You people keep inspiring me, every time I check there are several new reviews waiting to be read, okay people, here we go

"Vampires?!" Harry stood from his place on the bed and quickly began pacing in thought.
"Hermione, I want you to go and tell your parents to stay in their room, don't tell them why, just let them know that something has come up that we need to look into. After that, return here and I will be giving you a crash course in a curtain breed of dark creatures." Hermione's outburst was quickly forgotten as she made her way across the room and out into the hall way.
Harry hurried over to one of his still packed bags and quickly opened it. Several cases were neatly lined up inside it, he grabbed the one labeled 'vampyre' and pulled it out. He set the case on the bed and opened it. A dozen silver stakes went across the top of the case, three vials of holy water rested within the cushioned case and three crosses lay next to them. Finally, a rather large magnum revolver rested on the right side of the case, two boxes of ammunition were in next to it, one of them was labeled 'wolves' while the other was labeled 'bats.' Harry took out the revolver and bats shell box, he quickly loaded the gun and pulled out the thigh holster that had been resting beneath the weapon. He strapped on the holster and slid the gun into place.
He also took a vial of holy water, one cross, and half of the stakes. These items were slid into several specialized pouches on his belt, the stakes were on the back of his belt pointing downward.
Hermione burst through the room and stopped dead in her tracks as she saw what Harry was doing. "Are you going to kill them?" Harry looked up at her and smiled.
"Normally no, I tend to enjoy the company of vampires, they are cousins to the Kashki, but this particular group is made up of rogues, vampires that have betrayed their clan. They are very dangerous and are more then likely going to terrorize this hotel when the opportunity presents itself. But you and I are going to distract them and hopefully lead them off into the nearby forest where we can dispose of them without giving the locals to much trouble."
"wouldn't the muggles around here freak out and become terrified if they saw you leading away a group of blood thirsty vampires?" Harry chuckled slightly before answering.
"Vamps are common around here, even muggles know about them, you have to remember that we are a lot closer to Romania now, and vampires practically spew forth from that place. They will be little more than thankful when we remove them, actually, I could probably get us free accommodations for getting rid of them if they are harassing the hotel. And finally, we are getting rid of them, not me." Hermione's eyes grew wide at what he was saying.
"Your letting me come with you ?" Harry's grin widened.
"Yep, your strong and tough, you have some combat experience and you are going to need all of what you can handle if you plan on hanging out with me very often." Hermione smiled and crossed the room before leaning down and locking lips with her immortal boyfriend. After a moment she had to come up for air and locked eyes with Harry.
"Thank you for letting me help, you seemed to have loosened up since you started getting your abilities back." Have flashed her a goofy smile.
"I have Rave, besides you're a big girl, and I plan on teaching you how to defend yourself." He spun her around to face his case of goodies, her back was pressed up against his chest and he had his arms protectively wrapped around her waist.
"Lets get you suited up, shall we?" Harry pulled out he remaining stakes and conjured a thigh holster for them, he slid them around her right leg before conjuring a smaller copy of his own belt and secured it around her waist, inserting the remaining holy water as he did so. Finally, he tide one of the crosses around her neck.
"Remember, through the heart or not at all, the holy water will work like acid. Now, lets go kick some vampire ass." The pair stood and made their way out of the room.
Fin.
(Just joking.)
When they reached the lobby, the first thing Harry noticed was the lack of a vamp look out. "These guys are new, they aren't even checking for any hunters or a slayer, and those are very prominent in this area."
"Really? What is the difference?"
"Hunters are humans that track down dark creatures, they only receive their powers through rituals. Slayers are naturally drawn to fighting demons, they are predominantly women, not all, but the majority are. And they aren't necessarily human either."
Hermione nodded in understanding and continued to watch the vampires that Harry had pointed out to her. Harry himself stalked forward towards the front desk. He began whispering to the man up front and discreetly motioned towards the leader of the vamps.
The man at the front desk nodded fearfully and pressed a button under his station. As he did so, Harry spun on his heels and buried a stake in one of the vamp's chest. This got every human in the lobby to effectively move as the vamp exploded in a shower of ash. The button the man pressed was a delayed locking mechanism that activated when all humans had fled the area, apparently this hotel had been having a lot of undead problems recently.
Harry punched an approaching vampire in the jaw. dislocating it and sending him reeling backwards. He used his momentum from the punch to spin about and plant a kick on another vamp's chest. The undead hooligan was thrown backwards out the open door. Harry made his way outside and discreetly motioned Hermione to follow him. The young witch looked apprehensive for just a moment before following her badass boyfriend outside.
As soon as she stepped out of the hotel, the door swung shut and locked itself. Now the hotel's customers were safe. Hermione screamed and ducked as one of the Vampires, a young blond headed boy with a hint of a mustache, took a broad swing at her. She pulled out one of the stakes from it's leg holster and buried it in the fiend's heart. The vampire released a startled yelp before exploding in a shower of hot ash.
Harry rolled out of the way as one of the vampires swung at him with a short sword. The demon hunter brought up his revolver and expertly blocked the incoming blade in the nook that rested between the barrel and the cylinder. He stepped back and dodged another attack before blocking once more with the gun. Sparks arched through the air as Harry did this several more times before stepping back again and shooting the blade as it swung at him, the vampire faltered slightly as his weapon of choice was blown into two distinct pieces.
"Fuck!" The vampire looked up at Harry in an enraged snarl.
"Yes you are." The ancient teenager planted the barrel of his revolver directly between the vamp's eyes and violently separated the top half of his head from the lower half. Both pieces of the vampire exploded into plumes of hot ash as Harry turned and buried another stake in the vampire right behind him, causing him to copy his dead comrade.
Hermione buried her foot in the vampire's crotch and watched in morbid curiosity as he fell and began to convulse in pain. He opened his mouth in a blood curdling scream. The intelligent teenager simply took out a vial of holy water and poured it down his gullet. The vampire's screams turned into gurgles before cracks formed in his skin. Within moments he was nothing more than a pile of smoldering ash.
She looked up in just enough time to see Harry finishing off the last vampire with a well placed bullet. She blinked and noticed that he was covered in blood. For the briefest of moments she was slightly disgusted with the sight before a deep burning sensation began crawling up her stomach. She blinked again and shook her head, vainly attempting to rid herself of the sensation. She breathed deeply and noticed a rich, all most musk like, smell emanating from Harry.
Harry sheathed his revolver and turned to check on Hermione. Instantly the same burning that had assaulted his girlfriend flared within him. He blinked in surprise and pushed the feeling down with shear will power. It flared up, much stronger, when he caught her sent. Once again, begrudgingly, he forced the sensation away from himself.
"Hermione, I need you to calm down…" Harry was vainly attempting to keep her under control. "I don't understand, she has went into blood lust, that only affects to species, mine, and the pile's of ash laying on the ground. Even if she has inhaled a large amount of vamp flakes, this shouldn't be happening." He looked down at his blood splattered body. "And that isn't helping either." Just as he started to banish the blood, he was violently shoved to the ground. He looked up in a daze to see Hermione straddling him. "Hermione…" His reply was cut off by a pair of rough lips. Harry's desire flared up again with vengeance. He peered at her in a fog. "You shouldn't-"
He was cut off as she punched him directly in the jaw, instead of upsetting him, this did little more than increase his own blood lust. He growled and flipped her over, pinning her to the ground. Hermione gasped slightly. "You're hurting me… I like it." She grinned wickedly up at him and locked lips with the millennia old demon.
When they finally broke apart Harry peered deep into her crimson rimmed eyes as she peered into his. " We should stop, you're not ready…" Hermione just laughed.
"You talk to much." She leaned forward and pulled her mouth towards his one last time. His will broke and he gave in.
Fin.
Alright, another chapter done, and you got a taste for another aspect of the Kashki, blood lust. Normally this is a way for them to burn off excess adrenaline, obviously, Harry has reasonably good control over his. Hermione don 't. You can instantly tell when the sensation has overcome them by the tell tale red rings that form around the iris of their eyes. I hope you guys like this chapter, the next one will bring in an order member, one that just about everybody likes. If anyone is confused about something then please just drop me a line and I will attempt to answer your questions. Read and Review and I'll update again soon (hopefully)
