La... Lalalala la... La la... Lala... La.. Lalala La... Lala... Lala~
The soothing melody continues through the majestic corridors of an intriguing building. A woman in red sits down nonchalantly in a dinner table as she drinks a thick purple drink.
I expect nothing more than my grandchildren to have such... beautiful voice... How ironic that such voice brings more soul to this place than what it sets out to be, decorated.Don't you agree, Frank?
Before the pale man next to the red haired woman answers, a tall figure with leather jacket and fedora walks in. "Consider me surprised. Your plan worked. He found it."
The woman replies with a charming smile.
Perfect.
...
...
BANG!
After that one loud bang, grew silence around the area. Then there's the distraught expression made by each of the vampire hunters, witnessing what's in front of them. "You've g-got to be kidding me!"
The mysterious man bit the bullet with it's glistening white teeth. "Now, that hurt... It really does. But, don't worry... I liked it. I needed it. And you know what a man's gotta do when he's given a favor... They pay you back."
Paula receives another call back in Jeffrey, which she immediately picks up. "What's up?"
"Goddamnit, Paula! When the hell are you guys coming?!" The man in the call says as audible screams and gunshots can be heard through the phone. "What's the deal with this guy?! You said he killed Law. The f**k did you guys do?" The man says with an exasperated tone.
Paula urges to get GDA involved before she looks at Alex with a panicked face, remembering something Alex said about his ties with Gwendolyn Dietrich. "Call your cousin. Call GDA. We need them involved. We have no idea what this thing can do." Alex nods in response as he begins texting Gwendolyn.
"I don't know, Paula. If GDA wants to trace all of this, they'll probably figure out our operation is linked to those notes and that killer. They could take us down if we're caught. After all, we ain't officials." Kai explains in a concerned tone.
Paula makes a serious face before nodding no. "We'll see what happens first. Let's get to the town first before things starts to get really messy."
"Urghh!! She's not replying!" Alex then taps the call button as he puts his phone near his ear, waiting for Gwen to pick up. After a while with Gwen not picking up, he then checks a website on his phone and realizes Gwen is currently performing one of her shows. "Of all the time this could've happened. It has to be right now!"
...
"Wake up, Peterson! Wake up!" A man yells out as he shakes Peterson. He slowly opens his eyes and notices the chaos behind the man trying to wake him up. "Come on, man! We gotta get you outta here, you got hit in the head."
"N-no... I'm fine." Peterson slowly stands up as he grabs his gun. "How many bullets did we already spray at this f**ker?, Tony?" Peterson then aims and shoots at the man flying and attacking the vampire hunters around the park.
"I don't know, man. But this guy can't be all invincible. We just need to take him down!" Tony aims a bow at the man as an arrow flies towards him and it explodes directly into his face. It caught the attention of the man as he looks towards Tony and Peterson.
"That really hurt... I'm gonna kill you for that!" As the man flies towards the two of them, Peterson instinctively throws a Molotov cocktail on the ground as fire erupts in front of them. The man quickly stops as he shows an irritated face at the sight of the flames near him. "How did-... You've got to be kidding me!"
The three have finally arrived and Paula happens to witness the man retreating from the fire. Kai begins firing after getting out of the car. The man makes an enraged face as he holds his head with his two hands, looking down on the ground. He slowly lets out an enraged yell, pointing his hand towards the car as it begins levitating upwards.
"Paula!" Alex lunges at Paula as he grabs hold of her, getting out of the car before it gets crushed by the man's use of telekinesis. Paula looks at Alex as they land on the ground but not before she realizes the sound of the car upon her. The man throws the car straight to them. Paula manages to dodge it as she holds Alex and rolls from their position.
"Why can't you just die alrea- Unghh!" The man said as Kai shoots a high caliber handgun onto the man's head.
"Alex, I think he's weak to fire. I think. We have a flamethrower but it's in my apartment. Help me get it." Paula stands up as she runs straight towards her apartment. "Keep him busy, Kai!" Kai looks at Paula running to the apartment as he nods, Alex would soon follow her.
The man notices Paula and Alex running towards their apartment as he tilts his head with curiosity. "What the hell are they gonna do... Oh, no you don't!" The man dashes towards the two but Tony jumps onto him and holds him down. He then punches the man's face multiple times before having his stomach impaled by the man's own hand. The man kicks Tony as his entire body flings onto a nearby building's wall.
"Noo!!" Peterson yells out as he grabs another molotov cocktail, only for the man to grab him by the hand and breaks his arm. As Peterson falls onto the ground, the man lits up the molotov as he drops it near Peterson's body.
"Hey!" Kai stands at a far distance, shooting the man with his pistol once more. "Come get me! I'm right here!"
The man notices Kai's far distance as he looks at Paula and Alex entering the apartment building. He smirks as instead of going for Kai, he flies towards the apartment. As the man reaches inside the building, he listens closely as he detects loud footsteps on the floor exactly on top of him. He flies straight towards the ceiling as a woman in the room he broke through screams. The man gestures a shush before leaving. He looks around but his listening made him realize louder noises on the upper floor. He flies through once again as he sees Alex running into a room exactly at the perfect time. He smirks devilishly before running towards their room. As soon as he arrives at the open door, he's awaited by a flamethrower aimed at him as he quickly dodges before the fire could hit him.
"Goddamn it! I knew it... You knew that I'm vulnerable to fire. You are one cheeky little mouse, haha!" As Paula exits the room she's in, the man tackles Paula but before he could do anything, Alex kicks him from behind. "Get the hell off her!" Alex pulls the man away, with the man responding with a swift hit on Alex's face. Alex lets go of the man as he gets kicked which sends him flying towards a wall.
Paula grabs the flamethrower as she fires it towards the man. The man quickly runs to Alex as he holds his head and neck, Paula gasps at his actions. "What the hell are you doing?"
"Now now... Fire that thing towards me and I'll make sure this guy gets it too." The man said as he grips Alex's neck tightly.
"N-nghh... D-do it... Paula... Just shoot it. Do it... I'll be fine." Paula looks in shock as Alex lets out those words. Her hands begin shaking as she walks closer towards them.
Alex suddenly punches the man as hard as he could, making him let go of Alex. He runs towards Paula as the man instinctively do the same, with the man exactly going behind Alex, unable to make Paula fire at him. He then kicks at Alex and lunges at Paula, hitting her in the head.
"Y'know. I'm really gonna enjoy killing you two. With my own hands, of course." The man grabs the flamethrower and throws it out of the building through the open balcony. He looks at Paula but before he could do anything, Kai arrives just in time as he bashes the man's head with a metal bat.
"Urghhh!" Kai kicks the man onto a hallway but is eventually overpowered by the man's brute strength. The man grabs hold of Kai's neck and throws him onto a room. Before he could go in, he looks at Alex tending to Paula. The man approaches the two and puts them towards the balcony. With the two on the balcony, Alex looks down to see the flamethrower. He then looks at Paula.
"You're gonna have to trust me on this... The flamethrower."
"What..." Paula said before Alex holds her as he throws himself and Paula off the building. Alex lands from behind, with Paula shielded. "Holy s**t... What the hell, Alex."
"The flamethrower..." Alex said weakly as he groans in pain. Paula looks at the flamethrower and quickly gets hold of it. The man looks at Paula but instead of flying away, he lunges straight towards her, intending to kill her slowly. He pins her down, with the flamethrower still on her grasp.
"You're done for, Red..." Paula said with utter hatred.
"Red... I like that name... Haha... Don't worry... I'll make use of a name like that once you're de- Arggh!" The man gets shot in the face. He notices an angry mob in front of him, all holding guns and aiming at the man. Paula rolls away as she fires the flamethrower at the man. Finally, for once, the man screams in pain as he's consumed by fire. He flies away and lands on the park, trying to claw through the dirt. Before he could finish, Paula fires the flames once again towards the man. He slowly disintegrates as dark ashes fly towards the direction of the wind. Paula and Alex watches as Alex sighs in relief.
Once nighttime arrives, Paula and Alex are having a conversation in a bar near the park. Both seemingly having a nice time despite such traumatic events happening beforehand.
"Man... What a rough day it is... Y'know, this is the first time I see Kai with those neck thingies, thank god he made it out safely. But of course, we lost people too. You're coming to the burial right? I'm sure you have more than enough time to spend in this town." Paula said, it seemed like Alex told enough about his situations in life throughout their conversation in the bar.
"Yeah. After the burial, surely I'd stay here for a while. I mean.... It gave enough impact on me." Once they leave a silent pause in the middle of their conversation, Alex offers Paula to go to his place.
"Wait... What?" Before Paula could respond to such offer, Alex grabs her by the hand anyways and starts running out of the bar, laughing as he does so. Paula joins in on the laughter. "Oww... My back."
Once at his place. Alex and Paula sit on the sofa, with Alex looking straight into her eyes. "Uum... I've been thinking about a lot of things. Mostly my future. You really taught me how to be strong. And once I'm out of this place, I think you're the only thing I'm not willing to let go of."
"I..." Paula can't seem to follow up with any answers.
"I think what happens today made me a stronger person than before. And I don't think I could've been like that if it wasn't for you. It might be selfish but. I really needed it." Alex said with a rather desperate tone, Paula responds with a pitiful smile.
"You know... I've been through a lot and this might be the first time I could overcome all that. Do you... really think we need each other?"
"Yes! Of course! What would I have done without you. Y'know, I bet if i told Gwen about all the stuff we've been through and the work you put without even expecting a single dime from anyone, I'm sure you and me could become official. We can go higher than this. Please... let's just stay together. I need you."
Paula looks away as her smile briefly turns to a frown before it immediately turns back to a smile again. "Alex... I think you-"
...
...
...!
Before Paula could let out another word, the walls holding the building together suddenly flies towards the two. Before they could realize it, a giant fiery explosion occurs as Alex flies through the opposite wall, dazed and temporarily paralyzed. The entire wall that got hit by the explosion entirely collapses.
"P-paula?"
