Magnus simply grinned, it looks like it would be easier than he thought. Only one thing, he still wasn't weak enough to capture, his tendon wound would soon be healed. "Try as you might, it is evident on your face you are beginning to doubt your own abilities to win this fight. Of course, as much could be expected, it's not everyday you meet a vampire without a heart." Magnus told him. "Now...where were we?" He said before lunging forward, clawing madly at precise locations and various locations on Mithias's body, aiming for veins and important tendons.

With a roar, his eyes glowing brighter, Mithias called forth a burst of speed to ward off and deflect and parry as many of Magnus' attacks as possible, but the flurry was difficult to counter. He was getting cut more often than he could deliver his own attacks, staggering back, losing blood at a faster rate. Finally, furious and desperate, Mithias threw down his remaining sword and grappled Magnus, pitting his strength against him as he lunged to bite the vampire.

A vampire attempting to..feed of another? Perhaps this is how Mithias had grown so strong and skilled. Magnus delieverd a quick kick to the sternum, twice, before clasping his hands together and bashing him directly over the middle of Mithias's skull. Not hard enough to kill him, only hard enough to stun him so he could shake free of his grasp. If Mithias drank his blood, there's no telling the effects it could have. He struggled free of Mithias's grip, it was that strong but it was tight and skilled. "So...that explains your strength and skill for your age." Magnus said and smirked. "Should have known there would eventually be another vampire who fed off of other vampires for it's effect.." Magnus stepped forward, just enough to be able to reach the blade, and kicked it off into the distance. "Now that you are more or less completely unarmed.. I'll give you one last chance for survival. Give up, surrender yourself to me." He told him, only a mere foot or so between them.

Bloody, beaten, Mithias got to his feet yet again. His body was healing as rapidly as it could, but resources were low. He faced Magnus, who was very close to him, but did not attack. "Alone... I cannot stop you, Magnus." He spit blood on the ground. "You could have killed me by now, but you have not. I find no dishonor in that." He looked at him. "But, I will never agree with you. To live a lie, to live in fear, and to live without honor, is no life for me. Surrendering to you, would destroy me."

Magnus smirked, removing the claw from his prominent right hand. "Well, I guess we will have to do this the hard way? Shall we?" He told him before delivering a powerful right hook to Mithias's jaw, he went backwards a few inches and hit the ground, unconcious. Putting his claw back on Magnus grabbed Mithias and hefted him up over his shoulders, he could head the faint sounds of vehicles in the distance. He ran back to the area Lightning was at and ordered her to return to the Kilo Point HQ and tell them he had Mithias hostage, she didn't hesitate, she ran off as quickly as she could grabbing to other half of her gun to leave as little evidence as possible. He had to re-locate to a different area of the forest, the brokens limbs and blood was a dead giveaway of his location. He had to think fast, SOLDIER would be upon the area soon searching for the homing beacon in the jet. There was another cave, not far from here, deeper into the forest. He began running, he hoped he could remember the exact location.

Deeper and deeper into the forest, trying to stay in thick grass to mask the drops of blood as best as possible. The current blood wasn't his, no, it was from Mithias's recent wounds. He ran into a few dead ends, but eventually found the cave he had thought of. Shoving through the vines over the cave entrance he entered, he dropped Mithias in one of the room areas. He could use part of the vines as rope, though it wouldn't really hold him. He grabbed one of the large boulders in the cave and put it in front of the opening of Mithias's makeshift cell as best as posisble. It wouldn't hold him for long, but perhaps it would give him time for his plan to be set in motion.

Lightning soon reached Kilo Point, she had almost been spotted a few times,only a few SOLDIER remained outside. She bolted inside the door leading to the inside of the base and nearly broke the door down to get into Matt's office. "It's the old-blood.."She said near the point of collapsing from exhaustion. "He has...Mithias.." Was the last words she said before collapsing. Matt signaled for the nurse before closing the door to his office. Rhyss simply stood there, thinking it over. Matt got on the radio "Miller. It's Magnus, the old-blood. He has Mithias hostage, for what reason I do not know. Do NOT risk tracking him. We can't risk losing anymore good men. On the other hand this could very well be a trap. Don't bother with the tracking beacon, there's a good chance it's a trap as well. Get back to base, I have someone here who will help deal with this issue."

Rhyss was going to question Matt's judgement, but Matt had been correct, or atleast, he had said something that would aid him in his plans. Now all he had to do was wait and let things unfold for theirselves.

As Miller heard the incoming radio he signaled the whole convoy to stop "What? Retreat? You can't be serious?", but after a few moments of talk he finally gave in and agreed to get back. The whole convoy turned around moving back to base, all this new equipement, but he will get his chance to try it out sooner or later... When they finally arrived back in base Miller straight made his way to Matt's office knocking against the door impatiently.

Martin saw the Terebithia rise over the city behind him. He knew the sight should fill him with shock and awe, it should make him run for the hills, that is what a normal person would feel. Instead there was only one though on his mind when he saw the titan.Oh well. Gabriel hadn't said a word. Didn't matter, as long as he listened."Alight, I think we've walked far enough to have our privacy."Martin walked around Gabriel and stood in front of him so he could look the elder in the eye."I brought you here because I have a request. A selfish one, but one I hope you'll find interesting or at least entertaining enough for you to grant it."He paused to take a breath, soon all of his hard work would pay of. Here goes nothing.


"INteresting" Gabriel smiles down at the adventurous young soul. There were few who would walk up to him without invitation, and even fewer who would ask him for a request. And even among those few individuals, he knew for a fact the predominant request would be 'please stop killing my children/wife/friends/city.' It HAD been rather a long time since Gabriel had sired. "Are you sure you wish to take up the cloak of eternal life? I have lived for a long time, and it is not nearly as glorious as it might seem."

"The eternal life is a sweet bonus. And I guess the super strength and speed is pretty nice. All the other perks and problems are irrelevant."
Martin sighed.
"But the one vampire ability I really want.. is immunity to disease."
Martin pointed at his temples with both index fingers.
"I've been slowly losing my mind for two years now. I see things that aren't there, I hear smells and feel sounds. I can't know for sure what is real and what isn't."
Martin laughed nervously.
"There's still the possibility even that none of this is real and I am currently in a mental hospital, talking to the guy who thinks he is napoleon. I mean, vampires? Really? I could hardly believe myself when I found out about all this. I decided that even if none of it was real. I should still try it. It's my last hope"
A single tear rolled down.
"I just want my mind to be clear again."

Rhyss yanked the door open nearly ripping it off it's hinges and stared down at the man. So, this must be Miller. "You gunna come in or are ya gunna just stare like a idiot?" Rhyss told him. He stepped to the side allowing Miller to enter. So, this was the guy who aided them in the first assault in Kilo Point. Rhyss had kept on radio the entire time since Miller had called in for backup and supplies, this is how he heard Mithias call in Code Onyx. "Now, how exactly do you plan to assess this situation? Now it's gotten worse, a hostage situation. Frankly our priorities are killing Magnus, one man's life is a hell of a lot less than Magnus has taken alone." Matt stared at him, bewildered. "Look, I don't care who the hell you are, we already lost a lot of men. This base CANNOT survive another attack. We need all the men we can get." Matt told him. "Miller is in charge of the Tac-Unit, I'm sure he has dealt with this situation before. Miller?"

"Haha really funny.." Miller retorted as he heard Rhyss words before he entered. The situation indeed got worse as Rhyss explained and then Matt asked Miller for his opinion in this matter. "It wont be that easy he is really smart in some way I have to admit so it will be slightly difficult" Miller said before he thought for a moment about a plan while looking down, remaining silent. After a few seconds he looked up again and said "I think I have an idea, there is a way to get Mithias out of there alive, but it will be really difficult. It would make things easier if you could give us a hand..." Miller paused for a moment as he looked at Rhyss, not sure if he would assist them on the field. Then he continued pointing at the map "If I am correct the entrance to the cave is here, I could try to lure Magnus out and try to argue with him. Of course I will be onboard a helicopter to make a lot of noise and to be in safe distance. While I keep him busy a little assault team tries to get in from behind. You might encounter a few vampires so it is important to take them out quietly. I dont know how far I can lure Magnus away but I will do my best. The Team would have to sneak into the cave and get him out as soon as possible. After that the main attack could follow right up from my side a mix of mechanised infantery and some new tanks. Aswell I will have some of my snipers around the area, hiding in the trees, trust me, not even Magnus could notice them as long as the dont move. Even if they did it would be extremly difficult. So, what do you think?".

Matt and Rhyss both paused, deep in thought. In truth, the plan could work..but it wasn't exactly what Rhyss wanted alongside his own agenda. Rhyss shook his head, he had know Mithias briefly, he wouldn't have went down without a fight. And where there was a fight, there would be blood, he knew Magnus would re-locate. Of course, it could also help him with his own needs...if he could kill the teams going into the cave without too much of a hassle he could weaken their forces. Matt was first to begin speaking, but Rhyss quickly interrupted him "Yes..This could work... Though, I'd expect Magnus to have Mithias guarded with his strongest. Could pose a problem. That is why..I will personally lead the assault team to search out the cave." Rhyss told them as he retrieved Bunker Buster from it's holster on his back. "Only a vampire as old as myself and Magnus could withstand the effects of this bad boy." Rhyss told them. "Fully automatic shotgun with glass vials encased in silver shrapnel bullets engraved with crucifixes, fry the sons of bitches from the inside out." Rhyss grinned and put the gun back on his back, partly because he liked his badass weapon, mostly because of the chaos that would soon ensue from his hand.

"So, When are we going to move out?" Rhyss asked. "We'd want to go as soon as possible, while he may be holding him hostage, I'd doubt he'd keep him alive for long if he posed a threat to his location." Matt replied.

"I guess we will have to do this the hard way..." He had said.

Mithias began to return to consciousness. The words of the elder vampire echoed in his mind as he rolled to his side, his head throbbing. A darkness heavier than night surrounded him, and he realized he was in some kind of an enclosed space... a cave. Ah, that made sense.

But a lot of other things did not make sense. First and foremost, Mithias was alive. He had gone toe-to-toe with Magnus for longer than even he could have expected, and despite suicidally clinging to his cause to the very end, Magnus didn't kill him. He, on the other hand, would not have hesitated to rend Magnus from this world.

Finding himself unbound, Mithias moved to sitting as he tried to quiet his pains and focus his mind. Gabriel had wanted Magnus alive. Did that mean they were working together? Would Gabriel truly back Magnus on his plan for world domination? Mithias was horrified at the thought. In thousands of years, even in the many centuries after Mithias' young existence, Gabriel had never attempted such a thing, not to this scale. The idea struck Mithias that perhaps... after all his hatred and defiance toward his sire, the guy hadn't been as evil as he always believed. With his seemingly endless powers, Gabriel certainly wouldn't need anyone to help him. There seemed to be no explanation for their alliance.

Mithias shook his head... then immediately regretted doing so, lifting a hand to his forehead. Maybe Magnus had spared him as a favor to Gabriel, but of course Magnus was insane. More likely he had some kind of plan to use Mithias, but for what? Questions only spiraled into more questions. There was no point in taking any more action until he had some solid answers.

Mithias contemplated his own allegiance to SOLDIER. Both Gabriel and Magnus had hinted at corruption within the order. Gabriel had said that SOLDIER would wipe out an entire city of innocents just to kill one oldblood, namely himself. Magnus had said they were oppressive, and implied that they merely feigned equality and liberty while secretly dominating all, with an agenda to destroy all vampires. If this were true, then SOLDIER had strayed far from the noble mission they were created for, and the Blood Contract was a lie. Because Magnus had spared him, Mithias felt compelled to listen to the oldblood's words. If Magnus wasn't insane, then he was more of a hero than anyone.

Destroying oldbloods, one at a time, was certain to debilitate vampire influence on the world. Their power, our power, came from age and wisdom, and without our elders, we would eventually fall, leaving the world to humans alone. Something deep inside him told him that this was wrong.

Mithias rose and inspected the entrance of the cave.

Damn that was a big boulder.

Magnus simply sat cross-legged in front of the boulder blocking the chamber of the cave Mithias was located, if SOLDIER wanted him he would need to be spared to move the boulder at the very least, unless of course, there was a vampire as strong as he on their side. About a hour or so later he heard a noise coming opposite of the boulder, movement, fabric scraping ever so slightly against cave floor. Mithias was awake. "So, Finally awake I see? Enjoy your nap?" Magnus said, sarcasm evident in his voice. "I had truly hoped it would have been easier, but no, you and your loyalty to that pathetic SOLDIER. You do realize, they only keep vampires alive on their side to erradict all vampire kind?" Magnus told him. "Nevertheless, they don't stand a chance without elders like myself in their ranks, quite a pathetic sight, a elder in SOLDIER. Perhaps, you will reconsider my offer of joining me in time..either way I will get what I want. You know, I could make you like me, nearly invincible. Remove your heart, never worry about the vulnerabilites of your heart again. Of course, this would only he possible if you cursed everything those SOLDIER bastards fed you and swear your allegience to me. Imagine, power beyond your imagining. With SOLDIER eliminated we will be free to do as we want, when we want." Magnus paused for a moment as if to catch his breath. "Might I also add, drinking vampire blood can be....quite un-healthy. Like russian roulette, sometimes it strengthens you, empowers you. Other times..well let's just say I was more sane a long time ago. Human blood, much more safe, much better effects however temporary."

It was true, Magnus had indeed over the years drank vampire blood from his fallen foes. He had heard rumors, stories of it vastly increasing your strength. Well, it did in-fact help him. But, no one ever told him the bad effects some blood carried. He had once faced a opponent much like him with psychic abilites, once the other vampire fell he began to drink it's blood, hoping to further his own abilities. Then, something went wrong, a rage overcame him. He saw red and nothing else, tearing down anything in front of him, humans, vampires, trees, anything that he thought stood in his way. Ever since the rage overtook him at random, over the years he had learned to be able to control it partially, use it to his advantage. In rare occasions he could fully control it, using it to land a killing blow or escape from situations that would otherwise be the end of him.

Mithias was surprised to hear Magnus' voice outside the cave. He thought he had been left buried behind this rock to wait alone for some indeterminate time, if not forever. Instead, Magnus was... guarding him? His brow furrowed slightly as he put a hand against the rock, leaning against it lightly to listen. Mithias kept silent as Magnus covered SOLDIER, heart removal, and the dangers of drinking from vampires. It was almost a parental lecture. How strange a concept that the savage and brutal renegade, Magnus, could show sincere concern for him. It was completely unexpected. It was almost... touching.

Mithias sighed heavily at the mention of blood. The thirst was upon him like a dull ache. There was no satisfying it behind his boulder. He closed his eyes and pressed both hands against the stone, longing to be free, wanting to reach through it, but he didn't try to move it, yet. "Magnus." He spoke softly, knowing he could be heard. "We cannot allow all vampires to be destroyed." On that, at least, they agreed. "I will fight against SOLDIER, if that has become their true intent." Mithias rested a moment. He sounded tired. "Every time we lose an elder, our species weakens. It was never my wish to kill you, only to maintain balance. The mercy you have shown me, speaks volumes to your sincerity. I will consider your words and investigate, but I need you to cease your slaughter of innocents." He continued, "I cannot swear my allegiance to you, for it belongs to another, to whom it is long overdue..." Mithias pressed his forehead against the stone, reaching out with his mind to search for any other vampires nearby. He sensed nothing. "I will keep my heart within me, but I will heed your warning about drinking vampire blood." Damnit. Now he was thirsty again.

"Don't let yourself get cornered, Magnus."

Magnus shook his head. "If I killed all the humans, I nor any other vampire could sustain ourselves. This was not my intention, rather to enslave them, moreso protect them from more savage vampires. Sure, they would be captured to whatever they are told and to be fed upon, but if my plan success and SOLDIER falls, the human was would be drawn to extinction. I do not wish for all human's to die, only those who serve SOLDIER. If it means killing a few innocent people to save the majority, it doesn't matter to me. Other vampires hate humans, they see them as nothing more than a moving, living food source. Me, without humans there cannot be vampires." Magnus told him. "Then there is SOLDIER, who seeks nothing more than to exterminate vampires and create super-soldiers from our DNA to do whatever they are instructed to do in order to rule over the humans. That...is what happend to one of my closest friends. The only human to ever like and understand me...they turned her into a monster. Somewhere inbetween a human and a machine, though, I just know she would remember me given time.. This is one reason I do what I am doing, though, it was only recently I found out about her."

"There are others like me, human and vampires alike, some in SOLDIER some on there own. When one outpost falls we will rise and come together. We WILL destroy SOLDIER." He said, fists clenched at his sides. Perhaps if he could win him over he wouldn't need to bargain with SOLDIER to get what he wanted...maybe..

Gabriel looks down on the tear, and his eyes seem to glow up. He grins, his pointed teeth dripping with unidentified blood. "You wish to be healed? Very well then, you shall be reborn this day!" As Gabriel says this, five giant burning crucifixes burst from the ground around him, the flames filling the air. The sky seems to turn red, as if painted by the floating embers. Gabriel extends both hands, and in each there is a large round hole, dripping with blood. Then, Gabriel reaches forward, and grabs Martin's head from each side, lights beginning to dance before his eyes. The fire shoots into the sky, a bonfire a hundred miles high as the flames appear before Martin's mind's eye.
Gabriel reaches into Martin's mind, his hands made of fire and blood. Within he burns it, purifying that which was once corrupted by feebleness. Screams echo in the infinite blackness. Nothing is real in this moment, besides Gabriel and the flaming cross behind him, and Martin realizes it is he himself that is screaming. His eyes have been burnt out of his skull by the brilliance, and his ears have gone deaf, and yet the terrible beauty of the scene is burnt into his very soul. The screaming halts, as the flames rush through mind and soul, burning away the disease that had taken a hold on Martin's thoughts. Gabriel laughs, as an image is engraved into Martin's very mind, a mark that could never be forgotten, a symbol that only few in the world would recognize.
As Martin awakens from delirium, the world is clear and bright. There are no flames but those in Gabriel's eyes, as he stands before Martin. There is no blood, and no marks, as if it had all been a horrifying illusion, and yet something tells him that it had all been real. "You see the world with clear eyes. Behold it's beauty." Every detail is sharpened by Martin's vampiric eyes, and not only his eyes, but his thoughts are crystal clear. Nothing is blurred and wiped out, or covered in the lies of delusion. "Remember forever that image, young one." With this, Gabriel reaches foreward, his finger burning, as he burns out both of Martin's eyes. Even without sight, the mark can clearly be felt, burnt onto his face, carved there by the Vampire God. The mark that all Gabriel's children bore, throughout the ages. The mark of the wanderer, to be hated and loved, blessed and cursed at once, the mark of one with true eternal life and strength.
Martin wore the Mark of Cain.

For a moment martin felt all thoughts, emotions and memories drain away from him. He felt alone and empty in an endless thick sea of nothing. Above him, far away he saw a light, he didn't know how, but he knew that was his humanity. A last chance to end it all here, and wake up.
He felt a calling, he felt Gabriel's eyes pierce trough the veil of nothing and call out to him. But it wasn't up, it was further down.
Martin didn't hesitate, this is what he wanted, this clarity was all he desired. He let himself sink deeper. He took his last mortal breath.
All his senses stopped their flow of input. But he knew them nonetheless. His sight was gone, but he could see clearly. More clear than ever.
Martin understood now, he wasn't insane, he could see more of reality than he should have. His mortal mind couldn't comprehend. But now...
The mark tethered him to reality, to his new father, to his first night: truly alive.
A hoarse whisper came out of his mouth as he spoke the first coherent thoughts that came to mind.
“The most merciful thing in the world... is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents.”

Martin knew of every tree around him, felt the presence of every creature that lurked in their safety, understood the fear in their simple little minds better than they ever could.
With his first vampiric breath he felt the wind around him shift, as if the world breathed with him. The long awaited feeling of relief flowed trough him. Along with gratitude.
"Thank you,Sire... What happens now?"

"Jack has arrived. No doubt he wishes to kill me. Furthermore, my other son and SOLDIER have disregarded my warning." Gabriel smiles at you, as he pats you on the head. "First, retrieve the Crimson Blade. It should be wielded by one worthy of it, such as yourself. Then, kill every human in Kilo Point. They shall learn that when I speak, man listens." With this ominous order, Gabriel seems to disappear in thin air, although there's a faint trickling of his presence left in this place. Presumably, he has something else to do.

Mithias blinked, filled with sudden realization. "Lambda..." he said. "They changed her against her will? No!" Mithias punched the rock and gritted his teeth. He didn't want to believe it, but everything Magnus was saying was making sense. SOLDIER did consist of a vast majority of humans, and Mithias knew no vampires served on the main council. Why would their goal not be to exterminate vampires from the world? His dream may have been a delusion all along. "Balance is impossible." He muttered. "Perhaps it IS time for the tides to change. Magnus, free me from this cave. I can get us closer to those in charge in SOLDIER. More innocent lives can be spared."
