After a few days, The media had reported more on the victims of the alleged serial killer.
"The RCMP have currently given out information regarding the murders committed by the now infamous Vampire Jack the Ripper, as the masses have taken to calling him or her." is what the news had said, "All the victims were all either suspected criminals, or former inmates, as well as a few affiliated with some biker groups such like the infamous Hell's Angels. while it is true that this individual is following similar patterns to our very own Angel of Vengeance, we do have reason to believe that this individual only wants to get rid of every individual who transgressed on the lives of other humans" and I turned off the news after that was said. I then got up and put on my jacket, to which Ivy had said
"Rook, where you going?" and Flame, Blade, and Tamamo Cat, all looked over and Blade was the first one to speak after.
"Rook, is something up?" he asked.
"I am going to pay an old friend a visit" I say
Flame then spoke up "what, visiting an old ex girlfriend?" he smirked as I know he was joking
"No, you know that I don't have one." I say. I then walk out the house, while saying: "Make sure Ivy doesn't burn the house down while I am out ok?"
I then got on my motorcycle and drove a short while to where my best friend lives.
KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK KNOCK, KNOCK. KNOCK KNOCK
I then waited for the door to open up, and it was my friend who opened.
"Hey Toby, How's it hanging man?" I say happy to see him. he was taller than I was, by about six or seven inches, he had skin that is tan, he is thin and... "you shaved? and got a haircut? I though you were really going to go for that whole afro and beard thing" I say, as he let me in, and we sat down and started chatting.
"So, I take it you heard about the Vampire Jack the ripper the media is talking about?" I asked him
"Yea, they really got the whole city in a tizzy over this. similar to the outbreak a few years back yea?" he said
"yea, but then again, when has the media not made something blown out of proportion?" I said
"True" he replied. "But I don't think this person is that bad a guy if they are using their power to kill those who had been wrongdoers, kinda like you" he said
"Yea, but the difference between him and I is, He may be able to kill people who may have done wrong, but I Will kill people who have done the worst wrongs, and can sense it too, as well as destroy every sinner on earth" I say.
"No doubt about that Rook," he said, "But you were always the edgy person,"
"I AM THE EDGE!" I say joking, which caused both of us to laugh.
I then notice his computer screen, which had tabs open to research of Jack the ripper, and Vampires, as well as other mythological creatures, and figures of the past.
"Research of a new game?" I asked him
"That? Oh yea, I'm planning on it taking place in an alternate timeline of the anime world, one where modernity and history mix in this world, at the behest of delusional, and all kinds of chaos ensues" he said, "Ah but that won't be done and coded for a while" he said
"ah ok, is it just in the planning phase then?" I ask.
"Yea, might take long though, have other projects on the back burner as well" he said.
"Ah I see, well, it was nice talking with you bud, I need to make sure that my house is still in one piece" I say and we shared a laugh as I left, and turned over to drive to Halifax, driving over the bridge. the moment I got over I noticed a scene going down with evil intent. as that happened, luckily it was night, and I transformed, going over to find the sinner, in an ally cornering a woman, trying to get her to have sexual acts with him, by the look of it. And, when he heard my chopper, he stopped, looked over, as did the woman, who was quite the looker, mind you, and I turned my gaze to the woman, and motioned for her to leave. she promptly got out of there faster then deadpool regenerating his lost head.
"Th-Th-The Angel of Vengeance." he said before I walked up to him, picked him up, and looked into his eyes, putting him through an eternity of torment due to the amount of victims he has had. Of course, this inevitably killed him. which didn't bother me. protecting the people was more important to me than those sinners on this earth were. just then, out of the blue, I felt a knife go into my back. I was still transformed, so it didn't affect me. but I heard a voice behind me, sounding like an English gentleman,
"pardon me chap, but I assure you, that this heresy must go"
I then turn around to look at who just tried to stab me, he was gone. I pulled out the knife, which was glowing hot, and threw it down, I then felt a clawed hand try and stab me, I grabbed it, and flipped him over. surprisingly, I didn't sense any evil or sin on this man. he was wearing an old Victorian era trench coat, and had the look of a doctor, except, his eyes were glowing, like a vampire's would in Skyrim.
"YOU ARE INNOCENT..." I said "I have no wish to fight you, our goal is the same" I then raised out a hand to him, and picked him up.
"You are not the mindless beast that the media has made you out to be, eh old chap?" he said to me
I looked at him and shock my head.
"May we cross paths again, Angel of Vengeance" he said before disappearing into the night. i though nothing of it and drove off home. By the time I had gotten back home, I had already gone back to normal, and luckily my house was still standing. I go in and tell everyone what had just happened.
"Oh my gosh are you ok rook?" Ivy had said,
"Ivy, while I am the rider, I am LITERALLY IMMORTAL. of fucking course I am ok" I say
"At least we know he is not an enemy." Blade said while patting Tamamo cat on the head
"Yea, but he is not exactly an ally either" Flame said
"True, but for now, at least, we do not need to worry about him" I said, though deep in the back of my mind I couldn't help but have this nagging feeling that I know who this mysterious individual is. Like the writer is trying to tell me something.
Nothing really eventful happened that night, except for the fact that it was Ivy's turn to lock the door tonight.
"Can you handle that Ivy?" I asked.
"Of course I can" she said
As I went to sleep that night, thankfully Blade kept the noise to a minimum, though, I couldn't help but feel like something was forgotten. I fell asleep though, and was surprised at what I saw when I woke up.
