Chapter 113 Loss Of A Friend And Lover
The door has just come to a screeching open. Now, who possibly can be next that is here to demand what is not theirs. Well, I do believe that I should not even ask such a question for I have learned that you shall get the answer that you do not which to hear.
So it is with utmost patience that we wait for the face of this person to appear that shall be next to want to kill us. And as he approaches, I look at him rather oddly.This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
"Now who shall you be?"
From next to me I hear Connor speak, but with a voice that sounds oddly puzzled, "Dick Roman. I thought we killed you?" "Well next time try to burn my head."
I look at Dean somewhat puzzled, "Why would you want to burn the man's head if he is already dead?"
"Because he can reattach it."
"Oh, I don't think if I should like or hate the creatures. But that is beside the point. What is it that you are doing here?"
"I came to see that my friends are upholding their end of the bargain. I do look forward to sinking my teeth into the Windchaser boys."
"Well," I start to explain, which I probably should not have done in hindsight. "I am afraid to tell you, Dick." I stop for one moment and chuckle to myself, the poor man, I can only imagine how he was bullied at school. But I am losing focus so I continue, "Your friends were about to bail on you."
And I should have definitely not said that for in walks another bunch, of which I presume is Levithians into the warehouse. I guess the man meant by checking, he actually meant eating. It seems that there is a buffet being serving and we are the main course. Well, I do wish I could rather be the desert. Which brings me to the fact.
"My dear Dick," yet again that chuckle. "You do know that we are Vampires?"
"My dear friend, I do not care, you were part of a deal."
"But you never intended to keep your end of it."
"Well that is pretty obvious," then though there is a whole new person in the room that catches his attention. "Who is the girl? I cannot recall a girl being in the deal. Not that I am complaining, but she seems to be Vampire too?" "That my dear Dick," yes I need to chuckle, but back to being serious once again I need to explain who the little girl is.
"She is Cassandra's idea of creating a family."
It was the year 1756, it was during this period when I foolishly thought that Cassandra was my beloved. We were, for all intent and purposes living life as a couple together and we were, at that time still fairly doing well in our relationship. Then we started to experience some problems in our relationship, and times were rather shaky and unsettled. She thought, and believe me she had alright, but she thought that I was going to leave her, which I wanted to yes. This was the period when Edward started to talk some common sense into me. Well, she saw the changes in our relationship and thought that if we had a child, which is impossible for a Vampire, but she thought if we had a child that it shall bring us closer together. So what she did go out to do, is to get us one. Now there is no such thing as a bird bringing you a baby, she went and got herself a child her way.
So lured a poor child away from her mother one night and dragged her into an alley, and as we all know what happens there, she had bitten the child and changed her. Now for a child that pain is rather unbearable, I thought that the poor girl would never make it, but she surprised me and she did. And with this, I all of a sudden had this child in my home.
Now I will be honest that I did grow fond of the kid, but it was wrong to me. There was no reason for her to have gone and done so, yet she did not see the problem with her actions. So I did the thing that any father, even though I was not really hers, but I remained there for her. Then as Edward started to convince me more and more of the illusion that I was living under, I made the hard decision to leave the child behind and go my own way.

Yes, this did make me feel somewhat of a big sorrow, but it consoled me to know that at least, even though it was not the best, but she had someone that shall look after her. Now I always thought that one day she too would see past Cassandra, but I seem to be fairly mistaken.
This though is one that is going to require a great deal of explaining to Anastasia. It seems that there is always some small matter that shall surface itself. The thing is though, how on earth should you remember all when you are a man of my age.
So this brings us back to the present situation, this man Dick, yes it still gets me. But this man probably thought that she is some young meat. Well, he has been fairly mistaken. What else he should consider himself as fairly mistaken is that the Windchaser boys have themselves now freed their hands and all chaos is about to break loose.
They immediately launch to their feet, with Ethan keeping his attention on the Levethian, Connor goes to untie Anastasia and the Vampire Hunter.
"Now look here," I say as I loudly count out loud, "It seems that we are five against three."
Then as if she wants to enlighten me, Cassandra confidently says, "You cannot count, we have two men at the back."
I only but laugh at her and she turns to see what I do find so funny, "They in fact really just left when our Levithian friend decided to show up."
"Well then they have a problem," Dick explains, "My group of my followers most definitely feasted on them already."
My body slightly shudders but I do know that there is no way that he or his followers are leaving here today, we, and with emphasis on the Windchaser boys, they will not stop until every one of these monsters has been exterminated. While Connor focuses on bringing down the Levithian, with I might add is a great skill, for he does it so elegantly in one smooth moment, just chopping his head off as if it is a hobby in his spare time. Then again this is what the boys do all the time. Once he has taken care of Dick, Connor and him proceed to the back to take on whatever awaits them there.
Anastasia takes the girl to the side, not to kill, we shall find her a good home that is not with a delusional Vampire.
The Vampire Hunter goes for Cassandra, well I hope he knows that he is in for a hard battle as I have taught her well.
As for me, well, I am taking on a friend, which I truly feel troubled with doing. But he was going to kill me so as they say and eye for an eye. In this case a heart for a heart.
I am the first to launch at him, elegantly yet with great speed, I attack his body with great force. Now of course I should kill him instantly, which I know I can do fairly easily, but I want to play a bit. So I slam my hand into his chest and drive him into the far side wall within only mere seconds.
He retaliates, as I want him to, for it is no fun playing by yourself, he grabs me by the shirt and scrunches his fingers rather tightly. He flings me through the air and I land with a loud thud. There is a sting that shoots through my body, not pain but the adrenaline of enjoying this far too much.
As he walks towards, finding his own dagger from the back, I jump to my feet, and with great precision, I kick it from his hand. He scurries to grab it from where it has skid over the floor. I am the first to get to it. I slowly push it towards him, of course, a battle is not fair if you both do not have weapons.
So we take a stance, ready to move forward to attack. He flings his hand wildly through the air and cuts a rather deep gash into my arm. I only but laugh at him and return the favor.
He leaps in a great jump and brings the dagger but mere inches away from my heart. He drives deep, but he misses. I slowly lean into his body and plunge my dagger straight on target. And with a sad but yet relieved mind, I let him drop to the floor. "Goodbye, my dear friend."
