Legacy of Travas

Chapter 14: An Unexpected Confrontation

Amongst the cold night within Nosgoth, a vampuric figure walks along a dark path that leads towards the abandoned Avernus Cathedral. He walks inside and begins to examine the interior of it as well as his surroundings. But up ahead, he sees a mysterious hooded human sitting upon the front row and heads towards the man.

"You there, stranger, I acquire information from you at once", the vampire spoke as the human turned to face him.

"Who are you, and what information do you seek, mysterious one", the Mysterious Hooded Human asked as he looked upon the vampire curiously.

"I am Kain, and I come here to seek information regarding a new vampire who has come upon this land several months ago. I have heard rumors that he was that of a fox with human-like qualities, though I have not discovered this for myself… do you know what his name may be", Kain asked as the human recognized the description he had given him.

"Of course, I know of the man you speak of. I believe that he goes by the name of Travas Starfox, sir", the Mysterious Hooded Human answered while Kain had listened to him carefully.

"I see… I have heard that name before… and I have also heard tales concerning two demons being killed by the hands of this mysterious being. The first was known to be Adrian the Sun Demon… and the second was that of Alastair Ballantine, the water demon who reclaimed and haunted the Lake of Serenity in these recent times. Do you happen to know any information concerning them at all", Kain asked once more as the human began to recognize those tales.

"Indeed I do, sir…" the Mysterious Hooded Human answered. "From the tales I have heard about them is that they have been terrorizing Nosgoth in these recent times. The fox-man who had come here from another world had assassinated these demons over a period of about five to six months' time, with Alastair and his assassins being the most recent of them all", he explained as Kain nodded in response, but then raises his right hand up a bit towards the hooded man.

"Very well then, I have heard enough about this mysterious vampire. I thank you for allowing me to acquire this information from you. Now then, I wish you a good night", Kain said as he walks towards the Cathedral doors and heads out into the night skies once again. "I now know enough about this mysterious being… however; it is time that I meet this fox-man in person and see his strength for myself", he continued thinking in his mind as he made his way to wherever the darkness leads him towards in Nosgoth.

*Within the Vampire Citadel, early sunrise*

As the dawn began to slowly shine among the land of Nosgoth, a vampuric couple continues to rest together while holding each other in their arms. Travas had slightly awoken from his slumber and gently begins massaging the lower part of Umah's back with his right index finger. In response, Umah slightly shifts her head comfortingly around his chest while softly smiling in her sleep, thus making Travas look upon her as he smiled.

"I have to admit… Umah actually looks peaceful and cute when she sleeps", Travas thought within his mind as he began to carefully place Umah's head on a pillow and gets out of bed. Then he sniffs himself and smells a horrific stench on his vampuric body. "Now that I think about it, I haven't had the chance to take a shower ever since I was brought back as a vampire, even though I cleaned myself with the elixir constantly. But that isn't working due to a low supply and of its limitations on how often I could use it", he continued speaking within his mind as he headed to one of his bags containing his stuff inside.

As he entered the bathroom, he begins to examine the shower inside as well as the sink. But then he remembers something within his vampuric nature that caused him to sigh in frustration.

"Damnit… there's no possibility for me taking a shower unless I had some elixir to clean myself with", Travas spoke within his mind as he let out a sigh in defeat… until he also remembered something else. "Wait a second… I've assassinated Alastair and acquired some sort of essence from him after he died. It's a lot similar to that when I discovered that I could be in sunlight after killing Adrian the Sun Demon. It may be possible that I could also get in water as well", he continued as he decides if whether or not he should test his theory to ensure it.

After about half a minute of thinking, he turns the knob on the shower that begins dispersing water out of it and places his hands over it… and to his luck; his theory has proven to be true as he smiled softly in satisfaction.

"Alright, it seems that it has proven to be true… looks like I may have myself a good shower after all", Travas said to himself as he turned on the hot water inside while placing his body wash and other materials inside. He then enters and begins to bath in the showering luxury he hasn't had ever since he had died on Alopex and been resurrected as a living vampire.

About a few minutes later, Umah begins to awaken from her slumber and noticed that Travas was not there on the bed next to her. However, she had heard water sizzling sounds in the bathroom as she was putting her clothes back on. Once she finished getting dressed, she began to examine that the shower had been dispensing hot water on Travas and gasped in shock as he looked outside.

"Umah, is something wrong", Travas asked worriedly as Umah looked upon him in shock.

"Travas… you're nourishing yourself in water. How is it that your furred flesh is not being burned by the acidic touch of water", Umah asked in a shocked manner as Travas finished rinsing off and turns the shower off. Then he wraps a towel around his waist in a low-rise manner and steps out on a towel he placed on the ground.

"I can assume that I acquired Alastair's ability to be in water. It kind of like the same thing with Adrian after I killed him and obtained his ability to be in sunlight", Travas explained as Umah's expression softened and became intrigued by his newfound ability.

"I see… this may come in handy when it comes to getting towards places that we vampires cannot", Umah said as she smiled upon him as he did to her.

"They could", Travas replied while smirking upon Umah, causing her to blush and giggle in delight.

"I'll see you within the heart of the Main Chambers, stud", Umah said with a slight touch of seductiveness in her tone, winking at him before heading towards the Main Chambers to meet up with some of the other vampires.

At this time, Travas himself began to get dressed, getting into a pair of black skintight leather pants, a black tank top, his "Motorhead 'Overkill'" sleeveless shirt, a pair of long gray socks underneath, and his black leather motorcycle fingerless gloves. Once he's dressed, he begins to head for the Main Chambers to meet up with his new girlfriend, Umah.

*Within the Main Chambers*

After Travas got dressed and began walking towards the Main Chambers, Umah and Janos were talking about Travas' newfound ability to being in water. As a response, Janos had looked upon her in slight shock about the news.

"Are you telling me that Travas now has the ability to be inside water without being affected by its acidic touch", Janos asked as Umah nodded.

"That is correct, Janos, and he had acquired this ability after he had killed Alastair Ballantine. And because of his new ability, we may have another advantage when it comes to searching for other demons poisoning the land of Nosgoth in watery areas Travas could venture upon that we could not", Umah explained.

"Perhaps this may explain how he has managed to survive without the waters of the Lake of Serenity burning his body", Janos said as Umah nodded in agreement.

"This certainly does… it is also similar to that of when he had assassinated Adrian and acquired the ability to be in sunlight while enhancing his fire capabilities at the same-"Umah spoke until she felt Travas wrap his arms around her waist, causing her to squeal while the vulpin held onto her close to him and moving in a slow side to side motion.

"So how is my sexy vampire been doing on this wonderful morning", Travas spoke while he kissed her neck playfully, causing Umah to giggle as he continued to shift her in a side-to-side motion.

"Travas…!" Umah said somewhat embarrassingly, yet lovingly as she wraps her left arm behind his neck and kissed his lips. In that moment, Janos notices their and smiles

"I can assume that love blossoming from within the two of you", Janos assumed as he softly smiles upon them both while they blushed heavily.

"Um…" both Umah and Travas said in unison as they looked upon each other shy fully as Celestia enters and looks upon them.

"Aw… there is love brewing between the two" Celestia said as she smiles upon them happily, causing them to blush harder than they once did. "This is just too cute", she continued while looking upon Janos.

"That has, indeed, been proven. However we must save this tale for another time. Travas, Umah has told me that you have acquired some sort of ability to be in water without being harmed by its acidic touch. Is this true", Janos asked as Celestia looked upon him with curiosity.

"That actually is true", Travas confirmed as Janos and Celestia's eyes shot open, causing the vulpin to smirk in response. "In fact, I just got out of the shower with hot water just a few minutes ago", he continued as Janos and Celestia slightly backed away in shock. But within a few seconds upon hearing the news, Janos began to smirk upon his newfound ability.

"Excellent, this will give the Vampire Resistance a higher advantage since you can go to places that we cannot", Janos explained as Travas looked upon him with the same idea in mind.

"That's very true indeed, Janos", Travas replied before turning to face Umah, who is being held in his arms. "Speaking of going to places, Umah, are you interested in exploring around Nosgoth on the motorcycle… and possibly eat at a few places for breakfast or lunch", he asked as Umah blushed upon the question he asked.

"Ummm…" Umah tried to answer, but instead turned to see Janos, upon which he nodded in an approving manner. "I would love to, Travas. And I also have something for you. I will also change into something more appropriate for this occasion. Wait here and I will return shortly", she said while she made her way towards her room.

Once she got to her room, Umah had changed into a black spaghetti tank top with a pair of sanded-blue jean distressed short shorts. Then she put on her usual metallic boots to go with her outfit. However, she chooses to keep her hair not tied back as she arranged her bangs to shift towards the right. Finally she makes her way back into the main chambers with Travas' boots she got for him a few days ago.

After a few minutes pass by, Umah comes out with a pair of knee-high metal boots in her hands. These boots contained a black and silver design with spike-shaped straps on the sides. They had also contained gold colored spikes upon the silver colored ankle straps on them with the foot's heel being black.

"Umah, two things I have to say. One thing is that you are looking gorgeous. The second thing is that these boots are nice", Travas said as he accepted them from Umah and put them on over his leather pants. "Thank you so much for getting them, gorgeous", he continued while thanking her by kissing her lips.

"With pleasure, Travas… I felt like I had to get you something", Umah said shy fully while blushing.

"You didn't have to get me anything… but thanks again" Travas replied while kissing her forehead. "Anyways, shall we head out", he asked while looking into her eyes.

"Of course", Umah replied as they began walking towards the underground chamber.

"You two take the upmost of care and drive safely, do you both understand", Janos said as Umah and Travas looked upon him.

"We will", Both Umah and Travas simultaneously said as they continued their way towards the underground chamber as Travas wraps his arm around his girlfriend's waist. Thus, they embark on their first date as a couple.

*Somewhere near the southern section of Nosgoth*

As the day continued to progress within Nosgoth, a small group of thieves continue to escape from some mysterious being that continued to chase them within a forest near the Great Southern Lake. However, the mysterious creature continued to kill the thieves one by one until there were only two thieves left standing. They arrive upon the Great Southern Lake only to have the mysterious creature come upon them within mere feet from his position.

"What… what the hell are you, you vile demon!" The First Thief spoke as he readied his arms for battle.

"I am called many things", the demon spoke. "But in your case, just call me your assassin, you wretched thieves", he continued while he readied his claws for the kill. But despite the demon's battle preparations, the Second Thief began to chuckle while looking towards the demon himself.

"We'll see about that, demon… now prepare to die", the Second Thief shouted as he pulls out his sword and began to clash against the demon with the First Thief.

As the fight continued to progress, another unknown figure arrives at the lake and hide amongst the trees, watching the fight from the branches above. While the mysterious being watched, he notices the demon beginning to have the upper hand upon short notice. Soon enough, the thieves lay upon the ground injured as the demon came towards the First one and stabbed him in the heart, killing him instantly. The Second Thief tried to get up and escape, but within a few seconds later, he himself had met his end by the demon beheading him with his sword. As a result, the demon began to grin in delight upon killing his prey.

"Excellent, I don't just have enough for breakfast, but I also have some extra to eat for lunch. Talk about a luxurious bonus", the demon said as he examined the bodies, seeing bags of gold and other jewelry in response. "Because of this, I even get some extra treasure to go with my riches. Talk about an excellent way of obtaining my tax return", he continued to speak as he dragged the bodies with him into the Great Southern Lake. But as he was making his way towards the lake, a mysterious figure appeared behind him and began to approach the demon.

"Ah yes… I can assume that you must be the demon that has been stalking among the corridors of the Great Southern Lake and killing his prey like a simple cat-mouse chase", the mysterious being said as the demon turned to face him. "How ironic that his next prey turns to confront him within his own territorial sanctuary", he continued as the demon looked upon him with recognition.

"Ah yes, and I assume that you must be Kain. I have heard tales about you and your ambition to take over the land of Nosgoth… and this, I am honored to meet and engage in battle with you", the demon said as he drew his butcher-like sword out of its sheath.

"Spare me your false courtesies, young demon! I have no need for them for you know the reason why I bestow upon you at this very hour", Kain shot back as he drew his sword from his back, from which it is built with a wavy blade constructed with a vampuric skull hilt and metal insect-like shoulders, containing two attached on each side of the skull.

"So the warrior draws out his infamous blade, the Soul Reaver, the ancient weapon of the Ancient Vampire race", the demon spoke while preparing to attack. "This shall also make a wonderful addition to my collection once I take it from you after I rip out your heart from your vile carcass", he continued as he began to sprint towards Kain.

"We shall see about that, demon", Kain spoke as he also began to sprint towards the demon, readying his blade as the two begin to engage in battle for ownership of the Soul Reaver.

*Somewhere within Vasserbunde*

While a battle progresses within the Great Southern Lake, Travas and Umah arrive upon an outdoor diner within Vasserbunde to acquire food for the both of them. Travas parks the motorcycle as he and Umah step off of it and head towards the outdoor restaurant, "The Vasserbunde Shack". After finding a table, Travas goes up to the register and orders a few pancake platters for him and Umah to eat for breakfast.

After about five minutes of waiting at the register, Travas acquires his and Umah's breakfast items while paying for them and heading back to the table. With this, the two begin to eat their breakfast as they enjoy the morning view at the diner.

"To be honest, Umah, I've always thought that vampires have only obtained their nutrition from feeding on blood. But it's interesting to see that they can also have other food items other than blood to meet their needs", Travas said while Umah was eating and listening to him after swallowing her food.

"Even though blood is a necessity for a vampire to survive, it is also required for them to feed amongst other food sources from time to time in order to obtain the nutrition they need to retain their physical strength", Umah explained as Travas smiled upon her intriguingly. "Though in your case, you must acquire food like a normal being since you are in fact among the living" she continued as Travas nodded in response.

"I see… very interesting indeed", Travas replied as he finished off his food and his French vanilla/caramel macchiato flavored coffee. With their meals finished the vampire couple head towards the motorcycle and drive off upon the southern part of Nosgoth.

*Upon the Great Southern Lake*

After a fierce, yet short battle has concluded, Kain is declared the victor and beheads the demon as his prized trophy while drinking upon his blood. He places the head inside a wool cloth bag and begins to make his way towards the Pillars of Nosgoth. But before he was able to make it any further, he begins to sense two vampuric energy signals coming from the north. As a response, he makes his way towards the north-western direction while remaining in the woods to investigate the identities of these two vampires.

After about ten minutes of traveling towards the north-west, Kain hides among the trees and looks upon the two vampires, who have parked the motorcycle upon the side of the road, which lead to the shore of the Nactholm Cove. Upon arrival, his eyes finally look upon the vampire who was that of a fox with human characteristics for the first time.

"It's strange… I have heard tales about these creatures, but I have never encountered them before until this moment. I believe that Nosgoth's people have dubbed them 'anthromorphics' if I'm not mistaken", Kain thought within his mind as he saw the mysterious fox-man. Then he recognized who he was. "Of course… so this is the one who they call 'Travas'… but who is the other vampire he is with… she seems to contain a familiar essence within her. But that is another investigation to be saved for another time, for I must make haste towards the Pillars at once", he continued thinking as he began to make his way towards the Pillars of Nosgoth south-east from his direction.

*On the side of the road near the Nactholm Cove*

After Kain has left the scene, Travas and Umah continue to talk and listen to tunes on the motorcycle radio. Then, the Motorhead song "The Chase is better than the Catch" begins to play as they continue to chat with each other.

"Tell me, Travas… is this kind of heavy music played where you were from", Umah asked curiously while smiling softly.

"Not everyone played heavy metal music, but a lot of people did… especially when it comes to speed metal bands such as Motorhead", Travas answered, head banging to the rhythm of the music, allowing his slightly longer bangs to move about as the female vampire began to giggle as a response.

"I must admit, Travas that this music has proven to be both energetic… and arousing at the same time", Umah admitted while smirking seductively and stroking upon his muscular torso.

"Then it looks like I may have to play this type of music for you more often, babe", Travas said while smirking in delight upon Umah's seductive approach.

"Perhaps you should, handsome, but the vampire's catch can be better than the chase", Umah replied seductively.

"Perhaps, but as the song says, 'The Chase is better than the Catch'", Travas spoke seductively and flirtatiously as Umah wrapped her arms around his neck and giggles in response.

"That's true, indeed, handsome", Umah seductively spoke as she plants a kiss upon Travas' muzzle, causing the two to begin passionately kissing.

Sometime after the two began kissing each other passionately, Umah begins to use her hands to eagerly rub his chest and abs before slowly taking off his sleeveless shirt and tank top. In a similar manner, Travas began to move his hand-paws from her cheeks and down her body until they have met with the softness of her firm butt, causing Umah to giggle in delight. This act would shortly cause them to begin French-kissing one another as Travas began to give Umah's firm butt a nice squeeze, making her giggle in satisfaction once more.

As the two deepen the French-kiss, Umah moves her left hand downward until she places it inside her boyfriend's skintight leather pants, rubbing his hardening bulge within. Likewise, Travas moves his left hand-paw from her butt towards her well-endowed breasts and caresses them gently. Then he moves his right hand-paw from her firm buns until he places it inside Umah's blue jean distressed short shorts and begins to rub upon her wet lower lips inside. As a response, Umah begins to moan in satisfaction as she began to undo his leather pants with Travas doing the same with her Short shorts.

On the moment that Travas' leather pants were undone like Umah's short shorts are, Umah began to make her way towards his exposed member to give it a seductive lick. But before she her tongue could touch the tip of his hardening length, Umah begins to hear Vorador's voice within the 'Whisper', causing her to stop immediately.

"Umah, it is urgent that I speak with you at once regarding some strange occurrences recently happening within the Great Southern Lake", Vorador said within the 'Whisper, causing both Travas and Umah to blush heavily and embarrassingly as they both let out a medium-soft squeal in shock while the two began to redo their bottoms quickly.

"Very well then, Vorador, you may speak", Umah replied embarrassingly, but calmly upon the surprise 'Whisper' from Vorador, hoping he catch on what they were doing.

"We have received news from one of our vampires that there have been dead bodies found upon the Great Southern Lake just moments ago… and some of the bones that have resided there for some time have been found near the lake as well have been proven to be vampuric. Where are you currently residing upon right now", Vorador asked within the female vampire's mind.

"I am located close towards the shores of the Nactholm Cove as we speak, Vorador", Umah replied.

"Alright then… but what makes of Travas, is he with you at this time", Vorador asked once more within the 'Whisper'.

"Yes, he is with me at the moment", Umah replied in the 'Whisper' as she looked upon Travas, thus causing him enter the 'Whisper'.

"Hello…? Vorador, are you there…?" Travas spoke calmly, yet slightly annoyed within the 'Whisper' in hopes of getting his attention.

"Travas, this is Vorador speaking, is everything alright", Vorador asked within Travas' mind.

"Yes, Vorador, I'm alright, and you've mentioned something about a few recent murders being conducted near the Great Southern Lake, correct", Travas asked.

"That would be correct, and it is urgent that you and Umah investigate the scene at once. But beware, however, for I am sensing the presence of another vampire nearby", Vorador spoke within 'the whisper' as Travas and Umah headed for the motorcycle. "Oh, and Travas… I do request that you and I commence in a serious discussion when you two return within the Citadel, am I understood", he continued with slight seriousness, though calmly within the "Whisper'.

"Very well, Vorador. We'll go ahead and take a look", Travas spoke as he and Umah got on the motorcycle and drove off into the direction of the Lake.

"Alright then… you two take the upmost of precautions upon the investigation", Vorador spoke once more within the 'Whisper' as he finishes and leaves their minds, causing Travas to sigh calmly.

"Damn… I think I may have an idea upon the topic he might want to speak with me about", Travas said to Umah, starting the ignition and began driving as the female vampire wrapped her arms around his waist. "And not to mention that he interrupted mine and Umah's 'Private' time… Damnit…" he thought within his mind as he continued to drive.

"It will be alright, Travas, it might not be a serious matter with whatever he wishes to speak with you about. But at this time, we must focus upon the task Vorador asked of us to investigate", Umah said as she held onto Travas with care and kissing his neck.

"Thanks, Umah… and hopefully it's not too serious of a matter", Travas spoke as he felt Umah's hand suddenly grab onto his package, softly yelping in response and turning toward her, smirking towards her seductive behavior.

"I will promise you this, though, Travas: We shall continue where we left off later on in the day, am I understood", Umah said to him while smirking seductively.

"That we shall, sexy", Travas replied and winked as he turned to face the road once more and continued to make their way towards the Great Southern Lake.

*Somewhere within the forest*

As Travas and Umah continued their way towards the Great Southern Lake, Kain has been roaming in the woods, keeping a close eye on the two approaching beings. Soon enough, he got to a point to where he was able to see them clearly from a near-front view. Within that instant, his eyes widened in slight shock as he finally recognized who the one of the vampires were, particularly the female.

"Umah…?! How is this possible after I wrought the murderous deed upon her amongst the Wharves after she stole the Nexus Stone from me", Kain asked himself as he looked upon them driving towards the Great Southern Lake. "Well then… it looks like I shall confront her and seek the answers concerning her resurrection… and then, I shall assassinate her a second time", he continued while softly smirking and making his way back towards the Great Southern Lake to confront the two and kill them at once.

*Within the Trail Close by the Great Southern Lake, about five to ten minutes later*

After a small period of time passed by, both Umah and Travas finally arrive upon the pathway that had lead towards the Great Southern Lake. Umah gets off of the motorcycle and turns to face her vulpin boyfriend.

"Travas, you go on ahead and search the western section of the Lake and I will investigate upon the north-eastern section to find any clues concerning these mysterious killings that have been brought upon this location", Umah spoke as Travas nodded in response.

"Alright, Umah… just 'whisper' me if you need any assistance", Travas said as Umah nodded and turned towards the north-eastern direction and began to walk. "Oh, and Umah", he spoke as Umah turned to face him.

"Yes, Travas", Umah asked as she looked upon him curiously.

"Be careful…" Travas said as he approached her.

"I will", Umah spoke as Travas planted a kiss on her lips for good luck. Then Travas headed for the motorcycle and turned for the western direction as Umah made her way towards the north-eastern direction, thus began their investigation.

Though Travas was beginning to search the western direction, a troubling thought had begun to course within his mind concerning the Great Southern Lake murders. And yet… he couldn't pinpoint on what it was exactly that began to bother him regarding the thought.

"I'm not for sure about this… but I got a bad feeling that someone's lurking about in the woods other than the being committing the murders", Travas thought within his mind as he continued to drive towards the western part of the lake.

Within less than a minute, he arrives and begins to investigate the area for any sign of bones or blood within the site. Then after about a minute or two of searching, he finds the bones of what seemed to be of vampuric, but mostly human quality. But before he was able to get a closer look upon the bones, the troubling thought that coursed his mind had begun to make complete sense. Thus, causing Travas to know exactly what was going on as his eyes shot wide open.

"Oh shit…! This is the same exact place where the vision occurred… the one that I had at the time I was fighting Alastair a month ago! Umah is gonna killed by Kain unless I do something about this", Travas thought within his mind worryingly as he got on the motorcycle and headed towards Umah's direction. "Hang on, Umah, I'm coming!" he shouted within his thoughts as he pressed on the gas and sped his way towards Umah, who doesn't have a clue upon her life being in danger.

*Within the north-eastern part of the Great Southern Lake*

The day had continued to progress as the sunny skies soon became cloudy. Umah has been walking around the forest near the shores of the great southern lake with many things crossing her mind concerning events that happened among the lake. Then she looked upon the river and began to investigate a recent case of vampires, thieves, and other people being murdered among the shores of the great southern lake.

"Though there seems to be no trace of any battles among this region, why do I sense a familiar vampuric energy level somewhere within this location? It doesn't make any sense at all… it feels like I am being watched like a pawn in a man's game. I wonder…" Umah said as she continued to investigate the shores of the great southern lake. Then suddenly, she began to sense the presence of another vampire nearby.

"Ah yes, a familiar face from within the bowels of my blighted past, but had been sense long dead by my hands. Umah, how is it that you live upon the land of Nosgoth after you have died by my ravenous hands", the cold, yet familiar voice said as Umah shot her head up upon the direction it came from. It was then that she recognized who the man was.

"Kain", Umah said as she began to feel rage and fear build within herself.

"Yes, it is I, Kain, your former ally within the Vampire Resistance… and now stands here before you as your assassin", Kain spoke. "So tell me, who was the one that brought you back into this dimension after I had assassinated you in response from you stealing the Nexus stone from me", he asked coldly as Umah had begun to step away from him slightly frightened.

"How I have been revived is of no concern to you. Now be gone and leave me the hell alone, Kain! I don't want to see you here", Umah shouted in response as her eyes began to water up.

"I'm afraid that I won't be leaving until you provide me the answers I seek, woman. Now tell me who revived you at once before I rip out your heart from your vile carcass", Kain yelled viciously as he grabbed her arms aggressively. In response, Umah tries to escape from his grasp, but would not budge due to Kain's strong grip on her.

"I'm not answering your question whatsoever, Kain. Now let go of me at once!" Umah shouted slightly louder as she continued to struggle upon Kain releasing his grip on her.

"Answer me at once, Umah!" Kain yelled louder while tightening his grip upon her as she screamed in pain.

"FUCK YOU!" Umah screamed from the top of her lungs while giving him the finger. Kain finally snaps and began preparing to strike Umah in the heart, causing the female vampire to shut her eyes and turned away from him. But before Kain was able to pierce through her chest, he felt a tightening grip upon his attacking wrist, stopping him from even laying the slightest finger on Umah. In that moment, Kain looks upon the direction of Umah's apparent protector, noticing that it was Travas stopping his attack. Thus, Umah looked upon him as she saw Travas come to her rescue.

"Travas", Umah spoke fearfully, yet relieved to see him.

"You", Kain said aggressively as he looked upon the vulpin next to him.

"Yes, Kain, the vampuric fox-man you have been searching for in recent times. Now how about you do me a favor and get your fucking hands off of her at once. Otherwise if you fail to comply, I will rip out your fucking throat myself, you heartless son of a bitch", Travas spoke aggressively as Kain releases Umah from his ravenous grip, thus facing him while softly smirking in delight.

"Ah, yes, so you're the one that many people call Travas Starfox, the first ever living vampire in all of Nosgoth… and the one whose vulpine hands have assassinated both Adrian the Sun Demon, and Alastair Ballantine, the Water Demon. However, I must confess that it is an honor, though a distasteful one, to meet you here at last", Kain said as he began to stretch his claws.

"Oh, cut the bullshit, Kain! I know damn well why you're here. You were here to seek answers on why Umah had been resurrected. And because she wouldn't originally answer, you would've killed her in the same method you have attempted to try moments ago. It's a damn good thing that I can read minds and see the future, otherwise I wouldn't have known about this and she would've died during the search", Travas spoke as Umah looked at him in shock and Kain began chuckling evilly upon his words.

"So, you're a vampire with psychic abilities, how intriguing. But it's a shame that this ability must be taken away from you whether it's willingly or by force. I'll leave the option for you to decide", Kain replied as he pulls out the Soul Reaver constrained to his back and gets into his battle stance.

"There's no way in kenal you're going to take my abilities from me or murdering Umah whatsoever, so why don't you do us a favor and fuck off", Travas shouted aggressively as he also got into his battle stance.

"Travas, don't! Kain is stronger and has more experience in combat than you currently have right now! Thus he's equipped with the Soul Reaver and could kill you within a second", Umah yelled while frightened about losing Travas. "You must escape from here and get help at once", she begged urgently as Kain looked upon her in growing anger.

"You stay out of this, girl, otherwise I will have the pleasure in killing you and this fox-man upon which you both stand", Kain yelled aggressively as Travas growled in anger.

"Hey, you leave her the fuck alone, you fucking asshole!" Travas shouted fiercely as Kain began to sprint towards him hastily, preparing his sword for the kill.

"Travas, RUN!" Umah screamed as Kain finally loses his temper and growls angrily as a result from Umah's outburst and stops dead on his tracks.

"Umah, I have warned you to stay out of this …! There is no one that will stop me from my ambition, and no one shall GET IN MY WAY", Kain screamed aggressively as he decides to make his way towards Umah with the Soul Reaver ready for the kill, causing her to turn her head away and shut her eyes in fear. But before the Reaver was able to strike upon Umah, however, Travas got in front of her and caught the ravenous blade effortlessly; causing Kain's eyes to shoot wide open in shock.

"What…! How is this possible", Kain said as he growled aggressively and in shock while Umah opened her eyes to see Travas catching the blade.

"Travas… "Umah said as she looked upon the sight with shock and a sense of safety. "Has he actually surpassed Kain's strength… or is this luck playing its triumphant card on our side", she thought in her mind as she could merely stare in disbelief.

"What trickery is this… is he actually this strong, or has luck played its hand in his favor", Kain thought within his mind as he tried to move the sword further, but wouldn't budge.

"As a matter of fact, Kain, I could actually… no, I am actually stronger than you currently are now", Travas claimed as he tightened his grip upon the blade without it cutting him whatsoever. As a response, Kain began to growl angrily while continuing his attempts to free the blade from the vulpin's hand-paws.

"Unhand the Soul Reaver at once or I will use it to strike upon your heart and kill you and Umah at this moment", Kain threatened as Travas looked at him coldly.

"I doubt that, Kain, and I'm gonna make sure that no one messes with my girl", Travas spoke as Umah gasped in shock while her eyes watered and softly smiling upon him for what he said.

"Travas…" Umah thought within her mind as she smiled softly and looked upon him with watery eyes.

"Very well then… your fate has spoken, Travas", Kain said as he managed to pull the blade out of Travas' hand and looked upon Umah with rage. "And after he dies, I will ensure that you follow the same fate he does", he continued as he began to strike the blade upon Travas, causing him to dodge the attacks effortlessly in response.

After about fifteen seconds of this process, Kain began to place the blade back inside the sheath and started to use his claws to attack. Likewise, Travas began to use his fist to fight back, cancelling each other's attacks in the process. Soon enough, Travas began to have the upper hand against Kain as he manages to fiercely strike him towards a stone hill, creating a crater as a result. However, Kain manages to jump out and strikes upon Travas, giving him a round house kick in his face aggressively and causing him to crash among the grassland below.

"Damn… Kain can sure pack a punch. But it doesn't matter… I have to put an end to this and quickly", Travas thought to himself as he stands back up and jumps into battle position. But then gets out of it when he discovers his opponent refraining from his own battle position.

"I have to admit that I admire your talents as a young warrior, but before we continue, I must ask you this: What was your reason in coming towards this place", Kain asked calmly, though aggressively.

"If you must know, then so be it. Umah and I came upon here investigating the recent murders that have taken place from what apparently has been going on for the past few weeks. We're also currently looking for the assassin that did this and kill him in the process", Travas answered as Kain chuckled upon his response.

"Apparently there is no further need to look for him, for the demon assassin is now dead thanks to my hands that had wrought this murderous deed", Kain answered as he began to laugh hysterically." Now then, shall we continue where we left off", he asked as he got into his battle stance.

"Fine, but I will make sure to end this quickly", Travas spoke as he began to fly towards Kain.

"Very well then, let's continue", Kain spoke as he sprinted towards Travas, causing the both to exchange fists once more.

Within a minute after fighting, Kain had begun to clutch his own hands by means to strike upon Travas' head, but fails as he catches his attack rather quickly. At the same time, the red-purple colored energy, though tame, had begun to engulf Travas as he tried to push Kain's oncoming attack back.

After a minute of trying to push it back, Travas manages to succeed and performs a powerful uppercut attack against Kain, sending him into the air as the vulpin flies upwards towards him. The next thing the vampire had seen was Travas flying towards him in the air and fiercely striking him downwards onto the earth once more. This time, damaging him further and creating yet another crater in the process. In that moment, Travas fires a powerful, though stable, energy blast upon Kain, creating a small explosion that had sent a shockwaves among the Great Southern Lake. Upon short notice, he flies towards Umah and grabs her right hand.

"C'mon, let's go!" Travas exclaimed as he took her towards the Motorcycle parked nearby. Then the two got on and sped off towards the eastern section of Nosgoth.

As they escaped, Kain manages to get back onto his feet, though he was somewhat bloodied and injured, and looks upon the two escaping from the lake.

"I must admit that his attack had caught be by surprise… however, I will ensure that I bring them down to their knees the next time I cross paths with them, especially the new vampire, Travas", Kain said as he began to sprint back towards the pillars in his injured state.

*Within the eastern section of Nosgoth, about ten to fifteen minutes later*

After some time the two vampires have made their escape from the ravenous vampire, Kain, the two soon stumble upon the town of Stahlberg. Upon Arrival, the rain had begun to slightly pour from the clouds that had arrived earlier that day. Though with luck on their side, they spot a nearby hotel with a garage and park the motorcycle within. Soon they enter the hotel as the rain began to pour quicker upon Nosgoth.

The next thing on their minds was that they headed for the lobby to get the keys for their room. Once they've acquired the key, they begin to head towards their room upstairs and get settled until the ongoing rain has stopped. Travas then heads for the bed to sit next to Umah, who has been silent throughout their escape.

"We should be safe from Kain here, though it looks like we may be here until the rain subsides… which should take til no later than tomorrow at dawn", Travas spoke as he rubbed her back comfortingly as Umah looked upon him and nodded in response. "Umah, are you okay…?" he asked while looking upon her in a worried manner.

In hopes of comforting her from the events that have taken place, he begins to hold her in his arms with the upmost of care. In response, Umah begins to hold onto Travas gently… but after about ten few seconds pass by, her grip slightly tightens as she began to sob uncontrollably.

"Travas… I'm scared… Umah spoke with a frightened, sad tone as she continued crying upon his shoulders while he held onto her comfortingly.

"Everything's going to be okay, Umah… I'm here for you", Travas spoke comfortingly as Umah continued crying on his shoulders and gripping upon him slightly tighter than before.

After about ten minutes of being inside the hotel room, Umah's crying begins to subside as they lie back upon the comfortable mattress provided for their stay. Travas continued to look upon the ceiling as Umah rests her head upon his chest calmly. But soon enough, the silence within the room begins to break as Umah began to look into her boyfriend's eyes.

"Travas… can I ask you something", Umah asked curiously.

"Sure, what is it", Travas replied with curiosity coursing his mind.

"What was it that made you said that 'I'm gonna make sure that no one messes with my girl', and what did you mean by that", Umah asked while looking upon Travas' green eyes.

"Well… I said that as means of keeping my pre-mate safe from anyone who tries to harm her as much as I could", Travas replied as something within his explanation confused Umah.

"Wait… 'Pre-mate'… you mean like boyfriend and girlfriend", Umah asked as Travas looked upon her.

"That's right, though I've only heard a few humans mention those terms before", Travas replied while slightly embarrassed. "Fuck… I really need to get fluent with these Earth terms more often", he thought to himself as he blushed embarrassingly.

"Something wrong", Umah asked worriedly.

"Not really, I just have to get fluent with Earth's English instead of my usual Alden/Alopex English", Travas said as he rubbed the back of his head with his left hand-paw.

"I see… and thank you… for being there for me", Umah spoke softly as she kissed his cheek, causing him to blush.

"You're welcome, Umah… I will always be there for you whenever you need me", Travas replied as he kissed her lips softly. As a response, Umah began to kiss him back as she wrapped her arms around his neck while he wrapped his arms around her waist.

Within about five minutes of the couple passionately kissing each other, Travas and Umah were stripped from their clothes and underneath the covers. Travas had already begun to thrust into Umah's nether lips as she continued to kiss him and moan in pleasure. At the same time, Travas gripped upon the sheets with a strong, yet gentle force as he sped up the pace in his thrusting slightly. But within a period of fifteen minutes passing, Travas rolls over until he was on his back, placing Umah on top. And in that moment, he pulls out of her nether lips and releases his life-giving essence onto her lower back as they look at each other's eyes and blush.

"I must admit this since I have not told you yet: you are well endowed with the ability to please a woman at the most heightened level possible", Umah said while smirking in delight.

"That I am, babe", Travas said while smirking as he began to inch closer to her. But before he was able to kiss her, he felt another sharp pain in his head again as this began to worry Umah greatly.

"Travas", Umah said worryingly as Travas placed his right hand-paw over his eyes. Thus, another vision began to play inside his mind.

*Vision*

Within the Alopex Space Station, the morning has approached as the sun began to shine amongst the residents within. Though inside the Starfox family home in particular, everyone has awakened with most of its residents sitting at the table inside the kitchen for a good morning breakfast. Within a minute after breakfast is handed to Scarlet and Erica, their father, Travas Sr., enters the kitchen in his military and greets his wife, Victoria, with a kiss on her muzzle lovingly as the kids watched with humorous disgust.

"Ewww…!" Both Scarlet and Erica said in unison as they looked at their parents kissing each other. Then, Travas Sr. breaks the kiss and looks upon Victoria's green eyes.

"Have a good day, Travas", Victoria said as she went behind him and helped set up his uniform.

"Big day for paperwork… boring, but necessary", Travas Sr. spoke as Scarlet put on her back pack and headed towards him while crossing her arms. He also rubbed her head as Victoria begins to finish up fixing her mate's suit.

"Someone wants to get going", Victoria said as she finishes up and Travas Sr. rubs on Scarlet's head gently.

"Yes, the little general isn't one for wasting time. She likes things her way", Travas Sr. replied as Victoria finishes up before he and his daughter, Scarlet, headed towards the door.

"Bye hon, have a good day at school at School, Scarlet", Victoria spoke as she waved them goodbye as Scarlet did for her mother and sister.

"Bye! Bye!" Erica said as she waved back at Scarlet and watched them leave out the front door. Then her mother turned to her with a smile on her face and helped her off of the chair she sat on.

"I'll clean up, you can go watch TV", Victoria said as Erica ran for the living room with joy and she herself was about the dishes to the kitchen to clean them off.

"Yea…!" Erica spoke loudly with excitement while making her way towards the living room for the TV as Victoria giggles and smiled in delight.

While Victoria was doing the dishes, many thoughts began to course through her mind as she was humming to herself. However, she noticed that there was no sound coming from the Living Room whatsoever.

"It's too quiet out there…" Victoria thought within her mind as she stopped doing the dishes and headed for the Living Room to investigate. "Erica…?" she asked while looking around the Living Room.

"Hehe", Erica said as her mother turned to face her, seeing that she was on top of the cabinet containing decorative dishes inside. "Hi Mommy", she said with a shocking look as Victoria looked upon her with a shocked, disappointed expression on her face.

"Just what do you think you're doing up there, Little Miss Foxy?! Get down here now", Victoria spoke loudly as she walked towards the cabinet while Erica was getting down. "Here, let me help before you hurt yourself", she continued while helping her to the ground.

After Victoria got Erica off of the Cabinet, she gets into her knees and looks upon her daughter with a calm, but a serious, disappointed expression.

"That was a very dangerous stunt, Erica. Don't let me catch you doing that again, understand" Victoria asked sternly and seriously as Erica looked upon her with her arms behind her back.

"Yes, Mommy", Erica replied as Victoria nodded and turned slightly away from her while gently rubbing her own muzzle chin.

"I don't even know how you got up there", Victoria said to herself as Erica headed for the cabinet once again.

"I'll show you, Mommy", Erica said slightly happily as she attempted to climb the cabinet, but was stopped by her mother as she pulled gently, but firmly on the back of her shirt.

"Didn't I just tell you no", Victoria asked loudly as she carried Erica towards the couch in the living room and set her there. "Now sit and behave, I have to do laundry. Can you behave for five minutes" she asked once more.

"Uh-huh", Erica replied as Victoria headed for the washer close-by the kitchen and began to work on a load of laundry.

While Victoria was doing laundry, thoughts continued to course through her mind as she began to pour the detergent inside the washer. Then out of nowhere, she began to hear some bumping noises nearby.

"Whhheeeeeeee", Erica yelled happily from the short distance.

"Now what…?" Victoria spoke loudly as she headed towards the Living Room, only to see that her daughter wasn't there. "Erica…? Where are you", she asked while looking for her daughter.

"Upstairs", Erica replied as Victoria headed for the stairs, seeing that her daughter has her good baking sheet.

"Alright, Little Miss Foxy, what are you doing with my good baking sheet", Victoria asked loudly while looking upon Erica angrily.

"'Bogin ride", Erica yelled as she began to slide off the stairs with the baking sheet. "'Bogin ride', 'Bogin ride'", Erica yelled happily as she was sliding and bumping off of the stairs.

"Erica, NO" Victoria screamed as she ran to the stairs with her arms forward. "Thank the Maker", she said while catching Erica with ease until she felt a sharp pain on her lower legs as a result from the baking sheet hitting her.

As a response, she dropped to her knees after setting her daughter down and held onto one of her lower legs to hopefully soothe the pain she had sustained from the baking sheet.

"Ow…! Where does a station kit learn about toboggan rides? Blasted internet" Victoria said to herself while holding onto her lower leg in pain.

For the remainder of the day, Victoria had continued to deal with Erica's playful behavior as she was becoming annoyed with what she was doing for fun. Erica had been doing things such as helping her clean with detergent in an annoying manner, dressing up, attempting magic tricks, climbing the freezer to get ice cream, and swimming inside the tub. Soon after finishing in the latter part of the day, she begins to smile like an innocent being with her arms behind her back as the front door opens, with her father finally returning home.

"I'm home early", Travas Sr. Spoke as Victoria sighed in relief.

"Daddy", Erica yelled happily as she ran towards her father. Soon, she jumped on him as he caught her, shocked with the sudden impact she made.

"Hi, little girl… what are you doing up? Shouldn't you be down for your nap", Travas Sr. asked as Victoria instantly looked upon him in an annoyed manner.

"Her nap…? Her nap…?! Your daughter has run me ragged all day! Little Miss Foxy has been into everything. You can watch her, I am going to Bed", Victoria explained slightly loudly as she headed for her room and Travas Sr. looked upon his daughter, softly smiling upon the nickname she has received.

"Hmm, 'Foxy'… I like that", Travas said as he held onto his sleeping daughter in his arms. Then within that moment, the vision itself began to end.

*Vision End*

At the moment the vulpin began to recover from the vision he had, Travas immediately began laughing to himself softly. But soon the laughter became louder as this relieved Umah greatly, but was curious upon his behavior.

"Is everything alright, Travas", Umah asked, though relieved, as Travas looked upon her, still laughing.

"Everything's alright, I just had a hilarious vision concerning my sister, Erica, That's all. Clear your mind and I'll show you what it was", Travas replied as Umah began to clear her mind from all of her thoughts. Soon Travas placed his hand upon Umah's forehead as the same vision played in her head. After the vision had finished playing, Umah herself had begun to laugh with Travas as they lie upon the bed comfortingly.

"I can sense that she's like you in nature", Umah claimed as Travas looked upon her eyes.

"Yep, especially since I was like her when I was her age… always giving Mom a hard time", Travas admitted as he chuckles and kisses Umah's lips while lying down upon the bed. "Well… the good thing is that at least there is some hope for my family back on Alopex. I can only hope they're doing okay at this time…" Travas thought to himself as he continued to look upon the ceiling above him. Soon the two had begun to drift off into a comforting sleep with hopes for what the future may be in store for them… and what the future may come for Travas' family on Alopex.
