Ryu- I couldn't do the update quickly because yesterday, I had received two shots and they pricked my finger, which hurt. So yea. On with the update.
The Ritual
Enzan and Laika had been following the clone for some time now, when they spotted a cave, and with it's order being fulfilled, the clone disappeared leaving only the hair.
"Okay, so we found the cave, what do we do now?" Enzan asked. "Well, I have an idea." Laika said as he picked up the hair that the clone had left. "Werewolves are good at shape shifting." Laika said.
"Yeah, I know tha- Oh." Enzan said. Then Laika muttered some words and his form changed to that of the creature they had faced.
"But what's with the hair?" Enzan asked. "It's so that the master of that creature won't get suspicious." Laika said.
"Okay." Enzan said as he nodded. Then Laika walked into the cave with Enzan clinging on and hiding himself in the illusionary fur.
When they had entered the cave, they were surprised to see more of that creature, but they were relieved when they saw Netto.
But they could not stop because they had to keep walking. They kept walking until they reached a place where the other creatures dared not to step.
Before they could not ponder anymore when they heard a voice.
"Have you eliminated those brats." The voice said. Laika nodded. "Good, then all will be well." The voice continued, and soon they saw the owner of the voice walk out of the shadows.
The figure had dark black hair. Looked to be in his late twenties, but what was more intriguing was that the figure had one glass eye.
Laika was surprised, he knew this man, well, he had heard of him. This man was named Regal, the exiled werewolf. Well, now it seemed he was no longer the werewolf. (1)
"Finally, since there are no longer heirs to the thrones, then I can take my stand as rightful king of all the land." Regal said.
Enzan couldn't see what was happening leas he blow his cover, but he could hear everything. This was treason, and treason is dealt with death.
Then Regal suddenly began to walk toward Netto. Hana had to walk away if she didn't want to be punished.
"Ah, my queen has awoken." Regal said as he stood before Netto. (2) Enzan and Laika almost gagged.
Netto looked at Regal with a defiant look. "Hm, rebellious I see. Well, we'll have to change that." Regal said as he suddenly hit Netto in the jaw and sent him across the floor. Laika wanted to run up to Netto and protect him, but he knew he couldn't.
Netto got up and rubbed his jaw. Then he turned back to Regal with the same look.
"Heh, I see you have quite a strong will, but it will be broken in no time. Just like all the others in here." Regal said as he charged Netto and then proceeded to punch and kick Netto.
All the while, Enzan could hear. He knew what was happening because he had heard it before. Netto was getting beaten, and Enzan could no longer take it anymore.
Enzan let go of Laika and then flew toward Regal. Regal hearing a screech, he turned around only to get kicked in the face and sent flying. Laika, knowing his cover had been blown because Enzan was seen flying off of him, turned back to his 'human' form and ran up to Enzan and Netto.
Laika scowled at the damage done, but could do no more as Regal recovered.
"Hm, it seems like I underestimated you two. No matter." Regal said as he turned to the other creatures.
"Now is the time to show me that you are loyal. Attack and capture them and you will gain my trust." Regal said.
The creatures didn't move, they had seen and heard everything before and now. They knew that they shouldn't listen to Regal, and that Netto was a more worthy master.
"What, you are all traitors." Regal said, and just then, Sendo suddenly appeared and tackled Enzan. Everyone was surprised that Sendo had appeared.
"Ah, at least I still have someone I can trust." Regal said.
And soon Enzan and Laika were fighting off Sendo. The other creatures wanted to help, but Regal was just too powerful for them to fight.
And through all the chaos, Regal managed to sneak behind Netto and knock him unconscious. Then he picked Netto up and ran outside. Both Laika and Enzan saw this. They tried to get outside, but Sendo blocked their way.
"Argh, were getting no where. How are we supposed to get to Netto." Laika said in frustration. "The only way, is to kill this thing." Enzan said, and both of them fell silent. They hated killing, but this was the only solution.
So the two changed into their full fledged forms. Laika, the mighty werewolf, and Enzan, the fearsome vampire.
The fight soon took a sudden turn. Both of them had used their gained claws and began ripping at Sendo.
In the end, Sendo was left breathing his last breaths, and everyone had run out the cave entrance. Though, Sendo was not dead yet. He got up and walked out the cave entrance as well.
When everyone had gone outside, they saw that the moon had risen, and Regal was standing in the middle of an incantation circle with a waking Netto in his arms.
"Oh god. You're here to see me rise to a new power." Regal said. "Not a chance." Laika said as he charged, but he was stopped by a barrier.
"No, no. I don't want you to interfere." Regal said. Then he turned around and began to chant. Everyone was trying to break through, but they couldn't.
During this time, Netto had woken up, but he couldn't get away. It was then that Regal had finished his chanting.
"Since you won't be my queen, I guess I'll have to use you." Regal said as he started to grow large fangs and claws.
Netto saw this and went wide eyed. He then began to struggle more, but Regal was getting more strength with his change.
When his change was over, Regal was in his full fledged form. Then Regal suddenly bit down between Netto's neck and shoulder and began to chew and suck the blood and flesh.
All the while, Netto screamed in pain and agony. Enzan and Laika too shocked to move.
Soon, Regal was finished, and Netto went limp. "Hm, your blood probably tastes much better than Sendo's. I'm glad I used you instead." Regal said.
And everyone was shocked that Regal had wanted to use his own trusted Familiar. Then everyone turned because they heard growling. It was Sendo.
"Oh, you haven't died yet, Sendo. No hard feelings, right?" Regal said with a smirk.
Sendo replied by suddenly chanting. The others also began to chant. When they were done, the barrier and circle was destroyed.
"What, no!" Regal yelled. At this, everyone charged. Regal took flight, but the ones that could fly took pursuit, and soon, Regal was trapped.
"Wait, I'm more powerful than all you mutts. I don't need to run." Regal said as he was readying to attack.
No, you can't beat us. We can use the Sun. Sendo said in his tongue.
"What. That won't be-" Regal said before he was cut off.
You just drank blood, and that makes the balance corrupted. You are now more Vampire. Scar said.
So the all began to chant again, and Regal was horrified. There was no where to go and Soon the Sun appeared.
Enzan had turned into a bat and hid in Laika's jacket. Any other vampire had just run inside.
Soon, Regal was fell out of the sky, burnt to a crisp, but they had no time to celebrate. They hurriedly ran back to Netto, who was limp and cold on the ground.
-TBC-
