The dogs all landed on the ground standing up, seemingly oblivious to the factthey had been shot. They growled and charged again, intent on the slaugter of their targets.

"Tsk." Fine, have some more!

She launched two more from her shadow, one at each of the two men.

Rattus saw that the girl produced more shadow hounds. By that time, he knew what he had to do. "Neo!" he yelled to the magus, before shooting a hound twice. "She's a minion producer! I need her to be suppressed!"

"You got it, man!" Neo answered back as he shot the dog approaching at him. He then hastily produced a potion flask, and threw it at the ground near where the girl was standing, causing it to shatter. An air of vapor surrounded her when the flask broke.

The flask Neo threw contained a vaporized form of diethyl ether which, when inhaled, can cause intoxication similar to that produced by excess alcohol consumption, but more potent.

Completely oblivious to being shot, the dog continued charging. It ran up to Rattus and clamped down on his leg.

Four dogs surronded Neo, growling menacingly. They slowly converged on him, allowing no escape.

Sakura however, immediately began feeling the effects of the poison. She began swaying heavily, and after a short time, passed out.

Sakura however, immediately began feeling the effects of the poison. She began swaying heavily, and after a short time, passed out.

"Rattus-san!" Yukina called him loudly, seeing that his leg was being bitten by a shadow hound. Rattus, however, reacted by pulling out his combat knife and stabbing it at the neck.

Neo, on the other hand, produced another flask and threw it at his feet. It was a smoke bomb, and he hoped that it would blind the dogs as he charges on one direction the dogs aren't occupying.

Yukina saw that her two colleagues were being attacked by the dogs, but she also saw how Sakura was affected by the ether vapor. The cloud of vapor began dissipating quickly. And as soon as it disappear, she went near the body of the girl, pointed her dagger on her neck and yelled out at the dogs, "S-stop. Stop! Or I will k-k-kill your master!" She had no stomach for killing right now, but she has to take the chance.

The dog squealed, and released its deathgrip on Rattus' leg. It fell over, dead. However, as soon as it hit the ground, it began rapidly expanding.

The four hounds backed up, smelling the air confusedly. They began barking and howling, furious that they didn't know where their prey was.

Neo successfully escaped from his encirclement by the dogs as he walked out of the smoke. Rattus, still sitting on the floor, then yelled out to him, "Neo, firearms are ineffective. Use cold weapons!"

"Goddamn it!" Neo replied. He then drew out his butterfly knife. From there, he began finding the dogs and stealthily stabbed them fatally, one by one.

As Rattus sat on the ground, the dog he had killed finally reached its apex, and exploded. His entire left side was shredded by black shrapnel.

As the first dog was stabbed, it screamed out a shrill death cry, alerting the other three to danger. They quickly converged on the noise, and charged at Neo. They were oblivious to Yukina's warning, and simply were
Attempting to complete the last order their master had issued.

Rattus felt the explosion shred his left side. If it wasn't for his glasses, he would have been blinded. Instead, he had wounds on half of his body, which he didn't really mind. He was bloodied at this point and, therefore, incapacitated but conscious.

Neo, on the other hand, saw that the dogs have been alerted by the sound of one of their pack being killed. As they all charged at him, Neo dodged it, since they were all charging at a single direction. Neo then saw an opening and stabbed one of them fatally.

As Neo killed the second dog, the first on finished its expansion and exploded, sending black shadowy shrapnel hurtling towards his back.

Neo felt the shrapnel go through his back as the first dog exploded. "Neo, the dogs explode after death!" Rattus yelled out to him. But he, being a veteran of the World Wars and Vietnam War, didn't mind the pain from the shrapnel.

Instead, he came up with a plan. He then picked out the corpse of the second dog, which he had fatally stabbed, and threw it hard on the two other dogs, hoping to kill them with the blast.

The dog Neo threw exploded in midair, sending its shrapnel flying towards both Neo and the two remaining dogs, which died instantly with pitiful yelps.

The dog Neo threw exploded in midair, sending its shrapnel flying towards both Neo and the two remaining dogs, which died instantly with pitiful yelps.

Neo covered himself with his arms as the dog exploded and sent shrapnel towards him and the last two dogs. They were injured heavily, but it seems as if everything is now over.

Yukina then approached Rattus as he tried his best to stand up from the ground. She assisted him with this task, as it became difficult for him to do so after being incapacitated. Neo also tried helping Rattus up, even if he himself was injured from the explosions.

When Rattus got off from the ground and stood up, Yukina took his left hand and slung it over her shoulders. They were about to leave when Neo said "Wait a fuckin' second." He then approached Sakura's unconscious body and rifled through her pockets, trying to find the calling card Rattus gave her.

When Neo found it, he pocketed the card and went back to his comrades. Rattus asked him, "Why did you take the card off her?"

"Fucking bitch doesn't want help, so we take it back. 'Sides, she doesn't deserve it." Neo answered, seemingly frustrated at the girl. "Let's get the fuck outta here." As they were about to walk away, Neo interrupted "And oh, one more thing." He then walked back to her body and flipped it over, making her lie down in a prone position. He then went to a dumpster near them, just beside the girl's body and tried to search something from it. He found himself a few yards of rope, which he then used to tightly tie up her arms and legs, effectively immobilizing her even after she wakes up.

After that, Neo walked back to Rattus and Yukina and finally began walking away from her. If was obvious from the gait of the two men that they were heavily injured, but they somehow managed to begin walking away.

Butler

Smiling inside at the torment his lord had inflicted on the intruder, Butler silently carried his cleaning implements into the throne room, returned from the entrance hall. That was when Vlad chose to speak up, changing his kingly focus to the next logical matter on his mind.

"Exceptional, as always," Drăculea voiced his thoughts on the day a moment later. "I believe we shall try some recruitment, today. It was disgraceful to me that intruders could get within the castle to such an extent. The situation should, therefore, be resolved... shall we be off?"

Without hesitation, Butler nodded respectfully. He said, "Very well. I shall finish cleaning when we return," turning to prop the relevant equipment on a cabinet at a corner of the room. He locked the cabinet and stepped to the main door with haste, opening it for his master before following.

The two walked through the lone corridors of Vlad's castle at a steady rythmn, reaching the main hall before long. The bodies had been removed, the carpet replaced with an older one (only a temporary measure) and the stains the massacre had left on the stone removed for the most part.

Vlad made to descend the stairs, and Butler retrieved his lord's coat from the treated wood rack and followed closely behind to offer it to him as they walked.

"If I may make a suggestion, Lord Vlad", the servant began, helping the cold weather vestment over Draculea's form. "Though your mind is of great skill in the mystic, and I possess considerable occult knowledge myself, I believe the Order could benefit from the presence of a specialist. "

His single eye shone with a glint that brought across Butler's smile though he had no lips, and he added, "Of course, only a fittingly great mind should receive this honor; for every great work of architecture is started on strong pillars."

As they saw a wall of fire conjure in front of them, Neo got frustrated and began to complain to the voice, "Okay. Show yo' fucking self, take a look at our asses and see who's actually the one got owned bad by yo' fuckin' master."

"Neo, please. This is the reason why we got into this situation. Just let us take care of it." Rattus told him off, making the blonde magus shut up.

"Um...Please do not harm us, stranger. Neo-san and Rattus-san are heavily injured, we were just defending ourselves." Yukina pleaded.

"Yeah, that's right. We're just trying to help her, and she gave us this nasty-ass attitude instead!" Neo explained, still frustrated.

"And before that, she even threatened us with the use of force, while still trying to give aid." Rattus added.

"So yeah, she attacked first and sent out her dawgs, man." Neo continued. "It's all self-defense, damn it!"

Hamara

"I don't understand the question." He answered with a slightly askew eyebow, simply, with less emotion that he realized he should have put into it. But nonetheless, as far as Henry Barthow showed, those were his genuine thoughts. "Now quit insulting my partner, and get out."

Hamara’s eyes narrowed at the man response.  That confirmed it, either something was hiding this ‘man’s’ true nature, or something was befouling his powers.

"From my observations I detect that you are a blighted wanker," she said, her voice raising about conversational level to get the attention of others here.  She noticed some of the uniformed officers standing meekly and staring at the pale man as if they were spellbound by him.

She folded her arms across her chest and her voice rang out, as clear as a bell, "You are the police of Nexus City.  It is your duty to protect the innocent.  He is hindering you from your task.  Are you going to let that stand?"

Hamara’s looked at the woman for but a moment, almost as if judging if she truly understood what she had just said, before he turned and walked towards his brothers and sisters.  He had no more reason to stay, the monster was not here, and he has learned all he can from watching the remains of his brother’s form.

“Thou seem to misunderstand something, my fallen sister, as do thy, my brother” He said while addressing the two detectives.  However there seemed to be an odd tone as he addressed Henry, but it would be impossible to tell what exactly it meant.

As he walked towards the exit, all those that showed doubt due to Saber’s words forgot it; instead they stood at attention to Hamara, showing without a doubt would they would obey between the two, a contest between Saber’s charisma, police rank, and time spent with these men and woman, and the nature of Hamara’s existence itself.

And it was Saber’s resounding loss.

Not all battles were fought with blades and blood after all. Some battles are on a much deeper, much more fundamental level than that.

“All humans know who I am, or what I represent. I am the purest example of humanity, their protector and guardian, and I live for their sakes and their sakes alone. “He stated a simple fact that these two are unaware of. He could not blame them, for they could not see it.

He had long learned that men have difficulty putting the sentiments they feel towards him into words, for it was something beyond that on infinitely more levels.  It was a simplification of his nature, but it should prove sufficient in this situation.

“I have no desire to impede my siblings in their work; however the monster responsible will be cleansed by my light. If thou impede me…” He trailed off as he stopped and turned his head back at them.

His voice was as stone, “Then thou make yourself the enemy of mankind itself.” And with that he walked outside, having no more words to the two with the ultimatum delivered.



As Hamara left the room he noticed odd warmth in the air, warmth that was not present when he arrived.

However he paid it no mind, instead his attention was brought to a group of his siblings. However there was one thing out.

 Among them was an abomination. Her appearance was unimportant, her weapons were unimportant, and her location was unimportant.

She has fallen too far to be an acceptable existence to overlook, like that woman inside was.  This one was no longer something that can be considered human, even calling her one of his sisters would be more than any insult.

“My brothers, step away from that one.” He instructed, making the policemen look at him. And with that the police officers moved away from her without questioning him in the slightest.

And then he addressed her, “Thou are fallen, no longer human thou remain in the world. Such a thing is a crime in of itself. However, in memory of what thou once were I shall hear thine final words and commit them to memory.”

The light around him flicked, motes of pure white light hovered all around him. White light, as if they were stars that have descended to the earth itself, its beauty enraptured all the men that saw it.

Unmatchable, unparalleled, it was the light of creation itself.

“Speak, for even if thou do not thy will feel the might of creation.”
