Laura and the gang manage to hide Mattie and Carmilla under the floorboards and avoid them being caught by Baron von Vordenberg's patrol, especially with the help of Danny, who covers for them. After the coast is clear, Mattie and Carmille reemerge - only to meet Perry's angry sprinkle of holy water.
Laura and her gang just returned to Silas University - turns out fleeing the scene of an epic battle isn't as easy as it sounds. After Carmilla scored them some swish new digs, and LaFontaine being a bit annoying, the time has come for the two love-birds to enjoy the sweetness of young tender romance - until Perry shows up completely freaked out.
Perry just had a horrific encounter that left her all covered in blood, which is now dropping on the ancient carpet: The student newspaper staff at the "Voice of Silas" was brutally slayed dead. Laura realizes that fleeing the campus wasn't the right thing to do; and since there's no one else left to bring light to this, it's her duty to stay and solve the mysterious crime.
