She cleared her throat, closed her eyes and started talking in the foreign tongue again. The Alpha male's ears perked and he spoke with a growling voice.
"What are you doing here!" he roared.
"Lord, i have brought one of yours back to you, he was kept by my master for quite sometime, but i feel its right for him to be returned to his rightful place among your people."
Demetrius cowered and lowered himself to the ground, his tail between his legs.
"And why should we take him... what use is he to us."
"He is you're kin, your highness... I can't only beg with all humility that you accept him."
"Stand." he growled
Nikkita choked back a knot forming in her throat and stood, still looking at the floor. The wolf put a claw under her chin and lifted her head.
"Look at me." he growled at her.
She did as commanded. Her eyes shining a dull silver and a soft kindly look on her face.
"What are you?" he said apprehensively.
"Your highness, please..."
"What are you?" he roared
"A.... vampire... your highness."
"And you dare set foot down here, do you have a death wish!" he growled in her face
"I wish to return, my brother and your kin to a place where he can be accepted. Please m'lord."
He looked Demetrius over and snorted at him.
"And who is he!" he roared again pointing to Rex
"A friend of mine sir."
"What is his full name?!"
Nikkita looked at Rex. She didn't know what to say

Rex shook when he heard the request for his full name. Surely, the fact that his name meant "Moon King" would not go over well with his highness; but he decided it best not to lie. Keeping his head low and his gaze down, Rex shakily answered the Alpha male's question before Nikkita got a chance to speak.
"Rex....Luna Rex...."
He could hardly finnish his statement when the three smaller wolves lunged at him and held him straight up against the ceiling. He felt a paw pressing against his chest, one against his stomach, and each limb being held firmly and pulled as if they intended to rip them off. His scream echoed through the tunnel and Demetrius just started to shake from his spot on the ground.
The large beast released Nikkita and waled forward, anger clearly showing in his demeanure and on his face. A single large paw reached upwards and grabbed Rex by the cheeks and tilted his head, almost breaking his neck, until he could stare directly into the eyes of the true "Moon King."
"Is this a joke!?" He roared in anger as his pearl white teeth began to drip a thick clear liquid. "I should kill you right now!!"
"Please Lord," Rex managed to choke out. "Its only a nickname. I got it from a boy's shirt a long time ago."
His roar lowered to an angered growl and his hand on Rex's head released, allowing his head to hang like a limp rag-doll.
"So what is your name then Vampire!"
"I dont know it sir. Its been so long since anyone called my by that name that I have already forgotten it."
His eyes narowed at Rex then he turned and walked back to Nikkita, still furious at the outrage that she would bring someone with such a name to his kingdom; all the while, the three Lycans kept their hold on him and still pulled voilently on his limbs.

"please sir, we meant no ill will, simply to bring Demetrius back to you. I am sorry that we have angered you" her voice cooed gently
"please release my friend and we shall leave, never to returned to your domain."
The three lycans looked to their leader who stood menacingly over Nikkita. She bowed deeply her voice catching in the back of her throat. The lycan king looked from Nikkita to Rex.
"A vampire invades my domain, and brings someone who mocks the Moon King." He paced a few times the tunnel trembling slightly.
"...kill him..." he snarled " Demetirus... come with me."
"NO!" yelled Nikkita as the three dropped Rex and jumped on him.
She jumped into the pile and drew out her daggers stabbing one of them in the face. The beast drew back and roared violently. Demetrius, somewhere deep inside of himself had found bravery. He jumped in as well and torn into another lycans neck. Nikkita slashed at the last lycan and slit her throat. The wound was deep enough to be deadly, they all would survive. The lycan king turned back and faced them, Nikkita knelt on the ground tending to Rex. Demetrius sat at her side the hair on the back of his neck standing on end.
"Demetrius" the lycan boomed." You have proven you're loyalty and you're bravery. You are welcomed as one of us. And you two...."
He walked over and put his large paw over Rex and Nikkita.
"You too have shown great loyalty to each other as well. As a lycan we have but a few rules... loyalty being the highest priority. You both have proven yourselves to be your own pack."
He bowed to both of them, then turned and led Demetrius into his domain. Nikkita sat back against the wall and cried, not because she was sad, but because what the lycan had said, she hadn't really realized til now, but it was true.

Having felt his limbs being pulled and suddenly being dropped and pounced on, one would expect Rex to be in a much worse condition. A broken rib that already started to heal, as well as a dislocated right shoulder and left elbow and minor scratches on his face, he sustained very minimal damage from his first ordeal with Lycans.
His eyes rose to watch the retreating forms and watched as Demetrius stopped for a moment, looked back at the two, then continued his journey. It was almost sad to see the beast vanish down the tunnel, into the light with teh others but Rex knew it was much safer for him to be with his own kind.
"Do you think he'll be ok?" Rex asked, keeping his gaze ahead.

"He'll be fine.." she smiled and stood up. She extended her hand to help Rex to his feet.
"Now we have a bigger task."
She held her stomach again.
"And with the way i'm going i might not be able to help you if we don't find him soon."
She took his hand and walked back over to the ladder to get out.

Walking back to the ladder, his hand tightened around hers as the other held his aching rib. He wanted to have this end as soon as possible so he could start looking for a way to save this precious person.
"Nikkita, lets find him quickly..."
He took a hold of the ladder and placed a leg on it, taking one last look at the domain of the Lycans and his first experience with the Lycan leader. Though their first, and hopefully their last, meeting didnt go well, he had aquired a respect for these beastly creatures that could not be easily lost.
His head turned upwards and he began his ascent towards the road above. The sewers, though a nice hiding place, still wreaked and it would be good to get some fresh air.

She followed after him. Taking one look toward where demetrius had exited. She nodded to herself and climbed out. The fresh air hit her and blew her hair wildly. Its seemed another storm was moving in. She climbed out and waited for Rex.
"Where am i gonna find him?" she thought to herself.
"Better yet... can i stay on this earth after he's dead. If its kill the sire kill the vampire...?"
Her thoughts were interupted by other twinge of pain. She gritted her teeth and groaned slightly.

Rex leaned to her, holding his arms out in the off chance that he would need to catch her.
"Are you alright?" He asked quietly. "We should start our search right now. We can use the rest of your time after kiling him to find a way to remove my blood from your veins."

She stood slightly shaky and looked around. Her predatory side came out. She was hunting and nothing would distract her.
"I think i have an idea where he is... but it will take some time and a little bit of a fight to get to him."
She started into a brisk run and dashed down the street.

Rex barely even realised what had happened when he noticed her supposed 'hurting' body dissapear down the street. A smile formed on his face and a feeling of hope formed within him; if she had so much energy...then there was still time. Quickly, he turned to the side and started chasing her vanishing form, surprised at how quickly he was catching up to her.
His breathing got heavier and his eyes narrowed on the girl before him; he had never felt like this before. A tingle of excitement danced up and down his spine as he closed in and ran just a little to the side and behind her, keeping up quite easily. And with the speed the two were travelling, he expected that they'd be there very soon.

Her body screamed at her, but she wasn't going to stop, not until she reached her intened target. She was going to end this for Rex. Even if it meant her dying in the process. She ran faster. Leathery black wings slowly formed on her back, she jumped into the air and with a great burst of sound she unfurled them and flew on, even faster than she had been running. Her vampric blood was taking control of her body, even though it continued to scream at her. At this point she didn't care, she wanted to find him, to kill him... She wanted peace... for Rex...
"I hope i can last." she thought to herself.

His eyes widened as he watched his friend seemingly transform before his eyes and he slowed to a halt. Black wings...but nothing like the ones he carried...was she really a vampire? He shook his head to clear his mind then continued his chase, falling further and further behind as time passed.
"sh**!!" He screamed to himself. "At this rate, I'll lose her!"
He tried as best he could but his speed couldnt compare with hers while she remained airborne. His pace slowed significantly as he watched her vanish into the horizon and panted heavily. He had lost her.

She felt her soul screaming in her ear urging her on. At this point she knew he had fallen behind, and that was her plan. To keep him away from the fight for as long as possible, ensuring he would survive, even if she didn't. She flew on, past buildings, past her home, to the other side of the city. She landed on the top of one of the hotels and let her blood settle. Her wings easily disappearing. She broke open the roof door and ran down the many flights of stairs. Down into the basement, and lower still. It seemed as if she was heading into hell itself.
"You know he's here Nikkita, you just have to find him." she said to herself
She had by this time entered a tunnel that lead out under the city. When she came to the end it opened into a large carvern. A river ran below the cliff. It was a subterranian city. A vampire haven. She knew he was here. She let her wings re appear and drifted across the underground river.
"Its time to end this father.... No longer shall people suffer because of you" she said to herself

Falling behind was not what he wanted. Not what he wanted at all. He walked slowly for about a minute before some bright neon lights caught his eyes. How co-incidental that he should find a weapons store just as he was entering an expected large battle.
Not paying attention, he walked out ito the street and jumped upwards as a truck raced by where he had just been standing moments ago. He landed safely in a crouched state and smirked, remembering how he almost got killed just like this a while back. Rising to his feet, he dusted his pants and casually walked inside to look around at what he could take with him to war.
"May I help you?" A young lady asked as he walked inside and started to look around.
"Maybe," Rex replied coldly. "I'm in a hurry though. I'll just look around for a bit."
"If I may," she interrupted his thought and he turned to her with an annoyed expression. "We have ammo for those if thats what your looking for..."
Rex's eyes followed her pointing fingers to the two small hand guns he had all but forgotten about. Its had been such a long time since he was out of ammo that he had simply forgotten they were there.
"Good. I'll take six clips worth."
The young girl dissapeared behind a door and returned with a small box filled with the right ammo for his small weapons and placed it on the counter. Walking towards her, his wandering eyes fell on a long katana hung on the wall like a trophy and his silvery eyes sparkled. A wonderful piece of artwork indeed hung right before him but sadly, wasnt for sale it seemed.
"I'll take the ammo and go." Rex said monotonously as he reached into his pocket for the money he had aquired back at the mansion and looked down into the face of a frightened girl.
His head tilted to the right in confusion and he observed the girl jump slightly and moved to her right and away from his head.
"Y-..Your one of them..." Her shaky voice managed to squeeze out. "Please dont kill me. Take anything you want but leave me alone."
"What are you...?" He began before he saw the reflection of his silvery pupils in her eyes. The fear she displayed right there was just the same as what he had just before he was turned. Not wanting to be a bother, he grabbed the box of bullets and placed a little over the full price on the counter and walked slowly towards the door, stopping once to look back at the katana before making his exit.
Once outside, he started to cross the street when he heard a sudden clang and a slam. He urned aroudn quickly to see the weapon on the ground a few feet away from him and the terrified girl hiding behind the glass door of her store. The look of fear displayed on her face did little more than cause Rex to laugh as he walked back and retrieved the magnificent weapon the placed it against his lower back just as his previous weapon had been.
A smile formed on his face as he started to run once again in the direction he had seen Nikkita gone, trying to hone in on her consciousness as he was told that vampires could do.

She drifted through the streets of the underground city. Filled with vampires and other demons. She had only heard of this place before, but something told her it truly exsisted and that her sire would be hiding here. Her eyes caught every little movement making sure no one could jump her. She wasn't in the state for sneak attacks.
She walked on, then felt it. Coming from a building down a little ways on the street. His aura, pure evil, pulsed angerly across the street. He was not at all happy, and it felt to her he was in the mood to kill.
"Perfect..." she smirked.
She walked toward the building. No gaurds. She then proceeded in, a few people stood around but nothing of any serious threat. She walked toward the grand stair-case and started upward. She'd know when she reached his floor.
She felt his aura pulse again and it knocked her off balance for a second. He was looking for her. And her she was, taking him on, by herself, just to end a legacy of evil.
"Father... i'm home." she smirked
