Hive Plots

Wagner nodded, “Yeah. That’s the tricky part.” The words brought back a memory, the first attempt he ever made on Azazel’s life. He shook his head, that had been a spectacular failure. “Maybe we could turn his boss against him… he was already displeased from what Voltaire said before.” Gears mused aloud, though he wasn’t exactly sure how to do that, trying to think as well. “Yeah. I can keep him thinking he has me whipped until we figure something out.” Wagner nodded. He didn’t dare defy Azazel himself as this point so it wouldn’t be hard to play the … Continue reading Hive Plots

Send in the siren.

After Wagner was brought into the hive link, it truly changed him. He was no longer the same vampire anymore, he could actually feel feelings. Such emotions once lost on him were now bursting through him. He never understood such things before, but now it flooded him, overwhelmed him. He never felt this way before, it was exhilarating and terrifying all at once. Wagner understood the two fears, understood how he had neglected Gears and just how great Gears truly was. He had been so blinded and obsessed with capturing bex, that he didn’t see Gears protentional at all. However … Continue reading Send in the siren.

An Escape

Twenty-four stared in disbelief at what he had done. Dr. Wagner lay unmoving on the floor of his office, the handle of a scalpel protruding from the vampire’s right eye. It had happened in a matter of seconds when Wagner let his guard down and looked away from the surgical tools on his desk. Twenty-Four had resigned himself to being a prisoner of the lab for centuries, but this day he’d had enough of the torment, lashing out in retaliation. He stood panting hard, unsure what to do now and knowing he had a limited time before the guards showed up when Wagner didn’t make his usual rounds… Continue reading An Escape

A promise to return.

It been a few days since Virus came to the manor, bex fretted abit. Remember his talk with Stahs about virus. “Virus is a dangerous being, though he is also lonely and likely scared. I use to check in on him regularly though I have slacked off in that. I really do need to see him again. Hopefully i can regain his trust.” Stahs explains. Bex looked thoughtful “Why is he so skittish?” Stahs shrugs “from what i know hes from a lab, i haven’t gotten much out of him. I guess he was some experiment, but i have been … Continue reading A promise to return.

First encounter

It had been a while since stahs visited, virus waited in the abandoned warehouse for him to come by. He stared out the poorly boarded window. Waiting, wondering why he wasn’t visiting. He use to regularly visit twice a week, to once a week, to every other week and then nothing. He wasn’t sure if stahs had moved on or was dead. He thought maybe he should visit him for once. Stahs had always invited him to the manor, just he never took the offer. He was unsure of the vampire, but after a while of getting to know him … Continue reading First encounter

Loss of Self

1-3 and the others of the -3 series were different than those that came before, he was very much aware of that. He was also aware that the lab was aware of that fact as well. The doctor with the dark-rimmed eyes barely left him alone it seemed, constantly in and out of his cell to run various tests or having him pulled out and put into simulations. 1-3 had shown a natural command of a wide variety of magic, and that fascinated the doctor, much to 1-3’s masked annoyance. While he wanted to burn the vampire into ash, he knew there were bigger targets. He’d overheard the doctor yelling at the guards and interns to prepare for a visit from the doctor’s boss, and seen the doctor rushing about making certain everyone and everything was in its designated place.
