2 weeks after the event in the Lost Forest Liz was long gone and now our story takes us somewhere in Nevada; A large vehicle was parked off the side of the road and bodies of zombies were being dropped like flies. As the last dead met its end, a group of survivors began to gather around each other.

"Thanks miss. We wouldn't have survived without you."

"Well I was just in the neighborhood haha but please, just call me Liz"

Why is there so many gathering? Usually there would be a dozen at most, but this group was doubled that and the direction they were walking... Allister? No there could be lots of reasons why.. The nearby City? Villages? But who is leading them?

Guns were heard being reloaded and pointed towards Liz

"Look. You're a pretty girl and I know you helped us, but you can do more by giving up that car."

"What my friend is trying to say is that we have a destination to get to and your car can really help."

" Don't sugar coat it! we'll let you live but only if you entertain us as well"

"Wow. What an offer... Ok. I thought you actually wanted to live so.. make sure those bullets count."

"What?"

--------------------------

While all that was happening , there was a boy inside a town hundred of miles away from Liz and he was busy arguing with a sales man in his own shop; the girl with him? Just annoyed by how long this had been going on for.

"You Geezer! These flame tags are for three usage each!

"But can you use them for offensive purposes?"

"No!! Travelers can use them for campfires or even at home for the winter or uhh.. or cooking!"

"Boy, we have electricity here. Besides I already have tags like those and you can use them 5 times each"

"Bull shit! Who sold you those?"

"Merchants from the city, but if you got any formulas for sell..?"

"No way, these babies are what make me special and you wouldn't have enough magical powers to make the formulas active! Alright look, I have some lightning tags that can immobilize people?"

Allister was right, these people don't care about who or what we are... Monsters.

The girl was in a daze thinking about how they first arrived to this town, how there were still people thriving. All they had to do for entry was pay a fee and turn in their weapons but that's not all, she thought about the conversation she had with the boy just one week prior.

---

Kat saw strange symbols with the name of towns and cities on on a piece a paper, she didn't understand at all so he explained what a map was.

He danced happily while flaunting tags around

A voice rang through Allister's head telling him he was harsh, which he responded back with "Shut up" but there was no way the girl would know that.

---

If only my people can stop being afraid... One day I'll show them this would isn't all that bad

"Hey Kat, you daydreaming? We got our money so lets bounce."

"Oh. What about those flame things?"

"I sold them. For a very cheap price.. lets just go! We need to hit the town hall"

Allister walked out the shop with tears and his head hanging down but as time passed, the two eventually made their way to a large building with people coming and going

"Yea, I would like some information on these towns and just the general area please"

"Well hordes of zombies have been marching through many villages down south and even across the west coast. We just got information that they're moving north but other than that? You can base the map you have off of ours to help avoid the towns that are blacklisted"

"Well what's wrong with this village? It has a question mark"

"Hold on, let me get the file"

As the receptionist left, Allister stared off into the distance as if the walls around him didn't exist; focusing on the direction they had came from.

"She's right.. they're moving in groups but not towards us though"

"You can see them?"

"No, more like feel them. That sounded gross actually, I meant that I can sense them, their emptiness, and the strong magic guiding them"

"Alright! the town you asked about.. it seems a fog appeared just a few days ago and we lost connections with them. Word of this phenomenon has already been told to the city so they should be sending personal."

"A fog?"

"Yup, folks were still going but they either ended up back where they entered or disappeared. We were told to avoid it for now"

"Kat.."

"I'm getting a bad feeling about this"

"It might be nothing but if my suspicion is right, it could be something."

"I don't know.. they're already sending help"

"Alright. Find us a place to sleep and buy some new clothes while you're at it. Please"

"No, you could use my help!"

"Don't worry, I don't plan on getting involved. Besides, you know I can't die so.. just stay here."

"But"

"I'll be in and out! If you're that worried, then look for me if I'm not back by morning"

----------------------

A few hours later, Liz was arguing outside the very town hall over parking violations"

"Listen here! Hardly anyone even drives a car! So why do you care where I park? I mean, this is an apocalyptic world for crying out loud"

"Were civilized people here! We also get visitors and even they follow our rules"

"I'm only going to be a minute! I just have a few questions for one of the receptionist or anyone who works in there"

"Well I'm one of them. How can i help you?"

"Oh, nice! I'm looking for a man.. well he might be a teen or a kid actually... Brown curly hair, wore this very same jacket?"

"I did see a guy like that. He and some wolf-kin were wearing that actually. They asked about a town that's deemed unsafe and he left anyways"

"A wolf-kin? But he shouldn't have.."

She began picking up a scent she recognized and the direction she looked towards to revealed a girl carrying clothes. Liz's eyes began to glow many colors; she wasn't moving a muscle even with the receptionist telling her how that was the girl she had just mentioned earlier.

I see. That doofus.

"Hey lady, you know where a vampire can buy blood?"

"Oh! I thought that's what you were! I didn't want to assume, I mean the Last Frontiers queen is a vampire and she's amazing!!"

"Do you have a place or not?"

"Down the street we have a magic market.. Hey wait! I wasn't done talking!"

-------------------

Deep in the forest, Allister was staring down at the village from a hill. To be more specific, he was looking at a fog moving in a circular motion that was covering that very village.

"So this is the fog... can you feel it?"

I do. This isn't normal magic.. Black magic? You think its her?

"It's been years. She should be long gone"

Her cult then?

"Maybe. Last I heard about them, they had made contact with Damien and then vanished.. That doesn't solve the problem in front of us though"

If you go down there, that magic will make you go crazy.

"Yea but thankfully I have you. Just knock me back into reality or take my place if you have to"

Is that why you didn't want Katherine to come?

"She's still young and I can't risk her animal nature to go wild"

That's adorable

"You're one to talk! If it wasn't for you recommending it, then I wouldn't have thought about the fact that this fog could be a trap. Besides, who was the one that spared her brother and people? For a demon you can be pretty soft"

Shut up, I knew she would be sad.

"Exactly my point, now lets go and break this magic circle"

You found it?

"Obviously its in the center!"

Why do I even try with you?

Walking through the village, he noticed the emptiness; checking the houses would be pointless for the fact that the residents weren't there was tastelessly obvious.

"Hey we're at its center but I don't see it, just a fountain with no running water"

Silence was all Allister heard from within. He felt a killing intent approaching which he responded by quickly turning, resulting in a combat knife piercing his hand and the wielder? An elderly man.

"Easy there gramps. You almost killed me before even wondering if I was a threat! Hey other me, a warning would have been nice!!"

"You really are a monster!"

"Harsh. To think I was actually worried about you guys! I didn't sense any zombies, so I figured all of you just went crazy"

"Hit him!! Now!"

No one was around but the fog, he couldn't see a thing nor sense anyone either. A stinging sensation struck him in the back which he realized was a dart.

"What the F?"

"Sweat dreams~"

"Hold on a second gramps. Hey other me, you mad or something? You've been quiet."

"That demon won't help you now. Don't worry, everything will make sense soon."

"Can you talk a little slower?"

Dam, I thought I was immune.. Oh. they're using black magic, not poison..

Allister started to loose consciousness but what felt like seconds to him was actually hours and as time past he began to hear voices talking around him.

"Boss he's waking up."

"You may leave us"

"So.. you didn't lose your sanity. Then that Fog?"

"It helped us to realize the truth. The only way to live in this world.. is to first evolve"

"Brainwashing huh? So what now? You got me chained up and.. well will you look at that. You chopped off one of my legs?"

"It was those idiots. Don't worry, they're dead now and this guy will be next. The job was just to capture and not to harm you. This fog? That circle's formula was later changed to only effect your friend specifically"

"I'm pretty much immortal, you ok with dying too? Tell me who's in charge and I'll throw in a good word"

"Enough talk, she'll be coming for you soon"

"She will or you will?"

The old man turned to him showing a look blushing with lust and ecstasy.

"I guess the show is over. I can't hide anything from you, even if I tried! This is why I love you my dear Allister! I was so angry that they hurt you but don't worry. I'll take care of you and kill this man in honor of my beloved"

"Shit... Roxanne"

A knife was at his throat as he smiled so happily but before she cold make real contact while controlling the old man's body, a villager came running in yelling.

"Boss, we have an intruder! She destroyed the circle and now she's killing everyone! The fog is gone"

As he was talking, his neck was cleanly cut and eventually the old man's as well but one thing did cross his mind or rather hers before the end.

The daughter!

"Elizabeth?"

"Uncle!!"

Liz stepped in revealing blood on her clothes and her blade, she saw Allister and her Killing killing intent disappeared from an angry girl to that of a happy little kid.

"Why are you here? And you killed the villagers?!"

"I came to save you, duh! There was no saving them.. They were gone. I saw the outcome, now use this blood so you can regenerate."

"No! I hate blood! I rather just wait to grow up! I could have sworn I told you to stop using that power all the time, it weakens you."

"Don't worry. I didn't trigger it and the blood isn't just for you, It's for him and... I smell a mut"

"Stay away from him you blood sucker!!"

Behind Liz was Kat but not in her human form, she was a complete wolf and the two positioned each other as an all brawl was about to commence.

" You got a lot of nerves talking to me like that kid."

" Wait you two. Elizabeth, please release me from these chains"

"Allister! your leg!"

"It'll heal in a few minutes, give me the blood"

"Who is this vampire lady?"

"Kat, this is Elizabeth... my niece and you young lady! She is one of us! can't you tell by the fact that I gave her my jacket and my favorite hat"

"If you say so."

"Elizabeth, cute name"

"Call me Liz. I hate being called by my full name"

"I hope you two can get along from now on haha"

"But uncle! why is she here? You're changing things just like my dad! I thought you and I were Los Vasquez Duo"

"I never agreed on that name and because of you everyone calls us that now!! Look.. you should know by now that no one's future is set in stone so stop relying on it to much and just go with the flow."

"Fine. Kat was it? When both parties come, don't resist and don't let your anger get the best of you."

"She's here?"

"Uncle, there's no point in running. Just stall her until the others get here"

"Others?"

"I'm sorry.. you be meeting Mabel soon"

As the three escaped the house which was used to imprison Allister, they were met by two individuals; A girl with long brown hair and heterochromic eyes as well as man with pure white hair and green eyes. Behind them was a few dozen zombies standing side by side, neither of them moved.

"So you are a alive. Roxanne."

"Yes dear, I'm just like you but my second colored eye is different! You see this upside cross? It doesn't disappear because I became one with my demon"

"Liz, the guy next to her.."

"Yup, just as my reports showed, He's a dead. A higher form though"

"Kat, get behind me."

"Don't make any sudden moves. You are all surrounded by our horde. Rubin deal with the daughter."

"With pleasure."

Rubin's arm began to combust into green flames as his skin melted off, revealing nothing but a thick and boney arm with spikes protruding from it; his fingers as sharp as knives.

"Uncle, I can deal with the dead around us. That bone head will probably follow me so lets stick with the plan please"

Liz ran so fast it almost looked like she vanished and eventually the man named Rubin followed suit as he laughed with the pleasure of going after what he considered to be prey. Allister just stood there letting out a big sigh.

"How did you find me Roxanne? How did you end up like me? I mean don't get me wrong. We don't want to be fused because two heads are always better than one. Oh wait, I don't have two heads but you know what I mean"

"Once I capture you, we can chat more. I will tell you one thing, it was thanks to that girl behind you! Her people told us, after we turned them into our dead army of course"

"My people.. You didn't!!"

-------------------------------

Zombies were being slaughtered left and right, Liz took a 180 degree turn and her silver blade made contact with Rubin's hand. The only sound around them was that of weapons clashing with one another until the two wielding them took a large leap backwards.

"Try all you want blood sucker, your blade won't pierce me. It won't even cut me!"

"Truth is, I was conducting an experiment. To see if the strength and sharpness of your bone would break my blade. Seems we're evenly matched"

"You mocking my power?"

"Well I'm sure the others like you are stronger, so this fight doesn't necessarily confirm one of the hypothesis that I have. So.. experiment number 2"

Liz pushed forward with the strength of her legs and gave the strongest punch she could at the moment towards Rubin's forehead. He couldn't respond to her speed but they both knew damage was inflicted

"Ouch"

"Hurt your hand?"

"What? No. I just know you have a crack to your skull now, you couldn't feel it?"

So I guess a vampire's strength can do damage, but not just any one can. I mean, I carry my mom and dad's blood in me but it didn't make it any easier.. but this guy isn't so tough, Uncle is stronger than me in some sense so I'm glad.

"Don't move to much or that crack will get worse. It's not your fault, I'm the one to blame here"

"What?"

"I'm just to strong for you, that's all. Your life was over the moment you faced me as an opponent. Time for my third experiment! I want to see if you can be killed by your own kind"

She began putting her silver blade away while unsheathing the pure white one she had on her hip. Rubin's eyes opened wide at what he saw in her hand which caused him to lunge at her. From his point of view, everything began spinning in different direction. It was only then that he realized his head was no longer attached to his body; eventually making impact with the ground.

"Now your head has many cracks. R-I-P Robert"

"It's Rubin and I don't die so easily you red eye witch"

"Interesting, your body doesn't move. So it's your brain that's alive.. Just like the rest of you that don't talk."

She walked up to his head but an intruder came between the two; A girl with the same pure white hair and eyes which caused Liz to smirk

"Ericka, why are you here?"

"Because you're an idiot. I'll deal with the girl"

"So you were watching from afar. I wondered what became of you.."

"You know me Vampire?"

"In a sense. It's still to soon for us though but I must go. They're here."

-------------------

"Kat don't!"

"Let me go!! I'll kill her"

"That's what she wants! She could be lying, she usually does! You're people aren't so easy to be trapped or even get a jump on."

"As kind as ever, even after all these years my dear"

"Sorry Roxanne. I wont be going with you"

"I love when you play hard to get"

Electricity began to emit from her hand but she was interrupted when shots were fired from all directions. Roxanne hated when people got between her and this case was worse since it forced her to retreat. After seeing the zombies with her being killed one by one, vehicles began surrounding Allister and Kat as suits with guns pointed their weapons at them. One man walked up to them and laughed as he took of his helmet.

"Well if isn't Allister Vasquez. You are a very wanted man and the order is to bring you in by none other than the Queen of the First Frontier. Your fiancé."

"Kat.. don't resist."
