Chapter 10

Julian gripped the steering wheel in a white knuckled grip. He kept grating his teeth against each other as he fought the onslaught of emotions that were flowing through him. He knew he should sent Norman and his friends back to the Moonray where they would be safe as he and the Winchester brothers dealt with the horror show that was happening in Blithe Hallow. He knew that Norman was a kid, but the boy knew more about the town than he did. Sure he did the research before he had been sent out to the town to collect him and find out why this town was the heart for supernatural activity after Gravity Falls, but they were not interested in Gravity Falls. The small town to the west of Blithe Hallow and in five states away was not on Seth's radar and so it was not on theirs. Not yet. He knew that he would soon have to go over to Gravity Falls or Nightshade would have another UNIT agent sent out to the town.

Thinking back to Norman he moved his eyes away from the road to study the hero of Blithe Hallow. He was watching out of the window as the car drove through the streets that were utter chaos. The citizens of Blithe Hallow were running about in a blind panic as they tried to figure what was happening to their town. He returned his attention back to the road to see many people staring at his car along with the other black car that was behind him. Looking at the review mirror he got a glimpse of the headlights of the Impala that was keeping up with his Aston Martin. Watching the Impala sent a shiver down his spine. Once again he had conflicting emotions from the two men in the Impala.

The Winchester Brothers were two of the most well known Hunters in America. He had even heard about them from Britain. He had never thought he would meet the Winchesters and need their help in fighting a case. His soldier side of them was telling him that he needed help and the only help that he had at the moment was the brothers. He had hoped that either Nightshade or Edward would be able to lend him a hand with this issue, but at the moment they were busy with their own missions. He didn't know where Nightshade was and he knew that Edward was no doubt neck deep in problems in Japan. His supernatural side, the Werewolf was clawing and snarling at the gates of its cage to get away from them. It didn't want to meet a horrible end that had befallen so many other supernatural creatures. It was taken everything he had learned through the wars that he had fought to keep the beast in at bay.

"Julian?"

The sound of his name being spoken out caused him to look for the source of the person speaking. He had thought it was his comm. systems but when he checked the computer screen that was under the radio. The screen was blank showing that there was no one from the outside trying to get in touch with him. He had hoped for a second that it was Nightshade telling him that she was getting ready to come to Blithe Hallow to give him the backup that he needed. He needed backup for the mission and for dealing with the two Hunters that even other Hunters were afraid of. He knew that the lie he had told was based on the truth but even that would soon be discovered and he hoped that he was well away from the States when they had figured it out.

He looked over to see Norman staring at him with those blue eyes that caused a shiver to allows go down his spine. There was something about that stare that made him want to hide and remain hidden. "Yeah Norman?" he asked the Medium hero of Blithe Hallow. He returned his eyes back to the road and was able to dodge an old women who was looking up at the sky.

Norman remained silent for a brief second before he spoke again, "You know those two men don't you? Or you have heard of them?" he asked the Werewolf.

Julian sighed and ran his hand through his snow white hair. He glanced in the rear-view mirror to see that Courtney was staring at him with those big eyes of hers. She had made it clear that she fancied him since they had first meet. He was known to flirt with women during missions, but he always made sure that they were not in a part of the mission that he was leading. He had to finish this mission quickly or Norman's older sister was going to make him wish that he had gone to Skaro instead of Nightshade.

"I do, Norman! Every creature of supernatural origin knows who they are!" he replied. He was still keeping his eyes on the road ahead. He was still ready for anything to jump out at them even if he was travelling slightly faster than the speed limit for the town. The roaring of his cars engine was enough to cover the roaring thunder in the sky.

"And?" Neil asked finally coming into the conversation. He leaned forward in his chairs with his seatbelt still keeping him in place in his chair behind Norman.

Julian sighed and was once again running a hand through his hair. Why was he doing this? He should call for backup? He knew that there was an army out there. He had heard it from Hazel herself. These were the monsters that had been badly effected by the Hunters and did not care about the Code of the Underworld. The Code that they knew was protected by Nightshade and the Horsemen of Death and War. "They are what they themselves and us call Hunters. Those two are the Winchester Brothers. Two of the most well known Hunters in all of America. We have also heard about them in the UK but that is also because we have bases all around the world. They kill anything that is supernatural even if it is a witch who uses her powers to tend to her garden or make her cooking of the best cake in town!" he replied. He could already feel his anger growing and the Wolf was so close to making an appearance.

Norman was about to say something back to Julian but he stopped as Julian slammed his foot on the break. The tires squealed at the sudden decrease of speed that caused the car to come to a sudden stop. Beside them the Impala rolled to a stop. Norman looked back out at the road to see what had caused Julian to stop the car so suddenly. His eyes widened and he heard Courtney gasp before she reached for Julian's arm. Her hand went through his arm and she tried again only for a growl to escape from Julian's throat which caused her to pull back.

"Stay in the car! Do not come out no matter what! If I have a problem call the Moonray!" he said as he handed Norman his phone. "Tell the Moonray that I need backup! They will know what to do!" he finished saying as he reached for his rifle that he had placed at his feet just under the pedals. Without another word he got out of the car and slammed the drivers door shut.

He kept his gaze levelled as he approached what had caused him to stop so suddenly. He had a feeling that there was some damage done to the break pads and he knew that his beloved car would need to go in for repairs and that would mean another meeting with Osgood and Bonnie. The two scientists looked after all their gear and hated it when they damaged their gear. It had not long ago that his Aston Martin had been in the repair bay and he had been hit in the back of the head by an angry scientist.

"Who are you?" he asked the skeleton that was wearing a black suit with a bat bowtie. His rifle was aimed at the skeleton and the clicking of guns beside him altered him that the brothers were standing beside him with their guns aimed at the skeleton.

The skeleton raised its hands in a sign of surrender. "I am not here to cause any problems! I am only here to take Norman Babcock away from here before he is used to cause great problems for Halloween!" the skeleton spoke in a well educated voice.

"That is not going to happen!" Dean snapped keeping his gun aimed at the skeleton. "The boy is just a boy why would you want him other than some barbaric ritual to whatever Pagan good that you are!" he shouted over the roaring thunder.

The skeleton looked back towards Dean. Its eye sockets were wide which Julian had never seen before. "I am only going to take him away until Oggie Boogie has been captured along with his ally!" the skeleton said. He kept a distance away from the two Hunters who were keeping the lights of the cars behind them. They needed to see if something was going to sneak up on them from any point.

"Whoes his ally?" Julian asked clicking his rifle to life. He had to keep up the image that he was a Hunter, even of he knew who this was.

"I'm surprised that you need to ask that Werewolf! Considering how long you have been fighting against Seth!" the skeleton replied turning his attention back to Julian who whinched at the mention of Werewolf. He glanced over at Dean to see that he was pointing his rifle at him now while Sam was still keeping the skeleton in his eye. "Your undercover aren't? I've heard about you! You're a Shadow Man aren't you?" the skeleton asked as he slowly walked towards Julian.

Julian kept his rifle aimed at him. "Not another step Jack! I'm warning you!" he growled. His rifle hummed to life as he prepared to fire it at the Pumpkin King.

"You've heard of me?" Jack asked as he looked towards the Werewolf. The Werewolf who was keeping the beast in the cage a lot better than any other Werewolf he had seen before. He knew the moon was out, it had been in the night sky for five nights now. He took another step back when the Werewolf clicked the rifle and aimed it at his head. There was a slight growl appearing in the Werewolf's throat but he was keeping the Wolf in its cage. He took a quick glance over at the two humans that were standing beside the Werewolf. He had a growing feeling that they did not know that they were standing beside a Werewolf. Another growing suspicion was that these men were Hunters. This was a dangerous game that the Werewolf was playing with the Hunters.

The Werewolf clicked the rifle again. He bared his teeth that were whiter than he had seen before.

Julian was fighting an ongoing war. He knew who the skeleton was. A skeleton who loved Halloween so much that he had backstabbed Nightshade so many times that it was not clear whose side he was on. "I've heard of you! There has been a few times that you and me have grossed past. Especially when you breach the laws that is written into the Code!" he snapped back at Jack Skellington.

The Pumpkin King of Halloween took another step back. "Your one of the Argentix's aren't you? That means Nightshade must be close by! You can tell her that I did not mean anything of breaking the Code that she had worked so hard to keep all of us safe!" Jack argued back at Julian. "You must understand that every year that I have to come up with new ideas for Halloween to make it as scary as the year before! But you must understanding I am not the real monster doing all this!" he said to Julian.

"Who?" Julian asked. He had completely forgotten about the two Hunters standing beside him and watching his every move. He had forgotten about the teenagers who had no doubt left his car even after he told them to remain in the car.

That was when chuckling was heard. Julian who had not heard the approaching Anubid until they were right on top of him. He was pinned under clawed hands and his rifle was forced out of his hand, before it was kicked away from him by the Anubid. It snarled at him as Sam and Dean moved their attention from the skeleton to the Anubid before they were forced to the ground by two massive Skinwalkers. Their large clawed fingers nicked their flesh as they forced the two tall Hunters into the ground.

Julian looked towards his rifle that was just lying on the ground no more than a few inches away from his hand. A few inches that were too far for his hand that was trapped under the fully transformed Anubid. His blue eyes turned back towards the Anubid to find its muzzle was right in front of him by only an inch. Its hot breathe and droll smashed into his face. It took all of his power not to transform and tare the Anubid apart. He and the Anubid know that he was the strongest out of both of them.

"Greetings again Mr Wolffang!" rattled a voice that Julian had hoped that he would not hear again. Julian looked up to see a man in a suit walking towards him. His yellow eyes and Ancient Egyptian tattoos glowed with a supernatural magic. Walking beside him was what Julian could only describe as a potato sack with eyes and a vampire he knew too well. Count Dracula smirked as he looked down at the trapped Werewolf.

Julian looked back to Seth. Already white fur was staring to grow on his arms and his face as he slowly allowed the Wolf out of its cage. He could feel his nails becoming claws and already his senses were getting sharper as the Wolf slowly took hold. His blue eyes darkened at the Wereset who dared to show his face. It had been seventy years since they had last seen him and now he appeared again. First he had attacked Captain America in his own apartment before disappearing which lead to the events that they were facing now. With Nightshade off planet and somewhere in the universe with a Dalek and the Doctor and Edward in Japan chasing up leads of Leatherback there was no one that Julian could call for backup against Set. He knew he could fight him off if he allowed the Wolf full control, but he had not allowed that to happen in years. He did not want to lose control like he had when he had first transformed a hundred years ago before he became a Shadow Man after he had been shot by a German solider in the trenches. It had taken both Nightshade and Edward a full night to take him down and calm him down. After that he had started to train to take control the beast that was hidden deep under his skin.

"Seth! Where have you been hiding?" Julian asked as he glared at Seth. He wasn't scared to stand against the God of Chaos from Ancient Egyptian legends. He knew that it would take a lot of Seth's powers to destroy him. He was after all two supernatural creatures. He was a Werewolf and a Shadow Man, a much scarier version of ghost and was almost poltergeist like in his fighting tactics.

The God of Chaos smirked as he slowly walked towards Julian. "It doesn't matter. All of my planning is slowly coming together and you are in my way!" Set snapped as he slowly approached the trap Julian. Julian wriggled in the Anubid's grip but it was not letting go. "I wish I could say that its not personal but I would be lying!" he said to Julian as he lowered himself closer Julian's face. "And I have to thank you for leading me to the only human who can give me an advantage against you and your Shadow Network!" he said a little louder so that the two Hunters could hear what he was saying.

"What? Shadow Network?" Dean shouted causing Julian to turn his head as best as he could to view the older Winchester brother. "Tell me that is some cool spy network Julian!" he said looking directly at Julian.

"Julian what's going on?" Sam asked which caused Julian to then turn his attention to the younger Winchester brother.

Julian sighed deeply as he looked back towards Seth who bore a smug look on his face. A look that Julian knew that he was about to cause chaos. Chaos that would allow him to get away. He could not allow Seth to get away. He had escaped from UNIT to disappear only to appear here with Dracula. The vampire that had been the Argentix's and Howling Commandos ally during the Second World War. Now he was standing alongside Seth. He would need to update Nightshade about this development.

"Yes Julian! Tell them! Tell them who and what you are!" Seth smirked leaning in closer to Julian once again. "Or better yet show them! I can see that it's getting harder for the doors to remain closed behind that calm soldier exterior!" he smirked as he slowly pulled away from Julian.

"Remember our Deal, Seth! The boy for Halloween!" the bag snapped as it finally drew itself attention. Julian felt his stomach dropping as he saw Norman in his grasp. He moved his head to see his car was surrounded by vampires. The passenger side door was wide open which had allowed the bag of bugs to take the boy or the boy had left the safety of his car. He knew that the car had deadlocks and other forms of locks.

"Of course! Dracula help Oggie Boogie in taken Halloween Town! I think I will leave-" Seth didn't get a change to finish as the Anubid came crashing on top of him. He snarled and tried to get the dead weight off of him but the sudden increase of weight forced him to stop. He glared up with yellow eyes to come face to face with the fully transformed Shadow Wolf.
