[ Agatha grumbles as she makes her way up the stairs. That dramatic man, can't show up anywhere without making a scene, can he? She makes no effort to slow Trevor and Sypha's descent.
He grabs Sypha's wrist again at the end of the stairs, racing in and tossing both her and the medical kit toward Alucard, putting himself between Dracula and the both of them as those hands coil around Carmilla, squeezing her until she can't be seen from outside of them. And then the shaking stops. The darkness is gone, and with it both Dracula and Carmilla.
More than that, though Sypha wouldn't recognise it, the old building is gone. There are no silver shackles in this basement. No blood on the floor. The rooms upstairs, if investigated, would be tastefully decorated bedrooms and not torture chambers. The only clue as to what's happened is that Agatha's chair has gone missing. Because Dracula didn't take Carmilla anywhere. Dracula recreated the building's glamour and moved the rest of them into it, leaving himself and Carmilla in the house of death.
From above, there's a sound of a key in a door. The house of death is locked. Rendered inaccessible. ]
