Landing behind the bandit leader, Gray pointed a finger nail near his neck pushing it deep enough to make blood flow as he held a murderous gaze at the remaining bandits. "If you want your boss to live I suggest you stay back".
Not at all intimidated by the words of a kid the bandits came rushing to save their boss. "Stop you fools, the kids a vampire", said the leader of the bandits as he saw Gray's glowing eyes. Halting in their tracks the bandits looked at the boy with horrified expressions as they heard what their leader had said.
"Now listen kid, if you can just put your hand down, I'm sure I can help you with something".
Hearing this Gray chuckled at the bandit as he dug his nail deeper into his neck. "Oh you think you can help me. What makes you think I need your help", he said as as he reached for the keys on the bandit belt. "If you don't want anything,why are you doing this"?. The bandit said with horrified look on his face. Reaching the keys Gray smiled as he stared right into the bandits eyes. "Because you choose the wrong people to rob today and you're going to pay for it", he said as he threw the key into one of the iron carriages. Looking at the direction in which the key was thrown the bandit's expression got darker as he tried to escape Gray's grasp.
But before he could even move his vision was completely turned upside down. 'Huh, what happened. Am I falling down or something?'. Those were the bandits last thoughts as his his life was cut short.
Seeing their bosses head cut off,the bandits snapped out of the of their fears as the they tried to kill Gray. But as they attacked him , it was as if they were moving in slow motion.
'Huh, what's going on, why do their attacks feel so slow',Gray thought as he dodged their attacks with ease. "Hey brother you might wanna move out of the way", the kid in the carriage said as he removed the silver chains on his hands with a devilish smile.
As soon as he heard what the kid said ,Gray turned around to see an eighth feet wolf with black fur appear out of the carriage standing on it's hind legs. "What the fuck have I done"
Gray said as every hair on his body stood up. Looking down at the bandits,the werewolf smiled with all it's fangs on display as he walked towards them. "Hey guys it's been awhile hasn't it", the werewolf said with a heavy voice that made the ground tremble. Standing in front of the group the werewolf moved his head towards the group as his smile widened more. "Now for your own safety, I suggest you run". Hearing this the bandits turn around with horrified looks as they tried to run away from the wolf, but no matter where they tried to go their fate was sealed. Moving forward the wolf pounced and tore through the flesh of a bandit who couldn't move because he was frozen stiff from horror. As the bandit fell to the ground dead the wolf appeared out of know where and bit the neck of the second bandit as he used his nails to skewer the third.
Turning around to see his friends dead the last bandit tripped and fell. But as he tried to get up, the wolf appeared right in front of him, with chunks of meat and blood stuck in it's mouth. Bending down to look the bandit in the eye, the wolf smiled and in the blink of an eye the bandit was swallowed whole. Watching all this unfold, Gray was petrified at the sight of mangled bodies and blood,but what he was even more afraid of was the werewolf standing over the bodies with it's claws and teeth covered in blood. If one was to describe it, it looked like a demon summoned from hell with only one purpose. To destroy anything or anyone that crosses it's path. "Now bloodsucker tell which family do you hail from".

"What the hell are you talking about", Gray said as he kept his distance from the wolf. "Don't play with me, I know a vampire when I see one". 'Bloodsucker, vampire what is he talking about '. Not knowing what the wolf meant, Gray thought it was messing with him. But then he remembered how the smell of blood made his mouth water and how his sister was sinking her teeth into a dead merchants neck "I a vampire?". As he thought about it he suddenly felt sluggish and fainted.

"Brother wake up, c'mon wake up brother!" Waking up to his sister's shouts Gray tried to make out his surroundings as he sat up. Looking around he noticed that he was inside a tent with a blanket on his lap and a lit lamp nearby indicating it that it was still nighttime. "Marie where are we?". He said as his eyes moved towards a third figure a who was sitting near the entrance of the tent. Suddenly on alert, Gray jumped in front of Marie while looking at the person with horrified eyes. "Slow down brother, I ain't your enemy. Sorry I didn't introduce myself earlier, my name is Zilders Crescent of the Crescent
pack but you can call me Zilders", the kid said extending his hand with a smile as Gray glared at him.
Still not receiving a handshake the werewolf placed his hands behind his head with an embarrassed look. "Well I understand, guess I would be weary myself if I saw a giant wolf who tore guys to shreds extend a hand for a handshake ".
" Brother that wasn't nice, he was the one who protected us while you were asleep for two days ", Marie said with a glare. Listening his sister, Gray was shocked by how long he slept for. " Wait I slept that long, and you were with him the whole time ", Gray said as he stared holes into Zilders. " Hey easy there, I helped you with the bandits and protected you and your sister, can't that by a little bit of trust", Zil said raising his hands in defense. Thinking about it Gray noticed that if he wanted to harm them ,he could have done it while he was asleep for the pass two days . "Fine, I'll trust you, for now",Gray said as his eyes glowed red. 'And he thinks I'm intimidating'. Zilders thought as he breathed a sigh of relief. "Cool, now let's go over the introduction. My name's Zilders Crescent what's yours?". " Gray Hunter and my little sister here is Marie Hunter. "Huh ,Hunter I've never heard of such family before",Zil said. "Well we don't hail from any vampire family because we were born humans", Gray said with an annoyed tone. " That means you were turned by a vampire huh. Well, we'll talk about that later but now let's talk about the matter at hand", Zil said with serious tone. "I know you guys want to get to the dark regions but why do guys wanna go there when you don't know anything about the place" he said .
"I don't think we are obligated to answer that without you telling us something about yourself", Marie said with a stern face. "Hahaha okay fine but damn, you look so cute when you get serious Marie" Zil said wiping his tears from laughing earlier. Hearing this Marie blushed so hard that a face became red. "Well as you know I'm a werewolf but I'm a different type of wolf that is calledan Omega", Zil said. "What's an Omega", Gray said with a curious look. "An Omega is a werewolf who is banished from their pack, and in the dark regions those type of werewolves are looked down on. So I travelled out of the dark regions in search of a meaningful life, and well in the end my travels lead me here", Zil said with a sad smile on his face. But quickly brushing it off he returned to his normal self. "So I guess this is enough to tell me your situation" he said with a smirk. Sighing Gray felt reluctant to tell him anything, but he had to. "Fine , me and my little sister are going to the dark regions to give this item to a man named Ray Bloodvine. It was my dad's last wish", Gray said with sadness in his eyes. " So are you satisfied", Gray said staring at Zilders. Um yeah, quick question here, did you just say Ray Bloodvine, said Zil . "Yeah that's his name", Gray said. "You gotta kidding me, your dad knew the "Ray Bloodvine", Zil said dumbfounded as Gray looked at him with a confused expression. "What, don't you know who Ray Bloodvine is?"Zil said. As both siblings shook their heads. " Man are you guys hermits or something, Zil said shocked at their expressions. " In the end of the holy war, many creatures were killed in the war but the ones that survived became unstoppable beings. And one of those creatures is the vampire lord Ray Bloodvine, but in the dark regions he is known by another name . "Blood God Ray". In a war where blood was always spilled the man became unstoppable because any blood spilled could be controlled by him no matter the creature it came from and if he even gets a taste of that blood he gains traits that his enemy has. The man's a legend", Zil said with his eyes twitching. " And that's the guy you guys want to go find huh", Zil said staring at them with a stern look on his face. " Yeah that's right " Gray said nonchalantly. "Well I can take you to the dark regions, but taking you to him would be a lot harder",Zil said. " But you can get us to him right?", Gray said with a smug look. " Yeah I can but one of you might die on the way" said Zil . "Yeah I knew you could- wait what?"
