Chapter 4: The Vampire Guest
(Back in the mansion.)
Lord Victor was getting ready for dinner. He put on one of his elegant medieval clothes dignified by a man from the 16 century. He still has a tailor that makes some for him and some of his special guests to use on special occasions. The vampire lord walked down to the living room where some classic music of that period was playing. His mansion was decorated as the old castle back in Europe. He rarely does this for any local people, but tonight it's a special occasion for him. He needed a distraction from the hunter problem so he was going to enjoy the evening. After a few minutes in the living room hearing the music, he saw one of his servant women start to come down on the main stairs with the young girl that Wilson brought. The girl was walking behind the servant with a shy expression. The girl was also wearing a medieval dress that Victor told the woman to use on her so it magnified her beauty.
"Here is you companion for the evening… my lord," said the servants as soon as she got close to him. "I hope… she will please you eyes." She said before moving to the side so he can look at the girl.
Victor looks at the girl and smiles. "Leave us." he said while moving his hand. The woman bowed and walked away. Leaving the two of them in the living room. The vampire lord moves closer to the girl and grabs her hand. "My lady… is an honor to be in such a beautiful presence. " he said before kissing the top of her hand. The girl looked at him in a confused way. She did not remember much on how she got there or why she was dressing like that. But looking at the man in front of her made her mind confused.
"Who are you? And why am I here dressing like this?" asked the teen girl.
The vampire looked at her eyes. "Ahhh… you're brought here as my guest of honor. My name is Lord Victor Robinson the second… but you can call me Victor."
The girl looked at him with confusing eyes. "I don't remember how I got here… Is this some kind of play?" she said while looking at her dress and around the living room.
"No, this is not a play my darling… but you will be treated here like a princess. I'm you host here and you're my special guest." Another music starts to play and the vampire grabs the girl's hand again. "What is you name?" he said while escorting her toward the center of the living room. He didn't take his eyes away from hers.
"Eliza…" she said shyly. The girl doesn't know why, this man seems like a good person and something inside her tells her to trust him.
"Ahhhh… What a beautiful name." he said before moving her hand to his shoulder and grabbing her other one and moving into a dance position. He put his other hand on her waist and looked at her neck and upper chest. The dress shows a little of her breast and her curves. The girl has a great body and a beautiful face, but more important to him was her essence. Her hair was tied up in a bun on the back of her head so her whole neck was exposed. Victor exhales her essence from her body and the pure blood from her neck vane. "Do you know how to dance?"
The girl was a little confused about what was going on. But the presence of the man calmed her mind down. For some reason she felt safe in his arms and his voice was so seductive. "No… I never danced like this before." she said with more confidence now.
The vampire smiles at the innocent tone of her voice. "Don't worry my little princes… I will teach you how." After a few minutes new music starts. Ahhhh… I love this one… dancing is easy, just follow my lead." The vampire starts to move the girl around dancing at the rhythm of the music. After a minute the girl follows his lead and starts dancing with him. She was smiling and it was like a fantasy dream to her. "You are doing great… Eliza." he moved his head to her shoulder and test her essence again. "Dinner will be ready soon for both of us and after that… I will teach all you need to know to become a woman." he said softly. The girl let out a little moan as soon she felt his breath on her neck. The vampire feels her body on his arm and knows that soon she will be ready for him. No woman can't resist the enchanted of a vampire, especially a young one like her. David has such a test for younger girls… but he never enjoys the chase like he does.
(One hour later in another place)
Bill's black van was parked outside the port company perimeter. It was on the other side of Mr. Wilson warehouse they fought before. The place was closed to the general public and was well guarded. That is why Bill has to stay a little far from the entrance. He hid the van close to other warehouses that are close to the company dock. As Bill can't get closer, Ellie decides to go alone to infiltrate the place without being noticed. Bill wanted to go with her, but as he will help better as a technical support, Ellie told him to stay in the van. Soon Ellie was moving close to the company dock, she started to look for a way in.
Bill launches his drone to scan the area and be Ellie's eyes around the place. Soon it was on the air. Bill started to look for the boat, and checked how much the security was inside the dock. After a few minutes Ellie finds a way in through some closer building and stays on the roof of one of them. She looks at the guards to see if it was any vampire mouthing them, but so far they look like regular ones. She doesn't know if they're Wilson security guards or from the vampire. Ellie really hates the humans that work for vampires, she doesn't know why they do that.
"Bill, I'm in… I can see the ship, but the dock is full of guards… can find a better way to get close to the ship?"
"On it." said Bill on her com. He guided the drone around the dock until he find something that could help. "Okay… I find you a way into the ship without them seeing you. There is a crank on the other side of the dock you can go there and use it to get into the deck of the ship from the other side."
Ellie looked to the other side and saw the crank. "Okay… I see it." Ellie quickly moves on the roof and goes toward the crank.. Okay I'm on my way… I will call you when I get there." 10 minutes later Ellie was on top of the crank and looking down at the ship. "Okay I'm in position."
"Good… the guards outside are just watching the main gate and the ship entrance. I don't see anyone close to you position so you have a go." Bill move the drone closer to her position.
Ellie took out her grabbing gun and pointed toward the ship deck. Soon the cable was secure on her side; she aims for a top part of the ship and shoots. The hook got attached to the mast that go up on the deck. Soon the thing was secure, she spoke with Bill again. "Okay… I'm going in."
"Be careful… Girl," said Bill, a little worried.
"Hey… You know me…" she said before sliding down the cable toward the ship. The Court Express was a cargo ship big enough to carry a lot of shipment.
"Yeah… that is why I want you to be careful." he added while moving his drone to another position. "So far no vampire outside." he said before Ellie got to the mast.
Ellie disengaged the cable from her belt and looked down. She saw two guards walking on the deck below her. "Okay Bill, I will contact you as soon as I get inside." she whispered to him. Soon the guard moved to the other side on the deck. Ellie jumped down without making a sound. She saw another guard in the distance coming her way so she quickly moved away from her current position and stayed hiding until the guard passed her. Ellie moves silently until she finds a door that takes her inside the ship. Soon Ellie was in and she closed the door behind her. Now she needs to find where they have the prisoner. "Bill… I'm inside… Do you have a way to find out where they can be holding the prisoners?"
Bill uses the drone to start scanning the ship. "The drone is taking a scan of the ship… give me five minutes." he said as he worked on his computer.
"You have two… I have some company here," she said as soon as she saw two guards walking her way. Ellie hides behind a wall and waits for them to get closer. Soon they walk into view. Ellie grabs the arm of one of them and pulls him toward the corridor where she was hiding and throws him toward the wall. She quickly kicks the guard on the head, sending to the floor. The other one goes for his gun, but Ellie quickly draws one of her knives and throws it toward him and stabs the guard on his throat. As the guard falls down bleeding, the other one starts to get up and tries to grab Ellie. But she saw him in time and moved toward him fast. The man start to send some punches toward her and tried to hit her, but Ellie was faster and after a few exchanged hits, Ellie managed to grab the man's neck and head from behind and break it. "Shit!" she said before letting go of him and let him fall down to the floor. "Tell me… that… you finish." she said, taking some breaths.
"Are you okay?" asked Bill.
"Yeah… don't worry, I already take care of the two guards… the only problem is that they will soon know that someone is here when those two do not answer their com."
"Yeah… you need to move fast now." said Bill while looking at his laptop. "Okay… there are two cargo holds on that ship. One is in the middle of the ship that is for big containers I guess… and the other one is smaller and is in the stern of the ship. I think there must be there prisoners."
"Okay I will head that way and make sure that the prisoners are here. As soon as I find them, call the police and let them know." she said before moving the other dead guard into the corridor and moving away. She doesn't know if the police are all corrupted but she was hoping that that was not the case. Ten minutes later Ellie was getting close to the small cargo area, she only encountered two more guards on her way there and took care of them too. That was strange because they have a lot of guards outside and not too many inside. Bill told her that most of the guards he scans are on the dock and only a few on the ship deck. So why do they only put a few guards can't detect the heat from a vampire, so Ellie doesn't know how many can be inside.
Ellie and Bill know that they can't get the prisoners out all by themself. So the plan is to make sure they're here, send some pictures to the police and make them come to the dock. Then they will use the distraction when the police come and kill the vampire there. The police will take care of the rest as soon they go aboard the ship and rescue the prisoner. They know that the vampire has been moving people out of the US, but didn't know how many until she opened the door of the cargo hold and saw them.
"Bill… I think we will have a bigger problem here." said Ellie as she walked into the place. As Ellie moved, she saw a lot of tanks… maybe hundreds of them with people inside. The place was big enough to hold at least 200 of those cylindrical tanks there. Jesus Christ… Ellie moves closer to one of them and sees a naked woman inside. She had only a breath mask covering her mouth and nose as she was floating in some kind of green goo. Soon Ellie touches the crystal of the cylindrical tank, she feels her hand getting cold. Ellie can't believe that they treat people like meat. She can see that they're alive, and ready to be shipped away, but where? "Bill… you can't believe what I'm seeing right now… Bill do you copy?" she asked a few more times but all she can hear is static now. Shit!... This does not look good. She said to herself. Something was wrong and she can feel it. But she needed to do something, so she started to look around for a console or computer that can help her to release these people.
Ellie moved around the cylindrical tanks until she saw a console in the middle of the room. Ellie quickly walks toward the thing, and soon she gets closer, She starts to work on the panel. The monitor turns on and she can see some of the information of the tanks running there. "Bill… I found the prisoners… they're hundreds of them here. They are inside some kind of tanks that keep them alive." Ellie touches the com on her ear but she only hear static again. "Bill… are there?" The lights around the place start to get on.
"Well, well… well. What do we have here?" said a man coming inside the room in a catwalk up from her. "Sorry my dear… but if you're trying to call you partner… I don't think he can't hear you." Ellie looked up and saw the man on one of the walls of the cargo hole.
"So I bet that you're in charge here?" said Ellie looking at him.
"You can say that. Our master has the suspicion that you and you hunter partners will show up here sooner or later. So he sent us here to make sure that any of you get out alive. But what we didn't believe was for you to come into our trap this soon."
Vampires. Said Ellie to herself as she looked at him and a few others on his side. At that moment two doors open on the side of the cargo hold and more guards go inside with guns in hand. Ellie knew that this could be a trap since the beginning, but she didn't expect that there would be so many. Soon they all go inside, Ellie sees that a group of vampires came through one of the doors. "I don't know when all of you are going to learn. I don't know where you're going to ship those people. But I can tell you that this ship is never going to leave this port," Say Ellie while looking at the Vampire leader.
Some of the guards and vampires start laughing. "I can see that you have some courage to come here. You look so young that I can't believe that you're the one that has been killing us for the last few weeks… I have some order from my master to bring you a live so if you surrender now I will take you to him so he can torture you."
"I pass… but don't worry I'm planning to visit you master soon enough, but first I have some business here. And if you think that I came alone you are mistaken." said Ellie trying to find a better way to turn this around. Fighting a few guards and vampires is one thing, but they are too many for her to handle it alone. And also she can't make a big fight here with all those people around on the tanks, she can't risk their life. Somehow she wishes Joel was here to help her… he has more experience in situations like this than her.
"If you're talking about the one you have outside… I already sent some of my people to take care of him… but what I really want to know is where is the old man that travels with you? The one that killed David… and destroyed his clan?" he asked.
Ha, they thought that Joel killed David…Ellie thought that that was a little offended, but that can give her an advantage. They don't really know her or know where Joel is. "I don't need to tell you shit… he is probably around the ship killing a lot of your guards right now and planting some booms. And for the one outside… I know he can take care of himself… he probably called the police already so they will be here before this ship departs. So why not surrender and let all these people go?" Some of the vampires laugh again.
The group of vampires moves forward and stops in front of the guard. "Enough of this… let us take her out and send her head to our master… he will be pleased if we stop her here now." said one of them with a furious tone.
"You will not do such a thing… the master wants her alive… also we need to find where the old man is." he looked down at the group of vampires there. "But you can make her surfer if she resisted… but not kill her, we need her to talk…" he said. "Also be careful here, I don't want the cargo to get damaged." The vampire leader turned his head and looked at one of his guards. "Call the guards out outside and tell them that they can kill her partner. He is somewhere outside the dock. The rest here go and check the ship. I want the old man to be found; he could not be far from here."
Ellie looks at the guards and the vampires start moving toward her. She was hoping that Bill had already called the police. She was not happy about that, but it was the better way to stop this ship without killing the people inside. All she has to do is borrow some time. She doesn't know why, but she starts to think of Joel at that moment.
(Flashback)
"Joel, I don't know why you brought me here… to the middle of nowhere." asked Ellie as Joel guided her into an old farm barn. "I thought you wanted to take some vacation time out of the US so what are we doing in Kansas?"
Yeah, Joel has taken Bill and Ellie to an old farm his has in Kansas. After the fight with David, Joel needs Ellie to be prepared for what is coming. She needs more training and rest after that and so does him. The training will be good for both of them. David was a powerful vampire but Joel knows that they're worse than him and he needs to prepare Ellie for that.
"You need to focus you mind and soul if you want to stop the vampires… I know that Bill has done a great job teaching you all he knows, but you need more discipline… and tactics. David was a powerful vampire, but he is not alone on this. If you want to continue with this we need to work on getting you ready for a real fight." said Joel with a serious tone.
Ellie turns around and looks at him. "So you bring us here for training? Bill told me all he knows and even that I can see you have more experience on this… what I really need is some answer. The ones you own me and still don't answer them."
"See… that is the first problem you have. You need to focus you energy on the present. Yeah I know that you want some answer after what he did to you, but he is dead and you are not. This war is not over yet and you need to be prepared for it."
Ellie wants to continue arguing, but with Joel she never wins… he always finds a way to avoid her question, but maybe this is a good place to make him talk… she just needs to find the way to do it. "Okay… et said that you're right… What more can you teach me that I don't already know? I already know so many form to kill a vampire. What else do I need?"
"You think that you know it all, but you're still young… you still have a lot to learn." he said while walking into the barn. If you've been fighting vampires as long as I do… you understand." He walked toward the middle of the barn. And stop there with his back toward Ellie.
"That is one of the problems with this… I don't know anything about you. Not where you come from or how long you have been doing this… nothing. I have been hunting vampires for a few years now so what more can you teach me? Yeah I am grateful for helping me to avenge my father, but I was the one to kill David… not you."
Joel put his hand on his back and turned around. "Yeah you did… but at what cost?"
"I don't know what you mean. He is dead and we;re not… well that is another question you didn't answer. How do you survive that fight?"
Joel ignored her question again. "Yes… you kill David at the end… and for that you think that you're better? Do you think that you're so powerful that you can take any vampire by yourself?
"Maybe… you may have more experience hunting vampires, but I prove that I have what I need to take them down."
Joel just lowered his head and shook it. "You think that David is the only one out there? Yes he was a pure blood vampire and a powerful one. And yes, you managed to kill him… but that doesn't make you as powerful as you think. You may kill him, but you also let him get to you. He is still controlling you and you need to learn how to let go of that."
"What do you mean?"
"You tell me… how you're sleeping since that fight? Since he tortured you and almost made you his?" Joel knows that he is pushing the girl too hard, but she needs to understand.
Ellie expression changed drastically. Yeah David kill her father when she was young and he torture her body and mind when he capture her. But she finds the way to stop him and avenge her father. Yeah if it wasn't for Joel she doesn't know what would have happened, there. But he doesn't understand or need to know that. But he is right about David being in her mind since Jackson.
"Yeah I have had some bad dreams, but those are nothing… and we hunt a few more vampires after that. So that doesn't stop me from doing my job. It has been two months since we cleaned Jackson. So forget about David… what I really want to know is how you knew my father and all the secrets you're holding from me."
"You don't need to know anything about all that… at least not until you're ready for it… and I can see that you're not. So why can I tell you anything?"
"Because I earn them…" she said furiously. David stabs you with his sword… and it just takes you a few days to recover… from that. So how is that even possible? You said that you have been hunting vampires for a long time… about as much as I see you, you move like them. So why don't you tell me why?"
"Do you think that I'm one of them? If I was a vampire, did I be able to walk in the sunlight or do things that a normal human can do?"
Ellie looks at him frustrated. "I don't know.. That is the problem… so stop talking in riddles and tell me who you really are?"
"If you want to know who I'm… you will need to defeat me first. Only then will you be ready for the truth." he said, moving closer to one of the barn walls and grabbing a wooden long stick. "You can attack me with this… if you hit me with it at least once, I will tell you all you want to now. But If I touch you five times you will let me teach you without any complaint or questions."
Ellie smiles at that. "You have a deal, old man… so prepare to tell me everything… and I mean everything." Joel throws the wooden stick at her. Ellie grabs it and looks at him. "Prepare yourself to talk…" Ellie grabs the stick like a sword with her two hands and quickly moves fast to attack Joel. But to her surprise Joel moves to the side and easily dodge her attack.
"You need to move faster than that… kiddo." said Joel while turning around and touching Ellie on her back. "That is one point for me."
"Arrrrr!" Ellie screams before turning around and getting ready for her next attack. "You think you're so smart do you?" she said with a grim face.
"I don't think I'm all smart… just smarter than you." he said before seeing Ellie run toward him again. Ellie starts to swim the stick at Joel as soon as she goes closer, but Joel moves side to side dodging all her swim. "You need to control you anger… if you want to hit me."
"Don't worry… you can move this fast forever." Ellie continues her attack on him, but can't get any hit on him. Joel continued talking while Ellie was trying to hit him, but after a few more swims, Ellie started to get frustrated. Jesus… How can he move like that?
Ellie tried to move behind him, but Joel managed to move behind her first and push her forward, almost making her fall to the ground. "That is two." he said while moving away from her.
Ellie was losing her patient. "Why don't you do that with David… and let him stab you." Joel was trying to break her concentration, but two can play that game.
"You think that I could be faster and more powerful than David?" he said while putting his hand on his back.
"He was pure blood, wasn't he? But see you move, you could be… So why did you let him stab you?" Ellie is mad at him because she knows that he is hiding something from her. But that doesn't change the way she feels when David stabs him. She thought that he was going to die that day and that made her feel worried. What would happen if Joel did die that day? She knows that they're not together for that long, but she is starting to feel something for him.
"Yes… David was a powerful vampire with great ambition, but that doesn't mean that he was the more powerful one." he said while Elle recovered her breasts after try to hit him again. "I can tell you a little about vampires if you're going to continue with this. Vampires have been around for centuries, even thousands of years. You're able to kill him, because he seems too distracted about you, but you need to let all that go. There are more vampires worse than him, so you need to be prepared."
After a few minutes, Ellie start to swim the stick at Joel with all her anger. "If they're more vampires like him… why they not came out? And how do you know how long they've been around?"
"Study… " he said before dodging another attack. I don't know how much Bill told you about the vampires… but I can tell you that more of what he know about them "
"He told me plenty… but more importantly how to kill them… because that is what I was training for." She tries to hit Joel again, but Joel manages to touch her without any effort. Ellie turns around and looks at him with anger. "My father gave his life fighting the vampires just to make sure that one day we will be able to kill them all."
"I'm not sure if that will be possible, but at least we can try… but since your father is not here any more. That job falls on you… so what are you going to do about it?" he said with a calm tone.
"Don't talk about my father… you don't know him." said Ellie before Joel disappears in front of her and David's image appears in front of her. "You bastard… how do you come back? But no matter, I will just kill you again…"
Ellie moves fast toward him with all her fury. But at the last minute Joel moves around her and grabs her from behind, "It's over… Ellie… you can't continue like this. You're letting him control you… and you need to let him go."
"AAAAAARRRRR!" Ellie screams with all her force.
"Shh… is okay Ellie… just let it go out. Anger is controlling you emotion, you need to control yourself." After a minute Ellie drops the stick and starts to cry. Joel turns her around and hugs her close to him. "I know that it still hurts… But you're strong. David is gone, but you fight is not over yet… you need to be stronger."
Ellie hugged him tight, baring her face on his chest. "I don't know if I can do this… Joel… Is to hard."
"I know baby girl… But I know that you can do anything if you put you mind to it." Joel said before they moved apart. "You have what it takes… you just need to believe in yourself and the people around you."
(A week later.)
Bill was using the old house to work on his computer and new gadgets. He likes the time free, but he knows that they need to get back to business soon. This is not the vacation they talk about, but it was close. They need a little break from killing vampires. Bill was glad that Joel was willing to teach Ellie a few things and distracted her mind from David. Even as he was dead he was still hunting Ellie's mind. Joel was happy to teach Ellie and make her ready before they go back to work. David was not the only vampire lord in the USA and they needed to find the rest. As Bill used the house, Joel was using the barn for their practice. Bill was glad that Joel has a place like this with not one around. So they could do what they needed to do without anybody interrupting them. Also was a good place to hide from the police as they were wanted now.
Ellie was now in the middle of the barn with her eyes covered and a katana in hand. Joel gave her a few meditation lessons, but now he was teaching her how to use a katana more efficiently.
"I don't understand the meaning of this." Ellie protests. "Why do I have to practice with a sword when I have guns and other weapons more practical to kill a vampire than this."
"You need to spend you combat skills," said Joel, moving around her. "Guns are useful… but they get out of bullets fast… knives are great for close and distant combat, but a sword can give you better protection against multiple enemies."
"You said that because you like to use one." she said with a little smile on her face. "I don't know why."
Joel smiles, as Ellie can't see his face. "I just think that a sword is a good weapon against vampires. Now let me remind you that you agree to do this without question… so stop whining and let's start."
"You're so weird sometimes you know that, do you?" Joel moved the stick he was using as a sword and hit Ellie on her butt. "Hey…" Ellie protests again as she moves away from where she thinks he is.
"You need to be focused… in you surrender." then hit her again. You eyes can betray you, but you senses do not. Use it as a part of you body as much as the katana… feel it not only in you hands, but as part of you body."
Ellie swims her sword and misses. She feels her butt get hitting again. "Fuck… I think you're enjoying this too much." Ellie tries to find where he is, but every time she misses him, he hits her on the butt.
"You need to clear your mind… use your other senses…" he said while moving around her.
"What are you now? Some kind of Jedi Master or something?... Ahhhh ouch." she yells as she gets hit again.
"More concentration and less talking." He was going to hit her again, but Ellie moved away in time. "Good… but you leave yourself too open." he said before using the stick to hit her legs from behind and make her fall down. Ellie quickly removes the clot from her eyes and looks at him. He was standing in front of her with the stick on his shoulder. "What are you doing? The lesson is not over yet."
"It will be over soon." She swings the sword at him from the ground, but Joel moves back and dodge it. That gives Ellie the time to get up. "You like to hit girls' buttocks when they're blinded… hmm. Why not try to hit me there when I can see you fully?"
"That is not what this exercise is about." he said calmly.
"You know what I think." she said while moving slowly around him. "That you like my butt cheek… and you just use this as an excuse to touch them…" Ellie doesn't know why she said that to him, but her face starts to turn red. Ellie doesn't know why sometimes she feels some weird things when he is close to her. But that didn't stop her. She ran toward him and attacked with all her fury. "Let's see what you do against a real sword."she starts to attack Joel, a little afraid to hit him, but Joel doesn't have any problem dodging her. One hour later both of them were laying in the middle of the barn looking at the ceiling.
"Did you know why you can't hit me?" asked Joel.
"Because you're an old pervert that only use this practice to touch my ass?" she said with a smile.
Joel just rolled his eyes at the comment. "No, you can't hit me because you're focusing on your anger and not on your enemy… I know what David does to you, and not just the physical part. You need to let him go… you father was avenged and now you need to focus you mind on what is coming."
Ellie sat up and looked at Joel. "David was talking about the future of the vampires and that I was their savior… I'm a vampire hunter just like my father before me. So I don't understand what he means… or what you are talking about."
Joel sat up, but didn't look at her. Vampires have been around for centuries… Their plan is just to take control of this world and use people as food. They live a long life so they use that to gain power from all that time. But some of them are afraid of something worse than them. Someone dark will wake up soon from his longer sleep and bring chaos to this world."
"And who is that?"
"Someone that no one wants to see again… no even the vampires." Joel stood up and extend his hand toward her. "C'mon… you need to continue you practice."
Joel and Ellie spend a whole week practicing. Not only with the sword but also in the combat hand to hand and in her agility to move, But also with the meditation so she can get more control of her mind. Joel teaches her how to use the katana and focus her strength on her enemy and stops to think about David. Joel uses that to help her and in a few months she knows more about herself, but nothing about Joel. He keeps her distracted and that works for a while. That helped her to stop the nightmares, but one day Joel was gone without telling her anything. That hurt her at first, but she didn't let that stop her mission.
(End of the flashback and back to the ship)
Ellie was now surrendered by her enemies, but that is not going to stop her. Joel taught her a good lesson on how to handle this, so she is not going to stop now. Sometimes something changes in your favor and she is hoping that that happens tonight.
"Get her… but I want her alive." said the leader of the vampire from about. As soon the guard and vampires start to move closer to her, the vampire leader speaks again.."Be careful down there I don't want the cargo to get damaged."
Ellie moves her hand toward her back and draws her katana and grabs it with her two hands and goes ready to fight. "You hear you boss boys… try not to destroy the tanks." Some of the guards stay behind pointing their weapons at her, but the others take out their sword and knife before moving forward toward her. "C'mon… I hope you can give me a good fight… I really need one."
"Arrrghhh." all of the guards and vampires yell as they move towards Ellie with weapons in hands. But Ellie just smiles at them. "Yeah… this is more like it."
