𝕾he couldn't move. "A-Abolish..."
Shelby was cornered, and Abolish's intentions were clear. She was about to die, but she didn't understand — she never hurt anyone, never killed, never did anything wrong. She turned Avid, sure, but she did it for a noble reason; she helped him. She was good, she was still a virtuous person — her identity as a vampire never hindered that.
And surely, Abolish knew this too? Although the two of them never spoke, their relationship was not that of friends. They were more or less enemies.
But she didn't want to die. And she wanted Abolish to see that they need not be on two opposite sides — and that Abolish could be someone she'd befriend.
"Let's talk about this."
Her body, covered with cobwebs, silver surrounding her, shook with nerves. Shelby was scared, admittedly, for what was going to happen next.

♱ The young man had set the trap in hopes of catching one of the other vampires. After all, despite how he often came across, he was well aware of what a good vampire looked like and what a bad one looked like. So when he found Shelby caught within the cobwebs and the silver blocks, a soft sigh left him as he stood before her. Instead of killing her, he lightly rested the silver axe against his shoulder as he took out his pocket watch.
"...You have exactly five minutes to convince me... I know your not a bad person Shelby..."
He did, he had been watching everyone, whether they knew or not. He had been silently observing, taking notes and writing down thoughts about each and every person who had come to Oakhurst; when they became vampires and what they did during there time as a vampire. After all, it was good to keep a log of everything that he had witnessed. He'd start the timer once he was done talking, he carefully pocketed the watch as his dark gaze focused on the woman before him once more.
"But standing by while they hurt and kill people... And a bystander who does nothing... is just as bad as those who cause harm."
He gently hit the top button on his pocket watch as he shifted his weight before moving to put the axe down so that center of the staff was perpendicular to the ground. He truly hoped she would be able to plead her case... after all, he knew that not all vampires were bad. Hell his lord, his mentor and adoptive parental figure was a vampire. And he knew a few vampires among the ranks of the Shadows that he got on with. He just hoped he was right about Shelby.
"Your time starts... now."
