Driving down a darkened road near the seaside a lone car was heading away from a human city. The dark blue car raced along at high speed as the blue sea was next to the road under the moonlight. Inside the car Felucia was looking ahead with worried eyes, driving the vehicle as fast as she could. The paneling under the steering wheel was broken open after the demon had hotwired the first car she came across. She glanced next to her side at Luna, the girl still unresponsive to everything around her. Felucia had wrapped the chronofly in blanket she found in the trunk of the car and rested her in the front seat, showing great concern for her friend as the girl's eyes wouldn't focus and she hadn't made a sound since her rescue from the dark world.
"Just hang on Luna; we're going to see the others real soon. They'll help you, I promise," Felucia said looking back ahead. She growled and hit the steering wheel with her fist in frustration.
"I can't believe that fucker used you like that, Dark's going to fucking tear him apart for this!" she yelled out as she drove the car down the darkened road.
The car headed along the road towards a nearby tunnel up by a small hill, racing towards it as Felucia looked up at the sky.
"When my friends hear about this, they'll be after you, mark my words," she said with hatred. The car raced into the tunnel with its headlights shining ahead, roaring through the empty passageway as Felucia looked around quickly.
"What the… hey, isn't this…" she said as the car raced through the tunnel. After a while the vehicle sped out of the other end, the demon then slamming on the brakes and stopping in the middle of the road.
"What the fuck? We're still here?" she said looking around quickly. She growled then turned the car around, racing back into the tunnel. A while later the vehicle roared out of the other end of the passageway, again stopping with a loud screech.
"What is this? Why are we still here?" Felucia yelled out. She growled with frustration and looked around to seeing that they were still in the human world on the same street as before.
"No… no no no, this isn't happening, not now," she said looking back to Luna. The chronofly's gaze was looking down a bit as her head rested against the window. Felucia looked at her worriedly then to the glowing band of light on her wrist.
"I don't have time for this," she said worriedly before looking around quickly, showing a nervous expression from the thought of being unable to return to the monster world. She hit her fists on the wheel with a yell and looked down with frustration. After a pause she turned the car back around and raced through the tunnel, once again driving out the other side at high speed.
'Dammit, I don't know what the fuck is going on here but I need to get Luna help right now!'
She looked back to her comrade, the chronofly still seeming to be in a state of shock after her ordeal.
'Luna… my god, what did they do to you?'
Felucia growled a bit then looked ahead at the road.
"Just hang on Luna, I still have a few old contacts in this world, somebody will help us get you home," she said with frustration as the car raced down the road under the night sky above.
Under the same night sky five vehicles were driving down a road next to the seaside, the large group of monsters heading towards possible refuge nearby from the human authorities. The vehicles drove down the road for a long while before coming up into a human city near a large hillside. As the group of cars continued through the streets of the human city some concerns were being voiced.
"What are we doing here? I thought we were going away from the humans, not into another one of their cities," Moka said looking around outside.
"How are we going to hide here? There are humans everywhere," Mizore said looking around as the five cars passed a few other vehicles and people walking down the streets of the city. There were small houses and shops set up around the edge of the city with larger buildings towards the center, with streetlamps lighting up the roads as humans were going about their usual nightlife.
"Why is Fang Fang taking us here? There are humans all around us," Yukari said worriedly as she looked outside her window. Ran trembled a bit and shook her head.
"This isn't good, we can't hide here, they'll find us for sure," she said nervously.
Complica looked around worriedly then back to Ceal.
"Ceal, what are we doing here? I thought we were going to hide from the humans," she said softly.
"Relax, we're not in danger," the mage said simply while driving behind the others.
"Not in danger? There are humans all around us, how are we not in danger here?" Kokoa asked looking out the windows with concern. Ceal glanced back to her in the rearview mirror then forward again.
"I meant she and I are not in danger vampire. Worse comes to worse I'll keep her safe from the humans. You however are on your own," he said simply. Kokoa looked at him with a bit of surprise as Gin and Sun glanced to each other worriedly.
In the lead car Fang Fang was driving with a calm expression while his passengers were looking around with wide eyes.
"What are you doing taking us into a human city? We're trying to avoid being near the humans, remember?" Kurumu said looking to the yasha with disbelief. The boy glanced to her in the rearview mirror and nodded.
"Yes miss, and we will be safe once we get to my family's estate, it's just outside the city limits. We merely have to pass through here, but don't worry, there's nothing suspicious about us just driving through like this," he said calmly. Gabriel and Rason looked to each other then back around as the group continued through the streets.
"Your family lives right next to a human city?" Rason asked cautiously.
"Why yes, we do a lot of business with both the human and monster worlds," Fang Fang said with a smile.
"What kind of business is that exactly?" Kurumu asked.
"Oh, a little of this, a little of that," Fang Fang said with a shrug.
"That seems to be all we ever get out of him," Gabriel commented.
"Yes, it's not doing wonders to calm my concerns about this," Rason said dryly as he looked around at the passing city. Fang Fang led the other vehicles through the city limits and towards the large hillside next to the area, with the group seeing a large lush forest surrounding the hill. They drove through a road into the woods which was lit up by street lamps along the way, with the group looking around curiously as they headed towards the yasha's home. After a long while the group of monsters emerged from the woods, with all of them looking ahead with wonder.
"Welcome to my home," Fang Fang said with a hint of pride in his voice. Up ahead was a large Chinese villa with smooth stoned walls around the expansive compound. A few roofs were seen above the large walls while dozens of torches were lit along the top of the barrier. A large structure was seen towards the back of the villa with a multiple stories that had a few windows lit as well with a soft glow. Off to the right side of the villa was a large pond that had an elegant bridge across it, while on the left side of the villa there were several large semi-trucks with their trailers parked under a simple roofing structure that had a sloped wooden shingle top.
"Wow," Ahakon said with wide eyes.
"Wow is right, is this kid rich or something?" Ruby asked looking to Razico. The warlock just shrugged as the vehicles drove up towards the large main gate. It was a larger metal barrier that had emblemized flames in front of it. As they came to a stop several men were seen coming from a small metal door off to the side of the main gate, all of them wearing black shoes, black dress pants and shirts with white undershirts, black ties, and sunglasses. They also had handguns and SMGs in their hands as they watched the five vehicles park off to the side of the main gate.
"Fantastic, he leads us up to a heavily armed human villa, this was a great plan," Render said flatly as the other passengers looked at the armed men with caution.
From one of the cars Fang Fang stepped out and waved to the guards.
"Hello, it's me, Fang Fang. I have returned," he called out. Two men walked up and looked closely at the yasha, then jumped a bit.
"Master Fang Fang, you've returned. We thought you were taken in by the HDA." one of them said with a smile. The yasha chuckled and walked up to them.
"I was, however I was liberated by a group of monsters. I'm pretty lucky to have met them when I did, otherwise I might still be in that damned HDA cell or worse," he said with a calm smile. He looked back to the vehicles then to the guards.
"I've brought them back here to rest after a daring rescue, please open the gates and let them in. I'm afraid they've been having a very tiring day," he said with a smile.
"Yes, of course," a guard said before he walked back towards the small door. Fang Fang nodded then walked back to the car and got in with the passengers staring at him with curious eyes.
"You live here?" Kurumu asked with wonder. The boy chuckled nodded a bit.
"Well yes, my family does own a few estates around the world, but I spend most of my time here. I did grow up here as a little boy, so it's more of my actual home compared to the others," he said simply. The three passengers looked to each other with wonder then back ahead as the large metal gate started to rise up through the barrier and up over the top. Fang Fang drove in with the others following after, the five vehicles driving into a large courtyard with small gardens on both sides and a stone brick pathway leading into the villa up ahead. There were a few small buildings and structures with the larger one seen down the path towards the back of the estate. There were dozens of armed guards walking around while several black and white limos and SUVs were parked off to the side of the entrance courtyard.
"Wow, this guy must be loaded," Render said looking around.
"Well his father was able to hire a dragon slayer, looks like they're pretty well off," Leon reasoned in agreement. Apoch and Astreal just continued to look around with wonder at the very large estate of the yasha.
The vehicles pulled off to the side of the courtyard as a group of guards walked up to them. Fang Fang and his passengers got out of their car and walked in front of the vehicle, with a few of the guards jumping a bit from seeing Rason's wings.
"Wha… what is he? Is he…" one of them said pointing to him. Fang Fang nodded and gestured to Rason and Gabriel.
"Believe it or not, these are two angels from heaven gentleman; please make sure they feel comfortable here. They are on assignment from above with a very important task, so please give them whatever they need while staying here," he said casually. Rason glanced to his wings then back to the guards as Gabriel waved a bit. Kurumu continued to look around with wonder as the large gate started to close behind them. From another vehicle Dark, Arial, Moka, and Mizore got out and walked up to the others, with Arial holding onto Dark's hand while looking around curiously. Fang Fang waved to Arial then looked to the guards.
"That young one is an angel from above as well, treat her with the utmost care and make sure you keep fire away from her at all times, is that understood?" he said in a commanding tone. The men nodded and stood at attention.
"Yes master Fang Fang," they said together.
"Master Fang Fang?" Moka asked looking to the yasha with wonder. The boy chuckled and shrugged modestly.
"You can just call me by my name, I'm not much for formal titles anyway," he said casually. Dark and Mizore glanced to each other then looked around curiously while Arial gazed around at the large estate.
From an SUV another group got out and walked over to the others, with Razico and Ruby looking around curiously while Ahakon, Yukari, and Ran looked to Fang Fang with wonder.
"This is your home? Really?" Ahakon asked looking around with awe. The yasha nodded and gestured around.
"Yes, and you're all welcome to stay here as long as you like, heroes of Alucard," he said graciously.
"What? Heroes of Alucard?" the guards said in shock looking to the group. Fang Fang nodded and gestured to the group with a proud smile.
"Yes, these are indeed the heroes of that day. Do not fear, they are indeed the peacekeepers that their stories told of; the HDA had blamed another monster attack on them with their ignorance. It was by greatest luck that they turned out to be my saviors today, so please make them feel welcome," he said with a slight bow. The guards jumped a bit then bowed at the group, with everybody glancing to each other curiously.
"I gotta say, this is some… place to lay low," Razico said with a nod.
"I'll say, I might be able to get a nice bath tonight after all," Ruby said with a small smile, eager to have a proper bath after her long duration in Paradise and through her ordeal in the human world.
From another car Render and Leon got out along with Apoch and Astreal, the four walking over to the others while looking around with wonder.
"Holy crap man, this is your place?" Render asked looking to Fang Fang. The yasha nodded and smiled at the boy.
"Yes, please, make yourselves at home while you stay here," he said politely.
"This is quite a large estate, what is it your family does anyway?" Leon asked.
"Oh you know, a little of this, a little of that," Fang Fang said with a slight smile.
"Just what exactly does that entail, I mean look at this place," Kurumu said looking around with wonder.
"Father has some summer homes like this around the monster world, is your father a dark lord?" Moka asked curiously. Fang Fang smiled nervously and shook his head.
"No no, nothing like that my dear," he said before glancing away.
"Then just what does your family do to afford living in place like this and hiring a dragon slayer?" Dark asked curiously. Fang Fang hesitated then smiled worriedly at them.
"Well…" he said slowly.
"Go on yasha, explain to them what your family does in this world," Ceal's voice called out. The group looked over as the guards jumped in surprise to seeing Ceal walking towards them with Complica holding onto his hand. Behind them Gin, Kokoa, and Sun were looking around at the villa with wonder before back to the catalyst mage.
"Selling weapons, magic, artifacts, and having connections with most of the lower street gangs and low rate mobs in the area; of course that's probably just a small part of your family's income, am I right?" Ceal said staring at the yasha with cold eyes. The group looked to Fang Fang with surprise as the nearby guards aimed their guns at the catalyst mage.
"It's Ceal Erres! He's returned!" a guard yelled out. Fang Fang jumped a bit then waved his hands around quickly.
"No, don't shoot! He's a guest here too! Stand down now, stand down!" he called out. The guards looked to him with surprise then back to Ceal as the mage glared at them. Complica held onto his hand and shook her head worriedly.
"Don't hurt him, he helped everybody today," she pleaded urgently. Fang Fang looked around nervously then back to Ceal.
"So wait, you're…" Render said looking to Fang Fang. The yasha smiled and nodded while rubbing the back of his head.
"A member of a major Chinese mafia in this region, or rather the son of the leader," Ceal said simply. The group stared at the yasha with surprise as the boy laughed weakly.
"I guess… you could put it that way," he said nervously.
"What is he doing here master Fang Fang?" a guard demanded with anger as the men kept their guns at the ready. Fang Fang shook his head and gestured to them to lower their weapons.
"I said for all of you to stand down, he is one of those responsible for my safe return, and is a welcome guest here as well," he asserted firmly.
"A guest? He's not allowed on these grounds after what he did, your father would never permit it," a guard said shaking his head.
"Well I'm permitting it. I'll deal with my father if he has a problem with that, in the meantime you will treat this one as a guest here as well, that's an order," Fang Fang said sternly. The guards looked to each other then slowly lowered their weapons.
"You're part of the Chinese mafia?" Moka asked with wonder at Fang Fang. The yasha smiled weakly and nodded.
"Yes, that is correct miss," he said gently. He looked around to everybody staring at him then sighed quietly.
"I'll be happy to answer any of your questions that I'm sure you're eager to ask, but first how about we go inside and have a nice warm meal. My guards will show you all to your rooms while you're staying here, and my tailors will be happy to provide you with more comfortable clothing if you prefer," he offered, gesturing towards the villa.
"Wow, that's very nice of you Fang Fang," Ruby said with a smile.
"Yeah, a warm meal sounds great right about now," Ahakon said with a nod.
"Hold it yasha," Ceal snapped with narrowed eyes. Fang Fang jumped a bit and looked to him nervously as the catalyst mage raised an eyebrow.
"There's still the matter of my payment," he said expectantly.
"Payment?" a guard scoffed with discontent. Fang Fang raised a hand to silence the guards then nodded slowly.
"I'll be happy to pay you the full amount we agreed to, but for now please allow me to offer you all lodgings and a meal, I'm sure you're all hungry after a tiring day," he said glancing to the others.
"Either you offer the agreed amount now or you'll pay with your blood," Ceal said coldly. The guards aimed their guns at him before Fang Fang waved his hands around quickly.
"I said stand down! Stand down, that means don't fire!" he called out. The group looked at Fang Fang curiously then to Ceal as the boy glared at the yasha. Slowly the guards lowered their guns as Complica looked from them to Ceal's necro hand that had a black hue slowly fading from it. Fang Fang sighed and nodded then smiled a bit at the mage.
"Very well, I will honor our agreement, both on behalf of my father and myself," he said assuredly. He looked to a guard with a firm expression and snapped his fingers.
"Bring forth 9000 gold bars at once, I'll be paying off the debt to Ceal Erres on behalf of my family as well as a fair price for today's hardships," he ordered. The guards looked at him with surprise as the group watched Ceal curiously.
"What's he going to do with it? Take it to a bank then come back here?" Yukari asked puzzled.
"9000 gold bars isn't exactly walking around money, how's he going to take it out of this place?" Moka wondered curiously.
"I'm not sure, but it's his money so it's his call," Razico reasoned with a shrug. Complica nodded then looked to Fang Fang while holding onto Ceal's hand.
"But master Fang Fang, 9000 gold bars? Your father would never allow this, we can't-" a guard pleaded before Fang Fang clenched his fists in frustration.
"Just do it! Bring it out of my own savings if you must, I will not go back on our word with a dragon slayer!" he yelled out at the guard. The man nodded then took off as Fang Fang looked down with a downtrodden expression.
"I can just tell how father will react to this, though I'm not sure which ceremonial blade he will choose to behead me with. Oh well, better dying by him than a dragon," he reasoned with a shrug. He glanced back to Ceal and smiled a bit.
"You're more than welcome to your money Ceal, but what are you going to do with it? And right now no less," he asked. Ceal glanced to him then looked around casually at the villa as all eyes were on him. Fang Fang looked at him curiously then smiled a bit at the others.
"Well, while we wait for my guard to return with his payment, I suppose you have a few questions to ask," he said with a small smile.
"Depends, what's your definition of 'a few'?" Dark asked with a raised eyebrow. Fang Fang nodded and rubbed the back of his head.
"I suppose I see what you mean. Well, let's just start with the most prominent ones you may have for me," he suggested with a slight smile.
"So are you really a criminal?" Yukari asked curiously. Fang Fang jumped a bit and shook his head.
"No no no, not at all young miss. Yes, my family does deal with… less than reputable humans and monsters with our work, but all our dealings are perfectly legal, both in this world and the monster world. We may run close to that line, but we never cross it, we do have some pride you know," he said with a chuckle.
"So why did the HDA lock you up then?" Leon asked curiously.
"I'm afraid it was because I'm a monster. I was registered with the HDA, seeing as how I wanted to be able to move freely between countries without incident, and those that were registered with them were immediately arrested and taken in when things started to go bad. I was taken straight off the street to their command center to be held in contempt merely for being a monster in this world," Fang Fang explained with remorse.
"So you being in the mafia had nothing to do with it?" Render asked curiously. Fang Fang paused then smiled weakly.
"Well, nothing that I would imagine would warrant an execution," he said with a small laugh. The group glanced to each other then back to him as the boy looked down to the ground with worry.
"But they know you're a monster, they'll come here looking for you won't they? How is this a safe place to be?" Ran asked looking around. Fang Fang looked to her and smiled.
"Because my dear, I may have been registered with the HDA, but all my paperwork listed my home being in China, not here in Japan. This estate is owned by my father, who my paperwork does not refer to at all as I listed my family being deceased. I may have been registered with the HDA, but being raised in the mafia did teach me some things about keeping my identity and assets hidden from view. As far as the human government is concerned this villa is owned by a rich businessman, which is technically true, and I was a simple yasha from the monster world who lived in China," he said with a shrug. Ran nodded slowly then glanced to Ahakon, the mage looking at the yasha curiously.
"Where is your father anyway?" he asked. Fang Fang smiled slightly and looked off over to the horizon.
"He's away on business outside of the country for the time being. However with the HDA now declaring war I'm sure he'll be seeking refuge and keeping out of sight until this is cleared up. I'll trust he'll be safe for now," he said with a nod. He paused then glanced to Ceal, the mage looking off to the side with a dull expression.
"Pity, I would have looked forward to meeting him again," Ceal said flatly. Complica looked up at him and tugged his hand gently to get his attention.
"What are you going to do with your money Ceal? That's an awful lot of gold," she asked softly. He glanced down to her then away again without saying a word.
"I'm rather curious myself, 9000 gold bars… none of our vehicles will carry that without breaking down. Why are you asking for it now?" Ruby asked curiously.
"Retribution," Ceal said simply.
"But he's agreed to give you your money whenever you want, why take it now? Where are you going to put it, we're trapped here anyway, it's not like you can take it back to your home in the monster world," Kurumu said curiously. Again the mage didn't say a word and continued to look around the villa carefully as everybody watched him with a curious eye.
After a long wait the front gate opened and in drove a large semi truck with a cargo trailer hooked to it. It had several wheels under it as the vehicle pulled to a stop in the middle of the courtyard. A guard stepped out and walked over to Fang Fang then stood before him with a slight bow.
"Here you are, 9000 gold bars from your own personal account master Fang Fang. I must say however, I don't believe your father will approve of this in the slightest," he said cautiously.
"I know, but a deal is a deal. Thank you," Fang Fang said with a nod before looking at the large trailer.
'There goes my shopping money for the summer.'
"Alright then Ceal, here you are, just as we agreed on. Does this make amends for what my family did in the past?" he asked looking to Ceal. The catalyst stepped towards the truck as Complica stood back and watched with wonder. The boy held out his necro hand as the group watched him curiously, the mage focusing his magic as his hand glowed a black hue. From under the large truck black rifts appeared with dark tentacles reaching up and around the vehicle.
"What is he doing?" Gin asked as the group saw the necro demon from below slowly grabbing onto the truck. From under the vehicle the dark rifts started to grow and expand under it, with the image of the demon's large mouth with teeth slowly becoming visible. Fang Fang looked at the sight with wonder as all the nearby guards watched cautiously. Suddenly the dark limbs started to crush down and ensnare the truck, the trailer bending down with a screeching sound while the windows from the front shattered. The vehicle rumbled a bit before crushing downwards and slowly sifting down through the large rift.
"What's he doing?" Moka asked with surprise as the group saw the dark tentacles pulling the large truck down into the mouth of the necro demon. Complica watched with awe as the truck screeched and crushed inward before sliding down into the rift. A ghastly groaning sound was heard as the limbs pulled the truck down into the necro demon's mouth. Fang Fang watched with shock as the truck was devoured by the demon, with the last bits of the vehicle sifting down into the rift before the limbs receded down into the darkness. The rifts then slowly vanished as Ceal lowered his hand.
"What… what the hell?" Razico said as the group looked to Ceal.
"You… fed the gold to your pet," Leon said with surprise.
"What, why? Why did you do that?" Render asked looking back to where the truck carrying a fortune was devoured by the necro demon.
"I merely wanted him to pay for what I've done, gold doesn't matter to me," Ceal said looking back to Fang Fang. The yasha looked at him with a stunned expression then over to where the gold had vanished.
"But… why…" he asked slowly.
"I told you, I wanted you to pay for what you did. Taking away 9000 gold bars from you is all I wanted, I never had any intention on keeping your money," Ceal said without a hint of interest.
"You… you just destroyed 9000 gold bars… just for the hell of it?" Ahakon said with shock. Ceal glanced to him then looked back to Fang Fang with a smirk.
"No, I destroyed 9000 gold bars because they didn't deserve having it at all," he said calmly. Fang Fang looked at the spot where the demon had devoured his gold then downward in stunned silence. Ceal chuckled a bit and looked back to where his demon had pulled the truck down into.
"Gold doesn't matter to me, my family has all the money we need in life. However, gold does matter to you yasha, as it does to so many. Taking away your money and seeing your grief is sufficient payment for your father's ignorance," he said casually. The group looked at him with surprise then over to where 9000 gold bars were destroyed right in front of them.
"He… he just threw away 9000 gold bars… like it was nothing," Render said in disbelief.
"How could you just throw that gold away like that?" Razico asked grabbing his hair. Ceal glanced to him with a raised eyebrow.
"I just said gold doesn't matter to me hunter, I only wanted retribution from this yasha. His loss will do nicely," he said before looking back ahead. Complica looked at the mage with wonder as she held onto his hand, the boy seeming not to care at all about destroying a large amount of gold.
"I… I don't know what to say about this," Moka said with a stunned expression.
"I've never seen anyone throw so much money away, just like that," Kokoa said with shock. Sun just stared at the spot where the necro demon devoured the large amount of gold then looked over to Ceal with wonder.
'Just how much money does his family have anyway?'
Fang Fang sighed then looked to Ceal with a saddened expression.
"I suppose… this makes us even then?" he asked. Ceal glanced to him then towards the larger building near the back of the estate, and then simply nodded once. Fang Fang smiled then glanced to the others.
"Well… anyway, now that that's settled, let's head inside and rest. You've all had a long day, and I imagine tomorrow may be a bit… difficult as well," he said with a bit of remorse. The group looked to him then to each other, all of them knowing that more trouble was looming ahead for them. Fang Fang nodded then snapped his fingers, his guards then snapping out of their stunned state, from having seen a necro demon destroy a truck full of gold, then stood at attention.
"Please escort them inside, and have our cooks prepare a good meal for them. There is much to discuss about current events, but before then they've earned a reprieve," the yasha said calmly.
"Yes sir," the guards said before walking off towards the main building. Fang Fang waved the group over then walked off as well, with the group then following him while looking around at the large estate curiously. For now it appeared they would be safe in the human world, which would give them time to figure out what their next move was regarding so much that had gone wrong in their lives.
"Help me!" Kyouko cried out, running down a darkened street with smoke and flames flaring around her. The girl was dressed in her usual human outfit while running as fast as she could down the damaged street. The sky above was covered with dark clouds as lightning crackled around through the air.
"Somebody, help me!" the girl yelled as she looked around franticly while running down the street. All the tall buildings around her were in ruin with flames flaring through the windows and large openings in the walls. The streets were covered with debris and scorch marks while nearby wreckages of cars were on fire. Kyouko ran down to an intersection and looked around quickly, breathing heavily as she had a frightful expression.
"Tsukune! Falla! Somebody!" she cried out. She looked down one street and saw nothing but billowing smoke, then down another to see fires flaring around a pileup of cars. The girl whimpered and looked back to see a familiar face smiling at her wickedly.
"Where are you going?" Jovian asked with a cold look in her multicolored eyes. Kyouko stared at her with fright and backed up, bumping into something then looking back to seeing another monster standing behind her.
"What's wrong? Are you scared of something?" Jacqueline said before grabbing the human's arms and holding her in place.
"No… you can't be here… you're dead! You're dead!" Kyouko cried out as she thrashed around in the witch's grip. Jovian giggled and walked up to her, eyeing the girl's body with a cold eye.
"You're so cute when you scream Kyouko, you know you always were my favorite toy," she said before she grabbed Kyouko's shirt and tore it off, the human screaming as her bra and chest were exposed.
"Aw, sister, I thought I was your favorite," Jacqueline pouted as she pulled Kyouko down and held her on the ground by her shoulders, the girl screaming and kicking before Jovian grabbed her legs and held them back.
"You are too, but she's my favorite human toy," Jovian said as she tore off the human's denim skirt. Kyouko screamed as she tried to break free, watching with wide eyes as the witches giggled while holding her down.
"No… let me go!" Kyouko cried out as the witches eyed her body with wicked smiles.
"My my Kyouko, you always were the screamer. I just love that about you, so let's see if I can't get you to scream louder for me," Jovian said licking her lips.
"Let me have some time with her too sister, she's such a lively one," Jacqueline said with a giggle. Jovian reached down towards Kyouko's panties, the human staring with fright and shaking her head.
"Somebody HELP!" she screamed at the top her lungs.
CRUNCH!
Jovian jerked back as a metallic blade pierced through her chest, the girl looking down with wide eyes of shock at the blade that appeared to be made of flesh and metal melded together. Kyouko and Jacqueline watched with surprise as Jovian was lifted up into the air by the protruding blade. She coughed out blood and twitched a bit before looking behind her, the girl's head then being cleaved across by another blade with a slick crunch.
"SISTER!" Jacqueline shrieked out as the dead witch's body dropped to the ground. Kyouko stared with wide eyes at the sight, seeing a boy with grayish metallic looking wings standing there staring at Jacqueline with discontent. His dark green eyes glared at the evil witch, the boy dressed with white tennis shoes, black jeans, and a dark green t-shirt with a black denim vest that was left unzipped in the front.
"You…" Kyouko breathed out as the boy had his arms down to his sides, with both of them having metallic looking wraith blades extended out. Jacqueline growled loudly then stood up as she held out a hand to him.
"YOU BASTARD!" she screamed as she fired out her multicolored blast of magical energy. The projectile raced towards the boy before one of his wings swung over to shield him, the attack striking it and streaking off to the side with colorful flames and smoke. In a flash the boy darted forward and sliced off Jacqueline's hand, and then her arm with his other blade, then spun around and sliced off her head with a clean cut. Kyouko stared with wide eyes as the evil witch dropped back dead and in pieces while the winged boy stood over her. He glanced down to her as his blades retracted, the girl blushing as she laid there on the street.
"It's… you…" she said quietly. The boy then kneeled down and lifted the girl into his arms, the human looking at him with wonder as he stood up carrying her. He didn't say anything, just gazed into her eyes as she was held close to him.
"Thank… you…" she said softly. After a moment she blinked then looked over to seeing a growing dark shroud creeping towards them from down the street, the black void howling with a ghostly wail as everything was engulfed by the shadow. Kyouko looked at the approaching darkness then to the boy who was looking ahead at the void with narrowed eyes.
"Who are you?" she asked softly. He glanced to her and smirked slightly, the girl feeling her heart beating faster as his eyes gazed into hers. He opened his mouth to speak and-
"AHHHH!" Rin screamed with fright, waking Kyouko who shot up with wide eyes and a jump. The human looked around quickly, being inside the siren's dorm room at the academy and dressed in simple white shorts and a t-shirt for the night. She and Falla had been asleep on the ground on sleeping mats; however both were wide awake now as Rin was pointing to them with a frightful expression while sitting up in her bed.
"Who are you? What are you doing in my room?" Rin screamed as Kyouko and Falla looked back to her with surprise.
"Rin? What is wrong with you, it's us, Kyouko and Falla," Kyouko said with surprise.
"What's going on, why is she screaming?" Falla asked looking to Rin with wide eyes. The siren pointed to both of them and shook her head.
"Who are you two?" she cried out. She blinked then tapped her headphones, pausing for a moment then showing a worried expression.
"Oh… Kyouko, Falla. Sorry, I… blanked out again," she said with remorse. Falla blinked then groaned and dropped back down onto her pillow as Kyouko stared at Rin with disbelief.
"Seriously? You woke us up screaming all because your headphones glitched out again?" Kyouko asked tiredly.
"I'm sorry; I woke up from a dream and… I didn't remember you two right away. I'm sorry," Rin said with remorse.
"Thank god she's here to protect me, otherwise I don't know what I'd do," Falla muttered into her pillow. Kyouko sighed and lied back down on her pillow, looking up at the ceiling with a blank gaze.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to wake you two like that," Rin said softly. Falla sighed then looked back up to her.
"Its fine Rin, just… go to sleep," she said laying back down again and closing her eyes. Rin nodded then looked to Kyouko.
"Sorry about that Kyouko," she said softly. Kyouko nodded as she kept looking up at the ceiling. The image of the winged boy coming to her rescue and holding her close was at the forefront of her mind, the girl unable to stop seeing his dark green eyes that gazed into hers. Rin looked at her worriedly as she lied back in her bed.
"Kyouko? Is something wrong?" she asked. Kyouko kept looking up at the ceiling with a deep gaze, the girl's mind fixated on something still.
"What was he?" she asked softly. Rin looked at her curiously as Falla merely glanced over to the human with one eye still closed.
"What was who?" Rin asked.
"That boy who stood up for me today, the one with the wings. What is he, who is he?" Kyouko asked softly.
"The one with Alucard's wings?" Falla asked looking over to her friend. Kyouko nodded then glanced to her.
"He said he was a 'hybrid', what kind of monster is that?" she asked. Falla looked at her with concern then up at the ceiling while lying down on her pillow.
"I'm not sure, I never heard of that type of monster before," she said thinking about the mysterious boy they saw earlier that night. Kyouko nodded and looked up with worried eyes.
"I had a dream about him. I was being chased by Jovian and Jacqueline… we were in a city that was in ruins," she said softly. Falla and Rin sat up and looked at the human curiously as she trembled a bit.
"They were going to rape me again… they had me trapped in the street and… they were going to rape me again. I couldn't get away, I couldn't escape from them no matter how far I tried to run," she whimpered.
"Kyouko…" Falla said softly. The human shook her head then looked over to her friend.
"But then he showed up. He came and… he killed them. He killed them like it was nothing at all. He saved me," she said with a slight smile. Falla smiled a bit at her friend, the human girl then looking up at the ceiling with worry.
"He saved me from them… then… a dark shadow started to cover everything nearby. It was… just a black void swallowing up everything in its path," she said softly. Falla and Rin looked at her with concern as the human showed a cautious expression.
"It was coming right for us… but he wasn't running away. He was staring at it… like he was going to fight it. He didn't show any fear, he just stood his ground," she said softly.
"A dark shadow?" Rin asked worriedly. Kyouko nodded then looked over to her.
"Yeah, it… just covered everything, like a pitch black cloud," she said curiously. Rin trembled then hid under her blanket.
"I don't like your dream. I hate the dark, I hate it," she whimpered.
"Sounds like you were just having a nightmare Kyouko," Falla said rubbing one of her eyes as she was still tired.
"It started out like that… but… when he held me in his arms, I wasn't scared. Even with the darkness coming towards us, I wasn't scared at all. I felt so safe and secure, all because of him," Kyouko said looking up with wonder.
"You know what I think Kyouko?" Falla asked simply, the human looking over to her curiously. Falla paused for a moment then shook her head a bit.
"I think we need to find you a boyfriend, one that has nothing to do with Alucard at all, and soon," she said flatly. Kyouko jumped a bit then shook her head with a blush.
"What are you talking about? This has nothing to do with… I wasn't saying… I mean there's nothing wrong with him being in my dream, is there?" she stuttered out.
"At least tell me you weren't naked with him," Falla groaned as she held a hand to her head tiredly. Kyouko turned a bit red and shook her head.
"We weren't naked; it wasn't that kind of dream! …although I was in my underwear when he was carrying me," she said, looking away with a timid expression during the last part. Falla rolled her eyes while Rin peeked out from under her blanket.
"I don't believe this, you can't be serious about liking him that way; he has Alucard's blood in him. That can only lead to trouble Kyouko," Falla said with exasperation.
"So? You don't know that he's bad; he was nice to me when we met earlier. Besides, Akua and Kahlua have Alucard's blood in them as well, and they're not evil," Kyouko reasoned defensively. Falla looked at her with disbelief then shook her head.
"That's not the point here; the point is that some stranger that just flew through the area has wings and blades just like Alucard, something that could only have come from Alucard. That's way too suspicious to trust. Tell me you're not falling for this guy Kyouko, tell me you're not…" she said before she saw Kyouko looking down with a blush. Falla looked at her carefully then shook her head.
"Oh my god, you are. You… you were having that kind of dream about him weren't you?" she said with disbelief.
"No I wasn't! At least… that's not how it started," Kyouko said looking down with embarrassment.
"You've got to be kidding me, you can't seriously like this guy just because he stood up for you," Falla said in exasperation. Kyouko scoffed then looked at her with annoyance.
"Why not, so what if I do like him? What's wrong with that? You liked Ceal even after he threatened to kill us," she snapped.
"Wait, he did what?" Rin asked with surprise.
"He was just bluffing then, he wouldn't have harmed us at all. Besides, he healed my mind Kyouko, he saved my life! That's nothing like what this other guy did, if he hadn't stopped Saizo from making a move on you then I sure would have," Falla argued.
"So? You know it doesn't matter if he has Alucard's blood in him, that doesn't automatically make him evil. You don't know him, you don't know his story, you don't even know for a fact that he does have Alucard's blood. Maybe… maybe those 'hybrid' monsters naturally look like that, maybe that's why," Kyouko reasoned looking down in thought.
"Kyouko, if you want a monster for a boyfriend that badly, might I suggest finding one that doesn't have the same features of a great destroyer that nearly killed all life on earth?" Falla said with frustration.
"This isn't because I want him to be my boyfriend!" Kyouko cried out, and then slapped a hand over her mouth with a jump. Falla looked at her with wide eyes then shook her head.
"You're kidding me; you're really falling for this guy? You don't even know him!" she yelled out.
"You didn't know Ceal either, why's this different?" Kyouko yelled back.
"Because my boyfriend isn't related to Alucard in any way!" Falla shouted out.
"You don't know he's related to that thing, you don't know anything about him!" Kyouko shouted back.
"We saw his wings, we saw his blades; they looked exactly like Alucard's. No other monster has that type of skin or appearance, and the only ones that ever had Alucard's blood in them were once involved with plotting the world's destruction. Akua and Kahlua turned over a new leaf because of your cousin, but we don't know this guy's story, for all we know he's just as evil as Alucard himself!" Falla yelled out. Kyouko growled with frustration then stood up.
"Stop it already! The first time a boy monster actually stands up for me and isn't some creep I'm supposed to just think he's evil because of how he looks?" she yelled out. Falla looked at her with surprise as Rin watched the human worriedly.
"I may never see him again, I may never know his name, I'll likely never know what exactly he is, but he at least wasn't some lecherous jerk before he left. He went out of his way to keep that orc away from me, something he didn't have to do but he did anyway. I never even got to thank him!" Kyouko cried out. She trembled a bit then looked at Falla with a narrowed stare.
"You trusted Ceal, even without knowing what he was or what he could do, even after how he was so cold to you at first you still trusted him, believed that he wasn't some heartless monster," she said with frustration. Falla looked at her worriedly then down. Kyouko shook her head then walked towards the door, stopping at it to glance back to Falla.
"If this other guy really was so evil, if he really was born from Alucard somehow, then he would have killed us all with his blades. He would have gutted us all without remorse, he would have peeled me like an onion, but he didn't. He came here, he stopped that orc from going near me without killing him, and then he left peacefully. Similar appearance or not… I trust him," she said before walking out of the room. Falla glanced back to the door then down with concern. Rin looked to the door with worry then to the chronofly.
"Should we go after her?" she asked. Falla shook her head and looked out the window at the night sky.
"No, I think she wants to be alone right now," she said softly.
"But this is a school for monsters, what if she runs into trouble?" Rin asked worriedly. Falla lied back on her sleeping mat and looked up at the ceiling.
"She's Tsukune's cousin, nobody here in their right mind will lay a hand on her. Just get some rest Rin, she'll come back when she's had time to cool off," she said as she thought about her boyfriend that was trapped in the human world. She closed her eyes and shook her head a bit.
'Ceal was different, he's somebody with a code of honor and a noble cause. This other guy… he's nothing like him at all.'
Standing out in the courtyard near the dorm buildings Kyouko was looking up at the night sky, watching a few clouds passing by with the red moon behind them. She sighed and looked over to the horizon with a gentle gaze, thinking about the boy that came and went so quickly.
"Thank you… for defending me," she said softly. The wind gently rolled by, her hair flowing slightly in the breeze as she looked down with a gentle expression.
"I wonder where you went to… or if you'll ever come back," she said quietly. She remembered him looking back to her before he left, how he said something to her before vanishing into the night.
"You're fortunate to be on this side of the gateway; after all, humans are the real monsters of the world. You're far safer here than you were out there."
"Do you not like humans? But if not, why try to save me?" Kyouko asked herself quietly. She looked up at the sky as a few stars were seen behind the clouds.
'Hybrid… I wonder what kind of monster that is.'
She blinked then looked over to see two figures running towards the dorm buildings from the beaten path through the woods. As they approached Kyouko recognized the two and waved them over.
"Akua, Kahlua!" she called out. The two vampire sisters stopped and saw the human standing there, the sisters then running towards her with surprise.
"Kyouko? What are you doing here?" Kahlua asked looking at the human with wonder.
"You're ok, thank god, I thought I saw a girl like you on the news report being killed," Akua said in relief.
"What are you two doing here?" Kyouko asked looking between the two sisters.
"What are we doing here? What are you doing here? What happened at your old school?" Akua said grabbing the human by the shoulders and shaking her a bit.
"We saw Falla killing innocent humans on the news report, what happened?" Kahlua asked shaking her head. Kyouko looked at them then down with worry.
"Um, well…" she said softly.
"Well what? What happened?" Akua asked urgently. Kyouko looked at them worriedly then shook her head.
"It's a mess; this whole day is nothing but a complete mess. Come with me, we'll explain everything," she said before quickly leading them into the dorm building. They raced up the stairs and towards Rin's room, the three then rushing in with Falla and Rin looking over in surprise.
"Akua, Kahlua? What are you doing here?" Falla asked with a jump.
"Falla!" Akua yelled out, the vampire then lunging forward and grabbing the chronofly by the shoulders and throwing her against the wall. Falla watched with wide eyes as Akua held her against the wall by the shoulders as Kahlua's arm shifted into a bladed weapon, the vampire then holding it to the surprised girl's throat.
"What are you doing? Don't hurt her!" Rin cried out.
"What have you done Falla? You killed innocent humans, you started a war with the two worlds; why?" Akua yelled in anger.
"No I didn't, I tried to stop her! Really!" Falla cried out.
"Stop her? Stop who?" Kahlua demanded as she held her bladed arm towards the chronofly's throat.
"The other me!" Falla cried out. Akua and Kahlua just stared at her then glanced to each other.
"The other… you?" Kahlua asked puzzled.
"What are you taking about, why did you murder innocent humans? You were supposed to be setting an example of our desire for peace, not blood!" Akua yelled out with anger. She blinked then looked at the chronofly curiously.
"Wait… your eye," she said as she noticed the girl had two red eyes. Kahlua leaned closer and examined the girl curiously.
"Hold on, I thought she only had one. How come she has two now?" she asked tilting her head.
"Put her down, she's not the one that tried to kill me, really," Kyouko pleaded. The vampire sisters looked to her with wonder as Falla struggled in the vampire's grip.
"What? You mean, that… that was you on the news I saw? But then… how…" Akua said looking back to Falla.
"How did the school get destroyed, and how did you get your eye back?" Kahlua asked curiously.
"I'll explain everything, just put me down," Falla said nervously. Akua slowly let her go as Kahlua lowered her arm, the vampire's limb shifting back to normal as Falla regained herself.
"What are you two doing here anyway?" Falla asked as she straightened out her shirt and closed the door.
"We came here to bring Moka and Kokoa home, father wants them back from the academy until this crisis is resolved," Akua said while looking at the chronofly's two eyes curiously.
"What happened out there, why did we see you on the news report trying to kill Kyouko?" Kahlua asked looking to the human. Kyouko sighed and waved for them to sit down, the two sisters then sitting down next to Rin who was watching them all with concern. Falla and Kyouko explained everything that happened at their school, how they came against Jovian, Jacqueline, and the dark side of Falla, how the three souls from hell were destroyed once and for all by three monsters that were attending their school in disguise, and how they all came to the monster world to save Apoch and Astreal thanks to Falla's new boyfriend who also happened to cure Falla of her dementia and restore her eye. They also explained how they learned that Moka and the others had ventured out to try to bring Falla back before this dark monster from another world came after her, the same one that brought the three souls of hell out in the first place and who also had Luna now imprisoned in his world to be used as a breeder for his growing army. How Moka's group was captured at the scene of the school and blamed for the whole incident by the HDA. And they explained how they last heard on the news reports the HDA command center experiencing a monster breakout, however further details were unknown as the TV lost its signal to the human world when the gateways were completely sealed off. After the girls explained everything Akua and Kahlua were staring at them with shock.
"Moka and Kokoa are still out there? Moka's in the human world right now in the HDA's custody? They're still in the human world?" Akua cried out.
"I'm sure Ceal and the others got to her, they had to have gotten them out of that place," Falla said worriedly.
"Luna's been captured by this other monster? To breed more chronoflies?" Kahlua cried out shaking her head.
"Don't talk about that, I don't want to even think about what's happening to her!" Falla yelled out covering her ears and shutting her eyes. She could almost imagine the screams of her sister as she would be violated by shadowy figures, the red eyed chronofly feeling her heart ache as she struggled to retain hope that he sister could be saved before enduring such a dire fate. Kyouko held her worriedly then looked back to the vampire sisters.
"You need to do something, we have to open the gateways to let them back in here, we need them to go after Falla's sister," she said urgently. Akua and Kahlua looked at her with shock then down.
"We'll inform father right away, but I don't know if he'll be able to do anything at the moment. All the dark lords of the monster world have the realm sealed off until they can formulate their next move," Akua said worriedly.
"Moka, Kokoa, they're trapped in the human world… this is horrible," Kahlua said shakily. Akua shook her head then looked around in disbelief.
"I swear this school is cursed! They can't even go one day without all hell breaking loose, it's unbelievable!" she cried out.
"Never mind that, you need to do something! Moka's father is a dark lord; can't he open the gateway for them? Just for a little bit?" Falla pleaded with desperation. Akua and Kahlua shook their heads with remorse.
"He's going to be greatly troubled by this news, to say the very least, but he alone doesn't have the power to open the gateways. It would take all the dark lords of the monster world to reopen the realm to the human world. If only we had known they were there at the time, we would have gone to bring them back before the gateways were closed," Akua said looking down in frustration. She breathed out then stood up with Kahlua.
"We'll go inform father about her whereabouts. Our sisters are strong; surely they escaped the HDA and have fled to safe grounds, especially with all your friends going to help them. I just pray they stay hidden from the humans long enough for us to get to them," Akua said with concern.
"If we hear any news about them or the gateways being opened again we'll let you know. In the meantime stay here with the headmaster of the academy, and let us know if you hear anything," Kahlua said looking at the other girls. Falla nodded then glanced away.
"Um, there is one thing we saw here," she said looking back to Kyouko.
"Oh? What might that be?" Akua asked looking to the human. Kyouko looked down with a worried expression then back to the vampires.
"We saw a boy come through here, but…" she said hesitantly.
"But what?" Kahlua asked. Falla and Rin glanced to each other then back to Kyouko as the human continued.
"He had wings… and blades coming out of his arms," she said cautiously.
"This is the monster world Kyouko, I'm sure there are stranger creatures than that right next door to you in this very academy," Akua mused with a slight smile. Kyouko shook her head and looked at them with concern.
"No, you don't understand. His wings and blades… they… they looked just like…" she said before looking to Falla. The chronofly paused for a moment then glanced to the vampires.
"Like Alucard's," she said cautiously. Akua and Kahlua looked at her with surprise then slowly to each other.
"Yeah, it was like… flesh and bone… just mixed together. His wings and blades both seemed to be made of the same type of matter," Kyouko said thinking about the strange wings and blades on the mysterious boy.
"Wings like Alucard…" Akua said quietly.
"He came through here then just took off, we were wondering if either of you might know how he would have wings like that," Kyouko said curiously. Akua and Kahlua looked at each other with worry then down.
"It can't be," Kahlua said softly.
"What's wrong?" Falla asked.
"It can't be him, he should be dead," Akua said shaking her head.
"Who should be dead? You know who that guy was?" Falla asked. Akua looked to Falla then to Kyouko.
"Tell me, what color were his eyes?" she asked. Kyouko looked at her worriedly as she didn't like where this was going.
"They were dark green," she said cautiously. Akua looked down with frustration, seeming to be thinking about something very troubling.
"It's him sister, he's still alive," Kahlua said shaking her head. Kyouko looked at the vampires worriedly as Falla and Rin watched them closely.
"You know who that guy is?" Falla asked carefully. Akua nodded slowly as she kept looking down.
"Who is he?" Kyouko asked softly. Akua slowly looked over to her and showed a bit of concern.
"No! Get away!" a voice cried out in the darkened forest of the monster world. Running through the rotting wooded area a figure was franticly dashing around trees and over ditches as fast as he could, the monster having two bony legs and arms with a smaller skull that had four eyes. He had a unique pair of glasses on which held four lenses over the four eyes with a brass frame, the monster looking around franticly behind him while tree branches were overhead against the night sky. Behind him a shadowy silhouette was seen flying over the trees with a large wingspread.
"Keep away, no!" the bony monster cried out as he ran through the forest towards a small house by a swampy bog. The building was a stone brick one-story house with a slanted roof that had multiple metal antennas sticking out to one side and a stout chimney with colored smoke billowing out of it. The monster raced into his home and closed the door behind him. He locked it and put down a large metal breaker across it before rushing across his living space, which had a few tables with beakers and boiling chemicals that were letting off strangely colored fumes that billowed up towards the ventilation ducts. The frightened monster pushed books and papers off of his desk before grabbing a handgun from under the piles of research he had laid out, the monster then spinning around and watching the door with four nervous eyes. From the desk a unique insignia pin rolled off and bounced onto the floor, the old pin having two golden fox tails in a loop.
"This isn't happening, it can't be him," the monster said nervously.
The door blasted apart from a powerful strike down across it, the wooden and metal pieces of the door flying apart as the four eyed monster watched with terror. From the entryway a figure walked into the building, the dark green eyes of the intruder glaring with anger ahead of him. His metallic looking wings were extended out behind him while both his arms had wraith blades extended out.
"Get back!" the four eyed monster yelled as he fired a few rounds at the winged boy, the assailant using his blade to block a round before his wing swung around and blocked the others. The bullets ricocheted off and struck a bookshelf off to the side causing tatters of paper to fly about. The four eyed monster trembled as he fired off the rest of the rounds, with the winged boy walking towards him while his wing blocked every attack without a scratch.
"No… it can't be you… you're dead!" the monster said shaking his head with fright. The boy removed his shield before him and walked up to the trembling monster with a dark glare.
"What's wrong, aren't you glad to see me again?" the assailant asked in a cold tone.
"No… why are you here? What do you want?" the monster said nervously as he dropped the empty gun.
"What I want is revenge, plain and simple. Revenge against all those that took away my life," the boy said with hatred. He struck forward with one of his blades and pierced through the bony monster's chest. The monster coughed out blood and screamed as the boy lifted him and struck him against the wall with one arm.
"Dr. Jovona Litchwend, head of bioengineering division number six, and one of the engineers responsible for turning me into Fairy Tale's twisted freak. What I want is your life," the boy said with malice. The monster looked at him wearily as blood dripped from his mouth.
"Please… I didn't… have a choice. I had to follow… my orders," he coughed out as he was held up by the boy's wraith blade.
"Of course, you didn't have a choice. How convenient, just like I didn't have a choice. I didn't have a say in being taken away from my family, I didn't have a voice to object to being turned into a monster, I didn't have a choice either thanks to Fairy Tale!" the boy roared out with fury.
"But… we made you better… we made you… into something more," the monster coughed out weakly. The winged boy glared at him with fury as he drew his other arm back.
"What you made me into, is a monster. Tell me, are you satisfied with how I turned out? Are you happy to see your creation like this? Do I please your ego?" he yelled out. The monster trembled a bit and stared at him with fright.
"Please… have mercy," he said quietly.
"Mercy?" the boy growled with narrowed eyes. He then swiped his other arm forward and struck his blade through the skull of the monster with a slick crunch. The monster's legs and arms twitched then fell limp as his body was held up by two blades going through him into the wall.
"There will be no mercy for you or any of those that were part of that accursed organization. You thought you could hide from me? Human world, monster world, it makes no difference; I'll hunt you all down wherever you try to hide, I'll kill every last one of you that ever wore that insignia. I'll kill every Fairy Tale operative, scientist, and agent out there with my own hands, hands that they themselves turned into weapons of war!" he yelled out before he threw the dead monster's body over to the side, the corpse crashing into a table and knocking over several beakers. The table and body crashed down onto the ground as pink and green flames flared around from the chemicals breaking free. The boy growled furiously as he saw the corpse of the fallen monster ignite and start on fire, with the flames flaring around and catching onto the ceiling and walls.
"He's one of the test subjects that Fairy Tale used to experiment Alucard's blood on," Akua said cautiously.
"He went crazy with rage at what Fairy Tale did to him and tried to kill everyone when he transformed into a powerful monster, he went on a rampage killing everybody from Fairy Tale he could find," Kahlua said nervously. Kyouko, Falla, and Rin looked to each other worriedly then to Akua as the vampire shook her head.
"Dark green eyes, wings and blades like Alucard, that's him alright," Akua said with concern.
Outside the burning building the boy walked away with a cold glare in his eyes, his wings arching back a bit as he looked to the sky. He took off into the air with a powerful thrust from his wings, flying off over the forest as the building burst into colorful flames before collapsing into itself with smoke billowing upwards.
"I'll kill you all… every last one of you that thought they could run away after what you did to me," he said with hatred.
"He was supposedly killed a while ago by Fairy Tale enforcers, after he caused considerable damage to the company's assets. He earned quite a name for himself during his killing spree though, those in the organization referred to him as 'the Fairy Tale killer'," Akua said shaking her head.
"The Fairy Tale killer?" Kyouko asked curiously. Kahlua nodded and looked down worriedly.
"He targeted anyone who worked there, he was killing everybody who ever set foot in Fairy Tale after what the organization did to him," she said with regret.
"Last I heard about him though he was gunned down near the southern coast of Japan after a long and bloody chase, but it appears… that was incorrect," Akua said with a slight amount of frustration in her voice.
"Who is he?" Kyouko asked.
"What is he?" Falla asked urgently. Akua breathed out then looked to them with concern.
"His name is Talon Ryashen, he's a hybrid monster like Kahlua and myself are. He was one of the few like us that were transformed by Alucard's blood into a powerful monster. His body generated wings and wraith blades, both of them possessing the same durability and strength as our own permanent changes we received from the great destroyer's blood. His own physical strength increased as well as his healing rate, he became a real weapon of war," she explained, the girls looking at her with wonder.
"Hybrid. Wow, so he's part vampire like you are?" Kyouko asked. Akua shook her head as the girls watched her curiously.
"Then, if he's only part Alucard, what was he before?" Falla asked carefully.
Up in the sky Talon looked around with a cold glare at the horizon in front of him, the boy on a hunt for all those that were once responsible for his transformation into this twisted creation. Every single human or monster that ever worked for the evil organization was his target, the boy fueled by sheer hatred towards them for what they did to him. He looked to his arm as he slowly extended his wraith blade, watching the weapon as it shimmered slightly in the moonlight from above.
"I'll make them pay as the very weapon they turned me into… I'll make them pay for taking away my humanity."
