The Last Vampire [DXD]

Volume 2 - Chapter 5

"Astral Blackwell... The Sin of Wrath... Hmph, well then Brother, let's have a family reunion." Astral says with a devilish smirk.

After traveling for a few hours, Vali soaring the sky with his Divine Dividing, Astral turning into a bat to fly off, and Arkab using his magic to create an elixir that will grant him the ability to fly, they all spread up in search of the Sins.

Europe.

Astral and his two older brothers find themselves in Europe as they search for their siblings. Arkab explained that first of their siblings to find would be Kriassia as she is easily swayed.

Remembering bits and pieces of his time with his sister, Astral struggles to even remember what she looked like.

"Little Brother, would you be a dear and pass me the bowl of desserts." Asked Kriassia as she wiped the crumbs of bread off her face.

"Why do you want it? I thought we needed blood to survive. We don't really need other stuff." Astral responded, sliding the bowl across the table.

"Well you think that because Father wants the boys on a strictly blood diet. It helps increase our strength, but I don't want to be the strongest Vampire Woman in existence. I just want a boyfriend. A cute one. He doesn't have to be a Vampire, he could be Human. But he has to have abs and a long-"

"Ack- Sister, I don't want to hear that! Anyways, Father favors you, does he not? As well as Atha and Klaor." Young Astral says as he sips a cup of blood. His eyes flicker red and his fangs grow for a second before he goes back to normal.

"He hates all of us equally ever since the Bastard was born. Klaor hates our father more than the rest of us combined. He says it's because of the way Father treats you and the Bastard." She explains while stuffing her mouth with desserts.

"Who are Klaor and Atha?"

Vali looks back at Astral in surprise as Arkab's eyes widen. He seems confused for a split second but changes his expression when Astral notices.

"You're starting to remember then I assume?" He questioned.

"Klaor and Atha Blackwell. Klaor is our older brother and Atha is our youngest sister. What sparked your memory about those two?"

"I had a flashback of me and Kriassia. We were at a table eating and she said that Klaor hated our father. She said that he-"

"Forget about that bastard. He doesn't deserve a place in your memories. Ahem- I've found Kriassia's castle and she has a few guards at the entrance it seems."

"For protection I assume. Well allow me to lure them away from the house while you two try to convince her. I need a warmup anyways. It's been a while since I've fought in this body." Astral says as he takes off.

Vali and Arkab share a look of annoyance at their brother's antics before approaching the castle in hopes of Kriassia becoming their ally.

The guards who surrounded the castle heard a strange whistling noise. Sensitive to their vampiric hearing, they wondered what it could be so five of them went to check it out while the others stayed behind.

"Who's out there?" One of them shouted.

"Ack!" One of them was impaled by a stake that was thrown from 100 meters away. The guard fell down, his body desiccated and pale.

(This is how all Vampires look after dying or being desiccated so if you see me using that term just envision that that's how they look)

"What the hell was that? Whatever is out there shouldn't be taken lightly.. we must protect Lady Kriassia from whoever it might be." The guard says to his comrade.

"Is it a Vampire hunter? Or maybe a Werewolf?" One of them questioned before hearing the sounds of distant screaming. Someone was invading the castle and killing the henchmen there.

At the same time, Astral drops down from the tree he was in and stares at the guards. "Well hello there friends. I am Astral Blackwell but I assume you all know me as the Sin of Wrath and as Kriassia's little brother. I will not spare your life but I will ask my dear sister to bury your corpses instead of just burning them." He said smugly as he dashed forward.

The two vampires zoomed around him, throwing punches at him but they missed all of them. Astral kicked the first Vampire into the air and grabbed the second one, flinging him into a tree. A rigid branch of the tree he was thrown on impaled his chest and he slowly began desiccating. The other guards ripped the stick from his chest and he returned to his natural color and the veins that were starting bulge out of his skin went down.

His wound healed in a few minutes but it did not erase the horror of what happened. Of how quickly his life could be taken at the hands of Astral Blackwell.

Revealing his fangs, Astral pierced the neck of one of the guards. His eyes flickered red as he consumed the blood from his body. Having enough of it, he tossed the guard aside and drove a stake through his heart. The guard desiccated immediately signifying his death.

"A descendant of an Original is a Vampire Hunter?"

"What do I look like? Alucard? Haha, no. I am simply getting back to my true full power and I needed the blood of a Vampire to do so. Of course now I have to get rid of the evidence so why don't you do me a favor and just die easily." Astral said as he rushed them.

Meanwhile, Vali and Arkab were busy killing the rest of the henchmen that surrounded the entrance. As more fled to help defeat Astral, Kriassia became more worried. Deciding to come out, she appeared in front of her brothers in a instant.

"Why are you losers here? I'm just trying to enjoy my immortal life and you guys are ruining it. You killed my henchmen. They were all cute too. You could have killed the ugly ones." She said with a pout.

"Sister, we've come because there's an issue that requires the strength of all our siblings." Vali says as he approaches Kriassia.

"I'm not interested in helping you two. I have other things to attend to. Like finding more Vampires to protect and defend my castle. Honestly it's a shame you even came here. You're wasting your time with me."

"Sister, please. If not for them, then for me?" Astral says walking towards the three of them. Blood was covered on his suit and on his cheek. His knuckles were a bloody from the punches he had thrown against the other Vampires.

Kriassia gasped as she looked at her youngest brother. She was lost for words. She hadn't seen since many years ago when they fought as their father, Lucius Blackwell. She ran up to him and wrapped her arms around him.

"Brother, I missed you so much. When I heard that you were almost killed in that battle months ago I killed everyone in a 10 mile radius for days. I thought I lost my favorite baby brother but when Vali called me a few nights ago and said that you were okay I was happy. I love you, Astral." She said hugging him tightly. Returning the hug, Astral whispers something into his big sister's ear and her eyes widen with surprise.

"So that's the scenario then hm? Well then I believe I should help all of you. Allow me to retrieve my mythical spear."

"What did you say to her, Brother?" Vali asked with a small appreciative smile. Astral patted his shoulder before turning around and looking off into the sunset.

"I came to warn you that in a few months, there will be a group of powerful vampires such as myself with the intent to kill you and your family." Quintillus said with a harsh glare.

"I just told her about an old friend..."
