From the journal of Robert Frohmeyer:

How could I have been so careless? I took every precaution and still I am once again to become a father. I had no intention of dragging another woman into the nightmare I call a life. Elizabeth would want me to be happy, to continue living; that was the type of person she was and my heart still belongs to her. I fear there's nothing left for Amanda, and what of Amanda's child?
And yet my lesson was brutally learned, Elizabeth dead and Joshua, I mourn him now also. I had tracked him down to the red light district here in San Diego. He was a well known figure here on these streets where children sell their bodies just to survive.
I look at these young people and see their eyes. They have no innocence left, the streets have sucked the very life from them leaving soulless shells. I cry at night now, Joshua disappeared over a month ago and my son is not the only one. Over a dozen young men have vanished from these streets over a two month period. A handful of bodies have turned up, but Joshua is not among them. The detectives tell me not to give up hope.
Hope is an empty word at this point. No, I must look to the future, to Amanda and the child that we have conceived together. Amanda understands that I can never love her as I did Elizabeth but I have made her a vow. I will not fail this child as I failed my precious Joshua. I thought that staying away would protect him and I was wrong. Pendragon and his bloodsucking bastards will have to go through me to get to this child.

“Well Mr Frohmeyer, the paperwork is in order.” Alistair Colton said as he picked up copies of the legal documents and placed them in his briefcase. “I'll go directly to the courthouse and file these. You father has given you a full Power of Attorney where Eric is concerned. You are his legal guardian until he turns 18 or until you choose to return guardianship to your father.
Of course now that we have handled that issue, there's the issue of young Master Frohmeyer's education. The state requires that he either attend school, or be home schooled up until the age of 16 when he could drop out. But I would hope that the young man is more intelligent than that. A good education is a requirement toward a stable future.”
“I'm aware of the educational requirements and Eric will be home schooled.” Scud said as he stood to shake the man's hand, dismissing him. As soon as the lawyer had left the office Scud snorted. “Damn he annoys me. I swear he's got a broomstick shoved up his ass!”
Eric looked at Josh and giggled “Is he always that much of a pompous buttmunch? Jeez Louise!” Eric turned up his nose and sniffed and then in a stuck up voice said.. “Pardon me Mr Frohmeyer but would you require any further brown nosing at this time? Hoop jumping or perhaps simple ass kissing?” Eric gave a snort. “Knee pad makers must be getting rich off of him.”
Scud laughed and shook his head. “Come on we've got an entertainment center to set up.” Scud said as he left his office waving at Delores on the way to the elevator. The two entered the car, Scud pressed the penthouse button and slid his ID in the slot to authorize the car to climb higher.
“Josh, there's another envelope that Dad gave me. It's for you, a letter. He said he wanted you to have it when you were ready.” Eric said. “I know that you don't think much of him but I think you should read it. He never forgave himself you know? For not being there for you and your mother.”
Eric stepped off of the elevator as soon as the doors opened leaving Scud to follow in his wake. Eric stopped short seeing the Nightstalkers gathered in the living room with Drake.
“Scud, Eric.” Blade greeted. “Your father is alive.”

Blade had waited until nightfall. Abby and Hannibal had entered the hospital with him while several other members of the NightStalkers hid themselves outside. Blade and Drake had both agreed that the sudden appearance of Robert Frohmeyer in a Scottsdale hospital reeked of a trap. Scud and Eric had remained at Talos Industries with Drake and the Nightstalkers had put together a rescue plan. Just as Blade had thought the place had been crawling with vamps. Quiet a few of those vamps were now ash. The remainder had escaped.
Blade had wanted to follow but the mission was clear, get Robert Frohmeyer. And they had done just that. Blade now found himself deep in memories, triggered by the man that they had rescued. A man he met at the same time he met Whistler. Scud's father and Whistler had hunted together.
“Okay Blade, what gives?” Abby asked as they watched the private jet take off. “You know him somehow.”
“He used to hunt with your father.” Blade said opening the car door and getting in.

“You know, the only way to deal with what is in that envelope is to take it out and read it, right?” Drake said as he dropped on to the couch and slipped his arm around Scud's shoulder. “Believe me reading your father's words will be much easier than sitting here obsessing over them.”
“I'm not obsessing.” Scud said quietly. “I've hated this man for most of my life, wished him dead and now I find out I have a brother, my father is not dead and he's even writing me letters. I don't know if I can take anything else Drake.
Right now it's like my entire life is inside a blender set on puree. Everything is so out of hand, and I'm just getting tossed around like a...I don't know. It's like I'm falling and there's nothing to catch me.”
Drake pulled Scud close cradling him against his chest. Drake's hand drew small comforting circles on his back. Drake reached down and wrapped his fingers around Scud's left wrist encircling the bracelet that Scud Always wore. “You have me to catch you Love, and I always will.”
Scud leaned forward and picked the letter up from the table. He toyed with the seal for a moment before tearing it open and pulling out the pages. He unfolded them and began to read.

Joseph Frohmeyer and two vampires were kneeling on the floor in Pendragon's study, Pendragon was angrily stalking back and forth in front of them. “You imbeciles have lost the father! It was simple enough. Grab the boy and whoever was with him!”
“Master, Eric never showed up.” Joseph said. “We were expecting Eric and possibly Joshua. Not the people who showed up.”
“They knew of us, what we are.” One of the vampires said. “They knew how to kill us.”
Pendragon walked to his desk picking up a cane. Walking over to where the trio knelt he pulled the handle of the cane revealing a silver blade hidden within the wooden shaft. Pendragon struck quickly turning the two vampires to ash.
He watched Joseph cringe in fear as the two vampires flared and crumbled. Flicking his wrist he drew the blade along the familiar's jaw leaving a trail of blood in it's wake. “Who were these people.” He demanded.
“One of them was called Blade, Master.” Joseph said pressing his hand against the wound. “He seemed to be the leader."
Pendragon grabbed his servant by the collar yanking him from the floor. Pulling the man's hand away he licked the dripping blood from the cut. “Find out everything you can about this Blade.”
