After confirming that he was clean, Alicia ordered the man to answer all of their questions truthfully and without withholding any information.
"First off, what is your full name and age? As well as your full address." asked Marcellus. If they need to find this guy for more information, this will be useful.
"Chuck Garret, 34 years old and I live in New spork at XxXXXxX" replied Chuck, inwardly feeling hatred towards them. As well as a little bit of fear, they know where he lives now after all.
"Why are you targeting me?" asked Alicia this time. She also paid more attention to Chuck now as this was important for her.
"He paid me with 500,000 in cash, new equipment and better connections" answered Chuck, inwardly resigning to his fate.
"Who is he? What were you supposed to do with her after you captured her?" asked Marcellus before Alicia could.
"I was sent to kidnap you and bring you to a drop off point by a man going by the alias, 'Mad Antidote'. Replied Chuck.
"What did he want with me?" asked Alicia as she started frowning even further, worry evident on her face.
"I don't know," replied Chuck, inwardly laughing as a form of revenge.
He really didn't know, so even if he was compelled to tell the truth he can only say what he knows, which is nothing!
"What information were you given about Alicia?" asked Marcellus in a low tone. At this point even he was frowning.
"Her name, her clan, her age, her rank, her current and previous whereabouts and any relationships that might need severing" replied Chuck.
Marcellus and Alicia both paused the interrogation to take in the information they have now at this point. The more they thought about it, the deeper there frowns grew. However, one thing stood out to Marcellus.
"What do you mean by ,"any relationships that might need severing" ?" questioned Marcellus in a cold tone.
"I received info, stating that the target was living with a human duo, a son named Marcellus and a mother named Amanda. If they were too close to the target, I was to eliminate the two of them, to avoid questions" finished Chuck after the explanation.
"YOU BASTA—-Marcellus was about to punch Chuck but Alicia stopped him. Although she didn't care about this human, he still had information they needed. Also, she felt Marcellus didn't realize that he would have killed the human with that punch just now.
"Not yet, he still has information" whispered Alicia as she held Marcellus from behind.
Marcellus calmed down and looked behind him at Alicia before heaving a deep sigh. He then nodded lightly and looked back at Chuck. Although, there was now hatred in his eyes.
"Are there more of you? More people coming after Alicia?" asked Marcellus.
"There are a lot more 'Slayers' but I am the only known person sent after the girl. However, knowing my employer, he will send more after he learns of my failure" answered Chuck, inwardly feeling scared of being killed.
"What are slayers?" asked Marcellus in confusion.
"A group of human beings who have learned about bloodsuckers and want to hunt them to extinction. We are called slayers" replied Chuck, inwardly feeling proud for being part of such a group.
"Why? Why would people do that?" asked Marcellus as his frown deepened even more.
"For all kinds of different reasons. For some it was just that they didn't want to let bloodsuckers rule humans and idiotic reasons. Others, there families were killed, drank from, enslaved, r*ped, extorted and other reasons. Many of us are just victims of other atrocities caused by bloodsuckers" replied Chuck.
At this point Marcellus was shocked. His race did these things? Why? Looking at Chuck's face as he said all of this without an expression caused inner turmoil in Marcellus.
So, he looked at Alicia, hoping she had the answers. Alicia, seeing Marcellus' expression, just sighed.
"Do you remember how I said you only become a monster if you want to be?" asked Alicia and seeing him nod, she continued, "Well, many vampires can't control themselves and many more who were previously human don't even try. Instead, they let themselves get drunk on power and play with humans until they get bored.
"Vampires are just like humans in this aspect, they still do bad things, we aren't perfect after all" Alicia sighed again as she finished her explanation. He had to learn sometime right?
"..." Marcellus was speechless, mainly because everything she said was right! He had been caught up in the fantasy of being an actual vampire that he neglected to realize something important. Just because they were a fantasy creature to humans, didn't mean they didn't have desires like them. Didn't mean that some were good, bad, nice, mean, lazy, angry, Ect.
And even then, what could humans do about these vampires who didn't follow human law? Marcellus thought that in the first place they shouldn't have to, but shouldn't there be a law for vampires.
"Alice, is there a law for vampires?" asked Marcellus with a little hope.
"Yes, however, just like how humans break the law, vampires do as well, there are something akin to police, but they can't get to everybody, everywhere at all times. Making people suffer like this on a daily basis" replied Alicia.
"..." Marcellus just nodded but he now had more questions. He was so deep in thoughts and internal conflict that he stopped talking at all.
Although Alicia wanted him to get more mature, she doesn't want to see him hurt. Who would want to see their friends in pain after all? However, she felt the need to be honest with him, for herself and for him.
Seeing him still staring into space she just sighed deeply and hoped that he could overcome this. As, she truly doesn't want to lose her first friend.
"..Now then, What do I do about you?" Alicia muttered under her breath as she went back to her indifferent expression.
