EPISODE 1 : See You In Our First Job
"Bring him in." Said the Judge.
The New York high council has started to judge the Downtown Genocide case.
The people was already in suits and sat in orderly fashion from right to left, the lawyers are both standing in their needed place and the eyewitness are being placed in the other room.
As for the Judge and the Attorneys are bot sitting in the opposite direction of the guests.
The Judge sat in his high chair, cleaning his desk for his files on the suspect.
As someone knocked on the door and opened it wide, it was the NYPD leading the way for the suspect.
As the suspect entered the room, the guests gasped as they know what he did on the genocide.
He wore the same jail wardrobe and his hands are cuffed, there were two guards both holding his shoulders. He looked around, unfamiliar with the environment.
He had a black messy hair, a young face. And the shining diamond colored eyes.
He was seated in front of the Judge, as he looked to him eye to eye.
"Thomas Septimo Fillius." Said the Judge aloud "Age 18, unattended, drop out of school, living with your Uncle Jimmy Fillius I presume?" He stopped.
"John." Said Thomas "Its Jimmy John Fillius, you forgot the John part." He Pointed.
"I see…." The Judge said sarcastically "So, Tom. As your friends and family called you. You are suspected to commit genocide on Downtown mall, as the security tape shows you shot two magazines of AK-47 to random locations of the mall, resulting in 18 deaths in shot wounds and 5 mall security with stab marks in torso and neck."
He became annoyed at hearing this "That is not true, I wasn't shooting random. Those 18 people are vampires, they killed all those security because they are going to eliminate hundreds of people. That's why they didn't show in the security footage."
"Objection!" Yelled one of the Attorney "Vampire sightings has been decreased since 2018, those of the dark whose left are only Bugganes and Boggarts!"
"They decreased because my family, the Fillius'. Had been hunting them down since the Bite of 2018. They are planning to turn everyone on the mall into one of them." Tom explained.
"Bullshit!" Said the Attorney.
"SILENCE!" The Judge banged his hammer.
Then the debate is silenced.
"What do you mean your family? Who are your parents?" The Judge demanded.
"I am Thomas Septimo Fillius, son of Jeremiah Fillius. He was the seventh son of the seventh son. My mother was Ailisya Deminio. The unlicensed Necromancer." Tom said.
"She has a file." Whispered one of the attorney.
"I am seven times three, sibling before me I am the youngest and the last to do the job." Tom finished.
"As you can see Tom, you cannot hunt and kill the dark unless you are licensed as a SPOOK. And as for your family, they had been meddling with the law for 5 years in the making and they are not the seventh son. Their relationship with your dad had cleared them from vigilante actions that should've been done by the local Spook. By the time as we speak, they should have been in rehabilitation of handling the dark. Because no one better than a seventh son of the seventh son could do it." The Judge raised his voice.
"You're wrong." Said Tom, and some people gasped. The Judge raised his head back "They've been doing good so far, and you know it."
"Tell me about your family…" Said the Judge slowly.
Tom silenced for a moment, and the he cleared his throat.
"Our oldest brother, Michael, or Mike. Is the leader, he knows when he tells us what to do, and when to do it. The second eldest sister, is Elizabeth, or Ellie. She's the muscle, when she goes to work she rarely uses guns, instead she pocketed her silver knuckle every time she bumped to a demon at night. Then there was Samuel, or Sam, or Sammy, whatever you like to call him. Is the brains of every operations, he designed our weapons and he comes up with the trickiest plans to hunt. Then Amelia, or Amy. She's the human changeling, the greatest liar and the masters of disguise, she could be one of the guests right now. The fifth was Benjamin, or Ben. He shoot bullets like Bullseye, as he never misses, because mostly out of close distance fear. The sixth was Helenna, or Helen. She held the power of our mom, she's a Necromancer, as she likes to talk to Abraham Lincoln in third grade and calls Agatha Christie every time we're in a detective mode. And there's me, Tom. Today I go solo as my siblings are of doing something else." Tom breaths a gulp of air as he talks so fast he rarely did that "So there you have it."
Everyone in the room started eavesdropping. As people stared at me for a while.
"Well, Tom. This, is how I see your family. Michael Primum Filius had been charged for vigilante actions across the state for years. Elizabeth Alterum Filius had been charged for assault upon her co-workers. Samuel Tertia Fillius had been charged multiple times for unlicensed practice in object enchantments. Amelia Quarto Filius had been charge for seductive behavior, breaking and entering, and lying to an officer. Benjamin Quintum Fillius records are low, but have been known for using unlicensed guns product of Samuel. Helenna Sextum Filius had the lowest records of them all, in fact she only had been charged for she hadn't been licensed for Necromancing since she was 17. But you all have one thing in common, law breakers, a Spook wannabe." Said the Judge as he reads through the files on his desk "And you decided to join them, now as the Filius family case is cleared. Let's go back to the main case shall we? Lawyers in their positions."
Then Tom's lawyer walks into the room, she was a tall woman with blonde hair and sunglasses. She puts her briefcase on the desk and stood beside him "Took you long enough. Court starts at 7 pm." Said Tom.
"Sorry Tom, traffic." Said the lawyer.
As the Judge started to read about the case, Tom's lawyer had been talking in a smooth and seductive tone. Tom apparently just sat there, smirking.
Minutes pass, as both cases ended. The Attorneys had stated their results "Thomas Septimo Filius, you had been charged for unlicensed creature hunting and cleared from the genocide. You had been put to jail for 9 months."
"That's good enough." Tom said as he fist-bumped the lady.
And right before the Judge slammed his hammer, there was the rushing sound of engine getting louder and louder. People went to see what's going on outside the window, then there was blinding light illuminating across the room.
"DUCK!" Screamed Tom.
With a big honk, a massive truck drove inside the courtroom. As smoke and ashes flew everywhere, and the sound of people shrieking. He was on all four, when I jumped the opposite direction of the truck. Tom looked behind him, and saw the desk he was in was crushed to pieces. Debris are everywhere near the hole on the wall.
"Stupid wig." Said a feminine voice.
Tom turned to see the lawyer who he knew all along was Amy, in a disguise. She had a long black hair hidden under the wig "Tom please remind me to get a new blondie."
"Hey!" screamed the Judge "You're not a licensed lawyer!"
Then before they knew it he was dragged by someone from behind the truck as Tom an Amy heard screams behind it. Painful screams.
"Hey Tom." Whispered Amy "Take this." As she threw a caliber 46 to Tom's hands, and she drew her own gun.
They walked silently across the room, as Tom was getting closer to the side of the truck. He quickly pointed his revolver, but no one was there.
Then he was smacked with the force of a car in his shoulder and hit the side of the truck.
"Tom!" Screamed Amy.
As he turned to see, a figure in robes were standing in front of Tom. He looked up and saw a really pale man, it was the survivor vampire gang Tom hunted.
"9 months isn't long enough for you asshole, you've taken the only chance we could take the city. Now we're taking your chance to feel sanity." The vampire said.
"What are you gonna do? Bite me?" Tom joked "Guess what, son. I'm seventh times three."
The vampire laughed "No, you fool. I'm just going to hurt you, really, really, bad."
Tom turned to see at Amy, who are fighting vampires at the moment. Then he looked from under the truck, the guests are hiding behind their desks.
Tom looked for his gun, when the vampire on top of him gran him by the shoulder and pushed their nails deep inside. Tom screamed in agony, Amy heard the scream and quickly shoot the vampire.
It hissed as the silver bullet missed to his shoulder but searing pain all across his upper body.
Tom was dropped on to the floor, as he crawled to grab his revolver. When the vampire saw this, it didn't miss the chance to strike him from behind. It hissed as it lunged forward onto Tom.
But his throat was hit by a burning feeling of silver.
Tom successfully mad it faster, and when the vampire fell to the ground, holding his holed throat. Tom fire two rounds on to his chest. And the vampire lay motionless.
"Help!" Screamed Amy. As she was held by a vampire behind her back.
When Tom pointed the gun at it, the vampire said aloud "Drop the gun, or I'll bite her." It showed him it's fangs close to her neck.
He hesitated, but luckily he didn't have to do anything. As Amy retract a silver blade under her wrist and stabbed the vampire's leg. It screamed on the hot searing pain.
Amy quickly swung the blade upwards to hit it's face and downward towards the back of it's neck.
Seconds later it fell to the ground after the head had rolled out of sight.
Amy walked closer to Tom, and hugged him gently. She patted his back, gesturing to leave.
When they walked pass the terrified guests, Amy then said "The Judge didn't bang his hammer."
Tom turned to look at her.
"Its not official." Amy smiled.
Tom was relieved to hear this, and laughed with her.
"Welcome to the family Tom."
