"So, let me get this straight, we're going to a Dr. Jake Tempus hideout, who mind you left town a week ago,"
"Da," Ivan said in a thick Russian accent
"So, we can find info that he left in his hideout about what he's doing"
"Da"
"And were the only vampire in town that apparently has nothing important to do today for this"
"Da," Ivan said annoyed with the American
"So now we're the 'Search Info Team," Alfred said sarcastically "no more hits and retrieving stolen items, just me and the giant furry Yeti"
"we were going to have another member, but we already have fat idiot American"
"Oh, that's cold, but that's nothing new from someone who has a cold heart"
"Better than being whore, like yourself"
"I'm not a whore! I told you it's called being charismatic or friendly to people, something you don't understand"
"Da, I don't understand because I'm not whore," Ivan said smugly while walking ahead of Alfred who looks piss and gives him a rude hand gesture.
They got news of Jake Tempus hideout last night from G.U.V.E. telling them that he left when they sent out their hunter for him, now they need someone to collect his stuff to found out info about what he is doing. G.U.V.E. have been after Jake for years for his
crime and try to expose the vampire world. Rumor is going around about his experiments he does with humans of all ages.
They keep walking until they came into a hallway with 4 iron cell doors on each side and one at the end of the hall.
"I guess it was true what they said about him and experiments, I hope it's not kids because I do not need that"
"I agree" Ivan look down the hallway that leads to another room, he started walking while Alfred started to follow him after looking at the cells. He opens the door. It looks like an office. He doubts that they will find anything useful base on Tempus habit of destroying any evidence of his doing, even people.
'Thump'
'Thump'
'Thump'
He heard a heartbeat before he enters the room and smell the scent of a female somewhere hiding in this room.
"I'm guessing you heard that?" Alfred said walking in the room
"It's female" Ivan look around the room eye fix on the desk
"I know, can smell the fear on her"
"Hello there, we're not going to hurt you. We're trying to find the person who did this!" Alfred yelled
There was no reply from behind the desk, Alfred looks at Ivan and Ivan look down at him.
"Fine I'll get her, you'll probably scare her to death with your face," Alfred said walking to the desk ignoring Ivan death glare.
"Hello, miss can you hear me?"
"Hello?"
Before he knows what had happened a white blur kick him hard in the face causing him to stumble back, then he felt a sharp snapping pain to his stomach followed by his legs being kick out under him and his body is a slam to the ground.
Ivan stood in front of the door to block it from the woman. She turns and started to run to another door on the other side. Grabbing her around the waist locking both of her arms. She kicks and struggles. Ivan was about to knock her out when she screams.
That scream was no ordinary scream, it sounded like a high pitch bird echo through the room. A feeling like a knife stabs me both of my ears as I grab them and drop to the floor. I can feel the blood dripping out as the pain increases causing my vision to be blurred. The only thing I saw was one of her foot while she was running away, so I flick my hand causing her blood vessel in her foot to stiffen which made her trip and fell on the floor knocking her out.
Ivan signs and lays on the floor for a minute. Ivan could feel the pain from his ear fade away and his hearing came back. he stood up and walk to the woman on the floor and kneeled next to her.
"Jesus that fucking hurt, I think she crack a couple of my ribs when she slams me to the ground and that scream" Alfred rubbing his side while the other hand rubs his ear while looking down at the girl. "Looking at the gown she must have been on of Jake test subject. Could explain that scream and her strength"
I turn her over to get a better look at her face. She has a young face about mid 20's with a scar on her right cheek, she had dark circles under her eye and her lips were plump but chapped and red. she had a small build frame body that was malnourished with wide hips, she was the least 5'4", and her hair was long and upkeeped even her bang were long and frame her face. Ivan stared at her face intensely until Alfred broke the silence.
"I have never seen a human so white, even her hair is white," he said while inspecting her hair to her scalp, "you think she still human anymore?"
"I do not know, but look," Ivan said while cradling her head in his arm he points to her upper eyebrow where a deep cut was forming and blood was dripping down her face and her scalp that turn to a pink hue. He cradles her head and licks the wound. He put his mouth over the wound and continued to lick it. When he pulls away the cut had healed
"Well get anything?" Alfred went to a squatting position still looking at the women.
"She only one" Flashes of scenes ran throw Ivan Head but only for a few seconds.
"What?"
"There are no other human here, just her"
"Any more info?"
"Nyet, only small amount I could drink. What I saw is what we already know"
Alfred stared long and hard at her then said "Why didn't he take her? Or at least kill her like the rest, it's obvious that she was his focus if she is the only one here. We could get more info by drinking her but..." Then it looks like a light went off in his head "Wait if she is his main focus and he just left her here he has to come back for her"
Ivan give him a skeptical look on his face "She could have been failed subject and just left her here to starved to death"
In return, Alfred gave him the same look "This wacko doctor does not leave anything behind, fail or not"
"Why leave her?"
"I... really don't know," Alfred said while scratching his head. "The Hunters could have been on his tail and cause him to freak out making him leave fast, but still that seems unlikely" he stood up and walk around still talking but Ivan tuned him out while looking
at the women. He starts to stroke her hair feeling the grease and the tangle between his finger but did not care and continue. He stood up carrying her in his arm to the door.
"where are, you going?"
"This woman may have answers we need, you stay here and search"
"What! This place is too big and that scream could have attracted people."
"Search fast" Ivan left the room not caring what Alfred had to say.
"Fucking Yeti" Alfred gave him a glare while starting his search
