Hey there, another Chapter here, with something that, hopefully, you didn't see coming.
Disclaimey-thing: I still don't own Darkstalkers, damn Capcom and their high-priced lawyers.
John, Felicia, and HellHound exited the building, prepared for a fight, but not this. "Give us the Half-breed," the two-dozen demons commanded in unison. "B-B-But...this cannot be!" John stuttered, they were all Jedah! Suddenly one of the Jedahs near the rear of the group had a long stinger burst out of his chest, it was Queen Bee. "Come with me if you want to live!" the insectoid shouted in a buzzing voice. They ran towards her and Q. Bee lifted Felicia off the ground by the feline's shoulders, and HellHound did the same with John. "You will not escape!" the Jedahs shouted and began their chase.
The Quartet flew into the mass of Skyscrapers in the city. Weaving in between the buildings, Queen Bee and HellHound proved to have better agility as more than a few of the Jedahs flew into windows and neon signs, among other things. Dropping to street level they managed to elude the clones.
"What the Hell!?!" HellHound asked the female insect. "I'm not sure, they started to show up a few months after the original Jedah was destroyed. They don't seem as strong, but they outnumbered us," she replied. "But how?" John asked in bafflement. "Like I said, I don't know, but if we want to find out we should get some back up," Queen Bee added. "Alright, I'll go stop by an Internet café, I should be able to contact most of our friends," John said as he ran off in human form. "I think we might need a little more than a handful of your 'friends' here, like an army or the marines or something," HellHound thought aloud. "Each of our friends can eat the marines for breakfast, don't worry they'll do just fine," Felicia said with a sly smile.
Several hours later...
Five vehicles entered the metropolis, A black Jaguar carrying the Vampire King and his demonic love. Then an old beat up powder-blue VW van with some permafrost visible near the wheel wells, inside rid Sasquatch and Rikuo, the latter of which had complained the whole way about the sub-standard vehicle. A nineteen-eighty's, blue sedan, holding the telekinetic monk, Donovan. A green SUV, carrying the phantom, Hisien-Ko. And finally, a small, yellow vehicle that looked very similar to a bumper car, with a small boy in its only seat, this was Huitzil.
"You all made it!" Felicia said happily seeing her friends, Victor and Lilith had gotten there much earlier since they already lived in the city. "Wait, why are you two here?" Felicia asked in confusion at seeing Demitri and Morrigan. "They still owe us since the whole kidnapping thing," John answered with Demitri going a bright shade of red, he was frustrated that he actually had to ever do something in compensation for his actions. "Why did you call us here anyway? All you said was that it was urgent, what's going on?" Rikuo asked. "Well, remember Jedah," Q. Bee said. "YES...WAIT DID NOT YOU WORK FOR HIM?" Sasquatch said or, rather for him. yelled. "Kinda but that's not the point. He's back," Q. Bee replied. "So, we beat him before, no problem, right?" Rikuo asked. "Well, yeah there is a problem, there's more than one Jedah," Q. Bee said. All of them except for John and his group stood there slack-jawed, while a few sparks could be seen spurting from the sides of Huitzil's head along with a few sayings of 'Does not compute'.
"Hi, I'm Hisien-Ko," the apparition said, directed towards HellHound who was sitting in the corner of the vacant 'Concrete Jungle'. "Hi, I'm stunned, I mean HellHound," he replied, he thought she was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen. "Well, nice to meet you, why are you here?" she asked after a slight giggle. "Honestly, I don't know anymore, I haven't in six years actually," he replied with a sigh. "I hear ya, I was like that for awhile after I died," she said with a sigh of her own. "You're...very beautiful," HellHound said, after a few minutes of silence. "Why thank you," Hisien-Ko replied a little surprised at the compliment. "Just stating the obvious," HellHound added before walking away.
Well, what'cha think of the surprise? I think there's going to be two more chapters in this story, a revelation as to what's going on and then the climax, tell me what you think.
