Chapter 36 - Family Reunion

Part 1: Hunters and The Hunted

Arc 5: Monster Hunting.

(Sam is sitting on his bed in his room. The floor is tiled, his bed stands in the middle of the room. There are windows on the left side of the room, there are two cupboards next to the bed, one locked tightly shut. Across from his bed stands another cupboard, with several monster skulls on it. Opposite the window are two glass cabinets, one with several trophies earned from monster hunts and another with weapons, inside is a Sawed-Off Winchester Model 1887 Lever-action shotgun, it is Stainless Steel with black engravings and a Cherry Wood grip with a Rhino carving on it; it is called "Cherry Steel". At the end of his bed is a wooden chest. He has a poster of a Tornado above the bed. And lastly a bookcase on the left-hand side of his bed)

(Sam is listening to music on his Sony Walkman NW-A105. He is listening to "Ain't No Rest For The Wicked" - Cage The Elephant while he is reading a book)

(Someone knocks on his door)

Sam: (Takes out his Earphones) Come in!

Able: (Walks into the room, still looking pale and underweight) Yeah... uh... Sam, can I please borrow your... black suit?

Sam: Do you honestly, seriously think a suit belonging to a 5'2ft would fit a 6ft!? Besides; it's just a date! I highly doubt you'll need to dress like someone in The Men in Black!

Able: Fair point... say, why don't you just use Magica and you know, make yourself taller?

Sam: You can do that?

Able: Yea-...

(Someone knocks on the door and walks inside)

Michael: (Walks through the door) Oh hey Sa- (He sees Able) AAAHHHH!!!! Holy Me!!! You look like a Spirit!!!

Able: Everyone's telling me that today!

Sam: What's the reason Michael? Trespassing is a crime.

Michael: Joke's on you, I half own this place! Besides... (He takes out a file out of his Jacket) You might enjoy this one.

Sam: (Michael throws the file at him, he catches it and opens it) What is it?

Michael: Everything points towards Werewolves...

Sam: (Shaking his head) Oh. You gotta be kidding me...

Michael: So she'll probably be on the case too.

Sam: (He stands up and walks over to Cherry Steel) Able, I'll be back in a few hours. I'm gonna prevent the entire City from burning down.

(Michael pats Sam on the shoulder as he walks out his room)

Michael: (Looking at the confused Able, he raises his finger, but puts it down) I'll- just get going...

(Michael walks out the room and leaves Able behind)

Sam: (Walking through the living room past Kane) Kane, I'm borrowing your car.

Kane: (Quickly Stands up from his seat) Like Hell your Short Ass is!!!

Sam: (He takes the keys out from his pocket and spins them around) Too late! Already got your keys!!

Kane: Oh you son of a...!

(Sam whistles a song, as he walks out the door)

Kane: I'm gonna go prepare a Requiem for my car...

(Sam gets in Kane's car, A Black 1969 Ford Mustang Boss 429. It has an Orange flame livery and the license plate reads "US 'TIL THE END")

Sam: (With his hands on the steering wheel) Alright, St- Stella. I know I once crashed you, but it won't happen again. We good?

(Sam turns the keys and the car doesn't turn on)

Sam: Oh come on you Big Bucket of Possessed Bolts! Do you want me to sing "I Love You Baby" by Gloria Gaynor! Well sorry that song's Copyrighted!

(The Headlights Flash YES in Morse code)

Sam: (Takes A Deep Breath) Y-...!

(Narrator: Sam then proceeded to sing his heart out to the entire song to a Possessed Car... When's my paycheck coming in?)

(5:36 Minutes Later)

Sam: (Out of breath) What's next!? I Will Survive? Its Raining Men? Because, the joke's on you... I grew up with Mrs Pendragon!

(Note: Oh I'm definitely getting sued someday...)

Sam: (Turns the keys again and the car turns on) Thank you!

(Sam drives off)

(Inside Reaper Hunting Co.)

Able: (Knocking on Annah's door) Hey! Uh... Annah I need some advice!

Annah: (Walking up to Able from the stairs, she is holding a packet of chips) I'm right here you idiot!

Able: Oh... listen I, uh... need-...

Annah: (Interrupts him) If it's a physical item, I probably don't have it. And if its wisdom you're looking for, then you are surely in the WRONG place!

Able: No I need... advice. Particularly the Dating Kind...

Annah: Listen, Sam's never taken me on a date. Hell, I'm even sure by the time the world ends! He still wouldn't have taken me on one! He's not the dating type after all.

Able: Yeah... but still, you got something?

Annah: Well if I had to say, just be kind and treat her as she wants to be treated. If she's kind, treat her kindly. If she's a masochist, then hell treat her as dirt! That's all that matters, the first impression! (She walks into her room) Now if you don't mind. I've got 5 Episodes of my series to catch up on!

(She closes the door on Able)

Able: Alright... treat her with respect then.

(Ren walks up the stairs, but when he sees Able he immediately turns around)

Able: Hey! Hey! Hey! Renny boy!

Ren: Yes Able?

Able: What do you do with a woman, while on a date? Assuming you don't just... push them off a cliff.

Ren: Oh would you stop with that! Please!!! I'm clean, right!?

Able: You know.... haha fun fact. Sam never told you his name! Yet the second you stepped through that door, you knew EVERYTHING! You knew Elizabeth was Sam's adopted daughter. You knew Kane was my brother! And you never mentioned, why your house arrest was lifted! (Able pins Ren against the wall) So how about you explain a few things!?

Ren: I-...

(Able's arms give in and he lets go of Ren)

Ren: You're sick my friend... you fool yourself often. You better hope it doesn't effect your mind a lot. Because you might still need it... MIGHT. See you when the sun rises again, pal.

(Ren continues walking away and Able holds onto his head, feeling nauseous)

Able: Just a cold... Just a cold... Just a cold. You're not coughing up blood, so you'll be fine tonight! You'll see the sun rise all the same!

(7 Hours later)

(The Sun is starting to set)

(An abandoned milling silo, with the roof exposed and the metal outside starting to fade)

(13 people stand around inside it, all of which look malnourished and rugged. 3 men are standing around a table with a map of the nearby town)

(For the sake of not wasting my brain, I'm just calling them #1, #2 and #3)

#1: We haven't had a feast in 3 weeks! Everyone's dying!

#2: (He is clearly the leader of the group) Relax alright. If this plan works, we won't need another feast for at least a month!

#3: IF it works that is!

#2: It will alrigh-...

(Someone knocks on the entrance to the silo)

The Person Knocking: (Speaking in a soft Spanish accent) Room service! I clean, know!?

#2: Who the hell is that!?

The Person: Ah you don't want clean room!!! Okie-dokie! I make room filthy now!!!

(The door gets kicked down and Sam walks inside)

Sam: (He throws a werewolf head across the floor) NOW!!! Which one of you here is called Jacob!!! So I may murder him and THEN The Alpha!!! (He walks into the center of the silo) You don't look like any Teen Wolves, so can we ALL be gentlemen about this!!! Because honestly it's quicker than if SHE gets to you all first!!! Shall we commence!!!?

(A Werewolf jumps down at Sam from behind, but he is quick to react and slices the Werewolf straight in half)

A Woman: THAT WAS JACOB!!! You Bastard!!!

(Everyone in the silo start turning into their werewolf forms)

Sam: Huh, guess I was right...

(Sam dashes forwards, he leaps over the planning table and drives the Rogue Scythe straight into the 2nd man's neck. He jumps onto the table and pulls out the Rogue Scythe)

(He shoots the other two men around the table in the head using Reap and Sow)

(Sam looks up and sees 7 Werewolves all descending from above)

(A smirk grows on Sam's face. With the Scythe in his left hand and his shotgun in his right hand, he jumps up towards the Werewolves)

(Sam immediately starts spinning like a Buzzsaw diagonally. Cutting straight through the first three Werewolves, like a hot knife through butter)

(He plunges the Scythe into the 4th Werewolf's chest and uses it as a falling platform)

Sam: (Thinking to himself) Five left, Two on the ground, Three leaping right towards me. Oh this is fun!

(Sam pulls out the Scythe and throws it at the furthest Werewolf in the air)

(He uses Cherry Steel to shoot the other two in the chest. He kicks the Werewolf he's standing on to get him to fall faster)

Sam: (Thinking to himself) HOLY SHIT!!! Ben 10 came out 15 Years ago!!! Shit I'm old!!!

(Sam hits the ground. One of the Werewolves punches through the Gas Container and sends fire flying straight towards Sam)

Sam: (Summons the Rogue Scythe) Sorry!!! (He catches the fire at the end of the Scythe) But I'm not a College Kid after Finals!!! FIRE COUNTER!!!! (He throws the fire towards the Werewolf, it deals twice as much damage as before, burning the Werewolf alive)

(The final Werewolf sneaks behind Sam and grabs the Scythe while Sam holds onto it)

(Sam just smirks and lets go off the Scythe)

(The Werewolf begins Screaming in pain as a sharp light emits from its mouth and eyes. It falls lifeless to the floor)

Sam: That takes care of tha-...

(A Black Steel Kukri, with Purple edges and a Pearl grip flies towards Sam's head, but he is quick to catch it)

Sam: NORMAL PEOPLE SAY HELLO!!!

(He throws the Kukri back to where it came from and a Woman shrouded in shadow catches it)

The Woman: (She is wearing a black leather cowl, with a hood over her head) Now... we aren't "Normal People" are we... Samuel?

Sam: (He sheaths the Scythe) *Sigh* Hello there... sister.

(The woman jumps down. She is wearing a tight-fitting black leather shirt, tight purple jeans and black heels. She stands at 5'9ft (175cm) tall and has a slim athletic build. She takes off her hood revealing her Navy Blue eyes and her Long Loose Fitting Black hair, she is wearing purple lipstick. She looks around the age of 21. She has two identical Kukris and she sheaths them both on her belt. Elementa: Kage Mikkusu, A stealth Elementa that allows the user to "Fuse" with shadows allowing for faster and quieter movement)

Amelia Tomagiri: And what are you doing here?

Sam: I've been assigned to this contract... you?

Amelia: (She raises her hand and opens her hands) You know me, don't you?

Sam: (Starts circling around her) I didn't even know you existed until 9 months ago...

Amelia: You have a fair point. There is a massive prize for your head though... and I'm a natural born Assassin.

(She dashes towards Sam at an incredible speed, creating a burst of wind)

(Sam catches her wrist and holds onto it tightly)

Sam: You're a Van Helsing alright and a stubborn one at that.

Amelia: I'm gonna kill you! You Son of a Bitch!!!

Sam: (Leaps away from her) Jokes on you, that's your mom too!

(Amelia leaps backwards into the shadows and uses Kage Mikkusu)

Sam: (Thinking to himself) She really thinks she can outsmart me? I've already outsmarted her outsmarting...

(Sam summons Grimm Fire and blasts the center of the silo, creating light everywhere exposing Amelia while she is running in the shadows)

Sam: (Reaper Gates behind her) Found you... (Sam knife hand strikes her in the neck, knocking Amelia out) You may be taller, but I'm still the older one. (He picks Amelia up and starts walking out the silo) Jeez this place is starting to stink...
