A/N Okay, okay I am so sorry for the late late update. I wasn't sure whether or not to continue on with this… But, in the end I decided to do it. Once again to the people who were waiting, I can't tell you how sorry I am. Will you forgive me? Please?

"Ah, finally the hunt is over."

"Who's there? Show yourself!" Mayonaka shouted bravely into the shadows; showing no fear whatsoever.

"Mayonaka? What's going on?" Komuro asked worriedly as he stuck his head out of the humvee's window.

"Get back inside." Mayonaka said calmly without so much as a glance in his direction.

"Show yourself!" Mayonaka shouted once again.

"You vampires are as impatient as ever." A voice sounded out in all directions as three men came into sight.

"Who are you and what do you want?"

"Who we are is irrelevant and what we want is you, of course."

"You're after my blood." Mayonaka said this more as a statement than a question.

"As expected. You vampires are as quick-witted as ever. And what's this?" The suspicious man gestured towards the humvee. "Is this your dinner?" He asked, indicating Komuro and the rest of the gang.

"No. If I was going to drink their blood, I would have done so already." Mayonaka said calmly; speaking the truth.

"Oh boss! I know who this is!" The small man on the left finally made his presence known.

"Hmm?" The one in the middle answered.

"This vampire is the heir to the Ruby throne. She's Princess Mayonaka. Mayonaka Ruby. She's a disgrace to the vampire kingdom. She refuses to drink human blood and only drinks the blood of animals. Her father often tried to change her, but it was to no avail."

"Hmm… This will be easy then." The one in the middle answered. He appeared to be the boss.

"Why's that then boss?" The one on the right asked.

"If she only drinks animal blood then her strength isn't even half that of a normal vampire. Boys, things just got a whole lot easier." The boss smiled mischievously his face was half draped in shadow.

"I may not be as strong as my parents, but I'm still strong enough to defeat you."

The man in the middle laughed evilly. "That's what you think. You see, we don't plan on defeating you with pure, brute strength. We have other tricks up our sleeves. Boys, take care of the people in the car." The man snapped his fingers and immediately the two men on either side of him rushed towards the humvee.

"Stop!" Mayonaka took up a defensive position in front of the humvee. "Leave the humans out of this! They have nothing to do with this!"

"Mayonaka…" Komuro muttered.

"Move out of the way, vampire." The men chuckled evilly."

"No. You move. IF you don't then I will have no choice but to end your lives."

"She's bluffing. Pay no attention to her." The boss of the trio of men chuckled.

"You think I'm bluffing?" Mayonaka asked as she slammed the head of the man nearest to her straight into the ground. In one smooth move Mayonaka then broke the second man's arms and legs before throwing him down.

"Do you still think I'm bluffing?" Mayonaka asked calmly.

"It's not over yet. I still have some tricks." He reached into his pocket and pulled out a large, powerful - looking silver gun. "You know what this is? It's a gun loaded with anti-vampire bullets. They seek their targets out with blood sensing technology. You can't escape."

"Shit…" Mayonaka muttered knowing that there was no way out.

"This is the end for you." He said as he pulled the trigger multiple times. The bullets soared through the air before hitting their target. Mayonaka screeched in pain as her arms and legs were soon littered with bullet holes.

"Oh? I'm surprised you're still able to stand up, vampire."

Mayonaka swayed slightly from side to side before catching her balance again. "Why should you be surprised? I'm not like other vampires."

"Well…" The man leered evilly before pulling a huge syringe out of his shoulder bag. "This… should kill you whether you're a normal vampire or not."

"Well… I'll give you this; that's one hell of a dirty trick." Mayonaka muttered.

"So, I take it an explanation really isn't necessary. But, I'll tell you anyway. This syringe is full to the brim with a very dangerous substance to creatures like you. It's full of Holy water."

"I know that already." Mayonaka sighed tiredly.

"Instead of explaining how dangerous it is, I think it would be better just to show you." With a sharp flick of his wrist he sent the syringe straight into Mayonaka's chest. Straight into her heart.

Mayonaka pulled out the syringe and observed it in disgust. "How dare you attempt to use such a dangerous trick!" Mayonaka carefully wiped the empty needle clean. And with deliberate slowness, walked towards the vampire slayer.

"I think this belongs to you." She said as she brought it up to the same level as his right eye.

"H-How can you still be alive?" He muttered in fear; his true colours finally visible.

"I told you already. Tricks like these only work properly if used on vampires who only drink human blood. They don't work anywhere near as well when they are used on animal - blood drinkers." Mayonaka spoke calmly keeping eye contact the whole time.

"B-But you should still be dead…"

"Maybe it's you who should be dead?" Mayonaka stabbed the needle straight into his eye. "I seriously think that that belongs to you."

"Why you little bitch!" The man staggered backwards; feeling very faint.

Anger flashed through Mayonaka's eyes. "What did you just call me?"

"You heard me."

Mayonaka kneed him hard between the legs and sent him down to the ground.

"I know I heard you. I just wanted to see if you had the balls to say it again - obviously not." Mayonaka looked at his weakened sorry state once more, before sending him straight into the sea with one flawless kick.

Mayonaka staggered and swayed from side to side. The bullets were slowly taking effect. "Crap…" Mayonaka muttered as she tried to take the bullets out. It's no use… There's too many of them… Mayonaka swayed once again before crashing to the floor.

"Mayonaka!" Komuro shouted as he charged out.

"Mayonaka, stay with us!" Shizuka came running to Mayonaka's side.

"I'll be okay… If you can get the bullets out…" She muttered out slowly, before her vision blackened.

A/N: Well there you go. It probably wasn't worth such a long wait… But, I did it anyway. And, I'm not too sure whether to continue this or not… I mean, I have some ideas, but I really lack the motivation to continue this right now. What do you guys think? Should I continue, or not?
