the phone and sitting on her bed with a sigh. Dad was a pro and so were Walker and Price, but he worries that their little outfit will be in the same trouble the previous one was. The Nightstalkers were tough, but there were a lot more vampires than the three of them. Ronnie was afraid her father wouldn't be coming home one day.

Bobby will find her contemplating what to do with the rest of her day when he arrives.
