Chapter 5- At the Archives

Blade stopped the car near a club where Krieger had stopped and as they got out he said. "Looks like we hit pay dirt."

Pointing at a mark in the corner he said. "That's a vampire mark. It means that there's a safe house around here somewhere- a place they can go with donors coming."

He then pointed at some valets and said. "See the valets over there? They're vampires. So is the doorman and the whore on the corner."

"They have no heartbeats and smell like rotting corpses", Matt said in agreement as he used his senses.

"Creepy. Very creepy", Elektra muttered.

"Psst", Blade said as he took out the ultraviolet device and handed it to Karen.

"It's like a bad dream", she said as she took it.

"There are worse things out tonight than vampires", Blade said.

"Like what?" Karen asked.

"I think I know the answer", Matt smirked.

"Like me", Blade said as they moved towards the club.

"OK, Vampire Anatomy 101. Crosses and holy water don't do dick, so forget what you've seen in the movies", Blade explained to them all. "You use a stake, silver, or sun light."

He gave her a gun and asked. "You know how to use one of these?"

"Nope...but I'll damn sure learn quick", she said as she took it.

"The safety's off", Matt said as he sensed it.

"Rounds already chambered- silver hollow point filled with garlic", Blade said. "You aim for the head or the heart."

"Anything else is your ass", Elektra finished for him.

They stopped in front of the doorman who said something in Japanese before asking. "Do you have an invitation?" He then said something in Japanese again.

Blade took off his shades and exchanged amused looks with Matt and Elektra, all three of them smirking.

Few seconds later

The doors shattered as the doorman fell inside and his back hit the wall before he lost consciousness.

Men were sitting around there, watching three women on the stage rapping in Japanese. Blade, Matt, Elektra and Karen marched in and were shot glares.

A guard tried to stop Blade but Blade twisted his hand and punched him in the abdomen, knocking him out.

Then Matt heard Krieger's heartbeat and said. "In front of us."

Blade looked to his front to see Krieger backing off in fear as Matt grabbed another man and slammed his head to the pillar, knocking him out.

"Kenji!" He screamed in horror as he started running away while Elektra cut off another man's gun with her sword before kicking his throat in a rotatory motion, knocking him out.

The bartender who was called Kenji took out his shotgun but Blade leapt on the bar, trapping the gun under his foot, before using it to kick Kenji out.

The three then jumped on the other side of the bar as Matt punched Krieger, breaking his nose while Blade grabbed him and shoved him further into the kitchen, dropping utensils as the chef ran off in fear.

Pinning Krieger to a wall, Blade asked. "Where's the entrance?"

"I can't tell you that, man", Krieger said, only for Blade to shove him away as Elektra kicked his face, sending him down before Blade picked him up again. "I'm going to ask you one more time. Where's the entrance?"

"OK. OK", Krieger said as he panted before pointing at the freezer. "It's in the freezer."

Blade looked between the freezer and Krieger incredulously before kneeing Krieger's back, making him scream in pain, and then punched his abdomen, making him double down as Blade threw him off.

"Wait!" Matt said as Blade stopped. "He's telling the truth. And there is something down there. I can feel it. Something is going on."

Blade still grabbed Krieger and then opened the freezer, to see some stairs leading to the bottom.

"Well, that's a new one", Elektra quipped as Blade said to Krieger. "You give Frost a message from me. You tell him it's open season on suckheads."

He then tapped Krieger on the forehead and pushed him back. He ran off in fear, passing Karen who entered and looked at the mess in the kitchen before looking at them both.

"Found the entrance", Matt said as they walked towards the stairs.

They found an elevator and went into it. It brought them down and opened up again, allowing them to walk further.

They saw narrow, maze-like stacks of vampire archives and started weaving their way through shelves of climate-controlled digitized records.

"Some kind of archive", Blade said. "This must be where they keep most of their records."

"Isn't this just a little high-tech?" Karen asked.

"Yeah, I was expecting an old dusty library with a grumpy old lady as the keeper", Elektra said.

"I don't think it's like the movies", Matt said and both chuckled.

"They've got their claws into everything- politics, finance, real estate", Blade said. "They already own half of downtown."

"Worse than even Fisk was", Matt muttered.

At another nightclub of Frost, Krieger was trying to tell him about his encounter with Blade, Matt and Elektra.

"I didn't know they were going to be there", he was saying. "It was a trap, see? But don't worry about it. It's no problem. We can still get the girl."

Frost suddenly grabbed him and bit him on the neck hard, ripping out the skin as blood poured from Krieger's mouth.

"Yeah!" A young vampire called Edgar laughed. "Whoo!"

Frost drank Krieger's blood and then turning around, kissed his girlfriend called Mercury, who licked Krieger's blood off his lips as both laughed. The two then ate bits of Krieger's skin together before throwing the dying familiar into the pool where the rubber duck squeezed.

"Forget the girl. I want Blade", Frost said.

"I know you do", Mercury nodded.

"You hear me, Edgar?" Blade said as he turned to Edgar. "I want him alive."

"What? Wait a minute, man", Edgar laughed nervously as he followed Frost. "You want him alive?"

"What's that smell?" Karen wondered as they walked deeper.

"It is too bad", Matt said in disgust as he covered his nose and face. "I can't take it."

"All right", Blade said he pointed to a far corner. "Wait there."

Matt nodded and walked off as the other three continued inwards, hearing a high-pitched voice saying. "...image carefully, Frost. You will need 12 purebloods to make the ritual work."

The voice's owner heard them coming and asked. "Krieger, is that you?"

They walked in to see a very giant, obese and disgusting vampire sitting in between several monitors and computers. Seeing them, he yelled in fear. "They-they're here! They're here!"

"This must be Pearl, the record keeper", Blade said to the two women when loud flatulence was heard and they all knew who had done it. They heard Matt groaning loudly from the corner.

"They're going to kill me!" Pearl yelled in fear to one of the monitors. "You need me, Frost! You need me!"

"Pearl, you're history", Frost's voice came from that monitor. "Have the good grace to die with some fuckin' dignity."

Blade picked up the monitor and turned it towards himself, facing Frost now. "Frost."

"Congratulations Blade", Frost mocked on seeing his nemesis at last. "I hear you've been lookin' for me. I'm flattered."

"It'll pass", Blade said.

"Fuck", Frost said before cutting the call while Pearl moaned.

Karen then held up the UV lamp as Pearl asked. "What is that?"

"That, biscuitboy, is a U.V. lamp", Blade said.

"We're gonna play a little game of 20 questions", Elektra told him.

"Depending on how you answer, you may walk out of here with a tan", Blade said before pointing to a screen which had models of people standing in several positions under some kind of structure. "What's that?"

"Oh, that? Oh, it's nothing. It's routine research. Heh heh", Pearl lied as Blade and Elektra exchanged an annoyed look. "Actually, it's a video game."

Karen switched on the UV lamp and Pearl let out a high-pitched scream as he was burnt badly until Karen shut it off.

"That looks like it hurt a lot", Elektra said.

"It's a fragment, a piece of the prophecy!" Pearl cried out.

"What prophecy?" Blade asked.

"Oh, I'm not really sure. There are so many out—"

Karen turned on the lamp again and Pearl let out another high-pitched scream, being burnt even more before Karen shut it off.

Pearl said something in the Slavic tongue which only Blade understood before he said in English. "And there is nothing you can do about it, Daywalker!"

"Is that so?" Blade asked.

"Well, that's what Frost says", Pearl said lamely.

"Then you won'tmind me borrowing this for a while, will you?" Blade asked as he took out the disk and walked to a rig door. "Daredevil!"

Matt followed after him there as Blade sized the rig door and started putting explosive gel around it. "If he moves, fry him."

"What's in here?" Matt asked Pearl

"Nothing. It's a-a storeroom", Pearl lied. "You're wasting your time. There's nothing of importance to anyone."

"Then you won't mind if I take a peek", Blade said as he finished putting the explosive gel.

Pearl tried to move but Karen switched on the UV light and didn't shut it off as Pearl screamed in pain and horror, his flesh bubbling and sizzling. "NOOOOOOOOO!"

Karen then shut it off and now the entire upper half of Pearl's body was badly burnt.

"He moved", Karen said without mercy.

"I can see that", Elektra sighed.

The gel made the door explode and the four walked in to see fragments of pages hanging around.

"What is this?" Karen asked.

"These are the pages from The Book of Erebus, the Vampire Bible", Blade explained.

"So Vampires have one too? Wow!" Matt muttered.

"It contains everything...their entire history", Blade said. "La Magra must be one of their Legends."

"Why is Frost so interested in La Magra?" Elektra asked when Matt shushed her as both him and Blade heard rushed footsteps.

The three walked around before finding a young woman curled up in a corner. Holding out his hand, Blade said. "Give me your hand."

"Do you remember me?"

They whirled around as Edgar, Mercury and several other Vampires walked in, now holding Karen hostage. Mercury laughed and threw down the UV lamp, breaking it.

"Give it to them!" Edgar yelled as the woman suddenly kicked Matt away through some glass and tried to kick Blade several times. He backed, blocking all her kicks before Elektra blocked the last one and he smacked her face, sending her down.

Another attacked but Blade grabbed his arm and flipped him, shattering him through more glass. Another leapt at him but he dodged in a rotatory motion as Matt got up and punched another away.

Elektra then engaged the one who had leapt at Blade and knocked him down while Blade grabbed another man and slammed him into glass, shattering it.

Another man engaged Blade and smacked him away when Matt kicked him away but another man then kicked Matt down as the previous one kicked Blade to a pillar while Mercury smacked Elektra from behind, sending her to the ground.

The Vampires all restrained Blade as one of them called Crease took his sword while Edgar taunted Blade. "Well, well, well. You can slice him, you can dice him, but the Edgar man just keeps on comin'!"

"Check it out", Crease said as he held Blade's sword. "I've got his pigsticker. Ah ha ha ha—"

The rotating hilt stopped and spikes burst out, making his hand explode as he screamed in pain. "OHHHH! AAAAHHHHH!"

"You're a fuckup, Crease!" Edgar said as Matt and Elektra had disgust on their faces due to Crease sticking his tongue out. "Ha ha ha ha! You're afuckup! "I got his pigsticker!""

He turned to Blade and said. "Ohh. You're just full of surprises, ain't you, chief?"

He kicked Matt away before punching Blade several times on the chest and once on the face, making him spit out blood as Edgar said. "Stay with me, sweetness...'cause I'm not finished with you yet."

He then took out a silver stake from Blade's arsenal and said. "Ah, looky here. Silver. Nice craftsmanship, huh? Probably cost you a pretty penny."

Pointing at the Blade, Matt and Elektra he said. "Now, these here are people who take their job..."

He turned to Karen. "Just a Little too seriously, don't you think?"

He turned to Blade and said. "Come to think of it, Blade, I owe you one."

He stabbed Blade in the shoulder with the stake, making him cry out in pain. "Actually, if you want to get technical, Blade...I owe you two."

Blade started laughing suddenly as Edgar asked. "Oh, what's so funny, bright eyes?"

"I'm expecting company", Blade said and laughed again before turning his head to reveal an earpiece in his ear.

"Now you better run", Matt said as he got up.

Then the glass shattered as they all started running away. Whistler stood at the entrance, holding a machine gun.

"Catch you fuckers at a bad time?" He asked mockingly before firing again, making them run off as Elektra punched Mercury out and they all picked up their weapons.

They ran as the Vampires fired at them.

"No! No guns! No! No! No!" Edgar yelled. "Drop the guns! I need him! He wants Blade alive! Go!"

They ran after the five as Whistler threw a case at Edgar, making him stumble before he ran again. The case was a time-bomb.

Karen asked Whistler. "You've been listening in the whole time?"

"Keeping radio contact", Whistler said. "Think I'd let him run loose without a chaperon?

"It was a smart move", Elektra said as they hid on opposite sides of the tunnel.

A train passed as Whistler complained. "Christ! I'm too old for this. Somebody get me a god-damn wheelchair."

Then the bomb exploded, knocking down the Vampires inside.

As the train started passing, Whistler jumped into it.

"Whistler!" Karen called out.

"He can take care of himself", Matt said as the train passed. "Jump!"

Karen jumped and fell onto the rail as another train's horn blew.

Edgar arrived with other Vampires as Matt, Blade and Elektra jumped onto the other side and started helping Karen up.

Edgar and the others leapt just as the train arrived and everyone except Edgar were hit. Edgar leapt to the other side and tried to push Blade off but Elektra grabbed him and they struggled while Matt kicked his face.

Blade pulled up Karen and brandishing his sword, cut off Edgar's hand. Edgar screamed in pain and ran off as Mercury and other Vampires arrived to fight.

"What are you gonna do?" Karen asked.

"I think I know", Elektra said.

"Risky but the only play we have", Matt said.

"Oh, my God!" Karen gasped as she realized what it was.

As the train passed, Blade grabbed its behind while holding Karen and Elektra did the same while holding Matt.

They opened it up and went inside as it passed all the Vampires.

Blade then groaned as Karen asked. "What's wrong?"

"It's dislocated", Blade said as he held his arm. Matt twisted it, putting it back into place. "Ah!"

Blade then took out a needle as Karen offered. "Let me give you—"

"No! Get away", Blade said as he walked to a corner and injected the needle into his neck before sighing in relief.

"You're one of them, aren't you?" Karen asked in realization.

"No", Blade said. "I'm something else."

And done.

Now only about one more hour of this movie left to cover.
