Let the Blood Bath Being Damien woke up around 8am with Ryan spooned up to him sleeping as Damien looked down at his sleeping lover and thinking how he got so lucky from this point on he would do anything to make him happy. Damien picked up his cell and calls Angelus's phone. "Hi this is Angelus I'm not here right now or on the other line please leave a message and a number and I will get back to you have a good day." Damien closes his phone thinks he never does not answer his phone something is wrong. Damien calls the tower. "Good evening thorn industries can I help you?" "This is Damien Thorn put me though to Angelus." "I can't do that sir he is in the med lab." "Then who is in charge?" "Well that would be bane." "Then put me though." "Yes sir." In the meeting room on the 200th, floor the phone rings. "Meeting room." "Yes I have Damien on line 1 for Bane." "Ok." "Bane picks on and pushes line 1. "Damien how is London?" "Was fine till I called now what's going? On what happened to Angelus?" "Well Kane is what happened he broke his back lucky for him Cody was walking in and stopped Kane from killing him." "Why I was not told of this." "Well Cody said it would rune your week away." "Bane you run things till I get back tomorrow and tell Cody to stop thinking this is the one thing I WOULD HAVE WANTED TO KNOW. Sorry I will take care of it tomorrow. Now what else is new?" "Well there is a Skyler that came looking for you right after the attack something about being the new slayer." "Have you met him?" "No sir Cody put him up in a hotel till you returned. Should I send for him and test him out?" "That would be good yes do that and tell what you think. And thanks for returning." "I am always at you side Damien." "Call me after the test and keep Cody from doing anything stupid it's good he stopped him from killing Angelus but not calling me was stupid." "I will and I'll send for Skyler see you tomorrow." "See you later ciao." As Damien lifted the spell that was letting Ryan sleep though the yelling he laid back down next to Ryan and slowly went back to sleep him self. Bane sent a car for Skyler and got the training room ready for Skyler's testing. The car arrived with Skyler an hour later and Bane was waiting for him in the lobby. "Good morning Skyler I'm Bane." "Just Bane?" "That's all you need to know right now." "Ok so what is it that I am doing today?" "Well I am going to run you though some test to see what level you can fight at and to test you power levels." "Ok I guess." "Well let's get started." Bane led him to the elevator and took him to the 150th floor the whole floor was just one big room with a control booth at one side. "Ok I am going to start you at level 1 and work up from there and let me know when you had enough ok." "I will." Bane walked over to the booth and started the program level one vampires. The room now had 5 vampires. "Ok Skyler take them out as fast as you can." Skyler took out the 5 in just under 4 minutes level 2 started 10 vampires level 2 ended in the same time 20 minutes later level 15 Skyler was now fighting cyborgs 8 for them in fact this one took about 10 minutes to finish level 16 was 10 cyborgs and he knocked off 2 minutes from the last time finishing this round in 8 minutes 35 minutes later level 50 5 dragons. Bane was looking on thinking this kid is good he don't play this kid could very well be better then Zane and he was human. An hour later level 75 Skyler finally said enough not because he could not go any more but he wanted a break based on the fact he had to use the restroom since the car showed up before he had the chance to go before he left. "Ok Skyler that should give me enough to get a good reading on you skills go up to the meeting room on the 200th floor and there is a restroom there and I'll join you shortly. Skyler headed up and did his duty and waited for Bane. A few minutes later Bane walked in the room with a folder and sat down. "Well good news kid your power levels are far more then I thought your skills are just higher then Cody's in his hard suit but with I do see room to grow as it looks you never hit your peak which spooks me a bit I'm glad your on our side." "So I thought I just wish I could understand that pain I had when I was training." "Well I have seen the powers that be give someone the gift and it looks like they picked you. It looks like you have some magic ability have you felt any thing like a connection to any thing?" "Well I can feel the energy around me." "Good that means you could use energy based attacks we will start on that after lunch is there anything else?" "Well I feel a connection with I can't tell you just what cause I don't know I just only hear the name Mettron." Bane sat there going white and sunk in to his chair. "The planet eater and eternal dragon the controller of fate." "How do you know that?" "I know him he was in the war with us I think this war just took a turn for the good. Look lets not do anything till Damien gets back he can tell you more about that." "Ok I guess I will go back to the hotel and wait then." "No there are guess rooms on the 299th floor I will send for your stuff come with me." Bane led him the elevator and entered the pass code for the 5th sub level. When the elevator stopped and opened the sign said magical weapons. "Ok we are going to fit you with a weapon that works with you." He walked up to the door and opened it to a room filled with swords and other weapons that have thought to been lost. "Ok let's see I know the bright sword." He walks over and picks up a sword and hands it to Skyler. "Ok pull it out and let's see if it takes to you." Skyler pulls the sword out and the sword glows white then returns to normal. "I am the bright sword and you are the one I have been waiting for." "Good it's yours to command now one of the things it can do is be called for set it down and call it." Skyler sat the sword down on the table in front of him and walked away. "Bright sword." The sword appeared in his hand ready for combat. "Great now can you fire a gun?" "Yeah I was on a target shooting team with my dad." "Good lets go to weapons and get your gun and your permit." "Permit so like I can carry it on me at all times?" "Yes and it's to be on you at all times." Skyler picked up his sword and they got back on the elevator and headed for the 1st sub level. "Ok do know what you want or would you like to look around." "Well let's see how about a 50cal desert eagle?" "Got them custom made recoilless semi and full auto modes 30 round clips." "Wow but what if I need more ammo?" "Well we have a mag strip that fits on your back here I will show you." Bane puts one on it has the holsters on it as well he picks up a desert eagle and pushes the button on the strip and the mag holder slides down and he takes the empty gun and pushes the mag in the gun. "There it's ready to fire now the shells are armor penetrating explosive tip with silver and garlic one shot to a vampire and that's it for them. "Cool ok I want two of them." Bane set him up and they went up and showed him his room the room was like a small house it had a leather couch and chairs a 47in TV the bedroom had a super king size bed and a walk in closet and a balcony off the bedroom that over looked the city. Bane told Skyler where to find everything in the building and if he wanted to go out, he could take a car from the garage there is a cad in the car if you want anything if you go out don't worry about the money its on Damien. ******** Somewhere in the city. "Cody he has stopped." "Where?" "Just out side of town at an old lazion warehouse." "Ok Super Pursuit Mode time I end this." Karr changed from cruse to Super Pursuit Mode heading for the old lazion warehouse. When they got to within a half mile, Karr ran a scan of the building. "There is more then just Kane in there." "So." "Just letting you know you don't have to bite my head off." "Just get me in there." Karr goes though the wall sliding to a stop Cody steps out. "Kane lets end this." "Slayer, you really think you can stop me now." "I know I can now bring it." Kane did not wait he changed at Cody has Cody used the boosters on his suit to jump over him as Cody turned in mid air he was hit in the back by a arrow and leaded hard on the floor. Before he could get up he was hit again from the side by another arrow and then again, from the other side as to other people step out of the shadows Karr tries to drive in to save him but is held back by a force shield. "Not so tough now are you summers." "I'm going to kill you Kane." Cody got up just has warning messages started to come across his screen in side his helmet left arm 55% damage right arm 60% damage back 70% damage suit systems failing shields down life support down back up power failing. The suit opened up with its last amount of power Cody moved fast to get out of the suit as it blew up sending shards all over the room. Kane ran over and grabbed Cody and tossed him in to the wall like he was a rag doll then picked him up again and then in to the other wall. Cody pulled his gun just as he was grabbed again and shot Kane in the chest just as 3 arrows went though his back the force shield came down and Karr drove in to save him just has Kane dropped him and backed away 3 more arrows coming right for him got blocked by Karr Cody used what little he had to drag him self in the passenger side as Karr took off going back in to Super Pursuit Mode running though another wall on the way out heading for the tower. "That little shit shot me what the fuck was he thinking." "I had him and you, you bitches let him get away." "Sorry but your little shield went down when he shot you." A blond woman stepped up and said rather bluntly. "Oh fuck you angel." *********** Damien, Ryan, and Ethan were boarding the jet getting read to head home a day before they would have left. "Damien why do we have to go home so soon?" "Well Cody fucked up and Angelus got hurt." "Sigh, I was so enjoying this time with you away from the problems away from the attacks away from everything." "I know my love once I get this mess taken care of we will plan another trip. What do you think about Paris?" As Damien was talking with Ryan Ethan was already out after being out partying all night before with his head phones on blasting Goth metal Damien looked back before starting pre Flight and thought god how can he sleep like that. with pre flight done Damien started to take off and kicked it up to Mach 12 the sooner he was back the sooner him and Ryan could take there trip to Paris. It was about a 4-hour flight back at that speed and landed at thorn field and started unloading the plane in to the Lexus. Ryan brought the last bag out and put it in the trunk before shutting it then walked over and put his arms around Damien's waist and leaned in for a kiss as Damien kissed him back they pulled back after the kiss and Damien said. "You know if things go right things could get fun tonight." With a slight grin on his face. "Really and what did you have in mind for fun Hun?" "I don't know maybe a little rub down some foreplay and maybe I am ready to give my self to you." Ryan just looked at him stunned that it could finally happen then he grabbed Damien and kissed him with such passion that of both them started to feel each other up but Damien pulled back. "Hold up tiger we have a lot of time for that I want to get this shit taken care of first so there is nothing holding me back ok love." "I know, god your so sexy I just can't keep you out of my mind I love you so much." "I know the feeling and I love you to." They got in the car and Ethan got in the back and fell out again well I guess that what you get for partying for 18 hours. On the way back Damien and Ryan just talked about there trip and how much fun it was to just forget what had happened just the week before the drive back only took about 2 hours Damien pulled in to the garage. "Ethan...Ethan... ETHAN!" "HUH! Oh ok I am awake." "Just go to bed ok." "You can say that again dad." Damien and Ryan got there bags out of the trunk where has Ethan just snapped his fingers and sent his bags to his room then poof he was gone and in his room. Damien and Ryan got on the elevator and went up to the penthouse to put there bags up before Damien had his meeting with Skyler. "Babe can I sit in on this meeting?" "Sure you can I want you to get use to all the guys on this team." As Damien turned to head for the door, Ryan steeped in front of him grabbing his face and dragging him in to a big kiss. "You know: kiss: I won't get anything done: kiss: At this rate." "I can't help my self sometimes your just so hot I just can't hold back." "Well love you are to but this has to be done." "Sigh, I know lets get it over with." Damien and Ryan went down to the meeting room where Skyler and Bane was sitting waiting for them to arrive. "Skyler Mandrake nice to meet you I'm Damien Thorn and this is Ryan Taylor." "Hi good to met both of you." Ryan leaned in and whispered in Damien's ear. "My god he is hot." "Yes he is why do want him?" Giving Ryan a playful push "No why would I when I have you?" "Sorry, ok well I see bane went ahead and got you set up." "Yeah he did and did the testing." "Well Bane lets see the paper work." As Damien looked over the paperwork, his eyes got bigger and bigger and on the last page, his mouth fell open. "Oh my god Bane is this right?" "Yes sir I would have not believed it myself if I had not seen it." The phone in the meeting room rang. Have "Hello, yes, ok Matt I'll be down." "Well that was Matt Karr brought Cody in sans suit but with arrows in his back." "Damien I want to go." "Ryan I don't know if you want to see the mess he is in?" "I do please I have to see it if I am going to get use to what is going on around here." "Fine come on." Damien and Ryan headed down to the med lab Where Cody was in a bed next to Angelus who was still out of it. "Looks like you got your self in a mess kid." "Damien I'm sorry I went after Kane he had your ex stepdaughters with him I may have been able to take him had they not been there I'm sorry." "Its ok kid I know how much you hate him for taking your family away from you and for turning Buffy but you did the right thing by putting her down before she went in to the change. A slayer turned vampire is not a good thing you just rest up and get better ok." "Sure, Damien I want Karr teamed with someone he is too big of an advantage to us right now." "Ok I'll see how he takes to Skyler just get better." "Thanks." Damien walked over to Angelus and looked down at his friend. "Old friend you get better soon you're my best friend I can't lose you. Listen to me I am talking to the vampire lord like he is going to die we know that wont happen take your time and heal." Damien went over to the lab to talk to Karr Matt was working on upgrading his weapon systems. "Hey there Karr how are you doing?" "I have been better Damien I trust your trip went well." "Yes it was great, I want to ask if you would like to team with a new driver till Cody gets better it was his request?" "Well let me meet him or her first I don't need someone trying to change the way I am." "Ok I will have him come down you may like him." "We will see." Damien went over to the phone and called up to the meeting room to have Skyler sent down to the lab. A few minuets later Skyler arrives. "You asked for me?" "Yes Skyler I want to you to meet Karr. "Hello Skyler I am the Knight Automated Roving Robot or Karr." "Nice to meet you Karr." "Now Skyler the main reason for this is since Cody is out of action I thought it would be good to see if you can work with Karr." "Well if Karr would like to work with me I see no problem with it." "So it doesn't shock you to know he has his own personality." "After seeing this place nothing would shock me in here." "Good I will let you too get to know each other good day." "Later Damien." 12 Hours later "I love you so much" "So do I Ryan and I don't know why we held back this long." "Well I think you said you want to take your time." "If I ever say that again slap me ok." "As hard as I can love." "I just hope this was right I mean to do it now." "Damien it was you have no idea how long I waited to give my self to you I love you that much" "And I you Ryan I don't know what got in to me we should have done this a long time ago it's I love you so much Ryan that I wanted it to be the best." "It was I don't think I know any one else I would have wanted more then you." As Damien and Ryan lay there holding each other and kissing there was other plans being formed to take down Damien and his team. Now that his ex stepdaughters are working with Kane thinks would get harder and the battles more fierce and with Angelus out of action, this put him and his team at a disadvantage. Will Angelus get back in to action soon enough to even out the odds what will happen next. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for reading if you liked this story please email me and let me know ethanthorn@gmail.com
