A/N: Hiya guys!

Sad news…school starts soon. Three weeks! I'm not really all that thrilled about it, though. Because, well, school. And I'm gonna be a senior. Gaaaaaah. I'm not ready to grow up yet!

Well, on that note, when school does start, update days may change. Just some fair warning there.

And I'm sorry that this took so long to get out. I got a new laptop (finally!) and I've been screwing around with that and getting used to typing on it since the keyboard is set up differently from my other laptop. I also didn't know what to write in this chapter. Or how to end it, per se. Ah well, you get my drift, right? Anyway, enjoy the chapter!

Lovino's POV

By the time we arrive at the house, I hear screams from inside. I charge into the house, dreading what was going to happen when I got in there.

I follow the screams. I find Ludwig standing protectively between Feli and a thing I had prayed I would never, ever see again. That thing was the thing that had murdered my baby brother and my parents. It looks slightly different, but it was definitely the same creature.

Suddenly, the monster backhands Ludwig, and sends him flying. I'm impressed. I mean, the guy is a fucking wall of muscle. And he went flying. Holy fucking shit.

But, then it occurs to me that Feliciano is unprotected. I have no idea what comes over me, but I run towards the monster, screaming. I hear Antonio yell at me when I leave him. It looks at me, I think so anyway, it's fucking impossible to tell what that thing is looking at. I tackle the monster.

I really don't know what I was planning after I tackled it. So I start screaming and attempting to bash its head into the floor. Unfazed, the monster grips me by the throat and lifts me off of its body. It cuts off my airways, and I feel my feet leave the ground as it gets back on its feet. That is when I hear it start whispering something. After a few moments I realize, I understood it.

"Target found. Lovino Vargas. Preparing elimination."

If I wasn't facing my ultimate demise, I would be disturbed by how it sounded like a fucking robot. Hell, I'm disturbed enough as it is.

Then, there is a sound of a blade cutting through flesh, and the monster's head falls to the side. Immediately, I fall to the ground, gasping for breath, enjoying the pleasure of not…suffocating. I guess. Fuck.

Blood is everywhere. Poor Feli is in a state of shock, with black blood goop shit all over him. I look up to see Gilbert holding a sword by his side, covered in black shit. He looks me in the eye while grabbing a rag from his back pocket. "You're welcome." He then proceeds to clean the sword with the rag.

Antonio suddenly appears in my vision. "Lovi? Are you okay? Maybe you should clean yourself up and…" he glances at Feli who is just staring into space. "And maybe Feli too."

I nod numbly and grab my brother's hand and dragged him to one of the bathrooms. I grab a wash cloth and start washing his face off. "Feli? You okay there? C'mon, don't be going all zombie on me."

"…"

I look at him. "Did you say something?"

"What was that thing…?"

"…That's the thing that killed Mama, Papa and Marcello." Feli physically flinches when I say that. I sigh. "Why don't you hop in the shower? That was what I was planning on, anyway…"

Feli nods a bit. I sigh again and head out, looking for another bathroom.

Of course, I run into an issue on the way. That issue being named Alfred F. Jones.

"Dude! What happened? I heard yelling earlier and….what is all over you…?"

"Don't ask, dumbass. I don't think you could handle the knowledge of it." I brush past him.

"…It was a demon wasn't it?"

I stop dead in my tracks and turn towards him. "What…?"

He shakes his head. "Nothing, man. Go clean yourself before you get blood all over the place." He smiles and heads off towards the kitchen.

"He knows something…"

Feliciano's POV

"It's the thing. The creeper. The monster that killed everyone. It's here to kill you and your brother."

What are you talking about?

"The truth. You have to toughen up. Lovino almost died there trying to save your ass! Not to mention Ludwig got hurt in the process."

That…

"You know I'm right. You can't rely on everyone forever."

Who are you?

"Just a little part of you, I guess you could say."

You can call me Luciano.

Lovino's POV

I wander into the kitchen to see several people cleaning the room up. Gilbert is standing next to Ludwig. "How did that thing even get in here? The house is warded…"

The potato bastard shrugs. "There was a silver box in the package. It had runes all over it. I told Feli to drop it and when he did the box opened, and it came out of it."

"That thing was trying to kill us."

Everyone in the room looks up at me when I enter the room. "Lovino, you don't know that…" Antonio mutters.

"I heard it call me a target."

Gilbert seems shocked. "You understood it?!"

I nod. "Yeah? Why the fuck does it matter?" No one looks at me. Not even Antonio. "Why does that thing want to kill me and Feli? It already killed our parents and brother. What more dies that fucking thing want from us?"

Alfred tilts his head to the side. "You mean that that thing killed your family? Where were you?"

"I was there. I killed it with a gun. Or at least I thought I did."

Alfred, looking very serious for once in the time I've known him, looks me deep in the eyes. "You probably did. These aren't very smart. It wouldn't play dead. This one is probably a different one of the same species. Which means someone is targeting you." He pauses. "But still…you killed it?"

"I fucking said that, didn't I?"

Alfred nods. "Right, right." Suddenly, the doorbell rings. "Hey, Lovino, can you go answer that?"

I roll my eyes. "Fine, bastard."

When I open the door, a woman is standing out front. When I see her, I completely freeze. Her blonde hair is pulled into a bun, her bangs covering one of her eyes. The eye that is visible has a red iris with a blue pupil. Her ivory skin is covered in blue swirls. I instantly know that this woman is not human.

Her face lights up when she sees me. "Oh! A new face! Francis never told me that he got new people moving in here! What's your name, dear?"

"L-Lovino…"

She smiles. "Lovino. You know, you look very familiar. I just can't place it! Ah well."

"Who…?"

She laughs. "My name is a bit odd. Everyone just calls me Morgan, though. Can you tell me where Francis is?"

A/N: And that's it. I wasn't planning on OC's (monsters and demons aside) but…I made Morgan, which is not her real name, and I just couldn't resist putting her in.

Oh well. I'm also planning on a few other stories I'm going to be starting. Not all of them will be connected with this, though.

But, I hope you can forgive me for the lateness of this and please leave a review! I love hearing what you guys think of this! Bye bye!
