Yuliy and (name) had engaged themselves in battle, letting Mikhail take a chance to breathe as he watched the two. Their attacks were a mix of one another's abilities such as Yuliy slicing down his sword upon getting at a close range to Yevgraf with (name) following as she grabbed the man's limbs, pulling them back. This gave the Sirius an advantage to swing down his sword, cutting off Yevgraf's arm that instantly began to grow back.

Mikhail clicked his tongue, "tch, this fight is gonna take a while" and then he too ran into battle. Both teens made way for the older one's appearance, allowing him to take a swing at Yevgraf. One by one, the three landed attacks with the aid of one another. Once Mikhail stabbed through one of Yevgraf's arm, Yuliy stabbed him in the back with his sword before he bent down and knitted his fingers in front of him.

A word didn't need to be said for his idea to take place. (Name) ran towards him, jumping on his hands as they were used to boost her up into the air. For an aerial attack, (name) took her wires, forming a thin line as she spun her way down creating more friction within the air. With gravity adding to her strength, the half-vampire pulled on each side of the wire, tightening it. To stop Yevgraf from moving away, Mikhail and Yuliy rushes towards him on both sides. Without looking up, Yevgraf evaded into the air where he met with (name) who wrapped her wires around his arm, "take this, you bastard" she glared as she used her strength to pull the wires together, slicing off Yevgraf's arm.

(Name) landed on her feet and moved to the side. Watching as Yevgraf try to regenerate his arm, the trio were surprised when his leg suddenly broke down into dust despite beginning to heal. "The power of the Ark must be too much for his body" Mikhail interpreted grimly. Yevgraf began to fly away but (name) made a move to wrap her wire around one of his wings so in the end, she ended up getting dragged behind Yevgraf.

"(Name)!"

Yuliy called out in alert. Without hesitation, the Sirius ran to the edge of the blimp. Jumping off, he directed his body to the man once known as Yevgraf, grabbing the sword in his back. A sense of pride filled Yuliy's chest as he glanced at (name) and her clenched teeth. This person- this special person has been with him through the thickest of forests and the thinnest of rivers. No way in hell was Yuliy going to give up something so precious to him.

'I can't let him take the Ark!' Yuliy announced to himself. 'I've finally found a path to follow! I've finally found someone I want to protect! I've finally found something truly worth fighting for! I'm not giving it all up now!' Gritting his teeth, the Sirius survivor reached up in hopes to get a hold of the Ark but was intercepted when Yevgraf turned and smacked him down. "Yuliy!" (Name) called out to as she reached her hand. Their fingertips touched just barely before Yuliy's body was too far from (name)'s.

Seeing his younger brother get knocked down, Mikhail quickly flew in. Taking Yuliy's wrist into his hand, Mikhail flew upwards; "for some reason, you like making me worry about you, brother." He said in a I-hope-you-know way.

The sight of Yuliy and Mikhail approaching made (name) sigh a breath of relief. Unfortunately, that relief was short lived when Yevgraf spun around and around as if to shake her off. (Name) cursed under her breath while looking for a way to stop Yevgraf for just a bit. As if a lightbulb appeared on top of her head, the half-vampire did the first thing that came to her mind. She pulled herself up (which proved to be an obstacle all on its own) to Yevgraf's shoulders. After stabilizing into an okay place, she grabbed onto Yevgraf's shoulders and flipped her body so that she was in front of him.

Yevgraf was definitely surprised but it wasn't just him- Yuliy and Mikhail were too. "Flipping while the enemy is spinning. That was a risky move" Mikhail observed as he glanced at Yuliy who now has a proud smile on his face, "but it's something only she can do." Surprised by his brother's statement, Mikhail chuckled lightly "seems like you're pretty smitten, huh?" He asked gaining a blush in response. 'How cute~ my baby brother's in love. Hey, dad. Is this how you felt when Yuliy told you about (name). There's no way he didn't say her name.' Mikhail mentally chuckled before getting serious again.

He knew he didn't have too long and wanted to help his brother the most he could. And what better way than to get back the Ark!

(Name) had readied her and glance behind her, 'Yuliy and Mikhail aren't too far away. Good' she mentally noted. Feeling Yevgraf move, (name) reacted instantly by placing her hands on the opposite side of Yevgraf's face, snapping his neck on instinct. He had stopped moving meaning that he stopped flying. Both vampires descended downwards but unfortunately, Yevgraf snapped his neck back in place and regained composure. Raising his arm to take a swing at (name), the teen let go of him, allowing herself to fall low enough to Yevgraf's uninjured leg where she grabbed on for the sake of her life. If she were to fall in the water now, she would most likely get away with minor injuries- worst case scenario, a broken bone.

A breeze blew past (name) and she could tell by the scent that it was Yuliy and Mikhail. Looking up, the half-vampire gazed at the angle she saw Yuliy. His eyebrows that furrowed in perseverance. His teeth that clenched in anger. His pale skin that flowed under the moon. Finally, his gorgeous sapphire eyes that was as striking as lightning. It didn't take an idiot to know how truly stunning the Sirius was right now. He was truly a work of art.

Yuliy had taken a grip on the sword that was inside Yevgraf's backside. Channeling his frustration and rage into strength, the seventeen-year-old dragged the blade upward towards Yevgraf's shoulder. The blood wave produced was immense as (name) shielding herself from any fallen liquid.

Without wasting any time, Mikhail flew up to meet Yevgraf's gaze (NOOOOO!!!! AHHHHH!!! IM ACTUALLY CRYING! JUST REMEMBERING MAKES ME CRY ;;) "your opponent is me, you bastard!" Mikhail announced as he formed his spear-like nails in a arrow shape before stabbing Yevgraf's right eye. The eye that the Ark resides in.

But when one gains, one also loses. The moment Mikhail gained the Ark, Yevgraf penetrated Mikhail's chest with his own nails. Pain erupted inside the turned vampire's body as blood pooled within his mouth, resulting in him spitting it out. All he could feel was pain as his system was replaced with nothing but agony.

"Mikhail!"

Both teens shout in urgency. Mikhail gathered as much strength as he could and pulled out the Ark from Yevgraf's hold while shouting "give me back... the Ark, you bastard!!" Without the power of the Ark, Yevgraf's body began to turn to ash. Seeming to get a sense of himself, Yevgraf still decided to put a fight; "my power as the true ancestor-" "you believed everything the Ark told you, thus you were swallowed by it." (Name) bluntly stated.

Yevgraf glared at her and scoffed.

"What can you and that Sirius do? You can't do anything on your own. Both of you are just some kids who survived."

This time it was Yuliy who spoke.

"It's because I can't do this alone that I need the Ark. To coexist with different species- I would even save the vampires!"

(Name)'s (e/c) eyes widen at the Sirius' statement. And to think back when his purpose in life was to rid this world of vampires. How the tides have turned. Unfortunately, Yevgraf didn't think the same.

"Nonsense! If I were to be saved by a filthy wolf and half-breed vampire like you, I would rather die a noble death!"

Yevgraf's voice was full of spite. As if he truly felt pure hatred and disdain for the Sirius and half-vampire. And it would be a lie if he said he didn't. Not wanting Yevgraf's words to affect the two teens too much, Mikhail slashed at Yevgraf's neck, sending his head flying. "Then you'll get what you wished for," was what Mikhail said as he did so.

Yevgraf's body turned to ash, flying away with the night breeze and for a moment, all three of them sighed a mental breath of relief.

Finally. They did it. They finally did it. All their wounds seemed to heal and their muscles that were once tense, released, sending a euphoric sense of accomplishment into each of the trios' bloodstream.

They won. They actually won this twisted war.

I really did it. I REALLY UPDATED!! YESSSS! But... woah. Who would've thought that this would be the second to last chapter.

Yes, I do plan to end things in the next chapter- maybe I'll do another one as an epilogue. And uh... I know that the fighting isn't accurate but please please deal with me. I couldn't see because of my tears while I thought of Mikhail's death.

It's literally the worst thing ever.

Wait-

I just realized that the reader and Yuliy are going to confess their feelings for each in the next-
