Laurell sank down the wall and watched as Hunter stomped over to ewan, "Hes not going to hurt her yet" she mumbled as she rubbed at her shoulder, her mind was working as fast as she could make it, she looked around the hallway before turning back to watch Hunter and Ewan try to force their way into the room. She closed her eyes, hoping that Requiem would forgive her for what she was about to do. She wished she could have stayed and helped but she had damaged things enough. With a small sigh she shifted her weight slightly slipping her feet under her readying herself to stand and run, "Sorry Hunter" she whispered as she suddenly pushed herself up and away from the wall and blurring herself with speed ran away from the Slayers room, she would head home await Requiem there and if he didnt come then she would know the worse had happened

[[sorry I had to babysit all day >.0 awesome thread I must say, lol]]
Alex's eyes fluttered open, wondering what all the noise was about. Out of the blurry vision she had from just waking up, she could see a figure standing near her bed. At first she thought it was Ewan, that is until she heard Ewan's voice outside and the loud bangs from him trying to push his way in. Lucky for her, she was mostly healed, just really weak. She sat up in bed, a fresh wave of fear flowing through her. She jumped off the bed and backed away from the figure slowly.
"Who are you?" She demanded, surprised that her voice had some authority in it. From the guy's pale complexion and the hunger burning in his eyes she could only guess he was a vampire. "FUCK!" She thought. There were no stakes in the room, not even something wooden. In every room of the hospital everything was made from metal, it was more durable. As her eyes adjusted to her surroundings she noticed that the guy had piled things in front of the door, blocking Ewan and Hunter from coming in. Things weren't looking so good for her already.

Requiem smirked and took a few cautious steps forward. He had the slayer right where he wanted her. "My name is Requiem and you are the little slayer i've been dying to meet." He licked his lips and reached forward, ready to grab his prey. His eyes were a deep and dark red. Like blood. He didnt think that the 'playing' thing would last long. "Im going to take you to my warehouse and we're going to have one hell of a time.....you and me. By the time your pets get there, it'll be too late. For you and for them."
Just then the door burst open and the objects blocking the door, flew across the room. Requiem grabbed Alex, and pulled her to his chest. He kept his mouth close to her neck, as a weapon. Ewan froze by the door, his eyes wide with fear. How could he save her? "Let her go" he growled ferociously. Requiem simply laughed, his right hand sliding down the side of her body. "I dont think so"

Alex couldn't really comprehend what was happening, a side effect from her lack of sleep. All she could tell was Ewan standing in front of her and a warm breath hitting her neck. She wasn't afraid, surprisingly. In her mind, plan after plan were forming, each one unlikely as the next. "I can't just stand here and let him take me." She told herself. She had one chance, and she hoped that he wouldn't be able to dodge because that would just make him angry.
While Requiem was preoccupied by Ewan's plea to let her go, she brought her fist back as hard as she could. A swell of triumph and relief swam through her as she felt her hand connect with something hard, Requiem's face. She spun around, taking the split second she had to get out of his grip, and punched him again, though not as hard as usual. Her strength wasn't up to full and she was still tired from her mere hour of sleep.
She pulled off the sling, not needing it anymore, or at least that's what she told herself. "Don't touch me." She spat at Requiem. She took a couple of steps back until she could feel Ewan's presence near her.

Before Requiem could react, Ewan pulled Alex against his chest and held her in a warm embrace. Even though there was a deadly vampire in the room, trying to kill the slayer, Ewan couldnt help but smile. She was safe in his arms and he would do whatever it took to keep her there. Once he'd recovered from the punching-which didnt take very long at all- he took a few steps forward. On his way towards the two, Requiem grabbed the edge of the hospital bed and broke it off, leaving him with a long.....silver....pole. "Hand over the girl and your life may be spared. For now," Ewan started to pull Alex backward, towards the door. But with everystep they took, Requiem copied it and brought himself closer. "Come to me slayer.....you want him to be safe dont you? He'll just get killed protecting you.....come with me," he said in a soft, whisper like tone. "Dont listen to him Alex. He's trying to trick you..." Ewan whispered in her ear.

Alex stared at the pole in Requiem's hand, trying to decide what to do. Ewan's voice didn't comfort her. "No he's not...he won't hesitate to put that thing through you." She replied in a low voice. She had a real tough delema on her hands. If she didn't go to Requiem then he would drive the silver pole right through Ewan, killing him, but if she went with him then she would be killed. Out of the corner of her eye she saw a small metal table that had been used to hold the door closed. "Ewan, when I say to, I want you to run," She ordered.
As quickly as she could, she picked up the metal table and flung it at Requiem, hitting him. It hadn't been thrown hard but it was sure to hurt and knock him backwards. "Run!" She said loudly and pulled Ewan out the door. She dragged him with her down the hall, trying to get him in front of her just in case Requiem came with the pole.

Requiem was knocked backward into the corner of the room by the metal table. It hadnt hurt in the least, and Requiem was getting just a little bit irritated with the slayer girl and her terrible attempts to kill him. Ewan followed wilingly and halfway down the hall, picked her up in his arms. Within a few seconds, Ewan was out the door and heading towards the park. Just on the other side was the forest. If he could make it there, they'd be fine. "Please, hold on Alex. And whatever you do, dont sacrifice yourself for me. Im not worth it. Your the slayer....do your job," he said in a stressed yet gentle tone. Requiem was close and trailing just behind them. An evil grin covered his face. 'This is turning out to be more fun than i'd expected,' he thought.

Alex closed her eyes for a brief second and when she opened them they were already at the park. "My job is to save people and kill monsters. If you are in danger I will do everything I can to protect you." She said simply. She wasn't going to have Ewan argue with her that technically he wasn't a person or he could take care of himself. She cared for him a lot and if sacrificing herself would save Ewan then she would do it.

Ewan shook his back and forth, but didnt say another word about it. No need to argue in such a delicate situation. They were almost there! Almost to safety when Requiem suddenly appeared in front of them and slammed his fist into Ewan's face. Ewan went flying backward, Alex still in his iron grasp and hit the ground hard, leaving a large dent in the grass. He got up and let Alex down. He looked down at her and smiled. Underneath that smile was concern. This could be his last moment with her. "I love you Alex. Im sorry it had to be this way. I just wanted you to know how much I cared....if this was the end." Ewan didnt think he had to mention that Requiem was unlike any creature he'd even seen. There was no way he could win. Damien was nothing compared to this.
Requiem took a few steps forward, but gave them some space for their little end of the world speeches. He started to reach into his pocket, pulling out a loaded silver gun.

Alex was lucky that Ewan was still holding onto her when he hit the ground. He saved her from getting hurt. She looked up at him as he talk and she could tell he was scared. "Don't talk like this is the end. He is--" She stopped herself when she noticed Requiem pulling out something. A gun. "Oh my god." She thought. She knew what was coming.

Ewan glanced over at his enemy and actual fear crossed his face. His eyes were glazed. The fact that he was about to be filled with silver didnt scare him. It was the fact that after he was down, Requiem would take Alex and harm her. 'Can I move fast enough to dodge it? No, what if he tries to shoot her? He'd do it just to keep me in one place for a few moments. Her life is worth more than mine,'
Requiem aimed the gun carefully and didnt bother with an evil speech. He was sure that he'd see Ewan again. He'd trick the girl though, and make her think that her pet was dead. 'Perfect plan. The more upset the slayer, the easier it'll be to torture her physically and emmotionally,' he thought.
Requiem pulled on the trigger and emptied the gun in a matter of seconds. Ewan didnt have time to block them all and some were headed towards Alex. He stood infront of her and took 3/4 of them. The silver started to burn and he could already feel his systems shutting down. He had to rip out the bullets before it was too late. Unfortunatly, before he could, Requiem grabbed him by the shirt and threw into a tree, away from Alex. Requiem grabbed the slayer by the arms and smirked. "You're coming with me little one"

Alex closed her eyes tightly and waited for the bullets to hit her, but they never did. She felt something cold and hard grab onto her and her eyes shot open. Her eyes turned to see Ewan, at the bottom of a tree, multiple holes in him. "EWAN!" She shouted, her eyes glistening with tears. She turned to Requiem and struggled, trying to get free of his tight grasp. "Get off of me!" She snapped but she knew it was no good. Without all her strength she was no match for him, but she wasn't going to give up. She wanted people to know she didn't give up, that she fought until the end.

Laurell ran beside Hunter for a while then hearing the Slayer scream Ewans name she sped up her movements becoming a blur as she raced to the park. She Stoopped at the base of a tree, Ewans crumpled body at her feet. her eyes scanned the park and she saw requiem holding the Slayer against his body. cautiously she approached "Requiem" she said softly her eyes shining in the light, she peered over her shoulder looking for Hunter, before turning back to Requiem and Alex. "You killed him?" she asked him softly her eyes flashing over the Slayer before turning back to Ewans body. "You didnt say you was going to kill him.... only her" she stated softly, before smiling at him "Oh well one less to worry about... can i taste her" she asked leaning in close to the slayers neck before whispering in a soft still voice that only travelled as far as her ear, "Helps coming" she lifted her head flashing her tongue out against the slayers skin before smiling at Requiem. "she tastes of terror" she said sweetly to him.

Ewan hadnt heard Laurell's warning and freaked out when he saw her 'taste' Alex. He growled loudly, and ended in a whimper. The pain was intense. He reached into the wounds and tried to pull them out. They burned his fingertips, making the process a lot harder.
Requiem smiled at his Laurell and kept a firm grip on the slayer. "Stop slayer. Ther's no chance of your pets coming to save you. Just accept fate." He kissed Laurell quickly and continued, "No, the dog isnt dead...yet. Im hoping some of the silver penetrated his heart. Actually....I want him to come and try to save her. Then she can watch a real death." Requiem lowered his mouth to Alex's and kissed her roughly, biting her lips, almost breaking the skin.
Hunter stayed in the trees and ran over to Ewan. "Dont worry....stay calm. We will rescue her. Stay quiet!" he whispered, trying to help Ewan remove the bullets.

Alex was stunned when Requiem kissed her but after he bit her the anger flowed into her, making the fear vanish. She pulled away from him and growled, spitting in his face. "Do that again and I will rip those lips off of your face." She snapped. It wasn't anything more then a threat since Requiem's hold on her was unbreakable, at least for her when she was in this state. She had heard Laurell's words but wasn't sure if she should believe her. She could be giving Alex false hope on purpose just to crush it herself.
