A Few Days Later
Matt had recovered quickly from the battle at Vitae, though he hadn't spoken to the others since then. He'd been meaning to check on Greg and Michelle, and call Lynch to see how they were all doing, but he'd been sidetracked by his own ailing, meeting a new ally,  Dracula's revelation, and Shelly's injury.

Matt Walker entered Chicago Memorial and, as he'd done for the past four days, gone directly to Shelly Drumm's room to check on her.  The first day, he'd been greeted by a man that looked to be Shelly's father. Jericho Drumm was known in every mystic circle in one fashion or another, as easily as Matt's own mentor, Ian McNee, was. Matt had also been hesitant to call Ian, because he was certain he might blow up at his mentor for not telling him about...

No, there was no time to think about that.

He walks into Shelly's room, expecting to see her still unconscious from the damage done to her by Dracula. How they were going to explain the marks her neck was anyone's guess.

How Matt planned to make Dracula pay for what he'd done wasn't.

"I can, but I need you to understand that this is personal. Dracula attempted to use me to overpower you. That was his intention by dining on me. He wanted to temporarily subdue you by outpowering you. That pisses me off and not just because I was being used. I have to have some part in this somehow. Even if I'm just in the van keeping your ass alive."

Matt starts to say something, then stops. He goes to say something else and rethinks it. He understands Shelly's desire to go after Dracula, because he'd want in on it if Dracula had done to him what he'd done to her.

"Okay, how about we table this discussion for now? We're not in a really good frame of mind to talk about this. I'll let you relax and get a clean bill of health from the doctors, while I go to your place and some things. Don't worry, I've got your keys." he says.

"Fair enough," she agreed. "Be back soon?"

She tried not to sound pathetic but damnit she hated hospitals.

"I'll be right back. I promise." he says, turning to go.

"I'll...be right here."

She hoped he was quick. And that there was nothing unpleasant in her apartment waiting.
