My Vampire Awakening 6

Minny and Tobi’s strength was far from their older days, at least when beast gear wasn’t taken into account. They would struggle to fight against even an Intermediate Tier beast, never mind a King Tier beast.

And now, seeing the rampage it was causing in their office, both Minny and Tobi were thinking back to their former selves. At Minny’s height, she could have perhaps even gone against a Demon Tier beast on her own, and now she amounted to nothing.

But it was because of these experiences and having been at the height of her strength to where she was now, that she knew the person in front of her had to be extremely powerful.

She could see no beast gear on his body, and with a simple kick, a King Tier beast had been sent flying through several office cubicles and out of the window. The man looked unfazed as he stood there, and he had called out for one name in particular, one family name.

“I’m looking for a Talen?” the man asked.

Immediately Tobi looked at Minny.
 “Isn’t that your family name, does that mean he’s looking for you?”

Her family name, just like her brother’s, was something that she had decided to keep a secret. Otherwise, the question would always be asked, don’t you have the same family name as that Hero?

It was something she didn’t want to be reminded about. Yet it was clear this man, who knew the family name, didn’t know who she was, because even though he was looking directly at the two, he had still asked the question.

“Come on, let’s get out of here.” Minny said. “We don’t even know who he is?” Minny tugged Tobi’s shirt.

“What do you mean, he just killed that beast and saved us, it’s clear he’s a good person.”

Minny wasn’t so sure, and in the middle of their little spat, several more portals could be seen sparking and opening up behind him, and before they knew it, more of the King Tier beasts had approached the man.

Despite not knowing whether he was good or bad, Minny couldn’t help but call out the danger in front of her.

“Look out!” Minny shouted.

The green-haired man moved his head to the side, and an extended beast arm hit the floor. The man then grabbed the arm, pulled the body towards him, and punched it in the center of its stomach.

The body crashed into the floor and looked to go several floors further down. As another two went towards him, the man quickly moved right to them and swung both of his arms, ripping half of their bodies apart.

Just like that, three King Tier beasts were dealt with without any problem at all. When the man turned to look at them, that’s when they both saw it.

“Red eyes…” Minny said.

“Red eyes… does that mean he’s a… a vampire… they’re glowing as well!” Tobi exclaimed.

“That’s impossible though, when my father defeated Immortui all of the vampires should have been cured… it no longer exists!”

The man walked over to the two of them, and seeing how fast the man had moved, Minny knew it was useless to run.

“I would appreciate it if you didn’t call me one of those scum. Putting both of us in the same sentence doesn’t sit well with me,” the man said. “Anyway, since I’m here, I assume one of you two is a Talen.”

Tobi turning his head was a complete giveaway, and Minny felt like she couldn’t hide it anymore either.

“Who are you… why are you looking for me?” Minny asked on guard.

Was it an alien, was it another Celestial that had come to target her, maybe Immortui had somehow come back and was plotting his revenge against their whole family, but she could do nothing no matter what it was.

“The name’s Gary, Gary Dem.” The man pointed to himself. “And in this situation, I’m just an escort. Right now we don’t have time, we have to meet the others.”

“Others?” Minny asked.

A powerful rumble was felt and the whole building started to shake, Minny had almost lost her footing and fell to the floor but before she did, Gary had grabbed her, keeping her stable.

She then looked up directly at his face and it was the first time she noticed if one looked past the green hair he was actually somewhat handsome.

“Okay, let’s just go, no need to hold hands!” Tobi said as he pushed himself through, breaking the two of them up, and started to head to the elevator.

“Hey, not that way, I said we’re in a rush.” Gary then pointed toward the glass window.

But they were on the 30th floor, they weren’t vampires anymore, there was no way they could survive something like that. Before they knew it, Gary had picked up Minny and Tobi and placed both under his arm.

“Wait, what about the rest?” Minny asked.

In the office there were still others that were alive.

“Don’t worry, as long as you aren’t with them, they won’t be in danger,” Gary replied.

Before they knew it, Gary was already running. He kicked the air before reaching the window and just with that power alone, the reinforced glass broke. Right after, he leapt out of the window and all three started to fall down to the ground.

Tobi was screaming his head off while Minny tried to remain calm. Just as they reached the floor, Gary bent his knees bracing the impact and destroying part of the concrete flooring beneath them.

“We’re… alive!” Tobi said.

Slowly Gary placed both of them on the ground, and Tobi nearly collapsed again until Minny held him upright.

Minny was ready to ask Gary what was happening, what the situation was, why did beasts appear and who he was again? It was clear that he didn’t want to kill her, at least not now anyway.

But even after learning his name, she had no idea who he was. All of those questions stopped though as she saw the situation on the street. Flying vehicles had crashed, and the streets themselves were empty, void of people.

Instead it was filled with the carcasses of many beasts on the ground. Many of them looked to be higher tier than that of King Tier as well. They littered the entire floor.

“Did you do all of this?” Tobi asked.

“No, I was too focused on trying to find you. It’s him that did all of this.” Gary looked ahead.

And they could see a man dressed in black with a trench coat, he had short black hair messy on top of his head, on his back, there was an axe and a sword. A strange combination, and strange to see someone in this day and age walking down the street like this.

It was hard for Minny to tell if even what he had on him was beast gear. It certainly didn’t feel like it, especially since both of the weapons including what he had laying across his chest were red in color.

It almost felt more like blood weapons instead. In this day and age, she wondered how one could even get blood weapons.

“You did a good job, Tai!” Gary called out with a wave.

“You two should have a lot to talk about,” Gary looked back at Minny, “considering how the two of you are related and all.”

Tai had finally gotten to the others, and with a closer look, Minny was wondering if she recognized this person, but just like with Gary she had no idea who he was.

“Tai…” Minny asked.

“Tai Talen,” the man dressed in black replied.

It looked like Tai was ready to say something else when the heavy rumbling was felt once again. This time, they didn’t have to figure out or ask where it was coming from. Just around the corner from one of the large skyscrapers, the body of a giant beast could be seen.

It had a giant crab-like claw, with two large heavy feet. Orange and mangled with eyes on its giant clawed hands as well as the centre of its head. It was almost the size of one of the skyscraper-sized buildings itself.

“It’s a Demon Tier beast,” Tai said instantly.

This was something even Minny couldn’t be sure about, just because a beast was big didn’t mean it was Demon Tier, yet he had confirmed it in an instant.

“Right.” Gary added. “This is going to be troublesome!”

The beast looked down the street at the group, and then opened its mouth revealing hundreds of sharp teeth. It was ready to let out an almighty roar, until a figure burst right through its mouth creating a large hole.

It happened in an instant. The entire beast’s body looked to have frozen, and following it a big crash occurred ripping part of the concrete street. Gary quickly got in the way of the others and swung both of his hands.

Visible lines could be seen coming out on the street and ripping the broken concrete apart and pushing it back, dropping it on the floor.

Following the chaos, there was a loud thud, as the Demon Tier beast had fallen just like that, and instead they could now see a man in red armour walking their way.

“What is happening, this has been one of the craziest days of my life!” Tobi exclaimed. “And I went through a lot as a child.”

Minny though didn’t have the same question, because out of all the people that she had seen today, this one she did recognize.

“Uncle Ray!” Minny called out.

Ray walked over with his arms open wide, hoping that Minny would come and run towards him, but she did no such thing, and when he realized that she wasn’t going to, he quickly folded his arms.

“Where did you go… where have you been this entire time!” Minny asked as tears started to flow down her face.

Although Minny called Ray her uncle she knew it wasn’t correct, it was just a name she gave him. The two of them had spent an incredibly long time together, over a 1000 years while being stuck in Quinn’s shadow.

It allowed the two of them to get to know each other well, and she would never forget him, but after everything that happened with Quinn, Ray had just disappeared, never returning once, until this moment right now.

Initially happy to see him, she started to be filled with anger.

“I guess this isn’t exactly the time for us to be talking about reunions,” Ray said.

“Right, I think we should get to the point.” Gary asked. “The reason why we’re here with you, is because we need you Minny, or more precisely we need your blood.”

“My blood.”

“Yes and not just the blood of any Talen.” Tai added. “We need Quinn to wake up from his eternal slumber, we need Quinn Talen to help us. We knew they were going to come after you, because if they get rid of you, then no one can wake up Quinn Talen!”

“Before you ask, my blood won’t work either.” Ray answered. “Although this body’s gotten a lot stronger getting used to my old power, it’s not my old body, and it seems to not be pure enough to wake him up, which seems to be the problem of another person as well.”

All of the others in the group looked at each other when they heard Ray say those words.

“So we’re here to protect you, and escort you to Quinn.” Gary explained. “It’s too much to explain right now, but that’s the short version of it all.”

“Wait!” Minny said, holding her hands out. “But I think there’s a big mistake, and you should have known this as well.

“I’m not against waking up dad or helping you guys, something clearly strange is going on, but my blood won’t work either. I’m not… I’m not a real Talen!”

After Minny said those words, the look on all of their faces immediately dropped.

“I knew we shouldn’t have listened to the dragon.” Tai complained.

“But… my brother.” Minny said. “My brother Galen, his blood should work, we can use his blood to wake him up.”

“Alright.” Gary said. “Then let’s go get your brother!”

All of them nodded in agreement, but Minny still had no idea what had happened. Why had these people gathered, who were they? Why did they need to wake up her father?

“Let’s get Galen.” Ray said. “And wake up your father from his damn slumber, he’s slept long enough.”
