The Rescue of Marilyn
The Rescue of Marilyn
Rose Dracula worked tirelessly on a youth potion for Briar, as she had for her mother, Ruby. But though somewhat successful, the potion had its limits and would fail after a time.
Eventually Briar moved out on her own and turned to dark magic to find a way of extending her life. Lily would travel long distances to visit and bring her the potions that temporarily kept Briar from aging.

But as Lily explored to find something edible, she discovered an interesting door. "I wonder where this leads," thought Lily.

"Now this looks more fitting for a Dracula," thought Lily as she walked down dark stone steps. She was excited to see what she would find.

Then she heard a baby's cry. Fortunately there was a key in the lock, and Lily walked right in. "Well, who have we here!" she cried.
Lily loved babies and knew they didn't belong in jail cells. She picked the child up. The baby was cubby and dressed in pink. "Poor thing!" thought Lily. "It is an unattractive mite, but that is no reason to lock it away. We don't judge others on looks, and perhaps she'll improve as she gets older."

Well, mostly. And he at least got permission. And never caused any real harm.
But Briar was operating a death camp! Lily realized the candy house had a sinister purpose. It was being used to lure human children into Briar's kitchen!

"I am not immortal like you," Briar said. "I keep growing older in spite of Rose's potions. I had to find another way!"
"I am not going to let you harm children," Lily cried. "We have to return this child to her parents."
Briar looked at the floor. "I am her parent," she said. Then more boldly, "She is mine! And her father is worthless! I can do with her as I please. She will at least give me longer life by my magic."
"Not when that magic will destroy her life," declared Lily. "You forget, Briar, that I also inherited some of mother's magic. And I will put a stop to this." Lily threw Rose's potion on the floor and directed the fumes to seal up the cells in Briar's basement.
Now Briar was the one horrified as Lily declared. " There will be no more potions, Briar. Enjoy the rest of your short life!"
