Olivia shoved a vampire away from her and then ran a stake through its heart. As the vampire turned to dust, she collapsed down onto the ground as she started to heavily gasp. It seemed to give her much difficulty as she picked up her head and looked around the room. Her vision began to water and blur even though she knew for a fact she wasn't crying. A vampire was about to join in on a two on one attack against a half-breed when she stopped and slowly turned to Olivia. She let out a shuddering breath as she looked down to her hand and noticed that it was still soaked with blood.
"You're losing a lot of blood" the woman stated.
Olivia swallowed, "I haven't lost my strength yet. I can still turn you to dust before I die"
"We'll see about that" the woman smirked, "But then again, I could just watch you bleed out. There's nothing better than watching a small pup succumb to its wounds. I just can't wait until the pain kicks in for you, or is it already there? Of course, you don't look too fast now. I could just feed from you already. Just end you pain by adding a little more pain. So many options"
"Half-breed blood tastes horrible to vampires. You wouldn't get the satisfaction that you're craving now. I'd rather die to my wound instead of having your teeth sink into my skin. Try it and you will get a slow beheading"
"What a threat!" the woman moved up her hands to her face in a mock shock.
"You bet your ass it's a threat. I suggest that you stay right there" Olivia quivered, "You wouldn't be able to hurt me even if you could. I would just leave this place if I were you"
"And why's that?" she placed her hand on her hips.
"Look around you!" Olivia snapped, "We're winning! All of your little friends are dying"
"So you want me to go out to the daylight" The woman pointed to the sun behind her, "Where I can burn to death?"
"It's better than being in here. When Dracula comes, you'll all be sorry" Olivia smirked.
"What makes you think he'll even show up? Why would he bring all of you before him in the first place?" She blinked and then smiled, "Because you guys never told him"
"It was all part of the plan. We just had to tire you out before he comes here" Olivia started to cough heavily.
"Looks like the silver is working into your system" she said with a bit of an excitement in her eye, "It's only going to be a little while longer before you start to fade in and out"
"Stay away from me. Come anywhere closer to me and I will kill you. I may die soon but I won't go down without a fight. I've hated your kind all of my life and would love to have my last waking breath be to kill you. Just try me, bitch! You won't know pain until you've crossed me. I've spent 400 years of my life running from you and I'm sick of it!"
"So do it!" the woman lifted up her hands, "Kill me!"
"Are you challenging me?"
"Either way it's going to be your blood everywhere"
"Maybe" Olivia picked up her head, "But it would be worth it"
"Then let's find out"
"Fine! Have it your way!"
"Then get up! I don't want to look like I'm bullying someone! I want to see how much of this "Strength" you've got left inside of you" She paced as Olivia struggled to get herself up into a standing place.
Olivia stood up and leaned herself onto the wall behind her. The woman showed her teeth and let out a low growl. She lunged at her but Olivia ducked and rolled onto the ground and grabbed a fallen silver knife. She turned around and stabbed the woman in the stomach. She let out a scream similar to Olivia's just minutes ago. She went behind the woman and slowly started to sink the knife into her skin. Smoke came from the vampire's neck as she let out a growl and scream at the same time. Olivia went as slowly as she possibly could and attracted nearly all the attention in the room. A gurgling sound came from the vampire as she finally turned into dust. Olivia collapsed down onto the ground once again as she heaved in the air and dust into her lungs.
"This was a big mistake" Olivia whispered, "I'm sorry, Dracula"
"You need to get out of here" Adam came up beside her.
"I have to stay" Olivia tried to get up, "I have to help"
"You're no use to us half-dead. We need to find you some blood and fast" Adam looked around the room, "There's got to be a human hostage in here somewhere"
"I don't want a human" Olivia said in a delirious voice, "I don't want to be like them. I can hold on"
"You have no choice, Olivia" Adam told her, "You're dying, not starving. Everyone knows that the human blood is the fastest way to heal"
"We can't leave" Olivia shook her head, "You're too valuable and they need you"
"Then stay here" Adam looked around the room.
"Help them fight" Olivia urged in a weak voice.
"I'm going to help you survive" Adam countered.
Adam picked up Olivia, making her let out a yell from the pain in her side. He stayed low and in the shadows as Adam went across the room and to the corner. There he laid Olivia down on a worn out and dirty mattress and tried to make her as comfortable as he could. Adam laid down a wooden cardboard down over her and ran off to find a victim. He went into the other room and tried to smell out a human before a vampire came out of nowhere and snapped his neck clear off of his shoulders.
The panic and fighting continued as the skies darkened, unbeknownst to everyone in the old factory. No one understood what happened but the sun roof completely shattered and huge bats came swarming in and covered the place with bats as half-breeds and vampires alike threw themselves to the ground. Everyone watched as the bats formed together a man with a hideous white face and eyes blood-red with rage. Dracula stood in the middle of the room before he let out a roar that shook the walls of the old building.
A series of hisses came from up above as the half-breeds jumped down to join Dracula in the help of their friends. They didn't even wait for Dracula's command as they each went to a vampire who was still cowering in fear. He noticed that not a lot of vampires were left standing, maybe even 15 but these were the 15 who would be the hardest to kill.
"You!" Dracula grabbed onto Art's arm, "What did I tell you about leaving the nest?!"
"It wasn't my idea!" Art yelled back.
"It doesn't matter" Dracula told him, "You're too young to die. Where's Olivia?"
"I don't know" Art looked around, "I haven't seen her since the start of the attack"
Dracula let go of Art's arm and looked around the room. They were moving too much and he couldn't seem to find the particular half-breed. A sinking feeling made him remember what it was like to watch his wife fall from the tower once again. Something was very wrong.
He didn't know where she was but all he knew was that she was in danger. He had to find Olivia and fast. Dracula turned and charged past a mattress with a cardboard on it as he went to search the other rooms for her.
