Chapter 8

Selina's plan

"Password?" – asked familiar rude voice.

"Hear full moon's call …"

"… and follow blood's lust. Right, come in."

The door opened and a tall scruffy looked werewolf in brown shorts greeted Selin and Kiara. They went trough a dark corridor and found themselves in a bar. The bar looked like normal humans' closed club, but with few differences. First the visitors were mostly witches, werewolves and some vampires, second: there was a strange menu, included blood (first group or second), heart and liver besides other types of meat – roast or boiled, and some human's food as quails with basil sauce and big list of wines, beer, martini, etc. Music was different, from modern to classic. Five years ago turned vampires of San-Francisco celebrated here the 14 of December – the day when Count Dracula five hundred years ago bit his first bride and created first true turned vampire. This holiday was accompanied with bloody sumptuous feast and death of fifty humans in one day. Of course it attracted attention of police and hunters, so the grand feast was cancelled by the Council.

Selin and Kiara sat at the table in the corner.

"Hey, Tom! Bring fresh liver, please!" – cried Ki to old barmen who was a little bit deaf. Tom nodded and sent one young waiter to their table.

"Liver, yes. And you, Miss Kale?" – asked Fred. He respected Selina and knew what she can do in bad mood. But she was smiling warmly and Fred calmed down.

"As usual, Freddy, one second group and red wine."

The waiter bowed and went to Tom. He was surprised; Kale had never called him like that, but 'boy' or 'Fred Nimble'.

"What's the matter with you, Sel? You're so happy tonight, almost shining!" – asked Kiara in surprise.

"Really? I'm glad that Fellan is alright, that's all," – she answered simply but her friend didn't believe it and was still looking at her with suspicions.

"Don't lie, I know you rather well, and when you're lying your eyes become grey."

Selina laughed nervously and decided to tell Kiara what happened yesterday night … and day in fact.

"Do you remember Count Dracula?"

"Of course, go on."

"Well, hm, listen …"

Sel told her friend about that night and Vladislaus, Ki was a little bit shocked:

"You slept with Dracula! Are you crazy!"

"Don't shout so loudly, he's a great lover."

"O.K., O.K! But … have you forgotten John?"

"I hate him, he betrayed my love. When he left, I thought that my job will be my single aim in life. I've forgotten how is it, to be beloved and love someone. I killed humans and demons. That was my hilarity. And Vlad … He reminded me that I'm not an insensible kill machine but a woman."

Kiara took her friend's hand and smiled kindly:

"He is the greatest man in the world if he helped you to reborn from hollowness in which you lived."

"Thanks, Ki."

Fred (finally!) brought them what they wanted, and they both were keeping silence while eating (or drinking).

"I think Dracula isn't the single reason of our meeting." – said Kiara thoughtfully. Selina became serious:

"You right. I have a plan how to get some information about 'VWW 13'."

"You mean monsters?" – werewolf swallowed big piece of liver.

"Yes. Hunters reached more success in destroying these creatures, and they know much more about them."

"What you intimate?"

"I'll get into their pub. I'm sure, they're boasting their victories and exchange information, I'll wear like a hunter and get the information, we need. That's a good plan."

Kiara looked at her skeptically:

"Why do you think, they won't recognize you?"

"I know, I'm a little bit different from humans but, we must do anything to the name of our great race!"

"Do what you want. But if they'll kill you, I shall scold myself before the end of ages!"

"Where is your optimism? I'll come back with victory!.. Somehow …"

Selina's POV

Sometimes I surprise myself with the most strange and delirious ideas. Who am I to make plans! I'm going to visit 'the nest of murderers'! But I had to do something! I hate to wait and to waste time! So I wore by 'hunters' fashion: high boots with small heels, shirt with low neckline (I haven't got clothes without low neckline! That's my habit!), pants and of course sun glasses. We wear sunglasses to protect eyes from bright light, but why hunters wear them at night? I guess they're show up!

Then I took two pistols for silver bullets and a wooden stake. It's only seemed dangerous but it wasn't real, the pistols hadn't got bullets and in the stake was hidden the iron blade. I didn't want to be unprotected from hunters. I know they're weak but their reaction is rather well and they killed many of my friends. Well, I knew where their pub was, but I didn't know the password and had to act by the situation. On my luck two hunters with self-complacent smirks on their faces. Oh, how I wanted to swab those smirks from their mugs! Killed someone of us and happy! Miserable creatures! But they were my chance to get into the pub. I read their mind quickly and poke them both with my knife. How sweet it was to feel them shaking in agony! I watched the last breath flew down from their lips. It's as pleasant as sex for me, really!

"Password?"

"Hm, 'God bless us, together we'll destroy hell's monsters,'" – I said without enthusiasm. Foolish password!

"Right, come in."

The door opened and I entered the pub, "Heaven", yes it called like that. There weren't many visitors, six humans and I. Men looked at me with lust in their eyes, and I could feel their gazes on me. Bastards! Well, I sat at the pub rack, and the waitress – crestfallen girl with blue eyes addressed to me:

"What do you want to drink, miss?"

"Red wine." – I said firmly, I knew she was innocent in my friends' death but I hated her only because she was a human. The girl looked at me with fear and gave me the glass. I watched people at the sides of the pub rack and noticed one hunter look, almost undressing me with eyes. But I decided not to show him that I guessed his plans and asked the girl, more kindly this time:

"Tell me, have you heard you about strange monsters looked like werewolves with wings?"

She nodded and whispered quietly:

"Yes, yes! Most hunters met them! They said that monsters are very strong! Only The Left hand of God can destroy them, in my opinion."

Aha, Vatican knows about monsters, maybe they'll send a troop here. Interesting, very interesting!

"What else? Had anyone killed one or two?"

"Oh, yes! Skull!"

"Who!"

"Skull is one of the members of "Night fighters", very fortunate command!"

I smiled to myself; there are so many hunters' commands! I don't know most of them!

"Why Skull?"

"He wears a T-shirt with a skull on it."

"I see. Where can I find him?"

"That's simple! He's there," – the girl nodded to the left from her and I saw this guy. It was bastard, who was gazing on me all the time! 'Great! Everything's going to be worse and worse!' – I thought to myself. But it was time of big game! I slowly walked to Skull; he grinned widely and put hand on his lap:

"Want to sit on lap of uncle Scull, sweetie?"

Oh, how wonderful that I have wore sunglasses! When I heard his offer, my eyes changed colors very fast, how I wanted to champ into his neck!

"Not this time. Waitress said you met unknown monsters."

"Yeah! It was good fight!"

"So you know how to kill them without risk?" – I can't read his mind in sunglasses, for this I need eye-contact. I could only ask questions.

"Maybe …" – Scull put hands on my waste and pressed me closer. I couldn't do anything at all! If he'll notice that I'm not a hunter, I'm dead!

"Just answer: how!"

"Why do you want to know?" – Scull released me and I came to the back of him then I started massaging his shoulders, whispering seductively:

"Come on; tell me, how such smart guy destroyed the whole band of awful monsters?"

Sometimes I can be very tender, when I want! Scull relaxed and enjoyed my massage much.

"When I met them, I tried to kill them as werewolves using silver bullets."

'Like Van Helsing,' – I thought, remembering our first meeting. Interesting, where is he now?

"Go on," – I whispered into his ear playfully.

"Alright, baby! Silver bullets made them angrier. So I took my wooden stake!" – Scull throw up the stake and caught it in the air, to impress me, I think. Foolish mortal! Playing with such dangerous thing! Well, well, enjoy your superiority while you can!

"You're very brave! Had it worked?" – I continued playing in innocence. Oh, I was a great actress! Where is my 'Oscar'!

"Not much, but they became weaker! So I took simple iron weapon, which, I guess, we both use against witches and demons, and killed them!"

"And details?.." – This is it! The culmination! I felt how my heart (and I haven't got heartbeat), jumped from my chest into throat in excitement.

"Ah, details! I understood that they're a kind of mongrel of vampire, werewolf and witch. If we mix kinds of weapons, we can kill them easily!"

Simple but powerful! This is the answer!

"You're a hero! Thanks for information!" – With these words I turned to exit, but Scull hold my hand tightly.

"Wait a minute! I helped you, now help me, sugar. Maybe we can leave this pub and find more secluded and intimate place, you know what I mean."

Proud of immortals came back to me and I became firm and severe as always.

"Get away your hand, while I haven't cut it away!"

"This isn't very nice! Be tender with me, sweetie!" – He grinned evilly and put his dirty hands on my thighs. That was enough to make me very angry! Hate filled my heart, I couldn't control myself! I felt how my canines became longer, then I took his hand and broke it easily as it was match, enjoying crunch of conking bones. Scull screamed in agony:

"You're a vampire!"

"Right, bastard!" – I released him and looked at other people in the pub. They were standing in great shock, looking how my fangs returning into normal. I understood how awful my mistake was! Five tall and strong hunters (without Scull, who was sobbing bitterly on the floor) ready to kill me. 'Great, Sel! You have big problems,' – I said to myself, taking my single weapon – knife. Hunters surrounded me; still not believing that vampire could get into their secret staff. I surprised them and now I should pay for it. I tried to hypnotize them, but my brain couldn't hold them all under control! I was in trap and prepared to die, but someone took my shoulders and threw me out of the pub with force. I was too shocked to see who it was, and when I was 'flying' out I met with the wooden door and open it with my head! Terrible pain ran through my body and I was shaking in agony on the ground. Oh, this headache droved me mad! Black blood streamed from wound on my head and by my face. I spit it and tried to get up but everything was spinning in my eyes and that horrible pain! It was torture for me! I fall on the ground, and the world around me dissapeared.
