European Arc, Chapter 106: An Explaination Is Needed

The scene changed to Seth who was filing some company related paperwork, but then a coffee mug was placed in front of his desk.

Seth looked to see Armand.

Armand: Some coffee to keep you going and fall asleep, ya night owl.

Seth: Thanks Armand. You know you've been really good help recently.

Armand: All in the days work boss, here how about I fill ya in for a bit?

He grabbed the piece of paper from Seth to read it fastly and to himself, then his eyes widened.

Armand: What is a KSI?

Seth: Oh, he's a famous celebrity from the UK, he offered my hunting company a brand deal.

Armand: Brand deal? And what is this "Prime"?

Seth: Oh, it's a range of sports drinks or drink mixes that he made with Logan Paul, another celebrity.

Armand: Apparently they're kinda stumbling on sales at the moment here on this paper. *looks at Seth* And you're gonna accept this?

Seth: Not yet.

Armand: Have you at least tried what Prime is like?

Seth: No, but I will soon.

Armand: I don't know Seth, this seems like not a good investment if you ask me.

Seth: You think so? *yawns*

Armand: Mhm. Tell ya what, what if we go and taste this "sports drink", to see what it's like. If it's good then we'll think about it. If it tastes horrendously then I advise you to not take this risk. You wanna turn your hunting company into a sports drink company or something? Because if you did I would not sign up for something like this.

Seth: Fair point. You know what, I can deal with the papers later. Let's go out and get ourselves some Prime.

Armand: Atta boy.

The two high five each other.

The scene changed to Dario, Tayova, Dzunukwa, Marcus and Sofia leaving the airport in Orlando, meaning they have returned from Belgium.

Dario: Tay...you feeling better now sweetie?

Tay: A bit....you won't die on me are you?

Dario: Never ever, I survived a lot of shit in the past.

Dzunukwa: Good cause you're going to explain all of that to me and the others when we get home.

Marcus: Agreed, I am quite interested how you reacted to that red deer and that flask he had.

Dario: Listen, we can talk about this when we get home and-

???: Talk about how you got yourself into trouble with an infection?

They all recognized that voice. Once they turned around, they saw all of the girls and Rakezh. They were all either angry or sad at the fact they didn't know up until now.

Maple being the one in front to face Dario with a stern look on her face. Dario was shocked and bewildered.

Dario: Huh, what are you-

Maple: No need to hide it, we all know.

Mythal: Who hurt you? I'll kill them!

Hurricane: Rakezh told us.

Dario: *to Rakezh* Dude, I was going to tell them!

Rakezh: Hate to be the bearer of bad news but knowing you, I doubted so I told them about the experience I had in Spain and Norway and how you nearly died.

Drusilla: And I must admit, me and Luna too explained our side to the story.

Hel: I too added along my experience in Norway.

Scruffy: Sorry babe but that thing that attacked me and Gemini was something I couldn't forget.

Dario: I-

Hurricane: What were you thinking?! How could you not tell us this, you're out there risking your life to fight some satanic wolf while we sat here not knowing the possibility of you dying.

Dario: Listen-

Peekon: No Dario Vasilov. YOU listen to us! *got close to his face*

Dario was surprised at the anger, but he didn't blame them to be honest.

Dzunukwa: You can probably guess what happened when we went to Belgium.

Francisca: Considering how Tayova looks like shit, I won't bother.

Snowflake: I'm honestly disappointed at you, Dario.

Dario: Girls can we discuss all of this home? People are watching us right now.

Snowgara: Who cares, you broke our trusts.

Dario turns to Marcus who shrugged.

Marcus: Sorry buddy, you have a lot to learn.

Sofia could only nod.

Okami: *approaches Dario* Ye lying liddle shite, wait until I-

Akilla: *jumped in Dario's defense* Ladies ladies! Let's not jump on him in ferocity, Dario does have a point. We shouldn't be seen like this.

Leo: The dhole's right, we're making clowns of ourselves more than we already are. *giggled*

Sprinter: *to Leo* Oh so you think it's funny huh?

Leo: I never said it was.

Phantasm: I agree with the Akilla, as much as we all want to beat up Dario for keeping this a secret but we have to stay hidden otherwise we'll let our wild side take control and we might harm others.

Cottonwood: *sniff* Why did you hide this from us?

Dario: *felt heartbroken* Cotton, I didn't mean to hurt all of you. Please....

He looks at all of them.

Dario: Please, just let me explain everything. I owe you that much at least with what I am facing myself with.

There was silence within the group of girls, Marcus stepped up.

Marcus: You heard him, he said he'll explain everything, so don't just act all pissed off at him. Don't be that harsh on him!

Rakezh: I agree. Come on, let's head back.

The scene changed to Seth and Armand who were on a market, they were on their own mission to search for Prime.

Armand: So according to you? This Prime comes into multiple flavors?

Seth: Yes, for example there's a lemon lime flavor, then a strawberry watermelon flavor.

Armand: Eww.

Seth: Orange mango flavor, glowberry flavor, cherry freeze flavor.

Armand: Who comes up with these?

Seth: Then there's an ice pop flavor, a piñata colada flavor, a New York 1.000.000.000 flavor-

Armand: Wait stop stop. "New York 1.000.000.000" flavor? The hell is that?

Seth: It's a limited time edition energy drink, named after one of our biggest cities in America, New York City.

Armand: I get that but the name, "New York 1.000.000.000" flavor? Never in my life have I heard anything so preposterous and stupid.

Seth: Welcome to the human world Armand.

Armand: Ok, there surely can't be any other flavor names worse than this.

Seth: Oh look here, there's one with a KSI flavor?

Armand:....Does he smoke?

Seth: Cigarettes?

Armand: No.

This earned a chuckle from Seth as he knew what he meant.

Armand: I don't wanna imagine how the "KSI flavor" tastes like.

Seth: Well like how you said, we have to taste a Prime drink to see if it the deal is worth it or not.

Armand: Me and my big mouth...we're buying just one right?

Seth: We're buying one of each flavors that exist in this market right now.

Armand gulped.

The scene changed back to the mansion, we see everyone sitting as they wait for Dario's explaination. The latter began explaining

Dario: Ok so I went to Romania, you know to hunt and all. But there was a bad vibe to the forest I was in, it's as if it was haunted.

Banny: Like a ghost?

Dario: Close but no cigar. There's this one wolf who's obsessed with two things. Killing me and to get rid of all humans on Earth.

Staffy: Kill all humans? Why would he want that?

Dario: He wants animals to live peacefully and no humans means there are no threats of extinction.

Drusilla: And what's ironic is that he used to be human himself in the past.

Snowgara: Wait really? And is he old?

Drusilla: No, he's been living in our home for eons but he never aged or changed.

Shirogami: Ha, so we're dealing with a prehistoric fossil eh? I wonder if one touch makes him fall apart.

Sprinter: That thing just be might be a vampire.

Luna: That's no vampire, he's more like a demon.

Maple: Well whatever he is, what he is doing is wrong. He can't just kill all humans, that might throw the entire world of balance.

Gemini: Worst of all, being slaves to this wolf...

Whitney: Wot's he called?

Dario: Vlad, his name is Vlad. And he's not alone. He has some guys backing him up. Some annoying lynx named Lugosi.

Hel: Lynx?

Dario: A chamois named Renfield.

Dzunukwa: Wait, that guy we met back? He works for this Vlad guy? I told ya we should've killed him!

Phantasm: Ah, the resident mountain climbers. I've seen a few in the Alps myself.

Dario: And a moose named Jäger.

Snowflake: A moose as well? This is quite the surprise.

Dario: He nearly killed me in Ukraine.

Mythal:....*pulls out knife*

Dario: But Luna and Drusilla saved me.

Mythal:...*lowers knife*

Rakezh: That Jäger and I still have some unfinished business after last time.

Gemini: You will not be fighting him.

Rakezh: Who said I was going to fight him? *pulls out gun*

Maple: Ok what's the big deal with these guys. You fought with an infected wolf as Hel and Scruffy told us.

Dario: Basically he plans on infecting every water source all over Europe, creating an animal army where he controls them and tells them what to do.

Indulu: So a hivemind? And he's the queen bee, or king in his case.

Dario: It's not just that, he even managed to convince other trophies to join him.

Rakezh: Like that Faust guy.

Dzunukwa: Or that dumb wildcat I killed and let's not forget-

Tayova: That son of a bitch that tried to kill you in Belgium, if it weren't for me.

Hurricane: Take a shot everytime Dario gets himself into a near death situation.

Leo: Now that's a game I'd love hehe.

Maple: So what you're saying is that this guy is still roaming Europe at large.

Dario: Yeah, who knows where he could go next. But I feel like I have a target on my back.

Scruffy: Hunter became the hunted, quite ironic.

Everyone looked at her.

Scruffy: What? Bite me! It was just a quote I read from the net!

Marcus: Who knows what he could've done to Belgium. We still got that red deer that we chased off, without a doubt he's also up to something.

Akilla: Dario, does Luke know about this?

Dario: No, neither he or Nyx. But Armand does.

Rakezh: And no, we're not getting Luke or Seth into this one.

Marcus: 1, Luke is just a kid. 2, Seth will have our heads if he hears about this.

Banny: Wait, where is Armand right now?

Meanwhile.

Armand: Ok which one should we try first?

Armand and Seth were inside a cafe.

Seth: How about tropical flavor? Those ones are usually good.

Armand: Let's hope so.

Seth poured on two glasses for himself and the red deer before tasting the drink.

Armand: Mmm....Not bad.

Seth: What did I tell ya haha.

Armand: Now let's try this ice pop flavor.

They poured that and started drinking it, then suddenly Armand groans in pain as he held his jaw.

Armand: Ah....my jaw.

Seth: Now we know why it's named ice pop. Should we go for the piñata colada one?

Armand: Go for it...

The drink was poured and the two tasted it.

Armand: I don't know about this one chief.

Seth: It's a weird one, it's like grinding salsa and perfume water together.

Armand: I don't know what the first one is, but I know what perfume water is. Yuck! It tastes like Natz piss.

Seth: Strawberry melon flavor?

Armand: I have a feeling that I'll hate this one.

The drinks were poured once again and they tasted it.

Seth: It's...indifferent...

Armand: I don't get this one, the flavors are clashing, it's bland. Bland like the creator of this himself.

Seth: You're not gonna like this next one, the KSI flavor.

Armand: You really want me to speedrun heart failure, aren't you?

Seth: Just shut up and take it, I mean how bad can it be?

They took the shot of the drink and the two stood frozen and glanced at one another before Armand got up.

Armand: Excuse me one moment please.

Seth: Go ahead.

Armand left Seth alone who picked up the KSI flavored drink and put it in a nearby trash can.

Seth: Armand was right, this brand deal is not worth it. I'm calling KSI and cancelling his-

He could hear Armand barfing from the restroom not far away, making the boss cringe a bit.

Seth: Yeah I'm cancelling this crap...

The scene changed to the mansion, we cut to Dario who finished off his story of his misadventures with Vlad and his group.

Dario: And that's how it ends, he's probably planning his next move or something.

Okami: Well wotever he's doin' it's definitely no good. No way you're going back there where he probably contaminated the entire continent.

Peekon: What if that plague he's making reaches America soon....?*shivers*

Hurricane: DO NOT SAY THAT! That plague won't reach America. *turns to Dario* We're killing that demon now.

Dario: Bullets are harmless to him.

Luna: But holy stuff isn't. Remember Ukraine?

Dario: Oh yeah. But seriously...if this guy continues unchecked he's gonna doom everything and everyone with it.

Francisca: Now calling him crazy can be a bit of an understatement. He is fucking out of this world for wanting self destruction on what was his "former kind"

Cottonwood: I can't imagine a world without you...*to Dario*

Dario: Hey hey, relax. I'm still breathing aren't I? If I could survive this long then there's a chance he might go down. I'm gonna eventually kill him.

Marcus: You? Sorry buddy but you're not going out there alone.

Sofia: Wherever you go, I follow you Marcus.

Marcus looked away with a small blush.

Rakezh: Yeah, I'm on your side. I'm coming with you.

Gemini: Count me in as well. Let's ravage those sickos!

Hurricane: Not just those four, but all of us.

Dario: What?! But I don't wanna endanger you!

Maple: We understand your concern but we don't want you fighting your battles all alone. Especially when he has probably thousands of animals at his control.

Phantasm: Going there is basically suicide. And we don't you doing a kamikaze, mon cheri.

Peekon: Just know that we're with you all the way Dario, yes we're angry at the fact you didn't tell us....but we're always there for you, no matter what.

Dario was surprised, he smiled but had teary eyes as he was assured of being able to fight not alone, but with everyone that cares for him.

Dario: Oh you guys...I don't know what I'd do without you...I love you all.

Girls: Awww.

Marcus: I do too, no homo.

Rakezh: What he said.

Gemini: Glad you're able to think straight~.

Rakezh: Shut up furball!

They all laughed it off.

Meanwhile.

Seth: *on the call with KSI* I am sorry sir, but I reject your deal, it just doesn't sit well or fit with my company.

He looks over to Armand who had a smug and gave him a thumbs up.

Seth: *on the call* Anyways KSI, have a wonderful day.

He ended the call and the two high fived.

Armand: See? I saved you from a bad brand cooperation.

Seth: And I thank you for that. You know. You and can I a great team.

Armand: Ya think? Nah seriously you don't need to tell me twice, we'll be the BEST team of all time. If you got any other stuff like this, I'm here for ya.

Seth: Help is always appreciated my friend.

The two chuckled before fist bumping.

End.

OK guys, this was chapter 106.

Peace out!
