Okay, so what I seemed to be missing was a vampire fanfic... THE most basic kind of fanfiction there is. So please, enjoy! Classical vampirexvampire hunter story! Or is it classical...?
His gorilla-like subordinate frowned but didn't question anything. Afterall, the only concern of that statement would be if the Chief of SID didn't get bewitched which was impossible, since he was a full-fledged high-ranking vampire hunter, their genetic mutations granting them resistence to most of vampiric psychic manipulation. Another possibility would be Zhao Yunlan turning crazy but everybody already knew this guy wasn't right in the head so nothing new on that front.
Instead, Chu Shuzhi turned his crossbow to the other side of the room, headshotting a vampire crawling towards the newest SID addition that was just screaming his lungs out.
The Chief of SID reloaded his gun watching it. "You seriously brought that idiot here?"
"He brought himself," Chu Shuzhi smirked, having fun watching Guo Changcheng struggle with the remains of the vampire's brain that splattered all over him.
"Well, you know he's the higher-up's nephew... I'm making him your responsibility..." Zhao Yunlan patted his subordinate's shoulder in grievance and looked downstairs while Chu Shuzhi cursed and started heading to Guo's position.
Looking over the battlefield, the Chief of SID quickly assessed the situation. 8 hunters down in the ballroom, 5 with him above the stairs, Chu Shuzhi and Guo on the right staircase, Shen Wei guarding the left one. Ye Zun under the staircase with three... no, now only two women - probably as his bodyguards.
Yeah, Ye Zun, the card he definitely wouldn't trust. On the other hand, if he turned his hunters against him, Shen Wei's terrifying powers changing sides would most likely mean a complete annihilation of half of his vampire hunter army. Right this moment he was just witnessing the raw power burst from Shen Wei's arms, sending enraged vampires flying in all directions where his hunters quickly seized their oppurtunity, granting the finishing blows. There was no sense or style to his use of power but with some training and strategy, this could be useful. So far, this vampire greenhorn definitely wasn't sure what he was doing at all. Just like in bed... so much enthusiasm and no experience whatsoever. All the more fun for the SID's Chief pervert, though...
Zhao Yunlan smirked to himself and evaded a dangerous piece of red ice that just barely missed his head. Well, that was the end of fun. All vampire hunters knew whose power was the manipulation of freezing point. Tonight's host. The Vampite Lord of Dragon City and of this house stood in the middle of the chaos downstairs, amidst the corpses of his guests and the ruins of the magnificent chandelier, pouring out the bottled blood and turning it into long and sharp spikes. The whole place suddenly felt a lot colder, the surface of the black and white marble on the floor and walls blooming with ice flowers. Around him, there were 4 other vampires shielding him. One of them just snapped the neck of one of Ye Zun's familiars that charged him head on. Well, here comes the elite... This is asking for an upgrade.
He turned to the marksmen at his right side. "You guys have your injections?"
"Yes, sir!"
"Use it if anyone gets up here. That guy over there..." he pointed at Shen Wei, "...won't let it happen though. And our big gorilla is on the other side. I'm going down, it's getting pretty serious there. Cover me." Then he took out an injection pen from his pants' pocket, took down the safety cover and hit his right thigh with it. In a second, he immediately felt his heart-rate and breath speed up, all the dull pain left over from the previous vigorous exercise gone. Ok, with the adrenaline rush his vampire hunter mutations will be many times enhanced for the next 2 minutes. He got to make them count.
"Shen Wei! Duck down!" He yelled and started running.
Pulled forcefully by the undeniable force of their still-in-effect bond, Shen Wei almost lost balance as his body involuntarily bend over so the Chief of SID could jump over him right into the mayhem bellow. "Zhao Yunlan!" He called, deeming this action foolish and self-destructive.
"Guard the stairs!" was another order the vampire hunter screamed while shooting his way through the crowded stairs. His eyes with dilated pupils had a strange maniacal glow to them, similar to another two or three vampire hunters on the ground floor that injected themselves with something, gaining new energy and inhuman strenght all of a sudden. For a moment, Shen Wei wondered whose side is more monstrous in this fight...

Ye Zun cursed. His precious familiars were dropping down one by one. Not like they wouldn't be able to match the vampire hunters in terms of skill but those f*ckers were dying pretty fast as well. He looked up to see how his brother is holding. Not bad. He just send back with a wave of his arm several bloody ice spikes that aimed for him and the shooters upstairs. Oh, and sleeping beauty is joining the fight as well, surprisingly... And pretty desperate. From his source he knew the vampire hunters were instructed to not use "adrenalin rush" unless absolutely neccessary. It was a pretty new finding and was supposed to be a secret weapon.
At least, he can see the effects with his own eyes... on the other hand, it might mean the hunters aren't planning on leaving a single vampire survivor tonight. Would be the Chief of SID as cunning as that? He nodded to his last familiar who quickly impaled a vampire with a wooden chair leg and hurried to her master who shot the same vampire that wanted to get up again with a gun he took from a dead hunter earlier. He quickly whispered something to her. She nodded and hurried to give the information to Shen Wei.

Meanwhile, Shen Wei watched with anxious eyes how Zhao Yunlan enjoyed his killing spree. He and three other hunters were the only ones left downstairs facing maybe 10 still standing vampires, including the Lord and his 4 bodyguards.
Not that he would be worried for the hunter's well-being... definitely not... right? But if the one person they had made pact with goes down, both he and his brother would become targets as well.
"Master Shen Wei! Master Ye Zun...!"
Shen Wei turned to face the female familiar just as a long spike pierced through her chest. She looked at the velvety red tip sticking out from her sternum and wobbled. Shen Wei caught her quickly in his arms and set her down gently on the stairs. "Sherry!" He called out to her but even he knew, there was no way of saving her.
"M-master Ye Zun... said... to withdraw... he will be... going first..." Shen Wei nodded and watched the light of life disappear from her dark eyes. He understood Ye Zun's concern, unlike himself, Ye Zun was definitely on the hunters' extermination list and one Zhao Yunlan can hardly do anything about that even if the brothers help them win.
But Zhao Yunlan left him to defend the stairs...
A sudden shake of the floor or maybe the whole building, however, forced him to brace himself. He could hear yelps and scared gasps and dangerous cracks of the building structures all around.
"Take him down!!!" He heard Zhao Yunlan's voice carry amongst the overall chaos. Yes, one of the Lord's bodyguards had his hand on the floor but before the arrows and bullets could hit their target on time, the baroque style painted ceiling depicting Diana's Hunt collapsed...

Well, that was a bit chaotic! Sorry! XD
Anyway, it's funny how nobody believes the other person, right? XD
