Mitsuba POV

The moment I saw Yu my whole body froze. And when he charged at us, aiming his sword and bringing it down, Waylon quickly pushed me away, making me hit the curb of the street.

Waylon quickly blocked the attack with his guns, but the force of the strike made him falter, almost losing his footing. He grit his teeth and stood his ground.

"S-Sinners... must die." Yu mumbled, and pressed harder down into his blade, making Waylon fall to one knee.

Just then the blond vampire, Mika as I heard him being called, came from behind Yu and grabbed onto him, pulling him away from Waylon.

"No Yu! Don't kill humans!" He yelled.

Yu didn't seem to hear him, because he quickly elbowed Mika in the nose and turned, slashing him across the chest. Mika flew back and hit the wall of an old building.

Waylon aimed at Yu, getting back on both feet. "Yu, it's me, Waylon! Calm down!" He yelled.

But his words had no effect, Yu turned back towards him and began to swing once again.

Waylon took a deep breath then jumped sideways, making the strike miss. While in the air, he shot Yu, straight through the hand.

Yu screamed in pain, writhing and clenching his hand. I slowly dragged myself away, the farther away from this battle the better.

Though my let thrashed with pain, I ignore it and get away enough to get behind a buildings corner, looking over at the battle.

Everyone seemed to stop drinking from the humans and stared at what was happening. The one that was drinking from Shinoa, the large one with purple hair, rubbed his chin with a grin.

"What's this?" He said to himself.

The vampire took one step closer, and Yu turned towards him, slashing and sending a large attack his way, blowing everything out of the way.

The vampire dodges, but behind him is demolished, leaving a rumbling building falling to the ground and sending dust everywhere into the old streets.

I cover my eyes, not being to see the battle.

Waylon POV

I stand back up and get the dirt out of my eyes, looking around. Mitsuba got away, thank god. But now Yu was fighting that noble, I don't know what's wrong with him, but I have to calm him down somehow.

I see Shinoa getting to her feet, slowly. I run over to her, skidding in front of her and helping her. She nearly tripped as I helped her.

"Need any help? A shoulder? Feeling dizzy at all?" I asked a barrage of questions.

Shinoa looked at me with surprise, and then she grinned. "What's with the worry?" She said.

I quickly let go of her and get back to my senses. "Seems your alright..."

I look over about a street more and see where Yu us fighting that noble. He sent him flying! What the hell is happening to him to make him that strong?

I'm about to go an get in the middle of the fight, just when I hear footsteps behind me. I quickly turn and block a sword, and make eye contact with someone that sent me into a frozen state.

Allan stood there, wielding two swords, pushing down on my bayonets. I stared up at him with a blank expression, then a small grin appeared on my face.

"You shouldn't have shown yourself, trash." I said, and quickly push his swords aside and kick him in the side. He slides a bit on the street, and as soon as he stops I open fire, firing two shots, one from each gun.

He dodged both, doing a spin to the side and running at me again. I dodge his first strike, and grab his wrist, stabbing my bayonet into it and firing.

He grit his teeth, but still having a large smirk on, he swung his other sword at me from above. It slashed me in the shoulder, sending blooming splurging out like someone had thrown a water balloon at me filled with red paint.

I jumped back, shooting another time, he deflected it with his sword though, and we both stood still. Fighting was erupting around us, a giant explosion every now and then from Yu and that noble.

"Who exactly are you? You can't be human." Allan said suddenly.

I frown. "Sorry to disappoint. I'm human." I said.

"Livestock can't beat vampires, yet you killed three nobles by yourself. Don't you see how hard it is even for that thing over there to hurt Crowley." He exclaimed.

"Say that again." I said slowly, clenching the handles of my guns.

"Hmm? Say what exactly? Livestock-?!" He started but I quickly grabbed a pill from my pocket and threw it down my mouth.

"Lilith, drink my blood." I said, feeling power suddenly flow through me. Lilith gave a small giggle as I showed greed, she was happy to see me like this.

I push forward and slash down at him with one bayonet and my other gun straight at his kneecap, shooting through it. He let out a short scream of pain, as my bayonet stabbed him in the shoulder.

"You little-!" He started to struggle, but I then aimed one of my guns at his forehead, the other was still stuck in his shoulder bone.

"Shut up... Livestock isn't supposed to talk." I said, my voice insanely dark.

Just as I was about to pull the trigger, I heard a scream of warning.

"Waylon! Behind you!" I flinch and turn quickly, seeing the same silver haired vampire I had wounded before, still having no arms. He kicked my in the gut, making me cough up blood, and his other leg slammed into my cheek, sending me flying and rolling across the street.

I cough as I get up. One foot in front of the other, I'm soon back on my feet, putting one of my guns into its holster and holding the other. Using my free hand to clench my gut, which no doubt had a couple of broken ribs.

I turn to see Yu swinging his sword at humans, saying sinner over and over again like it was a war cry. I grit my teeth and run at him, aiming my gun.

"Yu! Calm down!" I yelled.

Yu looked over at me with a blank expression, then walked towards me slowly. Then, surprisingly, he passed me silently, not swinging his sword at me.

"M-Must kill humans..." Yu mumbled.

What? If he's supposed to kill humans then why didn't he attack me? I freeze, in question at the moment, then I hear a scream. I turn back around to find that Mitsuba is still crawling from the fight, her leg getting more messed up by moving. Yu had spotted her and rushed towards her.

I push off, the demon curse still active, making me dash in front of her. I block the blow, but the sheer force breaks my posture, and it pushes past my bayonet.

Huh?

I feel my chest become wet, for a moment I feel blistering heat, but the next I feel cold. So cold. I look down at my chest to find that Yu' sword had slashed me deep, across it. Blood pooled off of it, and I slowly looked at my hand, covered in my own blood.

What?

I slowly fell to one knee, I couldn't breath. The air had been squeezed out of me, and I stared into the distance. What is this? I can't feel my body, I feel numb everywhere.

"Waylon! Speak to me!" Lilith said in the back of my head. Funny, why did a demon feel worried about me, a human? Or was I human? Everyone thinks I'm not, and even Yu like this doesn't acknowledge me as one...

The real world blacked out, and I was forced into some deep unknown pit of darkness.

(Yup, Waylon fucked up. It took me awhile for this part because I was in a block... again. Nonetheless I hope you enjoyed and have a wonderful day!) - MnMs171
