Here we go, guys, the Blade 2 movie has begun. Blade will rescue a friend of his. After that, a certain tigress will finally make her appearance. She will also reveal to Blade that a threat to humans and vampires alike is out for revenge, forcing Blade to ally with the monsters that he has sworn to kill. At the end, Blade will gain a new ally and love interest. Anyway, back to the story, guys.
Forget what you think you know, vampires exist. My name is Blade. I was born half humanoid raccoon, half vampire. They call me the Daywalker. I have all their strengths and none of their weaknesses and while I have the bloodthirst, my other half overcomes the need to drink as much blood as a normal vampire. 2 years ago I met a man who shared my view of Justice: Frank Castle aka the Punisher. He and I allied to battle a common enemy and I gave him the weapons to hunt with: silver, garlic and even sunlight. 2 years ago he was attacked and bitten by me. After I seemingly avenged the man I began to see as a friend, Vampires took him and turned him into the thing I hate most. I should have finished him off, now I'm hunting him. I will find my friend, and nothing will stand in my way.
In Prague
Five vampires were running for their lives as Blade was chasing after them. Blade had finally tracked down the Vampires who took Frank 2 years ago and he was determined to rescue his friend or kill him if he was turned. "Daywalker's here! Stop him!" One of the vampires said as 2 more vampire came out but Blade used his gaive to ash them.
Blade then jumped up and ran on the ceiling as 2 of the vampires stopped. "Where is he?" One of them asked before Blade jumped down and ashed them both with his sword.
The other 3 vampires got to the fire escape and 2 of them slide down the ladder. When they got down, they got on their motorcycles and tried to go through the only road that would lead them away from the building but it was blocked by a car. The 3rd vampire fell off the ladder and onto the ground because he wasn't wearing gloves to protect his hands. When he got up, he tried to run but Blade caught up with them and ashed him with his glaive. He then saw the ones on motorcycles ride towards him threw his glaive at them, making them separate. Blade then jumped out of the way of the red motorcycle and kicked the vampire off of it. The second one tried to ran over Blade but he back-flipped into the air and cut the vampire's head off with his sword.
Blade then walked up to the last vampire, who coward in fear. "No. No. I don't know where they keep him." He said as Blade grabbed his helmet.
"Take me to him now." Blade said.
"Please. I don't know." He said before Blade shoved his head into the moving motorcycle wheel. "He shot himself and then turned! We just kept him alive!" He said as Blade put his head closer to the wheel, making his helmet break. "I-i'll take you. I'll take you!" He said as he continued to scream.
At a halfway house
4 vàmpires were chilling out when they heard banging on the door. One of them went to check it out and put his ear to the door. "It's me, Rush, let me in." When the vampire unlocked the door, a blade came through the door and ashed him, making the other vampires get up.
When Blade kicked the door open, the Vampires pointed their guns at him but he moved Rush in front of the bullets, making them shoot him instead. Blade used his glaive to ash 2 of the Vampires but the other one ran towards the hallway. Blade moved forward and entered the hallway as the vampire went to attack him but he kicked Rush out of the way and quickly ashed the other vampire with one of his stakes. Blade heard someone speaking, put his stake away and got out his sword. One vampire jumped down but Blade raised his sword up and ashed him. 3 more came at Blade but called upon a wind slash, ashing all 3 of them.
Blade turned to Rush and cut his head off, ashing him as well before he went through the other room. He walked up to a vat of blood and got out a flashlight, seeing the face of the man he'd been tracking for 2 years.
"My friend, look at what they've done to you." Blade said as he walked to the lever and opened the vat, spilling out the blood and leaving Frank hanging on lines. Blade got out his sword and cut the lines, making Frank fall to the floor. Blade knelt down and turned Frank's face to him as he prepared to get one of his stakes out.
He then saw Frank open his eyes for a few seconds before he passed out again. Blade took his hand off the stake. "Let's go home." Blade said as he lifted Frank up and carried him over his shoulder to the car. Once Blade got Frank in the trunk, he quickly headed to his workshop. Once he got inside the workshop, he was approached by Natasha and Deckard.
"So Blade, any luck tonight?" Deckard asked.
"Yes. Cut the lights." Blade said.
Natasha turned off the guard lights as Blade opened the trunk, revealing Frank to the former shield agents. "You found him. Is he-" Natasha asked before Blade cut her off.
"Yes. Give me a hand." Blade said as they took Frank to a cell that was meant to keep things inside. "Did you bring what I asked?"
"Yeah. An accelerated retroviral detox, designed to make anyone grow cold turkey in one night." Natasha said before injecting Frank.
"Good. Let me have a second alone with him." Blade said.
"No problem, Raccoon." Deckard said as he left the room with his girlfriend.
Blade leaned down. "If there's anything left of you in there, Frank, listen to me. In the morning those blinds are going to open, whether your cured or not." He said before he left the room and locked the door.
"Is there anything else we can do to help you, Blade?" Natasha asked.
"I think he needs to be alone right now, Nat. Let's go to our room." Deckard said as he took Natasha to their room as blade went to his.
When Blade got into his room, he opened a little box and uncovered the very gun Frank had shot himself with to keep from becoming a creature of darkness. As Blade looked at the gun, he remembered the day Frank had told Blade to finish him off.
Flashback
"Listen to me, Blade. You're gonna have to finish me off." Frank said.
"No." Blade said.
"Give me that damn gun." Frank said with a little bit of force.
Blade walked up to Frank's weapons and got one of his guns. He then went back to Frank and handed the gun to him. "Now walk away, you stubborn son of a bitch." Frank said.
Blade walked out of the room as he heard the gunshot.
Flashback end
Morning had finally come and Blade was prepared to finish Frank off if he was not cured. Blade went to the cell and opened the blinds, letting the sunlight in. He saw that Frank was not on the stool and walked to a darkened wall where Frank had moved to. "How do you feel?"
Frank leaned out of the darkness, showing his usual face. "Like hammered shit." He said. Blade smirked at seeing that his friend was back to his old self.
Frank got up and walked to Blade. "It's nice to see you, Raccoon." He said before he noticed the raccoon skull on Blade's body armor. "You spayed that on your body armor?"
"I thought you had died when you shot yourself. I wanted to honor your memory by doing that." Blade explained.
"It actually suits you, Blade. Keep it on you." Frank said before Blade walked out of the cell and showed Frank to a sink. "How'd you find me?"
"I started out in Moscow then Romania. They kept moving you around." Blade answered.
"How long was I gone? Mouths?" Frank asked.
"Too long for my liking." Blade answered as he put his shades on. "You'll be pleased to know that Cain will not be hurting any innocent person ever again. I tracked him down and gave him your regards."
"Thank you, Blade. How about Stan's dying wish? Did you fulfill it?" Frank asked.
"No. I wasn't going to do that until I knew that you were cured. We made a deal to honor Stan's dying wish together and I wasn't going to do it without you. But in the event that I had to kill you, I would have honored Stan's dying wish without you." Blade said.
"Well, give me some time to process things and we'll deliver on our deal." Frank said.
Blade led Frank to a room where his body armor and weapons were. Frank then put them on while he told Blade what the vampires did to him. "They tortured me almost to death and then let me heal in that vat of blood so they could go at it again. Sorry sons of bitches got what they deserved in my opinion." He said as he finished. He then heard a scream of pleasure. "What was that?"
"Well, let's just say that I have 2 allies who just got finished having "fun." Blade said as he and Frank walked up to a room knocked. After a few minutes, the door opened.
"Frank? You're up." Natasha said as she hugged him.
Deckard walked up to them and put his hands around Natasha. "Nice to see you back on your feet, Soldier."
"Tell me something, you two. What are Fury's pet agents doing here?" Frank asked.
"We're not working for Fury anymore, Frank. Me and Deck are done with him and his secrets. After Orion was taken out of the picture, we decided to work with Blade to find you." Natasha said.
"We'll be heading back to the Avengers once we know everything's cool." Deckard said as they went to the workplace.
"So you finally saw what kind of man Fury is, huh?" Frank asked.
"Yes. When we found out that Fury was going to use Blade's blood for clones that he would have ordered to kill Blade after they were completed, we decided that we would leave Shield and become full-time Avengers once you were ok." Natasha said.
"About time." Frank said before the motion sensors went off.
"Motion sensors on 3, guys." Natasha said.
"Human?" Blade asked.
"Body temperature is 50, it must be vampires." Natasha said as Blade ran to his room and got his sword.
"Looks like they're using magnesium flares. Are these bullets silver?" Frank said as he got an AK-47 from the weapons Depot.
"Yeah." Natasha said as she got by the switch that would turn on the guard lights. Deckard ran in front of the guard lights as Blade got in front of them as well.
While they were preparing, two vampires that were dressed like ninjas with special goggles were jumping through the bars on the ceiling. They dropped down and Frank tried shooting at them but they dodged out of the way and one of them easily disarmed Frank, knocking him out as well. The other one who looked female saw Blade and got out her swords.
"Guard lights." Blade said, making Natasha turn on the lights. The vampire came at Blade and began to fight with him. Surprisingly they were evenly matched at swordsmanship. They blocked, dodged, and countered every move the other made. The other vampire unloaded the clip from Frank's gun and went to engage Blade but Deckard intercepted him and fought with the vampire. After a few minutes, Deckard kicked the vampire away as Blade kicked one of the vampire's swords out if her hands. Blade and the female vampire then got Into a stand off.
"Neyla, put your sword away." The other vampire told her, making her do just that. "Your friend shot first. We are here to deliver a message. We represent the ruling body of the vampire nation. They're offering you a truce and they want to meet with you." He said as he offered Blade an object, which he took.
"Natasha." Blade said, making her turn the lights off while the others turned on. Blade then saw that the female vampire had a purple tail. "Take off your masks." Blade said.
The male vampire took off his mask as the female took off hers. "My name is Asad. This is Neyla." He said as Neyla took off her mask, revealing her face to Blade.
"If you're wondering what I am, I'm an evolved animal like you. My mother was from the very same world you came from, but I was born in this world. My father will explain the rest later. You have been the vampires most feared enemy. But now there's something else loose on the streets, something far worse than you." Neyla said.
Later
A helicopter was flying to where the leader of the Vampires was located. While on the way, Neyla was staring at Blade. "Why are you staring at him? Curious?" Natasha asked.
"Yes. I've only heard about Blade from stories my father told me. He always said that Blade was a monster from every vampire's nightmares, but I've also heard that he is a hero from the humans that I've encountered. Frankly I'm a little confused about why he agreed to come along so easily." Neyla said.
"I only agreed to come along to find out if you're telling me the truth about something far worse than me." Blade said.
"And also if this is a trap, just remember that none of us are easy to kill." Deckard said.
"Believe it or not, I'm not like the other vampires. While I am a pureblood, I've always had a strong sense of Justice. I've never fed on innocent people, only the ones who were pure evil." Neyla said.
"Sounds like you're just like Blade and Punisher when it comes to justice. But you'll have to prove that through your actions instead of your words. That's how you'll earn our trust." Natasha said.
The helicopter landed at a base and they all entered the building. Neyla used the vampire needle device to open the doors. "You sure about this, Raccoon?" Frank asked.
"If I'm not, we'll kill them all." Blade said as he followed the Vampires to the next room. Blade gave Neyla the device that opened the door when she finished pushing the buttons and put it in the control panel, making the door open.
When it was full opened, they went inside and saw a vampire who looked centuries old, judging by his pale white skin. "Father." Neyla said, making the old Vampire turn around.
"Blade, this is overlord Eli Damaskinos." Asad said.
"Welcome, Daywalker." Damaskinos said, taking his daughter's hand. "It has been said be proud of your enemy and enjoy his success. In that regard, I should thank you." Damaskinos looked at Natasha, Deckard and Punisher. "Natasha Romanoff, Deckard Jones, and Frank Castle, also known as the Punisher. I trust your time with our greatest enemy has been benefiting."
"What could you possibly want to thank me for, Damaskinos?" Blade asked the ancient vampire.
"Eliminating Deacon Frost. You did us a favor." A man named Karel Kounen said as he held out his hand. Blade took his hand and saw the glyh.
"You're human." Blade said.
"I'm a lawyer." Kounen said.
"As you may know, vampirism is a horrible virus carried in the saliva of predators. In 72 hours it spreads through the human bloodstream, creating new parasitic origins." Damaskinos said.
"Like cancer"
"Cancer with a purpose." Damaskinos said.
"Unfortunately viruses evolve, too. We've encountered a new one. We dubbed it the Reaper Strain. And like any virus, it appears to have found a carrier." Kounen said as he show Blade and his allies a monitor. "There, Jared Nomak."
"Born a vampire like my daughter. But unlike the rest of us, however he feeds on Vampires as well as humans. And unlike you or my sweet Neyla, he doesn't have a "sense of justice." Damaskinos said.
"Which means, unlike us, he feeds on innocent people. And his Vampire victims don't die, they turn and become carriers." Neyla said.
"You've got to understand that these things are like crack addicts. They need to feed daily. Nomak's been up for 72 hours. By our estimates, there are already a dozen reapers. There'll be hundreds before the week is out. Thousands within a matter of mouths. Do the math." Asad said.
"And let me get this right, old man. You want me to hunt them for you?" Blade asked Damaskinos.
"When they are finished with us, who do you think they'll turn on next? Your precious humans. Not one of them will be left." Damaskinos told him.
"We spent 2 years training a small tactical unit: The Bloodpack. We want you to lead them." Kounen said.
"2 years?" Blade asked.
"They've been training to hunt you." Neyla said.
"And what about you?" Punisher asked.
"I've been training only to test Blade's fighting skills and swordsman skills. In case you didn't know, I despise guns. They're too loud and clumsy and they're for cowards, especially when they're used against innocent children. But I do use these retractable blades. They have a shooting mechanism and a laser pointer for good aiming." Neyla said.
One question, Damaskinos, how did Neyla get to this world if she's from the world I came from?" Blade asked.
"A few months after Frost left your old world, I followed him along with my men and explored the india of that world. Neyla's mother was already with child when I found her, struggling to survive a sickness for the sake of her child. I persuaded her to leave with me to this world and attempted to turn her and her child. Unfortunately, the vampire genes went into the child and her mother died in childbirth, but not before naming the child Neyla. She was born a vampire but unfortunately, she had inherited the weaknesses of our kind as well as our strengths. Since she was born, I've been raising her as her mother would have wanted.
"And I'll be forever grateful to you for all you've done for me, father." Neyla said as she hugged her father.
Later the next day at the workshop
"So what do you think, Daywalker?" Deckard asked.
"I don't trust any of them." Blade said.
"What do you really think?" Frank asked.
"They'll betray me the instant this Nomak and his reapers are dead." Blade answered.
"But you know the threat the reapers pose right now. Seems we don't have a choice. But tell me what you think about this Neyla." Natasha said.
"From what Damaskinos told me, her past is similar to mine, but I'm not convinced that he told me the whole truth. Neyla says she shares the same views on justice that me and Frank do, but won't believe that until she proves it through her actions instead of her words. But for now, I'll play their little game, but only because the reapers are a bigger threat to the humans." Blade said.
"Then why do I think that this is just another mess we're going to clean up and they're just shitting bricks because they're not on the top of the food chain?" Frank asked walking away.
"Blade, I'm really worried about Frank. We know that you consider him a friend, but I think we should watch him. Not every human can be cured of vampirism, you know that." Deckard said.
At nighttime
Blade was in his room drinking some blood until he saw Neyla come in. "They're ready whenever you are, Daywalker." Neyla said.
Blade walked down the work place where the team was waiting. "Blade, meet the Bloodpack: Lighthammer, Verlaine, Priest, Snowman, Chupa, and Reinhardt." (Anyone who's seen the movie should know what they look like)
Reinhardt looked at Blade and laughed at him. "So this is the legendary Daywalker we've been training to take out? A talking raccoon? He could be a Mutant for all we know. But then again, Daddy's little princess is a talking purple tigress." He said, making the team laugh.
"You doubt my abilities because my appearance? Then why don't you use that training you and your little friends have been doing for 2 years? You've been training for 2 years to kill me and now, here your chance." Blade said getting out one of his stakes, making the rest of the Bloodpack aim their weapons at him.
"Put your weapons away. If he wanted to kill you, he'd have already done it." Neyla ordered. After a few seconds, they did as ordered.
"As a bonus, I'll let you have the first shot." Blade said as Reinhardt looked at Neyla. "Why are you looking at her, you need permission? Or maybe a little provoking. I know just how to do that." Blade said as he spinned the stake in his hand, making Reinhardt look at it before Blade slapped him in the face. "What's wrong? Miss that? It's okay I can do it again." He said before he did the same thing twice, getting Reinhardt angry and making Frank and the former Shield agents smirk.
"Come on. Do you need a manual for this?" Blade asked, putting the stake in Reinhardt's hand. "Do it! Come on!" He said as the team egged Reinhardt into killing Blade. Reinhardt finally snapped and tried to put the stake through Blade's heart but Blade blocked him and twisted his arm, bringing him down and putting something in his head. "Now you have an explosive device stuck to the back of your head. Silver nitrate, rigged to go off if anyone of you tamper with it. The detonator will be with me at all times. And you, if you so much as look at me wrong or insult Neyla again." Blade twisted his arm further, making him yell in pain before Blade let him go.
"From now on, we work as a unit. You'll be taking orders from either me, Neyla, the master assassins, or the Punisher. Any questions?" Blade asked the team, who didn't say a word. "Good. Blade turned to Neyla. "If you want to catch the hunter, you start with the prey. We'll target all the night places where vampires congregate: Blood banks, safehouses, all of them. So, what's first?"
"The House of Pain." Neyla said.
Later outside the House of Pain
"Where's the entrance? Shouldn't there be a vampire glyph on the wall?" Blade asked Neyla.
"Because of you we've had to rethink our habits and tighten our security." Neyla said.
"Don't worry, Blade. Amadeus also put different kinds of vision in your shades. Watch this." Natasha said as she pushed a button that the normal eye wouldn't notice. The lenses glowed green, making the new vision reveal the glyph. "Very nice." Blade said as he pushed the button, making the green light turn off.
Frank was busy telling the Vampires about the weapons they would be using. "This hyper velocity stake gun spits out a silver stake at 6,000 feet per second." He said throwing the gun to Reinhardt. "Since you bloodsuckers don't like sunlight, we've modified the gun's entry light with UV filter. Pop it open, instent UV light. Filters on, no problem." He said.
"Yo Blade, check this out. It's got a syringe delivery system. The vials are filled with EDTA, very harmful to vampire blood. One punch with this, your target blows up like a balloon. The empty vials eject, automatic reload." Deckard said showing Blade the devices and giving them to him.
"Nice" Blade said as Punisher walked up to him.
"Let's go, Raccoon." He said.
"You won't pass for one of us, Castle. No way." Chupa said.
"Like I give a shit." Punisher said.
"No, he's right, Frank. Post up on the roof over there. Cover our backs." Blade said putting his hand on his friend's shoulder.
"So they're giving you orders now?"
"I take orders from no one. Once this is over, we're going to kill them if the reapers don't get to them first." Blade whispered.
"I'll be looking forward to that." Frank said as he bumped into Reinhardt.
"Better get control of your friend or we'll do it for you." He threatened.
Not liking the threat to his friend, Blade set the device on Reinhardt's head as a warning. "Keep pushing me, pureblood." Blade said.
(Insert I against I by massive attack)
Frank got on top of the roof and set up his sniper rifle as he saw Blade lead the team to the entrance, fighting the urge to kill the vampires and spare Blade and maybe the Neyla girl.
(End song here)
Chupa opened the entrance and they went inside, stopping at a door as Neyla turned to Blade. "You're about to enter our world. You will see thing that you and me despise, like feeding. But just remember why you're here."
"I haven't forgotten." Blade said as the door opened and they walked through it. They walked to another door and it opened, revealing something Blade despised: a nightclub. "I despise nightclubs." He said.
"Believe it or not I've never been a party girl myself." Neyla said as they walked into the club filled with perhaps hundreds of vampires and very loud Techno music. The team went to look for any sign of the reapers while Blade put secret cameras around the club. "Natasha, Deckard, do you two read me?" Blade asked the couple through communications.
In the bus they came in
Natasha and Deckard had set up the monitors when Blade contacted them. "Natasha, Deckard, are you reading me?"
"Loud and clear, Half-breed." Deckard answered.
"The place is a safehouse. Windows are painted black and there is one access door. There's 2 or 300 vampires are in here." Blade told them.
"Sounds like a party. Frank, did you get that? How are you doing up there?" Deckard asked Frank.
Frank was holding up something to protect himself from the rain. "Yeah I did, Jones. Just try to keep focused on the mission." He said.
Back in the club
"Look at them. Half of these bastards are not even purebloods" Priest said. "Why don't we just fucking kill everyone, just to make sure."
Reinhardt noticed that Blade was standing not to far from them. "God, it would be so easy." He said as he pointed his gun at Blade's heart.
Chupa noticed a laser on Reinhardt's heart and knew what that meant. He tapped him on the shoulder. "Looks like Daddy's little princess got you." He said.
Reinhardt looked at where the laser came from and saw Neyla pointing her stake shooter at him with a glare. "Daddy's little princess. Daddy's little princess." He mouthed as he walked away.
Neyla put her weapon away and saw that Blade was looking at her. He nodded and she nodded back and went to look around for any reapers.
Unknown to anyone, the reapers were right under them with Nomak. He sniffed the air and caught a special scent. "Ahhh, The Daywalker." He said, pleased, knowing that he could possibly get the vampire's most hated enemy to ally with him or kill him if he refused.
The team went separate ways in groups to look for any reapers. (I'm going to focus on Natasha, Deckard during the club fight scene. Anyone who's seen the movie knows what happens with the rest of them)
In the bus
Natasha and Deckard were looking at the monitors when they heard something moving on the roof. "Frank, I think some of them are on the roof. Frank? Castle?" Natasha said but received no response.
"He's probably gone for a wander, Nat. Let's go check it out." Deckard said. They went outside and looked around before seeing 4 reapers. It only took a second before the mindless reapers ran to them.
"Ready, babe?" Deckard asked.
"Let's kick some reaper ass." Natasha said as they began to fight with the reapers. Surprisingly the reapers were faster than the normal vampires and the silver bullets the couple fired at them were not working.
"They must be immune to silver and garlic. Let's try the UV lights." Natasha said as she kicked the reapers away and quickly went inside the bus to the controls. Deckard led the reapers to the front of the bus and when Natasha turned on the UV lights, the reapers began to ash like the normal vampires but they had become engulfed in blue fire instead of the normal color. After the reapers were dead, Deckard came into the bus.
"Looks like those mindless bloodsuckers are still vulnerable to UV light. We've got to tell the others." Deckard said.
"Listen to me, guys. If you're under attack, use your UV lights. They can't take the light." Natasha told the entire team through communications. The door suddenly opened, revealing Punisher.
Before the attack
Neyla went inside a room with curtains and searched the room for any sign of the reapers. After she set up another camera, she began to walk out of the room when she was suddenly grabbed by none other than Nomak himself. "Keep your mouth shut if you want to live a while longer." He said.
"Blade's going to kill you, Nomak." Neyla said.
"I don't think so. He and I have a mutual hatred of vampires. I think he'll be more than willing to become my ally against them. And if he doesn't, I won't hesitate to kill him as well." Nomak said.
After a few minutes, Blade came into the room, seeing Nomak holding Neyla hostage. "Nomak, I presume."
"Daywalker. So you're an animal, just like this pureblood scum. But unlike them, I do not doubt abilities based on appearances. Tell me what I am to you. Is the enemy of my enemy my friend… or my enemy?" Nomak asked, offering Blade an alliance.
Neyla quickly kicked Nomak below, making him let go as Blade kicked him away and sent him crashing into the nearby cabinet. Nomak quickly recovered and ran down the stairs. Neyla tried to run after him but Blade grabbed her shoulder. "Daylight." He told her before running after Nomak.
After some time, Blade made it to the end of the stairs into a dark room. Asad contacted him. "Blade, Priest is down and daylight's coming. Your on your own from here." He said.
Blade saw a bridge and walked across it to look for Nomak. He then stopped as Nomak jumped on the bridge from his hiding place. "You want me so bad, Blade? Here I am." He said as they began to walk towards each other. "Why kill me. You and I have the same enemy and we want the same thing." Nomak said as he jumped over Blade a kicked him In the back, making him stubble forward before he stopped himself. The 2 enemies went to each other and began to fight. Surprisingly, they were evenly matched in hand to hand combat. Blade kicked Nomak down and prepared his syringe punching device. Nomak quickly got back up and Blade jumped up and kicked him with his feet before the leader of the reapers tried to spin attack Blade but the hybrid punched Nomak multiple times before punching him back a few feet. Nomak's head looked like it was about to explode from the EDTA but after a few seconds, his head healed, making Nomak laugh before he ran to the Daywalker and leap-dived off the bridge with him. When they landed, Blade swap-kicked Nomak off of him, making him fly back and land into rubble Nomak got back up and started to pull a bar out from its place as Blade drew his sword. Nomak finally got the bar out with a big piece of concrete still on it. "We need the same thing, Blade." Nomak said before the hybrid attacked. Blade was in the defensive as Nomak cut his face. Blade blocked Nomak's weapon as the sunlight was burning Nomak's head. A ray of the sun reflected off of Blade's sword and onto Nomak's head before the reaper gave up and ran away.
Blade's wound healed and he headed back to the others, meeting Neyla. "What happened?" Neyla asked.
"Why didn't you tell me these things were immune to silver and garlic?" Blade asked.
"I didn't know."
"If you did, would you have told me?" Blade asked.
"Of course I would have. I've been completely honest with you and your friends ever since we met." Neyla said.
"Then can you explain to me why he didn't kill you?" Blade asked before he walked to the Bloodpack, who were holding down Priest as he was screaming in agony. "How long since he's been bitten?"
"About 20 minutes." Asad answered.
"His skin is fucking burning." Chupa said.
"He's already starting to change." Blade said.
Reinhardt couldn't take the screaming anymore. "Would someone just shut him the fuck up!?"
Chupa placed his gun on Priest's chest and put several bullets into him. But it didn't kill him as a scar began to form on his chin. The change was complete and his reaper month opened. Reinhardt threw a chair down. "Come on, man. Just put him out of his fucking misery." He told Snowman, who got out one of his katanas.
"Don't you get it? You can't finish him that way." Neyla said.
Snowman threw his sword to Reinhardt and he cut half of the now-turned reaper's head off. Blade walked up to him and put his foot on him. "Move." He said as grabbed Asad's gun and shot the top corner, letting the sunlight shine on the now-turned reaper and making him explode.
"If that was one of your Bloodpack friends, that's one less enemy to worry about." Punisher said walking in with Natasha and Deckard.
"Frank here left his post, Blade. He just disappeared on us." Natasha told her hybrid friend.
"It was impressive, though. Pulling a Dracula even though he's human again. Even though it was stupid." Deckard said.
"Where were you?" Blade asked Frank.
"Ran into a little reaper action, just like these bloodsuckers did." Frank answered.
"Oh yeah? How little, Punisher? We list a man. Priest. Want me to carve his name on your chest." Chupa said as he got in Frank's face.
"Unless you got a death wish, get the fuck out of my face." Punisher said as he walked up to Blade. "Let me show you what I found."
Frank led them to a dark room that he followed the reaper to. "I saw him moving into the aliy and followed him when I found him just like this. He was trying to crawl into the hatch and it caught his arm. Since then, he's been chewing on it like a coyote."
"Looks like it's already dying. I need to examine it as quickly as possible." Neyla said.
"Look for a lever. I want to see what's inside." Blade said as they found a lever and opened the hatch. He went inside and looked around, seeing a entrance to what was possibly Nomak's lair.
Meanwhile with Damaskinos
"They've made contact with the reapers." Kounen informed his master.
"Any losses?"
"One so far." He answered.
"It was not Neyla, I trust?" The ancient vampire asked.
"No. This is a dangerous game you're playing, Damaskinos. Blade is not a fool. He doesn't trust you at all and you're not going to be able to keep manipulating him." Kounen said.
"You worry too much. Reinhardt has informed me that events have unfolded as scripted."
"You've already lost one of your own. How many more are you willing to sacrifice?" Kounen asked.
"Everyone of them." He answered.
"Even your own daughter?" He asked.
"Yes, even her." He said with no hesitation in his voice as he went into his bloodbath chamber.
In the workshop cell
"Recognize this?" Blade asked Neyla showing her the stamp on the reapers uniform.
"The blood bank. He's one of the guards. But why is he dying? What's killing him?" Neyla wondered.
"Time. His metabolism is burning too fast. They need fresh blood every couple of hours or they'll start feeding on themselves." Blade said.
"What about Nomak? Should he have that weakness as well?"
"Nomak's different than the ones he has turned. It all started with him, It'll end with him." Blade said as he walked out of the cell with Neyla.
After sometime, they put the dead reaper on a medical table for examination. "Deckard, open the mouth." Neyla said.
"You gotta be kidding me." Deckard said.
"I'm not kidding. Open the mouth." Neyla told him.
"Blade, come on." Deckard said looking at his hybrid friend.
"Do it." Blade said.
Deckard reluctantly open the reaper's other mouth, which disgusted him a little. "Only the tongue carries the virus. It is injected through these nasty things. It has overdeveloped muscles, allowing for a much stronger bite then normal Vampires. Jaw structure remains the same, but without a mandible bone. Natasha, squeeze that tooth." Neyla said.
Natasha squeezed the tooth and some substance dripped on Neyla's finger. She then sniffed it. "Neurotoxin. Probably paralyzes victims while they feed." She said.
"From what we've learned, silver and garlic have no effect on these things. Sunlight's the only thing that that kill them." Natasha said.
"I know, but that's deadly to us as well. Let's see what else we can find." Neyla said as she grabbed a scalpel and began to cut the reaper open. She cut through the entire midsection and ripped it off, revealing the reaper's disgusting insides. "Look at that. The heart is encased in bone, but it looks like the sides are vulnerable."
"Good luck getting a silver stake through that, Raccoon." Frank said.
"Pull a leg off of a spider, it keeps moving on its own, trying to walk without a body attached to it." Neyla said as she put the blade on her finger.
"What the hell are you doing?" Natasha asked confused.
"Just want to test something." Neyla said as she cut herself and made her blood drop into the reaper's disgusting stomach. Suddenly the insides of the reaper began to move.
"Whoa. What the fuck is that?" Deckard asked.
"The brain is dead, but the body is still trying to feed. We have 6 hours before sunrise. Be ready by then." Blade told them.
"What happens at sunrise?" Asad asked.
"We hunt."
"In broad daylight?"
"You gotta be fucking joking." Reinhardt said.
"I don't think he knows how to joke, bloodsucker." Frank said.
"You're about one bullet away from seeing your family again, Castle." Chupa said.
"Better watch what you say about my family or else you'll be one silver bullet away from hell." Frank countered.
"Sunlight's the only edge we've got. They'll be more vulnerable then." Blade said.
"So will we." Asad said.
"Let's be clear about one thing: I don't expect everyone to make it back tomorrow. Remember to protect yourselves at all times." Blade said as he walked up to his room, with Neyla following him.
Later
Deckard and Natasha were in the workplace, testing a new weapon when Frank came in. "What are you two doing?" He asked.
"Well, when we were looking for you, we asked Stark to make a UV flash bang grenades." Natasha answered.
"Do they work?"
"That's what we're going to find out, Frank." Deckard said.
Meanwhile in Blade's room
Blade was drinking blood when Neyla came in. "Blade." She said, making him look at her as he finished.
"What is it?"
"I've heard about you from my father, but I think there's another part of your past that makes you hate Vampires so much, even though you're half vampire yourself. I know about Frost and that he killed a girl who was close to you." Neyla said.
"I don't want to talk about it our my past." Blade said, not wanting to remember his past right now.
"But if you tell me about your past, maybe I'll understand you better. I know there's more to you than what my father's told me. We may have taken different paths but we're from the same world." Neyla said.
Blade sighed as he took off his shades. He sat down on the bed as he began to tell Neyla about his past. From Frost turning Blade's mother, to his father's death, leaving the world he knew, meeting Noah Van Helsing and training under him, meeting Makoto years later and teaming up with her for a while before she died trying to save him from Frost and finally killing him to avenge every innocent person he ever killed, including his mother and Makoto.
When Blade was finished telling Neyla about his past, Neyla hugged him tightly. "I'm so, so sorry, Blade. I had no Idea your past was so tragic. If I'd known, I would've done everything I could to save Makoto." She said as Blade surprisingly hugged her back.
"It's alright, Neyla. Thank you for your concern. Did your father tell you anything about your mother before she died?"
"Well, he told me that he tried to do everything he could to save her from her sickness before I was born and that she said I meant the world to her when she saw me for the first time. I would give anything just to see her at least once." Neyla said as tears formed in her eyes.
"I'm sorry, Neyla, I really am." Blade said.
"Thank you. Well, I should get ready for the hunt." Neyla said as she stood up and went to the door.
"Wait. I want to see into your blood memories to see your life, Neyla. With your permission, of course." Blade said.
Neyla looked down and walked to Blade, tilting her head to the side. "Go on, Blade, know everything I've been through throughout the years I've lived." She said. Blade bit into her neck and drank her blood, seeing everything she's been through during the years that she's lived, including feeding on pure evil humans and avenging the innocent people the pure evil humans ever killed.
Blade let go of her and licked his lips to get the blood off of him. "So you really do have the same sense of justice that I do. I'm very relieved."
"Thank you, Blade. I don't need to see your memories to know that you have the same sense of Justice that I do, unlike those pathetic so-called "heros" that always spare the pure evil monsters just so they have someone to fight. Well, I should get ready. It won't be long before sunrise." She said walking out of the room
With Frank, Natasha and Deckard
How long have you known Blade?" Frank asked Natasha.
"Few years." Natasha answered.
"He doesn't seem to talk about the old days that much, or much of anything for that matter." Deckard said.
"Another thing he and I have in common. How did you meet him, Natasha?" Frank asked.
"On a mission for my former asshole of a boss. He sent me to infiltrate a terrorist plot. But what I didn't know, was that Fury didn't tell me that the terrorists were vampires and it almost got me killed if Blade hadn't showed up and saved my life. He tried to convince me to leave Shield but I didn't listen and stayed. Good thing I did, otherwise I would have never met you, Deck." Natasha said as she kissed her boyfriend.
"Better late than never I guess." Frank said as he prepared a UV Grenade. The grenade flashed with UV light for a seconds before the light turned off.
"Well, looks like we'll have to thank Stark the next time we see him." Deckard said.
"Wanna hear something, Frank? We think Blade sees you as a friend." Natasha said.
"And we think you see him as a friend as well due to your similar views on justice." Deckard said.
"Maybe I do see him as a friend. He didn't give up on me when he was looking for me, which I am grateful for." Frank said as they began to take a crate of UV grenades to the team, who were preparing for the daylight hunt.
"Let me ask one question: how the hell we gonna find these reapers?" Chupa asked.
"We won't have to, they'll come to us." Blade said as Neyla threw Chupa a spay device. Chupa spayed and smelled a very nasty smell.
"What is this shit?" He asked.
"Pheromones harvested from the reaper. Once they're in the air, the reapers will come running right to us." Neyla said. They went to Frank and the former Shield agents.
"First use your firearms to drive them back, then toss your UV grenades." Blade told them.
"This is the grand finale. We hotwired a couple of these things into a nitro vacuum. But we have to be real careful where to set them off." Natasha said.
"You guys are coming this time?" Neyla asked.
"Yeah. Blade's our friend and we don't leave our friends outnumbered in a fight." Deckard said.
"The grenades have a 10 second delay. Neyla, just remember to take cover." Blade told her as he put his hand on her cheek.
"I'll remember." Neyla said as she did the same before walking off.
"Blade, give me a hand." Frank called out.
Blade went to Frank and helped him with his weapons. "You and that Neyla are beginning to get a little cozy." Frank said.
"Maybe so." Blade said.
"Looks like you're getting confused about which side of the line you're standing on." Frank said.
"Those are real hallow words coming from a man who just spent 2 years running with the enemy." Blade said.
"And what the hell is that supposed to mean?"
"You know, Frank, there's an old saying: keep your friends close, keep your enemies closer. You might want to remember that." Blade said as he walked away.
Hours later at daylight
The team went back to the reaper's lair, opened it and went inside. "Blade, we should split into units." Frank told his friend.
Once they were inside, Blade gave them their places to search. Lighthammer, Verlaine and Snowman went In one direction. Blade told Natasha and Deckard to come with him, Neyla and Asad while Frank went wit Chupa and Reinhardt.
With Blade and his unit
They searched for the reapers in a tunnel and Blade noticed something. He told them to go on while he investigated, picking up what looked like someone's teeth.
With Frank's unit
They were searching for the reapers. Frank opened his UV light so he could see better but Reinhardt closed it. "We're trying to attract them, not scare them off." He said.
"Some of us can't see in the dark, you fucking bloodsucker. What am I supposed to do?" Frank asked before Chupa handed him special shades.
"Present from your raccoon friend, Soldier man, try to keep up." He said as he pushed the button on the shades, giving him night vision.
They went further until they were at a tunnel with water. "Hey, Castle." Reinhardt said as he snatched the shades off of Frank.
"What the fuck are you doing?" Frank asked.
"Ain't nobody here but you and us, Punisher." Chupa said before he grabbed Frank and threw him. "We lose a friend and Blade loses one." He said before he kicked Frank.
Frank got out a pheromone spray and set it while Reinhardt walked away to leave them alone. Reinhardt walked to another tunnel and put his hand in the sunlight before taking it out as the pain was too much for him. He then saw that a group of reapers were coming and opened the bomb pack.
With Blade
"I spotted a group in the east tunnel. I'm prepping the bomb pack." Reinhardt told Blade.
"Neyla." Blade said as he ran to catch up with the others.
With Neyla, the former Shield agents and Asad
They were walking into sewer water while looking for the reapers. Blade suddenly caught up with them. "Get out of there right now!" He yelled before a group of reapers bursted out of the water, pulled Asad under and began to rip him apart.
"No!" Neyla said as she tried to go under but Natasha and Deckard held her arms to stop her.
"Neyla, there's nothing you can do!" Natasha said as Blade came into the water.
"I'll attract them to me. You two get Neyla to safety. Move." Blade told them. They ran with Neyla as Blade prepared a UV Grenade. "10. 9. 8. 7. 6. 5. 4. 3. 2. 1." Blade counted down as he got out his sword and put the blade in the water, making the reapers come up as the grenade flashed UV light and he sliced through them with his sword.
Reinhardt pulled the lever to the bomb lever and stuck it in place as Neyla tried to tell him and Chupa to regroup. "Piece of junk." He said as he got up.
Chupa blocked a punch from Frank and punched him on the ground. "What the hell is this? You trying to stink me to death, Castle." He asked as he picked up his gun. Frank picked up the shades, put them on and saw a group of reapers heading straight for Chupa, making him smile evilly at the vampire.
With Neyla and the former Shield agents
They were preparing for an attack and got their weapons out. "Wait." Blade said as he came to them. "You okay, Neyla?"
"Yes."
"We gotta move, guys, cause we have a lot of company." Deckard said as they ran from a group of reapers.
With Frank
He watched as the reapers started to ambush Chupa, despite trying to fight them off. They pulled him down and began to feed on him and rip him apart as Frank slipped away from them into another tunnel.
Reinhardt then revealed himself. "Eat shit, you ugly motherfuckers!" He yelled as he shot at them and ran. "There's nobody left!" Reinhardt told Blade as he threw his shotgun away and drew his blade-guns. He started shooting as Blade, Neyla and the former Shield agents ran to him.
"Where's the bomb pack?" Blade asked.
"Had to leave it down that tunnel." Reinhardt answered.
"Give us the rest of the pheromones." Deckard said as Neyla did just that.
Blade and Deckard broke the device, sending the pheromones onto them. "Go down that tunnel, now! Blade said as they ran down the other tunnel. "You obviously do not know who you are FUCKING WITH!" Blade said as he threw another grenade into the water. As the reapers got closer to them, the grenade went off, flashing UV light and killing the reapers.
They ran through the tunnel that had the bomb pack as Deckard got out his guns and started shooting at the reapers. They got to the bomb pack and Blade tried to pull it down but it wouldn't move. "By the way, Blade. Did I happen to mention that the bomb lever is stuck?"
"Reinhardt, you bastard." Deckard thought as he wanted rip that vampire apart for putting his friends at risk, including Natasha.
Blade kicked the lever down, activating the bomb pack, counting down 10 seconds.
With Neyla, Natasha and Reinhardt
They were fighting the reapers, with Reinhardt shooting them with his guns. Neyla let Natasha use one of her swords when her guns ran out of ammo but no matter how many reapers went down, they just kept coming.
With Blade and Deckard
They were fighting off the reapers until the bomb pack finally detonated, sending UV light everywhere and spreading. Natasha saw the light coming their way and jumped on Neyla to shield her from the light, But not before she got deeply cut on the side something sharp.
When Blade and Deckard saw that the reapers were all deep fried from the UV light, they ran to help the others.
With Frank
He was still running through the tunnel. Surprised that no reapers were chasing after him. They must have been too busy tearing that bastard Chupa apart to notice him.
Suddenly, Nomak appeared behind him. "Punisher." He said. Frank tried to attack but Nomak stopped him. "Wait. You will survive this only to tell your friend, Blade about this ring and Neyla's mother." He said handing the human a ring from his hand. "About the truth. The whole truth, Castle." Nomak said as he whispered the entire truth into Frank's ear.
With Blade and Deckard
They got to Neyla and Natasha and were horrified at seeing them lay nearly dead. "Neyla."
"Tasha." Deckard said as they knelt down and pick their respective girls into their arms. "Is there anything you can do to save her?"
"There's only one way to save her. What about Natasha?"
"I've been saving this for the right moment. But I'd always hoped it would be on a better occasion then this." He said getting out a syringe containing his Mutant DNA. He placed it in Natasha's neck and injected his DNA into her as Blade cut his wrist with his sword and gave Neyla his blood. In a matter of seconds, their wounds began to heal as they opened their eyes, much to the Mutant and Hybrid's relief.
Blade looked up and saw Nomak standing across from them. But a few seconds later, they were electrocuted by stun bullets, along with Natasha, making them scream in pain before they fell Dawn. Neyla sat up and held her hand out before she passed out again.
"You've done a great job." Kounen said walking to them with Reinhardt, who had survived but the right side of his face was injured.
"Not that great, I'd say." He said before he kicked Blade in the face.
Frank was climbing up the ladder as guards circled around him and stunned him as well, knocking him out.
Later
Neyla woke up and was surprised that she was back home in her bed and her wounds were healed. "What is it, my sweet daughter?" The voice of her father asked sitting across from her.
"I have shamed you, father. I've Dishonored the family crest." Neyla said as she put her family ring on and went to hug her father. "Blade saved me. He's not the monster you've told me he is. He's very brave and very honorable."
"I understand."
"Is he still alive? Where are his friends? Are they alright?" She asked concerned about Blade and his friends.
With Blade
He woke up and to find out that his weapons were gone. "Where the hell are my weapons?"
"They took them. All of our weapons, even your sword. Someone's been keeping tabs on us from inside." Frank told him.
"Where's Deckard and Natasha?" Blade asked.
"Right here, Blade. Deckard told me that he gave me his Mutant DNA to save me. So now I have a healing factor like his." Natasha said.
"I'm sorry, Natasha. I wanted to save that as a birthday gift for you." Deckard said.
"It's alright, baby. At least now we can be together forever and not grow old." Natasha said as she kissed her boyfriend.
"Where are we?" Blade asked.
"A chamber deep in their lair." Frank answered.
"While you were unconscious, Frank told us everything. Damaskinos has been lying to us from day one." Natasha said.
"The Reaper Strain didn't evolve, it was designed." Deckard told Blade.
"By Damaskinos?"
"Yeah. Nomak told me everything. I saw him back in the sewer. He let me live so I could tell you." Frank said.
"Did he? How generous of him." The voice of Damaskinos said. Thanks turned around and saw that the ancient vampire was standing a few feet away from them, along with Neyla, was happy to see them all alive. "I brought you here to see the fruits of our labor." Damaskinos said as a machine opened, revealing what looked like vampire hearts.
"For years I've struggled to rid our kind of any weaknesses. And so recombining DNA was simply the next logical step. Nomak was the first, a failure. But in time, there will be a new pure race begotten from my own flesh. Immune to silver, soon even sunlight."
"We've got a question for you, old man. You wanna explain how Nomak got ahold of this ring and what really happened to Neyla's mother?" Frank said as he walked to where Reinhardt was and threw the ring at Neyla's feet.
Neyla picked it up and saw that it was the ring of her family. "What do you mean "what really happened to my mother" what is he talking about? And why is this ring the same as mine?" Neyla demanded, looking at her father.
"I didn't want to tell her but it appears I have no choice now. Unfortunately, Neyla's mother had the same "sense of Justice" Neyla had, so I killed her myself. She was going to turn into a vampire but I feared she would have made Neyla weak. I'd hoped to create a new pure vampire who could finally achieve my ultimate goal, I failed. As for the ring, I gave it to Nomak as a gift from father to son." Damaskinos explained.
Neyla was horrified at what she had heard. Her mother, who she wanted to see more than anything in the world was killed by her own father and he also experimented on her half brother just to create a new breed of vampire. Blade watched as Neyla ran out of the room, with Damaskinos following her.
"And I thought my daddy was a no good piece of shit." Reinhardt said as he shot Blade in the leg, along with Deckard and Natasha. He then knocked Frank to the floor and removed the device on his head, throwing it into the bloodpool. "Much better. Guards, take Blade down and bring the other 3 with me." He ordered the guards. A few of them tasered Blade while a few of them followed Reinhardt.
Later
2 guards were taking Blade into a room with a bed that had blades come out of it. Kounen was in there as the guards out him on the table. "We're going to harvest your blood, every drop of it. Then bone marrow, origins, everything. We'll find the missing key to creating Daywalkers." He said before he activated the blades, making them pierce Blade's wrists, ankles and chest.
With Reinhardt
He was looking at Blade's sword, taking a liking to it. "Nice. I wonder how many vampires he's killed with this thing? I'd really like to know." He asked.
"Not nearly enough, bloodsucker." Frank said.
"Be careful what you wish for, cause Blade's gonna kill you with that sword." Natasha said.
"You better pray while you can, Reinhardt. Cause I'm going to kill you for what you did." Deckard said.
"Keep talking, you guys. Just make me sending you all to the next world all the sweeter." Reinhardt said as he held his blade-guns to Frank's head. "Should have finished your girlfriend when she was unconscious back in the sewer, Mutant."
"You cut my Natasha? I'm going to kill you!" Deckard said.
"Not if I send you to the next world first." Reinhardt said.
"Been there, done that. Do your worst, chickenshit. We'll settle up after." Frank said as he secretly got out of the handcuffs, along with Natasha and Deckard.
With Neyla and Damaskinos
Neyla ran all the way to the room as tears fell from her eyes. "What else should I find out, father? I trusted you with my men, my will, and with my life." She said to Damaskinos, who walked in front of her. "You sent us out there. You sent me to die. You killed my mother and experimented on your own son just to create a new breed of vampire. Is that all I really am to you? Just another one of your failed experiments!?" Neyla asked before Damaskinos suddenly put his hand around Neyla's neck.
"Make no mistake, Neyla. Nomak, your mother, even you mean nothing to me when measured against the ascendancy of our race. Who do you think God really favors in the web? The spider or the fly?" Damaskinos asked.
With Blade
"Nomak." Blade said weakly.
"What about him?" Kounen asked.
"He wants revenge on the people who… created him." Blade said.
"You may be right. But fortunately for us, he doesn't know this location." Kounen said confident.
"Now… he does." Blade said while chuckling weakly.
Suddenly, the alarm went off and Kounen looked at the monitors, which showed that Nomak was in the lair and killing any guards that tried to stop him with ease.
With Frank, Natasha, and Deckard
Reinhardt punched Frank and kicked Deckard and Natashawhen he heard the alarm go off and looked at the monitors, showing Nomak was killing all the guards.
Frank got up with Deckard and they punched and kicked Reinhardt, knocking him out. Natasha got Blade's armor, coat and sword as Frank got Reinhardt's blade-guns. They got inside the vent and crawled through it until they saw Kounen. Frank shot the human lawyer 10 times until he dropped dead. They got out of the vent and saw that Blade was bleeding to death on the table.
Deckard shut off the blades, making them go out of Blade as Frank walked up to his friend. "Come on, raccoon. Don't you even think about dying on us. You didn't give up on me and I won't give up on you. Blade, come on. We made a deal to honor Stan's dying wish together and I won't do it without you." Frank said.
Blade opened his eyes and looked at Frank. "B-blood."
"He needs blood, Frank. We have to get him into that bloodpool now." Natasha said.
With Nomak
He had just finished feeding on the last guard as he walked to the doors and opened them with his strength. "FATHER!" he yelled. He went to the second pair of doors,opening them the same way as he saw Damaskinos. "Father!" He said as the guards that were with Damaskinos started shooting at him as the old vampire ran for the elevator, with Neyla reluctantly following him. Nomak got through the last door before it closed as the guards bullets slowed him down briefly before he killed them all and ran towards the elevator as it closed. "Father!" He yelled as he pounded hard on the doors.
With Blade and his friends
They were taking Blade to the bloodpool as Reinhardt louded his gun and started shooting at them. The bullets hit Deckard and Natasha in the legs, making them drop Blade's sword and fall to the floor. "Frank, get Blade into that bloodpool!" Natasha said.
Frank grabbed Blade and threw him into the bloodpool as Reinhardt tried to shoot Frank, but his armor protected him. Reinhardt picked up the sword and started to walk away as Blade emerged from the pool, completely healed and back to full strength. "Where do you think you're going, pureblood?" Blade asked cracking his neck and knuckles
Some guards with tasers came into the chamber and Reinhardt told them to kill him. They all came at him and tried to attack but with Blade's full strength returned, he easily killed of of them, some with his hands and feet, some with a taser. When Blade killed the last guard, he stood in Reinhardt's face with a glare.
"Well, like my daddy said right before he killed my mom: want anything done right, you gotta do it yourself." He said as he swiped Blade's coat off his sword. "He also said-" Reinhardt tried to stab Blade but he caught the sword before it hit him and brought it up to his left shoulder.
"Can you blush?" Blade asked before he threw the sword into the air from Reinhardt's hand. Blade caught it and sliced Reinhardt in half lengthwise, making him split apart before ashing.
Blade grabbed his coat, put in on and put his sword away before starting to leave the chamber. "Hey, raccoon." Frank called out to Blade as he threw Blade's shades to him. Blade caught them and put them on, leaving the chamber as Deckard and Natasha walked up to Frank.
"Think we should help Blade?" Natasha asked.
"No. This is his fight, Nat. Besides, there's something else we need to do." Deckard said as he looked at the ugly vampire hearts. They aimed their guns at them, shooting them until they exploded.
With Damaskinos
The old vampire was moving as fast as he could to the exit to get to his helicopter before the emergency door suddenly blocked the exit. He turned around and saw Neyla. "I reset the security code. We're locked in." Neyla said.
"Are you INSANE! He'll kill us both." Damaskinos said.
"Maybe we will kill me as well, but I will at least be able to die with the knowledge that I avenged my mother." Neyla said.
Damaskinos looked to his left and saw that Nomak was walking right to him. "Father." Nomak said.
Damaskinos knew that if he didn't act quickly, Nomak would certainly kill him. He thought he could at least get Nomak to spare him and kill his ungrateful daughter if he said his words right. "All that had befallen you. It was a terrible tragedy, an unforgivable mistake. But you've returned to me." He said as Nomak was mere centimeters away from him. He put his hands on his son's shoulders. "We will find a cure. Take your rightful place by my side." Damaskinos then pulled him into a hug, which Nomak returned, seemingly forgiving him. "You are, after all a prince. Together we will conquer the world."
"If what you say is true, why does your voice tremble so, father?" Nomak asked, seeing through his father's lies. Nomak suddenly bit into his father's neck, biting off a chunk of flesh and making his centuries old dark green blood flow out of his wound as he staggered to Neyla. "I've spared you my fate. You will die. Out of this wound your blood, your life will flow." Nomak said as Damaskinos fell in front of Neyla's feet.
"Neyla." Damaskinos weakly said, trying to beg her to save him but she just backed up and took the ring off her finger, signifying that he wasn't her father anymore.
She watched as Damaskinos's head cracked and looked at Nomak. "So, what are your plans for me, half brother? Are you going to kill me or turn me into what you are?"
"I think that the second option is more appealing to me, since you are my half sister." Nomak said walking to her.
"You can try to turn me, but you'll have to do it the hard way." Neyla said getting into a battle stance.
Nomak suddenly grabbed her neck and opened his reaper mouth to turn her. "NOMAK!" He heard the voice of Blade say. He looked and saw the Daywalker. "Ah, Blade. This is the last chance I'll give you." He said as he knocked Neyla out and dropped her. "Join me or die." He said.
Blade jumped down from where he was. "HERE'S MY FINAL ANSWER!" He yelled as he plunged his sword into Nomak and kicked him into a pillar.
Nomak tried to break the sword handle off but found that it was unbreakable. He then pulled it out of him and threw it to the floor and looked at Blade. The two vampires ran towards each other and began their final fight, with both of them fighting evenly until Blade kicked Nomak into the pillar again. Nomak span around, put his hand into Blade's face before the Reaper sent Blade crashing into a wall. Blade got up and called upon his full strength, his abilities increase to their full power. He took off his coat and rush at Nomak. With his strength and speed at their peak, Blade managed to get a few punches and kicks on Nomak before he grabbed him and began to squeeze him, but Blade elbowed him and got out of the grip before Nomak kicked him into the elevator doors. He then walked up to Blade and pulled him up. "It's not over yet!" Nomak yelled before he threw Blade a few feet away and jumped on the hybrid, elbowing him I the chest 3 times before jumping really high and went to squelch Blade's head with his foot. Blade rolled out of the way before Nomak landed and tried to get back up but Nomak grabbed him by the waist and started to squeeze Blade to death before Blade used his thumbs to push Nomak's eyes, making him let go. Blade punched and kicked the reaper multiple times before throwing him on the floor and breaking his right arm, making him yell in pain before Nomak flipped over him, grabbed Blade's head, set his arm back and punched Blade's head. Blade broke free and swapped-kicked Nomak, trying again 3 times before Nomak grabbed his ankle and threw him a few feet away. Nomak tried to push one of the pillars on Blade but he rolled out of the way as it fell.
Blade looked and saw his sword as Nomak walked up to Blade. "You should have joined me, Daywalker. We could have ruled the world together. But now I'll just have to settle for making you one of my slaves as I finish my father's job." Nomak said as he picked Blade up and opened his reaper mouth. Blade suddenly grabbed Nomak's mouth and forcefully closed it, headbutting him twice before he put his sword through Nomak's side, shoving it in and piercing his heart.
Blade kicked Nomak away and fell to his knees as Nomak crawled to the pillar he destroyed. When he was leaning on it, he looked at Blade's sword and felt the agonizing pain inside of him. "It's strange. It hurts. It hurts no more." He said as he shoved the sword further into him, making him roar in pain as blue flames engulfed him, completely destroying him.
Blade retrieved his coat and sword and walked up to Neyla, who opened her eyes. "Blade, you're alive. I'm so glad you're alive." She said as she hugged him.
"I'm glad I got here in time, Neyla. And it appears that you got your revenge on your "father"
"He's not my father anymore. As far as I'm concerned, I stopped being his daughter when I found out that he murdered my mother." Neyla said as Blade helped her up.
"Let me take you outside, Neyla. There's something I must show you."
"But daylight is almost here and you know I can't walk in the sun like you can." Neyla said.
"I'm not so sure of that. Let me show you." Blade said as he opened the emergency doors and walked with Neyla the helicopter pad. They waited until the sun came up and to Neyla's great surprise, she wasn't burning and felt the warmth of the daylight for the first time in her life.
"My God. The warmth, it feels so good. I'd only imagined what it would feel like to walk in the sun without fear. But how is this possible?" Neyla asked.
"My blood. When I gave you my blood to save your life, it must have given you the ability to walk in the sun. Frost had that ability before I killed him. Now it seems I've given that ability to you." Blade said as he turned Neyla to him.
Neyla suddenly hugged Blade tightly. "Oh, Blade, thank you so much. You've made my greatest dream come true." Neyla said.
"You're very welcome, Neyla." Blade said. Neyla then did something that Blade could never have been prepared for: she suddenly pulled him into a kiss. Blade was shocked at this, having never dreamed of finding love, let alone kissing someone. After a few minutes, he kissed her back. The kiss lasted for some time before they finally separated.
"Blade… I love you." Neyla said.
"I-I love you too, Neyla." Blade said as Neyla kissed him again. They heard someone clear their throat and saw Frank, Deckard and Natasha standing close to them.
"So, you love her, Raccoon? Not surprised." Frank said as he smiled.
"We knew something was going on between you two." Natasha said.
"Yeah. We all had a feeling that you two would hit it off quite nicely." Deckard said
"Let's deal with this later. I believe that Frank and I made a deal?" Blade asked.
"Stan's dying wish? Yeah. It's time for us to deliver on it. Neyla, what are you going to do now that your so-called family is all dead?" Frank asked.
"Well, I'm going to leave this country and never come back. All this place will do is just remind me of Damaskinos. But you were wrong Frank. Not all my family is dead. There's a female vampire in Budapest who I consider as a sister. She's one of the strongest vampires in the world and also what they call a "Death Dealer" and she told me that I could live with her and her coven if I wanted to. Blade, after you honor Stan and his dying wish, will you meet me there?" Neyla asked.
"Yes. I want to get to know the vampire you see as a sister. If she's as strong as you say, I might learn a few things from her." Blade said.
"Good. I look forward to introducing you to her. But for now I must think about everything that's happened on my own. I'll see you later, Blade, and you guys as well. Take care, my friends." Neyla said as she jumped off the heliport and ran, most likely to get transportation to Budapest, with her new love and friends watching her go.
"Well, we need to get going, too, guys. The Avengers need us." Deckard said.
"But if you either of you need us, we'll be there to help you." Natasha asked as she and her lover left to join the Avengers full-time.
A few days later In Seattle
Frank had found a good place for Stan's squad and had gotten the money to support his family. They had found Stan's wife and little girl's house and had covered their skulls up, not wanting to scare little Alice. "You ready, raccoon?"
"Yes. It's time." Blade said as he knocked on the door. After a few seconds, Stan's wife answered.
"Oh my goodness, who are you?" Stan's wife asked confused at seeing a humanoid raccoon in clothing.
"Don't worry, Miss. We're not going to hurt you." Frank said.
"We've come to give you something from your husband." Blade said.
"Stan? How do you know my husband?" She asked.
"It's a long story. Do you mind if we come in? I promise you that we won't hurt you or your daughter. You have our honest word." Blade said.
After thinking it over, she stood aside and invited them in. They sat down on the couch as little Alice saw them. "Mommy, who are they? Are they monsters." She asked as she hugged her mother's leg.
"No, sweetie. They're not here to hurt us. They came to tell us about daddy."
"Daddy? But I thought he went to a better place?" Alice asked.
"He did, little Alice. But before he went to that place, he told me to give you a message." Blade said.
"What message, sir?"
"Well, I was with him at the end. He saved my life before he went to a far better place. And before he went to be beside God and the angels, he said that he loved both of you with all his heart and that he would always be with you, in your hearts, watching over you until you're reunited with him in heaven." Blade said.
"He also wanted us to give you something to help support your daughter." Frank said as put a bag down and opened it, revealing millions of dollars in cash. "This money will help pay off all your debts and support your daughter for life."
"T-thank you, both of you." Stan's wife said as tears formed in her eyes.
"Here. These belong to both of you." Blade said as he got out Stan's tags and gave them to Stan's wife, who took them and hugged them to her heart.
Frank and Blade stood up. "Well, I think we should go now. We just wanted to honor Stan's last wish." Blade said as he and Frank walked to the door to leave but felt someone hugging them.
They looked down and saw Alice. "Thank you, sirs, for letting us know about my daddy. I'll never forget you." She said as Frank and Blade knelt down and hugged the little girl separately. Alice then kissed theirs cheeks.
"Goodbye, little Alice. Take care of yourself and your mother." Blade said.
"Stay on the straight and narrow, little Alice. Make your daddy proud." Frank said.
"Thank you both for coming. It really means a lot to us, and I'm sure that Stan would be proud that your fulfilled his last wish." Stan's wife said as she kissed theirs cheeks.
"You're both very welcome. We both hope that you both live a life of peace and blessings." Blade said as he and Frank exited the house as Stan's wife closed the door.
Blade and Frank got up to a rooftop in the city and turned to each other. "Well, I guess this is where we finally part ways, raccoon. There's still pure evil humans out there that need punishment."
"And I have business to take care of in Budapest. But if you ever need me again, call me with this device." Blade said as he gave Frank a device that would signal him if he were ever in need of help.
"Thanks, raccoon. Well, take care of yourself and send those vampires to hell." Frank said.
"I plan to. And you keep sending all the pure evil humans to hell." Blade said as he held out his hand. "Take care, Punisher."
"You too, Blade." Frank said as they shook hands and went their own ways to do what they did best: Avenge any innocent person that pure evil humans and vampires would kill.
There you go, guys, Blade 2 is finally complete. I think you all know where Blade will be heading next by the hint I gave. I talked with a friend and I'm going to write my own Underworld story, with Selene and an OC character being the main couple. Stay tuned and I'll see you all soon, guys.
