"That is not the type of language a proper woman uses Mercy!" Said Valdreth laughing. Mercy turned and said," If only I was proper." A werewolf then charged at him and Mercy watched as he stepped to the side she then began shooting it it. The werewolf turned around as Mercy walked forward shooting rounds. The wolf then made a bee line for Mercy. Mercy backed up and fired one shot to the head of the wolf. He fell to the ground at her feet, Mercy looked up at Valdreth and said," You can thank me later." She laughed as she knew he really didn't need her help at all. She turned back around and started shooting into the crowd.

"Well, maybe we should work on that Mercy." Said Valdreth as he turned back and engaged in combat once more. "I mean, look at me! You have not, and will not hear me curse in such a vulgar way." The lycan he ws fighting fell and he turned to another and his voice was muttled by the roars of the beasts.

Mercy ran back to the black bag and reloaded as she did she yelled back at Valdreth," HAHAHAHA Valdreth I never knew you to be a proper lady. I bet you have a lot built up!" Mercy then went back to shooting into the crowd.

"Clever remark my girl!" Valdreth chuckled. "But actually no. I have no 'build up' as you say. I merely find other words to express my anger."

Revenant came in a bounding leap over the heads of two lycans, who he turned and severed from their bodies in a single movement. He would land in a crouch before standing and moving to his next target. A large growl would sound behind him and he whirled about to see a larger lycan comming toward him. It roared and lunged at him. Revenant smoothly to the side and caught it by the hair on the back of its head. He lifted it and took hold of its thoat, turning it to face him, and with that he squeezed and crushed every bone in the creatures neck.

"Valdreth! Quit talking and kill these monsters, would you?!"

Keagan kept in step. Holding of the beasts advancements. Using his fist and bullets the Lycan horde kept back.

Everything seemed to be going well until another howl pierced out into the sky. It was coming from behind. Keagan turned around, with fear in his heart. The pitch and resonance was uncanny.

Bounding off from the rooftops, came seven men with massive Claymore swords hanging at their back. The asphalt cracked beneath there feet as they came closer. Thick black cloaks covered over their heads and body. Metal masks covered over there faces, with their yellow glowing eyes staring blankly at Keagan. Thomas took notice of the thumping foot step, looking over his shoulder.

"Keagan, who are those guys." Thomas asked as he stepped slowly from the crowd.
"Uh....I think thier the Knight's Bane." Keagan shuddered,failing to keep his cool.
"The what!?"
"Umgh... we need go."
"Why?! we're winning!" Keagan stepped back, gripping his gun tighter. He rotaed back Thomas Thomas roaring out to him,
"We are leaving now!" Thomas stopped his advancement, realizing that Keagan was truly scared. The Knights stepped slowly getting closer and closer to the group, pulling their Claymores over their backs. The glow of sliver, gleamed off the Knights' blades in the moon light.

Keagan looked around, trying to find a way out. City slums surrounded them on both sides of the street. He took a deep breath and ran to his right, rushing toward one of the buildings' door.
"What are you doing?" Thomas asked following behind, as he took a shot at the advancing pack.
"Just follow me." Keagan slammed his body against the door, over and over, until it burst open. "Alright Get Will and Reen and stay on my back."

Thomas shook his head, and ran over picking up Will, "Come on big guy, ups-a-daisy." Pulling him over his shoulder, Thomas cried out to Mercy. "Mercy hey! Get Reen, were getting out off here," He looked over at the Stelfire brothers. "Rev, Val! cover or tail."

"I am fighting! Have you ever heard of a thing called multi-tasking?!" Valdreth yelled to his brother as he shoved his sword through a lycan's head. Thomas then called to them and valdreth made his way over to the group so he could defend them from the onslaught.

"What, you're retreating?! There had better be a good reason for this Thomas!" Revenant shouted in menacing tones. "Valdreth, defensive retreat plan six!" He roared. The two Stellfire brothers then dissipated into a thick layer of fog, surrounding their enemies. The wolves and yellow eyed knights stopped for a second as though confused, but soon started their advance to the others again. It was not long for an anguished cry came from a lycan in the midst of his fellows. Valdreth had whirled back into existance only to send a blade through the gut of the werewolf and dissapear again. Revenant would drop out of his ethrel form and send his fist flying into the head of another with suchforce that he got a fist full of lycan brains. The attacks then sped up and no one knew where they would attack next. That was untill Revenant appeared in front of one of the knights. A gauntleted hand shot out to grab his coat and pull him closer. Revenant sneered at the knight and his hands grasped the mask he wore. "The coat is italian, hands off!" And with that he crushed the metal of the mask into the knight's skull. "Hurry up and get gone Thomas!"

The as the bodies lay still, the Knights amour cracked upon the asphalt. Keagan watched from the window as the brothers fought the Knights. "Damn it." Thomas passed by kicking down a door,
"What?"
"The Knights of Bane aren't you everyday Lycan."
"What da'ya mean?" Thomas shuffled William on his shoulder trying to get on a spot that fits.
"The Knights of Bane, there something I never want to face. Some would call them Dead Bloods."
"What? you mean like a Lycan breed. Nobles and shit like that?"
"Something or other. But its not that simple. Their name means something more."
"Like what? Do they serve some guy named Bane?"
"No, their the ones who killed Bane."
"So why would they name themselves something they killed."
"Its what he gave them, that makes him note worthy." Keagan rushed passed the door, still looking out the window.
"What!?"
"Bane wasn't some Lycan. He was a Vampire Lord."
"What does that have to do with anything?"
"It has to do with everything." Keagan grabbed the rails of some nearby stairs running up the side, Thomas followed behind, mustering Williams weight. " I don't know how, or why. But when those seven lycan drank his unholy blood, they became undead."

--------------------------------------

Outside the Knights rose off the ground slowly, picking up their claymores one by one. The metal that covered over there bodies started to bend and wane. Fur peaked and cracked through the gaps, breaking the links. Keagan and Thomas watched from above as the Seven split two heading for Valdreth and three going for Revenant.

Thomas' jaw dropped watching as they got to their feet. "What the fuck are they? I just saw Rev bash his brains in."
"I know, that's why I said to get moving."
"What are telling me you've fought these guys."
"Yes, and I never could kill them. Their breastplates are too thick, the heart is there only weakness."
"Why not the head? Why, a blow brains doesn't kill them?"
"When I Lycan goes all out, it just comes down to instincts, brains aint got nothing to do with it." Thumps beat on the roof above, footsteps cracked and creaked amongst the moldy wood.
"We need to keep moving!" Thomas cried pulling Keagan to another doorway.
"Listen, just tell your friends to get out. Not they can't handles it, its just..... I don't know, just trust me."
"I don't know if Rev can stop."
"Well they just broke the first rule of the Knights. Once you try and kill them, they'll do everything in their power to do the same."


The pack below made there way around the Brothers watching as the Knights made the first move.

Almost in unison, the beast grabbed tightly on to there cloaks ripping them off their bodies. Underneath, glowing amour of Iron shimmered in the moon light, with the Scots Cross engraved in their Breastplates, with a shimmering sliver cross covering over their hearts.

Again, as one, the knights spread out their arms, riding their swords over there head, holding with their right, and supporting the blade with their left. Spreading the legs out wide, the knights stood firm, ready to attack, Their yellow eyes fading behind the shadow of their masks.

An eerie silence fell over the street, only the faint barks and yips of he packs could heard. The claymore swords started to twirl over head before the mailed Beasts swung down on the Stelfire brothers.

Thomas cried out to Mercy. "Mercy hey! Get Reen, were getting out off here," Mercy looked back at Thomas and nodded not seeing the knights yet. She ran back to Reen and grabbed her arm and threw Reen on her back and said," Hold on."

Mercy then turned and saw the knights that Thomas and Keagan where running from.Fear struck her like a tun of bricks,her legs felt weak and she was not sure if she would be able to run at this point. Suddenly She was caught up in the fog the brothers where making. She listen for Thomas and Keagan and as soon as there heavy foot steps caught her ears she ran in the direction.

When Mercy made it to the roof top she looked down and saw Rev," Rev! Val! lets go!" She turned back to Thomas and said," Thomas we can't just leave them we have to do something!"

The Stellfire brothers dissipated into fog in but an instant and solidified on the building with the others. Valdreth was furious, "That is not something we want to deal with right now, so I suggest you get out of the area!" The others stared blankly. "NOW!"

"The safe ground is not far from us. If we can make it there we'll be safe, even from those knights." Revenant moved quickly to the front of the group and crouched down. "Move fast and low, now come on."

((So how and when can I join?? ^_^))
