Rex smirked after hearing Nikkita's voice. Her words alone was enough to renew his spent strength, though she was simply warning him about the two that awaited him so patiently.
"Demetrius will be fine." He assured her. "I wont allow any harm to come to him."
Rex dashed off suddenly at the door and almost floated over the descending steps in the narrow corridor. He kept his arms behind him, each grasping a pinwheel tightly in anticipation of the final battle for the city.

"stupid dog!" one of the vampires snapped smacking Demetrius across the face.
Demetrius rolled to the other side of the room and laid there with his paw over his snout. The contacted was so vicious Demetrius now has a cut clear across his face from the vampire's ring. He growled lowly but didn't dare move.
"So we have visitors do we.." the other laughed.
"well lets give him a warm welcome shall we?"
The both approached the stairs and stood waiting for Rex to come to then.

The dark and narrow passage went silent suddenly as Rex approached. His footsteps vanished completely, replaced by a faint whirring sound. From the darkness, the two pinwheels erupted and flew at the pair below, while the sounds of heavy feet returned in quick succession.
The half-demon burst from the darkness as if previously held back by some unknown force and leapt over the two easily, grabbing his pinwheels from the air before landing on the other side of the room with his back to them.
Rising from a crouch, his hands remained at his side while his bent left leg pushed him upwards, his odd wings seemingly gone from existence. He looked over at Demetrius then looked over his right shoulder at the pair and sighed in dissapointment.
"Demetrius. I'll take care of these two. Please locate the elder...your the only one who can."

Demetrius's ears perked up and he removed his paw from hid face revealing his wound. Blood dripped from his snout and he whimpered slightly, but did as he was told. He sniffed around a bit and disappeared into the darkness.
"Rex, behind you!" Nikkita's voice called into his head
The vampires advanced on him quickly. But his pinwheel ame out of his hand and spun through one vampire's neck and returned to Rex's hand.

"Thanks Nikkita." Rex whispered and spun around to face the last adversary.
The creature hissed violently at Rex's advance then jumped to the right and stood atop a wooden chair.
"You'll come no further mortal. I'll send you to the underworld!"
Rex walked slowly forward with a smirk on his face.
"Wrong on both counts."
The creature reached behind and took out a sword then lunged at Rex with a thrust. Rex easily turned to the side, allowing the blade to pass his chest easily, then swung his pinwheel at the vampire's stomach but the creature ducked and spun the blade around at Rex's leg. Reacting quickly, Rex hopped over the blade then swung the razor weapon down at the head of the creature but the vampire quickly jumped back and evaded the attack completely.
"Not bad." Rex said plainly.
"Your not too bad either." The vampire replied with a smirk.
The two opponents stood face to face within the small room, silent and still then suddenly charged at each otehr. The vampire slashed horizontally at Rex's neck but rex jumped over the blade into a tucking flip and swung both pinwheels at the back of the vampire's head and landed then spun around to see the creature a few feet away and still unharmed.
"This is just dragging on..." Rex said and turned towards the direction Demetrius had gone and started to walk.
"Hey! We're not done here!!" The vampire called and charged once again, leaping into teh air and descending with the weapon aimed at the middle of Rex's skull.
"Yes we are." Rex said with a smile and turned around with his pistol in his left hand, firing four bullets into the approaching menace then decapitating him once he hit the floor.He looked the room over one last time then followed Demetrius into the darkness, hoping to end this quickly so he could be reunited with his friend.

"Dog! I'll kill you!" came a voice from the darkness along with a howl and a few barks.
"gah!"
The darkness opened into a candle lit room, dingy and cold. The room was a decent size and mainly empty with the excpetion of the sconces on the wall holding the candles. Standing in the middle of the room was the last vampire and Demetrius biting at his ankles.
"d**n you."
He chased the lycan around with his sword, but Demetrius proved to be faster. His agility was unmatched, showing his true lycan side. Demetrius jumped at him stealing his sword and holding it in his mouth growling.
"Now Rex!" Nikkita spoke again.

The lone vampire spun around to see Rex lunging at him with both pinwheels in hand and simply leaned backwards, placing both palms on the ground for support and kicking the half-demon into the air.
"I wont fall so easily fool!" He screamed as his feet descended to the ground then flipped him over backwards.
Rex fell to the ground in a heap then struggled to his knees and glared at the one before him.
"Your clan is being wiped out." Rex said while holding his aching ribcage. "Give youself to me. I offer you a dignified death."
"Give up?" He vampire laughed. "You have got to be joking!"
Rex growled and jumped to his feet suddenly then dashed at the man who anchored himself in preparation for Rex's attack. Rex's right hand descended at the man's head but was caught by the wrist as was his left hand which swung at the man's neck. The two struggled for a moment then the man suddenly pulled back and extended his left leg outwards, tripping Rex and sending him unto his stomach then jumped back to give himself some distance from his opponent.
"Like I said, this fight wont end as you want it to."
Rex quickly rolled away from the man and spun around on teh ground, using the momentum generated by his movements to propel his body up into a standing state.
"And what makes you so sure you'll win?" Rex asked with an annoyed tone. "Its two on one."
"My name is Vincent." The creature stated cockily. "It means 'conquering'. That alone is proof of my victory."
At the end of his rant Rex started laughing while the annoyed creature stood in frustration watching his opponent underestimate him.
"Thats the stupidest logic I've ever heard. A name doesn't mean a thing! If I was like you, I'd be a king since thats what my name means."
"You?" He asked with a chuckle. "A king!?"
"My point exactly." Rex replied plainly. "I'll prove to you how meaningless a name is."
He dusted himself off and put the pinwheels away then looked at the man intently. From the way he had reacted to the earlier attacks it was clear that he was a high level fighter unlike the rest of the brainless beasts they had encountered so far. This one might prove to be a bit more trouble than normal.
"Demetrius. Lets take him together."

Demetrius dropped the sword from his mouth, and it clanked loudly of the concrete floor. He growled lowly and crouched as his eyes started to glow red. He folded his ear back and lunched at the vampire. The vampire turned but Demetrius still caught and and knocked him to the floor. Demetrius bit at his neck but the creature threw him off and Demetrius hit the wall, hard.
"Rex, be careful, he's strong. But you can defeat him..... you have to."
Rex's pinwheels started to glow and vibrate as Nikkita's voice resonated from them. She spoke in a foreign tongue, and it seemed to catch the vampires attention.
"Rex, trust yourself and your heart..." she whisper before her voice disappeared again.
Demetrius stood, with a new found strength and roared at the vampire. He looked over at Rex and bowed his head. The fur on the back of his neck standing on end. He jumped up over the vampire in one long stride and caught the vampire in the back of the head with his claws, sending him stumbling forward.

Seizing the opportunity, Rex lunged forward; both pinwheels at the ready for a quick and sudden decapitation. The creature spun to the side and sent a kick towards Rex's midsection but he leapt over the leg and rolled on the ground then quickly turned around and swung the circular weapon at his stomach, slicing him deeply and sending him stumbling backwards.
"You..You..." He coughed while staring at Rex's devilish smile, blood running from his mouth.
"This is where it ends." Rex stated decisively.
His left hand reached down and grabbed the carpet Vincent was standing on and pulled suddenly, causing the vampire to fall over backwards. Leaning forward, Rex launched himself towards the fallen foe and reached back with his right hand then thrusted his pinwheel at the neck of the hissing beast then flipped over and landed in a crouch.
His hand lifted slowly and he looked over the bloodied blade of his signature weapon then turned to see the headless body go limp. A sigh of relief escaped his lips and he closed his eyes for a moment then opened them and looked around.
"I guess thats it." Rex said plainly. "Yet something still bothers me..."
His eyes shifted to Demetrius with a quizzical look.
"Nikkita's sister. We never found her. Is she still here?"

Demetrius put his nose in the air again. Then wimpered slightly, moving toward the stairs then bounding up them. He didn't stop at the main floor but continued upward to the upstairs hall. He howled lowly and scratched at one of the doors. A small cry was heard behind the door then everything went silent again.
Demetrius sat down outside the door and let out a small howl.
"Rex..." Nikkita voice said faintly. "Upstairs..." she managed to say before disappearing again.
"Her soul is pulling to the other side." his mothers voice came next. "She trying to stay, but time is running out..." then her voice disappeared as well.

"AHHH dammit!!!"
His eyes flashed a silvery glow and he charged up the stairs then tackled the door off its hinges and rolled inside. He jumped to his feet and looked around, his fangs bared and a vague outline of his wings slowly became visible as his anger and impatience ran high.
"Get out here!!" Rex screamed. "I'll tear this whole room apart if I have to!"

The small girl slowly crept out from behind a large chair. Her hair was disevled and blood stained her neck and wirsts. Most of her bones showed through her skin and she was pale, more pale than most vampires.
"wha... what are you going to do to me..." she stammered, her eyes filled with terror
She wimpered and sniffled her small fangs showing in her attempts to stop her tears.
Nikkita tried to speak but she couldn't reach Rex's mind anymore.
"please don't hurt me." the girl wimpered.

His eyes glistened as he saw the small girl step out. Her pitiful appearance and soft voice on any other occasion might have touched a sensitive spot, but knowing that one he cares so deeply for is slipping away killed his sense of compassion entirely.
"The last one..." He said coldly as he reached for his left pinwheel and held it before him. "Join your sire in hell!"
He pulled both arms backwards and crossed them before his chest before swigning them outwards, releasing both weapons at once and watching the pair glide towards the head and torso of the frail looking child. Time was almost up and he wasnt about to let Nikkita vanish because he was slacking off.

The weapons spun and zig zagged back and forth across each other. Demetrius saw his half sister's fate and bolted in front of her, he growled furiously. The vampire blood bond still inside him. But just before they reached the lycan and small girl the weapons clanged together and fell to the ground, stopping harmlessly.

Rex growled lowly and unholstered his twin pistols, lifting them slowly and aiming both at the small girl behind Demetrius.
"Get out of the way Demetrius." Rex said coldly. "I dont want to hurt you, but I will if you stop me from gettign Nikkita back."
The shadowy outline of his wings vanished and all four limbs folded gently but loosely around his body. His hands stood out from between the twin pairs and his fingers tapped the triggers impatiently as he awaited a response from this one Nikkita told him to protect.
