Lukas didn't think he heard correctly, but then stared at Anthony who had lowered his hands from the steering wheel. Matthew wasn't the one who said it, Anthony did. It would have completely shocked Lukas if it had been Philip, but the Vampire proved out to be the voice of reason. "You want to stay, Landel? That's crazy—he just waves around this dagger and you're like, we should stay? That's insane, isn't it, Matthew?" Philip turned to Matthew for support. Matthew nodded slowly, but couldn't turn his…-

"Lukas?" Matthew asked again. "We really don't have time for any of this. It's best if we get going right away." Lukas knelt down in front of one of the corpses and checked their pockets, before pulling out an item. "Key." "Oh, quick thinking." Anthony whistled. "He just touched a corpse." Philip peeked out the window, still looking pale. "He just touched a corpse." "Do any of you know how to drive?" Matthew asked. "I do." Anthony said. "Here, take it." Lukas tossed them the key and then stood up. He…

"So, here's something that I think—maybe it's possible to find a way out of the forest, but I don't think it's a good idea to try to head back to Nyx on foot." Lukas said. As much as he wanted to say the truth, admit it, somehow he just couldn't say it. It would mean that they'd know that it was his fault and the possible repercussions of others knowing his abilities over the possibility of being killed by Rhea was far weightier. "Or not. We'd be dead already if that was the case." Lukas…

They were not in a good place, and so they ran. "What in actual fucking places was that—Mmmph?!" Philip tried to ask but got his mouth covered again by Matthew. "Don't say a word if you want to live." The young man spoke in a dark tone that shut up the older Vampire immediately. Anthony was shaken up, red eyes that should have gave off an intimidating glow now looked unsteady and uncertain as he looked back at Lukas who trailed after them. The creature was nowhere to be seen and all four of them was…

The spiders went down into a heap of corpses, each one dragged by Matthew who didn't even seem bothered by the entrails on his cloak. Philip looked a little sick and close to vomiting, meanwhile Anthony was counting the body of the spiders. "Ooh, that's gonna get us a bit of a hefty price." Anthony said. "You only killed like one or two." Philip frowned and covered his mouth. "But I did say that I hired Matthew as my bodyguard though right? So technically—" Anthony's gaze trailed on the gore on the…

Iolathane had no time for any nonsense. When she saw the people stop and talk, she did not call out to them—but she was sure that she wouldn't give them any certification. They'd have to retake the workshop entirely again. Although that did seem a little mean… "I'll give them five minutes to catch up." Iolathane said to herself. That was enough time to realize that the group was gone and follow after them. "When are we going to see those spiders?" one of them asked behind her. "Nearly just got a…

Lukas glanced at Matthew and then forgot about his awkwardness. Someone else just opened up, and hearing them do that was incredible? It was a feeling that Lukas didn't know how to explain. Of course, it wasn't like he was thrilled with the news about Matthew's sister, but it was something. "Woah, is that why you're here?" Anthony blinked and looked at Matthew. Somehow, he realized that he was looking at a younger Vampire. "What… what happened to her? How sick is she? I don't know about Lukas'…

The Dark Forest's entrance was peaceful, and most creatures kept away from the paved road that stretched out for Lukas and the others. It was actually a little odd that the forest still existed though, with underlying threats with it. "If it were some of us, we would have cleared the forest." Lukas muttered as he eyed the tall trees that towered over them. The leaves were all clustered together and created the pitch black darkness that named the area, it wasn't bad but it was just something. "What? The…

The little things, it was always the little things that tended to add up one after another and become something that bothered you immensely. Lukas wished that he didn't notice these things, but he was someone who could get himself all wrapped up in his thoughts. What were the things that made you happy, sad or frustrated? While not the most self-aware, Lukas considered himself to at least be somewhat good with it. That was what you got after spending so much time by yourself. 'I'm someone who can't…

Dark, lush and evergreen, the forest awaited them as it was nestled into the side of the mountain. It was draped by a now seemingly overcast sky, nimbus clouds spreading all over the now less blue sky, a far cry from the earlier bright rays of the sun that threatened to hurt some Vampires who were in their vans before. One by one, the Vampires stepped out of the line and received a small weapon from the Bureau of Defense members, one of them being Iolathane Durand herself. Each one found a dagger placed…
