Rise, my shadow vampire.

Are they all... dead?

They are very much alive,

but in a deep sleep.

I don't understand.

With the first bite, we feed, you sleep.

With the second bite, you become a shadow vampire,

a servant willing to follow his master's wishes to eternity.

With a third bite, well,

let us just say...

..no-one comes back from a third bite.

Yes, Master.

Now...

..get everything ready for our journey ahead.

Where are we going?

Wouldn't you like to know, little girl?

What?

Why are you showing me this?

She is different from the rest, she could be the one.

My shadow vampire, we're leaving.

Where to, Master?

To my long lost rubies.

Elisabetha's blood and Dracula's tears

created 13 rubies with special powers.

During the clan wars, most rubies were lost.

Only a few clans survived...

..the Dracas...

..the Nosferas...

..the Pyras...

..the Vyrad...

..and the Vamalia.

Who's there?

Holy water!

You're too easy.

Get off her!

Come here.

What's wrong?

Girls, stupid.

Who, them?

Me.

I believed it was holy water.

Well, there's nothing like a good scare to feel alive.

Look.

It's a fish.

Fish.

Let's put him back in the sea with his friends.

He's a dicentrarchus labrax, in the Moronidae family.

They're night hunters, like us.

If you talk any longer, he won't need to go back in the water.

Bye, fish! Bye.

Do you think, one day, we'll learn how to speak fish?

We can't swim, so what's the point?

Yeah, but why can't we learn how to swim?

Because the ocean is pulled by the moon's energy,

the same energy that gives us life.

I've read that, if we fall into the water,

you become part of the flow.

So the water's as dangerous as the sun?

No, Tammo.

The sun will burn and turn us into dust.

It's our true enemy.

The water is dangerous

because it joins us with the essence of where we came from.

We won't die, we just...

..freeze up and just stuck there for eternity.

So we could be saved?

Not since the ruby of the Tova clan was lost.

There's no vampire in the world who can swim,

well, not any more.

Let's get you two to class.

Amore.

Don't worry too much about the shape shifter, amore.

You have a class to teach.

How can I teach them about stress?

You should teach them.

You'll do great.

Those children are going to eat you up.

Luciano, Tammo, sit down.

Today, we will learn about our strength.

As you know, we are all strong.

And some... Are stronger. ..are the strongest.

Thank you for the introduction.

We, the Dracas...

..are, first of all, the smartest

cos we moved to a place where there's no sun for two months.

Lars Dracas! And we control the northern lights...

..which is the only natural light except for fire and moonlight

that agrees with vampire nature. I said, "Sit down."

The cool air, it sharpens our minds.

And... Get off the table. Get out of my way. Get off the table!

..we won every clan war.

And if we didn't win it, we weren't in it.

We have more rubies, more powers, cos we are the best.

That's enough now, Dracas.

You are going to sit yourself down

and you only speak when I tell you to speak.

All children in this school follow the same rules.

Why does he have to prove himself all the time?

I don't.

Yeah, right.

Excuse me, Alisa?

Well, get your notebooks.

We have a lot to do today.

Alisa...

Alisa, it's me. It's Mummy.

Wake up. I have to go.

I wish for you to grow up surrounded by love,

but there are things out there that are greater than you or me.

There are wrongs so great that we...

..have to give everything we have to set it right.

If you never see me again...

..remember that everything I did was out of love.

Alisa von Vamalia, are you paying attention?

Stand up.

Tell us your clan power, Alisa.

Well, um, we...

We don't need to learn the power of love, do we?

Vamalia's so small, and their power's so weak,

I don't know why they even have a ruby. Stop it.

Alisa, continue.

Is it true that your parents got so drunk on love

that they walked into the sunlight?

Rumours don't write history.

What if she gets us all loved up?

Then we forget who we are and we destroy ourselves.

Yeah, that's true.

That love power of hers can really backfire. Enough.

All right.

Sit down, Alisa.

Let's move on to the mystery of the five disappeared clans.

Their powers lost to us all across Europe.

Upiry of Romania,

astral projection.

Caminada of Switzerland, invisibility.

Belov of Russia, walk in sunlight.

Tova of Holland,

move in water.

Stop. Stop.

Is this it, Master?

Is the Tova ruby down here?

Yes.

How do you know?

The rubies are parts of my soul,

my last tears.

They still call out to me.

Water.

The first time, I lost her to water.

Water that is now so dangerous to us vampires.

Master, I don't understand.

You will.

You will!

What's happening to me? I can't move!

The Tova ruby was thrown into the water for safekeeping,

so no vampire could get it during the clan wars.

It is right beneath you.

Get it, then I will save you from the moon's pull.

Lycana of Ireland,

shapeshifting.

What happened to the Lycana ruby?

The Upiry...

..stole it from them during the clan wars.

Right, Joanne.

The Upiry was once under the protection of our great ancestor.

Anyone?

Lord Dracula.

Can you say it louder, please? - Lord Dracula.

Even more!

Lord Dracula.

Lord Dracula.

Lord Dracula.

Remember that everything I did was out of love.

You saw your mother cry.

How is that possible?

Get out of my head.

Lars, you should've seen the look on her face this morning.

She really thought it was holy war.

Don't tell me you've actually fallen for a Vamalia.

Hi. Hello, Karen.

Where's Hindrik?

He's in the back.

Can I go down there?

You're an heir.

You can go wherever you want.

Hindrik?

What are you doing here?

I need to talk to you.

Can you give us a minute?

What happened to my parents?

They died in the clan wars.

Hindrik, don't.

How did they really die?

I promised Dame Elina.

Well, she's not here right now, so you answer to me.

Hendrik...

..I order you to tell me.

You've been hanging around that Dracas boy too much.

Hindrik, please...

..I need to know.

Dear.

During the last clan war...

..your father passed.

Your mother couldn't live without him.

She chose the sun.

I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry.

Dame Elina wanted to shield you from the past.

I promised to keep it a secret.

She cried.

How?

Vampire's can't cry.

I don't know.

Why did she do it?

Was it love?

Was she drunk on love?

No. Then why?

And this thing...

..what is it?

Hide it. First, tell me what it is.

I can't.

Trust me, ignore it. It'll go away.

Why would I want it to do that?

It's the only damn thing that makes me special around it.

It's dangerous.

Trust me, ignore it.

It'll find another host,

it has before.

Just make an effort to fit in here.

I remember the time when you were a sweet little child,

doing everything exactly as I told you.

I mean, what the hell happened?

It's called growing up, Hindrik.

Deal with it.

Everything all right?

Yeah.

She has a mind of her own.

They all have something.

Come, the sun's out.

What are you doing?

I forgot my...

..my notes.

Here they are.

I couldn't sleep, so I wanted to study.

Do you know how you can tell a vampire's lying?

Guess?

Their fangs pop out?

Make sure you don't get caught.

Now, get out of here before I change my mind.

My shadow...

..prepare the carriage. We need to find the next ruby.

And time is not our friend.

Yes, Master.

Come to bed, amore. You need some rest.

Someone is coming for us...

..for them, for the rubies.

I feel it.

What are you doing?

Our rubies need to be safe.

I'm not strong enough for a shapeshifter.

If Baron Magnus couldn't hold on to one of his, how can I?

It has to be you, Viola.

I must talk to the shadows.

They must prepare.

For what, Claudio?

For what?

I don't know.

I'm coming with you.

Master?

Master, can you hear me?

Yes, always.

The Contessa has the rubies now.

She was a clan wars commander.

I'm no match for her.

That's not important now.

I want you to find the girl on the ship, a Vamalia.

A girl? Her name is Alisa.

Find out everything about her, report back to me.

I'll make sure she will not stand between me and my Elisabetha.

Yes, Master.

Go now.

Of course.

They need your help.

I don't think they paid enough attention in class.

I'm coming.

They're already planning their revenge, you know?

I can read it in their minds.

You can see it on their faces.

You know, for someone that can't stand me,

you seem to be following me quite a bit.

I just wanted to tell you my cousins deserved that.

That's all.

A wolf!

Who are you?!

There's a shapeshifter on board!

Conte Claudio, Contessa!

I'm Ivy, of Lycana.

Lycana's are extinct.

How did you find the ship?!

We got the call, just like you.

Then why are you late?

We were in hiding. From who?

I don't answer to you. No, but you do have to answer to me.

Grab the wolf. Help me hold it down.

Lycana are extinct! Get off of me!

Are you one of them?! Let him go, please. Let him go!

Did you attack Magnus?!

Are you the one who stole the ruby?!

I'm not a threat!

She's telling the truth.

Please! Let her go.

She's telling the truth.

Please.

She's only a child.

I'm so sorry for my husband.

He hasn't been feeling like himself lately.

Let him apologise.

Ivy...

..I'm so sorry for my behaviour just now.

I haven't been sleeping.

Welcome to our school.

Hello.

Your wolf must join the other pets in the shadows' quarters.

He's not a wolf.

He's my brother, Seymour.

I'm Alisa von Vamalia.

Nice to meet you.
