The attack was sudden, and Arian[Fex] couldn't quite see what had hit him, but as he looked at the man in the strange suit, he was wondering what on earth this person was. It didn't look like any outfit humans usually wore, and for some reason, his entire body was covered.
"Is that thing even comfortable, I imagine it must be pretty tight down there?" Arian[Fex] said sarcastically while glancing at the strange person's groin area.
While moving closer to the mysterious figure, Arian[Fex] made sure not to make any sudden movements. The wounds on his forearms were already starting to heal, so they didn't bother him much anymore.
"Hey, I know you might just be trying to save this..." Arian[Fex] then looked at Tony[Peter] who was lying on the floor between them. "…Human, I guess. But I think you don't understand, I've tied him up for your and everybody else's safety. I suggest you go back home so we can forget any of this ever happened."
As he got closer Arian[Fex] started to notice something, or rather the absence of something.
'Where's his scent? I'm not smelling anything from him.' He thought.
Usually, humans and vampires had this aroma around them, everybody has a specific smell. It was what attracted humans around them. Although vampires could suppress this to some extent, they could never completely get rid of it, especially not in front of other vampires.
But for the first time he met a person who had no scent at all, because of this he couldn't identify this mysterious person or even guess his race, this made him a bit more careful around this suspicious person.
Archer[Quinn], on the other hand, had no clue of his suits side effect. While wearing the mask, he wasn't able to use his nose to its full capacity. The suit that blocked out the sun, was also blocking out his smell.
Archer[Quinn]'s mind was occupied with other things right now, he was trying to decide if he had to kill this person or not.
The question was; Had Tony[Peter] attacked this person to try and eat him, and did the person manage to defend himself, and also tie Tony[Peter] up with his Skill[ability]? Or had nothing happened yet, and had this person randomly attacked Tony[Peter] and then tied him up.
For some reason Tony[Peter] was very calm right now, this was not what Archer[Quinn] had been expecting, because before he lost all sense of control over Tony[Peter] through their bond.
Archer[Quinn]'s identity was still a secret, at least for now. His number one priority was getting Tony[Peter] out of the situation and back to their dorm room. He could deal with any other issues later.
Archer[Quinn] had a feeling from the way Arian[Fex] was moving, that he was being cautious. If Archer[Quinn] was going to make a dash for it to get Tony[Peter] out, the most likely outcome would be that a fight was going to break out. If that was the case, it would be best if Archer[Quinn] first found out his Skill[ability].
[Inspect]
[Name: Arian[Fex] Leonardo[Sanguinis]]
[Race: Vampire]
After seeing the information Archer[Quinn] froze for a bit, he had to re-read it twice just to make sure what he saw was correct. After what the blond vampire in the system had said he knew there had to be other vampires out there. But he never expected to see one in the same school as him.
Then a horrible thought ran through his mind, he remembered what the blond vampire in the system had told him, now that he was a vampire they would come after him and to be careful of them.
It was too soon, Archer[Quinn] didn't even know how strong he was compared to other vampires. If this new vampire wanted to take Tony[Peter] away then he could have him. Archer[Quinn] wanted to change things, but that wasn't going to be possible with him dead.
But when Archer[Quinn] tried to run away, something inside of him gave him a jolt, a force was pulling him towards Tony[Peter] and refusing to let him leave. At the same time, Tony[Peter] was feeling the same thing. Archer[Quinn] then fell down on one knee, breathing heavy.
"What is this?" Archer[Quinn] asked.
"It's your family bond, " the system explained. "The two of you are bonded by the magic of your blood. Similar to how Tony[Peter] can never do you, as his master, any harm, you can never desert him."
"What is this vampire family crap, " Archer[Quinn] said as he got up from the floor.
If he couldn't run away without Tony[Peter], then he only had one choice.
[Skill shadow cloak activated]
Right in front of Arian[Fex]'s eyes, his opponent had disappeared, and without giving off any smell, it was hard for him to locate this person. "So it looks like you're going to try and fight me. Well, you made the wrong decision!"
Suddenly, a tingling feeling he felt in his neck alerted him that something was coming.
A claw like blood mark randomly came out from his right side, and behind it, several more followed. However, before the attack left Archer[Quinn]'s hands, Arian[Fex] was able to retaliate.
"Blood barrier." Swiping his hands upward, a thin red barrier was formed. As each swipe hit the barrier, it would shake a little but was completely unaffected by the attack.
But seeing Archer[Quinn]'s attack made Arian[Fex] realise something. The attack produced just now was a blood swipe, it was the same basic skill all vampires were required to learn.
"Wait you're a vampire, we're on the same side, stop!" Arian[Fex] shouted.
Even though Archer[Quinn] could hear Arian[Fex]'s words, he chose to ignore them over the systems, it was quite possible this whole thing was an act.
[Stun[Daze]]
[Stun[Daze] skill failed]
Archer[Quinn] was hoping the daze skill would go through allowing him to flash step behind his opponent and perform a hammer strike, but it had failed making him change plans.
Putting both of his hands together, Archer[Quinn] formed a larger blood swipe throwing out a single large attack.
"Look, if this ghoul belongs to your family maybe I can help you, we can figure out something together." Seeing the red line of attack, Arian[Fex] had no choice. He too placed both hands together and let out a blood swipe of his own.
Only his was significantly larger than Archer[Quinn]'s. As the two blood swipes collided, Arian[Fex]'s consumed Archer[Quinn]'s and carried on going forward, the only thing Archer[Quinn] could do, was use his flash step to avoid the attack.
Archer[Quinn] then activated his boots, if his Blood swipe wasn't strong enough then he would need to rely on his speed, he went in close and threw out a fist performing Blood spray at the same time. However, each attack was deflected by Arian[Fex].
After seeing Archer[Quinn] struggling in hand to hand combat, Arian[Fex] found everything quite strange. "Does he not even know the basic martial arts?" It was something all vampires were required to learn, but Archer[Quinn] was throwing his punches out quite randomly, but then he also knew some advance skills such as the flash step. So he couldn't be a beginner.
"If you keep going like this, you'll die before giving me a chance to help you, " Arian[Fex] said, with urgency in his voice.
Archer[Quinn] had used up a lot of his HP, just trying to hit Arian[Fex] even once, but nothing seemed to be working.
"Just get out of here!" Tony[Peter] shouted. "Leave me, there's no point in both of us dying."
Once again, Arian[Fex] was confused, but this time by the ghoul. If they belonged to the same family, the blood bond wouldn't allow one to be deserted in time of need.
With nothing working, Archer[Quinn] only had one choice. He threw out a blood swipe and caught it using his shadow control, with the scythe being held in his hands and his suit of armour and mask on, he truly looked like a grim reaper.
"Is that the shadow Skill[ability], but that's been lost for years!" Arian[Fex] said. "Just who is this guy?"
Suddenly, a beep was heard coming from all three of their watches. As they looked down, they noticed the time was 9:45. It was the fifteen-minute warning sound telling them curfew time was coming.
