Chapter 24
"How did these werewolves discover this hideout? My men are loyal, what went wrong? Was this a bad idea?" Eric wondered as he heard "We are being attacked!"
He had sent Henry to go and guard the human because she was what mattered to him now. He needed to teach Logan a lesson and he couldn't think of a better way other than this. With Henry, he was certain that nothing will happen to her because he was one of his best fighters. Eric grabbed a werewolf and broke his neck. He needed to teach these werewolves a lesson. Intense fury, hatred, and anger could be seen in his eyes as he killed all the wolves he could lay his hands upon.
In their raid and all the chaos around. Tyler met with Logan.
"There is a big problem," Logan said as he grasped for breath with vampire slimy blood dripping all over his hands.
"Have you found her?"
"Not yet," Logan could see stains of blood splashed all over Tyler's blue shirt that was under his black jacket. "What is the problem?" Tyler asked.
"Remember the people we sent to this bastard."
"The hardened criminals on death row. Of course, I remember them."
"Good. Because he did not kill them, in other words, he turned them into vampires."
"Bloody crap!"
"Hence the reason why they are this much." Logan ran and killed the next vampire in sight.
"Tyler, look for Ashley. I will hunt Eric down."
"Worry not brother," soon they separated as they strived to defeat the vampires.
Tyler continued to search for Ashley, ripping the heart of everyone who dared to stay in his front. The rage in him reached its apex as he saw some of his favorite soldiers on the floor, soaked in their blood. Tyler continued to search for her until he came across a bus that was jiggling. As he tries to open the back door. Some wheezed past him, leaving a cut on his body.
"Bloody vampire!" Tyler cursed. The bus had stopped to jiggle. His fangs and claws were out once again as he turned to see what was attacking him. It had disappeared into the dark.
"Show your face, you coward!" The vampire chuckled from the dark. He sucked his teeth and said, "Werewolves are always naive, and scared don't you want to play anymore."
"You can only play with what you can see," Tyler replied as he made a stand trying to figure out where the words were coming from.
"But I can see you." The vampire chuckled.
"It makes the game one-sided," Tyler heard the mumbling of what seemed like Ashley from inside the car. The vampire stepped out and that was one of the largest Vampires he had ever seen.
"Whoa, aren't you guys supposed to be like average height?" Tyler laughed.
"Wait till you see my boss," The vampire brought his tongue out to lick his lips as he had just seen the food of the century.
"Eric! Show your face, you coward!" Logan shouted as he wandered around the garage. Tired of seeing vampires that were not the ones he was looking for. Logan remembered the last time he fought with Eric, he recalls his height and everything about his appearance. Logan destroyed everything around him looking for Eric and praying that Tyler had made progress with Ashley. He needed to finish this up so he could get a very nice sleep with the love of his life beside him. All of a sudden, Logan passed out on the floor.
The giant vampire started to battle Tyler. Claws, fangs, rage, and a quest for survival could be heard all over the place. Henry was stronger and faster than Tyler. The werewolf knew that he needed to be smart to survive this sprawl. After the first round of inflicting pain on each other. Both Henry and Tyler were out of breath. "I just want the girl," Tyler said.
"Are you already begging for mercy?" Henry asked.
"Hell no. I just wanted to ask if you were willing to die for someone you know nothing about."
"You came searching for her. She must be special." Henry licked his teeth.
"We all have people who are special in our lives," Tyler picked up a stake on the floor.
"Do you think that will save you from the inevitable?" Henry scoffed.
"Why don't you come and see," Tyler said as he began to turn the stake upside down. Transferring it from one hand to the other. Henry attacked Tyler and put him to the ground. Tyler tried to protect himself with the other rod in his hand, preventing Henry's sharp fangs from piercing his neck. Tyler was able to push Henry over, rolling away from Henry. Tyler stood up and tried to piece Henry's heart with the sharp end of the rod. He missed by some inches because of Henry's swiftness. Soon the both of them were on their feet. Henry noticed how Tyler was breathing heavily and realized how weak Tyler was.
This was his opportunity to finish the werewolf once and for all. Unfortunately, as he rushes to reap Tyler's heart out. He felt a sharp object piercing through his stomach, preventing his hands from touching Tyler's skin. Tyler took some pace backward giving him a five feet gap away from the vampire. He removed the stake from Henry's stomach and sent it back into Henry; This time aiming a little higher, sending Henry to the floor. Tyler was not satisfied, he removed the stake and began to drive the rod into Henry's heart repeatedly making it impossible for the vampire to ever wake up again. There he was, laying in a pull of blood, his pale face white and every one of his veins visible enough to know he was dead.
On the other hand, Logan's eyes were opened as he saw the large figure pacing around the room with his hands strapped to a chair. A figure he recognized so well, the same person that had given him hell for a very long time, giving him sleepless nights, agony, and pain. This time, Logan believed that the gods were favoring him because Logan was the one strapped to the chair.
"Logan, long time no see... do not think about anyone saving you because I have killed all the werewolves that I came in contact with," Logan recognizes the voice so well.
"You have made my job easier by coming to your death place yourself." Eric stepped closer to Logan and began to punch him massively. Grasping for breath, Logan called the only name that was on his mind "Ash.. Ashley" he struggled to speak.
"Poor soul. She would have survived if not for your diligence. Now she will die a quick death," Eric laughed.
"If... you... are"
"Oh hold that crap, you can't even speak well and you believe you can beat me. What a pity," Eric shook his head, Logan looked at Eric's eyes and all he could see was a disgustful look. Logan tried so hard to set himself free
"You would have been an amazing vampire and we could be feared all over the central city but no. You chose to be a hero, forgetting that heroes always die at the end." Eric landed a punch on Logan's stomach.
"Logan! Logan!" Tyler shouted looking for his best friend. Eric heard the voice and knew there was someone left.
"I will be right back," he walked out of the room where he had kept Logan.
"Tyler! Run for your life!" Logan summoned all the strength that was inside of him, hoping and praying that his best friend will survive the beast that was coming for him. After a while, he started to hear the shattering of glass and everything breakable in the garage.
A face, that he hadn't seen in a while walked into the room. The reason for all this chaos was present in Logan's front, he closed his eyes and reopened them to be sure he was not dreaming. She ran to his back trying to untie him.
"Tyler is no match for Eric, you need to save him," Ashley said as she breathed heavily. There was a little delay, she could not untie him because Eric had tied Logan with a chain, she believed he had the key. She began to look for alternatives in the room. Luckily she stumbled upon a big chisel and tried hard to break the small lock that held the chain together. She was triumphant over the small lock after a period that seemed like it was forever for the both of them.
Logan alongside Ashley followed the sound and soon appeared in a scene that favored none of them but Eric. Tyler was gasping for breath on the ground as Eric continued to hit him repeatedly with a large harmer.
"Why don't you take someone your size?" Logan shouted.
"It's about time, the whole thing was soon becoming so boring," Eric said as he headed towards Logan's location with the harmer.
"Be careful, Logan," Ashley shouted as she headed towards Tyler who she wasn't sure will survive. Logan narrowly escaped the harmer swing that aimed for his head by bending down. Before Eric could bring the harmer, Logan jumped and gave him a superman punch, throwing Eric a little off-balance. He followed him as he started to punch Eric furiously.
Ashley and Tyler moved away and watched the two of them fight from a distance.
Eric pushed Tyler and stood on his feet. They continued to fight each other, moving swiftly from one place to the other.
Eric finally picked Logan and flung him away. "Do you think you are any match for me?" As he picked up his hammer and headed in Logan's direction.
"I will kill you, and all your friends
"Logan!"
Logan stood up before Eric got to his place. His long claws of a werewolf were out. His fangs as a vampire were out. This was his only way out. Eric became shocked as he realized he was fighting a hybrid but he was not the only one that was shocked because even Ashley all suddenly became shocked at what she saw. Her lover was a hybrid.
Her mouth opened agape, Tyler raised his hand and pushed her chin to close her mouth. Logan continued to turn into a gigantic brown and white wolf. He became super fast as he began to chase down Eric. The scale of this fight tipped in Logan's favor. Even though he was sure it will come with a price. Finally, he got Eric on the floor and began to tear him into pieces after reaping his heart out.
