From the Journal of Robert Frohmeyer:
I am impressed with the level of training Drake's people have. Pendragon sent a force to be reckoned with. I had to wonder if anyone was left at Pendragon's estate. The attack was successfully repelled and then the clean up of bodies began. In some cases bodies would have been better described as piles of ash. That's all that was left when Josh was through with them. ***** “Shit!” Scud said. He turned to Robert, “This is why I wanted you to stay downstairs.” “I'm not going to hide away cowering behind my son.” Robert said. “It should be the other way around.” Robert peered around the corner at the group of familiars making their way down the hall. “Besides they're just familiars.” “They're cannon fodder.” Scud corrected. “Pendragon doesn't give a damn about them. Their only purpose is to die wearing us down.” “How do you know Pendragon doesn't care about them?” Robert said as Scud pulled him through another door. “Because vampires don't put a familiar that has any value in the line of fire.” Scud explained. "I know from experience. When Damaskinos made his big power play, he made damn sure that I was on my way to a safe house. He wanted to make sure he could still use me after. His big plan just blew up in his face.” Scud peeked out the door to see that the crowd of familiars had passed by. “Come on.” “What about them?” Robert asked pointing in the direction the familiars had gone. “Minns will take care of them. It's the suckheads I'm worrying about because they are looking for me.” Scud said, making his way down the hall. “Well, when they show up I'll be by your side.” Robert said. “I don't want you at my side.” Scud said stopping and turning around to face his father. "These suckheads are going to stop at nothing to get their hands on me." “Josh, I've been hunting bloodsuckers since you were three, I can take care of myself. “ Robert insisted. “Look I'm a vampire, you hate vampires. I figure you don't need anymore reason to hate me.” Scud told him. “What is that supposed to mean?” Robert managed to get our before he found himself falling to the floor. Looking at his feet he saw a barbed tail wrapped around his ankles. Almost immediately he saw something green, scaly and almost reptilian leap over him. Robert looked up to see that the creature had a vampire in it's grip. The tail released his feet and Robert rolled onto his knees watching the demonic thing's jaws open...sideways. The vampire was looking at the creature in pure terror as the jaws clamped around the vampires throat. When the vamp's struggles ceased, the demonic thing wrenched the vamp's head from its shoulders as the vampire fell to the ground flaring into a pile of ash. Robert raised the gun and took aim at the thing's head. The demon looked down at Robert and spoke in a deep growling voice. “What are you going to do, shoot me?...Dad.” ***** When Reginald heard the explosion, he immediately began herding the released captives in that direction. As soon as he felt the sun slip below the horizon he he made his way toward the large figure that had been burned into his memory. Making sure he was holding the children as protection, he fell to his knees. “My Lord Drake. I beg your mercy.” He called out getting Drake's attention, and the attention of Blade. “I have brought you the children and the other captives that Pendragon was holding. Reginald bowed even further until his forehead was pressed against the floor. “Pendragon is not my sire and I owe him no allegiance. I was sired by Jarko Grimwood.” Drake stopped and looked at the vampire now abasing himself. “You are Jarko's child?” Drake asked "Let me see your face.” Reginald lifted himself from his position on the floor but remained on his knees. “I have served you before my lord. I was one of those who escorted your fledgling into hiding.” “I remember you.” Drake said “Have you been with Pendragon since then?” “Most of this time, yes. After the Daystar incident I thought everyone I knew was dead. I met one of Pendragon's vamps and she introduced me to their group. I had only met Pendragon once, during one of his 'sane' periods.” Reginald said. “When he called us here I realized that he is insane. I tried to tell the others, warned them to leave as soon as the sun set or face your wrath.” “Stand up!” Drake commanded. When the other vampire obeyed, Drake steeped forward letting one of his fingernail's lengthen into a sharp talon. Drake lifted his hand to the other vampire's face drawing the claw along the man's cheek. Running his finger through the blood, Drake brought that finger to his mouth licking the blood from it. Looking at the man Drake said, “Just as you can taste a human and know where that human is at all times, I have now tasted you. Take these people to safety and wait for me.” Reginald bowed. “As you wish my Lord. Pendragon is probably in his study, he spends most of his time there. He has a painting of your fledgling that he stares at constantly. Follow this hallway back the way I came until it rounds the corner. It will be the second door on the right.” Drake nodded, “Go now and keep these people safe.” The sound of footsteps approaching from the rear drew Drake's attention. Looking back he saw a group of vampires. Blade had removed his sword and a UV Grenade. Blade never turned around but spoke over his shoulder. “I've got this, you get Pendragon.” Drake spun on his heel and ran down the corridor, quickly turning the corner. Scud's little UV grenades might not kill him; but the last time one went off around him, he ended up with second and third degree burns. It was not an experience Drake wanted to repeat. ***** “You have something that belongs to me.” Pendragon looked up at the voice as did the other vampire present. The younger vampire looked to Pendragon then back at the demonic figure standing in the doorway. The younger vampire was a little over 500 years old and had always been loyal to Pendragon, serving him even in his numerous bouts of madness. He had helped Pendragon break the old laws over the centuries bringing children to his master so he could feed on the innocent blood. But nothing had prepared him for this. “Dagon, so you do live after all.” Pendragon said stepping around the desk. “And perhaps you would be so kind as to tell me what it is you think belongs to you in this room?” “Master,” The younger vampire turned toward Pendragon. “You have pitted yourself against the Blood God? Give him the painting. Do not anger him.” Pendragon looked at his servant. “You would do well not to anger me. Centuries of faithful service allows you some leniency but not in this. Be still!” Pendragon walked over to the painting and ran his fingers along the outspread wings of the figure. “I suppose you refer to this. The artist captured his likeness perfectly, yes? For now all I have is this deception of canvas and pigment, soon I will have Joshua.” Pendragon turned toward Drake. “My people are securing him as we speak.” Drake smiled at Pendrgon. “Your people are in for a shock. They have no idea what he is. “You are old enough to remember Sehkmet, do you honestly think I would make the same mistake twice? He is just as dangerous as I am because out of all of my vampiric children, he is the only one that has been given all of my gifts and abilities. Hassan died envying what he is.” “You had no right!” Pendragon roared “Joshua was mine! He belongs to me through the covenant I made with his family centuries ago.” “Let's talk about that covenant shall we.” Drake said. “You know the laws, you were there when I handed them down. You know it is a death sentence to feed on children, and yet you have and will continue to do so.” “You dare speak to me of the law!” Pendragon spat. “Tell me isn't it also the law that no vampire shall accost in any way a human under the protection of another?” “That is indeed the law, Pendragon but tell me, when has he ever been under your protection? Eli Damaskinos picked him up off of the streets when he was a teenager forced to prostitute himself to survive.” Drake snarled “When he tuned 18 and Damaskinos started whoring him out in his sex clubs was he under your protection then?” “I searched for him! Robert Frohmeyer stole him from me.” Pendragon said. “Yes Robert kept you away from him and he lost track of his son also, and yet Robert a mere human was able to trace his son's whereabouts.” Drake said nastily. “Are you telling me that you, an ancient vampire are not as capable as a human?” “I searched for him!” Pendragon insisted. Obviously not hard enough, because when Damaskinos was destroyed Danica Talos acquired him on the open market, and it was she that gave him to me.” Drake smirked. “I recognized him for what he was and I made sure that he would be at my side, for eternity.” Drake suddenly moved from the doorway grabbing the younger vamp by the throat and shoving him into the wall. Taking out a wicked looking dagger, Drake thrust it through the vamps shoulder pinning him against the wall. “You stay right there.” Drake said before turning to Pendragon. “As for you, it's finally time to pay for your crimes.” Drake said grabbing Pendragon before he could do more than turn to run. Drake leaned over the other vamp, demonic jaws opening and unhinging before they engulfed Pendragon's face draining the blood from the struggling vampire. When Pendragon's struggles ceased, Drake dropped him to the floor and threw back his head howling in triumph. Taking out his sword, he cleaved Pendragon's head from his body leaving a pile of ash. Turning to the other vamp he snarled and decapitated it also. Stepping over to the easel, Drake now back in his human form tenderly picked up the painting.While AFF and its agents attempt to remove all illegal works from the site as quickly and thoroughly as possible, there is always the possibility that some submissions may be overlooked or dismissed in error.
