They realised it was mid night by the time they finished talking, The Original would be making great progress by now, But they wanted to feed first, Selene still though that feeding off mortals was bad but she was willing to try it this time. They ventured through the streets until they found a drug dealer, they approached him and he asked.

"I got everything you need, what'ca need?"

"You actually." Ryan pushed the dealer out of view and dug his teeth in, after a few seconds he ushered Selene to try some, she dug her teeth in and began to feast, and it was magnificent, the warm blood rushed down her throat, it was warm and sweet like nothing else she had tasted before. After feeding they went to the underground facility where The Original and The Ultimate Vampire Treasure were held.

A very tall, very thin scientist was waiting for Ryan and Selene in the hall outside the chamber where The Original was being restored. Michael was already in there, when Ryan walked Michael felt a cold shudder, but the though of what lay in that chamber didn't scare him so much anymore. The scientist addressed Ryan.

"Ah, Master McCarthy, how do you do?" Ryan McCarthy was obviously not Ryan's original name, but years ago Ryan changed his name to that as a way of being more Irish.

"I am very well, how does The Original do?"

"He is going very well, his body is almost completely restored but he has not yet awoken, we know why and I'm not going to bore you with the details."

"Excellent, I suppose." Selene spoke.

"It is excellent, he'll teach us about our past."

"Our destroy us." The professor ushered the two into the chamber, as they did The Original moved, it was just a twitch but computers that were monitoring his condition said that he should be awake very soon. As they waited they could see his body make some final changes, he grew long, sleek, shiny perfect black hair, down just beyond his shoulders, his face was beautiful and was gaining a angelic glow, his lips became blood red, his body took shape, his body was like that of a god, his appearance was...perfect, he was beautiful.

They stood there, an eerie silence covered the room as they waited, and then it happen, The Original woke up. He looked around, his eyes like a deep pit that led to the brightest, warmest fires of hell.

One of the soldiers suddenly began to convulse. He collapsed eventually. People crowded around him but all attention was soon put to The Original when he spoke.

"Don't worry about him, he'll be fine in a few days." His voice was deep and inhuman; his voice was that of a sci-fi super human or alien. Selene spoke to him.

"You speak English."

"Yes, I know everything about this world that your pawn knew, what you where lucky enough to just see was a brain drain, an ability gained by a very old Vampire." He stood up, his movement was that of a colossus or a living statue, he extended a hand and the body of the soldier flew to him. He took off the soldier's clothes and put them on.

"You may all bow to me now." Some did and some didn't, Selene did and Ryan didn't, neither did Michael.

"Why do you not bow to me? Am I not your god?"

"You are not our god, you are our equal." Ryan said this and then ushered for everyone to stand up, most did.

"You shall never be equal to me, nothing is ever going to equal me, now bring me sacrifices." His face did looked angry, a sort of bored angry.

"We don't give sacrifices anymore."

"What?!"

"We don't give sacrifices anymore! I though you said you knew everything about the modern world."

"I do, and I still expected that you would make exceptions."

"Well, we won't."

"Then I shall take my leave and feast of this world."

"You can't leave yet, we are not convinced that we can trust you, the world is very balanced."

"No, I'm leaving." The Original looked at the people blocking the door and they flew aside at his mental command.

"Shoot to kill!" Ryan shouted and started baring his fangs; men picked up their guns and started shooting. The Original started moving side-to-side like an agent from the Matrix Some of the soldiers threw there weapons aside and made the metamorphosis that only a Lycon can make, The Lycons charged at him and in retaliation he also transformed, except his Lycon stage was very different, he was basically the same size, much more demonic, more human at the same time, he resembled his old self, but 'wolfed out.'

The Lycons jumped on him but he slashed at them faster than they could react. Ryan, Selene and Michael were trying to escape.

"Ryan, you know what we have to do!" Michael was getting agitated.

"I hope you don't mean fight him."

"No, we have to use your little secret."

"No, we don't. First we have to get that thing out of the complex." Michael transformed into his hybrid form.

"You and me will hold him off, Selene will have to do it."

"Your...right." Ryan gave Selene very detailed instructions as to the whereabouts of the room where he had brought Michael; he told her that she'd know what to do. She ran off, Ryan looked at Michael once she was gone.

"If we're going to stand a chance against him you know what you have to do." Ryan had wanted the gift of being a hybrid since Michael arrived, but because of his age it would take more than any Lycon to change him, it would take Michael but Michael had always refused to bite Ryan.

"Fine." Michael bit Ryan and after a moment pushed him back, Ryan began to convulse as his body changed.

While it was happening some vampires ran up to them.

"We have to evacuate the complex." They started to push Michael but Michael shrugged them off and said.

"We're not leaving, we are going to fight that thing, and we are going to die trying of it's the case."

"Sir, you didn't see what we saw, he'll kill us all."

"Then you better stay to help us."

"Sir that's suicide."

"Well, we brought it into this world, your master is going under the change to become a hybrid, combined with his strength we might be able to gather enough time to unleash a super weapon."

"What are talking about?!"

"You'll see." Suddenly they heard a laugh that came from the beast they had unleashed, he was walking down the hall towards them.

The soldiers prepared there guns and aimed, Michael cracked his knuckles, and Ryan was nearly finished changed.

"I am Anub'Arak, I am what all existence strives to be, and you get the pleasure of dying at my hands." They all rushed him, some shouting and shooting, some just shooting; Michael had a pistol and was shooting until he got into punching reach.

Anub'Arak simply swept a hand aside that sent the Vampire's sprawling, Michael went for a dive to punch him in the face, but he ducked under Michael and grabbed his arm and wrenched it around, then he threw Michael aside.

One Vampire shoved a gun right up to Anub'Araks back and started shooting, Anub'Arak who was at this time after removing the bullet proof vest and had just the long jacket on. (All of Ryan's private army were bullet proof vests, long jackets, dark pants and heavy boots.) He threw off the jacket and revealed that the bullets just fell out of him and the wounds healed.

"H...ho...how can this be?" The soldier was confused and scared. Anub'Arak plunged his arm through the soldiers' chest and ripped out his heart.

"You'll never know!" Anub'Arak killed the Vampires as if it was child play. Michael proved a little trouble, and right as he was about to deal the deathblow Ryan grabbed his fist.

"Play with this hybrid Anub'Arak!"
