Selene and Kahn stepped over the corpses of the Lycan guards. Each with one bullet in their head, the gunfire, though brief, definitely blew the element of surprise from their list of options. Kahn looked over at Selene. She had been quiet ever since they'd left the mansion.
Mason and Kahn had talked while loading their weapons and preparing to enter the Lycans' tunnels. "So, Selene didn't look to happy at the price of her absolution." Mason said.
"No, she didn't. But I highly doubt that she'd disobey Viktor." Kahn said. But after the events of the past few days, I'm not sure I'd put anything past her.
Mason grinned. "Betcha Selene's pissed off. All Kraven had to do to get his absolution was to kill Lycan scum. She's got to kill off her boyfriend."
Kahn nodded. "Yes, but I don't think that she'd turn down absolution and the eternal luxury that goes with it for a damn Lycan." Mason was about to say something when Selene had walked into the room.
She walked in, grabbed a few clips of ammo, and left. Kahn scoffed. "Didn't look too pissed off to me."
Mason faked a look of disappointment. "Aww, man."
Kahn had smiled. Mason 3, Kahn 3.
Snapped back into reality, Kahn continued to scan his surroundings. Kahn raised his hand to signal the Death Dealers behind him. Everybody seemed ready. Guns were fully loaded, the Death Dealers sharp, and everyone ready for action. While everyone else had chose to use AK-74s assault rifles, Selene chose her Berettas. Kahn unhitched a grenade, and tossed it into the pit. It rattled its way down…
"Oh shit!" Kahn could here the swear from below. An earth-shaking blast sounded, and Kahn could hear the Lycans' screaming as gore flew through the air. The stench made Kahn's nose twitch.
After a few moments, Kahn could hear the sound of transformed Lycans approaching the origin of the blast. Selene, Kahn, Mason, and the rest of the team jumped into the pit. As they were landing, they began shooting at the Lycans. Although the Lycans shot back, all were killed without a loss on the vampires' side. Kahn glanced briefly at Selene. She had look of impatience written on her face. She really wants to find Michael… Kahn thought. But not for the reasons he thought.
If Selene needs help handling the Lycan, Kahn thought, I'd be more than happy to help. But this was her moment, he realized ruefully. She'd have to do it herself.
Then, Kahn's mind went to Kraven,
Kraven. he thought, his anger rising. All these years, he's lied and betrayed us. All these years he spent in luxury were unfairly his. Kahn waved those thoughts away. He had to concentrate on the task at hand. Suddenly, he heard something behind him. He whirled around, only to see Selene run in the other direction.
"Selene?" He asked. When he received no answer, he called out again.
"Selene!" He motioned for the team to follow him. What the hell is she up to?
Where are you? Kahn wondered. It wasn't in character for Selene to just wander off without her team, or back-up. If she's capable of this, can she kill Michael?
Kahn pushed away his doubts again. If only I had made more SN guns… Kraven, that rat, had stolen the only one. Shit-feeding asshole, he cursed spitefully.
Kahn snapped into reality, when a soft clattering caught his attention. The team stopped immediately and Kahn ventured further.
A Lycan roared, and Kahn fired instinctively. A second Lycan appeared, and before Kahn could shoot, he saw his immortal life flash before his eyes.
Another sound of gunfire woke him up from his memories. Mason had shot the second Lycan, the first already dead from Kahn's attack.
That was close, Kahn realized. "Thanks." Kahn said to Mason. When Mason didn't react, Kahn looked around and saw why. Mason had also taken out a few other Lycans who had appeared, but too late. They had killed the rest of the team. Only Mason and Kahn were left.
As Kahn and Mason started to make their way around the tunnels, Kahn thought in silence, and decided to give Mason the benefit of the doubt. Mason 4, Kahn 3.
