Valencia sat on her bike nervously. A matte black helmet concealed her identity but she knew as soon as Pierce caught her scent it wouldn't matter.

She watched the entrance of the exclusive club with a keen eye from the end of the street.

She cursed, knowing Pierce wouldn't bite from this distance. Even if she presented herself alone.

She revved her engine and swiftly pulled in front of the side doors. She threw her helmet onto the back and stomped forward.

This was risky.

Valencia gnawed on her lip as she gripped her knife with white knuckles. She dragged the blade across her palm and squeezed the blood onto the ground.

She hopped back onto her bike and waited. She revved her engine and just as the doors burst open she was off.

She sneered as the vampire woman practically flew to her black fucking Jaguar XJ.

^^fast fucking car

"Fuck!" Valencia gritted as she began weaving between cars.

"One of the fasted god damn cars on the planet, for what?!" Valencia watched Pierce catch up in her rear view mirror.

Val veered off into an alleyway but assured that Pierce could see where she was going.

"Let's go, let's go, let's go," she muttered to herself as she spotted a worn plank of plywood propped against a garbage bin.

She revved her engine before flying up the ramp.

She unholstered her gun while flying over the two lanes of traffic, shooting the roof of the Jaguar.

Her bike hit the pavement roughly and she turned sharply to stop.

Everyone besides her and Pierce had veered off the road. They faced one another.

Valencia held up her still bleeding palm, "this what you want?"

Pierce stuck her head out the window, "among other things." Even though her tone was calm Val could see the bloodlust written all over her face.

Good. That means she had her attention.

Elora and Demetrius stood next to each other, scoping out a warehouse.

Behind them was the Witch Doctor and Elio.

"How'd you know he'd be here?" Elora asked with a stern tone.

"I know everything," Doc smiled.

Elio spoke up, "Alright the plan is to have Elora opens a portal inside. We scope out the area incognito find out what we're dealing with, find out where they're holding Kai. If we can take care of Victor on the way that's a plus."

Elora hummed with her jaw crooked. Demetrius leaned down to kiss her ear, "it's alright baby."

"I'll be alright when he's safe."

She knelt and pressed her hand to the ground, they watched her closely.

"Elora please don't be irrational-"

The portal opened to reveal a hallway. Elora opened the portal on the ceiling of their hall.

Before anyone could stop her she stuck her head in. Her white hair fell around her and she saw two armed guards on either side of the hall.

Her eyes glowed and the three men heard the grotesque snapping of their necks. They all winced.

Elora gripped the edge of the portal where dirt melded into cool tile of the ceiling.

She flipped herself over into the hall and landed gracefully. Demetrius was quick to follow, gripped her hand before leading her towards a scent he caught.

Their companions followed closely behind. All four of them were efficient in taking out anyone in their way. Elora shoved the door open, following her brothers scent.

Elora's breath hitched when she burst through to the warehouse main room, seeing an obnoxious amount of guards. Victor in the middle of them.

"Long time no see!" He cheered as if they were old friends.

Elora quickly held up her middle fingers.

"You took my boy," Elora grunted and her eyes scanned the room. She saw her brother strung up in chains, bloodied.

Demetri snarled as he saw what she saw.

"Are you sure he's your boy still? I heard he's got a pretty mate now." Victor glanced back at Kai who was trying to regain consciousness.

"Too bad my buddy Pierce is taking her for herself." Even out of it, Kai snarled and yanked at his binds. The chains rattled loudly.

Elio looked over the soldiers he'd gathered, most of them a misfit match of people. Elves, wolves, and some warlocks backed him. If he had to guess there were about fifty of them for the four of them.

Doc only grinned besides the Hound. "I've got the warlocks if you get the wolves?"

Elio looked at him as he cracked his knuckles.

"Why do I get the elves?" Elora scoffed making the two men glance at her.

"Do you want to switch or-?"

"Enough!" Victor shouted as he grew fed up with their nonsense.

"You got him baby?" Elora nodded towards Victor. She knew how much it'll mean to Demetri to avenge his parents personally.

Demetri nodded slowly, looking down at her and giving her a reassuring glance.

"Don't just sit there!" Victor growled and suddenly they were all going head to head.

Elora used her magic, blowing back a couple elves in Demetri's way.

Behind her one swung a sword at her. With one glowing hand she halted it, she snatched it swiftly and cut the man's head off.

She shoved the dead body away, slashing wildly.

Elio shifted, barreling through wolves. He took there jugulars into his mouth, tearing through their flesh. Flames flew from his hands as he tore.

Doc was snickering as he jumped through portals, he dragged a couple warp locks through. He closed the portal as he got half of their body through.

Doc frowned as the blood of their now
split in half bodies sprayed his suit.

Victor, who was watching his soldiers get slaughtered cursed.

He hadn't even wanted Malakai here, Pierce went and fucked everything up in her bloodlust.

The sound of dragging chains sounded, his wild eyes darted over to Demetri who had chosen his weapon.

He spun the chain slowly, gaining traction while pinning Victor with a vicious glare.

The distance between them was rapidly disappearing as Demetri began to snarl.

Victor sprinted towards the Malakai, ready to use him as leverage but Demetri whipped the chain.

Victor cried out of the metal crashed into his face, sending him flying back.

Elora used the distracted to run towards her brother, the Elves were easily taken care of.

She bared her teeth as she looked at the chains stringing him up. She dragged the heavy sword up and swung it up. The clang rung in her ears, it didn't break.

She let out a cry as she swung again, beating down on the restraints. Elora kept swinging as everyone was still fighting.

Kai groaned and yanked, trying to help her.

Victor tried to stand, gaining his bearing but suddenly hands gripped him from behind.

He snarled and fought but was swiftly held in a full nelson, fully immobile.

His eyes darted up in fear, Demetri stalking forward. He dropped the chain, eyeing his prey.

Demetrius huffed as he had rage brewing in him, built up over years. Years of never knowing his parents killers. Now he faced someone who was apart of it.

"So this is the end of the line, old friend?" Victor gave him a bloody smile.

"Fuck you," Demetri gripped the Warlocks head. Without hesitation he roared, ripping it off gruesomely.

Demetri panted tossing it away over his shoulder.

The four stood in the room, a massacre painting the walls and floor.

A loud sound caught their attention, the three men looking over to see a weak Malakai crashing into Elora. She cried loudly as she caught him.

They watched the young Hound tighten his arms around her.

"Valencia-" He croaked. "Where?"

Everyone looked over at each other. He wouldn't like the second half of their plan.
