The King's Obsession

C446 - Blood on the floor- Part 1

Two new pairs of feet stepped into the castle grounds, making their way towards the castle where the fight had broken between the people of the castle and the demons and fallen angels. The intruders had come to retrieve the dark angel to offer Lisa as a sacrifice in the presence of the full moon so that it could unleash the angelic powers to be used by them.      

Vladimir sniffed the air and said, "What's this, Odin? It looks like there's a party going on in the castle."      

Odin followed his Master since they had left the caves, looking left and right, craning his neck and heard the screams and metals clash against each other. "It seems like there are fights going on, Master."      

"Do you know why there are people in here when we have already scheduled our day to kidnap the King's wife?" Vladimir didn't like the idea of someone coming to try and interrupt his already pre-scheduled plans. "Smells like the half baked demons and fallen angels in here. Did you go to Hell, Odin?"      

Odin cleared his throat, "Yes, Master. I have informed about you returning to Hell, but it seems like there have been slight changes. One of the demons named Greyson has been gathering an army and telling how you were not going to come back."     

"Filthy creatures never know when to draw the line, do they," Vladimir's words were more of a statement. They stepped into the inside parts of the castle and caught sight of dead bodies on the ground. He took a big sniff of the air, relishing the smell of death that was also laced with power-hungry, greed, cruelty and other emotions that he very well associated himself with. "I think we have come on time."     

Odin craned his head again, this time to look at the top to find two people fighting.     

"Leave them be," said Vladimir, "We aren't here to play with the minions. Now where is the girl, the human," said the older vampire, closing his eyes and trying to trace her scent, "Found her," said Vladimir, his eyes snapping open to show his red eyes.      

Away from the new duo who had entered the castle, Raphael snapped his head now and then, trying to find where Momo had gone. He had only stepped near the window to take a look outside where there was a fight going on, but in less than a minute when he had turned around, Momo was no more in the room. He didn't even know how she had freed her legs from the chains as the chains looked like they were broken.      

Running around the Northside of the castle, Raphael loudly called out, "Lady Momo? Shit this is not good," he said to himself.      

"Lady Momo, where are you?" he shouted again, his black eyes searching for the lady or a brown werewolf.      

"What are you looking for?" asked someone from behind him, and Raphael turned to find a woman standing not too far away from him. He hadn't seen this woman before, and he could only guess that this person was an intruder.      

"I don't think we have met before. Raphael Sparrow," he introduced himself, and the woman whose hair was tied in a high pony smiled at him.      

"Peyton Humphrey," she greeted back before saying, "You didn't tell me whom you were looking for. I can help you search."     

"What a kind lady you are," said Raphael. "I am looking for my future wife, but she's been too shy with me. It would be best if you went back to your...home. I will find her by myself." As if on cue, both of them heard a wolf's loud howl that echoed through the castle for not just them, but everyone to stop for a second and hear it.     

"It would be rude of me to let a charming man such as yourself go alone and not help," both the sides of the woman's lips pulled up into a broad smile, and Raphael smiled. Without uttering a word of response to her, he turned and started to walk away to head in the direction of the werewolf's howl. But he had barely taken a few steps when a sharp knife was thrown at him, and in time he caught it.
