The creatures lay fallen all around the Vampires. Their black blood soaked into the sandy ground, turning it into a dark, gritty mess. Anubis stood tall, his head held high, and his black cloak billowing in the wind. He surveyed the scene before him, a proud smile on his face. His companions, Nightshade, Rafe, and the others stood around him, their hands bloodied and their faces covered in grime. The victory was theirs. But the cost had been great.
"We have won," Anubis said, his voice booming across the battlefield.
From this fight, Two Banshee had died leaving only Two left alive.
"They.. Were.. trough..." Callilas said trying to retain his sanity.
They sometimes forgot that a Wendigo was here with them. They didn't like the idea of a Wendigo with them. But Anubis insisted that his sanity was coming back and he wouldn't pounce on them.
"Everyone pick those crystals from the beasts chest. They are going to have much power." Anubis commanded.
The Vampires obeyed and began gathering the crystals from the creatures' chests. The crystals glowed with a strange light, their surfaces smooth and glass-like. The Vampires had never seen anything like them before. They seemed to pulsate with energy, emitting a low hum that made the air around them vibrate. They felt a strange sensation as they touched one of the crystals, a tingling in her fingertips that spread up her arm. they quickly withdrew her hand, unsure of what the crystal was doing to them.
They gathered courage and brought it to Anubis.
Anubis examined the crystals, his eyes glowing with a faint blue light. He seemed to be deep in thought, his brow furrowed as he studied the crystals. After a few moments, he looked up at the Vampires, his eyes burning with a fierce intensity.
"These crystals are more powerful than we could have ever imagined," he said, his voice low and gravelly. "They contain a vast amount of energy that can be harnessed and used for our own purposes. But we must be careful, for if we misuse this power, it could have dire consequences."
"That's good." Nightshade said. "Are there more of those beasts here?"
"Yes. Probably why ask." Anubis replied confused.
"We can use them to train our bodies to become stronger just like i did. I know we all have a strong grudge for what the Werewolves did to us and we would want to give them a payback." Nightshade said clenching his fists hard and squeezing his face.
"That's an interesting idea," Anubis said, stroking his chin thoughtfully. "But it would be a dangerous undertaking. We could risk injuring ourselves or, worse, we could release the creatures and cause more havoc than we can handle. We must weigh the risks carefully before we make any decisions."
Nightshade seemed to consider this, his eyes flickering as he contemplated the possibilities. "What if we contain them within a special enclosure? Something that will allow us to train with them while keeping them contained?"
"That is a possibility," Anubis said, seeming to like the idea. "As for this teleporting device. I Would try to see if i can use these crystals to work on them."
"Right now we are stuck on this planet and we most try our best to survive." Anubis concluded.

They all spent about almost Eleven Months on this unknown planet. This was the planet the technique 'THE CALM' was also discovered. These Vampires found out that they didn't necessarily need Human blood to survive. Whenever they had the desire for human blood they would perform the calm technique by sitting down in a monk style and breathing in and out until the desire for human blood would disappear. This technique was founded by Jules as a way for them to survive. The Vampires also noticed that if they didn't get injured they wouldn't need human blood.
Within those Eleven Months, they killed several beasts on this planet and created equipments with the beasts crystals. The forger was Anubis himself. The crystals were used to make weapons that helped them. Some increased a Vampire's strength, speed and so many other things. Some even gave Elemental stuffs like lightning and so. But the problem is the more you use the Crystals the more the get weaker and eventually would no longer have any effect.
The Vampires began using the crystals to create a variety of powerful weapons and tools. They were able to enhance their speed, strength, and other physical abilities. They were even able to harness elemental powers, such as lightning and fire. However, they quickly discovered that using the crystals had a downside - the more they used the crystals, the weaker they became, until eventually the crystals lost their power altogether. It was a frustrating cycle, but the Vampires were determined to find a way to overcome this limitation.
They discovered different beasts on this planet. They started to rank the beasts based on how effect the beast's crystal was and how long the Power would last:
- Tier One: Minor Beasts.
- Tier Two: Intermediate Beasts.
- Tier Three: Advanced Beasts.
- Tier Four: Elite Beasts.
- Tier Five: Master Beasts.
- Tier Six: Extreme Beasts.
- Tier Seven: Impossible Beasts.
- Tier Eight: Legendary Beasts.
"Legendary Beasts". These are beasts that, for one reason or another, are no longer in existence, but whose crystals are still sought after for their immense power. They are the rarest and most powerful beasts, and their crystals can grant a Vampire nearly god-like abilities.
"Legendary Beasts" were the apex predators of their time, and their crystals were incredibly difficult to obtain. They had abilities that were far beyond the abilities of any living creature, and they often had mysterious and powerful elemental abilities. For example, there was the "Behemoth of the Black Sands", a legendary beast that could manipulate the sands around it to create vast deserts and engulf entire cities. Or the "Eye of the Tempest", a legendary beast that could control the weather and summon hurricanes with a single thought. There were many more of these legendary beasts, and their crystals were the holy grail of a Vampire's power.
