The hunter is dragging Mikayla like an old doll. He didn't know how he arrives at the hunter base. He probably faints in the middle of the journey. It is Federica that wake him up. It is a big room and all of his group members are here including a few groups of other vampires and other night creatures. There are about seventy of them in here.
All of them are broken and being bound with silver chain. Also, there are many headless night creature in front of them.
"How?" asked Mikayla.
"All of us has been deceived by these hunters. Pretend to be weakling and when we let our guard down they strike," said Federica.
"They keep us here and kill three of us every half an hour. They will torture those vampires using light ball, lightning and use silver knife. Then they...they...," said Eliot with his head facing downwards and Mikayla could see a few drops of tears fall.
The door open and a three hunter come in. He randomly takes three vampires and hangs the chain that bound the vampire hand to the ceiling. The hunter will strip the vampires and they will slice their skin using the silver knife. Small light ball is being thrown occasionally at them. The light ball is small and will burn a small area of body part. When the vampire heals they will continue the torture. Lightning will constantly dancing inside their body and the explosion sound can be heard inside their body.
The others want to help them but they also struggle to move from the silver chain. The vampire that being torture is screaming but none of them asked to be spare. They stare at the hunter with resentment.
"Nice eyes you got there. Cyan eyes, you are not a pure vampire yet act like one. I amazed." The hunter scoop the vampire eyes and two bloody holes appear. The vampires didn't cry but laugh instead.
The other hunter feels the situation is not right and directly throw a bigger light ball and the vampire turn into ashes.
"You nearly kill us all. She was almost able to activate the spell. "
"Sorry, she has pretty eyes. I would like to add it to my collections."
"Her eyes are cursed. Check the others whether they have a hidden curse on their body."
The hunters decapitate the three vampires and they proceed to check the other vampire. They call their friends to help. One hidden curse could kill all of them. The check all the night creatures and when its time for Mikayla turn they startled.
"You are not a night creature!"
"Why did they capture this boy? Is there a mistake?"
"A half?"
One of the hunters gets close to Mikayla and sniff him. "No. He is not a night creature or a human."
One of the hunters runs out to ask about Mikayla. After a while, he comes back with their leader.
"Where is the boy?"
"He is here." The hunter lift Mikayla and put him in front of the leader.
"This is the boy that kills our spy? Too young and... You are not a vampire."
"Sir, I have investigated him, about a few months ago there are rumours that saying there is a noble family adopted a human child in their family."
"He is not human but a Wing." The hunter that brought Mikayla comes inside the room. He is wearing a black coat and his bearing as a vampire hunter truly outstanding.
The night creatures can sense that the hunter has killed many of their kin. The despair and resentment of those creatures have sunk and moulded with him. He is a true vampire hunter. The hunter stands beside his leader and scrutinizes Mikayla that is laying on the ground.
The leader is hearing the information regarding Mikayla and he squats down.
"It must be hard for you staying with those monster."
Mikayla turn his head to see the leader wondering what is the leader doing? His confuse face makes the leader frown.
"You like to be with those monsters? You are adopted by them after all."
"They are my family."
"Hah! Family? What those monster know about family? They are just a bunch of monsters." said the hunter and kick Mikayla's abdomen. Mikayla cough a series of blood.
"No need to be so hard. He is just a boy. He probably didn't know the hideous side of his so-called family."
"Leader, no need to be soft-hearted. He lives with those monster so he is one of them."
The hunter is pissed and wanted to vent his anger. He walks towards the group of chained night creatures and chooses a ghoul. In front of them, he tears the ghoul body like tearing a paper. Scream echo from the ghoul the other night creatures also scream because the ghoul pains resonate with them. They can feel his despair.
The hunter brought the dying ghoul in front of Mikayla. "This creature that you called family. They feast on human flesh. Wing creature is similar to human. Many of Wing creature nowadays has human blood in their blood. Yet, you have the nerve to called them family."
"You know nothing. It is up to me who I consider as family." Mikayla's word makes Eliot and the Blade family member feels a sharp pain in their heart. They have never considered Mikayla as one of them. Never! They only polite to him because great grandfather Tristan is protecting him.
The leader holds Mikayla chin "You have been strayed by those monster. Kill him!" The leader didn't spare any glance anymore towards Mikayla and directly walk towards the door. The hunter gladly doing his job and once again he kicks Mikayla but this time Mikayla is flying to the back and falls on Federica.
Federica faces turn grim. If she has the rose then all of them able to escape and will not be stuck in this situation. The rose is under Elder Mia care and she is biased when distributing the rose. Some group receive it but unfortunately, her group are not lucky. She clenches her fist until her nail pierce her palm.
Mikayla is getting weaker but his mind is clear. Determination shown in his eyes. All that he thinks now is how to survive. The hunter once again approach Mikayla and he grabs Mikayla's hair and drag him but Federica bites the hunter's hand the hunter startled and let go of Mikayla's head.
The hunter shifts his attention towards Federica and slap her. Eliot is furious "YOU DARE!" His scarlet red eyes glowing intensely. His aura surge up and separate the hunter from his sister. The hunter smiled as he watches Eliot raging with mad.
The other hunters start to moves toward them and join forces. The leader feels the surge of Eliot's aura and stop. He feels alarmed. There is another magic aura but it is faint. He turns around but unable to trace where the second magic aura comes from.
"Jump! Leave the ground!" shouts the leader. Hearing that all the hunters jump upward but they feel their body is getting numb and start decaying. In a few seconds, most of the hunters falls to the ground. Only three hunters floating in the air. The leader, his assistance and the hunter that want to kill Mikayla. At that time Mikayla is supported with trees, root and branches. They have taken the shape of a chair. Mikayla is sitting there confronting the three hunters.
The night creatures is shocked. They can feel the dark aura around Mikayla. Mikayla clench his fist and all the silver chain that bound all the night creatures is crushes into dust. After releasing all the night creature, all the night creature get up and all of them makes a hostile sound. Their eyes shine and ready to fight. Federica and the other family members gather around Mikayla to protect him.
"What a strong spell. No wonder the vampire adopted you. You are fallen. Another despicable monster." said the leader.
It is the hunters turns to be screaming. Unable to moves and their leg is decaying. Their body is heavy like it has turn into stone. The three floating hunter is sweating resisting the spell. Their body feels numb and heavy but no decaying has taken effect on them.
Mikayla's eyes are blurry. His magic power is depleted. He is unable to hold longer until he sees all the ashes and headless body suddenly wake up and fly towards him. He is the only one that saw the bodies and ashes flying and enter his body. Mikayla feels his body is filled with magic power. A dark and strong magic power. Mikayla's amber eyes and wings turn darker.
The leader notices Mikayla changes and fly towards Mikayla. The night creature pounces on the other hunters and help to defend Mikayla.
Nirvana or Shangri-La or Valhalla
{A door materialize under the hunter's feet and the roots, trees, branches and leaves bind the one that still able to moves.}
