He had lost himself in the sensation, to the point he could no longer hear Driselda. He only heard the pulse, the beating of the man's heart, which had grown quite rapid in order to compensate for the sudden loss of blood.

He wouldn't have stopped. But as if something had stopped him, he jumped back, still crouched but breathing rather heavily. He looked as though he was frightened, his pupils thin and slitted like an angry cat.

He slowly looked up at the elder, slowly calming down. "I'll be able to sustain off that.. For a bit.." he breathed. "I won't kill him.."

"Trust me.. I did not want to stop.." He muttered, wiping his chin with his thumb. He was grateful that she had at least bandaged him up. His mind was still buzzed from the sensation of draining the life away from the human.

"Less crazy.. Which I'm not sure if that is a good thing.." He joked slightly, grinning. His fangs were still out, although he acted as if he didn't notice it.

"But you see that's the weird thing.." He muttered, entering the room, his crimson hues only glancing at the coffin slightly. "I've not been effected by the sunlight.. I have been able to move about during the day, although the sun is a bit brighter than it use to be.." He murmured quietly. "Is that natural?"

The man hissed as he felt the scratch, glaring at the woman.

Not normal? He merely sighed and nodded. "Fine fine.. G'night.." He muttered turning around to the coffin. It didn't sit well with him, sleeping in the place where the dead rest. But technically he was dead.. Or was he?

He merely sat in a corner and closed his eyes, folding his arms across his chest as he dozed.

Vankoryth Détente

A faction of vampyric creatures who reign over the Cursed Wood. "Expect from thy blood no more than thy blood expects from thee."

A single note magically appeared and landed on the center table. It read...

"Meet me in the Room of York"

...the note was signed by Zosimos, and was intentionally addressed to all.

The Forces Vankoryth poured in through the front doors as Descorp evacuated the planet completely. With what technology was left, the whole entire structure was seized by it's occupants.

"Setcher p'sitions!" Ulrich's harsh voice climbed the walls. From his pocket he pulled a piece of technology. Quickly, he found the single red button that would detonate the emergency message.

"Make sure them royals'r safe," He commented to a soldier at his side. Silently, Ulrich thumbed the button. The message was sent out. He turned for the stairs, barking.

"Detahnt!" Ulrich shouted, "Bad news n'such!" Soldiers hustled around.

The man walked with little purpose of being in this place, a man lost of will and passion. A man that had been forsaken of all he held dear. But his steps were silent and with the wavering colored cloak he wore, it would seem he would blend into the background just enough before another limb moved, giving away his location once again. His red eyes searched around for the sound. The sound that was almost deafening to any vampire without any experience on how to dampen the noise. He had gotten use to it by this point.

He had the looks of a hunter that had seem combat for most of his life, and even if he had little purpose, he still held himself with the dignity of a lion. He released the unnecessary breath in a soft sigh, watching the woman practice on the training dummy.

The man seemed to fade in and out of existence with the cloak that was wrapped around his broad shoulders. It seemed to shift colors between grey, green and a faded blue, but it was enough to almost blend him in completely into the areas around him. If he stood still, it was quite possible he could become unseen altogether.

Alek barely visited this place. He had not the nerve to come this close to his destruction that often, and only really came in search of small jobs or trying to find someone who sold things he would need. It happened to be that today, he needed to have repairs done to his weapons.

It would also happen to be the day that Ulrich started shouting about bad news. The man's crimson hues shifted over to Ulrich and decided it might be best to figure out what was going on. Stepping more swiftly than his deliberately slow pace before, he would attempt to catch up to Ulrich, his cloak making him look rather eerie as he faded in and out of sight.

"What is going on now?" Alek's usually gruff voice sounded a bit more harsh than normal. His question was almost a command, although he had no rank in this place.

"The fuh inn't goin' on," Ulrich grumbled back, eyeballing the squads as they worked their way through the Castle Vankoryth. He grimaced as, upstairs, one of the paintings shrieked. That happened rarely, and this time it did not stop.

"Foreign forces touchin' down all o'er Terra. Were y'at the meetin' in that Room of York?" A piece of technology at his hip began to wail. Ulrich cursed again and looked over Alek. He hadn't really seen him around too often, and in all the excitement his memory was failing him. There was no mistaking the smell, however. The paging device was more than happy to continue it's chorus with the painting upstairs until Ulrich dealt with it.

"Ah shit," More horrible news of course. He turned to the kid. Reisel Dracul had texted him something urgent.

"D'y know what the hell a zomborg is?" Ulrich shook his head, staring at the text, but then looking hopefully to Alek.

The noise was almost too much. Alek would have given his left arm in order to stop it all or be able to find a nice quiet corner. But alas, was any place quiet anymore?

"I was preoccupied at the time the meeting in the Room of York was called." He stated firmly, leaving off his state of business but it was obvious he would not explain further. He remained calm, even through all the chaos that was surrounding him. Like a man that did not frighten easily.

The hunter furrowed his brows at Alrich when he cursed as more news flowed through. "That is not an answer." He stated firmly.

"Remind me what the details are." Alek muttered, although his expression stated he knew all too well what the man was probably talking about, and it left a bad taste in his mouth. "And what can I do?"

The hunter barely moved, causing his cloak to make him seem invisible to the room. The corner of his lips pulled into a smirk. "Spying? No. Watching... Maybe." His voice was deep, gruff and seemed to echo even though he was talking softly. "Was here hoping to find a weapon repair shop, although I was.. Unable to receive assistance. Seems my type isn't quite welcome here." He grumbled, the smirk pulling down into a frown.

He reached out a hand towards the woman. "Though, those are are nice weapons you have there. Never seen anything like it."

The man watched as her weapons returned to normal. He slowly shifted his cloak and pulled out a leather sack. Pieces of metal clanked inside as he shifted it, handing it to her. "Normally I could repair it. I build the damned thing. But trying to find the parts I need is like trying to pull hen's teeth." He explained. "Seems the constant wars that happen here has caused a shortage of supply in some parts."

With a slow nod of his head, he return the greeting. "I am known as Alek." He muttered. He seemed disappointed with his own name, or disappointed in himself at least, releasing his answer with a sigh. "If you can repair it, I will pay you handsomely." Inside the sack, parts of a gun lay in scattered pieces, as if it had been chopped up.

"I was attacked.. And my own abilities have changed so recently, I may have been a bit more rough on it than I should have.. My strength has tripled. But the werewolf was strong too." He murmured.

"It seems that there is always war in this city. Always something that needs weapons.." He sighed an unnecessary sigh. He had not given up the things that had made him human before. "Do you think you can fix that?"

"I don't need it immediately. But sooner rather than later would be appreciated." He said. "Is there any way you could reinforce the structure to withstand the abuse I tend to put it through?" He asked. His posture seemed to relax a bit.

"No peace.. Not while monsters like myself still live.." He muttered, although it was not intended for her to hear.

The man took it quietly, inspecting it with a slight nod. "I shall visit you soon, then. I will need to have this tuned up sooner than later.." He muttered quietly. "I appreciate it."

The man nodded and took her hand firmly with his gloved one. He smirked slightly, in an odd attempt to smile. "I'll hold you to that." He chuckled tiredly.

"Me too," Ulrich said gruffly despite the smile. He wasn't one for meetings, or anything formal. A military man, who kept his eggs where they belonged: With the guns. The chaos continued to caterwhurl around them. Ulrich remained like a stone in the sea.

The smile dropped, and Ulrich shook his head once. It was clear this Detente member wasn't amused by the news, not like he expected him to be. Onto the answers. No nonsense was something he could appreciate in an individual, but damn was it difficult to get his kicks

"Taiyou, huntin' the Aschen all over the place. Touchin' down on that meetin'n' demandin' Daemala," Ulrich shot a soldier a sharp look as he almost upended a vase of roses in his haste, and eyed another as he rocketed down the stairs.
"As fer zomborgs, well I ain't eve-PICK THAT UP!- I ain't encountered anythin' like it, but if ye'd like to get in on tha' we've got soldiers at th'border 'tween Wing City an' the Cursed Wood. In them slums."

Ulrich pivoted the phone to show the text from Reisel.

_FORT; Border = slums / cursed wood (zomborgs, riots)

"Zomborgs n' riots. S'like a party out there."

Alek couldn't help but give a faint smile at the barking officer. If they had met at a bar instead of a worrisome event, they could probably have had a beer or two and swap stories for a while. He seemed to be the kind of person he would have gotten along with.

Not person. They were not humans anymore.

His smile fell quickly. "I see." The man shrugged slightly. Narrowing his eyes, he read the text and nodded. "I think I'll go help on that front then. You know where to find me if you need me for other things." He said gruffly, turning to head out of the castle. He would only slow if Ulrich called for him, although neither had been introduced.
