DAY ONE BEFORE BATTLE OF SHANGQUI

⚜️⚜️

ALGIERS

The Next Day, The neighborhood is half crowded with musicians and vendors selling merchandise.

[Christy Outfit]

Christy gently climbs up a ladder and Josh approaches her.

"Hey, Christy. Are you occupied with something?" Josh asked.

Christy looks at her best friend, Josh. "Not really. What is it, Josh?"

"Marcel needs your help with something." Josh said, and shows her a few pictures of a dessicated dead body of a vampire in an alleyway on his phone.

Christy looks at the picture on Josh's phone. "What happened?"

"Don't know, but the vampires are thinking that it's the werewolves or the witches." Josh said.

"So, if you, me and Marcel can prove that it wasn't the werewolves or witches responsible for the dessicated dead vampire, they'll shut up?" Christy said.

"Something like that." Josh said.

"Okay." Christy said.

⚜️⚜️

TREMÉ

Marcel is talking to the witches about the few dead bodies that has been found in alleyways.

"Alright, listen up, everyone. I know you all are wondering about the dessicated dead bodies." Marcel said.

"This is not witch business." A female Tremé witch said.

"Take it easy on him." Christy said, crouched down atop of some crates. Everyone looks up at her. "Obviously, the vampires are thinking that a werewolf or witch is responsible for the dessicated vampire dead body, but something else is to blame."

The Tremé witches exchange looks at each other and murmurs among each other.

Christy gently leaps off the crate and onto the ground and stands up to her feet.

"Marcel and I will handle the situation, but we will let you know about the culprit. Until then, keep your magic spells to yourselves." Christy told them.

"How can you be so certain that this was something else?" The same Tremé witch asked.

"I have an hypothesis." Christy told her. "But as I told you all, keep your magic spells to yourselves."

"You heard Christy, she and I will handle it." Marcel said.

Marcel and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.

ALGIERS / MARCEL'S LOFT

Later that day, Marcel, Josh and Christy regrouped with each other.

Christy is looking at a printed photo of a dessicated vampire dead body. She looks at the puncture bite wounds on the dead vampire's stomach.

"This wasn't a vampire." Christy told Marcel and Josh.

"Then, what could it be?" Josh asked.

"A kalek creature." Christy said.

"A what?" Marcel said, a bit confused.

"A kalek creature. It's a mystical creature that feeds on both humans and the supernatural. It feeds until you're drained." Christy said. "We're gonna need some help."

MAX'S AND GIA'S PENTHOUSE

Christy slowly walks inside the living room where Max and Gia.

"Max? I'm gonna need Gia's help. There's a kalek creature out and about and we need to find out before there's drama between vampires and witches." Christy said.

"Okay. I'm coming." Gia said.

"Max?" Christy said.

"I have an ice cream date with Marion at the ice cream shop." Max said and looks at Gia. "Be careful, G."

"I will." Gia said.

"I'll watch out for her." Christy said.

Max, Gia and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.

WAREHOUSE DISTRICT

Later that afternoon, Christy is on the phone with her husband, Klaus.

"What are you up to, Love?" Klaus asked on the phone.

"Helping Marcel with a mythical creature." Christy said. "I assume that you know of the dessicated male dead body that was found in an alleyway."

"I heard of it." said Klaus. "But you should be saving your strength and energy for the upcoming battle."

"Klaus? I assure you I'm fine." Christy reassured her husband. "And Marcel has me, along with Josh and Gia to help him."

"Alright then, I'll see you back at the compound. Be careful with whatever Marcel has you assisting him with." Klaus said.

"Okay." Christy said, and hangs up her phone just as Marcel, Josh and Gia slowly walks up to her.

"Maxy given us a few revolver blasters." Gia said. "He said that a kalek creature can be destroyed with a UV."

"Yeah, a UV can only destroy a kalek creature." Christy said.

"How do you and Max knows so much?" Josh asked.

"Mythical class and education at the Orasanian Elite Academy." Christy said. "We should split up in two. Marcel and Josh, me and Gia."

"Alright." Marcel said.

"And by the way, don't let a kalek creature bite you." Christy said.

"Noted." Gia said.

And then, Marcel and Josh walks away with their revolver blaster. Gia and Christy walks away with their revolver blaster.

Wandering around outside of the warehouse district, Marcel and Josh encounters some Kalek creatures feeding on a vampire.

The Kalek creatures then, looks at Marcel and Josh with blood on their mouths and lungs at them.

Marcel and Josh UV blasts the Kalek creatures with their revolver blasters, destroying the Kalek creatures, disintegrating them.

        Meanwhile, Christy and Gia has encountered some more Kalek creatures and blasts them away with UV blasts from their revolver blasters.

A kalek creature tackles Gia onto the ground and tries to bite her.

"Gia?" Christy said and uses her revolver blaster to blast the Kalek creature away from her with a UV blast.

Christy and Gia exchange looks at each other and Christy helps her up to her feet.

"You okay?" Christy asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine." Gia said.

Marcel and Josh vamp-sped back to Christy and Gia.

"You guys okay?" Christy asked.

"Yeah, we're okay. Those kalek creature things are creepy." Josh said.

Marcel, Josh, Christy and Gia exchange chuckles with each other.

ICE CREAM SHOP

Christy golden dusted teleported herself and Gia to the ice cream shop and walks inside.

"Mommy." Marion said.

Max and Gia exchange looks at each other as he gets up and they hug. And gently pulls away from the hug.

"I'm okay." Gia said. "Christy made sure of it."

Max and Christy exchange small smiles at each other and fist bump each other.

"Thanks, Christy." Max thanked her with a small smile.

"You're welcome, Max." Christy said and walks away.

ALGIERS / MARCEL'S LOFT

That evening, Marcel and Christy are sitting on the couch with their small drinking glasses of bourbon.

"Well, I got everything settled with the vampires and Vincent got everything settled with the Tremé witches. I even showed them a picture of the Kalek creature as proof." Marcel said and takes a swig of his bourbon. "Thanks for your help."

"You're welcome." Christy said, taking a swig of her own bourbon.

"So, tomorrow will be the last time I see you before you leave for battle." Marcel said.

"Yeah." Christy said. "Don't miss me too much."

Marcel chuckled softly to himself. "I won't. Because you'll come back."

Marcel and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.

COMPOUND

That night, in the upstairs bedroom of Klaus's and Christy's, Christy puts her golden battle armor in her duffle bag.

"Getting yourself prepared?" Klaus asked, slowly walks inside.

Christy glances at him and she finishes packing. "Yeah, so, I won't have to tomorrow night."

Klaus looks at Christy and she glances at him as she fastens her duffle bag.

"What?" Christy said.

"Nothing. I'm just gonna miss you is all." Klaus said.

"I'm gonna miss you too, Klaus. Even though, it's two days left." Christy said.

"I know." Klaus said.

"You still haven't dealt with Aurora. Whatever she is." Christy said.

"She's smart enough to lay low." Klaus said.

"Are you gonna be okay while I'm away?" Christy asked.

"Yeah, I'll be fine." Klaus reassured her with a small smile. "By the way, how were things with Marcel?"

"Everything was settled." Christy told him.

Klaus slowly walks up to her. "Just be careful when you're out on the battlefield."

"I'm always careful." Christy said.

Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other. She pecks a kiss on his right cheek and walks away.
