I was able to step back and stay between my humans and Saguine, but even stunned his mind was sharp as he had the ghouls surround us.

Nothing seemed to change in our dire situation even after our fight. Fucking hell.

We still had silver bullets, a wounded human who knew how to shoot, a not wounded human who did not know how to shoot, me with just one sword as the flamethrower was damage on the fall on the stairs.

Saguine was too quick for bullets; even for me, I would only be able to hurt his limbs, max. But the ghouls; they would get hit pretty good, but no point with Saguine there as, in the end, he was the real trouble.

I could stall him though?

Gosh, I always hated those character who sacrificed themselves for others in the movies, always found them to be stupid and dumb and... damn, what did those two humans did to me to even consider that? Made me more stupid for sure.

But of course Saguine wouldn't wait for us to decided what to do next.

One look at him and I knew he was furious as I have never seen him before; his lips up in an animalistic snarl, his eyes clouded with murderous intent. When he spoke, it was as if his words were embedded in poison:

"Sa-ma-el, you naughty, naughty boy, now you made me really, really angry. But I'm kind, and will give you another chance if you come with me now."

I hiss back at him. He sighs.

"So be it. Samael, hold the humans in place."

Before my eyes could even widen and my brain process what he had done, my hand dropped the sword down and grabbed Richard and Dylan by the back of the neck; and not very kindly, forcing them to stand straight, which was painful for Richard.

As I force their throats they were unable to speak, an each away of chocking with my grip. I fight back his control, so much that my hands start to shake and my muscles spasm, but I'm only able to lighten the grip just a little.

"Stop it, Saguine."

"No, Samael, is too late to beg now. You have done it yourself."

"So this is how low you have fallen now? This?! Breaking your own rules! What about all those speeches, all that; we are not slaves but sons, we were a family? It was all for naught?!"

"DO NOT DARE QUESTION MY MORALS!"

"Morals? MORALS?! LOOK AT ME SAGUINE! LOOK AT ME!" I try to calm down, trembling with anger and for fighting his control. "Look at me, Saguine, look at what you are doing... you are no different from any of the ancient ones..."

"Don't you dare compare me to them!"

"And why not?! Wasn't you who said that they were vile creatures who only used their children and enslave all? Who forced you to..." I swallow. "And yet... you do this to me? You are the kind to bend your morals as you deem fit?"

At that moment he looked really hurt, as if pained him to do this, but all pity vanish when I remembered what he already had done with me.

Guess time numbed his morals, could numb it even from the best of men; it was just a matter of time.

Would I become like that one day?

"Samael..." He said my name with so much passion and sadness... "I'm sorry, I'm really am, but you give me no choice."

"I-"

"Silence."

My mouth closes, making me clench my teeth in anger, feeling my tongue heavy.
