Hunter: Part 3
Nobody moved, the bunker was silent.
A shadow appeared on the door, it was shaped like a person but they knew it couldn’t be some lost hiker. Mack couldn’t take the suspense, he went running out the door.
A big thump was heard just as Mack ran out, Dean followed behind to make sure he was okay. Mack was always running into danger blind which made him an incompetent hunter. It annoyed Dean to the fullest.
“Mack?”
Dean cautiously checked the right side of the bunker and saw Mack being held by his neck by a stranger.
“Put him down!”
“I heard you been looking for me”
“Who are you?”
“You we’re looking for Cassius so-“
“Your not Cassius”
“No, I’m Cain… his brother”
Dean’s face hardened with rage, he started shooting without thinking into Cain’s chest.
Tears fell from his face as he started to relive the death of his parents. Luckily for Mack none of the bullets hit him.
Dean kept shooting until his gun was empty even then he kept pressing the trigger. Unfortunately for Dean, silver bullets can’t kill Cain. Maybe if it was ‘your everyday vampire’ but Cain’s bloodline was different it required a lot more to kill him unless he wanted to fight him toe to toe.
Cain sighed.
“Look I don’t know why you hate my brother I mean I can bet there are a thousand reasons why. He was pretty shitty but he’s dead I killed him… silver bullets aren’t going to kill me.”
“What about wood bullets drenched in vervain?”
“Yea.. no”
Dean just stood there staring at Cain. He was so emotionally disabled that he couldn’t even comprehend what was going on around him. Cain put Mack down gently.
“You okay?”
“Y-yes”
Cain tried to walk over to Dean but Dean moved back; thinking Cain might try something.
Rose, Davina, Jack, and Blake finally came out to see what was going on. They all saw the rage on Dean’s face. Rose ran over to Dean and grabbed his hand.
“Are you okay?”
Dean didn’t respond, he just looked at Rose, he looked broken.
“What the hell did you do to him?” Shouted Rose
“Relax, his issue is with my brother… who is dead by the way”
“What do you want?” Asked Jack
“I heard he was looking for me so I decided to come to him instead.”
“You’re a vampire, we kill vampires. Mighty brave to show up here” said Blake
“I’m not afraid of you. I’m not your enemy I protect humans”
“I’m sorry you do what?”
“Protect humans. I look after one; his name is Sam.”
“Like you raise him?” Asked Davina
“Yea, his family was slaughtered by mine, so now I raise Sam, Me and my girlfriend.”
“And your girlfriend is…?”
“Human yes.”
They all looked in shock. Dean finally snapped out of it and rejoined the conversation.
“Yea, you are one of those vampires with feelings”
Cain nodded.
“That has to be bull shit right?” Asked Blake
“Weirdly not”
“You believe him?”
“A little”
“Do you trust him?”
“Of course not”
“So let’s kill him!”
Before Dean could say anything, Blake charged at Cain with a knife in hand and stabbed him. Cain looked at the knife and rolled his eyes. He pulled it out of his chest.
“Come on my girlfriend just bought me this shirt”
Blake gasped.
“Yea tried that with bullets didn’t you hear all the shooting I just did.”
“Oh right”
Mack laughed as he pulled out a cigarette and began to light it.
“I say we keep him… I like him”
“Keep him? He’s not our new pet, besides he was just holding you up by your neck!”
“Yes but that was the past plus he could be useful”
“For what? Hunting?”
“Duh”
Mack offered Cain a cigarette, but Cain declined.
Davina walked up to Rose and began whispering in her ear.
“We should keep the vampire around like we wanna make friends then kill it after we found out how to”
Rose nodded.
“I say we keep him,” said Davina
“Have you been smoking one of Mack’s homemade cigarettes?” Asked Blake aggressively
“Maybe she thinks she’s going to have a vampire romance,” said Jack
Jack and Blake started laughing.
Cain kept trying to interject but kept missing the timing.
Davina didn’t encourage them; she stood by what she said.
“Yea we should keep him, he could help us with other monsters.” Said Rose
Jack and Blake immediately stopped laughing.
Dean was shocked by Rose agreeing with Davina. Dean trusted Rose’s judgment; assuming it had something to do with their attraction for each other.
Dean nodded.
“Okay Cain, you stay but don’t try anything or I promise you I’ll search the whole planet to figure out how to kill you”
“No, I can't permanently stay. I got things to do at home.”
“Yea yea yea we know a human girlfriend and human child to get back to… weird shit”
Lily got up for breakfast as she knew it was pretty the same thing; eggs and toast. She yawned and stretched and headed straight to the kitchen. The messy kitchen covered in grease smelt a little different today. It smelled funny of the weird kind. She opened the fridge to get orange juice but once she closed it she saw an unfamiliar face.
“Hi”
“Hi… who are you?”
“Oh I’m Cain”
“Okay I’m Lily”
“Do you mind?”
Cain seemed confused for a minute then realized what she meant.
“Sorry standing in your way… right of course”
Lily brushed past Cain to grab one of the plastic cups on the table. Dean walked in already wearing outside clothes.
“Ready for battle already?” Mocked Cain
“Did you even sleep?”
“Vampires don’t sleep”
Lily spit out all of the juice, it splattered all over the floor and wall.
“Vampire!”
“Yea Lily sorry forget to mention I’m a vampire”
“That isn’t something you forget”
Cain smiled and left the room.
Before Dean could reassure Lily that Cain wasn’t a threat the alarm went off again.
“This is why I get dressed early”
Dean rushed to the main room readying his gun.
“Blake, are the cameras working yet? I don’t want any more surprises. The next one might not be friendly.”
“They are working really…. badly”
“That’s helpful. What does it look like?”
“Mmmm.. I don’t know can’t tell it’s fuzzy”
“Werewolves,” said Cain
“How do you know?”
“I don’t know we are like natural enemies,” Cain said sarcastically
“Right”
“Too many of them to fight”
“How many?”
“I don’t know”
“Give an estimate!”
“Like maybe 50 or more”
“50!”
Suddenly, a banging noise comes from the bunker door.
“They’re going to get in here, what's the plan?”
“Fuck!”
