Max couldn't believe his eyes as the person who removed the veil appeared to be Daryl. 'It was you in the woods that night', he asked still surprised.
'Yeah', Daryl smiled and wiped his hands
'Thank you. But why are you helping me?", Max couldn't help but ask
'Lets go, I will tell you everything. Because something bigger than your wolf hunters is coming',Daryl said as he turned to go
'What?", Max couldn't believe his ears

Grey was badly hurt while Thawn was covered in blood. Thawn carried Grey home. He dropped him on a bed and removed his shirt and began cleaning his wound. Suddenly, his hair stood up as if something was coming towards him. He acted on the impulse and held the knife was thrown at him and he looked back to see who threw the knife only to find a huffing Gina at the door.
'What did you do to him!?', Gina cried out
'It....', he wanted to reply but he was interrupted, he was grabbed from behind and smashed across the shelf and he landed groaning heavily.
'Fuck you! Luke screamed. And he took out his father's sword and swung it at Thawn who managed to dodge the attack.
'No', Grey managed to speak and coughed in pain.
"What do you mean no? He has done us terrible things dad!", Luke replied angrily still attacking Thawn who did his best to dodge it all despite the pains but he ended up sustaining an injury from his attacks.
'I can explain ,Luke", Thawn said groaning and holding the place where Luke's sword slashed him as it seeps blood.
'What happened to you two? We need to get you to hospital.' Gina said as she rushed over to Grey and began taking care of him.
'Did you do that to him?', Luke asked slightly confused.
'No ,I didn't. We were attacked', Thawn replied
'I need to know everything that happened and what brought you two together' Luke said sternly. "For now I need to tend you my father, you will heal anyways", he added stomping away to bring some ingredients to treat Grey

'I am the last of my clan,' said Daryl. 'And I was chased by something bigger than Savage Hunters. They are after the vampires since centuries.....at least that's what I believed.....' Daryl stopped as Sam entered.
'What is happening here!?, You with this guy huh!?", Sam said aloud giving Daryl a stare of daggers.
'Calm down Sam. He's a friend", Max tried to assure his friend but Sam has once again become a hot headed friend of his.
'Now what!?", Sam demanded an explanation for the reason both came together now.
'He's a vampire', Max smiled but Sam flared up throwing his hands in the air.
'Dont you get it!? A vampire, who sucks blood to live!, seriously!', Sam said not understanding why Max choosed a vampire as his friend.. 'Am I not enough?', he thought slightly.
'Not all suck blood', Daryl said calmly unfazed with the dramas Sam has been pulling since he entered.
'Dont you!? Sam asked looking intently at Daryl with his fist clenched.
'I do. And I have my ways. But not all vampires suck 'blood' to live, am even trying to wean myself off blood', Daryl said with a smirk
'Forget it. Werewolf and Vampires don't tend together', Sam said. 'And I don't care if you wean yourself or not. I can't let my friend become involved with you, blood sucker', He added.
'You seem to know alot about Supernaturals now, Sam', Daryl said smiling.
'Yeah. Since he got bitten I have been digging into the supernatural than I should and now seems my life is now cycling around the supernatural',Sam said looking at Max who had already surrendered to watching them play it out and Daryl just chuckled.
'I don't care about the superstition', Daryl said with a serious face contrary to the smile he's been keeping earlier.
'How can someone change his facial expressions so fast, does that comes with being a vampire too or something?', Sam thought.
'Superstition?, Some people don't believe a vampire exists or don't even know. We only hear them in folklore or tales. Now I have not only a vampire in front of me but a human turned into werewolf through a bite. So it's not a superstition', Sam stated
'I choose to be different', Daryl said knowing that indeed he has dug deeper into the supernatural truly.
'Are you sure you are getting enough sleep, Sam?', Max asked
'Yeah', Sam replied rather snappily. 'So much for trying to defend you,huh', he bellowed but Max just seem to ignore.
'You should.' Max replied
'Thanks', Sam said smiling. 'At least you still care for me huh?', he joked but Max didn't answer. 'Which makes you what age exactly, Daryl?', He added now looking at Daryl.
'Am the last of my clan. And the youngest. And I don't know my age precisely but am sure old enough to give birth to your parents,' Daryl said with a straight face. Both Max and Sam bursted into laughter but Daryl didn't flinch then they stared at each other.
'Fuck. He's damn serious about that', Max whispered
'They are not your real parents,are they? Sam asked knowing he must have had a parents or sort of in order to be a student in their school.
'I compelled them to my will. Then I created a memory of them having me as a Child', Daryl said with a hint of remorsefulness in his voice. 'When am gone, they will nearly go mad. I just have to do it, but it wasn't my intention if not for the school rule. And I needed help, I knew coming to this town wouldn't be just a coincidence', he explained
'You did it for a good reason. And I will help in any way I can to stop them with you' Max said and pats Daryl.
'Who are we talking about?', Sam asked still missing out from the tale Daryl had started before he joined them.
'The Camarillo's. They are chasing me, but for what I don't know. They are very powerful. And they consist of Witches and strong hunters' Daryl explained.
'Any contrast between them and the Savage Hunters? Max asked trying to differentiate them in his own idea.
'Savage hunters rely only on advanced weapons but Camarillo uses magic with advanced weapons to hunt ' Daryl simply stated.
'What made you came to Max for help? Sam asked still not trusting Daryl that much. And he didn't know why Max seem to trust him this much either. 'Did he compelled Max or something?', he thought.
'From the night I saved him.. I have been monitoring him, I came to this school because of him. He's a special Wolf. And I am sure he has high potentials, I have a feeling he has a role to play in the world of lycanthropes otherwise the bite wouldn't have worked. He's chosen for this', Daryl said and Sam smiled at why Max seem to trust him due to the fact he saved Max the other night. But still something was off about Daryl but he couldn't just point out what was.
'I believe you. But that doesn't mean I would ever give you my blood to suck. I can't be your blood bag, if you know that then welcome to the Cycle', Sam stated.
'Have been in the cycle before your dad was born', Daryl joked but neither Max or Sam enjoyed that joke much
'Does Gina knows she's dating her ancestor? Sam thought as he clenched his fist. 'I don't know why she wouldn't notice me', he couldn't understand why she'd go for this vampire instead.

Fauge was in rage. He went up and down. He checked the bodies again.
'Are you sure he's the one that killed them?,Fauge asked with his blood boiling the other man just nodded.
"I doubt it,it's not possible, we would see a claw mark at least', Fauge noted as he held one of the men.
'You maybe right but he was the target.' Savvy said.
'What if he was helped or they were attacked before getting to him? Fauge said. 'We are not the only creatures of the supernaturals remember?', he asked facing Savvy.
'What do you want me to do? Savvy asked .
'Find out whose helping him then we can decide a plan to capture them', Fauge said "This just keeps getting interesting', he thought.
'Aye sir',Savvy said and took off into the woods.
"Maybe the brothers aren't one we need to be worried about now. Am sure none of them are here I should have catch their scent', he mumbled.
*******
'Really?', The scarred man scoffed and took a puff from his Cigar.
'Hes now siding with them,no problem. We just have to deal with him and his family too,not that I care too much about them either. Capture them and let's see who will save them . Let's just do it subtly,we can't afford any mistake', he said again as he lits his Cigar and took another puff.
'People change, sometimes not for the better but for the worst. I can't imagine Grey doing all these for a werewolf, no wonder he took him as a son it has been his plot all these while. I will annihilate them all even with the humans who dare save them,dear sister, your brother is going to avenge you', he smirked creepily.

Hardy couldn't think straight. He saw the dead bodies in front of him.
'These are bite marks', he murmured. He couldn't understand why something or someone will go round the city just biting people. Was the thing or person testing out something? Or was he missing something?,he thought. His assistant came and sighed.
'We don't have any lead. It could be an animal or something', she said looking over the files.
'This animal sure has a strange pattern of biting', he pondered.
'Should we put out an APB on missing dog,or domestic fox or sheepwolf? Or any endangered species reared within', she inquired looking at her senior.
'Not that it won't do', Hardy said strangely looking at a mark on a body particularly, this looks like a claw or something',he whispered softly.
'The woods ain't safe now', she said taking a sigh.
'When was it safe?', Hardy replied looking at her then looking at the bodies in question.
