Chapter 3 – The Fight
"Oh Shit!!!" Serin said
Leaping he pushed Ukyo out of the way a vampire suddenly appeared cloaked in black as though it was a hole where light could not penetrate. Serin got up and yelled a battle cry as he engaged the vampire in combat eleven more vampires suddenly appeared. Serin swore he never knew they would come in such numbers! He recognised the lieutenant and still he was fighting this lower class vampire, 5 more started to come after him. He reached into his bandoleer and threw a stake at a vampire the vampire caught it and tossed it away.
"Huh!?" he seemed puzzled
'They shouldn't have been able to do that they must be more than lower class vampires.' He thought as he gathered his Ki.
"Vampire destroy!"
White light shot out of his hands and smashed into the nearest vampire smashing him into the others knocking them from their feet.
Ukyo got up unsteadily and saw the boy she had helped out earlier fighting what seemed like 5 dark shadowy figures. She turned around to walk into the circle where Ranma was and suddenly she was grabbed and thrown back in a wall. She looked up the lieutenant was looking at her smiling she suddenly felt very alone, she could feel his evil aura overpowering her.

Cat Café
Cologne looked up from counting the money at the till and suddenly felt an evil presence she yelled
"Mousse Shampoo come here now!"
Mousse and Shampoo ran and appeared both started asking what's wrong
"What is it great grandmother?" Shampoo asked
"Yes what is it old hag" Mousse asked a pot plant
"Over here boy!"
Mousse turned to Cologne who promptly hit him over the head with her staff
"What is it?" he repeated glowering
"Something is coming get ready" She replied and got into a fighting stance
*********
The door to the Cat café suddenly was blown apart and five shadows came in
"Vampires" Cologne hissed
Shampoo noticed a trace of fear in her great grandmother's voice this made her instantly wary of those shadows as they came in. Mousse threw his chains at them but all were dodged. One shadow grabbed the chain and pulled Mousse towards it, a tug off war ensued.
Colognes staff broke the chain and Mousse fell back so did the vampire, the vampire then disappeared into a dark portal. Shampoo pulled out her bonbori and jumped into combat with a vampire and didn't notice another vampire sneaking up behind her its red eyes and white fangs ready. Mousse ran and slammed into the vampire from behind pulling the vampire down claws came down onto Mousses hands and he tried to stab at the thing that dare hurt his Shampoo.
He was catapulted across the cat café into the wall with a thud as the vampire shook him off like he was just a doll. Cologne pulled a ward from under the counter and threw them at the vampires using her Katchu Tenshin Amaguriken speed. One hit a vampire on the head which caused it to thrashing around as the hated thing stuck to its head. Cologne then jumped avoiding the Vampires and hit her staff in the Vampires heart. Causing it to explode into dust, Cologne noticed Shampoo was on the ground both her Bonboris destroyed and her hands caught in a vice like grip of the Vampire.
With Colognes attention away she immediately was set upon by two vampires each clawing and slashing at her there speed was phenomenal and she was forced into a corner her staff blocking the strikes of the vampires her strength started to wane as she wasn't used to long fights like this and knew she had to do something.
Mousse got up unsteadily and tried to focus 'SHAMPOO!!!' the vampire had her hands pinned and he could see her looking directly into its eyes the vampire was reaching down to bite her neck Mousse realised. He pulled a wooden stake from his cloak and threw it at the vampires head just as he felt some thing open up and his feet fall from under him.
Shampoo tried to fight this creature but as soon as she neared it, it broke her bonbori like they were twigs she tried hand to hand combat and the thing had forced her to her knees grabbing both of her hands in a vice grip. She then made the mistake of looking into the vampires eyes her memory failed her and she couldn't think of who she was or what she was doing she was totally immobile and the vampires head lowered it self to her neck. Then she heard a scream of anguish and the vampire roared back with a wooden pike imbedded in its head through its eye. She now was back in control of her body she reached for a piece of her broken bonbori and stabbed the vampire in the heart it causing it to explode into a shower of dust.
Cologne powered her Ki up and was about to release it but then the vampires she was facing vanished she looked around and noticed Shampoo was okay yet where was Mousse?
***********
Kuno Manor
5 figures broke into the house they broke through a window and walked in bright lights suddenly flared.
"Who dost dare to invade the sanctuary of Tatewaki Kuno the Blue thunder of Furinkan high" Kuno yelled down at the vampire the light taking away their shadowy forms.
The vampires looked shocked they wanted this guy he sounded like he was a complete idiot well orders were orders they ran with speed at Kuno who was on top of the stairs they didn't expect resistance so were unprepared for a razor sharp hoop which sliced the head of one of their comrades and a shrunken that slammed into the chest of another.
This enraged the vampires they weren't about to fall to some fool waving a wooden sword!
"HOHOHOHOHOHO leave creatures of the night or do you want to die like your friend over there? HOHOHOHOHO Tell me does the harlot in pigtails send you to kill me HOHOHOHO"
Kuno shuddered and even the vampires shuddered 'these are a pair of total loons!' The leader of the vampire group thought.
The vampires flew and Kuno shouted
"So the vile sorcerer Ranma Saotome sends his dark minions to do battle with me bah he is no man!!"
Kuno then started to slash at the nearest vampire to him and then shouted
"strike! strike! strike! strike! strike! strike! strike!" the vampire fell apart black blood flowing from its body at just the air pressure and due to the wooden sword it hurt more then anything else.
"Hah see vile sorcerer how easily I dispatch your minions HAHAHAHAHA-urk" Kuno yelled and laughed insanely
As he was gloating he was unprepared for the other vampire who was behind him and held a face akin to disgust with a simple hard punch on the back of Kunos head Kuno was knocked out. A dark portal appeared and the vampires fled into it causing it to vanish.
Kodatchi was hurt where a claw of one of the vampires hit her it moved to finish her but then fled into the dark portal.
'Why' she thought.
Sasuke got up a bit wobbly the vampires had him he was sure his life was ended there and then but they vanished. He noticed Kodatchis arm and went to her.
"Sasuke bandage my arm"
"Yes mistress"
After the Arm was bandaged Kodatchi began to pace
"Come Sasuke we go to see me beloved Ranma Saotome he shall protect us against these unholy legions of the night and the harlot in pigtails"
"Yes mistress" Sasuke sighed
************
Tendo household
Ranma and Ryouga looked out helplessly Ranma then started to untie his rope
"What are you doing" Ryouga yelled at Ranma
"They need our help!" Ranma yelled back
Ryouga also started to undo his rope Akane saw the battle going on and saw that Serin stood no chance there were just too many so she made her decision she quickly untied the rope and jumped into the fray.
"AKANE!!" Yelled Ranma
He jumped out of his circle and ran to Akane he then punched the nearest vampire with lightning speed it smashed into the vampires face breaking its skull and jaw the vampire fell back in pain but not dead. Serin pulled out a pellet and threw it at Ranma and Akane it exploded and all the vampires near them fell back as if the gas from the pellet was acidic to vampires but it won't last long.
Serin then noticed Ukyo the lieutenant was about to bite her, the lieutenant seemed to look at him smiling them bit Ukyo. Ukyo screamed and her head shot back as the Vampire bit into her neck she could feel her blood draining away fast into the vampire's mouth making him stronger as she fell ever weaker. Finally she felt light headed and then she saw a blackness start to creep across her vision, she knew she was a few moments from death.
"NO!!! SHI SHI HOUKODAN!!!" Ryouga yelled
The Ki blast smashed into the lieutenants back hurling him from Ukyo his cloths scorched and even he was in pain from the sheer power of the blast. Ukyo fell limply to the floor and didn't move, Ryouga was instantly to her side he grabbed her and ran towards the circle, he just made it in to the circle as a vampire tried to reach him. The vampires hand came into the circle one second it was there the next it wasn't the vampire shrieked as the circle disintegrated its hand.
Ryouga looked down onto Ukyo she looked very pale but her chest rose up and down he felt her pulse and noticed that the wound wasn't healed and she was still bleeding he used his hands to try and stop the bleeding but couldn't he tore off a bandanna tears blinding his eyes and tied it round her neck to try and stop the bleeding. But he didn't have any knowledge on how to stop neck wounds especially those that had pierced veins or arteries, he looked at Kasumi
'She might have the knowledge after all she does talk with Dr Tofu an awful lot'
He made up his mind he carried Ukyo in his arms easily, then breathing deeply he ran out of the circle and tried to run into Nabiki and Kasumi's circle. Suddenly felt something open at his feet he jumped and a looked down to see a dark portal had opened and shut. Inside portal he swore he could see red eyes and an evil hiss as it missed its target. He entered Kasumi's circle as he landed and laid Ukyo on the floor gently
"Please help her" he said to them both Then turning he ran back to help Ranma and Akane
Ranma yelled Katchu Tenshin Amaguriken and threw all his punches to keep the vampires away from Akane he swore to himself that he wouldn't let them touch her! 2 vampires attacked him from behind and he fell to the floor he felt them tear into his back and felt pain lance about him he saw Ukyo then scream and saw the bright light of the Shi Shi Houkodan go off he roared in anger and threw all the vampires off him he yelled.
"Mouko Takabisha!"
The vampires that had come from behind him were thrown back at the power of his ki blast. Akane tried to help also she threw a punch and the vampire she aimed at ducked with inhuman speed and reacted fast sending an uppercut that rocked her from her feet and sent her into Ranma's arms.
Ranma felt a red haze creep across his face he yelled a ferocious battle cry and punched the vampire that had hurt Akane so hard he shattered all the bones in its chest Ribs could be heard snapping and yet still it got up! Feeling its healing system start to repair the damage.
Serin stabbed the nearest vampire and it disintegrated into dust he saw Ryouga, Akane and Ranma come out of their circles
'fools!' he thought raging silently 'they haven't the equipment or the knowledge to defeat the vampires' he stabbed another and cut off it's head he was getting tired and he noticed that all were getting tired except for the vampires they didn't know fatigue.
He jumped back as the lieutenant came back with two black daggers faintly throbbing even though his clothes were scorched.
"I owe you for the other day Serin" The Vampire hissed
"So you finally deduced it was me well I owe you for all the people you have killed!!!"
They clashed again daggers making clanging and slashing sounds as Serin noticed that the vampire was hurt 'that Ki blast hurt him that one from Ryouga' he swept a broad slash and the vampire dodged it then threw a black bolt of Ki at Serin.
Serin crossed his daggers and was still thrown back all though most off the dark energy was absorbed.
Ryouga punched the nearest vampire and it went down he got to where Ranma and Akane are and they formed a triangle protecting each other Ryouga formed a Ki blast and threw it at the nearest vampires
"SHI SHI HOUKODAN!"
"MOUKO TAKABISHA!"
But every time they threw them back they came back to them and they didn't tier while Ryouga felt his strength drain. Both Ranma and Ryouga sensed it again the portal they thought in horror Ranma pushed Akane out of the way and jumped out of the way, Ryouga jumped but the vampire that had a broken chest jumped and collided on purpose with Ryouga both falling of them fell into the black portal which sealed itself again as if it was never there.
"NO!!!" Ranma yelled then he turned aside there he felt dread creeping up his spine there were only 7 Vampires left Serin was fighting with the lieutenant and it seemed that the others were healing there injuries then they came for him.
He grabbed Akane and threw her into his now empty circle he went in with her and tied the rope to her waist.
"What are you doing Ranma!?"
"Saving your life stupid!" He retorted
Ranma then jumped back out before she had a chance to yell at him, he had to stop them from attacking Serin, he attacked but this time he was thrown against the wall as a vampire ducked under his punch and replied with one of its own, the strength of that punch took away Ranmas wind as well as the impact with the wall.
He slid down the wall and then his hands found something, the stake that Serin had dropped 'yes' he thought the nearest vampire reached him and he stabbed it in the heart exploding it into dust. All the other vampire drew back he now had a weapon that he could use against them. One vampire though shouted
"Get him you fools!!"
It was said in a way that promised great punishment if disobeyed Ranma held the stake now dripping dark red almost black blood down his hand from the Vampire he stabbed.
"Katchu Tenshin Amaguriken!"
Ranma yelled and the vampire then fell to dust, a dark portal opened and the vampires he was facing vanished he wondered where they had gone and in that split second another portal opened right under him, he jumped but something snagged his leg and pulled him down. He fell but his hand caught the edge of the hole, he felt the vampires pulling him down he could feel their red eyes and their hunger for him.
His hand slipped and he felt someone grab him. Akane reached out of the circle she saw that they had all vanished and then the portal had opened on Ranma and he had fallen. She had almost giving in to despair that he had fallen in when she saw his hand she untied the rope and then tied it on her foot she jumped and out of the circle and grabbed Ranma's hand.
Ranma looked up it was Akane! She was holding him he could see the strain on her face to keep him from falling, he was still being dragged down by the Vampires and Akanes strength was no match for theirs.
Serin still was fighting the lieutenant they clashed daggers slicing the air as they fought lightning flashed from their blades as they met. He saw Ranma do his technique and cut down the vampires that got to close but the lieutenant was keeping him from helping Ranma he also was getting frustrated but he noticed that the vampire was equally frustrated.
"Damn you all the way to hell Serin just lose already!!!"
"I'm going to send you there myself vampire and I never lose!!!"
Serin knew better then to try and out last this vampire, vampires never tire he must do something.
Akane couldn't hold onto Ranma they were dragging him down but she wouldn't let go, Ranma noticed that Akane wasn't going to let go and was going to be dragged down with him and most likely killed.
"Akane you let go of me!"
"No!"
"You must or we'll both get dragged down"
"Would you let go!"
Ranma didn't answer he didn't have to, there was a creaking sound then he realised what it was
'the ceiling!
It was connected to the rope, which was connected to Akane which also the only thing was keeping Akane from falling with him in to the pit. He must make her let go otherwise she would be captured with him, Akane felt Ranma's hand start to warm then get hot she looked Ranma was heating his hand with Ki to make her let go but she can't!
"Ranma stop!"
"Let me go I don't want you to die!"
"I won't or you'll die!"
"You don't know that!"
Ranmas hand got unbearable hot as it charged with more Ki Akane felt like she her hand being burned the rope that was holding her from falling she felt start to give. Suddenly she let go at the same time the rope gave and the ceiling attached to the rope broke forming a hole yet she didn't fall into the pit she looked around there was Genma Saotome holding the rope with both hands to keep her from falling into the pit like Ranma just did.
"AKANE!!!"
"RANMA NO!!!"
Serin turned his head it was the opening the vampire was waiting for it slashed him in a side ways motion to cut his skull in two but Serin had turned and jumped back so instead it cut him across his forehead
"arghh"
Serin shouted clutching his face
"You lose hunter"
The lieutenant swung its dagger again and was amazed that it was stopped by Serins dagger
"I'll never die by the likes of you!!!"
Serin yelled and stabbed his other dagger in the surprised vampire chest but it missed the heart because of the blood blinding Serin's eyes yet it was enough to hurt the vampire substantially. The lieutenant fell back then shouted
"This is not over Serin! Come to fight me and get your friends back if you dare you know where"
Then a portal opened then vanished.

Serin turned his head it was the opening the vampire was waiting for it slashed him in a side ways motion to cut his skull in two but Serin had turned and jumped back so instead it cut him across his forehead
"arghh"
Serin shouted clutching his face
"You lose hunter"
The lieutenant swung its dagger again and was amazed that it was stopped by Serins dagger
"I'll never die by the likes of you!!!"
Serin yelled and stabbed his other dagger in the surprised vampire chest but it missed the heart because of the blood blinding Serin's eyes yet it was enough to hurt the vampire substantially. The lieutenant fell back then shouted
"This is not over Serin! Come to fight me and get your friends back if you dare you know where"
Then a portal opened then vanished.
