Morozko laughed as his hands glowed light blue.

Morozko: EAT THIS!!

He then fired an ice beam at Shirogami who dodged it.

Shirogami: Wow, bad shot. *smirk*

Morozko: I'll show you bad shot.

He then aimed up in the air and fired another beam, suddenly hail began raining down at them.

Okami: Everyone take cover!

Dario: We can't leave Mythal-

He was cut off by a double kick by Morozko which sent the Americo-Macedonian crashing to the ice cube of Mythal.

Morozko: Who's the hunter now ha?!

He was tackled from behind by Whitney.

Whitney: Dario, get up and run!

The hunter got up only for his feet to get frozen as he was bound to the ground.

Morozko: Многу си бавен, кучки син! (You're too slow, son of a bitch!)

Dario: *grits teeth* Еее сега си го побара! (Now you've done it!)

He pulled out a handgun and fired at Morozko who quickly turned into his normal form and began running away.

Dario: Come back bitch!

Okami: Ye wanna get frozen?

Dario: Before I fill his skull with lead? I'll take my chances.

Then they all gathered around to see the frozenly bound Dario.

Shirogami: Well, he kinda grounded ye. *smug*

Dario: Not the time for jokes Shiro, but I appreciate the effort.

Shirogami: Alright alright, now how do we get rid of de ice.

???: I think I can help with that!

They turned to see a chamois with tan fur, grey markings on its face, green eyes and small antlers.

Okami: Oi! It's that Renfield guy!

???: Renfield-

Before he could finish he was attacked by Okami and pinned to the ground.

Dario: Okami! Wait that's not him!

Okami: How? He's a chamois, ya said it!

Dario: No, the real Renfield never talks! Plus this one has a funny accent, he's clearly Albanian. Let him go.

Okami:....Fine!

She got off as the chamois dusted himself.

???: Oh thank you thank you thank you! I thought I was gonna be wolf food.

Dario: You said you could help? What's your name friend?

Mondi: Mondi. And yes I think I have the tools to help you.

He turned into his human form where he was now a middle aged man with dark brown hair, tan skinned, green eyes, he was wearing a more casual look of a leather jacket, grey V-neck sweater and black jeans. He was also carrying a small bag with him.

He approached Dario and pulled out a hammer and an ice pick and began cracking the ice until the hunter's feet were free.

Mondi: There! Good as new.

Whitney: Can you help free our friend?

Points to the frozen Mythal.

Mondi: Of course, just give me a moment.

He then went to the frozen Mythal and began slowly chipping the ice away.

Mondi: So, what made you want to come to Mavrovo in such harsh conditions lately.

Shirogami: Well, to stop some satanic wolf from god knows wot.

Mondi: Satanic wolf? It must be a Serbian.

Dario: No, he's Romanian.

Mondi: Oh and what does he wanna do?

Dario: Destroy all humans?

Mondi: Say what?! Why would he want that?

Okami: Well, no humans means he can enslave us all!

Mondi: Well now that you mentioned it, while I was strolling I did see two deers who were going to the west side of the park, a lot of roots and thorns were made along the way.

Dario: *narrowed his eyes* Duke and Faust. Vlad did mention something about sheltering the other side from something..but what...?

Okami: Oi, me and Whit will check it out to see wot dey're up to and maybe stop dem.

Dario: Right, I trust you to not get right?

Okami: Normally I don't make promises. But I moight make for ye. *blew a kiss before leaving*

Whitney: Don't worry about us, focus on trying to find out wot Vlad is up to.

Shirogami: Not to worry lynxy, we got dis.

Okami and Whitney left, Mondi was close to freeing Mythal.

Mondi: Almost done my friend, by the way I never got your names.

Dario: Dario.

Shirogami: Shirogami, call me Shiro if ye want.

The chamois then freed the red deer who breathed heavily to catch her breath.

Dario: Myth, are you ok?!

He checked on her, Mythal hugged him tightly.

Mythal: Oh you're safe my love...I didn't want you to get frozen or-

Dario: It's fine no worries. All thanks to you.

He kissed her quickly as she smiled.

Shirogami: Oi, I found footprints on where our icy friend is going.

Dario: Then let's go!

Mondi: Wait can I come with? I gotta check if my family is alright!

Dario: Sure, you can probably help along the way.

They then entered inside the national park. Unknown to them, Lugosi stared from afar with a smug.

Lugosi: Time to mess with them hehe.

The scene changed to Archduke and Faust who were blocking all the entrances to the west side of the national park.

Archduke was using his new root based powers to create barriers, meanwhile Faust was slouching on a nearby stump letting the red deer do all the work.

Archduke: You know, I could use an extra hand. *looks at Faust*

Faust: Non, tu as tout sous contrôle mon ami. (Nah, you got this all under control my friend.)

Archduke: *groaned* I'm the one doing the heavy lifting, what have YOU done?!

Faust: Look Duke-

Archduke: Archduke!

Faust: I will still call you Duke to piss you off. Or maybe Dukester. Or maybe Dukey, oh yeah that works! Dukey the Exiled King.

Archduke: *left eye twitched* You're. Testing. My patience....

Faust: Don't blame me cause I'm bored, maybe if you changed that hairstyle of yours you'd probably have ladies flaunting all over you. Oh wait...*smirk*

The red deer groaned in annoyance before stomping on the ground.

Archduke: Why did that mongrel place me with you?

Faust: Maybe because he want you to have some company, cause you're lonely without your herd.

Archduke: It's not my fault he ordered me to place my herd on the French border to wait for us.

Faust: Ya ya ya, I'm bored. When will something fun happen to me...

Archduke: Oh you want fun huh? Well how about it-

Faust: Behind you!

Archduke turned around only to get whacked by a stick on the face, causing the red deer to stumble to the ground.

The attacker was Whitney with a smirk.

Archduke: Who are you supposed to be?!

Okami: Yer worst nightmare.

Faust: Ooooooh this is gonna be fun!

Archduke was surrounded in more roots as they helped him get back.

Archduke: You dare attack royalty?

Okami: I don't see gold anywhere, so ye don't count.

The red deer used his root powers and launched an attack Okami but she turned into her true form to dodge the attack. Whitney joined in as she tried to attack Archduke again but he blocked the attack and tossed the stick away before grabbing the lynx by the throat.

Suddenly a rock was thrown at him, he turned around as it came from Faust.

Faust: No choking! That ruins the fight!

Archduke: You little-

Okami tackled Duke to the ground and began mauling him.

Archduke: Faust! Help me!

Faust: Considering how you acted all rude towards me.....Nah!

Whitney: Wow so much for teamwork der.

The red deer then used more roots to push Okami away and casted a barrier around himself.

Archduke: Ha! Try to hurt me now ya whore!

Okami: Grrrrrrrr you'll regret dat! We'll break through one way or another.

Then suddenly a root spawned from the ground to whip the wolf's face but Whitney pushed her away and got hit instead, resulting for her to crash on a nearby tree.

Whitney: Ow!!!

Okami: Ya ok Whit? *checks on her*

Faust: *to Archduke* Booooooooooooooo!! No fair! That's cheating, get out there and fight like a man!

Archduke: Ferme ta guelue! (Shut your mouth!)

Okami and Whitney were now behind Faust who turned to them with a bit of a scared face.

Faust: Umm hello dames. (Ladies)

Okami: Yer not off the hook either.

Faust: Tell ye what, I'll help free our friend here from his cocoon in exchange you don't hurt me.

Archduke: WHAT?!?

Faust: I mean it I swear I'll get rid of those roots.

Whitney: How are you gonna do that?

Faust grabs two dry sticks and rubs them, ultimately creating some fire. He then tossed one of the sticks at Archduke's barrier which ended up catching fire and smoke coming out.

Archduke: AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Okami: Woah. *laughs*

Archduke: YOU SABOTAGE!!!

Faust: It's called friendly fire Dukester, I only want a fair fight but cheating isn't allowed.

Whitney grabbed the other stick from him and tossed it at the root barriers Duke made as they all started to catch fire.

Archduke: YOU INGRATE!! Wait until I tell Vlad!

Faust: Mistakes happen. *shrugs* But hey at least we've done some chaos haha!

Okami: *to Whitney* Tha an duine seo 's dòcha cuthag ach co-dhiù chuidich e sinn gu neo-dhìreach gus a dhèanamh nas fhasa faighinn cuidhteas na freumhan. (This guy maybe cuckoo but at least he indirectly helped us make it easier to get rid of the roots.)

Whitney nods, Archduke runs away in his true form as he caught fire and screamed in agony.

Faust: Come back! *follows him*

Okami: Come on, after them!

They ran after the two. Unknown to them, they created a wildfire.

The scene changed to Vlad who was pacing left and right.

Vlad: Where is Lugosi?

Jäger: *digging* He left because he was bored.

Vlad: I'm not surprised he said that, that clumsy cat will always get himself into trouble.

Then Morozko ranned up to him. Vlad turned to him with hands on his hips.

Vlad: Now what?

Morozko: Sir, we seem to have an issue, that human had a gun and nearly killed me.

Vlad: Ok and?

Morozko: That's all.

Vlad stomped on the otter's foot making him scream in pain.

Vlad: Congratulations, you let them enter. In fact I can sense them in this forest not far away-

He then sniffed the air and turned to his right to see smoke far away.

Vlad: Without a doubt those lumbering oafs started a forest fire. Do me a favour and put it out before we get humans involved in this.

Morozko: On it!

He left. Vlad turned to the hole.

Vlad: Jäger, come with me. We got some hunting to do.

Jäger: *gets out of the hole* At your service master!

Vlad: Renfield, do not go out of that hole until you hit paydirt!

Renfield nods as he kept digging as Vlad and Jäger left.

The scene changed to Dario's group as they were on their way to the Vrutok source.

Mondi: I'm gonna go and check right. *he left momentarily*

Dario: I hope we're not too late-

He was suddenly tackled from behind, the attacker was Lugosi.

Lugosi: Tag! You're all it!

He then starts dragging Dario away. Mythal grit her teeth before grabbing the ice pick from Mondi and threw it at the lynx and managed to hit his shirt, pinning the lynx to a nearby tree.

Lugosi: *hissed* Party pooper!

He then climbs up a tree, rocks started to rain from above.

Shirogami: Dario!

She turned into her human form and ran to him and took off her jacket and put it over him as it shielded the hunter from a bit less damage from the rocks.

Dario: Shiro, think you can climb up and take him out?

Shirogami: On it!

She then turned into her fox form and climbed up to meet with Lugosi's back facing her.

Lugosi: Hello new friend. *swiftly turns head around* HA!!!

He lunged him at the white fox trophy but she jumped up and kicked down his head.

Shirogami: Did yer ma tell ye not to play with rocks?

Lugosi: And did your momma ever tell you that lynx prey on foxes.

Shirogami: And did yer ma ever told ya to SHUT DE FOCK UP!

Lugosi grit his teeth ready to pounce on her, Shirogami used the branch underneath her to whack the lynx before kicking him off the tree.

Dario got up thanks to Mythal, Lugosi landed next on them.

Mythal: Hehe....*cracks knuckles*

Dario: He's all yours Myth~.

Mythal turned into her true form and began stomping on Lugosi's body repeatedly.

Shirogami: Hell yeah! Get him!

Suddenly the tree she was sitting ontop of was shaking.

Shirogami: W-ooo-oooahhh!

The tree fell from the side, crashing on the ground, the fox slowly crawled out of it to see Jäger being the one responsible for it.

Dario: Jäger!

Shirogami: Ah? So that's the Bullwinkle wannabe?

Dario: Pretty mu-

Suddenly Vlad teleported in front of Dario and grabbed him by the throat.

Mythal: Hey!

She was about to punch Vlad but he teleported away with Dario.

Shirogami/Mythal: Dario!

Jäger tackled Mythal away.

Jäger: This is the last time I am saving your life Lugosi...

Lugosi:....Whatever, destroy them big boy!

The moose raised his foot ready to stomp on Mythal, but suddenly a rock was thrown at behind his head. The trophy turned around to see Mondi who came back and stood up for Mythal.

Mondi: Go away you demon!

Jäger:.....

He then approached Mondi which scared him. He turned into his chamois form and began running away, Jäger turned into his moose form and gave chase.

Shirogami: Heh...*walks to Mythal* Ye ok lass?

Mythal: I can manage...*gets up* We must find Dario!

She ran to a different direction.

Shirogami: Hey! Wait-And she's gone. I better go and help the chamois tho...

She left, meanwhile Lugosi slowly got up as he growled in pure anger after the brutal beating he recieved.

One of his eyes was dangling from the socket as blood poured all over his face.

The scene changed to Archduke and Faust who wet on the run, they saw who was trying to put out the fire with his ice powers.

Archduke: Run for your lives! This fire is too strong!

Faust: *stops and looks at Morozko* Just stop, you know you can't do it.

Morozko: Who says I can't?

Faust: I do.

Morozko: Пичка ти матер. (You motherfucker)

Whitney and Okami saw the two talking. Morozko saw them.

Morozko: Well well if it isn't the two bitches that tried to cross my gates earlier?

Okami: You're about to get a beat down of a lifetime!

Morozko: Y'know what Faust, you're right. Fuck this!

He then freezed Okami and Whitney's legs, stopping them in their tracks.

Morozko: This forest fire is not my problem, why bother putting it out. After all, I'm not the one that caused it. Hahahahaha! *runs off*

Whitney: Fuck!

They turned around to see the fire spreading faster than ever.

Okami: Not dis way!

Faust saw the two struggling, he sighed before he saw a big rock nearby. He grabbed it and tossed it at Whitney.

Whitney: Faust?

Faust: Use it to free yourselves from the ice. It's been nice meeting you, maybe we can meet another day.

He ran off.

Okami: Dat sleezy little-

Whitney: Shut up and lemme concentrate on freeing us!

Okami: But dey're getting away!

Whitney: I know but we have to find Dario and get out before the fire reaches us!

She grabbed the rock and started breaking the ice, slowly but surely the ice was cracking.

The scene changed to Vlad and Dario who teleported somewhere away from everyone, the wolf tossed the hunter away as he landed on the ground and rolled a couple of times.

Dario: You...are not getting away with this....

Vlad: If I were you I'd start running....but that'll be a waste, because I'll always find you. You're that predictable, you humans all think and act the same.

Dario: You're so evil it's boring, you're basic man!

Vlad: *smirked* Yes, but while the mortal world doubts and questions...

The trees around them started decaying, shadows started to emit from all sides that surround the two.

Vlad: I know, exactly what I am!

Dario began sweating, he was getting scared as the ground began forming cracks everytime Vlad took a step.

Vlad: I am the ceaseless wheel that never stops turning. I am the next plague coming its way. I am your extinction.

???: Vile creature!

Vlad: Huh?

A knife was launched at him and it hit Vlad on his right eye, making him groan a bit in pain.

Mythal came to Dario.

Dario: Mythal!

Mythal: I won't let him hurt you, my dearest...

She hugged him tightly. Dario wanted to say something else but he couldn't bring himself to do it. He knew he was never alone in this fight.

Vlad: *sarcastic* Aww, how touching...

The two looked at him as he removed the knife from his eye, making him bleed more tar.

Vlad: Fall.

Then, both Dario and Mythal were weakened and they fell on the ground like something happened to them.

Dario tried to open his eyes but only saw Vlad approaching him with a dark chuckle. He looked over to Mythal to see her out of consciousness.

Vlad: You're alone now child...there is only darkness for you and only death for your people.

Dario tried to get up but he was powerless.

Vlad: The animals and the river currents are just the beginning. I will command a great and powerful army.

Dario tried his best to pull out his handgun but he couldn't as he fell down, dropping his handgun and another item on the ground.

Vlad: Europe is just the beginning, we'll soon sail every continent. We will sail until every glimmer of hope for humanity has been erased.

He now stood above the weakened Dario, the hunter only faced Vlad's feet.

Vlad: Although...I have to give you credit. Managing to foil my plans and following my every move, takes courage.

Dario: It's.....not over.....

Vlad: No...it's finished. You have reached the end of your story.

He raised his foot up ready to smash Dario's skull.

Dario looked to the side and saw a wooden cross, the same one that Frost gave him.

He reached out and grabbed it before showing it to Vlad, this only made the black wolf scream in agony and walk away as he felt a burning sensation around his body.

It snapped the unconscious state powers which woke Mythal up as well.

Mythal: Dario!?

She turned to see Vlad backing away from the cross.

Dario: *pulls it down* Yeah how do you like that bitch?!

Vlad was ready to fall on his knees as he grit his teeth in anger staring at Dario.

Vlad: This...was not how IT SUPPOSED TO END!!!!!

He then slammed his fists on the ground, his body manifested faster as he grew a lot more in size and soon more fur surrounded his body. His left arm was a wolf claw like his right one, his legs were now a bit more folded like legs of a demon.

Vlad: GRAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

Suddenly the entire forest began shaking violently and things started to warp and break reality, all of gravity was defied, lifting Dario and Mythal along with trees.

Vlad: Time has lost its meaning. Reality is breaking. Humanity's suffering is assured. I am Vlad, a name from which the world shooked!

Earthquakes occurred and lava started coming out.
The forest fire began spreading faster and more rapidly until it covered 80% of the National park all thanks to Vlad.

From all the influences, we cut to the chase between Jäger and Mondi.

Mondi was almost caught by the moose but a burning fell between them.

Jäger's eyes widened, which only made the moose back away in fear. He looked around and saw the entire forest ablaze.

The moose began grunting and screaming in fear before he turned around and began running away.

Shirogami moved aside as the frightened moose was on the run.

Shirogami: Pyrophobia eh? *smirk*

Mondi: Shirogami, we need to get out of here!

Renfield got out of the hole with the chromite as he began coughing, he saw all his colleagues running. He joined them too.

Dario and Mythal were screaming as they thought they could die.

Vlad sensed Renfield's departure and smirked.

Vlad: I wish I could burn you here and now, but I have a very important manner to attend to. Let's end all of this. Come and face me in France! I will destroy you along with everyone you love before I move to taking over this pathetic world!

He then disappeared from their vision. The forest fire and everything that happened on this forest all died out.

Dario and Mythal fell on the ground hard.

Mythal: Ow....*groans in pain*

Dario: *checks on her* Myth-

Mythal: I'm alright Dari...nothing i can't handle...*chuckled*

???: DARIO!!!

They turned to see Okami and Whitney and then Shirogami and Mondi on the opposite sides. They all went to check on them.

Mondi: Talk to us! What happened?

Dario looked at all of them.

Dario: It's not over....he is waiting for us in France....

Shirogami: France?

???: Hehehe....things are over before you get there!

They turned to see Lugosi who was crawling to them while he still looked mangled as well as his body being burnt to a crisp

Lugosi: Vlad will crush you...he will bury you all those bitches alive.

Mythal: Shall I kill him for ye darling?

Dario: Nah, I got something else better.

The hunter approached Lugosi.

Dario: So...your master abandoned you huh, talk about a leader.

Lugosi: Shut up! Even so, there's nothing you can do about it now that he reached his pinnacle.

Dario: Vlad is only strong because of others and their foolish mistake, he only is strong because everyone fear him. But I grew passed it.

Lugosi: Like shit you did. That won't change the fact that humanity will fall.

Dario: Kinda like you when Shiro pushed you off the tree to get trampled.

Shirogami: Guilty as charged~.

Lugosi: Shut up!

Dario: What's wrong Lugosi? Are all 9 lives flashing before your eyes. Admit it, without Vlad around to bail you out, you're nothing.

Lugosi: Fuck you!

Dario: You know what, I'm done with you. You can go to Hell for all I care. It's too bad you won't be there to see your "lord" fall down.

Lugosi: HE WILL SUCCEED AND HE WILL DESTROY YOU!!!

Dario: *turns to his girls* He's all yours girls, play rough for once.

All 4 Scotswomen smirked evily before they cracked their knuckles and turned into their true forms ready to beat up and if not kill Lugosi.

Dario: Any last words?

Lugosi: I HATE YOU!!!!!!

Those were his final words before he got jumped and get beaten up. Dario turned to Mondi.

Dario: While they're busy, I wanna say thanks for helping us Mondi, you were great help.

Mondi: Oh it was no problem. But if you need assistance for this whole France scuffle. I am available.

Dario: Sweet.

The two shook hands, while they ignored Lugosi's screams of agony before a neck snap was heard.

To be continued....

OK guys, this was chapter 108.

Peace out!
