So my response is going to vary upon the outcome of certain actions.
Option One: Vanessa is hit/ attacked by the half Vampire

Wincing from the stinging pain in her arm, Vanessa pivoted and dropped into the crouch, her hands immediately bringing her pistol to bear as she had been trained. Sighting her target, weapon still in hand and malevolence in eye, the let out a short burst as she was trained, three aimed shots that were intended to strike twice in the chest and once in the head, using the natural rise of the weapon to assist her aim. Advancing on the figure then, she would methodically fire rounds into it's centre mass as she approached until the magazine clicked empty.
Upon reaching the woman and spotting the Vampiric traits she would do as her family heritage mandated. Taking out her K-bar knife, she sliced through the remains of the creatures neck to cleanly separate the head from the body. Taking the garlic spray from out her drop leg again she sprayed into the neck cavities as an added surity, before taking the wooden stake that was strapped into next to the spray and stabbed into down where the creatures heart should be. Finally she took out her lighter and using the propellant from the spray can would torch the body and head to triply make sure the vile creatures taint was permanently removed.
Turing on the ball of her feet, Vanessa marched proudly down to refectory with smile on her face to fetch her scone. The Helsinki Family tradition had been upheld, when was the last time her cousins the Helsings could say as much.
Option two: There is no attack / After option 1 concludes if there is.

Vanessa yawned as she finished pecking at the second scone and hot chocolate, she knew she shouldn't have splurged and had seconds, who knew what mother would have said had she seen; but the day had been unexpectedly taxing and Mother wasn't here to control her anymore.
Closing the book as she had been reading the fading light of the afternoon, she looked around to see if her room had been readied yet.
