A large number of vehicles came to the factory and started to help the hostages who weren't in great shape but they were still alive.
Ragnar and the rest have been searching for these missing people for a week.
They found out that the people being kidnapped were being targeted by supernatural entities. Some were turned but most of them were used for food.
As their were numerous bite marks left along the bodies of them and there was a pit underneath the factory were all those who were dead were tossed into.
Ragnar and the rest were outside the building with some people in uniforms.
Samwell took a puff of a cigar and releasing the smoke from his lips. "We took out all the subordinates in this area and the only ones still alive should be the heads of the operation."
He reported to a man who wore a simple suit and glasses, who wrote everything on a note pad.
Ragnar sat on a makeshift bench with the other four.
Theo and Eamon seated eating food after this meanwhile Aruka was flirting with the nurse who was attending to his injuries.
Ragnar didn't bother as he got up from the bench. "I'm gonna go for a walk." He said and everyone just gave a thumbs up.
Ragnar walked into the dark forest seeming with out any sense of direction and he stood in there about 100 meters away from the others.
"You can come out now."
He said and nothing happened at first than he sense a presence from above he looked up and saw someone.
And before they could hit the floor Ragnar jumped in the air and cought them.
"The saved individual smiled than in a sudden motion grabbed his face and kissed him.
Ragnar summoned Ombre's shadows to give them a plateform to stand on as he reciprocate the kiss.
Their tongues danced around each-other as they exchanged spit.
The person pulled themselves away and Ragnar got a good look at them.
They were a woman. She was around Ragnar age being in her 20's with fair skin and light blue puffy curly hair that resmbled a cloud. With light blue eyes.
Her body was tone and well-defined and wore a simple pair of black shirt and pants with leather with a fur caller.
This was Jane Cielo, an one of the few young hunters who actually match Ragnar in a couple areas and someone he has an on/of again fling.
Ragnar smiled goofly, to the point if anyone saw he smiling like this, they believed they were looking at a different person.
"Let me guess, they sent you to monitor me?" He asked between kisses.
"Yes, but i also wanted to...see you and pass a message."
"Like what?" He said while leaving marks along her neck.
"You remember that group you were hunting a couple of weeks back?"
"Yeah, what about them?"
"Well there news that the Leader Ivan was arrested and is being held by police."
Ragnar stopped his kissing and turned to look at her. "What?"
"Yeah but he was caught by kidnapping and it's assumed that his other teammates are already dead." She finished as she made Ragnar release her from their embrace.
"He also was seemingly caught kidnapping 2 people and torturing one of them."
"Who were they?" Ragnar questioned his voice having a faint trace a panic.
"Well one was the son of the billionaire Maxwell Hawkins and the other was some kid by the name Lazarus Thomas."
Jane looked up and saw an expression she rarely saw across his face. Horror, shock and terror.
He immediately grabbed her by the shoulders and asked. "Is he okay did anything happen to him?"
Jane was more surprised when she saw his reaction and smiled. "I'm surprised. The cold wolf of the Von Helsings reacting like this for someone he isn't related to is surprising."
Is he okay?"
Yeah, yeah Maxwell was-."
"Why the heck are you talking about that piece of shit. I meant Lazarus, is he okay?"
Jane looked at him with a suspicious look across her face but she released a sigh and spoke. "Yes he is fine but he was released from the hospital a few days ago and we currently don't know where he is currently resting."
"Ahh, thank god! That son of a bitch had be worried!" Ragnar said as he place his hand over his chest and released a sigh of relief.
"Thank you for that. I appreciate it!"
He said as he planted a kiss on her lips which she didn't reject.
"If you want to make it up to me you know what to do."

Lazarus couldnt say he has meet many of his friends parents or relatives so he doesn't knows much about their family tree, mainly due to him not wanting to seem like he was invading their privacy.
Considering he never told them anything about him makes a bit ironic on his part.
He stared at the Asian man who eyes hasn't felt his sight. His stare contained intrigue, surprise and a bit of malice.
While the younger male who sat to his side who appeared to be his son stared at Cassandra with anger in his eyes
"So... Lazarus was it. How do you know my little niece and nephew?" Rai asked as an icebreaker, to which Lazarus looked at Cass who sat on his lap while rubbing her head on his neck.
I've known them for ten years if I'm correct?" He said as he turned to Lason who took a sip of a red liquid with a cheeky grin on his face.
"Yeah it's been ten years since you were 11 when we met you."
Cassandra started to plant kisses on his neck but than.
"Chomp."
She took a bite, sinking her fangs into his neck and taking sips of blood the scent of his blood wafted through the air and everyone eyes shifted to a crimson red color.
Their fangs protruding from their mouths.
"You have quite the interestingly smelling blood." Rai said witg his hand covering his mouth as his eye stared at Lazarus who stood still with Cassandra drinking his blood.
"Seem like I do."
