The sun is high up above the forest. This is not the same forest Calvin and Eddie are tough. Trough the forest, a group of 7 pack vampires runs in the same direction in a V shape. They run on all fours. They have long calws, their 6 teeth jagged and their eyes sickly yellow. Their skin is smoother than that of a Savage. Most of them are bloodied and battered. They run trough the forest towards and into an abaonded mine. They run trought the tunnel unitl they come across a dimly lit clearing with a dark figure turned with its back, in the middle. They stop. The leader of the group steps forward.
"Where is he ?"- says the standing figure with a deep and intimidating voice
"We dont ha.."- the leader started saying but was cut off
"WHERE IS HE ?"- say the figure in an even more intimidating voice
"Im sorry, lord Grif. He was teleported before we could bind him. The scouts say that he is in east Kentucky"- says the Pack with scared tone in his voice
Grif raised his arm, wich has cracked skin and five brown finger claws. He twisted his wrist, and with that, four packs got their necks snapped, their spine going trough their neck, causing their blood to spill.
"You are next, if you dont bring me Ira."- says Grif with an angry voice
"Yes my lord. Thank you my lord"- says the Pack leader while backing up
The remaining three packs ran off as fast as they could. The four laying packs slowly bleed. Grif turns around towards them, revealing his light brown hair and blue eyes. He raises his hand agian and the blood from dead packs collected into streams and headed towards Him. The four streams circled in the air around Grif, then they got absorbed by Grif. He closes his eyes. He takes a deep breath. Once he exhaled and opend his eyes, his blue eyes were replaced with red.
"Hold up, I will scout."- says Roberto while walking forward while Caitlyn and Malcom stayed
"So, uh, you think he is alright daddy ?"- Caitly whispers to Malcom
"Those two ? Please. They are sons of a great Daniel Browing. One of THE best hunters in history. Over 500 confirmed kills in 20 years of hunting. Eddie is looking probable to take his position, having over 60 kills already. No doubt they will be this generations best hunters."- says Malcom with confidence
"TSAMINA MINA EH EH"- yells Eddie
"WAKA WAKA EH EH"- yells Clavin
"TSAMINA MINA ZANGALEWA"- they yell together "THIS TIME FOR AFRICA"
"Aaaaaaaahahaaa, I freaking love that song. Even tough its FUCKING gay to sing. You tell this to someone I will shoot you."- says Eddie
"Bruh, I think we should be quiet, we will scare the skinwalker away. By the way, where the hell is it. We have been looking for an hour and nothing. Even went in circles few times."- says Calvin
"Hell if I know. What I do know is that its 15:30 PM, and Ira is already at the house."- Eddie says
"So what now, do we radio the other group and say we have to go ?"-asks Calvin
"No, of course not. This is a good idea for your kill. If you are lucky that is. You do have a competition of four other people"- says Eddie
"Umm, Eddie.."- says Calvin
"Yeah ?"- Eddie responds
"Skinwalkers take other creatures skin, right ?"- asks Calvin while watching down
"Yeah, why ?"- asks Eddie
"Something like this ?"- Calvin asks with a trembly voice
In front of them lays a deer. More like deers torso. It has no head and no limbs.
"So this man. Does his car happen to be black Chevrolet Chevelle ?"- asks the tall man in the unifrom
"Yes, yes. He was in company of his brother. First they beated my little brother then they ganged on me. Please officer just promise me they get what they deserve."- says the black man with a missing finger, with a teary eyes
"Oh dont worry"- says the man while turning around revealing that its Alan "They will."
The man is standing in front of the haunted house attraction. Its the owner. He sees a man dragging another man behind him. Its Ira, dragging a passed out pack vampire. The man looks at him with a confused expresion. He walks up to them and speaks.
"Im sorry sir, is he.."- the man says but was cutten off
Ira looks him deep in the eyes and speaks in a calm voice "You are sleepy, this is a dream, go to your car and sleep, for a long time." while his eyes went into a mixture of red
"Of course"- says the man while his eyes went the same mixture of red and yellow and walks away
He pulled the passed out vampire into the house, put him on a chair and reached for his pocket. He pulls out a cable made out of steel and silver strings. He is suprised when he notices that it burns him. He struggles to tie the passed out pack. When he eventually does the pack wakes up and speaks.
"It burns doesnt it"- he says in a deep voice "You are losing your power arent you"
Ira looks at his hand and sees a burn on it. He sighs and reaches for his other pocket yet agian and pulls out a small silver dagger. The pack smiles and laughs.
"When was the last time you drank ?"- he says and waits, but gets no response after some times so he speaks agian "So now what, you will interegate me ?"
Ira walks to the window and looks trough it with a worried look.
"Twenty"- says Ira suddenly
The pack looks up and laughs histerically "You fucking serious ?" he continues laughing "Im suprised you arent a primitive fucking animal by now. Unless you.."
Ira looks at him with an annoying look.
The packs grin widens while he wheezes "Are you a fucking veg.."
Ira knocks him out with punch before he could finish his sentance.
"Bitch"- says Ira
Malcom, Caitlyn and Roberto are walking slowly and carefully trough the forest. Malcom is leading and Caitlyn is behind. His walkie-talkie starts talking. Eddies voice can be heard from the radio.
"We found a deers torso, you are right, its here somewhere, stay alert and continue towards us, we should re-group."
Suddenly Caitlyn is snached by something. She screams, but her screams go more and more muted. This all happend before Malcom and Roberto could even turn around. When they did their faces turned into a worried expression.
"CAITLYN !"- Malcom screams and runs towards the direction of the scream, dropping his walkie-talkie in the process
"MALCOM WAIT !"- Roberto yells
"The fuck is happening out there"- says Eddie over the walkie-talkie
Roberto picks up the W-T with shakey hands, and speaks into it "I uh, something took her. It was the skinwalker. Please ese, we have to save her"
"No worries bro, we are coming"- says Eddie then turns off the W-T
"Wha-, what happend ?"- says Calvin confused
"It took Caitlyn."- says Eddie
Calvins eyes wideden, and he started running like hell from the way they came.
"Fuck sake."- says Eddie and runs as well
After Malcom ran for few minutes Roberto caught up with him. They all meet up at the place where they parked their cars. Malcom was sobbing, but not crying. Roberto is holding his head in a panic, Calvin is looking at the ground worriedly and Eddie is just like meh. Eddie looks at all three of them. They just stood there for some time.
"So what, anyones gonna say anything ?"- says Eddie
"WHAT THE HELL ARE WE GOING TO DO."- Malcom, holding his cry back, yells while grabbing Eddie by his shoulders. Eddies eyes go wide. "I cant lose her man, not now."
"Dont worry bro, she is alive."- says Eddie
"How can you be so certian ?"- Malcom asks
"You know skinwalkers, they usually just kill their victims right away. This one took her. It will probably try to take her hostage so we leave it alone."- says Eddie, Malcom sighs in relief, so does Roberto "Ooor it just wants to play with its food and its torturing her, who knows, monsters are weird"
Malcom started crying and Roberto curreld up in a ball on the ground. Calvin extended his hands and looked up to the sky as if he was praying, then he facepalmed himself. Eddie sees this.
"What ?"- he says confused
"Just shut the fuck up, please"- says Calvin while massaging his sinuses "Ok, we should ALL split up and look, that way we cover more ground."
After an hour or two Caitlyn wakes up in a cabin. She is startled when she sees a bone thin figure standing in front of her, backs turned. It turns and reveals a dirty man with some of his teeth missing. All his bones and ribs are visable, and he wears coyote skin on his back. He crouches down and smiles, revealing his grey teeth, the one that arent missing. As it approached Caitlyn backed up to a wall. He girns a tooth missing grin.
"Ahh... my darling."- it whispers while caressing Caitlyns cheek with its long clawed finger "You will be my bargaining chip."
Another skinwalker walks into the cabin, a female one. Her face turns into an angry expresion. She growls, causing the male one to quickly turn around. She goes out and the male one follows him. "Another one ?" she tought to herself. They could be heard arguing in an animalistic kind of language, filled with groans and roars. Caitlyn notices her quiver on the nearby table. She quickly takes one of her arrows, sits and puts the arrow behind her back. The male skinwalker returns and faces the table, back turned to Caitlyn. He dug trough the mess of knifes, feathers and Caitlyns arrows on the table.
"Dont worry, she is just jelaous."- it says with a gravely voice, the kind that life long smokers have "She wanted to wear your skin, but dont wo-"
He was stopped when he accidentaly cut himself on an arrow tip. It burned him. He was confused.
"Is this sil.."- he started saying but was cutten off.
Caitlyn stabbed him trough his hearth with an arrow she before hid behind her back. It falls and goes limbs and Caitlyn speeds out as soon as it fell. She ran into the forest away from the cabin. After some running she started yelling from the top of her lungs.
"HELP, DADDY, ROBERTO, CALVIN. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME."- she yells
Calvin heard her first. He yelled her name in response and started running towards the direction of the cry for help. A mixture of roar, animal death cry and human yell can be heard. It was so loud that even other guys could hear it perfectly. They turn around to the direction of the sound. It was the female skinwalker. She found her partner. She started running on all fours towards Caitlyns direction. Calvin still running, spotts Caitlyn in the distance. He waves to signal her, when she does, she starts running towards him. After some running he is terrified when he sees the female skinwalker, wearing a skin of coyote and deer antlers. He pulls out his glock and yells to Caitlyn to get down. She throws herself flat on the ground. The skinwalker leaps at her and Calvin, still running, shoots her 3 times straight in the chest. It falls back, gaging and spitting blood. Calvin got close and shot her tough head. Caitlyn got up and hugged Calvin while sobbing. He hugged back. After an akward minute of hugging Calvin radioed the rest of the people. Them two returned to the spot where they parked their cars. Eddie went and looted the dead skinwalkers. Their skin is valuable, ironically. It took him about an hour to return. They shared it 50/50. Malcom and Caitlyn huged. Calvin walks to Eddie.
"My first kill, a skinwalker."- says Calvin extending his arms full of proud
"Gongratz bruh."- says Eddie while fist bumping Calvin
Roberto gets near them two, his earing reflecting sunlight from setting sun into Calvins eye.
"Thank you ese."- says Roberto and hugs Calvin
"No problem man."- says Calvin smiling
Malcom walks to them and speaks "Thank you Calvin, so much."
"Ahh, no problem man. We will leave you guys alone now."- says Calvin
"Ah yes, yoour problem mentioned something about you being in a contract with a vampire, yes ?"- Malcom says
Calvin and Eddies eyes got wide. They remembered Ira. They are 3 hours late.
"Awww shi.."- says Eddie but is cutten off.
"Im sorry sir Malcom, but we need to rush. It was pleasure working with you."- says Calvin while rushing to the car
"Oh, sure. Bye boys."- says Malcom
They got into car and Eddie started it. Calvins window was opened.
"Hey Calvin."- Caitlyn says in her soft voice, while running towards the car. She gets to the window "Thank you."
She smiles. Her and Calvin lock eyes. Calvin looks at her green eyes. Their gazes lock. Just now did he realised how beautiful she is. He smiled a small smile. Their gaze lasted for 15 seconds. Clavin broke the silence with a quiet "goodbye". Eddie and Calvin drove away. After few minutes of silence, Eddie broke it.
"SHE WANTS THE DEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE."- he yells quickly and suddenly
Calvin jumps. He feels uncomfortable and says "Come on man.."
"Oh come on, I see the way you look at her. Only thing standing between you two is that fuckboi Roberto. I can get rid of him if you want to."- says Eddie jokingly
"Just drive. Ira is going to be pissed."- says Calvin worriedly
They drive to the haunted house attraction. They looked around, thinking Ira was outside waiting for them. Once they realised he isnt, they entered the house. They slowly walk inside the dimly lit hallway.
"Where IS he."- Ira yells as he stabbed the pack type in his leg with a silver dagger. It was followed by the pain filled yell of the pack.
Calvin and Eddie walk up to them. The pack is battered and bloodied, still tied up to the chair with silver cable. Ira turns to them with a suprised look.
"Took you long enough."- he says while putting silver dagger to the table.
"We are sorry to keep you waiting sir, we were hunting a skinwalker."- says Calvin
"No problem, I hope it went well. Now I need your help. Im not the best interigator, I hope you are."- says Ira
"Im good at that I guess. What do you need out of him ?"- Eddie asks
"Everything he knows about Griff. Everything. His location, how powerful he is, how many soldiers he has ect."- says Ira
Ira and Calvin sat down while Eddie went to get his equipment. Ira and Calvin discussed.
"So what exatcly is coming ?"- Calvin asks
"As I said, I dont know. No monster knows as far as I know. Maybe Griff does. Whatever it is its primeval. Its like when you feel the eyes looking at you. Like an instinct that tells you when something bad is approaching. But this is big. And we will need all the help we can get. This is why I cant let Griff do what he does. While we are all rallying under the same banner as monsters in a temporary alliance he denies this. He wishes to rule, he seeks power. This is bad. I wish we can avoid further hostilities. Thats why I want to find out where he is, I wish to end it one on one, so no one else can get hurt."- Ira says
"Can you beath him tough ?"- Calvin asks
The pack laughs out loud. Ira and Calvin look at im. Ira turns to Calvin.
"I hope so."- says Ira with a sigh
Shortly after Eddie returned with his equipment. Eddie tortured the pack. He sliced him with silver, rubbed him with salt, showered him with holy water, but with no succes. He asked him questions about Griff, about what they were up to, but all the pack did was spit blood in response. After hours of torture Eddie gave up. It was almost night already. The sun was down, but there was still light enough outside to see clearly.
"Im sorry Ira, he aint talking."- says Eddie while putting his silver knife down.
The pack laughs and speaks "You know what to do Ira."
"What is he talking about ?"- Calvin asks. He and Eddie look at Ira confused.
"Come oooon Ira. Have a bite."- pack says while revealing his neck, motioning Ira to bite him.
Calvin and Eddie both look at Ira confused. He looks back and sighs.
"I could drink his blood and learn everything he knows"- he says and quickly motion his arm as to say stop "But I will not."
"Why the hell not ?"- Eddie yells confused with a higher tone
"Because it might reawake my vampiric lust for blood. And I have been clean for 20 years."- says Ira
"Wont it make you stronger ? Isnt it worth the risk ?"- Calvin asks
"No. The truth we can get from him, we just need to try harder. And as for strenght, I am already strong enough. I dont need it."- says Ira
"You will."- says the voice
Calvin, Eddie and Ira turn to the hallway. There stands Alan in his suit and his majestic beard. Calvin and Eddie jumps and reach for their guns. Ira slowly stands up.
"Is this your witch problem ?"- asks Ira
Alan looks at Ira confused "A savage ? Really ? This low ?"
"You can see me for who I am. You surely see that im no ordinary savage, yes ?"- says Ira while raising an eyebrow
"That I have to admit. Never knew you could get so powerful."- says Alan "But you do need to know that you are dealing with Alan Smith here."
"Ah yes, I have heard of you. The leader of North East Witch Packt. Its a pleasure to meet you."- says Ira while bowing slightly
"Likewise. Now if you will exuse me I have some unfinished buisness."- says Allan
He raises his hand and extends it towards Eddie. Electricity started to form on top of his fingers. Eddies eyes widen
"FULMINIS"
Following this words a ball of lightning formed in Alans hand. He charged it, making sure that it was a one shot kill. After few seconds of charging he fires it. But just as he was about to fire it, Ira jumps in front of Eddie and screams.
"IGNIS"
Ira shoots a bolt of fire and Alan fires his lighting. The two energies collide and cause an explosion. Eddie was not affected by this explosion, due to Ira standing in front of him, but the house and Calvin were. Calvin was thrown out of the window, and a good part of the house was gone and/or was on fire. The pack was knocked over. Alan looks at Ira with a confused look. Then smiles.
"We are euqal in power. You sure you want to battle ?"- Alan asks
"Acctualy no. I would like to talk."- says Ira
"What do you mean ?"- Alan asks
"All I could say is that you might have no monsters to get ingridients from until years end. There is a war coming, and I need all the help I can get."- says Ira
In the meantime Calvin was passed out for few moments. He got up and saw crowd of people in front of the house, waiting. They were not people tough, Calvin saw it. Their yellow eyes visable even to Calvin. The sunlight was growing more and more weak.
"That does sound serious. Alright, as soon as im finished with these idiots, I will help you."- Alan says
"No. You wont touch them."- Ira says with a loud tone
"He ows me !"- Alan yells
"I WILL REPAY FOR HIM."- Ira screams
"Umm, guys."- Calvin says while climbing trough the window "There is like ten guys waiting for you in front of the house, and they all have this weird yellow eyes."
"Packs."- Eddie says
"Come on, lets fight them toghether."- Ira says to Alan
Alan looks at Eddie with narrow eyes. He takes two step forward and speaks "You got out of this one kid. Cross me agian and you wont be so lucky"
Calvin and Eddie prepared their guns. They all exit the house. Outside ten packs greeted them, all coruched and standing on all fours. They were all centered around one. It was one of Griffs generals.
"Ira. Surrender. Or die."- he says
"Why must you do this brother. You are in the wrong"- Ira says
"Griff is our only hope. He is more powerful than you can even imagine. Only he can beat whats coming."- he says
"But whats coming ?"- Alan asks
"Only he knows."- he says "NOW SURRENDER"
"NEVER."- Calvin yells. Everyone looks at him.
"Very well then."- the pack motions with his hands to attack
Other nine packs leaped towards them. Calvin and Eddie shot four of them. Ira grabbed one by the face and squished its head. Alan fired a lightning, disentigrating three of them. Ira grabbed the last one and ripped him in half with his bear hands. Seeing his failed attack, the general leaped on the car and with a quick motion of arm send a wave of air that knocked Calvin and Eddie from the ground. Alan and Ira crossed their arms to defend themselfs.
"FULMINIS"
Alan fires a lightning at him. The general literally punched it away with ease, and it hit a passing car, causing it to explode. Alan was shocked, and so was Ira. They exchanged looks of disbelieve. Calvin quickly jumped up and threw a grenade at him. Everyone is suprised. The general crosses his arms to defend himself from the blast. He is knocked away several meters. Calvin charges at him with a silver layerd combat knife.
"What the hell are we going to do. He is too powerful."- Alan says
"What if you both shot at him at once ?"- Eddie asks while getting up
"That might work but you need to distract him."- Ira says
Calvin is attacking and slashing at the general, but he dodges everytime. He finally gets a hit. He uppercuts him, causing him to bleed slightly. The general now in rage opens his fist and charges a firebolt in it. Calvins eyes widen. After few seconds of charging the general yells.
"IGNIS"
Bolt of fire flies towards Calvin. He does a limbo and dodges it. It goes towards the house, nearly missing Ira and Eddie, goes trough the front door and causes the house to completly explode. It sends Eddie, Ira and Alan falling to the ground.
"Ok, NOW."- Eddie yells
He jumps up and runs towards the general. The general grabs Calvin by the neck and throws him to side . Eddie runs to his other side and shoots him, his bullets having small effect. The general turns to him and agian charges the fire bolt. But before he could fire it.
"FULMINIS"
"IGNIS"
Ira and Alan fired both at the same time. The general did not have time to react. It hit left side of his torso and caused an explosion where he stood. The explosion was followed by his screams. Once the smoke cleared, Calvin saw him laying there, with a hole in his torso. His left cest and most of his stomach missing. He was still alive but barely. His skin was cracked and dry. He made small wheezing noises when he took a breath. Calvin quickly runs up to him and shoots him trought the head, finishing him off. Ira noticed something out of the corner of his eye. It was the pack he tied up earlier, crawling. He had no feet, they were blown off. Eddie walks up to Ira.
"Come on man. You have to do it."- Eddie says
Ira gives him a sad look. He walks up to the crawling pack. Waits a little bit and takes the bite. Ira feels the power and knowledge of the pack coursing trough him. As he sucks the last bit his eyes go red.
