In the hideout for the Sunguard, Cayden, and his friends were all preparing to strike at the castle where Lincoln and Clyde are being held captive in. So far, everything was going perfect for them, they had their own bottles of Lycanserum for no reason, and they were preparing their guns and steaks in case any gargoyles or any other demons would come from hell on behalf of Count Vlad as his reinforcements.
Gowanii was feeling skeptical about this whole idea, and he said "Cayden, I know you're the leader in charge of this, but I sense that we will not succeed. Even with all the Lycanserum, we might not be able to kill Vlad and Meela, and save the whole world."
"Don't worry, Gowanii." said Cayden, readying one of his revolver handguns. "Like I always tell you all: how do you kill a vampire? you have to kill ze leader." and a gun cock was heard from Emeka.
Cayden's African best friend then said: Mon ami, are you sure that Lincoln and Clyde are fairing well in there? What if Vlad betrays them both in return, and make him on the list of victims next?" and he readied his AK-47 machine gun with bullets. "This could be the fight of our very lives against your own parents."
"I really don't like saying this, but maybe they are both right, me love." Simone added. "This could be utter suicide just storming the castle like this."
"I don't want to lose Lincoln and Clyde, like... like I lost my master." and he put his guns down for a second in a state of thought. "I want to avenge Fenrir after all these years. The only man I could ever call 'mon pere' since he raised me. I don't want to lose those boys too. I will make Fenrir proud of me, and avenge his death."
Still smoking one of his cigars, Rudy said "But I thought that Vlad was your father?"
"Oui, he is technically, my biological father, but Fenrir was more of a father to me than my actual one." and he felt something choke in his throat, and felt like shedding tears of sadness down his face. "I could have been there to save him. I could have stopped my evil father from killing Fenrir like zat!" and he threw an empty wine bottle out of the window, breaking the glass.
"Calm down, comrade." said Alexi, trying to keep his friend from having an emotional breakdown like this. "There was nothing you could have done to save him. You were just a little boy when Fenrir was defeated."
"Alexi speaks the truth, Cayden." Emeka added. "Sometimes it's too late to save a life."
"Je suis desole. (I'm sorry)." Cayden remarked. "Forgive me for that little rash action I just did." and he put one gun back in his hand. "But let's not forget, Lincoln has some Lycanserum of his own, and I can assure you that he is quite fine. We just need to act fast before my parents give out more temptations from the Forbidden Fruit so they can make him one of zem, and Clyde too."
"We do get what you're getting at, Amigo. Maybe we can force them to smoke cigars until their lungs are charred."
"Oh Tais toi, (shut up,) Rudy!" Cayden said
"OK, shutting up now." Then the Panamanian man put the cigar back in his mouth.
"Although I am staring to get ze feeling about the voice inside Lincoln's head, and who he is."
"What are you talking about?" asked Red. "Is it his conscience? Or a bug in his head?"
"No, it's nothing like that. Like... like a ghost inside his head, telling him to not give up hope and all zat. Furthermore, I think I recognize who that mysterious person is."
The others didn't exactly know what to say about what their friend/leader thinks about this, and they knew he would never just go crazy, like he would lose his mind. "We want to believe you, Cayden." said Red. "But... it's just that... hmmm..."
"I understand. You can all think what you want about me, but we still need to focus on the matter at head, and make sure everything is ready. Zis could be quite a fight worth remembering to protect the Earth we all love."
"Right." said everyone else.
"Among honor!" Cayden boldly stated
"Among honor!" everyone else repeated as boldly as their leader sounded. After more and more weapons beijgnresdy to be put to use. They all pulled out garlic necklaces so the vampires won't bite their necks, and silver necklaces to keep them at bay.
every weapon they have was ready to kill some vampires and gargoyles when they attack, and the garlic necklaces will be quite useful for them, too. The question was when they will attack and save everyone.
"Cayden, when exactly do we strike?" Asked Alexi.
"Very soon now, Alexi. We will do it today when the time is right for us to make our move against the bad guys."
"i can't wait to save the earth from this vampire menace." Emeka remarked, cracking both of his knuckles. "It's been a while since I killed a horde of vampires."
"Neither can I." Said Gowanii. "It will be a real pleasure saving the earth from Vlad and Meela." Then he began polishing his hatchet with a knife sharpener.
"They'll never know what will hit them, right amigos? It will be bigger than how Noriega was arrested eh? Hehehe." Said Rodolfo. "It will be so sweet to cause so much destruction."
"You can say that again." Simone agreed with him. "Just hope Lincoln and Clyde will be alright by themselves for a little longer."
"Trust me, ma Cherie." Cayden reassured her. "They will be just fine. Lincoln has the battle, so now, nothing can go wrong."
back at the castle, Lincoln was taking a little nap and it was already ten in the morning. Lincoln was just having a little extra sleep since he had that meeting with Fenrir, the voice inside Lincoln's head this whole time.
After another half hour, Lincoln began to stir, and he slowly got out of bed. Sure, it was technically the morning, but with the Blood Moon still out in the sky, replacing the sun, Lincoln couldn't really tell the time of day anymore.
looking at his surroundings, the boy was curious on where his sisters and parents are. He decided to go fetch himself some lunch and felt like going to the Burpin Burger not far from where the house used to be at this spot.
He knew, however, Count Vlad and Meela wouldn't let him just go off and wander outside in the neighborhood, like a puppy in a backyard. He decided to go look for Luna, since he trusted her the most.
Walking through the hallways and the corridors, Lincoln searches high and low for his sister, and he didn't find any trace of her. "Bro!" Her voice called out to him. Lincoln looked back and saw her hovering in midair in a fast speed, and her keep was flying about her back. "Ah there you are." And she landed in front of him.
"I was just looking for you, Luna."
"Sorry, didn't expect ya to awaken yet." Luna said. "I was just wondering if you would like to come to Burpin Burger with me. I can really use some lunch."
"Funny, I was about to ask you the same thing." Lincoln remarked.
"Heh, cool. Well, might as well let the boss know before we leave. My master wants to keep an eye on us."
"Okay. I'll just wait then."
"No prob. This won't take long, Little Luna's on the up." Then she flew away in astonishing speed.
"Lincoln?" Said a voice. Lincoln looked back and saw his parents, with their usual, happy expressions on their faces. "Did you sleep well?"
"Oh yeah. It was pouring last night."
"We heard. Rather relaxing to hear the rainfall outside the castle, especially when there is no thunder and lightning. Said Rita. "Listen honey. We're sorry if we scared you the other day about us being vampires now."
"It's okay. I'm just glad you guys didn't just pounce on me and suck me dry until I looked like a corpse "
"Oh, don't say that, sport." Lynn Sr said. "Vampires or not, you're still our son."
"Yes, honey." Said Rita. "Nothinf will ever change. We'll always love you." Then the parents walked up to him and hugged him.
"Thanks, guys." Said Lincoln. "I love you guys, too. But... what if count Vlad and Meela order you to duck my blood dry? Woukd you obey them?"
"We have to since they are our glorious leaders that will rule the world but I highly doubt that it will ever happen. Lord Vlad and Mistress Meela like you a lot."
"True. That's true. They do seem to really like me like their own son."
"Not to mention that made you a prince." Rita sang as a reminder.
"Heh. Yeah, I know, mom."
Then Luna came back and landed in front of Lincoln again. "They said yes. And have fun out there." She said. "But don't worry, you'll be in good hands with me." And she wrapped her arm her brother's shoulders. "We'll have fun out there, I promise ya."
"Good." Lincoln smiled.
"And you wanna know the best part?"
"What's that?"
"You can get food for free now that you're a prince of darkness!"
Lincoln gasped and sounded flattered to hear that. "We'll he back mom and dad."
"Okay Lincoln. You and your sister have fun." said Lynn Sr.
Walking outside, despite the eerie atmosphere Lincoln felt far more comfortable since Luna was with him and they went to the Burpin Burger restaurant together fo have a decent lunch.
