Nix was freaked. Mikhial didn't even recognize his sent. Nix started racking through his brain trying to think of the words that would bind and hold Mikhial. Nix started to chant the ancient vampire spell that would render Mikhial imobal as a group of twenty some odd people came down the stairs. Nix noticed an angry energy emiting from the stiarway."Crap" Nix thought. If I completly finish the spell she will kill him. Nix stoped parlized unable to think his brain shut off completly in panic.

At the sound of the angered voice, Mikhial stopped in his killing and cocked his head to one side. As if puzzled by her angerment or rather why he hadn't gotten that one yet. He then hunkered down closer to the ground as if getting ready to charge at her. Licking his lips as he in took the smell of fear and death that was all around him. Then he noticed something eals. It was the sent of the vampire that had threatened to take his meal earlier. He glanced over his shoulder, his piercing eyes giving Nix the stare down.

"What well it be?" Mikhial sent loudly to the both of them, his sending voice harsh and raspy like that of a growling dog. "The living dead or the soon to be dead?" He added as he stepped back just enough so to easily keep an eye on both of them at the same time. "I can take you both at the same time.... or I can take one at a time while the other gets a head start for more help." He sent and then followed it up with a bone chilling howl, before continuing his watch on both of them.

Araceli was slightly taken aback as the words came at her. They were angry it seemed and wild. Realizing that she was not the only one that he had seemingly addressed, she glanced to her left and noticed a second figure in the entranceway, emitting an aura not that of a human. "Has to be Vampire with his "living dead" comment." She smirked slightly.

"I don't know who you are, but if this is your friend you need to get a grip on him." Too many of the characters that she had met tonight seemed to be connected somehow so she only assumed that these two were as well seeing this other being would have no other reason to enter the church's grounds.

Seeing that this Were was hellbent on attacking, Araceli shifted her weight and tightened her grip on her sword as she prepared herself in case either decided to rush her.

Darious reached the castle and flew right through the wall of it straight in the direction of Vexous.
"MY LADY!" he roared as he searched until he found her with a human. her eyes red fangs bearing and she was covered in blood, her dress was thorn to pieces.
He but stared. "wow my lady, you...you look terrible!" shaking his head he continued.
"i believe that there is something going on in te village, My Lady i meet a young women her name is Araceli, we believe that people are being kidnapped from the village for some unknown purpose."

Vexous grinned showing off more of her fangs, "well well, this is starting to go somewhere."

Alex's body froze. Her eyes wide with the intense fear that was rushing through her body and her mind. All she could do was stand there and stare, with a pained expression on her face, as Acheron was apprehended by the lady vampire. ALEX! YOU NEED TO GET OUT OF HERE! MOVE! She yelled to herself trying with every fiber of her body to get out of there but to no avail. She could barely muster up the courage to answer the lady's question. "I...I j-just w-wanted to s-see if the s-stories were true...I..." She stuttered as her body resisted her reply but with that small amount of courage she had mustered up she was able to take a couple steps backward in order to increase the distance between her and the vampire.

Sakura had flown back with the birds and when they roosted, she flew to what used to be her room. Memories mingled in the air, both good and bad. Her fingers lightly traced a blood stain on the wall...her blood stain. Her hand lightly went to her neck, remembering the deep bites her previous master would give. Then she looked to a darker spot that the wall was cracked. That had been the blow that killed her. With a sigh she floated over to the window seat, her favorite spot, and sat there. Sakura closed her eyes and went into a sleep-like state.

"MIKHIAL"Nix sent as strong as he could in wolf "Calm your self NOW!Or I will use force!"Nix strugled trying to speak wolf hopefully everything came out the way he intended it to. "Leave the lady alone if you want to dance with someone come outside and I will be your partner." Nix growled trying to not let the anxiety show in his voice. "I am truely sorry my Lady, he is ussually such a gental man..er..wolf." Nix said to Araceli trying to make light of the situation. "What do you say Mikhial of the Blood Moon Pack?" Nix sent tauntingly to Mikhial trying to get Mikhial out of the church so no one else would get hurt.

"So you do know each other than..." She paused and glanced back at the other man. "I'm truly sorry, but your friend will have to answer to some sort of justice for slaughtering innocent elders." She shook her head slowly. "He needs to be brought forward to some sort of justice whether it be now in his crazed state or be it later when he can actually be fully aware of the actions that he has taken to." Her tone was icy as she spoke. Araceli was seething with anger, yet kept her demeanor as calm as she could at the moment. She had to remind herself that she needed to keep a level head if this Were attacked her at some point. Humans never fought well when their emotions were driving them, they always tended to get sloppy in their skill.

Mikhial watched back and forth as the human called out to the vamp. However payin little attention to eithers words until the won spoke lycan. It was broken and not vary fluent, but Mikhial understood him perfectly. "So then you wish to dance with I?" He snarled as he started to shift into his half form. Temperarly convulsing do to the change before standing tall on his now reformed legs hind legs. Being much taller and more muscular now then in either of his forms. He had the best attributes of both side, the human and the wolf.

"I say we shall dance, until you inevitability fall. Your already a dead man, so tell me what well become of you when I'm finished ripping you limb from limb?!" Mikhial said now speaking broken English as he strode his way closer to Nix. "Ladies first." He said a he motioned with his head toward the door and for Nix to go first.

Then Mikhial heard the humans voice again. "If you wish to speak instead of running, insect, then you best do it with your blade instead of that weak voice of yours, before it fails you." Now becoming distracted with the human again instead of following Nix outside. "Come and I'll take you both!! Let the moon be filled with blood tonight, for that is why my pack was named so!" He snarled as he turned about on a dime and lashed out at Nix with a clawed hand.

Rasul caught wind of more wolf blood, but amoungst it was a smell he knew all too well. Werewolf. It was that freak! That half-blood! He had been lying! Rasul lowered his head to hide the anger that rippled up from his very core, sending shudders down his spine. "That flee-bitten, murderous..." He slipped into his native Russian. But even that did not suffice to express his rage so he was reduced to inhuman snarling and howling, quivering as if in extreme pain. He was in too much grief to hold back his dislike for the lycan any longer. He let out one last shrill roar before ending it with "Forget Vexous! I'll make that dog eat his own guts!!" His eyes glowed a deep red from underneath his brow. For a moment it seemed he could do nothing but shake. Then, out of the trees burst a huge, pulsating cloud of black. As it drew nearer the cloud could be seen to be made up of little bats. They swirled and danced around their master, crying out to him in their own little voices. He had lost his control, had forgotten the kind of person he had tried to be, had forgotten who he was, where he was, everything. All he knew was blood was going to be spilt tonight. He had given in to the insanity. He began stalking, almost with a drunken, stumbling gate toward the cathedral, the source of the lycan's scent.

Vexous looked between the Alex and Darious. "Darious cant you see i'm busy!" rolling her eyes she grabbed the human by the arm and started to move her towards a stair case.
"you what to see the castle, dont worry" she narrowed her eyes on the girl. "you'll have plenty of time, because my dear your never leaving this place." she grinned licking her lips.
"come i do believe it's time to get you a custom to your new living areas."

Darious looked away as Vexous moved away with the girl. dam i hate seeing her like that, but she is a vampire after all. that 's when he noticed that she had a light scar on her arm, which was slowly healing. oh i see, she's lost to much blood and can’t control herself right now. shaking his head he floated through the nearest wall to outside. "Dam it What Do I Do!!!!!, i'm not a vampire so i have no idea what going on" he was more frustrated with himself for being death than anything else. "Dam it Dam it Dam it!!!."

Sakura's eyes fluttered open as she heard someone moaning loudly outside. She poked her head out of the window to see Darious pacing worriedly. "Hey! Would you keep it down? I'm trying to Rest In Peace." She scoffed lightly at her own little joke and covered her yawn. She blinked repeatedly, waking up and feeling much better. With that, she went through the window and floated down to him. "What's wrong now?"

Nix doged easily. Well at least he is not trying too hard yet.Nix thought to himself. Nix started to circle Mikhial once out side. Nix was carefull to make it look like he was having a harder time dogeing the swipes and kicks then he really was."Silly wolf have you really forgot why your pack was given its name." Nix snareled in wolf pretending to have a hard time breathing. The whole time he was weaving the spell that would bind Mikhial. "Have you forgotten so easily the vampires your pac swore to protect and serve." Nix sent along with childhod memories of a 'young' Nix and Mikhial playing outside Nix's family manssion. Nix hated to use the spell for it would not only imobalize Mikhial it would also use up the last of Nix's strength leaving them both valnurable to anyone or anything.

Darious looked up to see Sakura. "oh sorry i didn't know you were there, besides we're ghosts we're not meant to be quiet." he laughed to himself, but did a little bow as she floated down to him. "Sorry if i woke you, i was just damming myself for being dead you know the drill." he struggled. "vexous is no help at the moment and she's lost a lota blood so you know how she gets." there was a short bite of silence between them before he continued. "i mean i know she's a kind heart person and all but she does battle with the beast inside who's only hungry for blood..... i'm kinda glad i'm not a vamp, if you know what i mean." he shivered a little and shrugged is shoulders.
"i was trying to tell her that some villagers have been going missing on a full moon, but she just said she was busy." shaking his head he sighed. "maybe i should tell someone else who may actually help."

"Ah..." Sakura nodded, understanding completely and shivering herself. "Yea, she made me come with. I missed the battle but had to help the bird mutants." She looked up to the tower where they had roosted. "There's also the recent killing of the horses she has to deal with. Maybe you should tell Acheron, he seemed to be the only one who could really get through to her..." she suggested while looking around.

Mikhial continued to circle about with Nix unaweare as to what he was doing. However getting frustrated with frequent misses and narrow swipes, Mikhial started to pick up his speed in his attacks.

"Don't patronize me!!" Mikhial growled when Nix questioned him about the pack. "The first of our kind to serve you were mere slaves." Mikhial barked at Nix. "Only over time..." Mikhial started to stuter as the images were flooding into his mind. "Only over time did we decided to make that.... " Mikhial said his vioce growing more quite as he started to recall the images in his mind.

Then just as it seemed that the memories were working something went wrong. A particularly bad memory had resurfaced to Mikhial's mind causing his rage to blind him again. A single tear rolled down from Mikhials wild wolfen eyes before he blinked it away. And with that he charged at Nix even more aggressively then he had before. "Your the reason Kira's gone!!!" Mikhial howled as he prepared himself to pounce apoun Nix.

"Insect." She muttered softly, and let out a small bark of a laugh. "Then you are a mere dog in my eyes child of the moon." She returned at him.

As the two males began to fight, Araceli was slightly taken aback that this were was so viciously attacking another who seemed to have been sworn to protect him. That was how it had seemed to her from the bits and pieces she was getting from them both verbally. Watching the Were hesitate then began to ready himself to pounce onto the Vampire she felt it was time for her to intervene, though she knew fully that a Vampire could handle themselves.

Running swiftly down the remainder of the stairs with her blade held low and to her right side. Now not to far from the Were, Araceli was placed in between the Vampire and him. She swept her blade from it's position on the floor upwards to the ceiling at him meaning to catch him across the chest.

"Move you STUPID human!" Nix yelled more out of fear for the human then anger he shoved her away.Nix cringed as Mikhial brought up Kira and in that moment of hesitation one of Mikhials blows hit hard across Nix's chest Shnit Nix thought of all the things to bring up and now of all times. "Kira died a hero she died doing her duty an honerable deth! Not like the one you will have if you keep up this non sence!" Nix practically screamed his emotions rubbed raw and his anger starting to show. Nix had started to cry but he didn't waste any of his energy on wipeing the tears from his face. Mikhial's attacks were coming faster. "How dare you blame me if you wouldn't have ran off niether me nor Kira would have ben out that night! If its anyones fault its yours! You have always let your pride and emotions rule you!" Nix screamed chocking back tears as the memory re serficed in his own mind. The look on Kira's face as she lay in his arms just befor she took her last breath. Nix realized there was no other way to get through to Mikhial. Nix transformed into his true vampire form. His face twisted grotesckly his jaw almost seemed to unhing to allow for his long sharp fangs. His eyes started to glow and two large leathery bat shaped wings tore through his back. When Nix changed it wasn't like your average vampire. For he was born a vampire not changed into one

Darious froze at the mention of Acheron "OH SHIT!"
he ran straight back through the wall and knelt down beside Acheron.
"how the hell could i forget that she just left him here!" kneeling over him he placed his head near Ach's heart, "he's still alive ...........for now, but i cant move him."
he sat back and sighed. "even with my powers i would deal more damage then good!"
Acheron lie in an uncomfortable potion with blood seeping from the bite mark Vexous had left on his neck. "she didn't even heal his neck!"

Araceli gritted her teeth as she hit the opposite wall hard. Seeing that this was no place for her and no help apparently, Araceli sheathed her sword quickly wincing as her left shoulder burned. "Damn Vampires and their strength." She thought as a pain ripped through under her left shoulder blade. She knew he was just doing them both good by getting her out of there. She pressed her right hand against her left shoulder to help keep it close so the pain would be a a little easier to deal with as she ran to check on the other bodies to see if anyone survived.

Moving quickly through the bodies, she found that none were moving. None of them had any breath left in their bodies. Choking back the tears that were beginning to force themselves out, she swallowed her anger and pain as best as she could and glanced back out to where the two unnatural beings were fighting each other.

Moving back to the altar at the front of the main cathedral's room, Araceli moved back one of the heavy tapestries and pushed open a secret opening and slipped inside. After she pushed the door closed behind her, she made her way quickly through the dark tunnel still armed with what she had and in her sleeping clothes. It was dark, but a straight shot out of the cathedral and into the graveyard behind it once again in the open night.

Mikhial didn't slow down in his pace as the human stepped in his way. He had foughten bigger and badder even when it came to human hunters. He was preparing to slide under her blow and come up strait up at her face to rip out her throat. Then the vampire had jumped in the way, but it made little difference to Mikhial at this point and he let his grasp swing at would have been Nix's head.

"No, you lie!" Mikhial howled in response to what Nix was saying. Kira died a fouls death trying to up hold the pointless task of being a guardian dragon in a place over ran by Slayers. You can't fight against what you protect and you cant protect what you fight. He was a fool and so were you at the time!! I was doing my job!!" Mikhial roared as he continued to slash out at both Nix and Araceli. It didn't matter who he hurt at this point. Which ever got in front of him he would throw at. "The job I was highered to do... by your... family and their stupid hunting games!!" Mikhial bellowed at Nix, his animal side taking over more and more as his anger grew. He wasn't concerned much with Nix's transformation. He was reaching the end of his stamina and in thus being more reckless. At any rate he would die of self exhaustion before he would at Nix or Araceli hands.

'Vexous!' Josephine cried, worried about the path the vampire's thoughts had followed, 'If it is blood you desire, I have three unbloodied creatures for you to dine on!' She circled, worried, finally she landed near the castle doors, changing back and throwing two sharks over her shoulders, leaving the other one sitting on the ground. She ran through the castle halls, finally coming to a stop in front of Vexous and cutting open the shark, handing it to Vexous.


"Rasul, is something wrong?" Tania watched as a cloud of bats covered him. Rasul stumbled away, soon leaving her sight. "You won't be so hard to kill will you pet." come a low growl from the other side of the woods. "Maybe losing one of their own will prove that a pack can't be killed." "Wh-Who's there?" Tania stuttered, seeing only a small shadow moving out of the woods. She walked backward a few steps, and stumbled over a pothole in the dirt. "Your DEATH!" roared the Beta, clamping down on her upraised arm. Tania screamed, a scream that echoed through Telepathy, causing a minor to severe headache, depending on how much they were using Telepathy


Josephine and the birds gave an answering groan of pain, the flock rising from the rafters to fly out their pain. 'What. Is. Happening.' she placed her hand against her forehead, trying not to pass out.

(Hmm...I think this is good for now...)

Racing through the graveyard to get away from the cathedral, she'd have to come back later and deal with the mutilated bodies of the order then. A painful yet necessary decision at the moment to flee than stay and try to deal with the blood lusting Were and strangely transformed Vampire. It was no place for her.

As she made it through the graveyard and to the gate, she was stricken down with the worst pain in her head as a scream ripped through her thoughts. "What is this?!" She yelled as she dropped to her knees and clutched her own head. This was a far worse pain than she had ever experienced.

Nix finished his transformation barely dodgeing Mikhials wreckless swings."Enough"Nix sent angerly. He started to chant the last verse of the spell out loud. "And to the one you protect you should always bow..." but just like that Nix felt his strength leave him. He hit the ground hard gasping for air. The spell had ben too much. Nix couldn't complete it. The last thing he saw as he looked up was Mikhial returning to his human form or at least for the most part. "Kira.. he loved you..you two could of ran off together..I didn't care..you know that.." Nix sent as his eyes closed loosing all sence of the world around him except for a sharp persistent headache.

(do as either of you wish)

Vexous made a decussated face. "Animal blood is foul, i cant believe people drink that!." glancing at the human. "i like human blood better, it's so much sweater." licking her lips she winked at Alex.
"with all these people interrupting us, we'll never get anywhere" she said with a sigh.
that’s when the scream came. rolling her eyes "she needs to learn how to control that, she may attract other things that can hear her"
Placing an arm around the human neck she sighed again. "this is getting boring, i need to find something to entertain me!"
