"NOOOOO!!" Ewan jumped off of the ledge and rushed to Hunter's limp body. He got into a crouching position and ripping and snarling noises started erupting from his chest. 'No, no he can't be dead. He's not dead. Ill get him out of here. He'll be fine.' Hunter wasnt the only thing on his mind. Revenge and...Alex. He wished she would stay away. It'd be too much if Requiem got to her too. Ewan wasn't like Hunter. He was younger, stronger and a lot more skilled (surprisingly). Working with Alex had been a good idea.
Requiem got up slowly and let out a villainous laugh. "Looks like you were....a little late, dog. Where is that girl i've been waiting for? Id like to make her an addition to my family. What do you think?" Ewan didnt take that very well. He growled more ferociously than ever. He'd lost his friend, partner and dad. He was not going to lose Alex.

Laurell stood back and watched with tearfilled eyes as Sam took Hunter into the last embrace he would ever feel in this life. she bit her lip and backed away slowly shaking her head gently "Bye Hunter" she whispered again as Sam drained him of life. a suddenly cry of pain caused her to look up as Ewan launched himself to Hunters side... prepared to defend him even in his death. She readied herself for any form of attack as Requiem spoke of adding the slayer to the family. she watched the proceedings with careful eyes slowly cirlcing round behind Ewan her knife drawn.

"She's right here!" A harsh voice said from behind Requiem. Alex plunged a knife into Requiem's back and forced it up, cutting in deep. She had soaked the knife in Holy Water so it would burn whichever vampire got it. She kicked Requiem in the back, driving the knife further in.
Sam turned to the slayer and grinned. "You think that you could defeat me with a knife made of holy water? You can't even hurt Requiem badly with that. It will hurt, but not as hard as this." She threw a punch at Alex, who flew feet away and landed hard on her back.

Ewan was torn. Guard Hunter's body, or protect Alex. He made the decision with hesitation. He locked eyes with Laurell and glared. He was going to pounce when he saw Alex hit the ground hard. He growled and ran at Requiem, knocking him across the warehouse and into a huge stack of wooden boxes. They collapsed on him and covered his entire body. 'That should take care of him, for a few minutes...'
Ewan leapt infront of Alex, his curled hands turning into sharp claws. "Leave her alone or prepare to face your death....." Ewan was secretly praying in his head that someone would show up and help them (haha jess). Every once in a while, he'd glance over at Laurell and scowl. She had caused Hunter's death.....he knew it. "Are you alright, Alex?" he said, keeping his eyes on Sam.

Laurell snarled as Ewan glared at her, she tossed her blade between her hands just waiting for his first move... which didnt come... instead mr Knight in shiny if not somewhat dented armour.. rushed off to help Alex. Laurell looked down at Hunter and shook her head, "At least your with Emma now" she sighed softly before seeing requim thrown into a stack of wooden boxes. she blurred as she rushed over to help him throwing wooden crates and planks everywhich way to get them off of Requiem, she could feel Ewans eyes on her every now and then, and turned to see what was happening. Sam it seemed was holding her own with the slayer... but if Ewan leapt at her then Laurell would have to aid Sam. the situation could grow easily out of control.

Alex got up quickly glancing at Ewan. "I'm fine." She wasn't lying totally but her back was throbbing in pain now. She stood in a fighting stance, ready to charge at Sam. Her hand felt in her pocket and grabbed tightly around something round and hard. She pulled out her steak, ready to use it on Sam, though she knew Sam was right; newborns were almost unstoppable. She didn't want to fight to the death, she didn't want to hurt Ewan anymore then he would be. She would fight long enough to get them out of there.
Suddenly, there was a bright light, bright enough to temporarily blind everyone. Out of a hole in space, a figure emerged. "Leave them alone!" The voice cried. It was a familiar voice, one Alex hadn't heard in a while. She couldn't remember who it belonged to, only that it was a female's voice.
A force more powerful then even Sam, flew at the vampires, knocking Sam and Laurell back a few feet. The figure of a girl could be seen after the light died down and then the girl turned her face to look at Ewan and Alex. It was Kris. "Run! Get back to the safety of her home!" She looked sternly at Alex and Ewan as if asking them to try and argue with her.
While the vampires were recovering from the strong blow, Alex grabbed Ewan's hand and pulled him out. She wasn't sure if he would be in a mood to talk. She had seen Hunter's body being held up by chains, the wounds on his body, and the final bite of death. Once they were a couple feet from the warehouse, safely in the forrest, Alex stopped and looked up at Ewan. "Are you okay?" She asked softly, though she already knew the answer.
Kris took hold of Hunter's arm, putting it around her shoulder, and teleported out of there. She brought them to her house, planning on keeping his body safe from further torment. She laid him on her bed and sat on the edge, staring at him.

Ewan was in a zombie like state, as he was pulled along by Alex, out of the warehouse and to the nearby forest. There weren't words to express how he felt. His friend had just been tortured and killed by vampires. One of which Hunter trusted very much. When Alex pulled him aside and asked if he was ok, he couldnt formulate a coherant response. He was afraid that if he even tried to speak, he'd be unable to control his emotions. Hunter was dead. Atleast Kris came back and helped them escape. Ewan was sure that Kris had taken care of Hunter's body. 'Ill kill them dad, I promise. They'll pay for what they've done.'
Ewan kept still and quiet, staring at the ground, his face twisted in pain. Not physical, of course. The sight of Hunter, chained up and tortured, was just too much. It kept playing over and over in Ewan's head. "I think.....we should leave," he said, his voice soft and hoarse.
Surprisingly, Requiem was roaring with laughter as Laurell lifted the crates off of him. He was enjoying himself, that was certain. Requiem got to his feet and kept laughing as Kris left disappeared with Hunter's body. "What an interesting night, eh girls? One down.....one to go, and then the slayer will be ours. She's nothing without her protectors. We shouldnt wait too long to strike again. We need to hit them while they're down. DOnt you agree?" he asked, walking over to the two girls and helping them stand. "In two nights time, we will strike again. Feed. Get your strength back. They wont escape us again. Oh and do find some more information on this....other accomplice. THe one that produced the great light. She could be a problem......or an friend."

Laurell struggled to her feet with Requiems help she felt stunned to say the least, Listening to Requiems idea of waiting two nights before attacking again she nodded. "Ewan's strong but this is going to knock him for 6" she said softly pushing her hair back from her eyes and staring over to where Hunters body had lain. she sighed and lowered her eyes from the spot fighting back a single tear, before looking back up and past Requiem "The new one tonight... the girl... She reeks of Death.... a collector of souls..... She walks where even the vampire dare not" she intoned softly swaying slightly, her new gift of sight was a cool gift but it sapped her energy completely, If she didnt feed soon then she would be of no use to anyone. Laurell turned and smiled at Requiem

Alex looked up at Ewan, a frown on her face, and nodded. She took his hand and gently guided him back to her house. Her father wouldn't object to him staying there for a couple of nights at least. Not after what had happened. They had a couple of guest rooms that Ewan could stay in and they weren't far from her room so she could check on him. She couldn't even believe what she had seen. Hunter had always been so strong and to see him hanging there, dead, it was heart wrenching.
Samantha stood up, shaking her head. "I highly doubt that one will be use to us. She even took him," she spat. Her eyes were on the spot where the chains hung, but Hunter was gone from it. She wasn't too pleased with that.
Kris turned away from Hunter's face. He wasn't dead, at least not yet, not until she touched him. She didn't want to though. She wanted to heal his wounds and make him wake up, but that wasn't how he wanted it. For as long as she had known Hunter, he had been living in misery, at least now he would be with who he wanted to. The light that she had produced, and the powerful force weren't some new powers she had. They were the work of someone else, someone who wanted to make sure that Hunter's body wasn't destroyed more then it had already been.
Slowly, her eyes gazed back into Hunter's peaceful face. "I'm sorry..." she whispered and took one of her gloves off. Her hand stretched out towards Hunter and she gently placed it on his cheek, that was it. He was gone, but he wouldn't be unhappy at least. She stroked his cheek once with her thumb then took her hand off, replacing the glove back over her fingers.

Requiem looked at the two girls, a triumphant smile on his face. "You two, go feed. We will rest all day and enjoy ourselves and then plan our attack. Slayer will be to busy with her depressed boyfriend. She wont see us coming." Requiem went into the back office of the warehouse and looked for paper and wood. He was going to start a warm fire for the girls.
Ewan stumbled through the streets, being pulled along by Alex. "Where are you taking me?" Just then, her house came into view. He didnt even have the energy to say 'Oh'. Almost everything had been taken from him in one night. Almost....everything. If they took Alex, he'd have no choice but to kill himself. Alex couldnt blame him for that. Atleast it was good to know that Kris had taken care of Hunter. She was kind and gentle.

Laurell watched as Requiem disappeared off to get wood for a fire... she wanted to feed right then. with a swift look over at Sam she motioned ofr her to follow her... she knew where they could get a good meal tonight. she led the way through the darkened warehouse and out into the alley... a guards shed was positioned at the end ... well lit and.... yes there were 3 guards on duty tonight, "Easy pickings" she told Sam as she misted towards the shed

Sam followed Laurell, though she wasn't that hungry. Hunter was very filling. She wanted to go and find someone else to play with, someone that would be worthy. Someone who wouldn't just die. She could've played with Hunter longer if Ewan and Alex hadn't found them.
Alex got Ewan into her house safely. As soon as her dad saw Ewan's face he backed off, letting Alex walk Ewan up to one of the spare bedrooms. She brought him over to the bed and sat him down. It was his own choice if he wanted to sleep or not.

Ewan sat on the bed obediently and layed down. He stared up at the ceiling, still bottling up all the anger and sadness he'd felt. After a very long five minutes, he broke the silence. "I cant believe this happened......he's dead. It wasnt just pretend this time. It wasnt just an injury. He left us......and for what?!" he said, his voice rising with anger. "Just because he wanted to see his precious Emma? He's so selfish! Doesnt he know the pain he's caused?!? Doesnt he know what ill have to do to avenge him? Kill. Ill never stop and its all because of him and his selfish ways!"

Laurell grinned at Sam her mouth a bloody mess... laurell just needed to feed but Sam well the girl was having a cracking time with these guards. laurell sat back and ran her finger nail over the guard on her laps cheek, his eyes were wide with terror and she smiled sweetly at him "shhh its ok" she hushed him as he started to whimper. "You can go to yourgrave knowing your the first decent thing i have eaten in weeks" she told him as she lowered her mouth to his tenderly kissing his lips before biting down hard. With a single wrench she ripped the guys lip from his mouth and drank deeply of the free flowing blood.

Alex frowned as Ewan went on his little rant. "Ewan, you know you'd do the same thing if you were in his position. He was being tortured, they would've killed him anyway. They chose to sooner rather then later. It's not his fault. He had no choice," She said softly. She sat down on the edge of the bed and looked down at Ewan's angry face.
Sam sat back, letting Laurell get the rest of the guards since she wasn't hungry anymore. Laurell was hungry so she would need them all, Sam would find someone else to play with.
